    Hi ladies, do you mind if I join you? I got my BFP yesterday :D

    Tinks, I did the pregnancy tracker on the Fertility Friend website and it says I'm 4+1 today. I'm a member there, so not sure if you need to join to use it, but I think you can have a basic membership without paying.

    I've been feeling quite crampy since yesterday. It's fairly constant, and annoying rather than painful. I don't remember this from the first time I was pregnant, but hoping it's just implantation or things starting to stretch.

    Good luck with your scan 2b. Wow, 12 weeks seems sooooo far away at the moment :o

    Just popping in to wish you best of luck for you scan today 2b - hope all goes well and they're not too late with the appointment (top tip - don't drink until you have a full bladder at home, drink some, and take a water bottle with you, as if they're as late as my hospital were and always seem to be, you'll be in agony by the time you get in there).
    Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

    Thanks all - you lovely ladies and gent! :D xx

    Sexymouse, I dont think I completely understand. Don't drink any more until I have a full bladder at home?

    I just called the hospital to check on the full bladder situation, but she said I didn't need to - and now I don't believe her, as it seems unusual?!

    2b what sexymouse means is don't drink till your bladder is full at home as by the time your scan comes around you will be ready to wee yourself, just have a small drink at home and then take a drink with you to drink on the way to the scan and whilst your at the hospital.

    IMO I would go with a full bladder, they can always ask you to go for a wee if it is too full.
    You never know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.

    I haven't need to at any of mine :) I have had 5 scans...but its always best to go with one and then have a quick wee at the hospital if you need to!

    I didn't have a full bladder at my 12 week scan 2b and all was fine. The 20 wk one you definitely don't need to have a full bladder.
