Glad all went well @Loopyaboutmy2boys! I'm counting down until Monday for my 12 weeks scan... it all still doesn't feel real!

It still doesn't feel real to me either, am still very worried that something may go wrong, and felt bonkers to be discussing dates. Just feel so anxious. She confirmed they don't do ELCS there at weekends so the absolute latest date the CS should be due would be Friday 13th but we said about having had enough bad luck already and she said absolutely fine to request it's done before then anyhow hence the revised date being 12/10 at absolute latest, but she said with my history 38 weeks might be an option to get it out safely as soon as possible which would be 5/10. I'll have just turned 41, and my second baby was 9lb 3 with a 91st centile head just like his brother had and needed forceps to yank him out during the CS. I think me being short and DH being tall doesn't help! But got to get through booking in with the midwife tomorrow and then the next scan a week today with the Panorama test..

Glad it all went well loopy CS dates change quite a lot depending on emergencies, doctor availability. Lots of time still to confirm.

Brilliant news loopy

I've had two early scans - one at 6+5 which was private and I paid £55 for. The second was through EPU and was at 8+6. Both of those were due to 4 early miscarriages last year.

I only got my 12 week scan at my booking in apt which I had at 9+2 and my scans when I'm 12+6.

Great news loopy!

I have the worst hip pain! It gets worse though the day until I can't walk in the afternoon. I feel like I'm failing my 2 boys as I can't do anything with them in the afternoon. Had anyone else has this. Or any tips how to ease it? I'm wearing a heat pad strapped to it constantly and trying to rest it when I can.

Had my private early scan today. Looks good was wriggling round a lot she put me two days further along due to measurements. It looked like Casper on the screen :-) well worth the money imo

Great news, Loopy and Try! 😊 xx

Punk it sounds like something to mention to dr/midwife? Sorry it's causing you so much pain. And you're not failing your boys, you're growing them a sibling. They're loved, and they'll be ok!

We told the inlaws last night and they were pleased for us!

Since we had the early scan my oh is now so excited goodness knows what he's going to be like after the 12 week scan lol.

Sickness and exhaustion is still there but I'm managing it a bit better now. I have more acne than I've ever had lol

I'm getting to the point where I'm starting to believe it now! First midwife appointment is next week and scan on the 19th April. The bit between my hip bones is starting to fill out a little bit now which feels exciting rather than just being bloated(which I still am!)

I've started to get sharp pains shooting through my pelvis. There's no bleeding or cramping, just these intermittent shooting pains which make me catch my breath. Anyone any ideas if that's something I should be worried about?

Does it feel internal or musculoskeletal? Could be the start of SPD, but I'd get it checked out if it carries on. Or possibly round ligament pain? I can't remember what that felt like though.

I caved and went for a scan this morning. 7+5 and measuring bang on with a nice strong hb. Nowhere near my c-section scar either. Phew.

I was in tears when I got there and broke down completely when I was shown into the scan room as it's the same room I had my MVA (surgical management) in three months ago. I was a mess. Didn't take dp with me either, like a idiot. Anyway, cautiously optimistic and another scan in ten days to try and alleviate my anxiety.

Oh no greedy what a horrible experience for you, although glad you had a happy result! Not long till next scan either.

It feels internal. I have got some aches in my hips when I stand up after sitting down which I'm presuming could be the start of SPD but didn't have it in first pregnancy so no experience of it.

Just checking in and catching up!

This is baby number 3 and I cannot believe how much I'm showing already. I'm 10 weeks tomorrow and a mum at school came up to me yesterday and looked at my stomach and smiled and said "well congratulations!" Cue me going bright red.

Also considering telling DD1 and 2 tonight, they are 9 and 5 and poor DD1 came downstairs the other night and cuddled me and said "Mum I can't sleep because you're crying too loud" which sent me into fits of sobs again! (I was just feeling sorry for myself and having a good cry - not like me at all) she doesn't have a clue what's going on, although I think she may have figured it out and not said anything.

