I'm on bedrest! You're probably going to get tired of all my posting now Did you get the early scan you wanted?
Obviously the BH and contractions have not gone, because that is why I'm on rest until next week but my UTI is gone! I thought maybe it was the UTI causing the BHs but nope! They were very frequent yesterday, even when I walked/bathed/laid. Everything caused them They're noticeably slower today though, so bedrest is exactly what she needed!
How is everything going?
Glad you're resting Brenn! You're so close to meeting Brady now! Have you got everything prepared? I'd love to see a pic of your nursery!
I wasn't allowed an early scan or blood tests. Doctors in the UK don't seem to give you special treatment unless you have had three miscarriages. I was super anxious last week worrying about miscarrying again but am just trying to think positively now. The doctor said that they tend to do scans from about 8 weeks now anyway (which I have never heard of, I have always been told 12 weeks). I have found a privately run clinic that can scan me early but it costs £95 plus we'd have to pay £20 for the train journey to get there. OH and I are off to Paris on the 20th March for 5 days, and I wanted to maybe get a scan the day before we go when I'll be at 7 weeks. But OH has said that there isn't much point if the doctor said I may be able to get a scan for free from around 8 weeks (I still don't believe my doctor on that one!).
So I don't know what to do! I just don't want to be worrying when we're on our holiday, but then if I had a scan before I went then if it's bad news I would be worrying anyway! Although knowing bad news before we left would probably be better than randomly bleeding.
Any advice? What would you do? x
