*Sensitive* - we have a heartbeat πŸ’“ 6w3d

β€’111 Replies

My lovely ladies,

First of all I want to thank EVERY SINGLE ONE OF YOU that sent me well wishes, sweet messages and words of encouragement- they helped me massively with the anxiety I felt on these last few days.

You are all SO AMAZING. πŸ’—

It’s good news for us today 😍little sausage (how the sonographer called β€˜it’) has a heartbeat ❀️She had a bit of a weird approach though and said that she won’t give me the heartbeat frequency because although it’s good news it’s still very early days and we need to keep our fingers crossed. My little lobster 🦞 measured at 6w3d- she said + or - 4 days doesn’t really matter.

I’m obviously very thankful, happy and less anxious, although I was expecting to feel more β€˜liberated’ and able to β€˜celebrate’ a little. Somehow the lady ruined it for me πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

I am not posting the picture as I don’t want to upset those of you who are going through a tough time, and are always in my thoughts ❀️

I’ll be waiting for more happy news today - I know they’re coming πŸ’‹πŸ’‹πŸ’‹πŸ’‹πŸ’‹

I’m sending you all a huge amount of love πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—πŸ’—

YES ISSY!!! I’ve been looking out for your update! I am SO happy for you!! This is wonderful wonderful news!! πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰πŸŽ‰

Sorry the sonographer ruined things a bit for you. It sounds like she’s not very sensitive to things and/or maybe not used to dealing with an ivf pregnancy. For what it’s worth I’ve never even been offered the heartbeat frequency (and I had a LOT of scans during my last pregnancy πŸ˜‚πŸ€¦πŸ½β€β™€οΈ) - every single person that scanned me just said that as long as there’s a heartbeat at this stage that’s what matters.

I’d say today is a day to celebrate- everything is looking good and by the sounds of things, progressing just as it should be! πŸ’•

Congratulations Issy! πŸ’πŸ€πŸ’•πŸŒˆπŸŽ‰ xxx

It’s Tuesday ! Happy news for a Tuesday 😊 so glad it was another βœ… along the rollercoaster for team 🦞

I so meant to message yesterday but it was a bit of a busy one for team Rhinocat 🦏 🐈

On one hand I want to slap β€˜that lady’ 🀬but on the other, mmmm maybe she β€˜gets’ the ivf journey πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ. Surely every woman needs to keep this in mind tho, so maybe it’s nice to be put in with the rest of the ladies for a brief moment of rejoice. 😘πŸ€ͺ

I’m sure you are exhausted from the emotion of it all today and could probably have a wee nap 😴 🀣

Delighted to see your update already here when I logged in πŸ˜˜πŸŽ‰πŸ’πŸ’–

All going in the right direction ,

Amazing news issylobster and littlesausage! I am delighted for you, must be such a relief! Are you going to do panorama or harmony test? What is your due date? I am so envious of you, I loved being pregnant despite being bed bound with terrible sickness for 4-5 months. Enjoy every single day. Lots of love xx

in reply to Mmmpudding

Hi pudding dear!!πŸ’—thank you so much! I’ve booked another scan on 12th March when I’ll be 9w (hopefully πŸ€žπŸ»πŸ€), next Monday I’m going to my GP to start the NHS journey....but yet thinking of doing the harmony - due date is 15/10/2020 (so weird to write this!) ....wow bed bound with morning sickness must have been SO hard! I have it on and off every day now...not eating a lot and mainly eating bland food which doesn’t smell or has any taste πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚but don’t care! When are you going to the lister? Xx

Thank you Issy! I need positive words. Two hours ago, just to make it all more exciting I spotted some brownish discharge...

Hi Rachy2020,

Just to put your mind at ease, I had a bit of brown discharge right around the same time as you and everything was fine at my scan. I know it’s scary but it’s super normal. Sending you a big hug for Thursday β™₯️ xxx

in reply to Rachy2020

Nah progesterone will fix it- maybe on Thursday if you get the chance ask for a blood test to check progesterone levels...are you doing injections on top of pessaries? Mine was low so they added an injection of Prontogest every other day and now my levels are great πŸ’ͺπŸ»πŸ€

Rachy2020 profile image
Rachy2020 in reply to

Thank you both for your comforting words ❀️. The last time I asked my dr to check my progesterone she said that even if she did there was not a cut-off so she would not br able to tell wether it was low or not. I am only taking pessaries.
