Further update - just had my scan today and there was a sac with a teeny tiny dot inside so they have signed me off from the EPU 
now just got to wait for my 12 week scan! I feel so relieved just knowing it isnāt in my tube, can finally breathe again x
Fingers crossed all is well at your next scan! Itās just such a scary time in between waiting isnāt it. X

Hi DeeDee all good my end so far thank you. how are you? Any update since your last scan? Hope all is well.
Hi Claire, all is well my end - well, I say well, I feel absolutely awful, Iām 7+2 now and the morning sickness (or should I say all day sickness) has well and truly kicked in! Im also ravenous which I wasnāt like with my other pregnancies so itās a bit of an adjustment lolā¦ how are you getting on symptom wise? I have my booking in appointment on Monday so looking forward to meeting my midwife, still seems like forever away til my 1st āproperā scanā¦ you must be due yours soon? X
Hi DeeDee, thatās great news that theyāve confirmed baby is in the right place, I hope you have a sense of reliefā¦ I too feel terrible. Iāve got 2 children already and had rough pregnancies with them but being pregnant in my mid 30s def feels different to being pregnant in my mid 20s. Iām so tired and the nausea has been horrendous, Im on anti sickness tablets but even struggle to keep them down sometimes. I have my dating scan next Weds. I did cave and have a private scan last Friday and was measuring a bit ahead at 11+2 so will see what they say at my dating scan. Enjoy your booking apt, it def made it feel more real once Iād had that and started to let myself get a bit more excited about being pregnant again rather than just being constantly scared of something going wrong. Keep us updated x
Hi Claire, sounds bad but Iām so glad itās not just me suffering! Lol, think weāre quite similar as Iām now 36 and had my other 2 at 25 & 27, so age could definitely be playing a part, though my previous pregnancies with my boys were actually quite straight forward, maybe this is my comeuppance! Iām really tempted to book a private scan, another 4 or so weeks to wait is going to drag so much - Iām glad is well with yours and youāre now at a point where you can breathe a bit easier x
Ha no I know what you mean, helps to know youāre not the only one in this situation. We havenāt told any family or friends yet so itās still top secret until next week once we have had the nhs dating scan and managed to get our parents together so does feel quite lonely at times not being able to share it with anyoneā¦ Especially when at work and feeling like absolute rubbish! Yes very similar. I was also 25 and 27 when I had my two, pre-eclampsia with my son and then my hips werenāt good with my daughter and she ended up coming a month early so surprise suprise they said I will be high risk again with this one and under the doctor as well as midwife said it means extra apts and scans but suppose it means they keep an extra eye on making sure all is okay so suppose its not necessarily a bad thing! I would def recommend a private scan it was such a lovely experience being able to see baby straight away on a big screen on the wall as layin on the bedā¦ I felt like it took them forever to tell me at early scan on NHS tht baby was in right place and they could see a heartbeat my anxiety was through the roof but being able to see baby wriggling around on the big screen was amazing and gave me a massive sense of relief building up to the dating scan. Really hope you start to feel better v soon and that everything continues to go well. For you xx
