~* September Sparkles 2018 *~

I'm 7 weeks today! I'm getting more and more positive but still trying to stay realistic. My first scan is in 2 days!! Ughhhhhh... Do you automatically hear the heartbeat when they do a vaginal scan? Or is there something they have to do? I'm glad everyone is doing well and I hope that anyone who is having problems that they clear up 💙

My last day of work is also Tuesday... I put in my two week notice... Scary!!! But dh is beyond supportive so I'm excited to start my new job as a stay at home furmom- soon to be mommy :)

Good luck for your scan!

I dont know about other places but here in Australia you dont hear the heartbeat at early scans but you can clearly see it flickering away! I had my first scan at what should have been 6 wks 6 days but got dated at 6wks from it (abdo scan only) and i saw the hb. When i had another scan at 9 wks 4 days cause of bleeding they brought it forward again to my LMP date and said before 9 weeks only vaginal scans can date correctly. But i saw the heartbeat both times so you should definitley see yours!
 
Woke at 4 am this morning with some quite obvious cramping.. gone to work but not feeling 100% headaches and crampy still. Hoping all is ok as no bleeding with it! I am 11 weeks today and I have my gp appt this arvo so i am gonna ask her about the cramping.
 
Hi guys, sorry I haven't been as active as I wanted to be, but I have seriously been so sick. And it's not the morning sickness if you can believe that. I picked up the flu or something icky, and I just feel like total poop. DH want me to go see the Doctor, but first I want to see if I can't cure myself with honey and ginger.

Hope you all are doing better than me :hugs:
 
Good luck today ellie, and tomorrow for you boog. :)

Hope your ok Lightning & your better soon Mickels!

My sickness has really picked up. Yesterday I was sick in the morning, then again whilst in the car in the evening then again when I got home. I just woke up with an empty stomach and couldn’t stop retching I must of teared my throat cos I spat out bits of blood :( if this carries on through today I’m gonna call the doctor cos I’ve kept no food or fluids down for a good few hours now.. :(
Last time I was this I ended up having blighted ovum so I’m really panicking right now, probably unrelated but I can’t help to worry.
 
Feel better, Mickels and amytrisha!

Lightning hope your appointment went well. Boog I have an appointment tomorrow too. Good luck and let us know how it goes.

I used to have a Doppler, then I lent it to someone and I haven't gotten it back. I am not on great terms with that person anymore (their problem, not mine) and I'm not sure I want to bother reaching out to ask for it back. Blah
 
Feel better everyone! I’m in the same boat as Mickels, I’m sick with something flu-like. I’m on meds as recommended by the doctor, but I still feel terrible. I’m worried that all the violent coughing and the meds are not good for the baby. I have another scan in a week from tomorrow, so I’m anxious to know if all is well.

Good luck to those with upcoming appointments!
 
I hope everyone starts to feel better!

Good luck to those with appt. and scans.

I feel ok most of the day. My nausea usually hits in the evening then I don't want to eat/smell/look at food. I haven't actually gotten sick yet so I'm happy about that. Other than that I'm just tired and moody. My poor husband. lol
 
I had a great scan today. Baby is measuring 5 days ahead of lmp so I’m now 9+2. Haematoma has shrunk and looks to be resolving. It was a really positive scan and I feel happy to just enjoy my pregnancy now. Seems incredible after the extent of the bleeding 17 days ago.

Next scan in 9 days with my IVF clinic. Can’t wait!!!
I’m booking in with midwife tonight. It’s really real!
 
Ellie- I'm happy to hear things went well at your scan! Yay! :)
 
Yay ellie! That is awesome!

Sorry to hear some of you are not feeling too good, I "think" I am starting to come out of it, didnt feel as bad yesterday as I have been!

I meet my midwife today, hoping that goes well, really hoping she tries to find the heartbeat - would be great reassurance! 1 week till scan day!
 
Wow, I really hope everyone bounces back from their sickness. And all the ladies with nausea I pray it ends like mine has! I am dealing ok with the headaches and starting to really show a bump! It’s kind of crazy.

On a happier note we went public with the announcement! Over 1k people have watched our video on FB!! So many people surprised and excited for us- it feels wonderful!

Apt on Wednesday and should be scheduling our anatomy scan then! I’m anxious to see and hear how our little pumpkin is doing!
 
I had my ultrasound this morning and nothing had changed, Im supposed to be 8 weeks but my sac is still measuring at 5 weeks and with nothing in it. So, my doctor is positive that it's a blighted ovum. I'm to stop taking progesterone and hopefully I'll start miscarrying in the next 2 days to 2 weeks. I'm obviously just devastated especially considering I just had a miscarriage in December. I'm mostly just concerned about properly miscarrying at this point. A D & C is not something I can afford or want to go through again right now.

So, obviously, I wont be in this thread anymore and moving back to TTC but I wish all you ladies the best
 
Had quite a day, my son is sick at the moment and had to take him to ed as oxygen levels were a bit low. Whilst there they did a blood test and I completely passed out on the nurse, never done that before and blood never been an issue for me. They made me go to adults ed and get checked. Apparently was a bit dehydrated, it’s so hot here at the moment but I feel so nauseated it’s hard to force drink in. Am fine now after some iv fluids. Was a bit scary though. Worst part - they wouldn’t do a scan or anything
