First appointments and scans here we come, jan 2015 thread #3

[Dec2013mummy]

So exciting all the scans that are booked over the next few weeks...

The stats

Hope that works?!

Oh Linda, I really hope it's ok. everything crossed for you

The hospital just called - my bloods came back with low blood sugar. They want me to go back for another blood test. I'd eaten a big meal about 45 mins beforehand so it shouldn't have been low. This happened to anyone else?

Hi everyone
i have another scan booked at 11.15 tomorrow bleeding started up again and been getting a really bad pain on my left side,i phoned epu today so they have booked me in.I'm trying to be hopeful but this is how 2 of my m/c started
sorry to hear your going similar linda

fx for you both linda and gingy - I hope things settle down and that all is okay xxx

Oh Linda and gingysmummy so sorry to hear this hope all is ok xx

Just had to get off tube to vom...really hope the extra nausea is due to bug and will go soon, can't do 3+hrs of commuting otherwise, will never get to work lol

Welcome vivipru......

looby soft play anytime is my idea of hell but your experience sounds horrendous!

fancy - I had the opposite with DS - high blood sugar and had to go for a glucose test. It came back clear though. I'm sure they'll be able to prescribe you something or give you some diet advice to help combat it.

Thanks Mel.

All the best for you Linda & gingy.

Hope all is ok Linda and gingy
Had my 'early bird' appointment with midwife. She was lovely and really reassuring. Confirmed I'm high risk because of high blood pressure so will have to be consultant led and induced at 40wks if baby hasn't arrived.

I have everything crossed for Linda and gingy.
I have been trying to get through to EPU all day. Dr told me to call them to book a reassurance scan around the7/8 week mark. They have a system where you call, leave a message and they get back to you - still waiting. I will be under consultant care too because of my history.

linda & gingy fx for you ladies that all is well with those little beans.

Linda and Gingy Keeping everything crossed for both of you...

fancy are you a teacher?

Yes MrsCK - along with a ton of others on the thread! We're everywhere...

Sorry you're worrying again Gingy. Hopefully both you and Linda will be absolutely fine. Thinking of you both

Ah brilliant, what do you teach? I teach Science...not really sure when to tell my school either...they will be doing timetabling for next year soon and don't want to be given vital classes if I'm not going to be here! Is it your first?

Arghhh MrsCK another teacher! Who's going to teach all the kids next year when you are all off on mat leave, lol

Fancy, Linda & gingy fingers crossed for you all!

I had my first chat with the doctor today and told her about my cramping and slight bleeding. She's sending me for a scan tomorrow morning to rule out an ectopic pg and see if bean is happy... Sorry of sh**ng myself, fx

Welcome to all the new BFPs on the January bus!
Crossing all my fingers for linda and gingy

Hope you are all having a carb-tacular day with minimal blowing of chunks!
Xx

I teach a specialist subject at secondary - don't really want to say which in fear of outing myself!
Back from the hospital - she told me to switch all the carbs I've been craving for healthy food and to have 6 small regular meals a day. Bloods round 2 back tomorrow!

Fingers crossed for scan tomorrow Haquoi!

Good Luck at your scan Haquoi...Is cramping normal in early pregnancy? I still am getting the odd twinge here and there. (Sorry for so many questions...obvious I'm a newbie!)

Fancy understand about not wanting to give away too much!

Thanks everyone, I'm totally exhausted don't know if it's pregnancy or worry related. Feel like crawling into bed but I'm a beaver leader so have the joy of that for 2 hours tonight

I bloody hope they're normal MrsCK as I've been getting them since before I got my BFP! I asked the midwife yesterday though and she said if they're twinges then it's fine but if it ever feels like period pain then to contact them. Mine have all been more localised than period pain.
I forgot to comment on you wondering about telling the head! I told mine last week and glad I did as it will be an arse replacing me. I think if you don't think it will be an issue though then you could hold off for a bit. You're right about the exam classes though - Autumn term is always the busiest in some ways so having as little as possible might be better. Plus a change of teacher might mess them up a bit!

Hmmm that's what I thought...I also think know it will be hard for them to find a replacement for me, which I hadn't thought of before really! Probably better to let the head know sooner rather than later so they can think about it.

Glad the twinges seem to be normal! I am such a worrier, worry about everything! I have a MW apt next Friday so will no doubt ask her loads of questions!!

I have a scan date, it's the 11th June I will be 7+3. I've been getting wee twinges to, mostly in my groin area.
