Glam - we'll let you off, you must be emotional not having to go back to your old job. Ever. Enjoy maternity leave!!!

I have 47 more work days to go (10 weeks less a few days annual leave)

Yeah Glam that's awful, Kindof, just slap her back!! Just kidding :D:D

I worry a lot if everything is ok! It's definitely natural. I have to say it's got a little better since getting to 12 weeks and also after seeing the scan but the day of the scan I was a wreck worrying! I suppose there would be something wrong if you were carrying round your LO inside you all the time and never worried about it!

I can't imagine how worrying it must be on their first day at school or first day playing out on their own etc etc!!!! Maybe we should all just accept the worrying will be with us for a very long time!! My mum says she still worries about me, bless her!

Ohh gosh sorry glam i forgot to say - all the best for / glad you are having a nice last day:D

HI All

Quick update

Had a small bleed on Wednesday night, rang birthing centre who couldn't see me until Friday, the bleeding stopped Wednesday night, started again Thursday afternoon but wasn't a major bleed just a slight bit and with no pain at all.

Anyway went this morning for a scan expecting to see an 11 week pregnancy, first ultrasound showed nothing but an empty uterus and my face was exactly >>> :eek::eek::eek: so was partners and trying to hide my face form my 5 year old. The midwife said to do a vaginal scan so little one and boyfriend waited outside. Was on verge of tears at this point.

Baby was found a few seconds later, safe and well. Although must be only newly pregnant because instead of the 11 weeks I thought I was and last period date went from - I must of caught just before my next period was due and I am in fact 5-6 weeks. They examined baby and took measurements - baby is 6mm and the heart is nice and clear and beating strongly. (which makes me 6 weeks I think)

They saw the yolk and saw another cluster in the uterus with the baby which measures 5.4mm but they couldn't detect a heartbeat but they have called me back in another 2 weeks as they said it might just be it is developing slightly slower than the other one or it was very weak that it couldnt be detected as they couldn't get a clear picture to see what it was exactly. So you'll al have to watch this space for now.

I have to go back on the 28th August for another check up scan and they are going to look at the second cluster to see if it is an embryo as it was deemed 'too early' to tell.

It's so cool - just deleted 7,500 emails from my deleted items

Think I need a lorry to take all my stuff home though!

Did you see Sami linked you to a sling meet in response to your question?

I am going to one on Monday (same one as Sami), going to take my sling I have but if it turns out that people don't think it's that good. I've got time to check out some others and then get one ready for baby.

I feel like a right biatch now! Sorry kindof!

sammy - how scary! Sending you twice the amount of 'sticky bean' vibes and hoping everything goes well at your next scan.
Don't forget to keep us up to date so we don't worry about you!

Hi Sammy! I had a similar experience went I went for first early scan after bleeding whcih I thought I was about 12 weeks at. Couldn't find anything and I could see OH's face as he was looking at the screen and it was so sad. Then had internal scan and saw the pregnancy sac, yolk and 2mm baby!!!! I was so relieved!!

Hope everything goes ok for you from now on! Make sure you keep us updated!!!

Nicki

Glad bean was safe and well Sammy_kaye. Must have been very stressful for you, especially with DS there too. I had a mmc with my first pregnancy which wasn't picked up until 17 weeks and I remember how devastating it was when they scanned and gave me the bad news, so I can understand how you were feeling.

How would you feel about twins though! That would be a real shocker!!

Sarah_Joanne

Right, off to go get my chair now and will probably catch up late tonight on as off to sister and BIL's tonight for dinner.

Hope you enjoy the last little bit at work Glam and don't get too upset when you have to walk out the door with all your things.

Hope everyone has a lovely evening x

Sammy - big big fingers crossed for the 28th for you.
