I measured right on track at my first ultrasound at 6w2d that measures correct with LMP. With DD I knew exactly when O was and she measured 3 days behind at every scan and they used the scan dates. With DS I measured 3 days ahead with him and they used those dates. We’ll see what they say.

My Doppler is from eBay it’s a sonoline B or something like that was like $25-30 I think and I just use regular hair gel because it’s much cheaper than ultrasound gel

I'm kind of hoping at my next scan they say I'm a few days extra and they don't put me back any more. My LMP was the 9th Jan and I have a 28 day cycle. I ovulated on the 23rd and was due my period on Wednesday the 6th Feb so I really think I am 7+1 and not 7 I just think she was out by 1 day. Hopefully at my next scan it will be dead on my dates or a few days ahead. Fingers crossed.
I'm sure 1 day really doesn't make any difference.
Ok hon I'll have a look on there. I'm in the UK but I'm sure they will have the same brands.

Hi ladies
Sooooo I had my scan and I can honestly say I was so nervous I was shaking.
But it went really well and she said everything is looking great so far.
She checked my overys just to make sure baby is in the right place and Thank God baby is in the right place and had a lovely fast flashing heartbeat.
She did say I was measuring 7 weeks. But I know I'm 7+1 because I know the day I O. And it's only one day so there ain't gonna b much difference.
Ladies I'm so in love I almost burst into tears when I see that HB flickering away.

Aloe Vera works great instead of ultrasound gel! And moisturizes your tummy

Thank you sweety yes it's been a long time coming haha. So glad I had it done was worth every penny.
Glad I waited till 7 weeks as well it's amazing how much you can see and how big baby was haha I was like oh wow it's quite big. I was expecting this speck of dust haha. The HB was so clear as well. I can not wait to hear it at my next scan. Or if MW finds it on Wed. Not sure if 8 weeks is a bit to early tho to hear HB

Ladies... I am really struggling. Feel nauseous ALL the time and just constantly exhausted. Walking a short distance feels like running a marathon sometimes. I've really struggled holding it together at work this week and the added pressure of trying to look like everything is fine so people don't guess... it's just all so much!!

My husband went to the pub last night for a quick drink after work and I picked him up at 7pm. He got in the car and I just burst into tears and couldn't stop crying. I feel so fed up of feeling poorly and tired and being useless! I know I'm not pulling my weight around the house at the moment and it's really upsetting me.

Really shouldn't complain because this is all part of the journey and we both really wanted me to get pregnant again after our loss in the summer. It's just hard though.

Sorry - needed to vent! Hope you are all doing ok xx

Im sorry youre not feeling that great Lady. Its hard when youre watching your home fall apart and can't muster up the energy to help fix it.

I had my first bout of morning sickness today and I've never been more happy.

 

[Suggerhoney]

Awwww
Ladystardust

Sweety please please don't feel bad about the housework and stuff like that. You are pregnant u are growing a baby in ure belly and it's exhausting.
Tiredness and neausea really hit me today. I feel like someone has zapped all my energy. So so drained and tired and feeling sick all day. Haven't been sick but just feeling icky.
Yes it's a positive a good sign and I'm not complaining I'm actually loving feeling pregnant but when u have alot to do and you can't rest it is really hard and totaly exhausting.
What u need is a lovely relaxing bath with lots of bubbles and a bit of you time. Sending huge hugs sweety. The 2nd trimester is just a few more weeks away be here b4 we know it. And hopfully everyone that's really suffering with being sick is feeling so much better.

Mine kicked in today as well. Mind with me it keeps coming and going. But today is the first day I've actually felt more sick. Even after I ate I still feel sick. Its dinner time now and I don't think I can face eating.
Boobs have grown and are sore and swollen and heavy. Also have terrible nasel congestion. And my mouth has so much Sylvia. (TMI)

 

[Jessie7003]

7 weeks tomorrow too! I feel like my nausea has just started... but no throwing up yet; your getting your scan before me; I have to wait until next Saturday but I hope all is well w/ yours!!

My sickness is back! Awww hopefully it flies in! Thank you!

Ok hon I'll have a look on there. I'm in the UK but I'm sure they will have the same brands.

