@FlyingHighFlyingLow best of luck tomorrow x

@FlyingHighFlyingLow so glad you got a bit of relief with the tests! Best of luck tomorrow - keep us updated. X

SnookyPook · 12/04/2023 21:36

@myfirsttimehere ah yeah it doesn't sound like your first was low-weight so even more intriguing! My due date is currently estimated for 30th Oct based on LMP but guess I'll have a better idea after the scan 🙂

I bought a maternity dress because it's in the sale and tried it on. I swear I already have a bump 😲 even my husband thought so. I'm only 11 weeks but this is 2nd baby and I know you can show earlier.

Also craving red meat at the moment which I've heard is common and a sign of iron deficiency. Anyone else?

I’m so worried. I woke up this morning and have had a small bit of blood when I wiped after no spotting at all this pregnancy. EPU have managed to fit me in at 9:30 today due to my history of MC but I’m absolutely terrified.

MeganC104 · 13/04/2023 08:10

@LittleBeanie hope you're ok and that it's just a little bit of left over implantation blood or something else completely benign.

ExcitedandNervousC1 · 13/04/2023 08:10

@LittleBeanie thinking of you! It will be good to get reassurance early this morning though we have seen so many women on here have small bits of bleeding amd still very healthy pregnancies so fingers crossed 🤞

SnookyPook · 13/04/2023 08:29

@LittleBeanie completely understand your worry but a little bit of spotting does seem extremely common so hopefully it's nothing and your little one is all good. Sending big hugs and hand holds. Let us know how you get on. X

LittleBeanie · 13/04/2023 10:54

Thank you so much for the messages of reassurance @SnookyPook @ExcitedandNervousC1 @MeganC104.

Just got back from EPU and all looking fine. Baby measuring 9 weeks and had a heartbeat. No visible reason for the bleeding, haven’t had any since and EPU wasn’t worried. I still feel so anxious but was nice to have the reassurance! She has also offered me another reassurance scan between the two standard NHS ones which I’m definitely going to be taking up.

NatGee · 13/04/2023 11:08

@MeganC104 Yes, I have meat cravings so I just go ahead and eat. I hear protein intake also helps with nausea so I haven't held back

FlyingHighFlyingLow · 13/04/2023 11:18

Thank you every one for the well wishes. Just back from EPAU and baby was fine! So relieved. Measuring right stage with a heartbeat and the lady was so lovely pointing out its head and limb buds etc. No obvious internal cause for bleeding and pain but they suspect given my history of cervical ectropions in response to progesterone that's the most likely cause. Could that be the case for you also @LittleBeanie ?

38andtrying · 13/04/2023 11:31

@FlyingHighFlyingLow I'm delighted for you, that's really great news x

LittleBeanie · 13/04/2023 12:00

@FlyingHighFlyingLow I’m so glad your scan went well today. EPU did say it was most likely a cervical ectropion in my case too. I had no idea they were so common!

SnookyPook · 13/04/2023 12:15

@LittleBeanie @FlyingHighFlyingLow so glad you've both had great outcomes and reassurance! Got mine tomorrow morning and getting so impatient now. Just want to know everything is ok. I'm feeling completely surreal about it all at the moment.

LittleBeanie · 13/04/2023 15:04

@SnookyPook will be thinking of you tomorrow! Keeping everything crossed it goes well and you get the reassurance you need

38andtrying · 13/04/2023 15:07

i have my scan tomorrow at 2.30, anxiety starting to get very high now, its a bit surreal preparing to be told that a heartbeat has stopped and hoping that baby a is still thriving. I hate saying it but if baby b is not going to make it i hope it happens sooner rather than later as past trimester 1 it can be even more complicated for the surviving baby.

I am praying for at least one healthy heartbeat tomorrow and of course would love 2 heartbeats and be told all will be ok but thats overly optimistic

Mldn · 13/04/2023 15:59

I just went for a wee & noticed blood in my underwear 😞 nothing when I wiped & not a lot of blood but I’ve yet to have any spotting at all so it’s knocked me for 6. Pregnancy really is so hard.

vix_85 · 13/04/2023 16:21

@Mldn sorry to hear you're concerned. Keep and eye and get to your EPU or GP if you keen if it progresses. I have so many pains today which is worrying me. It really is so stressful this stage x

Sb86 · 13/04/2023 16:30

Will be thinking of you @38andtrying ❤️

vix_85 · 13/04/2023 16:32

@38andtrying sending all the best wishes for tomorrow x

SnookyPook · 13/04/2023 17:05

Thanks @LittleBeanie !

@38andtrying will be thinking of you tomorrow afternoon and fingers crossed for the best possible outcome. X

Sb86 · 13/04/2023 17:25

Will be thinking of you too @SnookyPook ❤️

Runnergirl1 · 13/04/2023 17:35

@FlyingHighFlyingLow and @LittleBeanie so happy your scans went well. Lovely news. @38andtrying Good luck tomorrow x

greentreeseverywhere · 13/04/2023 18:07

Had my scan today and showed measuring bang on 7+1 . The ivf clinic have waved me off so I need to contact my midwife now!

Due date is 29th November but a friend said they don't let you go over with IVF? I can't see anything about this anywhere but she's had 2 so she must know? has anyone else heard this?

Hope everyone has a restful weekend

Hi, how are you getting on, anymore blood?
