Mine today too ladypug and ginger. Good luck, it'll all be fine. Can't wait to swap pics later x

Hello, I'm a bit late but can I join the bus? I'm 10+3 today and have just had a scan and Harmony bloods today and can confirm I've definitely got a baby growing in there Smile.

This was my 3rd and final ivf attempt so I didn't want to join until I felt more positive about it working but it's finally feeling a bit more real after today's scan. I'm starting to feel excitedGrin (along with knackered, hungry, vommy, achey....!)

gingerbreadmam · 07/04/2015 16:31

had my scan. baby was awkward tho and not in a good position so i have no pic, well i do but not worth posting as can barely make baby out.

i have to go back friday see if its moved and can get all the measurements etc.

good news is saw heartbeat and was actually measuring ahead now (more in line with what i thought i was) so just awkward i think.

Ca55andraMortmain · 07/04/2015 16:56

Hahaha batfish I wouldn't recommend the HG diet- it gets results but it's a bit messy! Hooray for all the healthy scans! rhiannon yours is so clear, baby was just a wee blur in ours!

RhiannonElward · 07/04/2015 16:57

gingerbreadmam, congratulations on your scan, I'm always happy to admire scan photos, even really blurry ones, so by all means post them anyway :)

Welcome fabuluce! So happy for you after what must have been a long journey, it does feel more real after a scan and I'm definitely feeling like I'm going to have a baby rather than simply pregnant if that makes any sense at all.

Ladypug and Crazypuglady, thinking of you both and awaiting pictures to coo over :)

gingerbreadmam · 07/04/2015 17:13

wow rhiannon yours is so clear! how lovely. im back for mine friday 9.30 when i will be 13+2 according to todays so if i can get one as clear as that i will be over the moon.

will hold off on pics until friday as it really is hard to see anything on mine.

Toast85 · 07/04/2015 17:16

Mine is Thursday- anyone else's then too?

hi toast mine was ok thanks for asking. baby was in awkward position tho so no good pic. have to go back friday to try again.

Ladypug · 07/04/2015 17:23

Hi all, eeek! Baby is fine, very active! So excited! How do I post pictures on here? Back at work now but will post later if someone tells me how (or is it coz I'm on the app that I can't?) feel utterly overwhelmed as was convinced something was wrong! Had the blood taken too, was still in shock from the scan so managed ok with no faint! Hurrah! Congrats to everyone else too! Xx

Toast85 · 07/04/2015 17:25

Oh sorry ginger, had a quick read through and managed to miss your post! Oh well I guess having to go back means more time watching baby.

Rhiannon that's a clear set of pics! Beautiful :)
Looking forward to seeing some more. I have another check up trial scan next monday at 12+1 (my last appt before I finish my daily injections next Tuesday!!!) then I also have my 'proper' dating/nt scan within the week too :)
I have my next trial appt at 16 weeks so im going to beg ask nicely for a scan then too! After having them fortnightly from 6 weeks, they really expect me to wait 8 weeks????

Choccywoccydodah · 07/04/2015 17:28

Lady you can't do it on the app, only the mobile site I think. There's a paper clip below to attach photos x

And welcome fabuluce!!

whoknew28 · 07/04/2015 18:04

Hooray for all the scans! So pleased for everyone! Toast - Mine's tomorrow morning. Still nervous despite the good 10 week scan, but not as bad as I would've been without it. Everything crossed...

minijoeyjojo · 07/04/2015 18:37

Congratulations to everyone with their lovely scan pics :)

I'd been growing a nice little bump over the last week or two and it seems to have completely disappeared today! Baby must be hiding somewhere (or it was all just bloat!)

Anyone else getting a bump? I guess its still early days as its my first and I'm only 14+6.

RhiannonElward · 07/04/2015 18:55

I definitely have a little bump minijoeyjojo, I thought I was just getting a bit chubby, but it's rounded now and definitely bump shaped :) It is very early (I'm 13+1) but as it's my third I think I'm all stretched and ready for expansion.

crazypuglady · 07/04/2015 19:51

Scan was incredible. Date changed by one day so I'm now 12+6 and due on 14th Oct. Baby was incredible wiggly and kept waving a foot at us! Pic is pretty good Grin

October baby bus take 3- booking in appointments and scans, here we come!
RhiannonElward · 07/04/2015 22:07

Yay! Congratulations crazypuglady on that lovely picture of your little one :)

Poppytime · 08/04/2015 08:06

Been a bit awol over easter - nice to catch up and see all the bump pics! I'm 14+5 today and definitely have a small bump now, it's my second and I reckon I am a good few weeks earlier in showing this time round. I've told work now so at last don't need to hide it, but still reckon most people will just think I'm getting a bit fat! Smile

scatterbrainedlass · 08/04/2015 09:52

Woo nice scans everyone Grin Mine's on Monday, excited!!

Choccywoccydodah · 08/04/2015 10:28

Gorgeous crazypug!!

gaggiagirl · 08/04/2015 10:32

So many lovely scans!

Just a reminder that there is a private facebook group running alongside this thread where we can share photos,worries and woes! PM your Facebook name/email and I'll invite anyone who wants to join.

SLH10 · 08/04/2015 11:35

Hi all
I have only just discovered this, can I join? I'm 10wk+5, edd 30th October and this is my first. We had an early scan last week as I knew I wouldn't be able to survive Easter with my family without telling them and wanted to check all was ok. Luckily it is and Bubba even gave us a little wave! 12wk scan is on the 16th April, bit worried about all the tests now though, hoping nothing is wrong! I've been pretty lucky so far with only a few symptoms - mainly extreme tiredness and the odd bout of morning sickness, although this morning was different and I feel a bit rubbish today. Weird how it suddenly gets you for no apparent reason! Feeling lucky my work are understanding and are happy for me to work at home. I'm feeling so big already...is this normal?? I've already had to buy maternity bras as mine are all too small already and I can't fit in to any of my trousers, I feel a bit silly getting maternity trousers already.
Anyway, hope everyone else is doing ok.

whoknew28 · 08/04/2015 13:29

Relief! All is okay! Just had 12 week scan and bean is doing well. My dates have moved forward to the 16th Oct (our wedding anniversary!) so I'm 12+5 today rather than 12+0 as I thought. Whoop!

Welcome SLH - and gaggia, I'll PM you later for the FB group, thanks!

RhiannonElward · 08/04/2015 13:36

Hi SLH10 and welcome :)

Sorry to hear you've been exhausted but having only occasional nausea is definitely something to be feeling lucky about. Only a few weeks to go and then you'll hopefully be feeling a lot better, in the meantime make the most of work being accommodating and look after yourself.

As for being big, I think most people feel big and bloated, I did, but then that cleared and only very recently have I noticed a definite bump emerging though I think I'm showing earlier than most because I'm having my third and my muscles have been stretched to hell twice before :)

RhiannonElward · 08/04/2015 13:39

Excellent news whoknew! Can you post a pic?
