I’ve found heartbeat several times since 8w, but freaking myself out now because I couldn’t find it last night or this morning and idk if it’s my Doppler that’s messed up or what... it’s getting to me pretty good though because I was so sick over the weekend and have lost several pounds since.

I'm sure baby is just being naughty and hiding, they are still so very small at this stage, I know how worrying it is. Sending you hugs @brittany12 x

Scan date 29th March 2.30pm. Knew I would get brought in at 11 weeks because by my LMP I'll be 12 weeks 1 day by then. My cycle is 32-35 days rather than 28 and I only had unprotected sex one day and was convinced I felt myself ovulate. Just in time for mothers day in the UK which is the 31st so might announce it then all being well!

Thank you. It’s just a bad feeling I’m having. I called my doctor and they’re going to bring me in tomorrow for an ultrasound and visit with my doctor. So we’ll know soon enough. Praying everything is ok

 

[brittany12]

I found heartbeat!!! Lower than normal and the sound wasn’t as strong I guess because the placenta drowns it out maybe? Or baby had moved to farther back in there? Idk but I found it and it was 166bpm so I feel much better now! But... still considering leaving my appointment so I can see baby again!

Everything will be ok hon.. still way too early to detect HB consistently

Fab news, I would be tempted the keep the appointment as well, any chance to see baby x

This pregnancy has just been so different from my others I think! Very unpredictable I think is a better word maybe!
Like food wise with dd is was all about sweets and with son it was all about salty and this one it’s up in the air and just whatever I can manage to make sound good other than dang soda!
Sickness: dd had the most nausea but I was aldo on progesterone supplements, ds a little nausea randomly throughout the day, this one basically none minus a couple of days here and there unless I was sick with the stomach bug!
Heartbeat: dd found at 7w and some days and found super easy after that and was 150s, ds found at 8 weeks and again super easy to find after that and always 130s, this one took forever to find at 8 weeks and it’s been difficult to find but it’s been in the 165-175 range
Weight: dd no weight gain til second tri but I gained everywhere especially boobs very early, ds no weight gain in first tri lost weight in second trimester and all belly and boobs third tri, this one I had put on 6 pounds at my appointment on 2/28 but I have now lost all 6 of those as second tri is creeping up!
Nerves: dd I really wasn’t all that worried even though It had taken 3 years to get pregnant and I had a chemical prior, ds again I wasn’t quite as worried after the first few weeks even though I was coming off of a mmc, this time I’m constantly thinking things are wrong!


Someone please tell me they’re right there with me and I’m not the only crazy one! If this is your third or more pregnancy have any of them been similar?

I'm pregnant with my 3rd and this is by far my worst first tri.. my other 2 (both girls) where polar opposite to each other pregnancy my eldest I went off most of my fav foods all fizzy drinks on my second was smooth sailing was very rarely sick and could eat anything.. I know they say age affects pregnancy aswell but I'm only 30 so wouldn't of thought I would have been this bad. This baby is already grounded till its 18 with how bad this first tri has been

I lost this group the other week.

Hello everyone I'm bumblebee pregnant with #3 due on 6th October.

We had an early scan at 7 weeks due to bleeding which has since stopped and baby was happy with a good heart beat. Now we're 10 weeks and have our 12 week scan booked on 26th of this month eek.

Xxxx

Hi ladies.. good to see scan pics and strong heart beats..
So I have ordered a Doppler off Amazon today..
By when can u start hearing the HB. I'll b 10weeks on Friday and my order comes on Wednesday, so should I expect to hear something?? Tia

Hi hon I think u can pick them up around 8 weeks although it's not very acurate and can be harder to find.
My midwife won't even attempt to listen to baby's heartbeat untill ure 14 weeks I and so was looking at Dopplers and on the information bit alot of them say not recommend b4 14 weeks. So I've held of from buying one for now because if I can't find the HB it will just make me worry.
U can always give it a go when ure dopler arrives it won't hurt anyone will it hon so if u feel comfortable with trying it out b4 the 14 week stage then id say go for it.
Please don't panic if u can't find it tho I didn't find my DD untill I was 16 weeks and my MW didn't find it untill I was 17 weeks turned out my placenta was at the front cushioning the sound.

I really truly believe in my heart that ure little baba is just fine.
I didnt find my DD HB untill I was 16 weeks and MW didn't find it untill I was 17 weeks. Turned out my placenta was at the front so that's why.
I know it's so hard not to worry I'm a right old worry wart but I really believe u will be fine.

Hi ladies had my bloods 're done today and the nurse said ure having these a bit late arnt you? and me looking totaly confused was like eh???
So she said ure quite far gone and I said no I'm only 8 weeks and 5 days as far as I'm aware!
Her jaw hit the floor and she was like no way are you only that I wud put you at the very least 5 months. Hmnmmmm not amused lol.
Anyway I said to her I may be a week extra or a few days extra but no more.
She then said twins and laughed.

They don't know about the privet scan I had so I didn't say anything hoping this will extra prompt a scan b4 the almost 13 week dating one on 9th April.
Not heard anything from the hospital yet but hope i do one day this week.

If by this time next week I still haven't heard anything then I think i will have to go and have another privet scan at 10 weeks just for the peace of mind because I had that misscarage at 10+ weeks so I'm getting a bit edgy. I did have a bleed at 6 weeks with that MC tho and so far I've had no bleeding at all so hoping that means all is good. I am worried about MMC tho but praying that my baby is healthy with a strong HB . Still got another 4 weeks till my dating scan so long.

The one thing good about your scan being nearly 13 weeks is you'll see a lot more! So try to see it as a positive though I understand the worry! I worry about lots too!

So glad I’m not alone! I’m 29 so right there with you but the amount of anxiety I’ve had since finding out has been crazy!

I think maybe my placenta is that way.. can a placenta move? Is that a dumb question? But I can pick up other sounds so we’ll but baby’s heartbeat now sounds so distant but it’s still beating strong at 166bpm!

I know the placenta can move but I dunno how quickly/dramatically? Baby can definitely move though so could be why it sounds more distant!

I actually found my little bean on the Doppler today. Shocked, because I honestly didn’t think it was possible to pick it up so early. It took some time (I restricted myself to 10 minutes only, lol) but I made sure my bladder was full and put the Doppler where I remembered the ultrasound tech scanned. It was veeery difficult to find and pretty quiet, but I heard the little train chugging away. Now I’m planning on leaving her/him alone for a while

We had a little scare today. My morning sickness is really an all day sickness and it's been preventing me from getting any water or food. Hadn't eaten since dinner last night which I ended up throwing up so really lunch yesterday. My ob wanted me to go to the immediate care and get some IV fluids and zofran but then I started spotting so we went to the ER instead. All is well with me and baby. We got to see our little heartbeat fluttering away again. We should be going home shortly. We were allowed to eat. First time in over 24 hours since give had food in my stomach and I am so greatful. They found the source of my spotting which is a blood blister in my uterus. Thankfully it's nothing to worry about though the doctor told me I will spot this pregnancy for sure, and it will not affect the baby whatsoever. Totally thankful for my wonderful nurses and doctors tonight that made sure I was feeling better, got something to eat, and helped control my dehydration.
