Well thanks girls. She was my Great Aunt. She fought a long battle with lung failure and bowel cancer. I will always see her as I used to when I was a little girl, with a smoke in one hand and a bottle of diet pepsi in the other. I would like to go home for her funeral, I'll have to see when it is and maybe my husband can get the day off work.
I'm glade you think my names aren't way out there redsox. I have a different name myself so I told my hubby our children couldn't have "common" names lol. My name is actually Shaumini. It's Sha-ma-knee.

Thank you for the phonetic spell out - you poor thing - you have probably been doing that your whole life!!!

What is the origin of your name? It's lovely.

I have been doing that my whole life. I actually done it without thinking. It gets so bad some days I've considered getting a "work" name Or using my middle name (Eileen) . I know the name is Indian. There was a Indian doctor in the hospital where I was born and that was his daughters name. I have no idea what it means. I haven't been able to find it anywhere. But it makes me unique lol.

So cool. I had a hunch it might be Indian. Did your parents just go with it after you were born?

hey ladies!!! I'm baccckkkkk! So everything went great!!! This is a new doctor I am seeing as my previous doc doesn't use the hospital next to my house and I refuse to drive 30 minutes when I have a hospital next to my house that I have been going too since I was 2. so, she was great! It was actually the RN practitioner but still ~ she was great. Really nice and easy to talk too so that was comforting.

I told her about my issue when wiping when I went the bathroom and she said that was normal as it was old blood due to it not being so red - I told her about my sister having twins and she said that the Ultrasound was booked and couldn't fit me in but she would "cheat" and do it herself! I was sooo excited! So she scanned me and there is only 1 in there (my sister is sad, she wanted me to have twins! lol). she let me hear the heartbeat too, a nice and strong 153!!! She did have me book another ultrsound with the tech next week for something more formal! All in all great day ladies!

Hey Ladies,

Pristock that's ace that she scanned you and you got to hear the h/b - wish mine had done that but they said they don't do the heartbeat this early

Managed to get myself worried that on Monday when I was scanned they told me the baby only measure 6 weeks and I know I should have been nearer 7. I asked them was it exactly 6 weeks and they said they couldn't tell and it was approx - so I guess it could be a bit more. I'm counting tomorrow as week 7 - BUT!! I am worried is the baby not growing as it should?

I Googled - bad idea i know - and I fond that 2.7mm indicates 5 to 6 weeks?

I'm really worrying and I can't tell DH cos he just keeps saying "Don't worry, it's no good for you or for the baby" which I know but I can't help it

P.s. whoever asked ages, I'm 33 x

Thanks for tips babydance. Why were you asking sizes Firsttimer to do with doppler? I'm a uk 6/8... ok, well I was last month Does that have any bearing on anything?

Pristock - I am so jealous you had a scan but great news that all was well

Luv my bichon - Didn't they do an abdominal scan on you though? They are never accurate at such an early stage. I was really surprised when you said (I think you said that anyway?). I bet you will be closer to your date when you have your next scan. My friend was also put back by a week and stayed at that. I remember worrying for her but all was well and she now has a 1 year old xx

Newfielandy - Lovely names I have not thought about any of that yet

Firsttimer - What did you buy???

2nd time

MsCrow - What does the dress look like?

 

[MsCrow]

I love the name Shaumini and don't think it's too difficult to say...but then my surname has been spelt out for people all my life so I feel your annoyance! So sorry about your great aunt

Great news about the scan pristock

Luv, I think between 6 and 7 weeks things can vary a lot! At 7.5 I was told 8, things slow and catch up all the time.

I'm 31.

 

[MsCrow]

Widger, it's plain black, perfect for mega accessories! Here it is. The fit is lovely, I'm usually an 8-10 and it's a Picchu 0. Only time I'll ever be a 0 lol.

 

[redsox]

Pristock! I am thrilled for you! Great results and what a lovely RN that hooked you up. We all deserve sweet care like that.

I am beaming at my desk for you.

Bichon - Please - please - please do not sweat the measurements. When the bean is that tiny it's very difficult to get exact in millimeters, so please do no fret. I assured myself this over and over before I had mine and hilariously I measured larger than I thought. This still might be chalked up the margin of error. We'll have a MUCH better idea at the 12 week + scans.

As for age, I am so happy that Bichon and I are both a wise 33.

Lovely MsCrow

I'm 34... oldest well, so far

Well I will be 34 when the baby is born and it will be my first, so no pity party for you.

Thanks MsCrow, I didn't know that - hoping by the time I go for my next scan a week on Monday I'll be showing a bigger bean

We'll have a MUCH better idea at the 12 week + scans.

The nurse did say that at this early stage a millimetre can be the difference in a few days...so ok, I'll try not to worry. Honestly I do my own head in! I'm just worrying so much cos when I was scanned we thought I'd be past the 6 and half week stage for sure which is when I had the m/c - anyway, I'm going to try really hard and focus on the fact that I saw a strong little heartbeat flashing away on that screen which I didn't see with the last pg.

As for age, I am so happy that Bichon and I are both a wise 33.

Wise? Me? Hmmmm, more like ------>

Yes all we can do is focus on little heartbeats and that is a MAJOR step forward. Don't do yourself in over millimeters right now. The funny thing? They told me AND wrote on my scan that I am 5 CENTIMETERS. I was like "that is HUGE!" I know they meant millimeters or I would be like 10-12 weeks! Ha!

I chose to think of 33 as wise so I don't feel old.

 

[firsttimer1]

Bichon - ur hubby is right, stop googling!

Pristock - congrats Brill news, u must be so happy

widger- apparently if u carry extra weight on tummy a Doppler may take a bit longer to find hb

I didn't buy anything tonight - ended up too tired to go out!!! Lol

 

[struth]
