Monkey another hand to hold here too. I hope it's good news tomorrow.

Ginger and Sock good luck for your scans tomorrow (hope I've remembered that right?!).

ImBreakingBad · 08/05/2017 19:47

Hope you don't mind me joining I feel as if I'm weighing down the positive Jan club with misery.

I'm currently 3 weeks 4 days pregnant and have had strong BFP's since Friday. (Early I know). It's terrifying me. Last AF started on the 13th April.

I've also had 1 MMC at 12 weeks and 2 chemicals. I've never had a positive this early. Was hoping someone could shed some light and offer me a reassurance.

Not been around much as work has been manic.
I'm now 13 weeks and beginning to think that this really might be our time.
We are going to tell ds (9years old) this week and it's terrifying me.
Off to catch up with everyone else x

PTphonehome · 08/05/2017 22:34

Good luck for tomorrow monkey x x

MonkeyPoozzled76 · 08/05/2017 23:03

Thank you everyone, I know everyone here has had the same worries as me so it really helps to share.

I've managed to eat some pizza as was feeling a bit more postive bit just been to the loo and lots of pink. It's going to be a long night.

Miami81 · 09/05/2017 07:37

Good luck today monkey. Holding your hand and sending positive energy your way.

theotherendofthesockportal · 09/05/2017 12:03

Hi everyone, my scan went well. I have an uncooperative baby who was asleep, they had to get me to do some jiggling to get the baby into a position where the measurements could be taken.

They kindly gave me 2 photos for free as they said the quality wasn't that good due baby not being in the right position. I think it was grumpy from being woken up by the jiggling.

I'm 12 weeks 5 days and due 16th November. I feel a great sense of relief now 😁

Oh monkey I'm so sorry you're going through this. I totally understand that feeling of wanting to just run away from it, I said to my partner at the early scan I wish I could just send someone else in for me instead of me! Pregnancy is the most nerve wracking bloody thing after miscarriage. Crossing everything for your scan xx

TootsyBella84 · 09/05/2017 12:10

Hi all! This thread moves so fast. My brown spotting turned in to black stringy clots yesterday which totally freaked me out, EPU squeezed me in today and my little bean is growing perfectly. They don't know the cause so most likely just my body getting rid of all the old stuff. This baby is seriously going to turn me grey!
It was lovely seeing baby again though, the change in a week is amazing.

Lovely scan sock and best of luck to you this afternoon Monkey, virtual hand holding xx

Yay! Great news Sock! I hope the relief and reassurance lasts a while.

I am having a bit of a yoyo day again as baby is quiet. Hoping lunch does the trick as my morning coffee and croissant did not. 20wk scan tomorrow and trying my hardest to look forward to it Confused

SayItIsntSo1 · 09/05/2017 12:16

Good news tootsy! How far along are you now?

oliversmummy26 · 09/05/2017 12:17

Lots of luck for your scan today Monkey really hoping it's good news for you. For what it's worth I had a huge bleed at 11 weeks and scan showed everything fine, now 22+2 and have had another bleed since, still all fine. Mine seems to be a bloody pregnancy!

Really hope everything turns out okay for you Flowers

@TootsyBella84 that is such a lovely clear picture! How wonderful 😊

TootsyBella84 · 09/05/2017 12:32

8+3 today going by my dates, 8+5 according to scan but I know they can be out by a few days this early. I'm looking forward to getting out of this yucky 1st tri!

Officially booking in with the midwife this afternoon!

mammabear4 · 09/05/2017 13:13

Hi ladies just a quick update. Waiting to go in for my scan but had a major bleed this morning, so much blood soaked through my jeans 😩 I'm not sure there's much hope left so just looking for a bit of virtual hand holding. Feeling very numb and like my body is an absolute failure

TootsyBella84 · 09/05/2017 13:20

mammabear I'm so sorry, hoping for a positive outcome and virtually holding your hand! X

knorrig · 09/05/2017 13:22

hand hold mammabear hope you get some good news!

MonkeyPoozzled76 · 09/05/2017 16:33

Oh Mamabear handing holding here for you, really hope you've had good news by now.

Excellent scan pics Sock and Tootsy, congratulations!

All good here, I am very relived to report there was a wiggly little baby with arms and legs, and most importantly a heartbeat, bobbing about in there whilst I was jibbering in and crying away. I'm measuring 9+6 and have my Harmony test booked for the 15th which will get me past my MMC milestone from last year. Wasn't allowed a pic but everyone was lovely so all good.

Thank you all for the hand holds 'D'H has been utterly vile all morning (he cant handle any of this so takes it out on me Sad) so I really appreciate your support.

P.S. anyone worried about lack of symptoms, I've had none with this little once except tiredness, I truely believed there would be nothing on the scan.

MonkeyPoozzled76 · 09/05/2017 16:34

Oh yes, and no sign of where all the blood came from and no sign of any more!

knorrig · 09/05/2017 16:41

So glad for you Monkey - what a relief!!!

grainmum · 09/05/2017 18:34

Great news monkey and sock. Hope you're doing OK mammabear whatever the scan showed, sending you very best wishes.

say sending you big hugs for tomorrow. I think over the next couple of weeks movements will become more reliable, mine are much more obvious yesterday and today, sometimes even notice them when I'm doing other things (22+3).

Sweetyboo · 09/05/2017 18:49

Girls need loads of positive vibes & prayers. Going for my 6 weeks early scan tom for heartbeat check. I got a feeling it will be fine im more scared for 12week scan while to go for that tho

Hazandduck · 09/05/2017 20:06

Good luck sweety will be thinking of you.

I am having a bad day today. I just keep thinking it's going wrong, have had crampy gas related pains all last night and most of today and it just makes me want to curl up in a ball and cry. Have had them on and off the whole pregnancy but I just keep thinking it is the end. Wish I could shake this feeling. Got back to my car tonight and burst out crying after holding it in all day then realised there was a surprised looking man in his car parked opposite me watching 🙄 OH is being amazing and keeps telling me to try and relax but it is so hard the further along I get the more painful I know it will be both physically and emotionally.

I just wish I could swap lives with someone else until this is over! I don't want to be living this life right now of constant anxiety and dread. Is it normal to feel this worried?? My scan is on Monday when I should be 14 weeks. It just feels forever away and like I will never get there. Xx

Sweetyboo · 09/05/2017 20:41

@Hazandduck thanks hun & sending same to you. Keep it together x

Hazandduck · 09/05/2017 20:44

I actually feel better now I've had a cry and have got in to bed really early with a cuppa. Wish I could just hide in bed until my baby is born! Thank you sweety gah its torture isn't it xx
