Will the results defiantly be in on Monday Tower? I hope it comes round quick. I can understand the not wanting to know but like you say, you just need to be sure whats going on.

I have my 20 week scan on the 24th June, but i have a gender scan on the 25th May. Its mainly to check the bleed i had, Im so scared it spread/just sitting there, basically just not going. I have had loads of pinching/stretching pain the last few days, are they just normal pregnancy stuff or is it related to the SCH. sorry for rambling.

Glad to hear all was well at your scan Manda. Cute pic - i say girl

xx
 
Im debating getting a private scan, not just to check the gender but because I dont have my scan til 19th June and I found out our last baby had died at 18 weeks so I feel like i need the reassurance. Finding out the babys sex would be a bonus! DH isnt keen on the idea, he just doesnt seem to understand why i want to :dohh: We had a 4D scan with Amy and he said he never really got anything from it :wacko: I keep telling him that this isnt a 4D scan and its not all about him!
 
My OH was like that when I wanted an early private scan Lora, I was upset he didn't see the point but when I explained it was for me and my reassurance he apologised and I got the scan :-) he loved it too, the sonographer spent ages with us explaining everything and getting lots of pics, well worth it in imo, we will be getting a private gender scan and possibly a 3d/4d one later on x
 
Mine is more for the reassurance Lora. If you want it then go for it. My hubby said no the other week when i asked but then after the bleed he came around. I think he knows how stressed out i am about it all. Hopefully you will be able to convince him in time! xx
 
Hope you get your private scan Lora!
I can't have a gender scan as we just don't have the money and its a long travel including a ferry to get to one!
I'm desperate to know the sex and see baby again!
Must be worse for you ladies who've had bleeding :hugs:
 
Just popping in quickly on my lunch break. Hope everyone is well?

Can't believe we are starting to talk about gender scans already. It doesn't seem that long ago that we were all stressing over waiting for the dating scans! Time seems to be going really quickly for me at the mo. I can't remember the date of my 20 week scan but think it is 26th or 28th June. They were kind enough to make it for 8:30am as I hate the afternoon appointments.

Someone has just put their scan pic up following a bleed and I have already forgotton who it was! Just to say though that is was a fab scan and so glad the bleed turned out to be nothing xx
 
good morning ladies- I am jealous you all have dates for the 20 weeks scan. I am going to beg them next Tuesday to let me come in before we leave to go to St. Louis, MO (It's where I am from and unfortunately we have a meeting there on June 11th that I can't miss. It is not a vacation by any means) If I can get in just before we leaver I will be 18 weeks along. I am praying I can get the scan then. Or at least the Fetal Cardiography scan. then the 20 week and gender the week after we return I will be 20 weeks then.
Is it bad of me to hope that my belly really pops before we go to ST. Louis? I want everyone we know to see I am pretty and pregnant. Not just lumpy and bloated looking LOL. At least when we go, we will be making a detour to my sister's house and she is giving us a 4-in-1 crib, mattress, lots of crib sheets and anything else she or her friends can come up with. So, that will help loads. I would absolutely love to have more scan pictures and a gender to share with her. She swears I am having a boy :)

Okay, sorry for rambling on and on about the same subject!! I am freezing this morning. See DH and I played outside in the yard all afternoon yesterday. And well, I got a little burnt on my shoulders. DH burnt his entire back as he was shirtless. We planted our garden, trimmed some of the rose bushes, had a small fire to burn some of the yard waste. I tried to trim some of the raspberries we have back and the thorns got me. OUCH!!! I have become very accident prone now that I am pregnant and every single little scrape or cut bleeds like I am a stuck pig!! I suppose it is the extra blood.

Oh, I had a very "Different" type feeling yesterday, after we showered we were laying in bed and I had this random little feeling about 2 inches below my belly button. It was like a little like poke followed by two quick ones. Then, nothing. I am wondering if it may possibly be, and I hope so, the very very first of baby peanut swooshing by inside?
I could have just had a weird muscle move too, but I have never ever felt this. Yeah, the best way I could describe it was like a little kid lightly poking you, or when a kitty cat will lightly paw at you.

Okay, I am off of my little soap box I hope everyone is doing well today. I am debating if I want to go out into the yard again and find something to do Hmmm...
 
Love hearts, sickness is a lot better now thanks. Still getting the odd bout but much much better than it was :)
Peanut - sounds like bub to me. I get little light taps!
:happydance:
 
Peanut, it does sound like baby movement!

I'm still very lightly bleeding, so I think I'll stay home tomorrow, too. Not so worried now after yesterday's scan, just want it to stop.
 
Glad its eased up teacup and you can enjoy second tri.

Sounds like movement peanut - exciting!

xx
 
manda- hope the bleeding stops real soon. I know easier said than done, but try to relax and put your feet up
 
Manda - I feel for you. I bled 3 weeks with my son, well a big bleed than nasty brown discharge for 3 weeks. It was so disheartening because for the first half of second tri i was worried about spotting. And here i am again, this pregnancy, waiting for my bleed to come back! I had the gush last week but i know there is more to come as it was seen on my scan. :hugs: xxxx
 
What's bothering me today is that instead of brown and then the brown with black flecks it became, it's pinky brown. So, I worry it's working its way up to red. But there's not more than yesterday. And the cramps and Braxton Hicks are less. I'm trying to reassure myself with the lovely baby pic and that no problem could be seen, trying not to think maybe it's because whatever is causing the bleed isn't big enough yet to see. *sigh* But I still feel positive about the pregnancy.
 
Peanut - Deffo sounds like little bub making his or her presence known!

Lora - I would want the scan too. I think you should get one. It's for your peace of mind, which is very important seeing as everything you have been through.
 
manda, sorry to hear you are still bleeding, hope it eases up soon :hugs:

Ladies, Im SO frustrated, i hate talking about my losses on here cos i dont like to add any more worry to you guys at whats already a stressful/anxious time for most of us, but I dont know where else to turn.

The results from Alfies placenta STILL arent back. My GP phoned me this afternoon and basically we both feel like we are banging our heads against a brick wall- 5 times the results have been chased up now, once in writing- he wrote on March 8th and didnt even get a response! We are both starting to think they never actually tested it or have lost the results. I felt like crying when i got off the phone. He is having a word with my midwife today and when i see her next week will see if there is any news, if not, its back to my GP to pester him again. This has been going on too long and the closer i get to the gestation I lost Alfie the more anxious I am becoming :nope:

That is horrible!!! What kind of system do they have that the results aren't back yet? Well take a deep breath and relax. (easier said than done) maybe you can contact lab directly (if you aren't already doing so) Demand to speak to a manager or supervisor and let them have it!!!
 
Lora - We are here to support you. Don't ever feel bad talking about your little ones.

I feel so bad for you. I feel like over and over again they have been insensitive to your situation... I know there is not much that can be done, but you deserve MUCH better treatment than that. You have a unique situation that most people can't even imagine going through. They don't seem to understand this...
