Steph thats great news! I'm so happy for you and that you got to see the flickering HB! Awesome!
 
Great news Steph - will they need to keep an eye on that placenta if it is low? Forgive me - I know nothing about these things!!

As for hair - I have an appointment on Friday to have my hair dyed. From what I've read it seems to be fine now - having said that I'm just having highlights and so it doesn't touch the head and hence isn't absorbed. Were you planning highlights or a full colour?
 
That got me thinking so I looked it up... This is what the NHS says....

Hi ladies, Welcome all the new comers. This thread is such a positive one.

For hair dying, I'm a hairdresser by trade and had my hair done on friday. I just had foils but would not hesitate to have a full colour done. the likelyhood that your head will absorb the colour is very slim. colour molecules are quite fat and would have trouble crossing into the blood stream. That is not to say that they can't and it's a completely personal decision and that is just my opinion as a PAL and hairdresser. Also foils doin't touch your head so would be perfectly safe, if your worried about regrowth and your baby too get them to do foils closer to your natural colour so you can go longer between colours and protect your baby.

afm - had my scan yesterday baby is measuring perfectly at 6.5wks (6.6 today) and 8.5mm, hb was 134, a little down from last week the cow who scanned me though last week it was over estimated and this week she didn't bother looking for the flicker just waved the hb thingo over the whole baby, so it's not like she was concentrated on a particular area. Owphie is doing fantastic and growing right on track. Hcg is 4500 and prog is 75 I have been cut back on pessaries to once a day and am feeling like I'm gonna have a baby!!!!

The tech said that it shouldn't be a big deal and that once the baby moves up, the placenta will as well. I was just glad to have a reason for the spotting!
 
Congrats Steph and JustWaiting on your successful Scans!!

I wanted to add mine to the list. My first pregnancy ended at 7 1/2 weeks so today was really hard for me.

So I went and had a scan done just to ease my mind and help keep me calm.

Baby bizzy measures 7w3d and has a hb of 156!! I am finally feeling positive about this pregnancy.
 
Awww wow ladies soo much great news today! Congrats to all of u :) My new gyno would only book me for a scan on Feb.7th which is 11weeks I just counted!!! I may go private to calm my nerves earlier...I guess we'll see how it goes...my only happy thought was well...Feb.7th is my bday so maybe its a good omen?

Thanks for the hair dye advise...it was just highlights but I'm thinking I'm gonna skip it for now...I'm neurotic enough without one more thing to worry about! Lol
 
Hey ladies, quick update from me, welcome to other newbies and sorry havent had chance to catch up on all posts but hope everyone is well. Hopefully have some reassurance for others who were spotting etc- I had heavy brown spotting (TMI) and cramps last week so had scan on monday and everything was perfect, was measuring 6+6 which was bang on dates and heart was beating away!! Was so emotional as really had thought the worse.. can't believe it. Cramping all stopped, but still getting some brown spotting but trying to relax and think its normal!

Really hope you are all doing well xxxx

That's awesome news. I am so glad. Yay!!
 
GL MrsMoo.. I hope everything turns out just the way you want it.
 
:cry::cry::cry::cry::cry:
No evidence of pregnancy in uterus, no sac etc just "bits and pieces" that might be blood/cloots. Either partial mc, early pregnancy (but with no sac i know that's not it) or ectopic.....Had betas and for more on fri to see what's going on....Absolutely devastated.....
 
:nope: Oh MrsMoo I am soooo sorry to hear this news! I hope Friday gives you better news!
 
Aww mrsmoo I'm so so sorry, :hugs: :hugs: :hugs: I really hope it's not ectopic, it doesn't sound like it, it sounds more like an early miscarriage. If your betas go down rapidly your clear for an ectopic. We're all here for you x x x x x x x
