I hear you honey. That bleed does sound scary and concerning. But I've read so many amazing stories of women who bled throughout their pregnancies, so obviously it isn't as rare as it sounds! There is always hope which is a lovely thing.

I'm feeling ok. Not many symptoms. Very anxious for my scan. I keep having flashbacks to my last two pregnancies when I got bad news during my scans. I have to keep reminding myself that this is a different pregnancy. It is hard though. But, like you, trying to be excited and enjoy the moment.

Aww i knw how u feel. When i picture having my scan, all i can picture is the sonographer's face looking concerned and the silence being deafening in the room... i cnt shake it. I am going to close my eyes and not even look this time, intill i hear the words 'there's your baby' please god. I hope we both get some peace of mind soon and are able to revel in our pregnancies xxx

 

[heart tree]

That's a good idea, I'm going to close my eyes too. I already imagine myself crying before I even hear the news. Oh, these hormones don't help the situation do they! I'm a mess! LOL! One day at a time is all we can do. Today is a lovely day here and I'm going to get some fresh air and relax. Hope you are relaxing today too!

AQ i had my son on his EDD so mr punctuality! , bleeding is brown and not much more than spotting (tmi) i put a pad on to keep an eye on it and they arnt being filled before i change them, just a bit on the pad, i am trying to relax, but we are going to see eclipse later! i will be sitting down though so not running a marathon,
i dont actually feel sad or anything though i actually feel optimistic if anything, just would love to know whats going on, my auntie told me she bled through all her pregnancys, and she has 3 healthy children, trying to put it to the back of my mind really, all will be revealed sooner or later x

 

[Boothh]

and with the scan thing i know what you mean, with my son straight away she said well youve got a wriggley little thing here, with my mmc they just kept whispering to each other and she said ;we will explain what weve seen in a minute' so i knew it was bad xx

 

[Nixilix]

Hope you get fab news soon booth xx

I've slept most ofthe day apart from trip to tesco! Just had a milkybar. Couldnot decide on lunch so had cereal!!

I think u will be fine;-) how many dpo are u?

Yes i just pray when i have my scan that there is no long period of silence like last time. I kept saying can u see it, and all she would say is 'there is nothing in the uterus' and then she went and got the nurse
Intill i have a happy scan experience i cannot get that from my mind xxx

Booth - my friend had bled early in her pregnancy, and they told her it was a threatened miscarriage.They did an ultrasound on her, and the baby had a strong heartbeat and the cervix was closed. She is now 16 weeks along and everything is going great. Bleeding definitely seems to be normal in early pregnancy, but I would definitely keep an eye on it as well. Wishing you all the best!

HI ladies, just wanted to say hello and congratulations to you all.

[Nixilix]

Hey Hun thanks, I'm saving your spot here in 1st tri xxxxx

 

[MumtoJ]

Would you believe it ... it looks like DS has come down with Chicken Pox - looks like a couple of spots so will know for sure by morning. Not what I need with how tired and grotty I'm feeling.

On a better note had a great tea of sausages and salad with some of the salad leaves coming from the garden. Yum can't get fresher than that - picked and eaten within the hour.

Hope you have all had lovely days today.

 

[africaqueen]

Oh No! isnt chickenpox dangerous when u are pregnant? hope ur ds feels better soon.
I had shingles(adult chicken pox) and i was sooo ill for 4mths!

Well i just had a lovely soak in the bath and i noticed that my tummy is like a lil pot belly! i am a big girl anyway(size 18-20) but my tummy has always been flat really.
I think its more bloat than baby bump tho! haha xxx

Natty1985, Africaqueen and Shrimpy, thanks very much for that information on the private scans in England. 150pounds for an early scan is pretty steep - I will google my options

March mommies, look forward to hearing how your early scans go if you are having one

I am getting over a pretty awful cold (must have got it on the tube). I was really worried about the cold but have no fever which I heard is when things get serious. My week 6 is coming up and I am not looking forward to the possible MS and disturbed sleep that you guys have been describing especially since I work full time and long hours.....still only have big sore boobs and cramps on and off for now.

 

[msarkozi]

AQ - hope you will show us pictures of your baby bump Mine is slowly coming along
