Due November 2023 Part 3

@mldn @travellinglife

Good luck @MeganC104. I have my private scan today im pretty nervous.

Room for one more? I've been cautious about joining a group due to previous mmcs, only just coming to terms with the fact this pregnancy seems to be going ok, it feels like every time I do something to recognise it I'm cursing it to fail. I've been under recurrent mc clinic and epau so have had a couple of early scans. I have felt so detached to be honest, only agreed to have booking appointment last week after 10w scan and had dating scan yesterday. Due 1st November, second baby.

Still feeling nauseous most days, on cyclizine which I think helps, but it doesn't get rid of it. Luckily only being sick every couple of days. But the exhaustion and hormones are intense 😩. Looking forward to getting into the second trimester and hopefully feeling more normal!

@Blondie1024 @38andtrying @MeganC104 hope all goes well for you all with your scans today xx

@GemmaJen I can totally relate to your worries after previous losses too. I'm 9 weeks this weekend and the anxiety doesn't get easier, I wish you all the best and hope we're all here until the end 😊 xx

@MeganC104 me too! Excited but nervous. What time are everyone's scans?
Mines 11.45 so not toooo long to wait!

Congrats @GemmaJen

So many scans today! Good Luck to everyone ❤ @MooseWL @MeganC104 @Blondie1024 @38andtrying

Good luck to all the scans today 🤍🤍

Thanks for good wishes, my scan is again 1.30, super nervous about it, everytime I've felt like I'm going to get bad news, last time I did as baby b heartbeat stopped, so super anxious and worried ill get the same news today about baby a. Fingers crossed all goes ok

Thinking of all those having scans today ❤️

@38andtrying can only imagine the anxiety you’re feeling having gone through what you have! Huge heaps of love & luck that baby a is super strong & you get to see them happy inside your tummy later today xx

Good luck to all those with scans booked for today! how exciting :D

Thank you everyone
@MooseWL mines 11:15 but got to go in early to do bloods for the tests I think so leaving soon

So as you ladies know I’ve been so anxious with previous losses and then having a bleed next to baby this time, I’m still spotting every now and then but trying to not worry about it every time 😅
this anxiety just isn’t going away, got 3 weeks left until my 12 week scan and I keep worrying about it!
Ive felt really well most of the 1st trimester so far but almost 10 weeks now and the nausea has been every day this week, just feeling sick all the time 😂

I have a scan(s) today at our local uni specialising in radiology. It’s from 11:30-1 with four students scanning me. Should be interesting and another chance to see baby (I’m between 9- 10 weeks and so far measuring ahead) but feeling really nervous! The local EPU work with them and suggested I got in touch as they had sessions coming up. So it’s another reassurance scan and of course the students benefit from it. I’ve been taking progesterone for over a week now since spotting and it’s stopped but a lot of symptoms have also reduced (I didn’t have extreme symptoms anyway so far, mainly tiredness, sore boobs and sometimes nausea and food aversions). I’m hoping that soon I can get over these feeling of always thinking something isn’t right and really hope everything is still ok today!

Good luck to everyone with scans today.

Anyone else got a little bump already? I'm being a bit paranoid and wearing baggier clothes to work so nobody notices. Not feeling particularly bloated otherwise. Hope it's a good sign and means baby is still growing away happily in there.

@Skyla01 Yes, I do. Its not even little. I look five months already.

Good luck for all the scans today !!
I'm on countdown till tomo!

Good luck everyone having scans today, thinking of you. And congratulations @GemmaJen - I really relate to everything you said. My dating scan isn’t until nearly 14 wks, so still a couple of weeks to wait.

Just had the 12 week scan and turns out I'm further along than I thought and it might be an October baby 😅😅😅 I assumed the appointment will be quick but I don't know if it's because all the measurements actually take awhile or because the baby wasn't moving into the right direction, but we were in there for 35 minutes

Also. Any ideas as to whether it's boy or girl for those of you that know the skull/nub theories

Good luck to everyone else having scans today. Fingers crossed for us all. My appointment isn't till 4pm as I'm at work. But the days dragging.

@Skyla01 my stomach is definitely bigger but this is my third so I don't think there's gonna be much hiding it soon.

@anna2101 ahh lovely pic, congratulations !

I defo have a bump! First pregnancy & my lower belly has a pouch for sure. My mum & stepdad are coming to London tomorrow for the weekend, originally to watch me run the marathon, but no way I could do that, so I’ve told them I am unwell & we can just be tourists instead! Imagine they’re thinking something is up as running marathons is my fav thing! Anyway, they’re the first people we will tell - so excited & nervous. We are going for a drink (alcohol free for me!) up the Shard & I’ll give them this card with a bottle of bubbles that has a similar sticker on to the one attached! Exciting (ignore my nails they’re getting done this afternoon 😅) x

Aww @Mldn that's lovely. We're looking forward to sharing the news too. Sorry about missing your marathon. I'd love to do London but realistically I won't be running a marathon for a few years- got to pick my battles and wait for kids to get a bit bigger so I have the time to train.

Glad I'm not the only one showing already!

@Skyla01 thank you! Ah London marathon is one of the best experiences, I’ve been lucky enough to do it a few times. My training was going perfect but as soon as I fell pregnant it plummeted. I went overseas to run a half marathon a couple days after I found out & it was the hardest thing ever, even though the week before I’d tan 12 miles absolutely fine!! So deferring the marathon was defo wise. We will tell bfs parents next weekend & then we go away for a few weeks. So I’ll be 16 weeks once back & then we will share the news with friends etc xx
