Whoops and Taichi ~ so sorry for your loss. Hope your are both doing well

Natalie x

Hello girls, im 7w 4d and just dont feel pregnant. Ive got huge veing boobs, bloated stomach and getting tired alot easier but thats it. I have small spells of sickness if im too hungry or too full. Although come to think of it for the last night or so ive had terrible sickness during the night (night sickness .

Theres a woman at work whos 8w. She's falling to sleep at her desk and puking in ASDA bags all day .

Ive had 2 scans already. One to check beanie is in the right place and one to check for the heartbeat. Both of these were fine.

Am i just having a easy 1st trimester or should i be worried. Ive spoken to the midwife who said that womens bodys all react differently to pregnancy. She also said the risk of miscarrige drops dramatically once a heartbeat has been seen. Is this correct?

Anyone else hardly got any symptoms?

Loving the thread title, I knew that would be you eft

completely lost track of the last thread, but my heartful sympathies to whoops and taichi. I wish you all the very best for your future ttc efforts.

Natalie, did I see that you had a scan and saw a hb? Brilliant news, you must be so pleased things are looking better for you.

ejt, I also have to comment on how industrious you sound - growing your own veg, getting waxed and singng in a choir??? I would be chuffed with one of those things!

J20 hope you are doing ok. how you always sounds so together amazes me. I didnt comment on this before but I did see you said on previous thread that you wouldnt mention your situation again after I commented I didnt know. I hope I didnt sound like I thoght it was inappropriate for this thread or anything, thats really not the case. If I was you I would mention it all the time in a furious rage!

LOL at puking in Asda bags. Just enjoy it, I know people who have had no symptoms as well. I must say I seem to be coming out the other side a bit now and dont feel sick at all.

Hi Kezza, yes i had the scan last week. Its was amazing. Both DP and i were in tears. Couldnt really see much apart from a blob with a tiny flicker. The nurse said that the HB was beating just as it should and everything looks fine .

thats great news Natalie. I have my scan date on 23rd, I am counting the days. when I had my 12 weeks scan with ds both dp and I were totally shocked that it was a proper baby! We thought it was an old picture from the woman in before us, so in 5 weeks time you will see a lot more than a little blob

Missnatalie - I have no pg symptoms to speak of although I have now had to start wearing a bra which is one cup size up.

Once you have seen a hb at 8 weeks, there is a 97% chance of a successful pg. If there is still a hb at 10 weeks, that improves to 99%. Although, if you are in the 3% or 1% that nevertheless don't make it, the statistics are not very comforting...

I cant wait for my 12 week scan. Good luck with yours. I'll keep a look out for your update. It still hasnt really sunk in that im pregnant. After what happened last time its hard to relax.

Hi All, just got back from my scan, everything is ok, saw a heartbeat and arms and legs waving all over the place, I am so relieved after the weeks of uncertainty after my mmc in October.

So sorry for those who have had bad news, my thoughts are with you all.

Congratulations MrsFish!! It's nice to have some good news at last...

Missnatalie - welcome to knicker checkers anonymous! - I would be one of those puking in bags - but I've been signed off work, and have now been off for 6 weeks ... doesn't stop me worrying though!

I had an early scan scan too - it was lovely to see a heartbeat, but I wish next Thursday would hurry up so I can have my dating scan ...

MrsFish - glad to hear your scan went well!

Kezza - I might sound industrious, but that's all I'm doing at the mo' - I'm a complete waste of space before about 11.30am - and am still being sick during the afternoon, but at least I can stay upright!

J2O - how are you keeping? Hope things are ok ...

Well, as for me, I had a horrible dream last night - I just hope they don't continue -in the dream, I went for my dating scan, and they decided they had to admit me, and made me put a theatre gown on - they put a name bracelet on my wrist - and it didn't have my name on it - and nobody would listen to me when I told them I got it wrong. People kept coming up to me and telling me that I was next on the list for a C Section - and whenever I tried to say I was just there for a dating scan, I just got laughed at and told that I was being silly, that they knew best. I eventually managed to wake myself up - but that was it as far as sleep was concerned ... I just had to go downstairs, eat some cereal and try to rationalise my thoughts. I went back up to bed eventually, but had real problems getting back to sleep ... ds also had a bad dream, and I got into bed with him for a bit to calm him down - he went back to sleep quite quickly thankfully - but I feel like a zombie now!

I hope this isn't the start of the nightmares and flashbacks again - I had them during my last pg - it seems like the worst bits of all 3 previous pg have been rolled into one! Don't know whether to phone the counselling service yet, or whether I'm jumping the gun a bit ... I'll see what happens over the next few nights first!

love to all my fellow knicker checkers ... remember, and excess of lady lotion does not an emergency make! (Wish I could take my own advice!)

hi everyone

ejt.. i have crazy dreams when i actually get to sleep, had 3 where i was having a girl, but strangers kept trying to take her from me, shook me up a bit!

missnatalie..i don't feel pg at all, got the sore and extreemly growing breasts, and tired and feeling sick, but just don't 'feel' pregnant

thanks for your concerns, its not too great at the moment, i've started a thread asking if i dhould try and get the money back off my ex that he borrowed, but he's making lots of threats, don't really have anywhere to turn, apart from mn!

have been decorating my bathroom, painted and laid the carpet, know i shouldn't really but it keeps me occupied!

and my dd loves me this evening, bacause instead of the dreaded 'fish pie' i was originally going to make for tea, she got fish fingers and beans as i was busy decorating, so easily pleased!

Glad you had a nice time greedy.

I hope your scan goes well next week. Mine is on Monday 26th March.

I hope everyone els is well.

Hurray! Greedy is back! They were asking where you were in the Hut of Doom/Gloom and I was getting worried that there might be a not-good reason why you weren't posting. Must have missed that you were going on holiday! Glad to hear your are brown and nursing a small bump and that you managed to get the scan rescheduled for the not too distant future... Same day as my nuchal fold scan!!

Welcome back Greedy - glad you had a lovely holiday!

My dating scan in next Thursday - there are quite a few of us with scans next week ....
