Im in Sussex but going to Tunbridge Wells, it was 49 pounds I think... the ones in Brighton were 90-100 pounds, and they do them from 7 weeks xx

Are you using epau.co.uk?

Yes I believe that's what they are called

I couldn't find reviews, have you heard anything about them?? xx

 

[Dazed125]

I haven't but also intend to use them for an early sexing scan so would be interested to lnow how ypu get on. They are seperate from the hospital but Beneden is very good and I can't imagine the hospital would associate with them if they weren't good also

I had a miscarriage a year ago. I Am currently 6 weeks 5 days pregnant. I have had a lot of bleeding and cramping but every ultrasound still shows a baby. I had an ultrasound at 5 weeks 5 days and everything measured perfect. Then one at 6 weeks 5 days and they baby only measures 6 weeks 0 days (4mm) they said it barely grew and had no heartbeat and should be bigger than it is. Am I going to miscarry? Has anyone had a similar situation with not much growth since first ultrasound. Also the ultrasounds were at two different offices. We definitely saw a baby this time! But no heartbeat and not much growth. I'm expecting the worst but is there still hope?

hope it's a good outcome for you. When do you go back?

 

[DrGomps]

I had a private gender Scan and a 3D scan later. It was around $65 each. I don't think I would go for an early one since my dr does one and I prefer to have a medical clinician do the transvaginal.

Afm. I am sick again. Got DD's cold. Wish I could take something besides Tylenol. Also, I threw a party for DH, which probably has lead to all the fatigue/exhaustion.

 

[MrsP81]

I hope you feel better soon!!!

I will let you know how I get on... Im hoping as I will be 9 weeks they will be able to do a normal scan and there's no need to do an internal one x

Yeah, I'm prone to spots but have been using a topical solution that has fought off any breakouts for 3 months, until finding out I was pregnant had a bit of a mini breakout hoping it'll stabilise soon, my skin was fine last time.

 

[GI_Jane]

At what point should you start using stretch mark cream and can anyone recommend a good one?

 

[Kandidancer]

I felt sick from 5 w to 5 w 3 days now nothing. Hopefully Won't feel ill much anymore. I'm using cocoa butter all over as my best friend used this and hasn't got any stretch marks from both pregnancies. Fingers xed it'll work for me, if not I'll use Bio oil xx

 

[Pearls18]

I used bio oil last time, have cocoa butter this time. Sooner the better, doesn't need to be an expensive cream, it is just to try and keep your skin moisturised so it's more supple, it can't guarantee any thing. I used it religiously last time and I have some silver lines 3 years on.

 

[Dazed125]

Bio oil is very good, I already have some stretch marks from weight gain/loss and this has helped them fade a lot, it also doesn't have a strong smell - cocoa butter makes my nausea worse x

Glad I'm not the only one! Had more spots in last 2 weeks than I did in my whole teenage years lol!!!!

 

[mouse_chicky]

Mummytastic, I've definitely breaking out like crazy. Bleh. Can't wait for the pregnancy glow to kick in.

I've never used bio oil, but I've heard that it's good. My last pregnancy I used Palmer's stretch mark lotion which worked pretty well, although I should have put it on my inner thighs. I never knew I had any marks there until after the pregnancy.

I hope everyone's doing well. Bnb is actually letting me read all the pages today. Lately it's been a pain; not sure if it's the website or my computer.

I've developed an aversion to anything mint, but lately I haven't been able to get enough meatballs. No ms yet, so I'm eating a lot now just in case I can't in a couple of weeks.

 

[Kaiecee]

I heard bio oil is good for spots I bought it but I don't ever use it

 

[ipfee812]

Spotty here too! Yuk! Early scan on thursday !! My doctor said sweet almond oil miked in a bit of warm water for stretch marks and whatever you do dont itch bbs or belly as that makes stretch marks worse! Back at work today still have 24/7 MS so this is going to be so fun! Lol
Have a good day everyone x
