Roller Coaster ride..

Ok, so after that first week of celebrating, I started bleeding: not a huge amount, but bright red drops like the start of a period. We were both utterly devastated and to make matters worse, my parents were over so now they know everything!

But.. the bleeding stopped. That was on Sunday morning, 27th Feb. It came back a little in the form of dark mucus blurgh!) yesterday (tues) so I decided to book an appointment at the Early Pregnancy Unit down the road to see if we were all still on track.

My first scan was this morning: 6 weeks and 1 day since last period. The scan showed a good sac and yolk, but no embryo yet. The Dr. was happy and put the pregnancy at 4-5 weeks which sounded a little worrying to me initially, but after a lot of investigation, it appears that this is quite normal: early scans can often put your dates back a week or two. I also probably ovulated 4-5 days later than I had actually thought, looking at my other dates, so that would put me at roughly 4 weeks since conception only.

All good. Next scan on 14th March. H is coming this time.

Fingers crossed and no booze!!
