@Fanny81 It does feel like a lifetime, I keep going back to certain days in my photos and see what I was doing that day say two weeks ago and thinking ‘wow that’s gone quick’ days go slow but weeks do seem to pass by.
Yes defo see how scan goes, I’ve had two scans but the first one was 10 weeks and they basically just said yes, a head, two arms, two legs, and a heartbeat. The second scan was a poor quality, baby in funny position, they asked me to go for a wee (bladder was too full)! then on both sides, go for a walk etc, the sonographer just said there was a heartbeat and to book in at the desk for 20 week scan and we will have a better look then.
The wait is incredibly tough, trying to be your normal self when you feel anything but your normal self. I didn’t tell many people other than immediate family about pregnancy anyway, same group of people know exactly just what’s going on at the mo. Helps with DS as parents are doing school runs etc if I don’t feel like seeing anyone, I work from home so I’m very lucky I don’t have to explain my current sorry state! I take sunglasses everywhere incase of an outburst, the celebs wear them when it’s raining to hide, that’s good enough for me!
Id defo recommend ARC, they’re there just to listen to you cry if you need to, sometimes it’s less lonely crying to someone rather than sat alone, even if you can’t speak, your releasing what’s inside and you can’t keep that all in.
You too. x makes us both feel less isolated when someone’s going through the same. Take care x
