Thanks Neen! Here's hoping I still see a hb Thursday. I think then I will finally get excited.

 

[Beadette]

Not been able to find HB since the day we first got doppler - last Wednesday

Friday can't come soon enough .. i need this stress to be over.

Right, up until 13+6 I only managed to find it 3 or 4 times. It was far too difficult and I could just catch it by chance sometimes.

The last few days I have found it every day. My friend was told that at 18 weeks the heart is the size of your little finger nail so what size must it be now? Teeny.

Don't sweat it. Can you hear movement?

 

[mislaww]

Deb, hon, you're still so early for the doppler! Don't worry, and try not to use it so much! Little badger is fine. As my dh says, lo probably thinks hiding from the doppler is a game.

Petipas - ouch! Hugs to all the bruised ladies. Not too tight a hug, mind you!

Amos! Happy dancing for you!

Welcome croydon and ohaimommy! We're nearing the very end os spring 2011! Croydon, try not to worry about those cramps if you can. We've all had cramps.

Speaking of which, I've started to have a new kind of cramp - just comparing notes on this. When I get up from bed too quickly, my abs ache and I get a light cramp. Anyone had this?

Tonight we're going out for ethiopian food with friends and sharing the news. Can't decide which I'm more excited about - I love me my ethiopian food!!!

 

[Vickieh1981]

Oooh I am jealous. I have a terrible craving for Ethiopian. I could just eat some special tibbs and injera now. HUNGRY!!!!!

Feeling very pesemistic about scan tomorrow ladies just have a feeling something is wrong

 

[mislaww]

Rebecca! I know how you feel but please try not to stress! Sending hugs your way.

Feeling very pesemistic about scan tomorrow ladies just have a feeling something is wrong

I have felt that way before every single scan even the last one where I had just heard the heartbeat on the doppler.

It's a horrible side effect of a missed miscarriage - no blood doesn't mean things are okay. You never get over that and scans are never the same.

Exactly hun - I don't think I can trust any instinct anymore because I think the fear overwhelms any intuition I may have xxxx

 

[prgirl_cesca]

Well girls i've started bleeding. Red earlier on but only for one wipe and now its tailed off to a browny colour. Not gushing or anything, but it hasn't whenever i've miscarried before.

EPU can't fit me in until Tuesday so i've got an agonising wait.

I can't believe this is happening again

Aw hun,

I'm sorry you have this worry. I know you are frightened it is happening again but just look at all the other girls who have had bleeding and spotting in their early pregnancies. I pray that all is well hun!

How far are you now? xxxx

 

[prgirl_cesca]

7+3 today, so 7+5 at the scan.

 

[debgreasby]

Will keep everything crossed for you hunni xxx

 

[mislaww]

Pr girl - sorry you're going through this. It's so awful you have to wait! Try not to stress. So many of us have experienced spotting and our lo's are fine... Fingers crossed for you.

 

[Mummy2Angel.]

Oh pr girl , will keep you in my thoughts, try and just relax and not to worry to much, look at the other ladies such as amy, who bleed heavily and who have strong beans so keep positive

 

[petitpas]

Pr-girl, so sorry you are going through such a scary time - I am rooting for you and your little beanie fxfxfxfxfxfxfxfx

Amy, we're scanning the same day.....

Mummy, hope everything goes well for you tomorrow

Everyone - your sympathy is very sweet, but the bruise does not hurt AT ALL! I can even poke it without feeling anything. It was my fault anyway for injecting myself in exactly the spot I knew I shouldn't (because it stings a little and bleeds)

 

[Tulip]

Cesca, you must be so scared. But it doesn't mean it's over. The strength of some of these babies has astounded me. Only one wipe gives me great hope xxx

Rebecca, we fully expect you to be a woman on the edge the day before a scan - we all do it! As Vickie has said before, we call it intuition - but it is a mixture of paranoia and self-preservation. We have to mentally prepare for bad news, just in case. But we also need to reserve some belief that all is well, for the sake of our LOs. You are flying through and I'm sure it'll be fine tomorrow

Deb - Perfectly normal not to find hb regularly yet. I'll send the Neen round to lick yer face and make you smile if you're not careful

Another busy scan week, ladies.
Monday - Rebecca.
Tuesday - Annie, Hayley, Meredith, Jenny & Cesca (emergency).
Edit Thursday - Pip & Amy.
Friday - Deb & Kayleigh.

Not a Spring Baby, but.... big shout out for Jox, she's having Beanie by c/s tomorrow at 34+3. Watch over your little brother for us Kasper

Big loves all round and extra for those who need it tonight xxxxx

 

[Tulip]

Pip! This Thursday? You lot are sooooo not notifying me of scans! Hang on, lemme edit ^^^

 

[Mummy2Angel.]

Thanks nic for all you do

Thanks ladies trying to stay positive .... i suppose i dont have anything to believe that something is wrong...so keeping my FX'ed

Does anyone else think time is flying by? Im suprised at how fast time is going, the last time i looked i was 6 weeks, now im approaching 9 this week, and one minutes i looked at all your tickers and they were at 7/8 weeks and now yours all 11/12 its great x

 

[Tulip]
