@maxiflump1 Thanks for the info. I'll probably not get to hear the heartbeat I guess. The reason I'm so worried is because I had spotting at 12 and a bit weeks, but they didn't scan me or even examine me so I feel like I'm in limbo. I just have no idea if the little one is alright in there. It's making me so miserable and anxious. My next scan isn't until the 1st of August! X

maxiflump1 · 03/07/2018 11:31

@Athers666 it's so tough isn't it! You think the anxiety stops at 12 weeks but no! Having said what I did in he previous post I've just been speaking to my workmate who is pregnant but lives in a different trust area and she's heard the heartbeat at every appointment from 16 week on!! So think it's a bit of a lottery where you live tbh! Fingers crossed all goes ok today for you

Athers666 · 03/07/2018 11:34

Does sound like a lottery! I certainly will never be a winner, lol. The appointment is tomorrow afternoon, will update afterwards.

I moved recently so just met my new community midwife, she really has got my confidence, I feel loads better. She's gonna book me another scan due to the ongoing bleeding.

Alicejj8x · 03/07/2018 14:49

Does anyone else have a sicky lump in the back of their throat?

I had this earlier and was sick but I'm not sure if it's down to morning sickness as I don't exactly feel sick but it's just there
Google said it could be heart burn or reflux?

Murderino · 03/07/2018 16:54

@Alicejj8x no lump in the throat but currently feel like someone has their knee in the base of my spine 😫

Alicejj8x · 03/07/2018 17:01

@Murderino oh no really :( that must be so painful.

I am on a record today been sick twice!! This is new for me lol

hayleyfx · 03/07/2018 17:02

@HidCat jelly is by the far the best thing I’ve thrown up haha! (So gross sorry) also ice lollies and bananas. They’re all gentle and don’t hurt. If you think you’re going to be sick though don’t eat anything strong flavoured - like smoky bacon crisps. I did and it wasn’t a pleasant experience haha 🤢

My OH has now agreed to another scan so will be either this week or next, I’ll be 9-10 weeks. I feel sick and nervous just thinking about it again! I hope bub is still okay in there 🤞

clairehr · 03/07/2018 19:06

@Alicejj8x I have exactly that, it's there just before I get the strongest wave of nausea and then stays for a few hours before going and returning at the next wave.

@HidCat Yay! Lovely to see you jumping across from TTC buses. Huge congrats!

Alicejj8x · 03/07/2018 19:12

@clairehr
Oh do you!' This is so reassuring to no I'm not the only one/ going crazy lol

It's so weird the lump isn't it like you no something is there to
Come up but don't necessarily feel sick at that time but then your right it comes in waves on and off xx

peachesarenom · 03/07/2018 19:15

Oh good hayleyfx if they see a heartbeat at 9 weeks, miscarriage risk goes down to 2.5%

clairehr · 03/07/2018 19:20

@Alicejj8x Yep, it's a weird feeling, almost like some food is stuck at the top of your throat. I'm taking it all as a good sign though!

Had reassurance scan today, baby has nearly tripled in size in 8 days, measuring two days over estimated size, and heart beat is a healthy 151bpm. SO MUCH LOVE right now!

hayleyfx · 03/07/2018 19:47

@clairehr that’s amazing! So happy for you. Congrats 😊

@peachesarenom thanks, I’m so nervous for it but if all goes well it’ll be great reassurance!

That’s my scan booked for Friday 4.40pm. Terrified just thinking about it 😬

Alicejj8x · 03/07/2018 19:53

@clairehr that's exactly what it feels like!!
Yes I think it's a good sign I hope so anyway!!

Ah congrats that's so good!! :) yay!'

peachesarenom · 03/07/2018 20:00

I'm excited for you!

clairehr · 03/07/2018 20:06

@hayleyfx So excited for you! The reassurance is incredible 😊

hayleyfx · 03/07/2018 20:16

Thanks ladies! I should be 9+3 when I have the scan. Feel just as nervous as I did going for my 7 week scan! So scared but fingers crossed 🤞

Wiggle4 · 03/07/2018 21:42

@Athers666 I had my 16 week appointment last week and she found heartbeat with Doppler! Really does depend where you are! She said after 16 weeks I can just drop her a message if I want extra dopplers in between scans! Speaking of which I have a scan tomorrow and am worrying so much about it!

Athers666 · 03/07/2018 22:00

@Wiggle4 oh really? That's awesome that you can do that! Also, good luck with the scan for tomorrow of course x

Wiggle4 · 03/07/2018 23:04

@Athers666 thank you Smile and I hope your midwife is one that will give you that little bit of extra reassurance!

leanne9312 · 04/07/2018 06:20

Sorry to keep asking questions, does anyone else keep getting nose bleeds? I'm on aspirin everyday too which has thinned my blood 😊

HidCat · 04/07/2018 07:10

So jealous of everyone having scans etc. Need to ring the midwife at some point but I'm still too scared to do it. Going to do a digi at the end of the week and that should settle my nerves I think.

@Wiggle4 good luck with the scan today.

Murderino · 04/07/2018 09:20

@HidCat I know - I'm desperate for a scan haha booking appointment is on Friday and I think that should keep me satisfied for a while.

@leanne9312 I had one nosebleed about the time of bfp but none since, not sure it was related but very unusual for me.

leanne9312 · 04/07/2018 09:45

Ok thankyou worrying a bit. Waiting to be scanned now so nervous enough 😱😱😱

peachesarenom · 04/07/2018 09:46
