I am having my NT scan tomorrow and praying that my baby is still well and *there* eek I hate thinking like this!
Does anyone else worry like this that maybe the pregnancy may have ended etc....

Maybe it is cos of the losses I have been through in the past or is this normal?

I am sure things will be okkk as I have been feeling some sensations happening inside now!! :thumbsup:

Me too - even when I thought I had the jitters under control at my last scan, the relief I felt when I saw the jellie bean was overwhelming.

It will be a long two weeks until the next scan!

Good luck tomorrow

Me too I've got my scan tomorrow to see if it's twins and I'm terrified in case somethings happened since last week, I've got to go on my own too so that's not helping. I think it's normal because we can't see in there ourselves. I wish we had a window so we could see everything was ok. (Maybe a bit too gross :laughing: ).

Hi I don't know when I am due, I wasn't really planning on being pregnant just yet but from what I can work out I am due in May, I go for my first scan on Friday 27/10 I am really nervous too I am just worried that something will be wrong, I have never had a loss, but I have been doing so much research and have made myself nervous by reading all the facts and figures... 76% of first pregnacies end in miscarriage ect. I am doing it to myself and it is silly but I am glad I am not the only nervous one! Hope all goes well and I will let you all know how I go on Friday.:fingerscrossed:

I was more nervous about the scan this time thatn i was for my first bubba! I have not lost a bub, but my sister lost one earlier this year. I think that just made me paranoid something was wrong. I had an appt for the NT scan last week (and i thought it was too early, but the receptionist said to keep the appt it would be fine) and the bubs was too small to do it properly! It is measuring about 4days smaller than my dates s i have to go back on thursday so they can re-do it. Now that i have sen bubbas heartbeat moving about I thought i'd be fine - but now i am worried that it is small because i have been so sick & not eating enough. I don't think the worry is ever gonna stop, but i was not this worried when pregnant with DD - it's weird.

:hugs: to everyone still waiting for their scans! I hope the ones yesterday went well! I can't wait to see the pics. I will post one later in the week after my next scan.

Girls I know exactly what you all mean. Yesterday was my first OB appt. We had our normal 20min interview with the midwife then went into Jock's office. He said "Now how are you feeling?" to which I replied "Beside myself with worry!!" - he said straight away up on the table, switched on the ultrasound and said "Look - here is a baby and here is a heartbeat! Do you feel better now?" Boy oh boy, did I ever!!! I hope that everything goes really well for you both today. Yet another reason why I love my OB - he always knows what to do to make me feel better!!

Hi, I'm back sorry I didn't come back on earlier my DH and DS2 have come down with a sickness virus and I've started with it too now.:barf:

Anyway I still don't know if it's twins or not.:gloomy: The stupid sonographer was incredibly rude and refused to do the vaginal scan said it's wasn't needed did a quick 1 minute abdominal scan and said there's only one baby the other probably won't be viable and that there was no rush to find out. Come back next week, but he was going on about not having too many etc.. so why not just do it then.:mad: :crying: I was so angry and upset he made me out to be this stupid women who had booked in for an unnecessary scan off of my own back. It was a doctors referal for god sake. I made an appointment to see my GP this afternoon and see what the report said from last weeks scan. I told him everything that had happened and he said that he shouldn't have spoken to me like that and then he said that in his opinion from the scan report it looks like it was twins but that one of them hasn't developed. He said it is up to me if I want to go for the scan next week (at the first hospital I went to last week) but that if I have too many early scans medicare may say that many wasn't really necessary and I'd get a bill for them. I can't afford that so I don't know what to do. I didn't sign anything today and he gave me the radiology paper back so I don't know if they are going to charge me for it or not. Any advice would be great. Sorry it's so long but I'm still really mad and upset about it all and to top it all off I've now got this sickness bug.

Sounds like the sonographer needs a big kick in the head! What a pig speaking to you like that! If your Dr has referred you for the scan it isn't his place to question why - he should just to do his bloody job & do the scan properly! I would (try) and put my foot down & not pay anything/not get medicare charged for this scan at all. The B#stard didn't do the scan properly or deal with the issue that needed to be dealt with, so he shouldn't get paid for it! I would definately make a complaint to the place you had the scan at about how insensitive, rude & incompetent the pig was. As far as I am concerned his job was to do as the referring dr requested and if he didn't he should get into trouble for it.
My OB had my appt for my NT scan too early (despite me ringing to suggest changing it) and I didn't get charged for it (it was in his office - so an easy call for him)
:hugs: to you. I hope you get some answers from your dr soon.

Fozzie - that is TERRIBLE bedside manner of that guy to speak to you that way... Some people have no idea, do they! Maybe you should just go for the other one next week. Seriously, you will rest a lot better when you *know* whats going on... Stupid sonographer...

O&B'sMummy - how did your scan go??? I hope everything is alright!

Thanks everyone, i'm going to ring and cancel the appointment I made yesterday and find out if it was charged it shouldn't be. Then perhaps got to the one next week the sonographer was lovely. I think what the doctor said is what has happened but I think being told when someone is actually looking in there will put my mind at rest.

How did you go Kristy, I hope everything is ok.:hugs:
