Hi ladies,

Hope you're all ok and not struggling with pregancy symptoms too much!

I had a scan on Monday at 6+4 and we found out we're having twins again! I'm still in shock and am a nervous wreck as we lost twins at 19 weeks in January.

Next scan on Monday 19th August (two weeks after the first scan). I saw my midwife on Wednesday (already) and she has referred me to the perinatal mental health service as my anxiety levels are very high. I see them in two weeks.

Keep in touch everyone x

@20TinkerBell20 I'm a little nervous but I think that's just normal. I had a scan at 7 weeks and Baby was fine so I have no reason to think otherwise at the moment so fingers crossed it's all ok. And yes to the sleeping! If I wake up to go to the toilet in the night (which seems to be happening nearly every night) I struggle to go back to sleep. Im hoping we still have my pregnancy pillow up the loft as I think that will really help me get comfortable.

@Squiff70 wow twins! Hope your appointments go well and can put you at ease although I understand how hard it must be after being through such an awful experience

20TinkerBell20 · 09/08/2019 14:55

@Cupcakes1234 what made you decide to have the early scan. And at 7 weeks did they manage to do the normal scan as opposed to the internal one? I had both with my first but this time around I feel a bit more reluctant for the internal one. Also not sure I can wait until 12 weeks. @Squiff70 that’s lovely news - you’ve been through so much I do hope you can enjoy some of this pregnancy although I expect it will be a worrying time for you.

Cupcakes1234 · 09/08/2019 15:17

@20TinkerBell20 I had a suspected eptopic, I was getting bad stabbing pains and had a really achy shoulder. Phoned 111 and they advised I go to A&E to be checked over. After spending a good few hours in the waiting area they admitted me over night as they had booked me an emergency scan the following day to see where it was basically. I had to go on a drip to keep my levels up in case I needed surgery so they wouldn't let me eat. But I had my scan and Baby was where it should have been and heart was beating and everything. I don't know where the shoulder pain came from but I must have just pulled it doing something. And the pains must be ligament pain. It's all gone now though. I'm 11+2. I didn't have an early one first time around.

Cupcakes1234 · 09/08/2019 15:19

And it was an abdominal scan but baby was so tiny! It really only looked like a blob lol.

dizzy85 · 09/08/2019 18:12

Hey ladies, it's lovely to see everyone is doing well. And massive congratulations @Squiff70 for twins that's so lovely 🥰 I wish you all the happiness and hope you can relax and stay positive xx
I'm starting to feel a lot better than I was, I'm still waiting for my first period but looking forward to whenever we decide to start trying again.

dizzy85 · 13/08/2019 20:27

@dizzy85 so glad you're feeling better
@Cupcakes1234 that's fantastic news how are you feeling?
I'm 15 weeks now and it's dragging but we find out the sex next weekend. I can't wait!

Cupcakes1234 · 14/08/2019 10:21

@MrsB899 I'm actually feeling really well now. So much better than I did. What are you thinking so far, boy or girl? I don't know if we should find out or not, I'm really torn lol.

MrsB899 · 14/08/2019 10:58

@Cupcakes1234 I think girl 100% I will be so shocked if they say boy. Glad you're feeling good. I still feel absolute shite 😩 hope it ends soon

Cupcakes1234 · 14/08/2019 11:33

I feel like it's a girl but everyone is saying they think I'm having a boy. I have no clue though! Ahh sorry to hear you're still feeling rough. Hopefully it'll ease in the next couple of weeks for you 🤞🏼

dizzy85 · 14/08/2019 21:44

@MrsB899 Thankyou 🙂 I'm looking forward to starting again even looking forward to the tww believe it not. I think my first period started yesterday but it's slowed down a lot today so not too sure but I'm gonna start tracking ovulation again this month to see where I'm at. Hope you start feeling better soon x

Hey ladies, just checking in, hope your all getting on well? Anything exciting going on? I had my first day back to work today I was actually really glad to be back to it. I'm feeling so much better than I was now.

Cupcakes1234 · 21/08/2019 12:59

Hey @dizzy85 glad your first day back at work went well and you're feeling good! All is good here thank you 😊. We have decided we aren't going to find out what sex baby is again and go for a little surprise (which is going to drive me crazy) but it'll be nice at the end lol. Not long until my next midwife appointment when I get to hear baby's heartbeat

dizzy85 · 22/08/2019 14:26

@Cupcakes1234 Thankyou it's nice to be back to normality, apart from getting up at 5 again😆 glad to hear your doing well. That'll be a lovely surprise at the end I think that's what I'd choose too, definitely be hard waiting but well worth it.Aw very exciting times getting to hear heartbeat too 😊.
I think I might be ovulating soon, but think I'm gonna wait another month to start trying. I'm excited for when we do.

MrsB899 · 22/08/2019 19:02

Hi Girls. @dizzy85 so glad to hear you're first day went well and you're feeling better. I had a 16 week midwife appointment yesterday and got to hear the heartbeat which was lovely. We find out the sex on Saturday. I'm so excited but nervous as well

Squiff70 · 22/08/2019 19:51

Hi ladies,

I'm sopleased you're all doing ok!

Just a catch-up: I'm 9 weeks today. My 12 (well, 13) week scan is on 19th September, so a whole month to wait which will be tough but I'm getting really good care so far. I'm under consultant-lead care now because of my previous losses and because I'm carrying twins and he will apparently do a c-section at 36 weeks which takes us right to the end of February. I'm praying they're not delivered on the 29th and be born leap year babies, lol!

Cupcakes1234 · 22/08/2019 21:48

@dizzy85 good luck for when you do start trying again!

@Squiff70 it will soon come around! It's scary how fast the days/weeks are going. I was so relived when they moved my due date forward as I was sure I'd have it on the 29th as that's just my luck lol. But I don't think it's a possibility now being due on the 15th Feb

dizzy85 · 25/08/2019 13:22

@MrsB899 Thankyou. How exciting have you found out the sex yet?

@Squiff70 glad your doing well 😊.

@Cupcakes1234 thank you, I'll be sure to update.
