thomcat scan news

[Thomcat]

Ummmm, well not great really girls.
It's either good or bad and i'll only know which in 2 weeks.
I'm either only 5 weeks pregnant, not the 10 that we thought.
Or I'm 10 weeks 'pregnant' and the 'baby' hasn't done anything for 5 weeks.

So - that's it really.

I've done the math and I've pretty much convinced myself that it's unlikey to be good news. Pesamistic yes but there was a reason I wanted this scan so quickly, a niggle that was unlying my happiness.

My last period was 14 Feb. It seems more likey that it's not going to b e the good news. Will only know in 2 weeks time. Can't do anything till the next scan.

Gutted. Scared. Disappointed. Worried.
Not happy anymore that's for sure.Just wanted to tell you, well had to really.

Anyway, that's that.
For now.

Thank God for mumsnet aye girls, mad how much you/I need it right now.

D stayed in in the end, held me and stroked my hair and siad it'll all be okay and if it it isn't these things and meant to be, blah, blah.
He's giving me a m oment on here and then making me watch 'some like it hot'!

The reason they said to wait 2 weeks for the next scan was becasue it's so small right now that the only way to tell is to wait 2 weeks and see if it's grown, then we'll know.

Will speak to GP 1st thing tomorrow and see if we can do anything in the meantime. I don't know about these things.

Had a feel of my boobs (!) and nipples very, very tender, boobs hurt a lot in general.
Still feel a slight tightness, bit of an ache type thing low down above pubic bone to the right. Don't know what that means. No other symptons though really.

No idea what to think about irregular periods, I'm so crap. Having not had periods for so many years (about 5 yrs!) it's hard to tell. Since getting the depo injection out of my system I think they were becoming quite regular but I'm queen of the scatty cows in that area tbh so.....

If I am 5 weeks can't believe I'll have another Xmas baby! If i'm not........ I don't want to believe

I told God that I know he doesn't give us more than we can deal with but I really did just want to be 'normal' this time and have a baby without 'complications'.

Anyway, getting a bit self indulgent and ott so should stop. I am, among other things, a drama queen apparently A dram queen and a right soppy old cow, who is sensitive, wears her heart on her sleeve and who'll be praying very hard for the next 2 weeks and hopefully the 2 after that and the 2 after that until a healthy baby is in the crook of one arm and my lottie is in the other.

Speak to you all in 2 weeks then girls.
Thanks for being there, it's actually so, so helpful and reassuring, so truly, thanks. TC x

Thinking of you with fingers crossed. X

Thomcat it really isn't fair that you should go through this worry.

But JanH could be right. It is unlikely that 5 weeks after a pregnancy "stopped" you would still be having symptoms (remember that pain in your side) or a positive test. And you were remarkably symptom free until recently. (by the time I was 10 weeks 2nd time aroudn I couldn't do up my jeans because your stomach muscles give way that much quicker). I know it's easy for us to tell you to stay positive, and so much more difficult to do it, but do try to.

TC, so very sorry it's not the news you wanted. Keeping everything crossed that JanH is right.

Thomcat, I really really hope you get some good news in 2 weeks time - will say a prayer for you!

But you are a soppy drama queen tha we all love.

Have you had a urine test btw - I had loads of UTI's when pregnant and they were always preceeded by a pain in the right hand area of my belly.

Glad to hear you sounding a bit more positive, TC! Christmas baby, yeah!

A 5 week pg is a 3 week foetus which is tiny. The tender boobs is a great sign. Hang on in there, chuck. XXX

Oh no - so sorry that you have been left so worried. As someone else said - it is not an exact science. Try to get HCG test - if the levels are increasing then you ARE pregnant.

Hoping that you are have an early Jan baby instead of a late Nov one.

I am thinking of you.

You girls, really, you just don't know.
haven't wanted to 'talk' to anyone but have really felt better being on here. I was going to say it's mad but I should be used to how much better I can feel after being on here by now.
Thank you. I'm going to be positve tomorrow, scared and anxious but positive with the possible odd blip! You're all great and I really mean that.
Janh, sometimes you feel like my guardian angel.
Mumsnet in general does sometimes. What a great place to be able to come to when you feel down or scared about anything.
Night all, and for the 100th time THANK YOU

night
hope you get some rest

And for the 100th time you are so very welcome, now go and get some sleep, dearheart.

BTW

That is an order.

TC - we love you being a soppy cow - don't ever change

Good night from the honorary stag with mysteriously fluffy but fully-formed antlers.

Tend to agree that such a recent positive test is an incredibly hopeful sign.
Also those sore boobs - always my first sign of being pg. They are very early signs - not ten weeks signs IME.
Also, by ten weeks second time around I had to tell people as I was so fat and pregnant-looking.
Plus I had a horrid scare very early on - they said baby was small for dates and I had bleeding, but everything was fine. More than fine!
Would be praying for you if that was my thing, as it is, will be thinking about you lots. I really do believe it will all be OK though.
Hope you enjoyed the film. Always the perfect mood-lifter!

Thomcat, saying a prayer right now. Sleep well.

Oh matey, how did I miss this? Thinking about you loads and wishing you happiness.

Sending all the positive vibes I have your way.

JMxx

TC - must be an agonising wait for you

I hope and pray all turns out well.

In the meantime, I'll keep everything crossed for you

Really hope you have good news in 2 weeks time. Praying not my thing but sending you as many positive vibes as I can.

Thomcat, sorry to hear you're going through this anxious time. I shall be keeping my fingers crossed for you. You mentioned seeing the GP and whether any other tests could be done in the meantime...well, I seem to remember they can test for hormone levels in your blood (I think the hcg (?) hormone which is the one the pregnancy tests kits are testing for). Levels should rise by a certain amount every couple of days in early pregnancy. (I think they double every couple of days). Sorry I don't know the exact details. Just thought maybe you could discuss that with your GP, although I think the only definitive way to get an answer is to wait for the next scan in 2 weeks.

Good luck.

TC (((((((hugs)))))))

Sending you love... ~~~~~~~healthy, strong vibes~~~~~~~~..and lots of courage.

Thinking of you.. hang in there.. we're all behind you.
