Hi Ladies,

may I join you?

I am pregnant after a loss in December and although I am scared I am so happy...
As I didn't have AF in between I still do not have a definite EDD, my ob says it should be around mid Setember.

First U/S is scheduled for the 18th February, and I will be around 11 weeks then.

Congratulations to all of you!!

 

[mwaah]

Yours is just before mine Dan I'm super nervous as well

Good luck, will be thinking of you xxx

Sorry for your loss. Congrats on your new pregnancy xxxx

Congrats, mwaah! Such a well developed looking bean you have there!

I just came back from my first scan. My bean looks like a smudge. But I am thrilled that my smudge has a nice, strong heartbeat.

I haven't really introduced myself yet. So hi, I'm LuckyW. I'm 42. I have been super nervous about this pregnancy because of a mmc last April. I don't have any cubs, and my eggs are only getting older, so I'm feeling like this is my last real shot at parenthood.

Today was apparently the last appointment with my RE. It was a bit odd, because I've seen her sooo many times over the past year. Maybe it was also a bit weird because we actually got our bfp on a break cycle, when she wasn't monitoring me and I wasn't shooting myself up with crazy aggressive fertility drugs. And last year, she had me come back week after week around this time.

But today, she just referred me back to my regular ob/gyn.

Anyway, you guys seem like a great group, and it really is worth something to chat with others who've experienced loss as well, and previous births!

Well ladies I cried!!! I was too scared to look at the screen and when I did she told me it was just perfect!!

He is measuring 8 weeks and 3 days and had a lovely strong heartbeat.
I know I'm not out of the woods yet but feel a whole letter better especially as still zero symptoms.

Thats so fab PinkEmily you found a heartbeat yourself

Dancareoi, I'm so excited for you and you have symptoms, thats more reassuring for you.

Welcome to the new mummy to be, sorry forgot your username as have baby brain yippeeeeee xxxx

I'm sorry to hear this but hang in there. Its still so early to see a HB xxx

 

[dancareoi]

Hi all and welcome newbies!

Well, so far so good, thank goodness.

I saw HB myself before she confirmed it so that was a relief! She says I am 7+6 I thought at most I was 7 + 4 but that is fine.

Had to have some blood taken and be shown how to inject the clexane into my tummy once day, it wasn't actually too bad.

So now I inject clexane once a day, test my blood sugars 4 times a day and insert progesterone twice a day, no time for anything else.

She said it looked like a little butter bean!

She said I could go back when I wanted, some do weekly, otherwise 2 weekly and others monthly. We are actually going again next Friday because the specialist I am under will be there.

I can relax a little for now, but will be worried again next week!

 

[tekkitten]

Thats great news! So happy for you

 

[dancareoi]

Thats great news! So happy for you

What time is yours, I know you are a little behind us!

 

[Chimpette]

Woohoo fantastic news!!!!!

I've got another scan next Friday as well... also booked my 12 week scan today as had booking appointment with midwife and it's on the 25th Feb. So really one 2 weeks between... thank goodness for that!

 

[mwaah]

Thats fab news Dancareoi and good luck with all your meds...eeek

I dont think they will scan me on the NHS weekly or fortnightly but happy for you and Chimp.

Well I tried to book in with the midwife but she is fully booked for February...ooops. The Dr's reception gave me her mobile number but she is on holiday until next week. Not really bothered about seeing her but need to get my 12 week scan sorted lol xxxx

 

[tekkitten]

Thats great news! So happy for you

What time is yours, I know you are a little behind us!

It's in two and a half hours :S

 

[dancareoi]

It's in two and a half hours :S

That's about 8.40 our time, keeping everything crossed for you

Chimp and mwahh, thanks. I can relax a little tonight now, but I was fine at this point last time so I still have a long way to go before I can really properly relax! She called it a little butter bean, I like that!

They took some blood today which is to do with the clexane, something to do with renal function, I need to call hosp tomorrow to get results.

I am at diabetic clinic at hosp on Monday, I have another scan next week and midwife coming next Friday as well.

My 12 week scan came through, but as that is based on LMP I need t change it as I would only be 11 + 2 and that's not far enough for the nuchal.

Just been to docs to hand in prescription for all the diabetic stuff I need and to get more progesterone.

It's like a chemist in our house.

By the way folks, my name us Lisa

I feel a little better after my scan but know the anxiety will creep in before next weeks. I still can't believe I have a jelly bean in there and you have a butter bean Lisa My name is Liss.

You must have a daily planner and a very full diary!! I dont know when I have to see the diabetic clinic yet as not booked in. I dont mind telling you I'm not looking forward to checking bloods and injecting insulin again grrrr.

I told my DS i have a baby in my tummy and he cried and said he wanted the baby now, September is going to be a lifetime away for him. Hopefully it will arrive before his birthday on the 8th so we can make an extra big fuss of him xxxx

Hi Liss, is this short for elisabeth, I think I saw it on your scan pictures.

Are you full diabetic or just gestational? In my first I was gestational and on insulin from 36 weeks, but have never been on it again as I have managed to diet control it!

Although my readings the last few days have been under what they should be, the one first thing in the morning is a little high! I'll see wha happens when I go on Monday.

We have not told our DC anything yet. We told them I was Pg before I had my loss in jan last year, as I thought I was 14 weeks when we told them. They were so excited, telling them the baby had died was the hardest thing we have ever had to do. Last June my son had to write something about the worst thing he had experienced, he wrote the loss of a sibling, it broke my heart. We don't want to put them through that again. So when I was pg in sept we didn't tell them, so they never knew we lost another.

We won't be saying a word yet. My youngest is 2 so he is a little too young to understand what's going on anyway.

I won't be happy until I get past 14 weeks, so a long time to go yet!

Wonder what the odds are of your jelly bean arriving on your DS birthday?