Britney here in England they wait till the 12 weeks scan it's called the dating scan here. Not sure if it's the same in the US or not.
Also my scan was privet so none of that info will go to my doctor or midwife. Was supposed to say this last night but was so tired so sorry I didn't answer u properly.

My sickness has hit me today and the tiredness also getting alot of sharp pains either side of my pelvis in my lower belly it feels like everything is stretching so much but I'm not gonna complain. I'm welcoming these preganacy symptoms. The tiredness is like someone has drained me of all my energy hahaha. Nearly threw up just a minute ago. Also so my TMI saliva in my mouth.
Feel like a walking glowworm like my face is constantly hot hahaha.
Think now I've finally seen little one on a scan it's like hello symptoms.

How have you been feeling?

 

[Suggerhoney]

Mine hit me today hun. Been feeling sick all day today to the point I almost just threw up I've just forced my Self to eat some pasta and it's helped a bit. The tiredness also kicked in today. Hope it stays. I know that sounds weird but it's nice actually feeling pregnant

No I don't have a dating scan here. They normally just do an ultrasound around 8ish weeks and go from there. I'll have another ultrasound around 12, 20 and we'll do one more around 36 to check baby size. That is all my doctor gives. I will book a private scan around here for 3D/4D images. Its $200 and its 2 visits. One around 26ish weeks and another around 32ish weeks. These are 10 minutes each and you get a dvd with the entire scan on it.
I still feel good. Had a nap today so must have been tired and have a slight headache but other than that still nothing.

with my mmc the baby was measuring 8w6d so this week has me a little on edge. According to scan i would be 8w6d today. I haven't tried to hear heartbeat today, but I may try later this evening. Not sure yet.

I am feeling like this babe is a girl! Heartbeat was the highest heartbeat i've had on any of my babies! 173bpm! DD says its a girl too! I don't know if were going to find out or not. Right now we are not going to, but they may change down the road. We have one of each but truthfully we don't have a preference just HEALTHY! However I am a planner! Like I have to have things ready and be ahead of the game, not being this way brings me so much stress! I am worried this may happen. To keep that from happening I am going to be getting whatever newborn clothing I have left from DD and newborn clothing from DS all together and washed and stuff. i have a crib and such so that isn't a big deal, but I legit gave all of my other baby stuff away! So I have to get all new stuff there. My other big worry is my car... there is currently not enough room to fit a 3rd carseat in the back and I do not have a 3rd row in my car. Kicker is WE JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR at christmas!

Anyway enough rambling about me.. hope the sickness starts going away soon for everyone else. I feel bad getting on here and always saying i'm not feeling sick.

 

[butterflywolf]

Sorry I poofed, I'll do that especially right now as I'm quite busy! Anyway had our scan, measuring exactly where I thought at 6 weeks 5 days. 139 heartbeat. There was another area in my uterus, very small, that is more than likely a pool of blood but it's so small they aren't worried, but I may spot a day or two coming up here. Honestly I'm not worried as I had the same thing with Claire when I was pregnant with her and had a scan early on. I never did spot though with hers.
I go for another apt in 4 weeks on March 29th and that's just the typical apt that I will be going for once a month now. I know I'll probably have extra scans again come later in the pregnancy due to my having big babies. I pray with my eating healthier and being healthier in general I wont grow this one as big as my son (10 pounds 5 oz and 21.5 inches)

 

[WishMeABaby]

Im in the boat with the 7w ladies. 4w,5w,6w?? ahh.... sickness not much just a little here and there, nothing to complain about, but here comes the 7th week and I'm gagging every chance I get. Have you guys ever smelled "warm bananas" before I mean "ripe warm bananas?" Let me just tell you . TIRED?? Its on a whole new level, I think I can fall asleep while walking, that's how tired I am.

Happy Healthy 9 months everyone, We can do this.

• My body was made for this
• I deserve an easy and uncomplicated pregnancy
• I am healthy; My body is healthy
• My baby is growing perfectly and in good health

My house is tore up, too. My husband has been cleaning and its just.............. dot dot dot dot DOT. They say, if you ain't got nothing nice to say, don't say anything.

 

[Nolimitxox]

LMAO wish!!!! I sooooo agree with you on the quality of husband cleaning. At least they try right?!

Yes, at least they try. DH would be so proud that he did the dishes (thats him cleaning the house,) and all i can see is how messy the counter along with the floor is. lol