Morning sickness is still horrendous, been having ginger with hot water which is helping, slightly

I heard the heartbeat today 11 weeks the furthest iv ever got. going to tell parents next weekend when we meet up for mothers day. hope you all have a happy. healthy and exciting weekend xxx

Help! I can't stop eating... I feel like I'm putting so much weight on even before my bump shows.

Today I have had:
Cereal
Cheese sandwich
Big tub of prepared mango
Pasta bake
Very full bagel

And I am now on my way home planning what to have for dinner

Haha thatgirl I am the same!! If I don't eat for more than about 45 mins I get super queasy!

I've been the same ThatGirl and polly my latest issue is that after I've gorged on something I go off it and the thought of it then makes me queasy, was craving pasta bake then other day so ate a vat some and now I couldn't face it!! Same with chilli last night!

Ditto! I just seem to want to eat all the time.. don't even want to list what I've eaten today! 2 (full) days until my 12 week scan now, the nerves have fully set in.

Haha same! Need to eat every hour or I feel awful and start retching, but then I need to eat something different as I go on/off things very quickly! Oh the joys eh! 😅

So pleased for you green!

It's been a long old week, getting bored of this limbo as usual.

All this talk of food is making me hungry (like I haven't eaten my own body weight twice over today - cereal, hula hoops, chicken and basil pasta, two rather large pieces of banoffee pie, and a whole punnet of strawberries - all my healthy eating good intentions have gone out of the window...)

Has anyone got any good pasta recipes? I know I've already had it today but I really fancy something like buttery lemony pasta... does such a thing even exist??

I'm out of this bus, not meant to be this time for me unfortunately. Good luck with the rest of your pregnancies.

Hi all!

Joining in after lingering for the last few 100 messages! I'm 8+3, first pregnancy and also cannot go for longer than an hour between snacks before I feel queasy, and also going off food just aso quickly! Driving my poor DP mad as he keeps buying me treats when I want them only for me to change my mind about liking them!

Also, I really need to whinge! I'm annoyed with my midwife. I self referred when I got my bfp and told her that I was massively unclear on dates as although I'd had a bleed it had only lasted a day and I'd not had a period in 10 years due to contraception. She still dated me from that bleed and I have my booking appointment on 8th April and scan on 20th. I was concerned with getting the scan in by 13+6 so we decided to book an early scan. Had the scan on Wednesday and it was amazing, one healthy jelly bean measuring a week ahead of my dates. I rang the midwife today to tell her that because of the scan my booking appointment isn't now until nearly 12 weeks and scan cutting it a bit fine for 13+6 could we move my appointments. Midwife then proceeded to tell me off for having a scan and wasting my money! She said they won't believe a private scan and that I shouldn't have had one and that they were unreliable and wrong. I have no idea if she's right but was mega pissed at her for putting a downer on my perfect early scan! I just want to have my scan in time and not miss out on tests because she has a bee in her bonnet about private scans.

Sorry for the long post, and hello everyone!

another really sorry to hear that :(

Re food, I'm on prednisolone which has made me really hungry.

Today I've had a bowl of cereal, 2 glasses of milk, 2 cups of tea, 2 slices of toast, a packet of transformer snack crisps (think they are the sort that are baked not fried as puffy things) an apple, some orange matchmakers (still lots in the box so could have been worse!!) a slice of Edam cheese, and for tea I've just had 6 chicken nuggets with some oven chips and a small blob of ketchup for the nuggets, another apple and a pineapple ring to use up the tin. And I still feel peckish...

another sorry re your loss.

peaches if your midwife won't use the dates you need then phone the hospital yourself and book a scan direct. Not meant to but they don't usually mind if you explain why. The last thing they want is to scan people too early or too late for the nuchal fold and the bloods. I'm due to start a new job the day I will be 12+1 so I phoned my hospital before I'd even seen the midwife, explained just why I needed to make sure I had my scan by the time I'm 11+5 and they booked me in no problem at all.
