great news wombat I shall kepp fx for you

Hey Measurements from yesterday were:

Gestational Sac (Mean) 14.7 mm
Gestational Sac Volume 1.5 ml
CRL 3.4mm

no idea what CRL is though.... too big for bean m'thinks...

knitter CRL is bean! It stands for crown rump length. how old is bean? Mine grew from 1mm to 10mm between 5+6 and 7+4

oooh - bean is only 5+4 though

Dachs have just found this CRL table and actually that seems about right :)

glad to have been of service knitter

Now I'm worried about mine being too small though :(

eek at that CRL table,.. mine at 14+3 was 8.5 so a biggie!

Thanks Mama i havent noticed lumps but just some pain and a touch of bleeding. Have been a little constipated thanks to the spatone! Gah!

Rain rain go away, come back another day..... miserable bloody weather

Dachs stop it hon! You have seen both beans, with good heartbeats and all is well! Bloody hell, I'll have to put one of those parental locks on your PC to stop you looking at all this and panicking yourself!

dacha why exactly are you doing this to yourself? Did the consultant say they are too small? No? Well then. Plus I'm sure the measurements etc are completely different for twins.

Fingers crossed all is well emoo and wombat.

Have got uncontrollable rage today. Especially with colleagues that are being complete tossbags. RRAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH

Fingers crossed for you on Friday Wombat, that new GP sounds lovely and much more understanding.

Good news from your scan Knitter, and Dachs yours sounds like good news too. Your posts frequently make my cry. But then, so did Johnny Wilkinson coming on at the end of the England/Italy rugby match - blooming pregnancy hormones

Sorry I can't name check everyone but Pink I am sooooo glad someone feels like I do at the moment. I swear, I'm going to have ripped the boss's head off by the end of the day! Grrr

What's wrong with being paranoid?

Please don't snuffle Dachs, I'm sure they didn't mean it that way

Its not that you are paranoid, (orange is the same ) you put yourself through unnecessary worry and then post about it on here :)

If there is a reason to worry then fairy muff.. if not then why do it to yourselves?

Plus also dont forget it makes others' more paranoid than normal too ..freaking out is fine, but reassuring others is good too :)

You really have to give yourself a good talking to and say... I have seen the heartbeats, the scan was only yesterday/4 days ago, i have no reason to think anything has gone wrong, so i must try to relax about it! I did it myself and it did help :) TBH DH told me if i kept fretting about it constantly i would will MC to happen... that kind of put me straight. Sometimes you need a sharp talking to rather than fluffy cuddles. Did me the world of good :)

pink i am suffering from the rage too... over the last few days i have been hideous :( bawled my eyes out yesterday as was snappy with DS - and thats not fair at all.. with myself.

Good afternoon all

Oh Dachs big hugs. I'm a worrier too (as I'm sure you've noticed!) It will get better xxx

Dachs - I did double check before I posted as i didn't want to worry you/anyone.... 1mm does seem small - infact I wonder if it is just an error - but 10mm at 7+4 seems spot on to me, especially for twins....

You're fine, you've got heartbeats and these measurements are an inexact science IMO....

With DS he was measuring bigger than they expected so they moved his due date earlier but I knew when he'd been concieved so knew my dates were spot on. They brought his due date 4 days earlier and as far as they were concerned he was then 4 days late :)

oooh MummyA how exciting....

Chin up Dachs paranoia is perfectly acceptable but just imagine if you had two future 10lb beans in there and having to fire them out! Lower end of the size scale with good heartbeats sounds just perfect to me!!

Am watching Annie at the mo with DD - and have to sing 'WE'VE GOT MUMMYA '

Right phonecalls to make!!

What?!! Nix is there some exciting news?!?!?!!!

PS Pink Daisy & Nickster am also getting uncontrolable rage too. Mainly for DP who has swallowed the "stupid saying/speak before he thinks" phrase book and I can't help but shout/yell/say something through gritted teeth in response. Also keep losing it with DS (and he's been poorly, poor mite). And dropping things, don't even get me started on that. A glass of Di Serrano ended up in the ice bucket at work last night. Luckily only a few drops were spilt. It took all my strength to not take out the infected cubes and suck with a passion!! And there was me only just saying I didn't have any sypmtoms. Jelly brain!!!

PPS According to Pregnancy Assistant app downloaded for HTC Hero on Monday, I'm 4+6 today.......

PPPS We all love Krispy Kremes in our house (down South (said in Kat Slater accent although not actually from London!)) and normally have to take supply when going to see in laws (up norf!) Not had any for a while as expensive habit, so baked some lovely almond & lemon curd muffins on Monday to curb any sweet cravings.

wombie there might be a little tiny bit of potentially exciting news on t'other fred

am officially not stressing about anything except work now. i shall stop posting unnecessarily stressed out freakouts for the sanity of the rest of you. Also because I'm worried about what mamap is intending to do with that fish :)

MummyA come in and join the madness!!

Would you like an almond & lemon muffin with your ?
