@MamaSJ15 I don't feel pregnant most days, I even forget. I have tiredness sometimes, veiny boobs but my boobs don't even remotely hurt in the slightest 🤷🏻‍♀️ and vivd dreams. That's it. I was like this when I was pregnant with my dd so maybe I'm heading towards another girl? How far along are you x

MamaSJ15 · 24/11/2022 14:33

@candycrush789 yeah I'm tired more than usual too but that was mostly because of a cold and sinus infection but that's clearing now. I'm trying to appreciate the lack of symptoms as much as possible to be honest! It was fairly similar with my DD too. I am 6+3 today, how about you?

candycrush789 · 24/11/2022 14:36

@MamaSJ15 I'm 6 weeks roughly today but I have a feeling I might be a few more days ahead. With my son I had nausea and with the baby we lost I had everything going, even hg 🤦🏻‍♀️ so I'm hoping this is a good sign! I've thought girl from the start. I was worrying about blighted ovum but my hcg levels are fine and I think there lower with blighted ovum but may be wrong! X

Hello everyone. Just wondering if anyone else has any experience with subchrionic hematoma? I had a massive bleed (and cramping) on Monday and thought it was over but had a scan on Tues and they could see a heartbeat 💓 and a big subchrionic hematoma which had caused the bleed. I'm now having another bleed and fortunately I have another scan booked for tomorrow anyway so will see if everything is ok then. Just wondering if anyone else is in a similar boat - finding it super stressful even though I know it's more common with ivf babies. I'm only 6 weeks 3 days so it's still super early...

MamaSJ15 · 24/11/2022 14:44

@candycrush789 how many children do you have? It's so hard to know isn't it, every pregnancy is so different. All my siblings have had a girl first then a boy so I'm interested to find out what we're having to see if we follow the trend!

@99pctpractice that sounds really worrying, I'm sorry I don't know anything about that but I hope all is well when you have your scan tomorrow 🤞

candycrush789 · 24/11/2022 14:52

@99pctpractice I had a massive one with my 1st pregnancy it was 25cm x 15cm. I got given 25% chance of having a miscarriage. By the time I had my 20 week scan it had all been reabsorbed and that resulted in my 7yo dd! It's scary and could go either way, but bed rest, no sex, and take it easy! Get your oh to bring you lots of goodies and let you chill out 😘 good luck you've got this!

@MamaSJ15 I have two! Dd who's 7 and ds who's nearly 5 🤗 oh really? See my sister has had girl boy boy, where as dh siblings are varied! I'm sure this one is another girl! I'll be looking forward to finding out. Are you finding out the gender? X

99pctpractice · 24/11/2022 15:22

Wow @candycrush789 that is huge!! Mine was 13x4 on Tuesday so a lot smaller. I'm hoping it won't get any bigger!

Rutennotou · 24/11/2022 16:26

Hi ladies, had my scan. Went very well! Was a difficult scan as they couldn't really see yet again lol but after 15 minutes they got a decent view. Measuring 8+4 to 9 weeks, heart beating away ♥️ So I've been discharged from EPU.

heartbroken22 · 24/11/2022 16:35

@Rutennotou congratulations! That's lovely to hear xx

heartbroken22 · 24/11/2022 16:37

@Mamaoftwooo thank you ❤️. Do you think this will be your last pregnancy?

Hjudge56 · 24/11/2022 16:39

@MamaSJ15 i had one of those two days ago! I was walking around London and kept thinking I’d started my period hut actually I was just sweating everywhere profusely from rushing around Harrods 😂😂😂 (sorry TMI!!!) I have shamefully been doing a cheapie every morning as I just can’t quite believe it yet but I think after the scan I will feel different. Have you got your antenatal appointment booked in too? Or are you having that with your scan?

Coffeeforlife · 24/11/2022 17:04

@Hjudge56 I'm so jealous of you walking round Harrods, sweat and all!x

MamaSJ15 · 24/11/2022 17:31

@candycrush789 yes we will find out. As we already have a DD we have most things for a girl but would need boy stuff if we were having a boy and I like to be prepared 😊

Mamaoftwooo · 24/11/2022 18:38

@heartbroken22
Yes definitely my last pregnancy, i always wanted 2 children, but I had a HG, SPD and a traumatic birth with my daughter, took me 6 years to have another baby, my sons birth was an absolute dream but HG was a lot worse 🫣🤣 then we decided we weren’t done with babies and we’d love one more 🤣 hoping HG won’t show its ugly face this time with my son being so young but think we all know it will come as I’ve had it both with my son and daughter, I was so worried when I fell pregnant a couple of months back as I didn’t get sick, but unfortunately that pregnancy ended in a miscarriage last month

what about you, will this be your last? X

MamaSJ15 · 25/11/2022 10:53

Has anyone had their flu vaccine? I know you can get it free on the NHS if you're pregnant (in Wales at least) but if I've not yet seen a midwife to confirm pregnancy will they allow it? I have emailed the GP surgery to ask but I'm just interested if anyone else has managed to get theirs yet.

candycrush789 · 25/11/2022 12:01

I don't feel pregnant at all today 🤷🏻‍♀️ no sore boobs, not really that much tiredness. I have cramps every now and then. Does anyone else feel like this? I have a scan on Tuesday and beginning to think there going to tell me there's nothing there 🤷🏻‍♀️ I've worried myself about having a blighted ovum. I hope everything is OK my anxiety is sky high today!

MamaSJ15 · 25/11/2022 12:12

@candycrush789 yes! I haven't felt pregnant the last couple of days. Been tempted to buy a test just to make sure but I feel silly to do it. You haven't got long to wait for your scan. I'm sure everything is all good 😊 but I understand the worry!

JJbaby · 25/11/2022 12:13

@candycrush789
I'm exact same today.. Crampy, so anxious today and scan not till next Friday..😏

candycrush789 · 25/11/2022 12:16

@MamaSJ15 @JJbaby had all hcg levels checked and all was fine 🤷🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️just have a constant feeling of anxiety and cant shake the worry 😞😞

Same and my scan is also next Friday x

MamaSJ15 · 25/11/2022 13:47

Okay so I've just been to boots on my lunch break and spent £20 on tests 🤦🏼‍♀️ feel like I need a little reassurance as I've still got over a week till the scan!

candycrush789 · 25/11/2022 14:20

@MamaSJ15 I need to do this but I'm stopping myself, think it's because even after my babies heart stopped the lines were still soooooo dark but obviously I didn't know! I'm terrified about my scan on Tuesday, I've noticed my areolas may of got slighter bigger? But other than that, nothing!

JJbaby · 25/11/2022 14:39

@candycrush789 @@MamaSJ15 i went to the pharmacy on my lunch and only because us was so busy, I resisted... I feel like next week is forever away.. iv on and off cramps here and there which is stressing me out. 😲

99pctpractice · 25/11/2022 15:05

Hey - just wondering. I had a scan today (6w4) and they commented that I had an irregular shaped gestational sac. He said it didn’t necessarily mean bad news (everything else looked good, there was a heartbeat and growing crl whatever that means), but might be an indicator of mc. This wasn’t mentioned at my previous scan (at 6w1, somewhere else, and with wanda so the imaging was much better). Just wondering if anyone else has any experience of this? I’ve had to stop googling because it kept coming up on US sites that reference “spontaneous abortion” 🤦‍♀️ I only had the scan today because I had booked it already before I had the one on 6w1 after I had some bleeding and now I kind of wish I hadn't...!

MamaSJ15 · 25/11/2022 18:05

I felt mental buying more tests today but I've done a FRER and a Digi in same wee and feel much better now.
