I know it's really late, but I found some CB digis in my house today so HAD to do one. Got my 3+ which is exactly what it should say at nearly seven weeks lol... But I did get a bit freaked out when I did one at 5+3 and only got 1-2

Ah thanks Lynette. Your boys are gorgeous too! Been having a nosey. Lucas is 4 x

 

[kezz_howland]

EMYJC - your due date is same as mine and I am 13 dpo today

 

[bridgetboo62]

here are my ultrasound picks from today
based on LMP i was 7+5
midwife said looks about 6+5
but i have 30-31 day cycles and im almost 100% positive i ovulated on the 15th of may because that would have been cycle day 20 (giving me only a 11-12 day luteal phase) and may 15th is the only day we DTD that cycle
we did see the flicker of the heartbeat
they didnt use a doppler or anything but she said she would guess the heart rate to be 140-150 bpm
im going back for another ultrasound in about a week just to make sure baby is growing on time because im measuring a week behind based on LMP
but im not worried based on when i ovulated ect
this next ultrasound will be formal at radiology
i got blood drawn and everything too
i have my next appointment on thursday july 17th
and the next one after that on thursday august 14th

 

[bridgetboo62]

we found out that our hospital/insurance doesnt do the gender test through blood panorama test after 10 weeks so we will have to wait for that 18-20 week ultrasound

also i didnt like my midwife very much
she made me feel kind of uncomfortable
like she was judging us and just the way she talked and everything
i might switch

 

[crysshae]

That's great Bridget. Glad the scan went well and you get an extra scan too. Can't beat that!

 

[British Mummy]

Yay for healthy ultrasound Bridget! and great that you'll have another soon, yeah with all healthcare professionals you'll probably find there's some you hit it off with and others that you'll really dislike. As long as they listen to you, I think that's important x x,

 

[bridgetboo62]

yeah she did listen to me and is supportive of our plan for a natural low intervention birth

 

[luminescent]

bridget, congrats! looks great!
looks like we had appointments at the same time.. I went to a local private clinic to try to make an early scan appointment and they had an opening so I had a surprise scan today. just getting health insurance set up so I hope they take it haha.
we saw a little heart beating, it was 142 bpm I believe, and measured about 7 weeks but she said give or take a few days at this point, it was hard to get a clear picture, I think my bladder was too full as I'd had coffee beforehand.

 

[bridgetboo62]

im super excited for my scan in a week
i wonder if baby will look much different

 

[bridgetboo62]

wow congrats!
your scan looks so much different than mine!
your baby looks bigger haha

 

[EMYJC]

Congrats on the positive scans. Kez I am
Kind of guessing my due date. Thought I was about 7 weeks as LMP was 25th April. Scan confirmed no way near that though. Latest I could've ovulated would be CD33 (I am irregular) that makes me 23dpo. How many weeks could I be then? Worries me that only a sac was on my scan but my HCG has gone from 1761 to 6429 in 4 days. X

 

[luminescent]

haha she zoomed in quite a bit to take that and look at the HB. yours is more of the whole uterus so it's different perspectives

emyjc- that HCG is a good sign, it's quite a bit higher!

 

[kezz_howland]

Err, that'd make you 5 and a bit i think?!

 

[christina1612]

Bridget that's a good idea to keep track of your pregnancy! I am going to do the "one picture a week" thing for myself and maybe make a time lapse video of it.

Got my first appt for July 8 and that seems SO. FAR. AWAY.

She told me as long as I'm not spotting or cramping really bad, I should be okay. I just feel like I need someone to be reassuring me everything is fine the whole time. Anyone else feel this way? I just still can't believe I'm growing a baby in my belly that will come out in 8 months!! I'm in shock.

Megamegan just seen on your ticker that we have the same due date! my first apt is july 15th but it seems so long away! I'm worried too especially as ive not had the main symptom, ms, so I don't know if im just lucky or its not kicked in yet! I remember with my first that I was having nausea the day before af was due.

 

[ttc126]

Emy, try not to worry. I think your scan sounds right on for hcg levels. Between 1000-2000 they only expect to see a sac. When is your next u/s? I bet your spotting was implantation bleeding....

Yay due date buddies!! I am having an appt with the nurse on July 2 (just got it changed to 6 weeks date!) and then I will schedule an early ultrasound for the following week or so to hopefully see/hear heartbeat. Can't wait.

Only symptom I'm struggling with is really bad bloating. I'm so uncomfortable. My boobs hurt really bad in the morning too. I think it's more common for MS to kick in around 6 weeks. We'll see! Also I think a lack of symptoms isn't anything to worry about. I'm sure we'll feel like crap before we know it, lol!

Hi ladies!

I just found out I'm pregnant two days a go! Two positives FRER's and a digital this morning! This will be my first and I'm so excited! I'm guessing I'm due in February so I'd love to get chatting with everyone here! My husband's away with work and isn't home until Tuesday so I'm keeping quiet until then..I can't contain myself!!
