    thanks everyone. yeh my scan at the fertility clinic should make me 7wks 6 days. But I'm confused because they seem to date me about 3 days further than my GP did, when I told her the date of my LMP.

    My husband says stop worrying, what will be will be. I know I can't change anything, and worrying won't help or get me anywhere, I just can't bear the thought of losing this one as well.

    the waiting game is hard. I am tempted to ask for a scan now, but I know finding a heartbeat today doesn't guarantee it will be there tomorrow.

    oh incomplete I can understand your worrying esp when you've lost a baby in the past (sending hugs)

    with my first 2 DD's (after IUI's) I was terribly sick vomitted everyday like clockwork and incredibly sore bb's too!

    With this baby I have often woken up completely upset thinking I should be feeling the same but I've had very minor and intermittent ms (here some days not others and no vomitting) my bb's are not sore at all! I'm 18 weeks now.

    I have some friends too who don't have barely any symptoms and everything is fine!

    All the best!

    THere's often a difference in EDDs based on LMP, transfer date/O date (depending on type of AC) or early scan. Don't worry about it.

    I had blood tests to check that my HCG levels were still increasing- maybe you could ask for this if you couldn't get in for an ultrasound or didn't want to have one at this stage.

    Incomplete It sounds like you're having a difficult time.

    Requesting a scan sounds like a good idea, it would put your mind at ease certainly in the interim.

    The first trimester can certainly be stressful, especially after previous miscarriages and LTTTC.

    For what it's worth, my breast tenderness went away at around 9 weeks and never returned. And the nausea came and went too and all turned out well.

    Big hugs. I hardly had any symptoms with DS, in fact so few symptoms that most people had no idea I was pregnant (even my Mum) and DH and I kept the pregnancy a secret until we got to 12 weeks and we were safely in the second tri. It was stressful especially as I didn't "feel" pregnant but everything was ok and he is now a very active 2 yrs and 3 mths old. Hope everything is ok for you, its so hard not to stress. Set yourself small goals each week to get you through e first tri. Plan lots of outings to keep your mind on other things too. Good luck.
