Thought I'd start up a new thread as the old one has run out of space.

Thanks @Spritegirl that's good advice. As you say, it's the not knowing and the waiting that feels a bit crap right now. Do you know when you might get results?

Sorry to hear that you're getting no clarity from tests at all Gizzy that must be very frustrating.

Hey @spritegirl, nothing yet. I'm on high alert and keep looking at my phone, checking to see if shes phoned me yet. I'm really struggling and just want to know either way Are you ok? X

@spritegirl, when are your results due?

Fingers crossed you hear soon @Sparklesdontshine. Got everything crossed for you.

The consultant said 8 days and we had the test Monday night so I'm hoping mid next week. So I'm not expecting the phone to ring just yet but it's a horrible wait. I'm waking up in the night and then can't get back to sleep so the tiredness just makes it all more difficult to deal with. Trying to stay positive but it's tough. From reading around it seems the NHS combined test just isn't very accurate and a lot of people have been stressed and worried and then everything's been fine in the end so I'm hoping this is the case for all of us.

Just had my screening results back, all fine.

Hope those waiting don't have to wait too much longer. Keep us updated.

Off topic but I've just booked my wedding. So excited and nervous was desperately ringing round venues because it's a bit last minute but managed to find a slot in a gorgeous registry office.

Hi everyone, meet Nit. We've just got to wait on our screening results now as well. Was worried for a while as nit wasn't playing ball for the nuchal measurement. I have an absolute peach of a bruise forming from my bloods too.x

Aww, Kiki what a fab pic!! This is Roo, it took us 3 attempts to get this picture as stubborn little one was too comfy! NT measures good just waiting for the full results. As I expected, my due date has been pushed back a full week so now due 25th Aug. Can't believe I've got to relive the whole week 😂

Congrats @youcantbesirius! Bet your looking forward to it :)

@kiki lovely photo ! So exciting x

@gkeen369 your photo hasn’t come up on mine but nice to know everything is doing fine :) congratulations !

@YouCantBeSirius how exciting congratulations.

Congratulations to everyone who's had good scans and results

@gkeen369 same here, due date is now 24th August. I feel like I've gone back in time.

Ours was also uncooperative so I had to go to the cafe for half an hour and then come back. Luckily she just about managed to get the measurement.

Opps, just double checked and my due date is actually 23rd August. Should probably learn my own due date as my son arrived on his.
That means I'm 12 weeks tomorrow, again.

Hiii,

I am a little late to the party

Had our 12 week scan last week which put our due date to the 6th.

It was so amazing seeing peanut dance ❤️

What is the name of the FB group if you don't mind me asking? I find it hard to keep up with Mumsnet chat!

Aww lovely scans. Ours tomorrow and I'm feeling so anxious.
gkeen I'm in Chesterfield too!

@YouCantBeSirius - Congratulations! Sounds like it'll be perfect.

@GKeen - must be something about the weather affecting babies today - just not quite doing what they're supposed to because they're warm whilst we're freezing. Well worth the wait though, that's a gorgeous pic.

@Pereie - Peanut also takes a lovely photo. Guess it's never too early to research dancing lessons locally x

11+5 scan pic for you :)

Such lovely scan pictures everybody! ❤️❤️

@Gizzymum what a nightmare for you. Did the midwife ring back?

@YouCantBeSirius wow you do have an exciting time coming up!! When do you get married?!

Glad your results were OK @bobcat85 - hoping everyone else waiting for results gets news soon. There seems to be so much waiting anxiously in pregnancy.

25th of May

@milney25 yes she rang back. The ultrasound dept said they wouldn't redo the scan but I could have the 16w blood test or pay for the Harmony test 🤦🏻‍♀️. The midwife obviously forgot this key bit of info. She then suggested I ring them so I did and spoke to a sonographer (who coincidentally did my DS 12wk ultrasound) who confirmed they wouldn't rescan despite Harmony test not being an option.

Ah, some lovely scan pictures

Sorry for those of you worrying, sending happy/positive thoughts to you all

This week is dragging in for me, counting down til Friday

Sorry some of you are having such a stressful time. Hope everyone gets positive answers in the end. Scan pics are lovely ladies.

@Pereie the Facebook group is private so you won't find it by searching. If you want to be added to the group if you pm the email address you use for Facebook to either myself or clementine clouds then either one of us can add you. The link will come through on your email for you to accept the invite then. X

Lovely seeing so many scan pictures!

@bobcat85 Both my sons arrived on their due dates! Pressure on for number 3 to maintain their high standards of punctuality! I don't think it's likely though - both boys' EDDs were pushed back 4 days at their dating scans and bizarrely this one is measuring 5days ahead so no idea what to expect.

Yayyy 12 weeks today, so glad I've reached this milestone, but still a week to go until my dating scan 🙄.
Pregnancy insomnia has me again, so OH and myself are both up, him in pain with his foot and me stuffing digestives and having a brew.😂

@TinoTheArtisticMouse ahhhh! Small world!! Good lock with your scan today! I've got an appointment in antenatal clinic today to pick up my SlimmingWorld vouchers x
