March rainbows 2018

Scan done, just waiting to see the consultant now. Baby measuring one day behind and a small bleed near to baby but they said they aren't worried at all. Got to see baby moving around which was just the best. Dating scan is on the 6th but will probably have another scan in the middle.

Good luck to everyone with scans this week. Thinking of you all.
 
Glad everything seems ok and their not worried about it. Love seeing baby jumping round on scans! X
 
Fantastic news Maryanne :) and good you have an in- between scan before your 12 week one :)

I am mega paranoid as only got my kittens two weeks before I got my bfp so I am having myself tested for toxoplasmosis. My OH thinks I am crazy. On a good note, I will know the results within 4 hours.

I am spending a fortune on private scans and tests, ooooops.
 
I think when you have had multiple losses it's worth it! X
 
Yay scan week!
Congrats Maryanne on a good scan.

Kristy, good luck on your scan today

I am having issues sleeping lately. Falling asleep and staying asleep keeping my mind quiet. anyone else in the same boat?
 
Sweetkat - I totally understand wanting extra tests and scans. You have had multiple losses, anyone would need some reassurance in your situation. I say, if you can afford it, go for it. I'm sure you are fine regarding toxoplasmosis though. I think it is pretty rare and I assume you haven't been the one scooping the litter. I wouldn't worry, but I'm glad you are able to get quick results to ease your mind.

I'm still nervous about my scan tomorrow. I feel silly. We heard the heartbeat on Saturday, I should be confident. I think it is just the thought of going back to the same place with the same doctor. I can't shake the memory of being on that table being told there was no heartbeat.
 
It isn't silly karoolia to feel that way. I am going out of my way and booking scans with different companies, because I don't want the memories that I had with my previous scans. Even the good scans, I am just scared of memories of his pregnancy will trigger me into a complete meltdown.
 
I'm glad to know I'm not the only one. I seriously considered going elsewhere for that very reason, but my OB is known by pretty much everyone to be the best in the area. With DH having worked with most of them and only really feeling confident sending me to this guy, it was just too hard to refuse and see someone else.

Fortunately (assuming this goes well) any future pregnancies will be after we move back to Canada so it will feel like a fresh start.
 
Not silly to feel that way at all. I still can't into our epu for the exact same reason. Any scans are difficult for me but I know I couldn't cope with another scan there. Good luck to you and Kirsty for tomorrow
 
So in case anyone else is worried about toxoplasmosis - mine came negative for historical and current infection and I had cats for a year when I was young and for 4 years in my twenties. I always cleaned the litter tray in my twenties.

I also had beef tartare and Parma ham and the odd medium rare stake (before pregnancy). Anyway, guessing you would have to be unlucky to catch it.

From now on OH is cleaning the litter tray :)
 
I think they are going to say sorry, no heartbeat at every scan. Once you have experienced it once it's hard to get that memory out of your head!

I totally understand the anxiety and the fear! Not silly at all.
 
Kirsty, good luck for your scan tomorrow. I will be checking your updates from France :) (I have roaming included in my package).
 
Thanks Sweetkat. It is almost 2:30 here now so by this time tomorrow I will know what is going on. I'm not sure how I'll ever manage to sleep tonight.
 
Karoolia, you heard the heartbeat a couple of days ago so the chances are everything is fine. But I know worrying isn't a rational thing and I worry non stop, so I totally understand what it's like.

Hopefully this time next year we will all be here exchanging baby stories :)
 
Thank you. I'm so so scared. I'm away to bed. I just want tomorrow to hurry up. Have a fab time in France sweetkat, hope you get good weather! X
 
Thinking of you both. Looking forward about to hearing about your great scans tomorrow :)

Have a good time on holiday sweetkat. I'm so jealous!
 
It's supposed to be really hot. Thing is, I am sooo fat and bloated looking it's a bit embarrassing lol. If I had an obvious bump it would be ok, but at the moment I just look like I have eaten way too much and grown a belly :)

Maybe people look at me and think I am pregnant, who knows, but if I saw me I wouldn't start asking when it's due because ha ha ha, I could just be a fatty :)

With my DD I still fitted into most clothes at 5 months (with zips undone at the back). Now I am dreading going back after the holiday, because I can't hide my pregnancy much longer and yet I don't want to announce yet.
 
Sweetkat, the nice thing about vacation is you probably won't see anyone you know so wear whatever you like and have a great time!

Maybe when you get back the weather will start to cool down and you can get away with adding a sweater. I have found an open sweater can pretty much transform the way you look.

Good luck Kirsty! Make sure you update! My morning of waiting won't be so bad if I have some good news to focus on.
 
I look like I've eaten too many pies I think. I have a quite obvious pot belly, and today was the first time someone asked me if I was pregnant but I think most people would just think it's a food baby.
