Thanks girlies.
Ive had a mixed week haha. Literally been nuts, was in work weds, all of a sudden about 2pm started having strong cramps, said to work i gotta go i dont feel well, managed to drive to the traffic lights about 200 yards away and suddenly threw up, the only thing i had in the car was an empty tea bag box, so just threw up in that in my lap whilst trying to drive! got home and had horrendous diarrhea. It scared me a little coz of the cramps, so rang the midwife number i was given and no-one ever got back to me (i just wanted reassurance really). Felt better thurs and fri, then friday night it all started again, from 1am to 4.30am, so i rang the nhs direct number and said the cramps were awful and frightening, the nurse said that as there was no blood, the cramps would be diarrhea related and this wouldnt harm the baby. they said theyd call back but didnt. the antenatal care for this has been shite! but i just thought they obv rnt worried so it must mean its ok.
I know the cramps werent vaginal, but they still scared me. the 20 week scan cant come soon enough.
Felt a little better saturday afternoon so went pram shopping woohooo, my nan was buying for me. Ended up getting a venicci. i love it!
So all in all a weird weekend!!

Oh how awful, I'm glad you're feeling better. Maybe you ate something bad?

Happy 18 weeks!
It seems the worry never ends, even after the baby is safely in your arms!

I don't think at this stage it's worth it honey. You'll have your 20 week scan soon enough, then you'll be feeling baby move regularly.
The further you get into pregnancy it's suggested not to use them if you have any concerns. Listening in to a heartbeat cannot tell you if baby is okay or not as its only a snippet.
I have one that I used early on. I haven't used it since the 20 week scan. Xx

I have read such mixed reviews. I know I am a worrier so maybe it would just stress me.
I haven't felt any movement yet and since my diarrhea cramps im just sooo anxious. I honestly think any longer than a month inbetween scans and im a nutcase

I had one, and in the early weeks (15-20w) I used it maybe once a week to settle my nerves. I haven't used it since my 20 week scan as now I feel him there's no need. You'll be feeling baby soon enough and hopefully that will give you some reassurance!!x

People get on my b**** nerves! In my head I am swearing profusely.
Why do people judge others when they have no clue what they have been through? It gets on my nerves.
The girls I work with all have babies, took one of them 2 months and took the other 4 months. And they look at me like im mental!
Every time I say im impatient for a scan, or im anxious, I get a little comment like 'omg what are you like....I've never known anyone like u...'
or when I book a 4d scan...'omg r u serious, why?'
and now today when I say ive bought a Doppler, I get a 'WHAT? omg why on earth'.
They say they know wot its like as they've have babies, im sorry you cannot compare ttc for 4 months and a perfect pregnancy to 2 n a half years of ttc, 1 miscarriage, sitting through an ivf workshop, 8 months on clomid, every test under the sun. Why don't people just keep their judgements to theirself. No-one knows what you've been through until they've been through it themselves!!!!!

Big 
I've found that people that havn't been through it just don't understand - they havn't been touched with the pain or the longing, or even half the anxiety that comes with pregnancy after loss or ltttc.
