@MrsK21 congratulations 💕💕 so happy for you!
@Starfish762 got everything crossed for you today xx

Thanks ladies, really appreciate the support & well wishes. PANIC OVER little bubs is fine! Did not stop wriggling! 😂 All measurements looking good, just waiting for downs results in 1-2 weeks then will hopefully tell DD & others (we’d proceed regardless, it’s just 1 less thing to worry about isn’t it). Hematoma still there & it looked so big & close to baby 😩 Sonographer wasn’t overly concerned & said it was ‘only 4cm’ & should just keep coming away brown as it has been 🤞🏼 Other ladies with hematomas do you know anything about your measurements etc?

New due date is 31st May, so I’ve come forward nearly a week & am 13+2 today 😀 The relief is CRAZY eh!

Also have anterior placenta so may be waiting a while for kicks & worrying like the rest of you. I miss my stress free naive pregnancy with DD!

@Starfish762 hurrah, great news, and a great picture.

@sam921 I got my bfp at 9 dpo, but it's very early, most women don't get one until later.

@Starfish762 yay amazing! And you've skipped a whole extra week as well!
At least you know as well what's causing the brown bleeding so hopefully can put your mind at ease somewhat.

I'm so relieved all 3 of us had great 12 week scans, fingers crossed the rest of it is smoother and less anxiety ridden now xxx

@MrsK21 @Threnody I know! They say good things happen in 3’s ❤️

@starfish762 that's my little boys birthday, great month to be born in, mine starts the month on the 1st and my son's ends it on the 31st!
It's a fab feeling, skipping a whole week and seeing a healthy baby 😊
It's crazy how quickly everything's going, has it really been 9 weeks since you had that horrific, terrifying bleed, @Workingmama1??
Just heard on the news that Meghan and Harry lost a baby during the summer, we know it happens all the time, but you forget royalty can be affected too.

@RosieJess91 yes May is a great month! I’m 1st May too! My parents anniversary is 31st & my SIL, so really nice. DD is 20th June so if this bubs is slightly early they’ll be spaced out a bit nicer.

I got a notification about Meghan & Harry earlier when I was waiting for my scan earlier, was hoping it wasn’t a bad omens! Royals previously wouldn’t have talked about these experiences, thank god things have changed & people are more open!

@Starfish762 yayy excellent news! You're now due on my birthday! 💕 Really pleased everything is OK after your panic this morning.

@Starfish762 congratulations! So pleased for you. What a beautiful picture 💕💕

@Starfish762 birthday twins! Haha, how mad that we could share birthdays and have children that share the same birthday. That's a bit bonkers!
Most of my families birthdays are in May, barely get 3 or 4 days off without another Birthday in May!
I know Zara Tindall had a couple a few years ago, but she didn't really talk about them. It's nice that other mums are becoming more open about them, makes it feel slightly more normal, in the nicest sense... (If that makes any sense?!) It's good for more people to hear about it and realise just how common it is.

@Starfish762 @MrsK21 I know, such a relief we all had good scans. I still have a bit of anxiety, but nothing like as bad as it was going into the scan! Feels like ages until the 20 week scan. I'm not sure if I'll get a 16 week scan, as I've always had one before (as my first baby had cleft palate), but they haven't said anything yet.

@RosieJess91 that would be spooky, but lovely! 😀 May sounds like an expensive month for you already 😂

@Threnody def push for it if you feel you need it. I’m lucky that I’ve almost lost a week it doesn’t feel too long to wait till 20w, only 7 weeks away & with moving & Christmas that’ll prob go quick.

I’ve had aches & pains all over my abdomen since getting back from scan, weird! Anyone else had that after scan? The sonographer was so light too I’ve never had a scan where they’ve barely pushed it down, it’s usually the opposite!

Going to add my new EDD & 20w scan date to the list, apologies for the notification everyone will get 🙈

@Starfish762 I was very achey after my 20 week scan! Kinda hurt as she was doing it to be honest but I know they need to look for more detail at that one!

Ahhh and just like that I’m top of the list for the next scan 🙈

@Starfish762 congratulations on your scan! My haematoma was 1cm so not big at all but I’m sure @Workingmama1 was a fair size. The bigger they are the more blood you get obviously. Scary. I hadn’t really heard of them before until it happened to me. Browns defo good though I had brown for about two weeks after the initial red had stopped so be prepared for it to linger a little. I even had tiny brown specks in my discharge weeks later randomly here and there. Xx

I've just had a full on meltdown because my cars tyre was flat and I couldn't get my inflation kit to work properly. So I rang my dad (a mechanic) to ask him how to fix it, while still crying angry tears. Fixed it, got my tyre blown back up and my dad's going to buy me a new tyre as I can't afford it at the moment.
But my OH came out to check on me because I was taking a while and now he's pissed off at me because I was crying to my dad, even though I wasn't crying to my dad, I was just crying while speaking to my dad.
So now I'm sat in my kitchen, trying to stop crying because he's upset me, when I was already crying because today has been rubbish and my tyre made it worse.
I don't cry. I never cry. I hate crying. Pregnancy hormones are crazy. Why am I crying!?!? This is hardly the worst thing that's happened this year!!

@rosiejess91 ahh bless You, pregnancy is hard with all the hormones.

I sat outside and cried before because DD had like an hour long meltdown because she wanted an Ice lolly and we didn't have any.

@starfish yay to the scan and to jumping forward a week!

The next time someone updates the list can they put my 28 week scan on please? 22nd December at 15:10 I Think, it doesn't let me copy and paste the list

@Threnody hiiii I took a test after I read your message so it’s a really faint line like I have to tilt the first response test I’m so anxious even more. I’m scared what if it’s left over hcg? I did take a CB digi last Wednesday and it came up negative which is great but what if CB tests in higher levels of Hcg. :s

@sam921 which tests did you take? Was it a first response early response? They are the most sensitive, detecting hcg at 6mIU/ml. Clearblue digital are about 20mIU I think. Clearblue digital with weeks are 12mIU. I would test again tomorrow or the day after and see if the line has got darker. Fingers crossed for you.

@sam921 I'd wait a day or 2 as Well and test again see if it's darker.

I know how you feel, I got pregnant straight away after my MMC, like 6 weeks after it I was 5 weeks pregnant. I had a negative test 2 weeks after my MMC and then was getting very very faint lines on a cheapy test for about a week till a FRER showed a strong line

Sorry my last post seems really insensitive, I hope you get answers soon. Fingers crossed it's a new pregnancy 💗

I’ve added it for you @ew1990 xx

@RosieJess91 bless you ❤️ Men always seem to say the worst things at the worst time I think 💭😩 well mine definitely does 🤦🏼‍♀️ He probably feels like he wanted to be the hero? Rescue you and pay for a tyre, my DH gets huffy if my brother helps us out like that sometimes as he’s a mechanic and will sometimes help cover the parts costs. Let it all out as I know what it’s like. Once those tears start it’s hard to stop. Xx

@ew1990 thank you so much for your reply, how did your pregnancy go if you don’t mind me asking? Did it progress. I’m so anxious I literally can’t sleep. Just wondering by Sunday it’ll be cycle day 32 and that would mean 13dpo. I’m officially 10dpo i think?
