I have such good news, lol. Had my scan yesterday and Tiger is just perfect, was measuring smack bang on 11 weeks and 1 day and heartrate of 165. The tech said we had an extremely healthy baby cos 'sick babies don't dance like that' LOL! Tiger was jigging around like anything, DH was talking to him to see if Tiger would move when he spoke. And it appears we may be having a little boy! The tech said he wouldn't count on it though, cos girl bits can be enlarged to look like boy bits, but when he looked at Tiger's feet, Tiger did a full on leg spread and showed off his bits, and from side on there definitely appeared to be a little bit of a willy. I feel so ridiculously incredibly relieved, keep looking at the pics, it reminds me of getting the BFP and I kept looking at the stick, like the baby lived in the stick and not in my belly! MS is starting to leave the building too, I actually wanted food today, just a cheese and tomato toastie, but I ate it and then didn't feel sick. Slowly starting to sink in that I'm gonna be bringing this baby home.
KIT Are you in a bellybuddies group yet? When are you due? We may be just a bit apart of the groups! So happy for you and now you know its time for a TICKER!
Possum magic - my thoughts go out to you in this difficult time. I agree with the others this forum is a great place to express your fears and concerns we've all been there before so please if you need to post please do.
Kit - congrats on your exciting news its so great to get the all clear at that first big scan. My husband was so excited when we found out our first child was a little boy, i think his exact words to the tech was 'is that a willy?'
Holy crap Possum, just went back through the posts! Darling I'm so sorry, it's so freaking scary! I had that big bleed and it was clotty, then dates were out by 5 days and tiger had a slow heartbeat at 6 weeks, the tech then (grrrr) basically told me to prepare to miscarry, and everything has turned out to be ok. For all the women that have scary stuff happen, there will be lots who will be ok, there is no reason why you wouldn't be in the ok group. Thinking of you hon xo
Possum will be thinking of you on wednesday hun and hope that your scan shows that everything is ok. Feel free to post whateva you like we wont be brought down by it one little bit. Kit i am so happy for you hun, you deserve it (as do we all). Glad to hear that tiger was so active, isnt it just the best thing to see, mine was very active at the 12 week scan too, jumping around like a little jack rabbit. Audax glad to hear your feeling better and catching up on the housework. Im starting to get really tired now too and am counting down till maternity leave 4 weeks WOO HOO Tegam good luck with the scan, im sure all will be perfect for you Angelfish sorry to hear your having a tough time at home at the moment. My DP doesnt quite understand that im getting very tired now and that i cant do everything i used to, he also just thinks im lazy at times but im slowly getting it through to him.. Is there anyone else who can casually talk to him and tell him that when your pregnant you get very tired. I found that has helped with my sis and BIL saying it to my DP. Hope you can sort it out hun
Hello milly5, millyd, dory, HPL, Iona, alice, hoping and anyone else i have missed. AFM im not too bad having a bit of a downer at the moment, combination of having to go back to work after a week off and just wanting to meet this little one. I know its still too early but just want the next 8 weeks to come and go and meet our little man. All i feel like doing at the moment is crying and just curling up on the couch but im sure ill snap out of it soon and everything will be fine. Anyway sorry for the whinge ladies but i know you are always here to listen.
Take care all
KIT
