not had internet for a while as got cut off grrrrr! so not been able to update much til now.
well as title says we have a heartbeat inside a teeny weeny lil baby. only measuring at 4.1mm awwww!!!!! saw my doctor yesterday who booked me in for a scan an hour later. had my bloods taken and then went for a scan. felt like the longest 10 mins of my live as the sonographer got what she needed (and as was a trainee too alot longer to find my ovaries etc). finally she turned the screen around and there was my baby with a heartbeat! am so happy and so releived and can try and relax a little now i know the rate of m/c has gone down once a heartbeat is detected.
was measured at 6 weeks but am sticking with my 6+6 til the dating scan as know its more reliable then.
i go back in 2 weeks for another scan which is fab as wasnt expecting them to book me in again so soon though was told it might replace my dating scan but i'm hoping it doesnt.
doctor i saw to confirm my pregnancy was meant to book me in but typically she hadnt so was waiting 2 weeks for nothing. wasnt until saw doctor for some anti-sickness tablets that he noticed so now have to wait another 2 weeks am not a happy bunny about that!
on other news the morning sickness has hit me good and proper and have had to start taking tablets for it which i really dont want to do but i need to for the sake of me,the baby and the girls. its not fair on them to have such a poorly mummy who cant do anything but lay on the sofa and be sick all the time. at least on these tablets i can get through the day.
tiredness has eased a bit now which i'm really pleased about though have been going to bed early past few nights probably down to the sickness more then anything.
so all in all feeling very postiive that this baby is meant to be and cant wait for my next scan.
ooo also got a doppler from my good friend emma she kindly sent me it when she saw that i was after buying one. which was soooooo lovely of her as they cost alot to buy but she said if it reassured me then she was happy. love her to bits one of the best friends i could ever ask for even though not met her in real life yet.
will update in a few days time if have any to report on.

the worrys and excitement start
oh god not done a blog for a while. have been so tired lately that when i get round to typing one up my eyes are too tired to focus. so told myself i would write today.
well have been testing still even went out on payday and bought some more including some digis and its reassured me alot.
went to see the doctor to get booked in on the 7th jan and she was horrid. didnt want to listen to my concerns or rather didnt want to take them on board. asked to be reffered for a scan and she said she will but that the epu would only scan me if there was something wrong so basically saying you probably wont get a scan.
i came out of the doctors feeling upset and deflated. it was like no one wanted to care about me or my baby and my lost babies didnt matter.
the next day the 8th i started getting some serious cramping which had me doubled over at one point. i waited all day to see if the pains would ease but they didnt so rang epu which was shut. the next morning i tried again to be told i needed to be reffered by a doctor so phoned doctors and managed to get an appointment that day after explaining to the receptionist. i was dreading going as i thought i would have got the misery cow i got on the monday but was suprised to see a different doctor called dr rose. another female who was this time english and she couldnt of been more lovely.
she listened to my concerns and seemed genuinely worried for me especially as i told her my history of losing my angels. she took her time and reassured me and then tried to get through to the epu but then again it was shut so she promised to ring the epu the next morning and let me know what they say.
she said she was shocked the epu wouldnt see me without a refferal and it actually felt i had someone on mine and my babys side and all the positivity i lost with the 1st doctor i regained with her.
after seeing her i felt so much better and i'm determined to see her throughout my pregnancy if i can.
anyways the next morning the receptionist called saying the doctor had rang the epu but they wouldnt scan me til 6 weeks and i had a choice of seeing a doctor on the 19th or seeing dr rose on the 21st who would then book me a scan. of course i chose to see dr rose. so fingers crossed i will get to see my baby on or a few days after the 21st. i just hope the epu are considerate and dont pass me off as a neuorotic mother-to-be.
still suffering with the same symptoms. nausea seems to be kicking in mainly last thing at night when i'm in bed and first thing in the morning. am just glad that when i eat it makes it go away but i know give it a week or 2 and that morning sickness will hit me in the face and i will become best friends once again with the toilet bowl. going to try my best to get on with it this time round and try to avoid the tablets atleast until i get past 9 weeks and know things are ok. dont want to do anything this time round to harm my baby even paracetamol i would rather suffer.
hoping sometime next week i will get my midwife appointment through think with my last pregnancy it took about 2 weeks or just over and its been a week since i saw the doctor.
really looking forward to this pregnancy i just hope my precious baby decides to stay with us and is safe and warm in my womb.

