PAL - February 2013 rainbow babies

Yay Debzie! (I wanna be a peaaccchhhh too!) :flower:

Good luck on your scan tomorrow Pebbles!
 
Omg just found brown blood at 11+4. I'm really scared after having had slight niggles in lower abdomen. Rang midwife and she said that to contact my gp if it turns red and is more than a tsp but I'm petrified now... My scan isn't for another week and I'm absolutely freaking out. Has anyone else had similar and everything been ok?

Hi NT, I bled earlier in this preg and it turned out to be fine, so I really hope this is nothing. Is it worth calling your GP regardless and trying to get an earlier scan so you don't have to wait a week while you're so worried?

Thinking of you xxx
 
Less than 24 hours til my scan. FREAKING OUT! I just want it over with! I can't help but stress out- symptoms have been barely there for the last 2 weeks. Please keep me in your thoughts ladies xxx

Me too Lily- 12 week scan tomorrow, am really scared there'll be no heartbeat. I saw it at 6 weeks but like you I feel like my symptoms have decreased recently. I KNOW this is normal from 10 weeks but I can't shake the feeling that something is wrong....

It's kind of reassuring to have a scan buddy who's going through the same emotions! Let me know how you go xxx
 
Hmmm. So, I just broke out my doppler for my run-of-the-mill listen and I found the h/b pretty quickly (which is rare lately) and I decided to bask in the beat for a minute (Usually I hear a few seconds and put it away). So I'm listening and then it sounds like 2 heartbeats :saywhat:
I tried to duplicate it a few minutes later but couldn't.
Anybody with a doppler ever have an echo or something where the h/b sounds weird? Wouldn't a doc doing a pelvic exam at almost 12 weeks find a uterus too large for dates?
 
Thanks ladies, I spoke to midwife, she said that with it being old blood that I should try not to worry, that she highly suspects its nothing as bad sign are usually red blood. She thinks it's possible as I have a really bad cold and have been sneezing violently that maybe I've just dislodged something old, or that possibly I'm due a period and the body is trying something that won't happen, she said its very common. I won't go to GP unless something else happens, it's 12 hours later and I've had nothing more so hoping its nothing but after having had an mmc before I'm petrified for that scan now, the likelihood is I wouldn't get an earlier one than next Tuesday anyway. X
 
Just got back from my scan & everything is perfect :) I'll post a pic later when I get a chance.

NT glad you've had no more blood xxx
 
Here's a pic from my scan :)

NT glad ur bleedings stopped all the best for next tuesday :-)

Lily glad ur scan went welll great piccy
 
NT - Glad things appear to have settled.

Lily - that's great news, congrats!!

Perpetual - i sometimes hear the baby's heartbeat and an echo - then the digi reading changes and it picks up my heart rate - so I'm guesssing the background on is mine, then baby moves and mine becomes more prominent. Maybe it's your in the background too..... Or a hidden twin!!!
 
beautiful scan picture Lily :) glad it went well for you!

hope there's no more scares for you NT!

my digi readings are weird, it'll say 120 when I can't even hear a h/b, stay there when I can hear a faint h/b, and only when it picks it up good does the reading go up to 178 or 167. It was a fast h/b like the baby's but fainter in the background and a beat off. I have been unable to duplicate the situaton...and I'm going to try not to think too much on it because if it was a second h/b then I'll start to get huge and they'll figure it out soon enough.
 
So I had a bit of a scare last night. I was cramping and having lower back pain for about an hour last night but was not spotting or bleeding. I feel fine now so I guess I should chalk it up to growing pains. Anyone else have cramping at 11 weeks?
 
NT glad you had some reasurrance form your midwife.

Lilly yeah congrats on the scan beautiful pic.

Blue eyes I had some major cramps starting at 10-11+6 I still get them now.

Today I have pain at the front of my hips like mini electric shocks and an achy feeling in my hips.
 
Are any of you having food adversions? I cant stand meat i used to love it and a meal wasnt a meal without meat, its started with chicken now its all meat just the thought of eating it mskes me feel ill. Im quite worried as i know proteins important. Oh i dont like curry anymore i was never a big fan but i liked korma but now i cant stand that same with chinese used to be my fav.... not no more. Whats your food aversions? If u hav any

All i want is chipshop chips with salt and viniger and gravy mmmmmmmmm
 
Hope I am really picky with food at the moment I dont really fancy eating anything I have no aversions at the moment. I love dinners, not so much the meat but veg and gravy. Had it monday and then again today (made by my MIL) she made mince and dumplings I just had the dumplings and veg with loads of gravy.

Yeah come to think of it chicken at the moment makes me feel ill and I used to eat it daily.
 
I'm with u on the chicken think, even looking at it makes me feel sick as a dog, used to eat it at least 3 times a week, now can't be in the same room, I've eaten a tea cake Pringles and some fruit pastilles today, only saving grace is fresh fruit juice...I'm off food of all kinds really!
