Welcome, mamarix! So great you've had a scan already and things seem well! When is your due date, so I can add you to the front page.

Also, if there are any new ladies not on the front page yet, please remind me your due dates again. I tend to miss a lot over the weekends. Especially this one when I've been so ill! Sorry if I've missed you!
 
Hi, I am several pages back 😆 ha ha! My due date is 11th Oct. thank you x x x
 
I have that worry too, I hate that I have to wait until 12wks to confirm there's even a baby in there!

I bought a digital test, going to take it tomorrow. I am so nervous, terrified that it'll say not pregnant like they always have before! I'll be 13dpo & I'm getting strong bfps now, it should be positive.. surely?!

How is everyone feeling this evening?

I'll definitely be finding out the gender, but we're keeping it a secret until birth. I want that time of me and hubs being the only ones who know. :cloud9:

I'm so envious you have the restraint to keep secrets. I'm hopeless.

I also am with those of you who fear being told at a scan there's not a baby in there. It's so irrational.
 
I am definitely finding out the sex. If it's a boy, I don't have to buy much, but if it's a girl, I have almost nothing for her to wear. DH is calling the baby Princess to get the girl vibes going lol

I have been feeling pretty good today. A little nauseous and dizzy. Been cleaning like crazy. I organized Tristan's closet yesterday haha

I opted out of all the tests for my last pregnancy. If there was something wrong with him that wasn't seen on a scan, nothing would change anyway. Although it would be nice to find out the sex earlier than 20 weeks.

My first appt is tomorrow! Not sure if I am just getting blood drawn or a scan but we will see :)

And welcome to all the new ladies!
 
It's great that everyone is offered early scans! We don't have any scans until 12wks! It's awful. Not sure if we get to hear the heartbeat earlier, I hope so!

I don't think I'd be able to keep the sex to myself, keeping the pregnancy to myself right now is hard enough!
 
The heartbeat is even later... around week 14 i think? (can't remember it) makes more sense really(not having early scans).... i mean it's nice to have an early scan but i can see why the nhs don't bother. unless you have a history of losses of course.
 
I'm the 15th of October GingerPanda :)

I have no idea if im finding out the sex. I did with DS but I like the idea of having a surprise this time round. My boyfriend found out with his DD but thinks he's too impatient to wait haha.
 
Where we live they won't attempt to listen to the heartbeat till 16 weeks. Not sure if it's different in different areas though. I'm in manchester.

We booked a private early scan this time after my lest pregnancy ending in mmc. I just feel like although a scan can't change the outcome I could have known last time a full month earlier. I'd rather just know at this point.
 
Pixie you're doing so much.. you must be tired.. I work fulltime and I am studying my ECDL advanced and taking exams.. that wears me out lol

I am having my early scan due to the 7 losses... I have only gone past 6 weeks with my 3 grown up kids.. so crossing my fingers..


I am feeling tired this evening... my boobs were not hurting this morning and I felt ok... but this evening the tiredness has swooped in bringing the painful hot boobs and nausea.. does it do that to any of you?

Welcome newbies!! :)
 
Mummystheword and Cariad, I've added you. Thanks for your patience! :D



We might share the news if it's a boy. If it's a girl, we'll definitely keep it quiet, because I just know my family will send me a bunch of frilly pink crap I'd never put on my kid. :haha:
 
Hi all, been reading but not posting much. This thread is huge already lol. Anyone's temperature going crazy, from hot and sweaty to cold and shivering? I'm not sure if it's the after effect of tonsillitis or baby.

I too have the no baby fear...I've done about 20 tests though so I'm as sure as I can be.
 
I go hot then cold.. finding it hard to regulate...

Im way too scared to take anymore tests.. I stopped at 15DPO im currently 32DPO
 
Oh wow, I thought the heartbeat was earlier! Do you hear the heartbeat on the first ultrasound or is it silent? I can't wait for mine! I swear, this week has gone so slowly!
 
I know you can see the heartbeat at 6 weeks plus... and some people use dopplers from 11 weeks.
 
You can see it, I didn't hear it but I would imagine they're able if you ask. This has been the longest week ever lol

My mw with X said they won't try sooner because if they can't find it/it takes a long time it causes a lot of distress. Makes sense I suppose.

Yea I'm pretty pooped! And my childminder just text, she's not working tomorrow. Shit shit shit. Luckily my sister said she'd have him. It's a lot for her on top of her own five though. And she's had to cancel a meeting at school.
 
Private scans i find always let you listen to them... Not so much with the nhs ones lol

At my twenty week one the woman didn't check for the sex and when i asked her she was a little annoyed because "she was done" then she made some half arsed attempt to look and couldn't find it... luckily i all ready knew. She didn't know that though! grumpy witch ahah
 
I can have a scan whenever I want I'm just trying not to until 8 weeks and that way I'll know if nothing is there its another loss. Both my losses were mmc and picked up on routine scans. That's what makes me so nervous if I had normal losses where I just bled it wouldn't be so bad I hate that my body holds onto them after they died.
