December 2018 Babies - Thread #2

[MagicalCreatures]

Hi girls.
Was sitting at home being lazy so thought I’d start a new thread for ya’ll.
Well done for noticing Rachie

@usernamechecksout we’re they ok doing the nuchal fold at 10+6? I have my scan tomorrow & i know I’m only 10+5 not 11+4 as my LMP suggests. Everywhere I’ve looked online says the Nuchal scan cannot be measured before 11 weeks.

Sorry for everyone with bad news 😪

My nausea is mostly gone, but my appetite hasn't returned yet. I am now getting issues hiding my bump at work, I feel huge 😂

I’m so sorry to hear your news pamplemousse and yellow. Take care of yourselves

I had my scan today and all was fine. Measured 10+4 which is what I expected. Too small for nuchal measurements so going back in 2 weeks

@Bora8 I’m not sure! I thought it was quite early as well. I guess if I wasn’t doing the harmony test they would have referred me to the midwife anyway and waited for the 12 week scan measurements.

@Bora8 if you are too early they’ll arrange for you to come back and have it repeated.

Nausea set in again this evening. Really really bad. Have been lying down for hours but can’t sleep. Just sipping cold water to try and settle it. It vanishes for days and then hits in again for a short while. Very strange.

Had a load more pink spotting last night, and still there tiny bit this morning, and feel crampy, though I have the whole time, it’s just it feels bad now. The fear has hugely set in. Some of you have had this and then had good scans right?

@Buenavista I’ve had constant spotting interspersed with red bleeding at times. Scan yesterday showed strong heartbeat and subchorionic haematoma which is probably the source of the bleeding.

Can you call your GP/EPU?

Scan at 9.30am!! Never been so scared in my life!!! Never made it past this point!!! 🤢

Good luck @cakelaur

I had an early scan 6+6 yesterday, I was absolutely petrified but everything was fine, saw a flicker of the heartbeat and got a picture of a nice little blob

I'm sure everything will be fine, I'll keep my fingers crossed for you xx

fingers crossed @Cakelaur

@buenavista I had red blood a few weeks ago, but scan showed all fine. Fingers crossed all is OK for you too.

@cakelaur fingers crossed!

Oh wow, I'm so sorry to hear people's bad new on this thread Please take care of yourselves x

cakelaur good luck babes xxx

Ladies!! It is possible!!! It's real!! It has a heartbeat and wriggles. 2 arms, 2 legs. Measuring a day ahead at 8+4. It can happen! 🌈

@cakelaur what a wondeful photo and such a lovely post.....my symptoms (nausea and diohrhea) seem to have eased a bit the last few days although have been replaced by a continuous feeling of hunger which is somewhat reassuring.....its so scary though I needed some positive news. For financial reasons im waiting it out until 12 week scan unless Im very very worried....would appreciate hearing from anyone else whos symptoms have fluctuated and changed early in first trimester....Im just at 7 weeks today x

@cakelaur horray! So so pleased for you! What a lovely thing to see just before the weekend!

Awwww lovely scan photo @cakelaur . Very happy news:)

Yayyy!! Beautiful little bean!! It's just amazing isn't it xx
I have to wait until my 12 week scan on the 1st.. 3 weeks today I'm so exited/terrified all at the same time

Thanks ladies!!! Relieved is an understatement! Still sinking in!

@Firsttimemama84 my symptoms were on and off at 7 weeks. Then at 8 weeks on the dot I was throwing up all day every day! Nausea has eased a little today, but the smell of my puppy still makes me 🤢 so that's comforting! (Poor puppy) haha.

@December2018 I have to get to 12 weeks now! I'm gonna really try and not book a 10 weeks scan. But who knows. EPU is happy and doesn't need to see me again unless there's an issue.

Thats really reassuring thanks cakelaur.....I dont even have my 12 week scan date yet....but then Im not 12 weeks until 15th!!! It feels like so long doesnt it!!

So after having an appointment booked through the midwives for Reflexology to help my SPD which was then cancelled because its too early I have now spoken to the specialist midwife that does it and she doesn't treat women before week 24, definitely not before the anomaly scan, because of risks to baby . I've seen lots of private people will do it after the 1st trimester and some say at 'any stage' of pregnancy so I'm gutted I can't have it sooner NHS. I'm in pain. She said I will just have to go to the GP for painkillers until then. Its bloody August til my appointments
I've got BUPA cover so I'm going to see if I can see maybe an osteopath or acupuncturist in the mean time

@Cakelaur YES!!!! That’s fantastic news. And it’s looks like a proper little human. You must be so relieved x x x

@Firsttimemama84 15th May?? I'd call them. Cos they have to do the nuchal scan before 13+6. So I'd call them.

@MagicalCreatures it's the best day of my life!! 🌈 relieved is an understatement! I'm mind blown!
