Pregnancy after Long Term TTC - June 2008

[Nixon]

Hello everyone,

I received my brilliant news on Sunday 31st that I was pregnant.

Is it too soon to be booked in with an Ob and at the hospital that I want to have the baby in? My GP said to go for it, but I'm a bit nervous that I am going to Jinx it.

Nixon, I booked in to see my OB as soon as I could. I was really nervous as I couldn't face cancelling the appointments after my first miscarriage and had to get DH to do it. But I had a scan at just past 6 weeks with my FS, and then a little over two weeks later I was in seeing my OB having another scan. I'm much happier seeing them early!

Thanks BW. I will be having a 7 week scan around the week of Sept 22 - 26.

I have booked an Ob, but i was also worried that I don't know him and the receptionist said he wouldn't normally see me until week 10 and I was worried that by then it would be too late to change.

Nic my Ob saw me at 8 weeks and I will see him again at 10 make sure you feel comfortable sweet

Well done and

I've read some really good things about him and have posted a new thread to see if I can find out more. My GP referred us to Dr. Lok at SIVF and I couldn't have been more grateful for that, so there is a history of good choices from my GP and that makes it a bit easier.

I'm also going for a tour of north shore private next week, so I'm hoping that will ease some nerves as well.

Hope you are going well TL - we won't be too far apart with our deliveries... I'm only 4 weeks and 2 days. Early days yet, but I'm keeping a positive outlook and I am going to enjoy every second of this pregnancy no matter what.

Good luck with everything.

Congratulations Nixon!! I booked in early as well. I've done the hospital tour, booked in with my GP/OB and I see him in 2 weeks. I was really nervous about doing it all so early as well, but at the same time, I didn't want to miss out on the model of care at this particular hospital that I wanted.

I haven't been too well overnight. Woke up at about 1am with awful tummy pains like I needed to vomit. Finally got back to sleep at about 5, so I'm having a day off today to try and get some rest. I'm exhausted. I'm about to make an appt with my GP as well to see if he will send me for another scan, and see if he makes anything of the pains I've been getting. Oh, and I little bit of spotting last night which completely freaked me out but there has been nothing since.

Good luck Megan. i hope everything is ok.
