SBCookie - beautiful scan photo!

Anyone else have to wait until 12 weeks? They don't do early scans here unless there's bleeding or some other problems, so I have to wait at least 6 weeks Baby keeps reminding me he/she is snuggling in nice and tight though, lots of nausea and a bit of cramping, thankfully no bleeding.

Yep, I will be waiting until at least 12 weeks too. They do have early scans here if you don't know your due date and need it as a dating scan, but I don't want that cos they tend to be internal and I'm not up for that!!! So I will just continue to be unsure on my dates and MIGHT relent and have a 12 week scan (though not convinced, and may wait until the 20 week one yet)


Nausea hit me this afternoon again too. Ugh, and yay, all at once! And I am burping a lot and feeling bloated. Oh what fun pregnancy is!

Oh good, I am not alone I am actually grateful for the nausea and other symptoms, just reminds me that things are happening

Wow, what a clear and beautiful scan pic, SBCookie - congrats! Not surprised you were both so emotional seeing the heartbeat


Happy 6 weeks to me and the other 6-week ladies today.

I got my 3+ on the Digi this morning and am so pleased. Done with testing now and can't wait for my scan next Saturday.

For those asking - in the UK if you conceived normally you'd get a scan at 12 weeks. But because I conceived with a fertility clinic and IVF they often scan you beforehand, which is the case for me. I think I'd have had to have paid for a private one though for the reassurance. 12 weeks is a long time to wait!

 

[ellitigg]

Denyse and flyingduster, I'm in the 12 week scan club too! It feels such a long time away but hopefully the Christmas bit in the middle will make it go faster

 

[KirinM]

I'm hopeful I'll get an earlier scan because of my previous history otherwise I'd be waiting 12 weeks too.

I had a really bad day yesterday. I was anxious all day and couldn't think positively at all. I'm aiming to concentrate on work. I'm now getting nausea pretty much all day although it goes from mild to bad on and off.

I'm starting to feel tired now. Fell asleep at 7ish for half an hour and was in bed at 9pm.

I'm another one that has to wait til 12 weeks for a scan. I am considering booking an earlier one at around ten weeks so that oh can be there as he will be working away when I have my 12 week one but I'm wondering does this mean it would have to be an internal scan or would they do one on my tummy by then? Lol.

Woke up this morning with awful cramps and had to run to the loo twice now, what's that all about??

I think they do internal scans until 8 or so weeks - I'm sure I've read it somewhere.

I don't know what the cramps are about but I can only guess it's the baby growing. If you think about the aches we get because the ovaries release an egg then it makes sense that your body is going to react to something growing inside it. (I think I've got to start being logical because constant worrying isn't helping)!

I had a scan at 6 weeks last time, because I'd been spotting in my fourth week. The doctor we saw was concerned I might have been having an ectopic pregnancy, but all was fine and the EPU attributed my spotting to implantation.

Then, when I was admitted to hospital with hyperemesis gravidarum, I was so sick that they gave me a scan at 9 weeks to check I wasn't carrying twins! So, we were spoilt last time!

This time, I've had the same spotting, but the doctor wasn't concerned so - if everything goes okay - we'll be waiting until 12 weeks.

That scan is beautiful.

I keep waking in the morning with tummy ache and kinda unsettled bowels (sorry TMI). I seem to be the opposite of everyone with constipation. Is it just me?

 

[LilyInk]

Not just you ellitigg. I amexactly the same. The mornings are the worse when I wake up I need to go to he toilet soon after and definitely no constipation yet.

Hello. I've been ttc #1 for 11 months and got a BFP on 2 Dec. I can't believe it.

I'm too cautious to update my status - terrified of losing it. I'm 5 weeks, 2 days.

Apart from some strong cramping all last week I have no other symptoms. Even the cramping stopped which worries me. I'm in uk so guessing I too will be waiting til week 12.

Does anyone else have virtually no symptoms?

 

[KirinM]

Still feeling achy today but trying to relax. Currently feeling like I've eaten a bar of soap. It started yesterday and it's such a grim taste. Food hides the taste for a bit but it is basically constant. Anyone else have this fun symptom?

 

[MummyJade]

SBCookie Beautiful scan, cant wait to see mine.. was it done via your tummy? The lady of phone told me mine would be but maybe internal would be offered if couldnt see much...

ellitigg i go between the two... dont remember this at all with my daughter...

We get 12 week and 20 week scans, although with my daughter they only did 20 week scans!

We have paid to have a private scan at 6 weeks 1 day or 6 weeks 4 days (depending dates) I think its 6 weeks 1 day as have a 31 day cycle... x

 

[28329]

We're planning private scans at 8, 16 and 24 weeks. We're prone to mc due to our ttc problems so need peace of mind.

ellitigg i go between the two... dont remember this at all with my daughter...

I don't remember it with my son either. I end up feeling yucky with tummy ache until after lunch and then the afternoon seems better. I have 4 more work days before Christmas so I'm hoping I can get through that and then relax for a couple of weeks...as much as you can relax with a 2 yr old!
