Yes I saw the miscarriage piece. I really hope it can make a difference & keeps getting funding.

Good luck Florida!

newly I had an empty sac at 6 weeks, then fetal pole, heartbeat and yolk sac at 7 weeks!

sorry I haven't been on that much lately - I'm very close to 3rd tri now which I'm still pinching myself to believe! Unfortunately I've just been diagnosed with gestational diabetes so going to see a diabetes educator in the next couple of days. I'm going to be induced anyway at 38 weeks as I already have high blood pressure, so I'm guessing as long as I can control it with my diet it'll be just another thing to monitor. can't wait to meet my little man

Newly - 5 weeks is really early, last time I had a 6 week scan the sonographer was confused about why they'd sent me before 7 weeks as they often can't see anything. Good luck! x

Florida - nice to hear from you again, hope everything works out for you x

Dairy - glad you can TTC again, sorry the doctor was difficult x

Mitchi - congratulations on 24 weeks! There's been a lot in the news about the new research centre, it's great and hope it makes a big difference x

Ginny - sorry to hear about the gestational diabetes, congratulations on the 3rd trimester x

Ginny, can't believe how quick your pregnancy is going!

This is a link to tommys early miscarriage clinic. Three of those people were involved in my care to get Orion here https://www.tommys.org/our-organisa...s/tommys-national-centre-miscarriage-research

Really interesting Tasha. I'm hoping I'll never need to look into that in future but I have bookmarked it just in case.

Squig and ginny, so delighted to see you ladies are not only pregnant with your rainbows, but in 3rd tri! Wow guess I've been away longer than I thought! X

I am so excited for all of the familiar faces in the third tri as well!!

just got back from my appointment... we had a yolk sac and a flickering heart beat at 6 weeks!

I am feeling confident partly bc i am soooooo sick. The morning sickness has been seriously kicking my butt- very diff from my DD's pregnancy. It is keeping me distracted from the PARL anxiety at least but also from my little one and I'm feeling so guilty I feel weird keeping this all from my family also but i really wanted to wait so i would be able to give them good news without the doubt or worry this time. nursing aversion kicking in full effect also so it has been a big change in my and DDs daily routine which has honestly been hard for both of us.

but i am also grateful n excited - so many feelings.

the u/s tech measured me at 5w5d but i know 100% i am 6w today- should i worry about that or no?

 

[blueblue]

newly - congratulations on your scan! x

 

[dairymomma]

newly-nope. Remember they are trying to use sound waves to measure something the size of a pea in your uterus and there's all your insides in between. It's understandable to have a day or two off at this point when you look at it that way. Also, my older kids measured 5-7 days smaller than my lmp dates my entire pregnancy even though I knew when I ovulated for both. Some babies do just measure small.

 

[Squig34]

Newly, as Dairymomma says, not at all. 2 days is really nothing at this stage. Great news on a hb!

 

[wookie130]

Congrats, Newly! Sounds like things are looking great at this point...do NOT worry about being a day off. Nothing to sweat!

 

[dan-o]

Congrats on a good scan newly. All 3 of my rainbows have been several days behind at 6w ish, I definitely wouldn't be worried xx

 

[vietmamsie]

Newly - woot woot! Great news!

So excited to see so many going for another baby - its so exciting! So happy for everyone!

 

[newlywedtzh]

all is looking well ladies measuring spot on...good heart rate.

 

[dairymomma]

Good to hear, newly!

 

[blueblue]

Newly, that's great x

 

[Squig34]

Good news, newly

 

[InVivoVeritas]

So glad to hear it, newly!
