Omi; great news on the HB super fast!! Dont be sad that you cant have a homie, youjust have to think you really will be in the best place (although we all hate hospitals)

Schmoo; congrats, Weds had come and gone!!!!! wont be long til the early scan!

Poshie; got my MW appt through today. Its 15th Dec....day after my scan. OH is so hope I get to have a proper appt this time!!!!Hpefully next week is my lucky week.

I threw up seconds after my breaky this morning then proceded to spend the rest of the day dry heaving every half hour. I now have those nappy bags (normally used for dog poo) in my car just in case ;-). pokes and prods have gone a bit today, lots of trapped wind which is lovely!!

Hope you guys are all well....so far so good guys xxxx

Hello ladies

BL - for mw appointment - it will be some week for you next week eh

Nicky - best of luck for today's scan, let's hope we find out what team this time!

 

[beachlover1]

schmoo & Nicky...let us know how you go today!! thinking of you both x

 

[Poshie]

I'm wondering how Schmoo is getting on........don't know what time her appt was today....thinking of you hun

 

[shmoo75]

Well, the scan went well I can report it was at 9:20am! We were very early so had a drink and sandwich in the canteen before going to the scan department. All they could see was a sac in the right place measuring 5wks+1day. I have another scan booked for Wed 30/12 @11:45am where I will be at least(hopefully)8wks and, they will be able to tell me that yes this is a viable pregnancy. Me and OH are happy that there is a sac there and its in the right place also, they said my ovaries were normal which, is also good news. So, another 3 long wks to wait for my next scan where, I will hopefully see a HB. I wonder how Nicky's getting on today? I will pop by her journal.

 

[MissyMojo]

yay shmoo fingers crossed the next few weeks fly by for you xxx

 

[Poshie]

So Schmoo, did you think you were 5W 1D or is that different to what you thought? I can't remember your dates. I thought the scan was very early so you wouldn't expect to see much but the sack at that stage I guess. Good news all is looking normal so far though eh

 

[shmoo75]

I thought I was 6wks+1day today(going by my LMP I should be 8wks+1day!) This might be a stupid question but, am I classed as being 5wks+1day pregnant? Does this include the 2wks prior to ovulation?

 

[Poshie]

Sorry, I'm confused! When was your LMP hun? Did they give you an edd? If so, what method did they use to work it out? You ovulated much later didn't you, so it shouldn't be based on a 28 day cycle. Give me your stats!

 

[beachlover1]

Glad everything is in the right place schmoo!! hopefullly things will have progressed more when you next go back! Im guessing you ovulated late if you are behind with your dates. I think they normall quote from LMP and include 2 weeks prior to ovulation but im not too sure .....the others might know!!!! Anyone?

Alll this dating lark is sooooo confusing! thats the problem with these early scans, they are sometimes more trouble than they are worth...but we still have them!! ;-)

Me today, I feel Sick, sick, sick, sick!!! I have had to rush out of operating theatre about 5 times today to heave. Not sick though, just feel it. home now and starting to get hungry.....so we shall see. I kind of like feeling sick in weird way! I NEVER felt sick this point with my previous pregs. My last one i only made 5 weeks, so i have busted that! the first one i am about level as to when i had my scan.....felt normal that time, no tired, no sick...maybe its a good sign. Monday will tell!!!!

Hows everyone else? any more scan results???? xxx

Thought I would incude everything that I could hun.

 

[Poshie]

I'm pretty sure the date they give you does include the 2 weeks prior to OV, so it's from your LMP. I know Schmoos cycles are on the long side and ov comes late for her. Hopefully she can clarify her dates and we can work it out.

This sick feeling is new to me too actually...never had this before. My boobs haven't hurt so much since the sickness started actually. Not feeling as bad as I did yesterday, but still not great. I have eaten a good lunch today too, whereas yesterday I couldn't. It's the thought of food that is worse than the actual eating today!

 

[Poshie]

We must have posted at the same time Schmoo! I am now going away armed with these dates to do some investigation......I'll get back to you asap! If anyone else would like to lend a hand with this, that would be most welcome

 

[beachlover1]

To me it looks like the scan was ok, if you ASSUME a 14 day luteal phase you were tracking for a 44 day cycle!! adjusting your cycle length puts you at 5 weeks pregnant coz you didnt ov til day 30!!!!!!.

Is that right Poshie?? x

 

[NickyT75]

Shmoo the 5wks starts from 2wks prior to Ov coz they just assume everyone has a 28 day cycle but you have to remember that the egg can take a while to implant which can throw the dates out a bit too... you seem to be within the normal dates so Im sure everything is just perfect & you'll get to see a lovely strong heartbeat next time you go

Oh and guess what?? Im on team xx

 

[OmiOmen]

I am glad to hear the scan went well shmoo. They normally add the 2 weeks on the what the growth at the scan suggests I think (but don't quote me on that). They normally go based on the average rather than when your LMP actually was. If mine was based on my LMP I would be 1-2 months farther along because I am so irregular so they just added 2 weeks on to my stage at the first scan. It was a bit annoying when I went to my first midwife appointment and she asked when my last period was and I all I could say was months ago but I know I conceived early to mid August!

 

[OmiOmen]

NickyT75: I am glad your LO co-operated and let you find out the sex!

 

[Poshie]

Right bear with me...

I have had to work this out in such a way that it becomes based on a 28 day cycle, but still taking into account the day Schmoo actually O'd (ie. much later)...

Let's say Schmoo ovulated the day after her Peak on the CBFM...........that would make OV day 12 November. So for arguments sake, this would work out an LMP of 29 October (based on a 28 day average cycle), thus making her 6 weeks today?

 

[MissyMojo]

yay for team pink nicky

with wonky cycles scans are dodgy to place, but if u go bk 2 weeks from ov and date from there?
