@MomentOhm so sorry, take care of yourself ❤️

I have been offered my booking appointment at 11 weeks. Is this normal? NHS website says it should be done by 10 weeks?

I feel that my trust is really struggling as they wouldn’t accept an EPU referral when I had bleeding as I needed at least two symptoms of miscarriage, despite the fact I have had miscarriages before.

I had the same issue, by booking in appointment in next week when I'm 11 weeks, and my 12 week scan is also 2 days later. I think with all the bank holidays and reduced clinic hours my trust is struggling

Hi all, I've been following but not posted but wanted to say hi.

So sorry to those who have losses, I know how heartbreaking it is.

I've had my booking appointment with the midwife followed by a private scan. I'm measuring a few days ahead at 10+1 and due date is now estimated at 30th November. We were able to see babies hands and feet as well as arms and legs, plus the placenta forming and babies spine developing. They were very wriggly in their with a lovely strong heartbeat. My NHS scan is 24th May which still seems ages away but I'm hoping it will fly by now

@MomentOhm so sorry for what you’re going through xx

Wineisgreat · 05/05/2023 17:13

@MomentOhm I'm so sorry for your loss.xx

joyjoy23 · 05/05/2023 18:26

@OnNaturesCourse a little bit of pelvic pain in week 8 and also noticed my discharge has increased.

I also have fever today at 8+3 which is worrying me sick, hopefully my body can cope with it. I am so looking to the three-day weekend - I have barely been able to focus on work this week due to constantly feeling tired and sleepy.

Itonlytakesaminute · 05/05/2023 19:56

So sorry @MomentOhm

Wineisgreat · 06/05/2023 05:54

Morning all, anyone else really missing their morning coffee? It's not that I can't have one, it's that the smell makes me heave.

It used to soften the blow when DD (3) wakes up at 5.15 every morning! 😂🙈

smldnlove · 06/05/2023 06:28

@17caterpillars1mouse Welcome! And it’s great you have had a really positive scan, how exciting to see little bean wriggling! Love that! 24th not far away at all now!

I’ve got my private scan today and really hoping all is well and we get to see a heartbeat ✨

@Wineisgreat Hi! It’s funny I am really not missing my coffee! And I am a big coffee shop fan so thought I would be. But I reckon your 3 year old DD and 5am wake-up is a big factor here, what time does she go down at night?! My body seems to get up at 6am every morning since pregnant, no idea why, maybe preparing me for mum life 😂

99SR · 06/05/2023 06:54

@smldnlove i have my scan today too! Really nervous.. is this your first scan? X

smldnlove · 06/05/2023 07:05

@99SR Yes this is my first!! Is this your first too?! How far along are you now? Mines at 1:15pm and nerves are definitely starting to kick in now. I did 3 pregnancy tests this morning just out of nerves even though I know they wouldn’t pick up any change technically. Sending you lots of positivity for today ✨✨✨

99SR · 06/05/2023 07:16

@smldnlove mine too! I’m so nervous and anxious I feel sick. Mines is at 9.15am.. I had to phone EPU yesterday cause of pain in my shoulder but they said they weren’t concerned by it. I hope they are right. I’m 7+5 so hopefully see something! How far along are you? I have PTSD from early scans as I caught my MMC at one last year 🫣
sending you lots of positivity too 💓

Wineisgreat · 06/05/2023 07:19

@smldnlove she's down at 7pm but hubby gets up around 5.30am to go to work so she's used to be woken. (He's not quiet). I also work full time so 3pm I hit the slump lol.

Charlielechat · 06/05/2023 07:19

Good luck @smldnlove and @99SR ! Xx

Wineisgreat · 06/05/2023 07:19

Good luck to all those with scans today.xx

wannabemum38 · 06/05/2023 08:16

Good luck with scans today sending positive vibes x

smldnlove · 06/05/2023 08:53

@99SR Oh I can imagine you would be, sorry you had to go through that last year, hoping today goes really well for you and you get the reassurance you need 💕

Im 7+3 today so we are really close!!! Expecting them to put me a few days behind which seems to be common. Good luck for 9:15! Let us know how it goes x

Thanks all for your well wishes! Xx

ThomasinaLivesHere · 06/05/2023 09:24

Good luck with scans today!

I’m generally laid back and have no bad history with pregnancies but I remember almost shaking on the way to my first scan so can’t imagine what some of you are going through. Hope it’s good news x

99SR · 06/05/2023 10:02

Thanks for everyone’s well wishes!
My scan went amazing, measuring bang on 7+5. Seen a little heart beat! Trying not to get too ahead of myself as this happened last time but feeling positive today!
I told the lady about my past experience and she was so lovely about it all.

Mushroo · 06/05/2023 10:24

@99SR thats amazing news!! Congratulations

Mushroo · 06/05/2023 10:31

@smldnlove @Wineisgreat I’m not missing coffee at all which is bizarre as I was obsessed pre- pregnancy and would get really grumpy without it 😂

Ive not got an aversion just don’t fancy it. I have however treated myself to a decaf latte this morning so will see how that goes down.

I don’t have any food aversions or nausea, I really want some ‘proper’ symptoms to kick in now.
