I love a good spreadsheet too!

Poly good luck for tomorrow...

4+3 (soooo small!)

fancyacupoftea · 29/04/2014 20:50

Poly and Treacle good luck for tomorrow! Really hoping everything is good for the scan Treacle and then you can relax a bit!

Tilly28 · 29/04/2014 21:10

Love the spread sheet have added mine! :-)

I told head and deputy today, had a meeting all about next year and just didn't feel I could lie about it. They were really grateful for the heads up and have promised to keep it confidential although iv said il tell the other people on the SLT as it makes it easier for them when discussing classes etc! :-)

4+0 today! :-) Love reading all the diff info on the apps iv downloaded about what's happening! Can't quite believe it tbh it just doesn't feel real yet!

Treaclepie19 · 29/04/2014 21:13

Thanks fancy :)

Aww tilly, bet it's a weight off your mind.

Good luck poly :)

Tilly28 · 29/04/2014 21:15

Definitely treacle it's nice someone knows it makes it feel real! :-)

Good luck for tomorrow poly and treacle! I might have to try and persuade dp to pay to have an early scan although I'm not sure he'll be convinced!

Treaclepie19 · 29/04/2014 21:24

Thanks :)
Yeah we were going to pay if I didn't get an early scan. Going out of my mind haha.

Starbright24 · 29/04/2014 21:29

Good luck with scans treacle and poly.

I wasn't going to tell anyone at school for at least a month - thry've already told us next years places though.

Twins!!!? Last 2 cycles I had real bad ov pain on both sides Hmm

fancyacupoftea · 29/04/2014 21:34

Defo twins starbright!

Gosh Tilly that must have felt so weird telling school! I was going to wait a few weeks to tell mine. Either that or just arrive back in September with a bump. SURPRISE!!!

Tilly28 · 29/04/2014 21:37

Yes it did feel strange just saying the words "pregnant"! Ideally I wouldn't have said anything either but I felt guilty and just thought it would be a weight off my shoulders! (which it was) :-)

Treaclepie19 · 29/04/2014 21:54

That's how I felt tilly :)

Teaching PE tomorrow, eek haha. 26 balls flying around the hall. Yaaaaaaaaaaaay.

I feel blue today. Ridiculously so, actually.

I’ve managed to convince myself that something is wrong and I’m going to end up having a missed m/c Blush

Made the decision last night not to have an early scan as we both agreed the worst thing would be to see a heartbeat now, but not at the 12 week scan. I’m wondering if that’s why I’m now feeling blue?

No reason to think there is anything wrong, except I’m still getting cramps although they’re not as bad as they were at 4 weeks. I haven’t had any bleeding at all. No full on m/s yet but almost constant nausea. Constipation, bloating, sore boobs, exhaustion all still present and correct.

I think part of it is the fact I have to tell a friend on Saturday and I’m scared. I don’t want to tell her but I’d completely forgotten we’re all going to another friends house for drinks and I can’t miss it (the other friend has just been diagnosed with an inoperable heart condition). I need to tell her because she’s going to guess if I don’t drink. If she knows, she can at least play along with me not drinking. I need to ask her not to tell her partner though because he’s a bigmouth and I can just see 100s of people knowing within days. Also, I run the risk of ruining our friendship if I don’t tell her (she won’t understand why I’m not telling her)

It’s just all very scary. I got really stressed out this morning and now the cramps are sharper.

sazzlehopes · 30/04/2014 14:28

Fancy - love your introduction and the stat list - have added my deets.

Chilly it is a long old wait to 12 weeks I know,mbut try your best not to stress about everything. Nothing you do or say will change the outcome. A missed mc is very rare so try not to worry yourself for no need. Every day you make it through is a day more than you are preganant - focus on the good which I know is easier said than done.

Treacle hope the scan goes ok today.

18+4

Tilly28 · 30/04/2014 17:17

Eeeek just got home and got first scan date through! I'm booked In for the 23rd June! :-) :-) very excited although am still going to try and convince dp an early scan around 8 weeks would be nice! Only thing that's bad timing is we have a family event on the 22nd and as I don't live close it would have been a nice time to share the news.

Hope the scan went ok today treacle!

Starbright24 · 30/04/2014 18:51

Scan date already tilly ? Wow. Think it's time to phone doctors tomorrow.

Treaclepie19 · 30/04/2014 19:02

Thanks everyone.
The scan couldn't show much as predicted lol. The sac is in the right place but too early to see anything else. They've taken my blood and I have to go back Friday to have it done again to compare the hcg. I sort of tried to keep positive but seeing parents was hard as they were just like oh, you couldn't see anything???

MundayCakes85 · 30/04/2014 19:02

Evening all, after eating far too much chocolate after my night shift (and the bacon and egg mcmuffin that baby needed on my way home this morning) I'm cooking a nice healthy chicken and veg roast tonight.
Hope everyone is enjoying the sunshine x

Treaclepie19 · 30/04/2014 19:03

That's exciting tilly :)

Sorry you're feeling down chilly :(

Tilly28 · 30/04/2014 19:31

Yes starbright it came through so quickly! I only rang midwifes on Monday. Still waiting on the midwife to call to arrange my booking in appointment though!

Trying to persuade dp that we should book a private scan around 8 weeks as it seems so far away to wait until middle of June! :-)

Hope far gone do you think you are treacle?

Treaclepie19 · 30/04/2014 19:42

I'm 6 weeks so should be able to see something bit from when I think ovulation was I think I'm really about 5 + 3.

PolytheneGirl · 30/04/2014 19:43

I'm feeling sooooo guilty and such a fraud! I went shopping with my DM today and she insisted on buying me a few clothes. It was hard enough spending the whole day with her and not spilling the beans and now I just feel really guilty but I couldn't refuse her kindness without letting on something was going on. Gggaaaahhh I just wish the next 5 weeks would fly by!

Glad your scan went well Treacle.

Tilly wow, that was quick. I hope all mine gets sorted that quickly!

Treaclepie19 · 30/04/2014 19:54

Aww poly, these things have to be done. Although I have told my parents haha.

I'm not sure it did go well really, everyone keeps saying I shouldve seen something.

PolytheneGirl · 30/04/2014 20:11

Awww sorry Treacle. I'm sure if there was anything wrong they would have been more worried. 6 weeks is very early and you might be a few days behind what you think. Fx everything is ok Thanks

PolytheneGirl · 30/04/2014 20:16

Treacle I've just been reading and it seems some people don't see a heartbeat until 8wks+. So don't panic yet. Did you have an internal scan? I hate them!

Treaclepie19 · 30/04/2014 20:32

Thank you :) Yeah I know that really... I'm pretty sure I did ovulated late so maybe that's why. They did an external and said they wouldn't see more internally.

I was confused :/

Treaclepie19 · 30/04/2014 20:33

Oh and I should say they couldn't even see a yolk sac but he said its too early from looking at the sac.
