buddy wanted - ttc after ectopic surgery to remove a tube or more

[maybebayb]

So there is a wee baby in my uterus! Measuring 5+2 so bang on what I thought! No foetal pole yet like you sandy but there was a gest and yolk sac! My latest bloods were great too gone from 762 to 3021 in 72 hours

I'm going to go back at the end of next week for another scan and hopefully see the heartbeat.
I'm so relieved and amazed

 

[sandyhen85]

thats fantastic im so glad it all went well for you...now youve got another waiting game like me so you can see the heartbeat. did you get pictures?

 

[maybebayb]

Yup I've got a few pics with them pointing out the yolk sac etc, ill try upload later when I get to the computer
I'm not too worried about the heartbeat as I knew it would likely be too early for a foetal pole, I'm just going to trust that the heart will start beating this week sometime!

 

[sandyhen85]

yes for sure it will. so were 2days apart thats great my concern yesterday was when she measured me at 4w1d, but im pretty sure a yolk sac cant be seen that earky so her second measurement must be correct

 

[maybebayb]

The second one sounds bang on!
So weird, the fertility nurse called me today with official results from the hsg I had in july, my left tube was completely blocked in one section and partially blocked in the other two. This baby must have taken the long way round! So amazing

Can you not get a scan any earlier than 3 weeks away? I'm going to book mine for next Friday where I'll be close to 7 weeks.

 

[sandyhen85]

wow those results took ages to come through, you clearly have an extra special bean in there.

i might try go in earlier yes, going to see how I feel with the wait...i expect once youve had yours ill be super eager for mine from excitement

 

[maybebayb]

I kinda knew the results but not officially, I was supposed to have my fertility specialist appointment last week (and have a discussion about the results) but I rung and cancelled and asked if someone could call me back to talk about it.

Maybeb-that is awesome!!! Yayyyyy!!! So happy for you!!!

 

[sandyhen85]

Ahh maybe, they are great...can't wait to see the progress ones as well.

Am how are things with you, have you had another scan?

 

[Amcolecchi]

Sandy-Thanks for asking! I go tomorrow Super nervous still lol even though I saw the baby and heartbeat last time I get nervous every time I go haha..I think I will be nervous until the second trimester hahaa..how are you doing?

 

[sandyhen85]

I can understand exactly how you feel, at this stage we have no real idea of how they are doing, but once we get to the second trimester and feel movement I think we will relax somewhat.

I hope everything goes well tomorrow, drop us all an update afterwards

I'm doing well too thank you, scan was yesterday measured 5w3d and bean is in the right place, so I am really relieved...but have to wait 3 weeks for my next scan ahhhhh haha will try get in earlier than this if I can't handle the wait though, but going to try because then I will see more at that scan.

 

[Amcolecchi]

Sandy-Thank you! Yes I will for sure!! Man 3 weeks sounds so far from now haha maybe you can get in sooner!!

 

[maybebayb]

Can't wait to hear about you scan am!

Ugh I feel so sick this morning! I'm taking it as a good sign

How you ladies feeling? Hope you have a fab day x

 

[Amcolecchi]

Yayy so this morning was great!!! I got to see the baby and hear the heartbeat!! It was at 157!!! Such a great morning! I am 7w4d he wants me to come back in two weeks, not sure why since everything is ok but maybe since the ectopic he is going to follow me thru the entire 1st trimester! But in two weeks is our wedding anniversary so we are excited to get another ultrasound!

 

[maybebayb]

awesome AM, I am so pleased for you. Just take the other ultrasound hehe (well as long as it's free)
Can't wait to see the heartbeat of our little pea, this week is seriously dragging!
Getting more bloods today at the doctors request, she want's to check the hcg is doing what its should but after that I am going to go thru my midwife for everything, I am meeting her on the 12 sept so excited, she sounds so lovely and is super prompt at calling me back etc, so unlike a midwife to actually be available when you want to ask something!

 

[Amcolecchi]

Maybe-so I was thinking a midwife too but with my insurance how do I find out if they are covered or not? I am so unfamiliar with the whole process!

 

[c.m.c]

AM great news on your scan!! We've got little raspberries this week!!!!!!

 

[sandyhen85]

Am, so glad everything went well with the scan and I would certainly take the extra one just for the chance to see bean again

How did your bloods go maybe?

I told my boss today because things are getting very stressful and he's been shouting a lot to get things done, so I've been concerned about the stress levels because my doc told me to avoid all stress..He knows about my mc and ectopic and has always been very supportive and when I told him he was great and looked really chuffed for me...told me to leave early if I need to, make sure I take a break when I feel tired and any work that's stressing me too much then pass straight over to him...oh and he won't tell anyone feeling a lot better now. just one more day until the weekend yey!

 

[Amcolecchi]

cmc-yayyy for raspberries!!

Sandy-not sure they took my blood right when I got there but never called me to tell me results...oh well lol And that is awesome your boss let you go home early! I wish more bosses would understand how bad stress is! When is your next scan?

 

[maybebayb]

Maybe-so I was thinking a midwife too but with my insurance how do I find out if they are covered or not? I am so unfamiliar with the whole process!

I'm not really sure what system you have where you are (where are you anyway?)

here you just call a midwife and ask if they're available and bobs your uncle (they take about 5 woman a month) It's all free thank goodness. If for some reason you need to see a doctor its free as well if it's pregnancy related. I've been a bit naughty and double dipping into the system using both my midwife and doctor to get results, you're really only supposed to use one or the other
