Keeping my seat warm for when I'm back.

Hope your scan went well mademoiselle x

thanks for the new thread Poly - just marking my seat!

barmy sorry you are having a rough time - think there is a thread somewhere about terrible ms and hyperemesis too if it turns out to be that. But I remember someone on the Oct thread really struggling with ms and all the different tablets she took to try and control it. It does seem to let up after 12 weeks but I appreciate that is a heck of a long way off!

I like the idea of a FB group - the oct thread has one but there is so many people on there I haven't joined as I just can't keep one up, but I'd like a dragon one! Lets all get a bit further along and then we can set it up!

sazzlehopes · 02/06/2014 11:32

PS madem hope your scan was ok x

lindamagoo · 02/06/2014 11:45

Thanks for the new bus Poly Smile

I'm feeling relatively normal today, no heartburn or ms so far and boobs only slightly sore Smile

MademoiselleG · 02/06/2014 11:49

Hello all! Thanks for the new bus poly , you rock! Hope the day proceeds to be less manic!

Soooo...all is well!! Heartbeat, little stumpy limbs, something that looks like a cord forming...the lot! PHEW! They couldn't find a cause for the bleeding either, but confirmed it's totally normal and to be expected. She also confirmed I ovulated from the left ovary (I knew it, bloody painful!) and I'm back to my original dates minus 2 days, so I'm 8+6 when previous scan had me at 8. fancy take note, I got my week back!! Wink

I'll try to attach a picture. I can't recognise a thing on it but 'olive' is well.

Thank you all for your positive thoughts. I'm glad I trusted my instincts but those 2 hours in the waiting room were long!

I ate onion in my salad again last night and had terrible heartburn/indigestion all night! Not fun.

Got to drop DS at nursery school then pop into town, dash back to get DS from school and get to my parents' for tea. I'm knackered already! Might have to treat myself to a Belgium bum in Greg's!

Yay for the scan Made, the pic brought a little tear to my eye, so glad all is well Smile

fancyacupoftea · 02/06/2014 12:14

Woohoo! Phone battery almost dead from constantly refreshing to see an update from mlle! But there it is - chunky little olive!! And very pleased you got your days back.

I'm bored and already eaten my lunch.

Tilly28 · 02/06/2014 12:15

Yey! Congratulations mademoiselle what a lovely scan picture! :-)

CagedMango · 02/06/2014 12:33

Hi ladies - I think it's time for me to get back on this bus. I've been having such a bad time with ms I can barely move. My lovely DH has been doing everything! I've added myself to the stats page.

Glad to see your scan went well mademoiselle! I've got my 12 week scan next week-getting nervous now though!

Thanks for the new bus. Lovely Scan Mademoiselle

MelMc73 · 02/06/2014 12:46

Yay.....another new bus! hope all well after the weekend. I haven't been on due to being away and lack of signal on phone. Great scan pic mademoiselle.

In other news.....feeling totally yuk today again.

barmybunting · 02/06/2014 12:52

Lovely scan Madmoiselle, I am very pleased to see that!

Have taken the tablets from the doc and amazingly, not been sick since so they have kicked in quickly! I feel hellish, but it so so nice not to be attempting to throw up! I don't how the heck it feels like this at 17 weeks, I struggled with ms before but have never felt that bad and I honestly thought it was going! Who cares, as long as the tablets work.

Caged, if it is bad, go to the dr. I wish now that I hadn't struggled through to let myself get in this state and had gone earlier.

EnglishGirlsReturned · 02/06/2014 13:03

Marking my place!

Sorry you're feeling so rotten Barmy! Hope the tablets work their magic!

Made- glad your scan went well!! Still 9days til my next one! Draiiiinnn! Just want to know if my little one is fighting away in there!

I am reading all posts even if I'm not posting myself too much. Smile

lindamagoo · 02/06/2014 13:06

Marking my seat next to Treacle on the new bus. Loving Olive, Mlle! Xx

chillychicken · 02/06/2014 14:07

Hi all!

Had scan this morning, was so nervous. All ok though. Strong heartbeat and a super wriggly baby. Took ages for the sonographer to manage to get all the measurements. I ended up apologising Grin One minute the baby was on his tummy, then on his back, then on his side, legs crossed, uncrossed, arms behind head, arms in front of face, stretched out, curled in a ball. It went on and on and on Grin In the end she asked me to cough to shift the baby into a different position and finally she could measure the fluid on the neck and the length of the baby. Due date has been shifted forward to 7th December so I'm now 13+1! Seems like a massive shift from 12+4!

I'm still utterly convinced their dates are wrong as I know when I ovulated but I'm not going to argue - this now means the latest I'll have the baby is the 19th rather than 22nd so a bit further away from Christmas!

Have told a few people, and received lots of congratulations! Feels good to tell people. NT risk results should be back within 7-10 days if high risk, 3 weeks if low risk. Got to book midwife appointment for 3 weeks and then I have 20 week scan booked for 23rd July. Looking forward to going to the next scan with a bump Smile
