Sooooo - relieved!

After blighted ovum at 12 weeks last year an early scan was positive!! PHEW!!!

Saw heartbeat (cute little flicker). She said measurements say I am 5+6 even though my dates say 6+4 so not sure about that. Will wait and see at the next scan in 6 weeks or so I guess. Feel much happier though!!

hows everyone doing today??

im feeling really down and depressed.
i feel terrible saying this (i know so many people would love to be where i am) but im hating being pregnant this time around. i hate feeling sick i hate the constant worrying i hate the feeling my little girl is missing out on doing fun things with mummy coz ive been selfish enough to get pregnant again and i feel so ill constantly at the moment. i dont feel at all attached to my little bean thats growing. with my daughter i had already bout her her 1st little outfit and things by now but i have no interest at the moment. i know this will probably all change soon but just needed to get it off my chest.

Don't feel bad - anyone hates feeling ill, under the weather and like they are missing out on stuff. I have been feeling sorry for myself this week too.

BUT - it is only for a while and you never want to NOT be pregnant - you just want to feel well and enjoy it - very different things.

Just think - This time next year your daughter will be doting in her new sibling excited to be a big sister. In a few years time they will be out in the garden playing together and you will have a massive smile on your face!!

We just have to get through a few months - tomorrow is another day

Anna- I know exactly how your feeling.. I just want to feel better. I dread getting out of bed in the morning and I don't want to do anything. With all of my losses I never felt sick.. So all I can say is I better see a hb on Monday if I feel this yucky all the time..

 

[wookie130]

Skeet, I get an ultrasound on Monday too! I'll be 7w1 day along, so yours will look a bit more detailed than mine, I'm sure.

I'm praying that my baby is fine. This is my 3rd pregnancy in a year, and the last two I've miscarried. I have never seen a heartbeat on an ultrasound yet...so naturally, I'm freaking out.

 

[skeet9924]

I've never seen on either wooki!! I'm freaking out to.. I'm having a hard time believing that I will actually see on this time.. ( does that sound bad?) I know from my last us that it's not ectopic .. Which is a bonus.. I just keep having a feeling they are going to say the baby stopped growing . However on a positive note, this is the longest I've made ur in a pregnancy yet with out any spotting I don't think our us will look much different I'm only a few days ahead of you. Best of luck on Monday!! Keep us posted!!

Hoping one of you can reassure me or help me out! We had an early scan at 5w6d and saw a tiny baby measuring 3mm with the smallest little heartbeat. I felt really happy and reassured immediately after the u/s but for the last week I've been wondering about what the tech said to us. When she saw the heart she guessed it had only started beating like 6 hours ago because it was so small (and DH remembers her saying it wasn't super strong). The baby measured exactly what I thought I was based on ovulation (although DS measured a few days ahead at my 12week u/s with him and I thought this baby might too). My HCG levels were 48, 000 which is in the normal range for 6 weeks but on the high side. I'm just wondering if I should have seen more based on my HCG levels and if I should be worried that the heartbeat not being really strong. I won't have another u/s until 12ish weeks which feels like forever away.

I hate the first trimester. I'll feel so much better when I can feel the baby moving.

I felt exactly the same today after my last pregnancy ending do badly at the scan. I felt so sok with nerves going in this morning but it was amazing. Just stay positive and we will keep our fingers crossed for you both.

Hi, wondering if I can join you?

Just found out I am pregnant today after having a negative test at 10 dpo. About 7 weeks gone, edd about 18th March next year. Bit shocked at the moment!

As this is my second, am slightly concerned about my symptoms. My main symptoms last time were really really dark nipples and morning sickness. This time I have had no colour change, nausea but no sickness and a lot of cramping. Getting worried now that everything's so different :$

I'm right there with you, my symptoms are totally different this time...last time I was so sick with morning sickness, I'd had it almost 2 weeks by this point last time, this time...no sickness, no nausea, just tired! I'm panicking about it too.

To be honest, at 5w6d, the hb won't be very strong yet...not until somewhere in the 7-8 week range will it be stonger, and faster. I wouldn't worry about anything. At 6 weeks, the heart is just starting to beat.
