Amen to the 1st tri milestone. And then the milestone's just keep on keeping on until birth!
Kaybee, Possum & Aimee - the 3 of us have a lot of losses between us. Makes you so paranoid with every little symptom or non symptom. I think the fear and despair we feel at times is linked to what the hormones are doing to us as well. These weeks and scans before the 1st tri are so nerve racking. And it's like a rollercoaster ride. I have a feeling we will all be good and get through FINALLY!
I'm not sure what's wrong with my ticker, but I am 9 weeks and 2 days. Due 27th August - currently. I do know that date can change as you go along.
I have stopped taking my temp as it's all over the place, yet the scans all look great so far. My next one is at 10.5 weeks next Wed. Hoping and praying for that.
Is everyone looking for an OB at this stage already? My IVF Dr told me to find one and book. I've had 4 miscarriages - 2 last year, and I feel like I don't want to rush things in case I taint my chances. Sounds stupid doesn't it? Last year I was looking up prams, names etc getting all excited and invested in the pregnancies only to find the heartbeat stop and then having D&C's. It made my heartache worse.
When should you see an OB for the 1st time? Also when is the nuchal fold done?
As I'm 38 and have worked for a Disabled Kids charity, I am seriously considering doing an Amnio. I've also had a close girlfriend do an Amnio and find a devastating result which led to her terminating. It was just awful for her to go through. Has anyone in here done an Amnio?
Hope your weeks have started off well lovely ladies. The sun is shining on the Gold Coast today
