Welcome Mama1985! A Halloween baby!! (sorry, I bet you will get sick of that :blush: )
 
Wow our Bumpkins group is big now! October seems to be the month to have a baby :happydance:
 
I am so relieved to hear I'm not the only one.

Elsa50501, it wasn't sour. I'm starting to think it's the vitamins or maybe the iron more specifically because I haven't taken anything is 2 days now and I'm getting better. Still alittle nausea but that I can deal with. Like zephyr said it's probably the iron. I see a hematologist so I think I'll just skip the iron tablets for now and see about getting an infusion instead. I'm probably due for one soon anyway.

Thanks mrseleflump, I had no clue what it was called and it's hard to good something that you don't know the name for and I couldn't even think of the word capillaries lol my brain is mush right now

Kiki28, I had a very vivid boy dream last night as well. I dreamt I was getting an ultrasound and I could clearly see the boy bits lol

I go in for an appointment with the high risk doctor on Friday so I'm hoping they agree that these broken Capillaries are just from vomiting and not something totally crazy. And maybe just maybe they'll take a peek and see what were having or at least give me a definitive date for my level 2 scan. Ugh the suspense is making this week go so slow lol
 
Sprite, I was told to take mine before bed as that works for some people but me, I woke up vomiting in my sleep it was awful :(

I know theres different types you can take there was a liquid iron supplement that still made me sick but it wasnt as bad as the pills.
Hopefully they can sort something for you when you see them!
 
Sorry to the ladies who are still being/feeling sick :(

Welcome to the new mummies as well :)

I just booked my gender scan for FRIDAY!! Can't wait :)
 
^that's exciting!

and, yes, i also keep getting the broken capillaries. so tired of throwing up - looking forward to just being constantly nauseous without the throwing up because that just takes all my energy and makes me feel worse than not throwing up...

we'll get there! :)

welcome new moms!

Super exciting! :)
Can't wait to find out what your having! Any feelings on gender?
 
I don't know really ... I was thinking girl because it's the exact same cravings I had with my girl .... But this time has differed to all three with the headaches, spots, dry skin etc so, really not sure at all :)
 
I think I'm going to book a gender scan for the next couple of weeks! Has anyone had one and what are they like? I'm debating the 3d scans as I'm not sure if ill like them or not!

I've had a few private scans now. The official gender one was great-he gave us a glimpse in 3D and a pic, and lots of normal scan pics.

I highly recommend them. I had mine at 16 weeks.
 
I had gender scans at 16 weeks with both my daughters and have one booked this time for 16+1, 15th May. I love them!

Just curious, is there any one who's on a subsequent pregnancy that can't feel their uterus yet? I can't feel anything yet and this is my 3rd baby. I thought it'd move up sooner too since I only had a baby 6 months ago. I'm starting to worry myself now as both my other children had IUGR in the later stages and im scared this baby isn't growing properly. I thought I'd be able to feel something by now but everything is still squishy.

Can never really tell when I prod my belly personally.
I'm sure if it didn't look right at your 12 week scan, they would have noticed honey . Don't worry.
:flower:
Are they going to offer you third tri scans to keep an eye on this baby, given your history? Is definitely push for it if they don't.

Can't wait to see your gender update :)
 
In my first preg i had GD so i had a routine growth scan expecting to find a huge baby but instead the opposite! second pregnancy i had routine growth scan at 28 weeks too and found the same

this time the actual consultant im under is doing a scan for me at 20 weeks to look at the placenta and blood flow. I guess normal sonographers cant do that? I dont know! she said they dont anyway. Apparently its different to the doppler scans i had in my previous pregnancies after 28 weeks to check the cord flow and it can indicate whether or not ill have the same problems with growth and how my actual placenta is functioning and if it comes back positive for any of those things they are going to routinely scan me every week from 24 weeks this time to keep a close eye on things and if its inconculsive then they will wait to do a growth scan at 28 weeks again. x

Glad they are going to get a consultant to do a detailed scan. I had growth issues around 28/29 weeks last time and it's such a worry. To know they are being cautious is good :flower:

It is reassuring! Are you going to be having growth scans too? How did every thing go in the end? did they let you go to term and how big was your little one? x
 
I had to have growth scans with dd as she only had a 2 vessel cord and agree it's such a worry. She turned out fine though, arrived 6 days early weighing 5lb 13oz. Glad they're looking after you with the consultant scan :)
 
With me, my waters had been leaking, and fundal height was low. Scans confirmed this. They scanned me weekly and predicted a 5lb baby and gave steroids at 29 weeks.
Waters got back to normal and everything went great she was 7lbs 7
8oz at 40+6

No extra scans have been offered, but I will push for them if the fundal heights low again. Although shockingly bad nhs treatment where I am!

Allstat-glad your baby was ok, must have had you stressed. :flower:
 
Where are you yo yo?

I don't even know what to look for when feeling for my uterus .... So, I've not even felt where mine is sister rose.
