Thank you ladies! I am so relieved, the lesson went so well. I didn't even stall whilst driving around for 2 whole hours!! I thought after no driving for almost 12 years it'd be like starting from scratch but it wasn't. I'm actually in floods of tears now (blame it on the preggo hormones), I'm so relieved! Going to have one more to practice my parallel parking as our street is a nightmare to park on! Feeling good about conquering my fears!!
Mummamoo- you are right. Funnily enough I didn't notice my nausea!!
Sweety - good luck for your scan. Fx for you.

Good luck to the ladies with upcoming scans. I was a stress ball for mine, DH was completely unconcerned. Didn't help that my symptoms took a nose dive right before the scan. But in the end, all was good 
TTC - I found this info on radiopaedia.org:
Some suggest that if the beta-hCG level is >1800 mIU/ml (second international standard) a transabdominal ultrasound should be able to identify an intrauterine gestational sac, however, this value is debatable, and beta-hCG levels >2000 (or even >3000) without a visualized intrauterine gestational sac does not rule out an intrauterine pregnancy.
Clear blue easy tops out at ~2000 mIU/ml for 2-3 weeks. Hope that helps, there's so much speculation with pregnancy, that I find facts reassuring

Countrymomma, so sorry to hear that. Sending good thoughts for next cycle.

Have my appointment today. Really hoping I can convince them to do a scan. Only problem is dh isn't coming with me so he will miss it 
I told him if they do I'll bring home pictures and that at this stage there really isn't much to see. I'm terrified to be told I miscarried when I had a little bleeding and the positive tests must have been false or left over. So scared. But hopefully after today I will have answers one way or another. If it's good results we will be telling my inlaws this weekend (my parents already know).

Good luck Gina- what time is it at?
I am shattered today, I could go to bed. No chance of that as I have the little 2 at home. My 4 year old seems to know I'm not feeling great and has been nothing but a terror all week 😩

Not sure where you are as its 13.10 in the uk, but sounds like it's not too long a wait for you- nothing worse than late afternoon appts! Fingers crossed they do the scan
10 weeks today and feeling great. Starting to relax a little. I realized that with my last pregnancy at 9 weeks I was much more settled into the pregnancy so I'm trying to just "be" pregnant and not worry so much. NT scan is in less than 2 weeks, and they'll probably do the Materniti21 tests.

Ugh I'm sorry ttc! You really could just be too early. Seems odd that they wouldn't see anything when your spotting/cramping hasn't been that intense. Hopefully it eases up, your numbers come back in range, and they see something on a scan again in a week or so! *hugs*
Country I'm sorry to hear the news. How frustrating! Keeping you in my thoughts and fx you get many more BFPs soon!
Thinking of you today Gina! Hope all goes well tomorrow
Was anyone else nervous going into their first scan? I'm so excited, but also a ball of nerves. Just 1.5 days to go!
My scan is on saturday at 11.30. I'm nervous and excited at the same time. Hoping if all goes well I can start to relax x
...and just got my blood test levels back- I knew my thyroid was acting different. I have had high TSH levels (subclinical hypothyroidism) and struggled to keep my TSH around 2 for the longest time with medication. Well, it is at 1 now, which means this pregnancy has kicked my thyroid up a notch, which explains my higher HCG levels (Thyroid hormones can mimic HCG). That and the fact that I was eating like I was back in high school and hadn't gained a pound, also fits. This is me with a sigh of relief.

Ah in vivo and sweety - we're scan triplets! Hoping there's strength in numbers and we all come back with good news.You'll probably both be done before me since I'm out in CA and behind most of the rest of the world time-wise. Sarah - You're not far behind. Will be thinking of you! Looking forward to news of so many beautiful scans 
Country- I am very sorry. Thoughts are with you.
MMoo- that is so sweet! Glad you have a few things you are able to eat and hope your nausea settles down going into 11 wks.
Leson- totally normal to be nervous before the first scan. It is so exciting but nerve wracking at same time.
I had my 9 week and was shocked to see a baby with a strong heartbeat! Also shocked when they told me the SCH is gone - must have resolved on its own. Maybe the 3 week of bed rest for the hg helped.
Xana- great they figured that out with the thyroid. Glad you're feeling great at 10 weeks!
Still very cautious though. The sickness is so bad I probably have to go back to hospital tomorrow. Happy to share the good scan news and looking forward to everyone's appt. updates.

Hopie- Glad to hear you are chugging along and that the SCH cleared up. One less thing to worry you. I think about you every day and hope you're doing better. Hoping when it comes the end of 1st trimester brings you some relief.
