Congrats on the scans @KatyCherry23 @Calgoose and @Taylortyler, lovely to see bubs.

I’m on an antibiotic for 10 days for tonsillitis. It’s been working on me for about six weeks but I didn’t go to the doctor because the pain was very intermittent. Glad I went now as the pain is more intense today.

What are blood tests like?🤢😂

holb54 · 10/09/2020 19:23

@chloxhunt I found them great but the midwife was good and I'm a regular blood donor which helps! Best is just relax, don't look and the fluids you'll have had will help with the veins 💗

@holb54 ahh okay thank you! I've never had my blood taking before 😂

holb54 · 10/09/2020 19:31

@chloxhunt yeah? They'll put a band on your upper arm to build up the blood and when they find a vein they'll put the needle in (feels like a small scratch) and they'll release the band while they take a few vials for testing! Should only take 5 minutes 😊

@chloxhunt Blood tests are easy, don't worry! It'll be quick, and it's just a little scratch. 🙂

chloxhunt · 10/09/2020 19:49

@holb54 @SnickerdoodleSnek ahhh thank you guys! Think I'm more scared about it hurting than anything lol it's not like I don't get the flu jab every year 😂

Wavescrashingonthebeach · 10/09/2020 19:51

Im due in March so can i jump on please ladies Smile

Oldermum80 · 10/09/2020 20:04

@can’t believe I’m 12 weeks tomorrow. Never expected I’d get this far after an early and then missed miscarriage. Feels so surreal and even after two scans I can’t comprehend that there really is something in there! Just got to get to next week and hope all is still ok on the scan.

holb54 · 10/09/2020 20:04

Welcome @Wavescrashingonthebeach! When are you due?

chloxhunt · 10/09/2020 20:06

@Oldermum80 hoping all is still well! Whens ur next scan?

LuHen · 10/09/2020 20:20

@Mrs1989 I can only speak for myself but I had a very lovely scan lady and although they apply a little pressure it was not painful in any way at all. Only slightly uncomfortable because I needed to pee and made me feel a bit urgent Blush! I had a great experience and I wouldnt hesitate to let them know if you are feeling discomfort Smile

holb54 · 10/09/2020 20:27

@Wavescrashingonthebeach I'm due March 15th 💕

Oldermum80 · 10/09/2020 20:29

chloxhunt · 10/09/2020 20:32

ChubbyMumFromSkye · 10/09/2020 20:38

Hey everyone,

Just catching up on the thread.

So pleased to hear you had goos news @KatyCherry23 💞

Lovely scans @Taylortyler and @Calgoose it's so lovely getting to see baby wriggling around! ☺️🌟

@Phie04 😂😂 I was thinking that too 🙋🏻‍♀️ 5'6 and also very chubby!

ChubbyMumFromSkye · 10/09/2020 20:38

Also welcome @Wavescrashingonthebeach !

Wavescrashingonthebeach · 10/09/2020 20:46

@ChubbyMumFromSkye

Thanks and hi!

@chloxhunt

Oh this sounds intruiging, may i have a rundown of the goss? Is your friend a bit nuts?!

Mrs1989 · 10/09/2020 20:46

Welcome @Wavescrashingonthebeach! I am due 27th March too, unless dates get adjusted at my scan on Monday!

@Oldermum80 I feel the same way - it’s completely surreal still. I had a private scan almost two weeks ago. I had not had many symptoms and was convinced there couldn’t really be a baby there, so I was shocked to see a baby wriggling away and waving at us! We paid to have a video and I have had to watch it quite a bit since to remind myself baby’s in the right place! I am hoping and praying things are still ok. My manager is the only person who knows and was over the moon when I told her about my scan and the other day said she was glad I was feeling better but I found myself saying “mmm....hopefully it’s all ok at the next scan too”. I just can’t allow myself to be excited yet. Had an early miscarriage before this and was terrified after that that I was not going to have it easy trying to have a baby. I’m 11+5 today so just hoping it all starts feeling a bit more real on Monday. I’m hope you do too Smile

@Luhen thanks for the reassurance! I know it will be more uncomfortable than painful because of the full bladder and it’s nothing to actually worry about. It will just be strange when I’ve been so gentle for weeks and weeks now when it comes to touching my belly! xxx

Wavescrashingonthebeach · 10/09/2020 20:48

@Mrs1989

Thanks! I havent had many symptoms either thats why my scan cant come quick enough!!

chloxhunt · 10/09/2020 20:54

@Wavescrashingonthebeach hahaha I guess she is 😂😂 basically, she's also pregnant a few weeks ago i was spotting and thought i was miscarrying and she was their for me and the when i said everything was okay nothing like literally nothing. A couple of times this week I've posted something about my pregnancy (everyone i work with know because there's a lot of things I'm not allowed to do) and seconds later with the same emoji she'll post something about hers so it made me feel like she was trying to one up me and even my boyfriend thought she wasn't talking to me because I was pregnant she just saw that i put her on restrictions on Facebook and deleted her off of Snapchat so she couldn't see what I'd post so I can post without worrying if she will. And apparently my "excuses" pissed her off and they're not valid enough to have done that so she told me to remove her as she's done with all the drama I didn't do anything wrong
