November 2020 Babies - Thread 6!

[BuffaloCauliflower]

New thread for the November 2020 club - looking forward to more scan pictures!

I've been checking my maternity notes app this morning to see if there are an combined screening results yet (bloods taken only a week ago but hopeful of a quick result none the less!) - can see my notes were updated in the early hours of Saturday morning. Now I have the fear the results are back, it's bad news and I'm waiting on a letter...but we have long royal mail delays here with covid, stressing for a Monday morning 😭

@wannabebump I was told if it’s bad news on the combined screening they’ll call, if it’s all fine they just send a letter/update notes. I’d have thought that would be the same everywhere?

@Buffalocauliflower yey 😁🥳

@BuffaloCauliflower lovely scan pic!!!! 🥰

@BuffaloCauliflower it probably is the same everywhere, just panicking. Can't see anything else updated so assuming it's those results. Trying to be calm as NT measurement on scan was fine!

Excellent news @BuffaloCauliflower!

To the pp who doesnt have their scan date yet, I would chase that up. I am due on the 26th and my scan is at 13+1 next week so I would have thought I am one of the last. You should have yours by now, especially if you are due before me.

Thanks all! Finally feel like I can get excited now

@wannabebump I’m sure everything is fine and they would have called if it wasn’t

wannabebump EDD 22nd Nov.

I got in contact with the community midwife last week to ask about the scan as was starting to worry I had been 'lost'. She said she would look into it. I don't have any other contacts yet. So hope she will come back to me with an answer.
I'm also a high risk pregnancy, and was expecting to meet my consultant by 12 weeks, but again no word yet.

@IAmSeriousAndDontCallMeShirley I’d call again today, don’t wait. Call the midwife unit and say you’re concerned you’ve still not heard.

@Hancock2020 thrush is much more common in pregnancy and it could be the beginnings of that. Also could be bacterial vaginosis, which some women are more prone to. Worth giving your GP a ring to drop off a urine sample (just in case it’s a UTI) and they could also advise you on the best treatment if it is thrush or BV.

Really lovely clear scan photo @buffalocauliflower

I’ve no idea how different trusts do things @IAmSeriousAndDontCallMeShirley but it seems quite late to be giving out appointments now. Definitely chase your scan!

@BuffaloCauliflower what a cutie! Glad all went well

Thanks all DH very excited too.

I’m so tired today after sleeping badly last night. I’ve got an essay due Friday and I just can’t be bothered. Already got an extension for pregnancy exhaustion but it just needs to be adequate at this stage. This module has been literally cursed for me, it’s already my second attempt

@wannabebump My notes were updated on Saturday night too at 00:14. How bizarre! I've checked the details umpteen times and nothing's changed. I might phone them today. I have a couple of questions for the midwife so might just throw that in at the end!

Hi all, may I join? I’ve been lurking for a few weeks and waiting for my scan which was this morning! All good and I’m so relieved!

Lovely scan pic @BuffaloCauliflower!!

@ChocoholicMama Lovely scan picture! Is baby relaxing with its arms under its head?!

@Addler Lol, it does look like it doesn’t it!! It was a very quick scan so apart from a little wiggle I didn’t see much.

This is not the nicest subject but is anyone else experiencing a build up of phlegm in their throat? I’ve just got over the morning sickness but now this has started making me throw up. I feel like I’m just destined to be miserable throughout this whole pregnancy.

Congratulations to everyone who’s scans have went well today. The pictures are lovely!

@ChocoholicMama @BuffaloCauliflower great scan pics both!! Congrats

Lovely scan pics ladies!

I also had my scan today, measuring 12 weeks exactly. Baby was such a wriggler, it was lovely to see.

DP's breath smells like salami today. He hasn't eaten any salami. I can't go near him, it's horrendous. Not sure if it's a pregnancy-related super sense of smell or he has a deathly disease that's making him smell like cured meats.

Had my first scan this morning and all looks okay! Baby was jumping about all over the place. Due date is 21st November.

If anyone needs maternity clothes, dorothy perkins has a sale on but it ends today. I just bought x2 Jean's and a top for £36

Congrats to everyone who had their scans today.
Just got back from mine and it’s not good news unfortunately. I’m devastated.
Good luck to you all.

@Happythecrocodile I'm so sorry for you :( look after yourself xxx
