Morning ladies.

Scan today so I am super nervous. Was awake from 3am - 5.30am with everything running through my head.

It's at 10:30 so we are leaving home about 9.45 (hospital is only 20 minutes away but we always give ourselves lots of time.

First job is to shave my pubes so if they roll my trousers down lots they're not all poking over the top!

Omg cupcake I just at that hope everything goes ok x

 

[CupcakeBaby]

Honestly because DH and I aren't having sex I'm just not bothering with them. It's awful!

 

[Tournesol]

cupcake! Good luck at your scan x

I'm with you Amanda and Manu, I just stay in here for chatting mainly. Sometimes I peek into other threads, but not often. This is my comfort zone too!

Amanda, I'm going team pink for you too!

Pad, congrats on your peach!!

I am STILL being sick and feeling nauseous for about 80% of every day. When will this end?!

Oh you poor thing! Have you mentioned that you're still feeling like this to your Dr??

Hey ladies.

Here's my scan picture:

Measuring exactly for the date I thought. She says all looks perfect and then mentioned she couldn't see the stomach, so that's shaken me a little, but I know it's tiny this early. So hopefully all be visible in 4 weeks as my gender scan is all booked.

Any nub/skull guesses?

Tour: I am sick all day as well. Nothing works its just constant sea sickness. I'll feel ok for about 5 minutes after I eat then ill start feeling sick again. They offered me meds but I declined bc I'm already on the thyroid meds and I'm not vomiting so I'm just hoping it goes away soon!

Cupcake- awwww what a great scan pic! I can't make gender guesses on skull but I'm pretty good at nub theory but I don't see a nub in your pic. Don't worry about them not seeing tummy. When I went for my 12 week scan the doctor told me its too early to see the organs and that's what the 16-20 week scan is for.

Good luck to everyone on up and coming scans. We are In the middle of a huge hurricane where I live so I'm hoping we don't lose power!!!

 

[CupcakeBaby]

Thanks courtney That's really reassuring.

Fingers crossed for you that the weather doesn't get too bad where you are and you keep power.

Xxxxx

 

[MissMummyMoo]

Aww beautiful picture cupcake. Try not to worry coz as you day everything is still so small. Babies only about 6-7cm so still so tiny to think there's a who organ system and heart etc in there!! X

 

[CupcakeBaby]

Thanks MMM.

58mm to be precise - which is spot on for 12w2d so I'm still the same due date. X

 

[MissMummyMoo]

Aw that's great hun so when have you booked your gender scan for? X

 

[CupcakeBaby]

Nov 24th - eeeee!

 

[MissMummyMoo]

Not long at all then. Ours is booked for the 25th although I'm going to see about changing it to 24th and going late night shopping at Teesside Park afterwards, just need to see if MIL can have the kids on the Saturday X

 

[EMTAmanda]

Cupcake I guess girl on the skull theory!! Beautiful scan by the way!

 

[ILuvBabies200]

Nurse visit today....tons of info!!! I finally see the OB Friday and will hopefully hear baby's hb!!!

 

[ILuvBabies200]

LOL Cupcake!!!!! Nice scan btw!!

As for me I'm declining all the genetic testing. Nurse said there is too high a false positive rate and they require an amnio at 20 weeks for a positive test. Forget about adding anymore stress.....

 

[CupcakeBaby]

Thanks for the kind words ladies.

Here's something interesting. She asked me if I was still feeling sick so I said yes.

Then during the scan she found the yolk sac still there, very small compared to baby, but she straight away said "that's why you feel sick then"

I'd not heard that before, but hoping as its really small now it'll disappear soon (apparently usually does by week 13) and then I'll get some relief!

Was weird to see it though as the umbilical cord was pumping away so baby must be hooked up to it, so was a surprise to see it there, but apparently quite common.

 

[MightyMom]

Cupcake: I am guessing

Omg the top of my moms tree flew off from this hurricane! Please keep us in your thoughts its getting crazy here. Wind gusts up to 80 an hour!
