Hugs Zowiey, she sounds like an absolute nightmare.

Can you ask to see another GP instead? As far as I'm aware, everyone is entitled to a 12 week scan, particularly if you want the nuchal test done as that has to be done between 11 and 12 weeks I believe. What a nasty woman. I swear some GP's have no compassion whatsoever.

Can you ring your surgery and ask for a midwife to call you back? I did that a couple of days ago and they were really lovely on the phone

:hugs:xx

Thanks, I was going to give it 1 1/2 weeks and if I hear nothing, then I'm going to see my usual GP. This Dr just did not want to listen to anything I said. And I'm having twins, I thought you were meant to get more monitoring with twins anyway- not having a scan until 20 weeks is just stupid!

oh I can't to read how it went and hopefully pictures too

Laraloo I am sssoooo happy for you. Hello Norman!!! You are a nice sized LO Youre mommy loves you so much. Us ladies in here know she does she can't wait to meet you either. Ok, go back to growing big and strong now...

Hope it ok I talked to norman? :blush:
 
Wow zowiey that sounds like a horrible experience :hugs:

If I were you I would be demanding the NT scan (if you want it), my doctor told me genetic abnormalities are slightly more common in twins, not sure if that applies to ivf twins though but mine didn't even give me an option!
 
Zowiey that is just awful! Surely you are entitled to your 12 week scan?! It sounds like she doesnt have a clue what she was talking about, im so sorry she has upset you. As for the folic acid, i cant speak for anyone else, i know- but my friend was prescribed 5mg folic acid- she has lupus though and her body keeps attacking the baby, so she keeps losing. So i dont think it would be 'harmful' but i would double check :hugs:

Peanut, you talk away to Normal :D thank you hun :flower:

Hope everyone else is ok? x
 
Random q- squirty cream- anyone know how long its ok for once 'opened'? It just says on tin to keep refridgerated and use before the date (which is May) xx
 
Iv no idea lora, does it say on the tin?

Hope your scan is going ok gemie, waiting for news

Midwife went well for me, I might be high risk because of my 3rd degree tear last time but I think the hospital decides.

Xx
 
No it doesnt say! Just says refridgerate and use by the date. It doesnt say 'use within XX days or weeks or anything' :wacko:

I really fancy some with ice-cream :dohh:

Does high risk mean you will be under consultant care lovehearts?

Looking forward to some pics when you get online Gem! :flower:
 
so, I just decided to play with me Doppler to see if babies wanted to be active earlier than 9 pm when we usually find them. And guess what? I have two little trains going in there :cloud9:. I know I have found the heartbeats before, but they have been slower than I have read they should be for the gestational age. They were both over 120. One was about 160 the other about 145. So excited I want to see them so bad now and see how much bigger they are. 6 days

Oh wow, thats fantastic! What doppler do you use? 6 days til next scan? Exciting :D xxx
 
I know I'm probably just being hyper sensitive, so I'm sorry for the moan! As long as she puts my referral in, I don't really care, although I'll remember her name, so I don't go to her again!!

Lora, I think it's ok, it's just the nozzle that can get a bit manky, I usually just rinse it under the hot tap, squirt a bit in the sink then squirt it in my mouth!! :haha:

Gemie, can't wait to see your piccie!!

Luna, we probably have more chance of problems as we had icsi, but I WILL get my scan, I'll beat down doors if I have to!! How are you doing? Do you feel like your carrying twins? I don't, but am finding I'm exhausted after 1pm, and also get out of breath really easily, but that's about it so far! xxx
 
Zowiet - sorry about your dr. I'd complain!
Peanut - that's lovely! Can't wait to hear my beans HB!
Lora - I do the same as zowiey
Xx
 
Wow peanut, how cool!

I don't think I'd trust myself with a doppler! I'd be on it everyday! And I'm far to paranoid a person for it ever to be a good thing for me!
 
I must admit squirting straight in to my mouth too :blush:

Great news on finding both heartbeats peanut :)

feeling pretty good. I'm super tired and have been the entire time, nauseous most of the time but nothing unbearable. Definitely don't feel like there's two in there ;)

It's more that we put 2 embryos back. If you just put 1 back, theres no higher risk than normal of twins. But ICSI has a higher chance of chromosomal issues, as hubby's sperm are a bit "spesh" so need help penetrating the egg, and so I suppose we're using sperm that naturally have reasons for not making bubbas, If that makes sense?!

On a different note, I am so glad I'm not the only one who squirts the cream in my mouth!!
 
whats the earliest u guys have found babies hb with a doppler? i have one but i thought i had to wait until 12wks to hear it, i would love to hear it earlier. x
