Ladies, I am back from my scan... The baby is measuring 10w5d (couple days ahead) and was moving a lot today.. The doctor was so nice today and zoomed all the views and showed me the head, nose, eyes, arms etc... It was the coolest thing ever!!
Oh, and he also said that the other sac is completely reabsorbed and there is no trace of it which is a good thing as I was worried if that would affect the other baby.. I have my OB appointment next week and NT scan on 24th Oct... After that OB will want to see me every 4 weeks... We have been spoilt with so many scans.. Waiting for 4 weeks is going to be interesting!
Hi all, I'm sure this is a silly question but after all I've gone through to make this work I don't want to do anything to hurt my chances now that they have done the transfer. Can I drink tea (decaf) while waiting until next week? I know caffeine is a no no but what about decaf? Thank you!!
Want - delighted everything was looking so good!!
Afm, all looking great also!!Just one baby in there... (dh was very relieved!
) All measuring as expected. The nurse said she could see the beginnings of the heartbeat flicker but we couldn't make it out. Back in 2 weeks for 8 week scan.

Nurse wasn't even slightly concerned about the spotting. She said as long as its not very prolonged or accompanied by a lot of pain then there's absolutely nothing to worry about![]()
Want and Broody: Glad to hear both your scans went well.
BOMO: Even pregnant you can drink some caffeine, 220 mg I think a day. I drank about 10 oz of coffee all through my TWW and early pregnancy. I was told to stay away from sweeteners and diet pop or drinks.
AFM: My scan went well both babies look great and were given low chances of any chromosomal abnormalities. My OB had said I would be getting scans every four weeks because of my age and twins but the doctor in the fetal assessment unit said she didn't see any need for increased scans until after 20 weeks.So it looks like I'm not seeing them again for 7 to 8 weeks.
Hopefully my OB will do one at my next appointment.
yay for great scans ladies!!
afm a very stressful day-my preschool found out we have strep and fifths disease going around so left work 2 hours early to get a strep test and a blood test....find out if I have strep by tomorrow morning and fiftyhs disease by thursday....FX no fifths as it can be spread to the fetus and cause miscairage![]()

lulu- congrats
bomo- i have had about 200mg of caffeine everyday since i cut back from about 1000 a day in november. i also drink diet soda.. while it is hard to have so little control over outcomes, stressing over stuff wont help either (not saying that is what you are doing,, just in general). a cup of tea, caffeine or no will not do anything either way. fingers crossed for you
afm- got my full amnio results today and all clear. yay
