February Valentines 2012 - We have our first Valentines!

[TeQuiero]

Is it common for people to get early scans? I was told I would be booked for a scan anywheres from 18-20 weeks.

I know that most DRs here do the first scan between 8 and 12 weeks. They want to make sure that the sac is there and to tell how many babies there are, so on and so forth. I normally have 3-4 scans during my pregnancies, one at 8 weeks, one at 18-20 weeks, and one at about 32 weeks.
I am getting so impatient for my first appointment.... I think that this wait is worse than the 2ww!!

My dr does one everytime I go to his office. I've had 2 and I'm not 6 weeks yet. Love scans!!!

Maybe ask at your first mw appointment and see if you can have an earlier scan

Not in Canada. I have seen alot of woman in Canada get scans later. I don't have mine booked until the end of August. (Around 16 weeks). I just happen to get one at about 6 weeks because i went to the hospital.

i am so nervous :/ i have a scan later on today. i HATE scans i am that nervous i woke at 3am and cant get back to sleep boo lol

Don't be nervious!!! I am sure everything will be fine

I am in the US, and I got my first scan today (6+2), and I saw and heard the HB . I have another one in 2 weeks, and then the first trimester screen in early August. The only reason I have one in two weeks is because I miscarried in Feb, and my Dr. doesn't want me to have to wait 6 weeks to see the baby again .

EDD until this affternoon (1st appt) is 2/12/2012!!!

This would be 6 days after our Anny!!! WOW!

However, as any of you that recognize me from other threads know, I have an irregularly regular cycle (every other month) so the doc has us coming in today to see if it is 2/12/12 or 1/24/12.... Either date would be fine with us!

I thought my MS was passing as I felt pretty good for most of the day yesterday. Well today it is back worse than ever! I threw up for the first time ever today ( I acutally couldn't stop...tmi- sorry) and now I am running late for work. I don't know if I should eat something so I have something in my stomach as I'm a bit shaky or if I should skip food so I don't get sick again, since I will be at work. This sucks. I'm pretty sure my prenatal came up as well as my breakfast. Should I try taking another prenatal later today to make sure my system gets the vits? Any help or suggestions would be awesome! I do take B6, and it doesn't seem to be helping although I will keep taking it!

definetely eat something 5-10 minutes after puking. Don't eat straight after, but if you leave it too long you'll build up stomach acid and puke again.

As for the vits, it depends whats in them. Folic acid and b6 I'm 100% sure your can't overdose on because they are water soluble not fat soluble, so it depends what else is in them wether you should take another or not.

How much B6 are you taking?
