2014 October Rainbows (late Septembers welcome!) (13 babies born!)

[Lizziemm]

Good luck for tomorrow whigfield! What time is your scan? Mine is Wednesday afternoon....2 more sleeps... Although i haven't slept properly for the last couple of nights And I know it's because I'm anxious about the scan.

Am also jealous you are feeling movement ourturnnext! I didn't feel anything with my dd until 17/18 weeks so not expecting it before that this time. But would be awesome if I did!

 

[whigfield]

Good luck frustrated and Lizzie!

Mine is at 1.30pm UK time tomorrow. I just found baby's heartbeat again on the doppler, so I feel a little safer. At least if baby has passed tomorrow on the scan, I know it would have happened in between now and then. I hate thinking like this but until I get proof of a good scan it will always be at the front of my mind!

 

[Lizziemm]

I feel the same whigfield! I found heartbeat on Doppler this morning too, will try again weds morning before the scan. It was at the 12 week scan last time that I discovered of had a mmc, so can't help but feel freaked out and always thinking the worst. I hate that I feel like this!

 

[whigfield]

I hope it will pass one day and we can settle back and enjoy our pregnancies.

 

[AllStar]

Have a lovely holiday castaway.

Good luck to all with scans in the next few days I still haven't got a date for mine yet.

We went for a walk to feed the ducks this morning as weather was so good but it took about an hour and a half there and back and since I've had a really sore back. Just went to bathroom (it's 9.30pm now) and I'm spotting a tiny but. More like brown coloured cm when I wiped. So obviously now I'm panicking. Will wait it out til morning and phone midwife. Not going to sleep tonight

 

[whigfield]

Oh no Allstar! Hopefully it's just nothing. Rest up hun.

 

[Lizziemm]

Oh allstar, hope it stops quickly. Keep up posted

 

[ourturnnext]

Aww allstar sorry to read that. Hopefully its just a sign that you've overdone it and just need some rest. My SIL spotted at 12-weeks and it turned out to be nothing xxx

 

[CastawayBride]

My scan is tomorrow at 4:45...good luck everyone with your scans

I hope everything is ok!!

 

[whigfield]

Hope you're okay today AllStar!

So.. Scan in about 5 hours. What to do with myself?

 

[AllStar]

Thanks everyone. No spotting this morning which is good, will keep an eye on it but hopefully if I take it easy I won't see any more. Docs say (as it's them I was told to call instead of mw) because the hospital is so busy and I'll be getting a scan soon anyway it's best just to wait. Thinking maybe of getting a Doppler now as if I'd had one last night and was able to hear hb I wouldn't be worrying as much as I am now.

Good luck for scans today x

 

[ourturnnext]

The waiting is the worst, I paced the house ranting and raving until my husband escorted me to the car and drove a very long way round to the hospital haha!! So glad our 20-week scan is 8.45am.

Good luck Whigfield and Castaway and anyone else I've missed out xxx

 

[Laelani]

Good luck to everyone with scans. Allstar I hope it's nothing and you will be able to get some rest once you speak with the midwife.

I just wanted to pop in and say that I finally made it to 12 weeks! Just 3 more days to go before passing by that miscarriage date and finally being about to breathe and enjoy this pregnancy -- well here's hoping at least.

I had exactly the same a few days ago had little bit of brown spotting and like you say i have my doppler so listened in and everything is ok and now spotting has gone. I have had a bad cough and this can cause spotting with irritation to the cervix.

Good luck with all the scans coming up im so jealous that you are all so far ahead my 13 week scan is mid april.

 

[Lizziemm]

Glad the spotting has stopped Allstar!
Good luck whigfield, update us as soon as you can!

 

[AllStar]

Thanks ttclou, that makes me feel a bit better x

Thanks Lizzie x

Looking forward to the scan updates!

 

[whigfield]

Well I had the scan!

Baby is measuring 13+1 which means my ovulation date is likely a day out (I suspected, as baby was only 1 day behind at every other scan too) and laid there very peacefully while measurements were being taken! Fluid on the back of the neck measured 1.6mm which I heard is pretty good! And had my bloods done to get my risk back for downs syndrome. The sonographer showed us baby's little hands, feet, arms and legs and right at the end it started wriggling and kicking around, basically all like, "That's enough now mum!"

 

[Lizziemm]

Awe such cute pics! So happy for you whigfield. Congratulations x
