Gruff!! Good to hear from you, and glad things are sounding so positive Surely bleeding would have continued if there was anything amiss? Sounds like you've got a good GP there .
Right, probably last post from me today so speak tomorrow. Night all

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 20/08/2008 17:25

Sorry x posts Gruff. I hope the doc managed to put your mind at rest enough to relax a bit. I have heard before that a UTI can cause slight bleeding.

Is it enough to put your mind at rest? Because if not, go back, you deserve to be left feeling well, not all wound up.

Hi Nat! x-posts...no please feel free to go on as much as you want about the scan. Tis so exciting, and I personally like as much detail as possible

MKG · 20/08/2008 17:31

Good thanks, am 11 weeks already and hoping for a girl. Not that I would know what to do with one .

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 20/08/2008 17:32

Well there's not much more to tell really anyway!

Awww DS1 and DS2, DS2 has a few (probably stale) frazzles left (crisps !!) they both went to get the last one, DS2 picked it up, ate some of it, and gave the rest to DS1 Mmmm soggy crisps, nice!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 20/08/2008 17:34

LOL MKG Do you get scans at similar times over there?

OP posts:
GruffaloSoldier · 20/08/2008 17:38

Yes Diege I agree that you would think as bleeding was only short and now none existent that this would be a good sign - lets hope so!

NJ - I think it is put at rest as much as it can be, Ive just got to try and be patient - I just want to know for sure that everything is ok - waiting is not my strong point though!!

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 20/08/2008 17:41

Would getting a private scan be an option? Have seen people on here saying they paid only around £40 for a very reassuring scan.

OP posts:
MKG · 20/08/2008 17:41

Yup.

NatalieJaneIsPregnantAgain · 20/08/2008 17:43

Not long to go for a dating scan then?

OP posts:
Playingthe9monthwait · 20/08/2008 17:45

Glad everything seems ok Gruf. Sure you would have known by now if anything worse is happening, glad you gp is taking it seriously.

Really am very happy for you Nat, no wonder you can't stop smiling!

I paid £50 for my dating scan at 8 weeks.

Right, only really checked in to check out! Off home now.

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 20/08/2008 17:53

i keep nearly being sick... but not feeling sick, and now have a burning acid feeling/taste in my throat feel a bit poo!!

tinkisnearlyhalfway · 20/08/2008 18:13

glad that all went well with the dr.
agree go on as much as you like nat

Dalrymps · 20/08/2008 18:25

Nat - Shopping sounds fun, I love newborn clothes
Gruff - glad the bleeding has stopped and that your doc was helpful. Good that you got some rest too.
Well i'm off to visit pils for a bit so night all, back tomorrow

calsworld · 20/08/2008 19:52

Hello all - have had terrible day at work today, still got lots to do and supporting newbies and junior people is delaying things even further.....can't wait to tell everyone that I'm not going to be there for most of next year (hopefully!).

Glask, I was the same as you 'blew' up in the early stages but am fine again now, I think with digestive system slowing down and sudden demand for lots of extra fluid bloating and water retention are really likely! Maybe it will pass...

Then again, maybe its twins !

Gruff - Really pleased you saw the doctor and she was so sensible and reactive for you. Also relieved that your employers were so understanding today - it takes a lot of stress away which is just what you needed. Hope it all stays relaxed for you.

NJ - Fab news, your boys are going to be soooo excited . Is DH pleased too?

Tink - only a week to go till your scan, you must be excited, hasn't it gone quick!

Now, who's poorly....sorry my memory is like a sieve these days - when I was poorly in Feb I had a stonking 41 day period - even the GP was convinced I was going to get a BFP! So I'd say yes, being even a little bit under the weather can have an effect on ovulation.

Waves to Dalrymps, Glaskam, Diege, Playing, Ses, KK, GYo, Emlou....

How'd I do?

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 20/08/2008 19:59

wow cals!! very impressive!! I can only reply to one person at a time!!

its not twins.... i'm almost certain of that!! must be because i'm not eating as much as normal but drinking twice as much then!!

kookykid · 20/08/2008 20:17

Evening all,

NJ - Glad scan went well and that you found out it's a boy! I'd LOVE a boy next time, but would just be happy to be pregnant at all! Have you got any names picked out - my sister had 3 boys and had a nightmare choosing DS3's name as she said she'd already used up her favourite names already!

Gruff - so glad doc and employers were supportive. I'm sure all is OK - I rememebr getting all kinds of funny cramps etc during my pg with DD (and panicking each and every time). Thinking of you!

Hi everyone else.

DH was determined to do a BarBQ tonight as weather OK, but we've ended up doing it all on the grill instead. I'm not sorry as it's too cold for me out there! I am also savouring a large glass of red. lovely!

calsworld · 20/08/2008 20:30

oooooooooooohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh KK! You minx.....you added that last bit just to make me really really didn't you....

Would so love a big glass of red! How are you doing? What CD are you on now? Have you planned yours and DH's GOF's yet? Shagtastic month for all you TTC'ers me thinks

kookykid · 20/08/2008 21:09

Cal! I had a ciggie too! shhhh! Don't tell anyone!

On CD3 and no, I haven't planned any GOFs! I seem to be OVing later and later, so it'll be while yet. My wonderful Mum is looking after DD for 2 whole nights this weekend and I found a 5* BandB not too far away for DH and me for Sat and Sun night. Who knows? We may even GOF for FUN!

Off to bed so will catch up tomorrow.

SesQal · 20/08/2008 21:10

All v exciting on here today!!

Congrats again NJ

Tink - I'm going to guess you're having a boy....

Gruff - glad you took the day off and your employers were so understanding. Also a relief to have a GP who listened and has done all the right things. Take care.

I'm still feeling a bit under the weather without feeling really ill IYKWIM. Spoke to DH over the phone and - bless him - he said that we'd just have to try and squeeze in a GOF between when he gets home and when I go away! I know he's feeling like a machine at the moment and that I'm being v demanding of him so I was a bit apprehensive about telling him but I know he wants us to get pg too so he gave me the right reaction!

SesQal · 20/08/2008 21:11

Hi Kooky
LOL at GOFing for fun!!!

Diege · 21/08/2008 08:27

Morning Hope everyone is well and happy!
Went to bed with a migraine last night and I still have it . Not helped by dds 2&3 deciding to get up in night . My problem is that if I get woken after say 1am I struggle to get back to sleep - hence awake from 1 till 3ish...
Anyway, enough wingeing (sp?) from me - at least I'm not back at work till the 1st!

tinkisnearlyhalfway · 21/08/2008 08:28

glaskhamhasoneintheoven · 21/08/2008 08:37
