Anyone else expecting a November sparkler? *Updated with due dates!*

[Kdk24]

Lovely ladies... Just had my second "piece of mind" scan this morning. Uterus is measuring 8wks and baby is exactly half an inch. Heartbeat was 143!!
Yes they asked me to hold it for a full hour before the belly scan, one of the hardest things to do! She asked if I wanted to empty to get a trans scan but I hate those probes and I usually end up spotting heavily after so I passed. We get a disc of baby so I can upload them later!

Welcome 3boys!

Kdk- Awww, thats fab, cant wait to see pics later!

Hows everyone else today? Anyone got scans or appts coming up? x

 

[LadyE]

Hi ladies- hope there is room for one more Nov mommy!
Congrats to all the new pregnancies!

I got a positive preg test yesterday! My math says I'm almost 8 weeks, we have our first appt for confirmation on April 5th.

My son is 11 months today, we are still breastfeeding and I have only had 2 periods after giving birth so baby #2 needless to say was a total surprise! a total blessing, but def a surprise! I had a suspicion when I started feeling nauseous the past few days and then my hat started smelling funny- with my DS my sunglasses smelled and still today I can’t bring myself to put them on, guess there's goes that hat! haha. xoxo

Funny, because here, you have to have a full bladder for a tummy scan, but an internal scan you have to have an empty bladder Also here, at 7 weeks, they wouldnt do an internal scan, just a tummy one x

I probably worded it wrong, yes a full bladder for tummy scan then I was told to empty my bladder as much as possible to really push all the pee I could out for the vaginal scan. The closer they could get to baby the better. SO, sorry for the confusion. I was a little excited with all the other news I didn't say I had the chance to empty my bladder. But, when I did get to go pee in between that's when I saw the tummy picture with the two Gestational sacs and I asked the tech, "Which one is the baby?" she smiled and said we were going to do the vaginal to get a closer look. Then upon doing the vaginal scan she couldn't seem to get a better look at the other so we focused on the one

Whens your next scan? Cant wait to see if there are 2 babies! Was the other sac sort of above the other? Is that why they couldnt get a clear view? Or behind it? Not really sure how twins work

I will upload the other picture they gave me where they zoomed out some to show us the yolk sac the other one is just to the lower right where the brightness starts to fade, then you can see a small alomost round brighter spot the part around it , if you look close is almost a heart shape. everytime she would try to get closer things moved around and the one that we can see clearly would start jumping around. She said since its so early we will focus on the active one and the OB can do a deeper investigation in two weeks.

IDK you ladies look and tell me if you see what the tech saw I could see it going either way, which is okay, but I can kind of see the other one

 

[LoraLoo]

I can see where you mean! Hopefully you will find out more at your next scan ) xx

Oh no teacupp i don't want to hear this, I really hope it's all ok.

I'm leaving I'm about an hour for my first ob appointment and us- pray I see a little bean with a hb!

 

[Kdk24]

Keeping my fingers crossed Teacup... I've been spotting since my missed period! It's normal in some of us! Try and relax and hope for the best! I'll keep you in my thoughts!

 

[teacup22]

Thanks guys! I hope it's ok but in reality I know this makes it less likely to be ok!
Good luck at OB tower!

Yay KDK that's lovely news hon

Welcome 3boys and LadyE. Lovely to have so many ladies in the thread.

Teacup, sorry to hear your news hun....big hugs. Hopefully it's just normal spotting like KDK said. Sending lots of good luck vibes your way hunny.

Well AFM, I am officially 6 weeks tomorrow. By this time last time I was preg (ectopic), I was already bleeding loads and cramping, and my tube ruptured at 6+2, so feeling good about everything at the mo as everything seems normal. Also last time, it really hurt in the same tiny spot everytime I sneezed which I learned afterwards was where my tube was, and there is nothing when I sneeze now, so again, hoping it's a good sign.

These early days are such a worry for everyone aren't they. Roll on my 7 week scan

Edit:- Quick question.....with my ectopic they did emergency transvag scan due to severe pain and being quite early at 6+2. My early reassurance scan is booked for 7+4...will they likely do an abdominal scan at that stage? Also, the letter says to bring my blue maternity book and make sure i have booked in with the midwife before 13 weeks...do I need to do this for the early scan, or just for the one we have in may at 12 weeks? Thanks, sorry if this seems obvious.

Oh teacup, I do hope all is well at your scan tomorrow
