So I have made it to 7 weeks 1 day and this last week I have been feeling more and more anxious as the days go by...
What if there is nothing there, or there's no heartbeat? I haven't had any morning sickness, my boobs hurt less, I just don't know what is normal and I'm going slightly crazy 🤪
Please keep your fingers, toes and legs crossed for me!! 💙 Xx
Update: So there actually IS a baby in there, saw the heartbeat pounding away... So weird! And it is measuring at 7w2days, so bigger but that's probably because we're both quite tall.. I'm gonna have a massive baby lol. I have been discharged from the clinic too and have my first midwife appointment next weds! 💙
Thank you everyone for being so kind and I wish you all the best.. 😘

Good luck Michelle, i’m a couple of weeks ahead and know exactly how you feel!! You will be absolutely fine. I had no nausea until 8.5 weeks and my off and on boobs stopped hurting at all at exactly 7 weeks and I was terrified but all was good. Thinking of you and looking forward to an update v soon 🙏🏼😘xxx
Good luck - can’t wait to hear how you do. I’m 2 weeks behind you. My scan can’t come soon enough especially after the bit of bleeding I had yesterday 😩 Hope all goes well with you 🤞🤞🤞
I am - no bleeding at the moment - just brown spots. I hate that I can’t get excited about this. The waiting is torture and not knowing what is going on is even worse
Yeh I totally agree, we think the first two weeks are the hardest but in actual fact, it doesn't get any easier. I'm hoping the brown spotting will completely stop, it can't be nice having any kind of blood. Fingers crossed xx
Thank you hun. Still sat waiting, we saw the sonographer walk up the corridor away from the clinic about 20 mins ago! She's not come back yet.. Rubbish time to take a break just before an appointment lol. So nervous xx
I am 7 weeks 1 day, but it's measuring a day bigger but me and my husband are tall and we both have tall relatives, my cousins are 6ft5 lol. So could take after the tall people in our family. 31st December is still the due date, which is our 7 Yr anniversary of when we decided to be together xx
Yeh so weird to see it beating away! She said it was measuring at 10mm, not sure if that's big or not. I was a big and long baby lol. Fingers crossed it stays where it should xxx
I have no idea lol! I had mine at 7 weeks 5 and was measuring at 13.8mm which apparently is spot on for that date. Like you say though, we are all different! You may just have an extra tall baby 😊 xxx
Ha ha no I'm sure you'll be fine...just don't mistake the umbilical cord for a trunk at your next scan 😂
I'm excited and nervous. I think I'll have a long wait as I will be 12 weeks the day before we go on holiday so I think I'll be closer to 14 weeks by the time I actually have it! May book in for a private one beforehand to give us peace of mind while we are away 😊
Still have zero symptoms! Did you manage to download any apps or are the cat pictures still taking over? Lol xxx
I'm thinking of doing a private scan before my 12w so I reckon you should to 😆 I reckon it would definitely give you peace of mind.
Yeh downloaded the two you said, fortunately I didn't have to erase any cat pictures 🐱 I don't have many symptoms yet, apart from being a lot more tired and if I don't eat (which is constantly atm) then I feel a bit queasy. Xx
Thank you hun. Yeh it's hard in some ways to share because I know not everyone is so lucky and I do feel bad when I know people are getting sad news. But then in some ways it might give people some hope that it can work. I want everyone to have their dreams come true. Xx
Yay! So happy for you. This gives me so much hope as I feel the same as you! Xx
Thanks. It'll be you next week. It's so bizarre seeing this little thing with its heart beating away, unbelievable really. Especially as I was thinking it can't be in there, I'm not throwing up and I feel quite normal, apart from tiredness xx
Aww congratulations it makes you feel so much better when you've been for your scan doesnt it! I'm due on 28th December so we're very close together xx
Thank you, Yeh I do feel better and it has just made it feel for real! I hope I don't end up in the local newspaper with a baby born 1 minute after midnight on new year lol. Xx
Getting there Thank you. The sickness seems to have slowed down over The past couple of days, so i hope thats not a bad sign. Ive Got another scan on Thursday too. Xx
That's good you have another scan on Thursday, I'm sure all will be good. I expect the morning sickness will ease off as time goes on, but I can understand your worries. Good luck at the next scan xxx
Thankyou i bet the relief is even more amazing than the bfp news .... its hard to focus isnt it ive had zero symptoms only cramps on and off boobs hurt less like urself no morning sickness i cant wait to hear that little heartbeat 💗 .... Xxx
I now consider myself lucky that I haven't been throwing up, although it would have been nice to have lost a couple pounds and not put them on lol. It's like we want all the symptoms to confirm something is there and think something is wrong when there aren't... But I suppose we're all different and actually our symptoms are normal. We just don't normally have anything to compare it to as we've never been in this position before! 💙 The scan definitely makes it real, like it's definitely there lol. Xxx
Currently on day 9 and broken my promise not to use google 😂 feel like period due, which is how I felt with my BFN. So not feeling too hopeful but trying to keep some hope ... nearly there!
Lovely news for you though, must be a mixture of nerves and excitement!! Xxx
You have done so well not to Google for this long and not do a sneaky test lol.
I constantly felt like my period was coming, still do sometimes! So that might not mean bfn hun. I remember half way through not having any symptoms apart from the feeling of a period arriving.
Think I'm more nerves than excited.. Past couple of days I don't feel at all pregnant, not as queasy etc. I don't think I'll ever stop worrying.
Awww that is so pretty. So happy for you. Congratulations, my friend. Here I am sending you love and luck in future. Take good care of yourself. Eat healthily. Go for a walk daily. Try to stay happy. All you have to do these days is to take good care of yourself. And stay calm and happy.
