MW - i would phone your doctor to query the letter, it maybe that your getting both? In the UK we get our dating scan around 13 weeks even if we get early scans. Hopeyou get it sorted out soon.

Butterfly - wow 18 years old thats super old for a dog huh, hope ours last as long i've come across a few people with Bichon's and heard fab things about them. Only 5 sleeps to go, we're getting so excited.

My tummy is getting a bit sour, wonder if MS is on its way?

Ladies, I think I may be having to leave you. Started to get pink spotting after a bowel movement yesterday and it hasn't stopped. Got a streak of dark red blood yesterday afternoon after wiping and went to the hospital. Had bloods taken but still waiting for the results. The urine test came back positive so that's a plus, I guess. Waiting for the hospital to call as I'm having an ultrasound as some point this morning.

I can't believe this is happening again. I want to hope but I don't want to be naive either.

My spotting stopped at the hospital last night so I thought that was it but started as soon as I got home. It will slow to only showing when I "dab" at my vagina with toilet paper and be clear with regular wiping but then picks up if I'm on my feet for even a few minutes or have another bowel movement. Nothing is showing up on the pads and I don't have any cramps but it's so early that I can't imagine the bleeding being from something else.

I feel so devastated.

I am going thru the exact same thing right now. Went yesterday after some spotting and she said she saw a little blood on the cervix. Got my bloods done and waiting for results. After exam yesterday when I got home started bleeding moe and a couple of clots. Went back this morning and they said have to wait for the blood results, get bloods done again on THurs morning and once/if my blood get to 7000 miu of hgc then they will do an ultrasound. This is so scary and the waiting is killing me! WIll say a prayer for you hunni! I will pray that both of us get to keep our little beans!

Hi all. Boy is it hard tyring to keep up in here, the posts are doubling so quickly. It was only one day since I checked and feels like twenty pages...anyways I feel like i'm the only one not feeling sick, anyone feeling fine? The only real symptom I have is that i am soooo tired all day. yawning nonstop and falling asleep if I even attempt to sit down and relax.
I have 1 week and two days until I get my scan. I hope this week flys so the next comes sooner.

Sophie, can't wait to see your pic. I hope they give you one! it's so excitting to see the little bean the first time.

Hi dano how are you?

Thought I would ask how your feeling sickness wise thought we could compare symptoms ? As your due the day before me! Am worried I don't feel that sick slightly, Which worries me. I so sick with my daughter. maybe it a boy? or maybe early days yet? xx

Any1 start feeling sick in there 6th 7th week?

Hiya hun. It's been on and off actually, I felt a bit sickly right at the start, but it then went away for a while. Now the nausea is back, worst day so far was today! I was so close to barfing, but kept it in!

I think it's more common to get it when the hormones really start to peak tho, so don't worry. I think it's different from pregnancy to pregnancy too!

You might be lucky & escape it completely!

Rant alert!
I was supposed to have an early scan today, well after sitting with a full bladder for two hours I have been fobbed off and been told they're going to do nothing for me until 6 weeks. Totally against what was advised by recurrent miscarriage clinic. Add to this the stupid bloody appointment they have made for me isn't 6 wks, she said it was 6wk1d well clearly she can't count it's for the 23rd which by my counting from 8th October is 6w4d. Fuming. And of course I can't get in touch with them as they are now closed. I am soooooo angry. Some idiot sent my referral to someone on study leave. ARGH! I keep telling them I never make it to 6wks. Sorry, now I am going away to cry.

Oh my, that's not good. Can you get the RMC place to get in touch with EPU somehow? Or maybe a private scan somewhere? xx

Oh i am so sorry you had to go through all this, big big hugs. Can you not call your Consultant?? I've found that badgering him has helped me in the past. Dont take what they say at face value, something i have learnt is that someone will evenutally listen. Phone every contact you have tomorrow, midwife, GP, consultant & EPU. Try and rest tonight, easier said than done but do something you enjoy to distract yourself and lets us know how you get on xxxx

Snap, I felt sick at the start, Now sickness on/off slightly. Sore bbobs and very tired tho! I got my hgc done on Friday 2000 Sunday 5000. So everything seems OK?!? I know is completely different for every woman! Bloody worried sick. ROLL ON SCAN X

 

[sparky32]

Or like Dan-o said, a private scan? Although i do know the one local to me wont do them before 5 weeks but seeing as your nearly there it maybe worth ringing. Oh i do hope you get some reassurance from someone and we're all here for you too xc

 

[Razcox]

fifi-folle - Agree with the other ladies nag the hell out of them until someone listens! So sorry they have made you have such a stressful day though. I really hate the early pregnacy care in this country!!!

butterfly25 - I know what you mean there is rather a lot of us on here now and it does get hard to keep up. I havent been feeling sick as such just a little queasy when i first wake and sometimes after my dinner.

 

[fifi-folle]

I just want to be taken seriously. I will be phoning the EPU first thing in the morning to get my appointment changed. The problem is we've moved house since I saw RMC, it was in Edinburgh and we're now in Fife. I have spoken to the EPU in Edinburgh and they will see me at 5 wks (Friday). I might phone them and explain that Fife are rubbish. I know it seems silly but after 4 early losses I want to see the bean so I can believe it's real iykwim.

Its not silly and dont beat yourself up about it. You have every right to be taken seriously and maybe by calling Edinburgh they will be able to help. No one quite understands the thoughts and frustration we feel unless they too have felt it and sometimes "professionals" are the worst. All we seek is a little reassurance and support. I do hope someone listens to you tomorrow xx

 

[MrsWez]

Jojo and starry night- I hope everything is fine

Sparky- Super cute pup.

fifi-folle-I would call them and rant a bit.

DragonMummy- you are right! We have a lot of LTTC and rainbow babies in this tread (myself being both) so I think the POAS addiction is justified!

Whew! Sorry if I missed anyone, Welcome and congrats to the newbies. I am getting my first little waves of nausea. Nothing too bad. I am having a lot of trouble falling asleep at night and I am sneezing like mad. I am also having loads of discharge. And I'M 5 WEEKS!

Definitely calling them - from what I heard from women in my area is that the second trimester ultrasound is much later than at 13 weeks (If at all) , which is why I'm confused. The ultrasounds will only be four weeks apart - seems a little soon. I'm hoping he didn't cancel my early appointment - I'll be really upset! I never had an appointment scheduled for me without my knowledge and not being asked/told that it was going to happen, so it's a bit odd.

quick update:

ultrasound inconclusive as way too soon to see anything. gestational sac measuring 5+0 but no fetal pole. HCG is in the mid 7000s so that's right where it should be. The spotting is on and off and the ER doc said as long as it's only when I wipe it's still in the normal range.

So seeing my doctor on Thursday to schedule follow up blood work and ultrasound. Hopefully this comes together quickly. Not sure if I should go to work the rest of the week as moving around brings back the spotting...

So not "good" news per se but it's not bad either. It's limbo land stuff. lol But I'm still in the game!

Glad it wasn't bad news. Limbo land stinks but it's better than bad news!

Sounds very promising, i didn't get to see the fetal pole with Grace till i was over 6 weeks so don't worry too much about that. As long as you HCG levels are good then thats gotta be a good thing. Big
