So I just want to know we have got past the tricky 6-week point this time and that all is well. I had no idea last time that the baby had died and I'd been carrying it around for a month when it wasn't alive, and I don;t think I could deal with that again.
We are paying for the scan as they won;t scan you on the NHS unless you are bleeding.

That is so scary that baby can die without an symptoms. Were you still feeling sick, sore boobs etc. Sorry to ask questions, please dont feel like you have to answer if it is too much to talk about it I just didn't know that could happen. Hope your scan shows a happy healthy baby x0 -
Candlewax - so sorry for your loss.
Have actually managed to not be sick this morning, so I'm having a really good day! Hope everone else is having a good day.
Becc4 - you'll be stunned at how generous people are, both in terms of gifts and hand me downs, when the baby comes so you might not need to buy as much as you think.

Also, has anyone thought about a home birth? I've kind of being mulling it over although I'm not sure why! I like the idea of being at home and a water birth. Any articles I read seem to have really polarized opinions e.g. having a home birth is tantamount to child abuse or alternatively it's a really amazing experience.
I would never have considered my first birth happening anywhere but in hospital but I'm feeling, I don't know, more willing to consider a home birth this time round.
What are peoples thoughts?

Sorry to hear of your recent mc skintchick. I too had a missed miscarriage and didn't find out until i went for my scan, devestated wasn't the word. The baby had stopped growing at 6 weeks and by 12 weeks i still hadn't miscarried naturally. I had to have a D&C. That was before my last DS, with him the scanned me early but this time they wouldn't.
Good luck. When did you say the scan was?0 -

Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone else gets sort of tugging sensations at the bottom of their bellies - it's not painful, just a weird feeling. It isn't even a complaint - I just wondered if I was normal? lol. (I doubt it though). Feeling good this week - have been soooooo shattered up until now, this completely overwhelming need to be asleep but then actually getting to sleep is a problem, had a few good nights sleep and I feel like a different person. I am 9 + 4, scan is two weeks on Thursday and I simply cannot wait.
Also - I am a very loud, violent sneezer - my belly does not like it, and it hurts like hell if I get caught off guard and sneeze and am not holding myself firmly - does anyone else get this too?

Emsbet - this is probably a stupid question, but how do they change your dates without a scan - I havn't had my scan yet - but will be gutted if they put my dates back lol. I had a very regular as clockwork cycle - 28 days, as was ttc for 4 years, so knew every movement of my cycle down to the day I ovulated - could they change my date? This pregnancy game can be very confusing, glad Sir Alex is ok, DH likes your bumps name, as we too are big fans!! x

Hi snoopytweety, I'm exactly the same as you when sneezing and coughing!! If i sneeze or cough hard my belly, right at the bottom really hurts for a moment or two, almost like my stomach muscles have gone REALLY weak! I too have to hold my stomach before i think bout sneezing to prevent what feeling like my muscles are going to give!! Been worring about if for a couple of weeks but I'm kinda glad i'm not the only one having that issue!!
Gops xx
ETA: glad your appt went well emsbet. Bit of a pain being put back again, but good news sir alex is ok xxSealed Pot Challenge Member #8810
