I had my 6 week scan today. I saw the heartbeat and all looked fine although it's only measuring at 3mm so she said I was a bit behind 6 weeks. She didn't seem worried but of course now i can't stop thinking about that! Glad I saw the heartbeat though and she said it was a viable pregnancy. Fingers crossed!

I'm sure everything is fine. It's so wonderful to see that little heartbeat!

Afm, 10 weeks today and going to have blood work done to check for abnormalities as well as the gender. I'm hoping we'll get the results back in a week.

I hope it all goes well! That is very exciting you might know the gender soon!

Jellybe so sorry hun. Good luck in the future. :hugs:

AFM ...had my dating scan today. Baby measuring right on track at 8W3D (2.08cm) and a heartbeat of 167. :cloud9: Due date remains the same.

Here's our little bean.

My Hayfever is pretty bad at the moment. I can't remember from last time if there are any medications I can take? I really don't know how I'm going to make it through the summer! I'm trying natural nasal sprays but they're just not working.
 
Congratulations iris :)

I have been suffering a bit too Laura. Strangely in my last pregnancy I didn't suffer at all, nor while breastfeeding. Will be interesting to see this time whether pregnancy helps to relieve my hay fever.

I am so exhausted today. Having an early night!

Looplaura - at my 6 week scan I was a couple of days behind where I thought I should be too. a scan a couple of weeks later bubs measured on track. At this stage they're so small that half a mm makes such a difference so if they're not perfectly straight it can appear that they're a bit behind. Also remember that even if you know when you ovulated, fertilisation can take a day or two!
If you saw a heartbeat and the sonographer didn't seem concerned then I'm sure bubs is hunky dory.

I know it's easier said than done but please don't worry! 😊
 
Babyforiris - fab scan photo!!!

MrsRose - what type of blood work are you getting done to determine if there are any abnormalities? I'm such a worrier that if it's non-invasive I'd be interested in getting them done too!

A friend has recently discovered at their 20 week scan that their baby's brain hadn't developed properly and so wouldn't survive. I'm absolutely devastated for them and now completely paranoid! I know such instances are thankfully very rare but it still terrifies me! I'm half dreading my 12 week scan as I've still got spotting (over 2 weeks now!) spa bit paranoid about another mmc.

I hate 1st trimester - it goes so slowly and has me terrified of something going wrong everyday! Roll on 2nd tri!!!

I'm doing the Panorama test. It doesn't test for everything...I'm sure if you google you can see what all is tested. I'm so sorry to hear about your friend's baby--I just can't even imagine.
 
I'm still spotting and very paranoid about my little bub, even though I've seen a great heartbeat and a perfect little baby 8 days ago. It's hard not to worry. I'm hoping I'm going to get a date for my 12w scan soon. It's a high risk/specialist scan, and I'll be able to purchase pictures :) where I live you don't get pictures unless you are high risk (because you get an ultrasound in a different place than you would otherwise) and pay for them. I'm just hoping I see a healthy baby and everything is OK. This baby couldn't be more wanted and loved.
 
So I think we are announcing tomorrow. I'm scared but excited. I'll be 9.5 weeks.
 
Hilslo & counting - I'm with ya on the spotting. Had it for 2.5 weeks now, though mostly only brown with bit of pink once or twice. Hope it's starting to go away now. Am petrified of 12-week scan in roughly two weeks, even if 8-week scan was fine. FX for all of us.

BabyForIris - lovely scan!
 
That's exciting Counting! I am so excited to be able to announce. Especially as I'm feeling so crappy at the moment it will be good to be able to explain.

First scan in 2 days!! Excited and nervous. Hoping it all goes well
 
Yes- good to announce I think. I'm so attached to this baby, and they are so wanted. If at this point something went wrong, I couldn't just pretend to the world that they never happened. I want to share the joy and excitement, even if I am scared.

Also don't judge me guys! I got a call that I'm scheduled for an ultrasound on may 20th. I'm pretty sure that was accidental, and a result of two different doctors booking me for dating scans.... That being said... Myself and dh are going to go anyway instead of cancelling. Because it'll be nice to see our baby again, even if we should be having a high risk scan 1-2 weeks later. Wwyd?
