Thanks Dory and Cassius. I'll be going to the hospital imaging for the scan. My OB doesn't see me till end of March. Actually last time what had happened was that I miscarried the day after I had the internal scan, so just one of those scary memories I guess. But I feel the need to know that everything is going well outweighs the fear...so I have decided to go with it.
Well, it's D-day tomorrow.....so fingers crossed for that and hoping for the best.
Thanks Cassius and Dory. Well I had the U/S and it had to be internal as we couldn't see much with the external one. I am 6 weeks today and we saw the heartbeat as well at 105bpm which the lady there said was good at this stage.
I am so over the moon at the moment. Now I guess I am just waiting for the dreaded 8weeks to get over to feel safe. We have decided not to tell anyone till the first trimester ends.
Thank You God!! For the time being, we are trying to be "cautiously" happy.
I know its hard, but instead of cautiously happy, just go all out and be happy. You have a bub! Relish this preg, in this moment. It is a blessing, as you know. If you can try not to let fear hobble you. I know its hard, I seem just to be having a positive day, where I can feel the happiness and not the fear, and it's wonderful.
I have passed one vodoo date and have a few still to come, but whilst I know I will be anxious, I know I will also be anxious until I am holding a bubs who has made it. I don't want to look back and think that if that happens, this pg was just misery for me, waiting for something unhappy to happen?
Right now I am truly blessed and I want to give bubs as much love as I can. It might just be me and my eccentric coping style, but it's mostly working for me. If it could work for you, it would be another blessing.
Thanks Dory. I don't think you are eccentric in your beliefs, instead I would love to have your thinking too. I can see that you have gone through so much and it's commendable that you have such positive attitude. I wish with all my heart that this time your dreams come true in the best possible way.
I have started having MS and have literally been bedridden for last couple of days due to extreme tiredness....but it all feels good.
GSB - I am sooooo happy for you. I am sorry tht you are tired, but that's a good sign and evern better that you are taking it easy. But i reckon you don't have much a of a choice? That early pg tiredness is pretty compelling and overwhelming.
Summer24 - good luck with your pg. Good to hear that things are going well after a bumpy start. I agree stress doesn't help.
AFM - well a sort of milestone reached for me today. 12 weeks, only 28 to go! Not really a significant date for me in my journey, but statistically important. It's good to have reached it anyway. I have had a mild bout of gastro this week and am feeling better again. Phew! Not nice, even though I wasn't that sick. I would way prefer the type of M/S I get than gastro. At least I still have an appetite with M/S!
GSB - how are you doing? Are you still bedridden? Hope the M/S has improved or that at least you are working out ways to manage it. It's tough to say the least.
Hi,
just wanted to say congrats hope all is still well
Dory, I have just stumbled on this thread - I am soooooo pleased that you are with bubs, I do hope that all is well I will pray for you, sending you so much love you have been such a support
