New thread ladies. I should really leave it to someone who can link the old one. Can someone add the edd list and whatnot? Or maybe we should start again now edds are changing after scan.

Yay for good scans! Grin
Who do you know magichandles?! Shock
Thanks Me23, glad it's not just me being 'fussy'. Good term infantilises. (I like words)
Sorry to be so brief! Rare day at work for me delivering training!

magichandles · 27/03/2014 13:08

Tak1ingchances - I used to work with her DH ages ago!

Yep any FB posts can only be seen by other group members on their feed as it's a closed group. When I make it secret the only difference will be that if someone was to nosy through the groups in your profile that Octoberfest wouldn't even show in the list. I've purposefully given no description of the group plus access is blocked to non members so if anyone noticed it they may just presume you're a fan of the Munich beer festival!
Thanks for the water birth feedback ladies, I'm definitely thinking it'd be a good option for me :)
So nice to hear of the good scans too!

musicalmrs · 27/03/2014 13:37

Hallo! May I join you all?

I've been a bit nervous to post, but I've had my scan today and am now slightly more convinced I'm pregnant!

Congratulations to all the others who have had good scan news today :)

binkybunny · 27/03/2014 13:47

Anyone else that had a scan today just too excited to work? I'm too giddy and have just been out and bought little grandparent photo albums to give to our mums for mothers day with the scan photo in. I now want to go back and buy the entire shop though or go home and start planning the nursery properly Grin

binkybunny · 27/03/2014 13:47

That's great news sparkle.

Binky I'm struggling to concentrate too, might not get much done this afternoon!

bythesea82 · 27/03/2014 13:57

Yey sparkle great news! Lovely good scan stories today.
Spoke to a grumpy person at EPU who just said wait and see nothing they can do, this is true but she could have tried to be nice! Was feeling more hopeful but cramps and bleeding back again, I think time has stopped! I guess it is just wait and see.
Keep the happy scan stories coming in Smile

ohthegoats · 27/03/2014 14:03

Haha, binkybunny - I gave my mum a mother's day card with a scan photo in, and just wrote "look, grandchild number 3". I gave it to her and told her to open it straight away, she read it, looked at the picture and said 'oh that's nice... let me get my glasses.. (wait of about 20 seconds).. oh, are you pregnant?'

Painful...

Bythesea have you an early scan at all or nothing?

FlipFantasia · 27/03/2014 14:24

Takingchances you have the same (gorgeous!) first name as my DD Smile.

I'll start posting in the FB group too once I've a chance. Liking seeing people's real names (though totally understand Me23 and Binky and anyone else being unable to join!).

Loving all the happy scan news!

FlipFantasia · 27/03/2014 14:26

Bythesea I'm so annoyed on your behalf you're not getting better care. Bleeding is so stressful Hmm. I'd be tempted to just go to a&e - ruling out something like an ectopic is more than a valid reason IMO. If they can't scan you they should be able to get the epu to get their act together. Thinking of you and hoping a scan shows a lovely little baby xx

Loulou888 · 27/03/2014 14:30

That's what I was thinking you need ectopic to be ruled out if it hasn't already. I suffered one last year but the epau unit were really good. Hence why I had a scan at 6 weeks this time to check baby is in right place. Speak to your gp they WILL refer you fx for you

Captainmcgraw · 27/03/2014 14:32

Lovely to hear all the positive scan news! I have another good news story to add. Saw happy baby again today and also the hematoma has got slightly smaller so they think there's nothing to worry about. Measuring 13+2 so due date is 30th September. Quite a few of us seem to be being pushed forward to September dates.

mum2kiss · 27/03/2014 14:34

bythesea my midwife told me any bleeding head straight to a&e. They will at least have to check you over and will most likely get epu to do it!

So my bro told my mum this morning that his girlfriend is pregnant too! So my mum gets 3 grandchildren this year! September, October and November due dates!

bythesea82 · 27/03/2014 14:35

Thanks for your grumping on my behalf Smile
I have had a scan previously, I am being followed up for a 9cm cyst which I have left from a miscarriage last November. I had a scan for that about 10 days ago so I know there was a heart beat and everything was ok at 9+3. I have another cyst scan on 7th April so I can see they think that's soon enough. It's just all a bit too familiar after mc last time. This pregnancy thing is stressful!

bythesea82 · 27/03/2014 14:36

Crossed posts, great news captain

Loulou888 · 27/03/2014 14:38

Go to a&e it's not good enough what's an extra scan appt to epau nothing! How frustrating for you x

Loulou888 · 27/03/2014 14:39

Another sept one! Lovely news captain

ldt87 · 27/03/2014 15:29

Hi all, anxiously awaiting my scan on Monday, loving hearing all the good news

Sparkle that's fantastic news! :-)

I'm enjoying seeing people on Facebook and will join in next week all being well xx

ohthegoats · 27/03/2014 15:30

Why are there so many of us being brought forward to September? I don't understand the science!

My 40th week according to scan dating ends on 27th September.
My 40th week according to when I conceived ends on 15th October.
My 40th week according to LMP ends on 1st October.

I'm trying to convince my boss that I'll be back at work on 1st September after the summer holidays, he would 'prefer' that I'm not, but it's not up to him. If I go off on 19th July when we break up for the summer, I'll be climbing the walls with boredom by 15th October. I was sort of hoping to work up until it becomes impossible - which I understand might be sooner rather than later - but with so many dates, it's hard to work out what I want to do, let alone what my boss should allow me to do.

ToffeeJungle · 27/03/2014 16:37

Just marking my place on the new thread!
I won't be joining the FB Group either so hope threads like these keep going.
So nice to hear of all the lovely good scan news, I have mine a week today- can't wait! Smile
Hope everyone is feeling ok.
