@Marie1990x its mad that they would say no to bloods though, do you have to pay for bloods there? yea the boobs one i don't mind either! i can see the veins and that now and the areoles, feel like a cow 😂

Marie1990x · 24/03/2025 12:07

@Daniki yessss they’ve just rang me and I’m going in the morning. She said something about they routinely offer hcg bloods there, but I never had one last time 🤔. No clue, but all good I’m going at 08:30am so hopefully won’t have too long to wait. Nervous now haha.

Hahahaha that made me laugh 😂. It’s all such a glamorous process isn’t it 😅

@Marie1990xhappy days! Will you repeat it after 48 hours or just see? It’s obv over 152 anyway if you got a 2-3 on a digital which is great! 🙌🏻 I know, such a dream 🤣

Marie1990x · 24/03/2025 12:19

@Daniki I’m not entirely sure, they didn’t mention that. I’ll ask tomorrow, but I assume if they’re on the low end maybe they would want to repeat. Hopefully not though 😊. Just want professional confirmation before I cancel my hycosy 😂

@Marie1990xah defo! Suppose if it’s a decent level there’s no need, can cause more stress than anything (hello🤣) are they quick with results?

Marie1990x · 24/03/2025 12:59

@Daniki when I was thinking my tests weren’t getting much darker I did think of you and yours 😂. Yeah if they’re a decent number then I need to stop worrying and enjoy it, the anxiety is taking over!

OP posts:
Daniki · 24/03/2025 15:45

@Marie1990xits unreal! I hope all will be smooth sailing for you 🙏 I just had a small bit of brown spotting there so hoping nothing is wrong 🙈

Marie1990x · 24/03/2025 16:06

@Daniki I’ve had quite a lot of cramps just now, like tingly rather than achey, strange.
If it’s brown that’s old blood right? Was it a lot of just a tad? This spotting must be sending your head wild, but I’m sure it’s just completely normal! Did you say you have a scan coming up?

OP posts:
Daniki · 24/03/2025 16:09

@Marie1990xyep iv one Friday thank god! Yea they say it’s old blood and not to worry but I know with my other miscarriages they all started out the same way 🙈 hopefully nothing i have had 2 other instances of it this pregnancy. Can feel a migraine starting too! The joys! Cramps defo normal anyway iv had them all the way throughout 😌

Marie1990x · 24/03/2025 17:39

@Daniki perfect, hopefully this week goes by quickly. Hopefully it’s nothing, and should be fine as long as it doesn’t get heavy. How is it now?

Yeah they seem to have lightened a bit now. I took my daughter and the dog for a walk to the park just now and has helped with the cramps 😊

OP posts:
Daniki · 24/03/2025 20:03

@Marie1990xiv had none since thankfully, few cramps but nothing major. Hopefully nothing! Yea praying it goes quick, today was such a long day! 🤣 oh that’s good, things are just settling in down there 🤣

Marie1990x · 24/03/2025 21:02

@Daniki well that’s good, glad there hasn’t been any more bleeding! We need nice quick weeks for the foreseeable 😂.

cramps have ramped up again. Don’t remember them being like this before, or maybe I’m just overthinking everything. Hopefully it’s just nestling away getting cosy 😅

OP posts:
Daniki · 24/03/2025 21:13

@Marie1990xdefo just nesting away 🙌🏻 yea im hoping it was just irritation from the pessaries maybe!

Marie1990x · 24/03/2025 21:39

@Daniki ohhh didn’t realise you had pessaries, yeah that deffos make sense that it would could be from them then?

OP posts:
Daniki · 25/03/2025 10:06

@Marie1990xmost likely as they irritate the cervix and it’s so sensitive!

Marie1990x · 25/03/2025 10:31

@Daniki at least there’s an explanation there then and makes complete sense 😊. Have you had any more spotting?

Had my bloods taken this morning, the nurse was so nice, she said she’s going to send them off straight away and might have them back this afternoon, but if not then tomorrow morning hopefully 🤞🏻

OP posts:
Daniki · 25/03/2025 13:17

@Marie1990xoh I hope you get them this afternoon, I know well the anxiety of blooding waiting on the result! iv had no more spotting only that small bit I had so 🙏 10 weeks tomorrow 🥹 really trying to keep myself calm and not get over excited 🙈

Marie1990x · 25/03/2025 14:55

@Daniki fabulous news! I can’t believe you’re 10 weeks already, absolutely flown by! Will you find out what you’re having when the time comes?

I think it will be tomorrow now, been refreshing my nhs app like a crazy woman but nothing on there yet.

OP posts:
Daniki · 25/03/2025 18:08

@Marie1990xanything yet!? How frustrating! God I haven’t even thought that far so I duno! I didn’t with my son but after taking so long I might be tempted! My husband wouldn’t want to tho!

Marie1990x · 25/03/2025 18:46

@Daniki nope nothing. Just hoping they’ll be on tomorrow. All my bloods in the past have been on the next day, except progesterone took a few days.

Ahhh I wish I’d be able to wait but I’m the most impatient person ever. Don’t know how people are so strong to not find out, I have no willpower 😅

OP posts:
Daniki · 26/03/2025 06:25

@Marie1990xi know altho dont know final be as strong this time! We’ll see 😂 hope your bloods up soon 🤞🏻🤞🏻

Marie1990x · 26/03/2025 06:55

@Daniki haha yeahhh treat yourself to finding out 😊. I’m too much of a control freak and like things organised to a tee, so if I didn’t find out I think I would just spiral and stress 😂.

I’ve just had quite a bad bout of sickness and nausea. Still not sure if it’s anxiety or baby related

OP posts:
Daniki · 26/03/2025 07:33

@Marie1990xthats a good sign 🙌🏻 I’d say baby related. Were you sick much with your daughter?

Marie1990x · 26/03/2025 08:41

@Daniki I don’t mind the sickness as long as it means everything’s as should be 😂. I wasn’t too bad with her, a few occasions but it wasn’t horrendous and didn’t last long, also came a few weeks later than I am now.

I think I’ve refreshed my nhs all about 10,000 times now in the hope of seeing my bloods 😅.

how are you feeling today?

OP posts:
Daniki · 26/03/2025 08:54

@Marie1990xnausea has defo ramped up for me I got sick in the garden there before taking my son to preschool 😆 just ate when I came home and feel better. I keep waking up around 5.30 and have to make some toast as I’m very nauseas then. Hoping it eases soon, otherwise il be tempted to ask on Friday for anti nausea meds! Omg I just seen the number 10000 and was like Jesus that’s high! 😂