Digi Says......
PREGNANT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
OMG! i couldnt wait to test so i did it at midnight on the 2nd/3rd and it came up with pregnant 1-2 which is spot on for when i ovulated.
its only just starting to sink in properly have to pinch myself every now and then to make sure its real. did 2 more test this morning a tesco and a cheapy both nice bfps.
think next week when i get payed i might invest in more digital tests think it will reassure me to see the conception indicator go up.
symptoms past two days have been similar to the ones at 11dpo. tiredness is really bugging me would be easier if charlotte actually slept right through the night. broken sleep isnt good it makes me more tired! i got quite alot of hours sleep last night so thought would feel better today but after being woken at 3.30am and then 5am i felt as awful as i have the past few days!
nausea hit me this morning but only lasted a while once i had eaten it went away. glad that for now its not full on morning sickness hopefully that wont start til 6 weeks so just enjoying eating while i can!
at doctors tomorow so hoping get things moving and get some blood tests booked and an early scan though knowing them i wont hear anything for at least 2 weeks for a scan. i did ring epu but they wont let me self refer myself even after my history which isnt fair as some places let you refer and some dont.should be one rule for everywhere imo!
i really really hope this doesnt end before its begun like the last two pregnancies. please my tiny miracle stay safe and warm for mummy! x

happy new year!
wow its been a week since i last posted! been so busy with the girls and with the festives that i havent had chance to pop on.
what a week its been as well!
we did it we got our bfp!!!!! wasnt so sure about this month and thought was out. but at 8dpo i got a faint line. told myself not to be so silly and it was an evap line but after using several tests everyday and seeing more lines it must be true!
i can't beleive it! i'm in denial at the moment i think. probably my subconcious protecting me if the worst happens but i am staying positive and not thinking about it too much as want to relax with this pregnancy and enjoy it even if it does end too early again.
even better news my best friend whos daughter is 5 days older then charlotte is pg again too and due in the same month!!! its madness! also a ttc friend got her bfp also so am in good company and feel it must be a sign everythings ok with my baby.
going to do a digi tomorow and think it will sink in for me when i see those pregnant words.just hoping theres enough hormones to detect it.
i'm hoping after having a lovely start to the new year that 2009 will only get better and better.
symptoms so far are:
7dpo- got a spot on my neck i never get them on my neck unless i'm pg,sore boobs and i gagged when i tried to eat a cheese and onion pasty. the cheese tasted really horrid. also felt a sharp pain in my right hand side close to my womb which i think was implantation faint line on a sure sign test that night.
8dpo-sore boobs again and tiredness felt sorry for jason as hes not had a lie in this week as i have been too tired to get up.now i know why lol. faint line on a sure sign test.
9dpo-boobs hurt even more,tiredness really kicking in couldnt sleep got too hot and couldnt find a comfy position hoping its not like this all the time!,weeing lots seem every 5 mins i need to go again.stretching pains felt like af was coming.faint line on a reveal test and a superdrug test
10dpo- boobs still hurt, tiredness even worse couldnt get comfy and so was awake most of the night tossing and turning.constipation quite badly feel really sore,still weeing lots,more stretching cramps and really really hot.another faint line on a superdrug test.
11dpo (today!)- really hot normally am really cold and have duvet over me and heating on but have taken duvet off me as too hot,hunger panes possibly due to only having some toast as too tired to go out and get some shopping,weeing even more bladder feels constantly full all the time.feel bloated too! darker line on superdrug test,faint line on first response and faint line on a cheapy.
so thats it so far really hope that this baby sticks! will update tomorow when i do the digi x
