Afternoon girls,

How's everyones days been?

Congrats on the 8wks Genki, hope the appt goes well tomorrow!

Angel, I get the odd back ache, it feels a bit like dull AF pain. I'm glad your scan showed that everything was ok, put your feet up and try not to worry - twinges, aches and pains are all part of early pg.

I had my scan today - I'm a bit apprehensive though. In the UK you get told stuff like how many weeks/days you are and you get a picture etc but it doesn't seem to be like that here (Canada) as I didn't get any of that Basically the guy spent about 10-15mins probing my stomach and doing things on his computer, then at the end he turned the screen round and showed me the yolk sac and diddy little bean. He pointed to a little flutter, which was the hb (I got a little tear when I saw that) and that was it. I asked if everything was ok and if I got a picture and how many weeks I was and he said that I don't get a picture and that he couldn't tell me anything, that he has to send the report to my physician who then tells me what's in it. Is that normal? I'm thinking now that even though I saw the hb, something's wrong and he just wasn't telling me. Now I have to wait all the way til next thursday to see the Dr

Try not to worry too much. I know how hard that can be. During my first pregnancy (I am in the USA) I had an ultrasound done at 8/9 weeks and they didnt provide any of that info to me. I didnt ask they just checked for a HB and said see you at your next appt.

I think also if they use an older ultraound maching it is hard to measure things. Things are so very different here in the USA then everywhere else. The doctor does all the ultrasounds himself and there is never a 3rd party involved.

Hope you are feeling better!!!

Backaches are totally normal. I am still having them. I try to take a bath at night and that seems to help quite a bit. During my last pregnancy I went for massages becasue my sciatic nerve was KILLING me. Massages seemed to help with the aches in my lower back too.

Thanks MrsO, I'm sure the way it all happened was totally normal procedure for here, I think I'm just feeling a bit panicky as I'm in unfamiliar territory Roll on next thurs when hopefully the doc will tell me loads of reassuring stuff!

 

[mrso]

I was watching some of those baby shows today... Bringing home baby, Delivery me, and Baby on Board. Made me start to think about next fall when I deliver and I freak out. I was OMG OMG OMG what am I going to do.

Those panicky moments tend to creep up on us at the worst times. I bet everything is fine!!

Hi Ladies!

My OB appointment went GREAT! I am thrilled. Since I am doing this pregnancy without medical insurance, my doc is setting me up on a payment plan which is AWESOME! It will be really helpful! YAY! Baby has a very strong heartbeat of 189 BPM which made everyone glad and the change in baby size from 6+0 and 8+1 was AMAZING!!!! I am in shock but totally pleased. In my new pic, you can see the umbilical cord and the can make out the head and body. ^_^ I finally feel like there is a REAL baby in there!

The other awesome thing was that they gave me a prescription for Promethazine for my nausea and it does totally work! I can feel the slight nausea sensation but nothing overwhelming and so far my food has stayed down! I am in HEAVEN!

Aside from being exhausted, I am really happy with everything.

I hope you all are well!
