September Snugglers 2016

[MummaMoo]

Hello!

Scan day for me, it went really well, the sonographer was really lovely and said straight away there was one live baby in there and then said she would go quiet as the baby was in a perfect position so would get all the measurements done first. NT result was 1.9 so a good measurement, nasal bone present, and 59mm crown to rump. Measuring at 12weeks 3days so I'm officially due August 28th (I'm a snuggler in my heart though!) She got me to empty my bladder for the "photoshoot" - as usual I overfilled on the water!

Yay yay yay for good scans!!! Congrats ladies!!!

Sorry for those still with MS. Hopie I am so glad yours is easing!!

I don't really remember what my aversions/cravings were from my last, it was 6 years ago! But this time, I cannot cannot get enough fruit!! I love it. I have a hard time wanting savory things, but I am also not into candy or sweets like that. I am into the natural sweetness of fruits and veggies! MS is much better this week, 12 weeks tomorrow!!
Also made major headway with constipation!! Got some dried apricots and they are working wonders! I am so relieved

I can also JUSSSSTTT feel my uterus above my pubic bone as of last night!

How are all you lovelies doing today?

 

[Just1more2]

Oh mumma!!!! what a lovely little baby you have there !! Gorgeous scan. I am so happy for you!!

 

[MummaMoo]

Thank you! SOOOOOOO relieved! I was dogged with a feeling that something was wrong.
I reckon this will still be a September baby

Awww mumma- what lovely, clear pics! You're deff still a snuggler 😉

Ive had my booking in appt and ive come away more confused than ever. The mw has still booked me down as a twin pregnancy, and said it could still be twins 😕 I really don't know what to think any more. Just have to sit tight and wait for the 12 week scan.

Looks like I'm the only one skipping the NT scan! I just didn't want the added worry of something coming back abnormal even though it could be false. I don't know...

Lovely lovely scan mumma! Xx

This is the first pregnancy ive opted for the nt scan. It wouldn't change anything, but with so many losses I just need it doing for my own peace of mind.

It probably wouldn't change the outcome for us, but if something were to come back, we would be prepared for it, that's why we agreed to go ahead. Plus I love having my blood taken (I'm a challenge as my veins run deep and narrow)

 

[Mummy1506]

Congrats on the scan mumma!

Afm. Bright red bleeding today can't help but think the worse but epu want me to wait it out to see how heavy it gets before they see me! I don't understand why bleeding isn't good no matter how little there is!! 😢. My scan last week showed a healthy 9 week bean with lovely heartbeat.

Oh mummy so sorry to read that you're having such a worrying time. Did you actually go to the epu or just call? Surely if you turn up they won't send you away?? Big to you

Great scan mumma, congratulations!

 

[LoraLoo]

Oh mummy- I can't believe they just don't see you? That's awful. Id just say it's gotten heavier, you need to be seen!
Fingers crossed all is ok x

 

[Mummy1506]

Thank you. Haven't been seen just called up. It's pretty much stopped but it was pretty frightening think I may insist on going in. Especially as my last pregnancy ended in mc surely can't be good making me stress worrying
About it.

 

[Lallie81]

I would definitely just turn up. You need to know what's going on or you will be beside yourself for days/weeks x

 

[MummaMoo]

Mummy - yeah, insist on being seen, you NEED to know what's going on.

 

[mrsmax]

I agree with the others. Just say you are really scared and its got worse.

 

[Just1more2]

Campn - I have opted not to have NT scan too. I have no reason to worry and didn't have it with my son. I am young and low risk and my insurance will not cover it.

 

[mrs unicorn]

Mummamoo what a wonderful scan!! So glad all is well! And you are def a snuggler!

Mummy - I agree with the others, just turn up if you are still worried (I'm sure you are)

We are not having the NT scan/testing either. The fact that the first test isn't conclusive and the second can cause mc just makes it a no for us. I thought that most people would take that approach but I remember the mw saying that isn't the case, but not sure she was actually recommending it. It's a personal choice but I just think whatever will be will be.

 

[Mummy1506]

I'm so angry & upset! I called back & they said I can't self refer they won't see me until my doctor has sent the referral after begging the receptionist for me to see the doctor after surgery he called & said its a 9-5 service at epu so won't see me today anyway! He will call back in the morning & see how things are & may refer me then!

Hardly bleeding at all now but didn't tell them that I just can't believe they don't see it as urgent to be checked over.

 

[xanzaba]

Mummy- I agree, if it's stressing you, you should go find out. If it is a clot, they might put you on modified activity, which could really help. Keeping you in my thoughts
