[quote CurryandSnuggle]@jun2022 oh dear! Is your partners ex a nightmare?

She can’t ruin your happiness though. The best “revenge” is being happy, she will hate that. Don’t give her any satisfaction to take away from this special time for you!![/quote]
A nightmare is an understatement! But we are expecting her to react badly so it won't be a surprise, and she isn't ruining this time for me

The chat around size of scan has me worried in that I realised I don’t have a clue what any of the “numbers” mean on my scan, can anyone break down the attached for me...? Minus the date and time 😂

Should have said was told 6+2 from that xx

beansprout55 · 06/11/2021 15:07

Does it say CRL anywhere? That's the size - which is what I'm panicking over!

destiEos · 06/11/2021 15:25

@beansprout55 that looks if anything bigger than average to me: www.hindawi.com/journals/isrn/2012/938583/tab4/ although IVF probably gives a more accurate GA.

rathernotshare · 06/11/2021 15:30

@pregnancydiaries I think those are the type and settings of the machine being used 😊

destiEos · 06/11/2021 15:31

@pregnancydiaries and the stuff on the scan is all machine settings, mine has the same, there's a bit on the left(not in the screenshot) that should give you the GA and I think other info is on the print out your given - don't have it with me ATM.

destiEos · 06/11/2021 15:32

*you're 😨

beansprout55 · 06/11/2021 15:37

Thanks @destiEos that helps.

Gang, feeling so low today. Cried on and off since last night and haven't got out of bed today and still crying. My CM has been tinged with brown for 10 days now. 6 days into it the consultant did the scan, saw a heartbeat and said it was all fine but I'm not convinced. Feel like my faith is weak at the mo, can't even face prayer today. Can feel a knotted feeling in my pelvis which I'm overthinking about too probs

blueberryy · 06/11/2021 15:51

@beansprout55 this time is just so hard. I had a good scan yesterday AM and by the PM I was worried again. It's just a hard time because we just care so much. Be kind to yourself. If you need to stay and bed and cry, that's ok xx

pregnancydiaries · 06/11/2021 15:54

Thanks ladies, doesn’t have any other info it other than my name and my hospital number - how strange 😂 xx

Roxystar23 · 06/11/2021 15:54

Today I have absolutely no symptoms which worries me a little. Even though I know I’ve peed on multiple sticks I really struggle with the lack of official confirmation until the booking appointment. As I’ve got no sickness or bloating today I’m even questioning if it’s in my head despite seeing the sticks with my own eyes.

pregnancydiaries · 06/11/2021 15:55

Oh @beansprout55 sorry to hear you’re not feeling great. I’ve heard from so many forums people getting scans and only feeling reassured for a short time, I think it’s totally normal and understandably so much worse with the spotting. Keep an eye on that pain though and definitely phone EPAU if it gets bad, phone them 10 times a day if need to and hopefully they’ll rescan you too.xx

destiEos · 06/11/2021 16:00

@beansprout55 yeah I was crying at breakfast today too, hormones everywhere 🤪

Try not to worry too much, I had some brown tinge too and then it went away. The thing is there's not much you can do, your body is sort of winging it here and you're just along for the ride. Try to rest and eat (and cry) and hopefully all will be well. Sorry you're having a crappy time of it, try to think of all the fun you'll have further down the line, that's what I'm doing - in between bouts of nausea obviously 😬

destiEos · 06/11/2021 16:03

@Roxystar23 - I wish I was back at that stage 🙂 although I did worry if I'd know if I stopped being pregnant. The little fella is only teeny, so takes a while for your body to make enough changes for you to notice - very jealous of no nausea! The daily conundrum between not eating and feeling stuck because stomach is empty and eating and feeling stuck because it isn't is not so much fun..

destiEos · 06/11/2021 16:04

*feeling sick (although I am stuck in the middle of the bloody ocean for another couple of days - roll on Monday!)

pregnancydiaries · 06/11/2021 17:47

@destiEos I hope that the airline are kind to you on your journey home and get a good few upgrades!!!!🤞🏼🤞🏼

hellointhere · 06/11/2021 19:14

I'm over 9 weeks now and I think I am starting to feel nausea, but also not certain that's the right word for it. It is nausea at times, but I have been feeling so tired and weak and achey, with a head ache too. I'm just trying to rest as much as possible. Really looking forward to my appointment phone call next week!

Prema112 · 06/11/2021 19:22

I've not had headaches at all this pregnancy so far and this eve I feel like I've been hit by a bus, was wondering why I'm so achey with a bad headache then remembered I had my flu jab today. Didn't think there were side effects but I'm pretty sure that's why I feel rough

Galaxy2022 · 06/11/2021 22:53

Hi all, I posted a little while back but have been away from MN between running after 1 year old and returning to work! Currently 6+5 and going through that horrific all-day morning sickness phase, feel like I forgot how tough it was despite being pregnant just last year!! I found/am finding again that ginger helps with sickness: ginger biscuits, diet ginger ale & ginger cordial. Hope that helps someone Smile Also can totally resonate with anyone struggling entertain others DC at the moment and the guilt that comes with it x

destiEos · 07/11/2021 04:30

@pregnancydiaries thanks, woke up this morning feeling fine, lasted for an hour and then back to nausea. I've beaten it back with eggs, chicken sausage and toast. This makes no sense to me either 😂

On the plus side the BA credit card allowed us to fly business class 🥳 Just the boat ride to the mainland I have to get through tomorrow morning 😅

Dogmum5 · 07/11/2021 07:46

Woke in the night to a really sore stomach, had the fear the worst was happening. Think it was just an upset stomach and no blood means its ok. I wish I had a home ultrasound kit just to be able to check everythings ok 😩

Are you suffering with vomiting? I am having baaaad stomach aches too. I figured out last night that I've done myself a muscle injury with all the heaving.
3yearstrying · 07/11/2021 11:59

Has anyone had experience with lines in a test getting lighter? When i first tested i was 6 weeks and a very dark line showed. I have just tested at 10 weeks and the line isnt as dark. After a miscarriage i am paranoid as hell! I dont want to pester the midwives when it may be all in my head but surely the line should be as dark if not darker?

rathernotshare · 07/11/2021 12:37

@3yearstrying I've heard they can get lighter later on as there's too much HCG in the urine. You are pregnant, stop testing!!! 😊
