I sent off my booking form a couple of days after confirming with the gp so about 3 weeks ago. I had a response within 3 days and my booking appt is tmrw
and I've a dating scan on Thursday, I was waiting way longer on my first, I think I was about 13 weeks but I'm so glad it's soon as I'm not entirely sure on dates 0 -

Found out on Monday that I'm 3 weeks pregnant. I calculated the due date, which is the 24th of July and it's the same date my Mum passed away last year. I thought that was amazing when I found out. I really think she's sending me a gift but I'm gonna miss not having her around for support and advice. Hopefully everything goes well for everyone 0

Congrats to everyone. Was just wondering how long anyone who already had a scan or already has their first scan booked had to wait to hear about their first appointment? I'm based in Dublin but want to have my baby at home in Donegal. Rang my local hospital in Donegal and was told a waiting time of at least 10 weeks for the first scan alone! So, because of that I have decided to opt for combined care and have my initial appointments in the Coombe. Have sent in the forms but haven't heard back when my first appointment is yet. Any ideas of waiting times? I'm anxious to know that everything is on the right track, thanks. 0

Congrats all I had a scan last week at 10+2 days, but only happened so soon as I had slight spotting and high blood pressure. I know Kilkenny don't scan until around the 20 week mark so it's a long wait. Had planned on booking a private scan but not going to as I got one last week No idea about waiting times for Dublin though, take a look at June 2013 thread there are a good few ladies there based in Dublin. 0

Welcome Lolly and congrats!! I hope it's normal cause I am the same this week and am 13 weeks. Back has been driving me nuts, I actually had a slight bit of blood but doc maintains it is normal! Had it before, had scan and all grand so am trying not to worry. I feel like my period is due but not as severe just very uncomfortable this week. My tummy aches, not cramps really but hot water bottle is stuck to my tummy this week. Oh the joys of pregnancy! 0

Pregnancy is a scary thing that's for sure. Wow bet you were thrilled after 3 years to get away without IVF. Every little niggle I have I'm worried and sometimes the internet can be the worst place in the world. My doctor will be so sick of me! Bet you can't wait for your appointment next week, I have one too but don't think they will scan. Have to wait to 20ish weeks, i had a scan at 10weeks though so guess that was lucky 0

I had my first scan yesterday at 12 weeks and was overwhelmed to see the little one. I was so worried something might be wrong because I had a bit of spotting and cramps on New Years Day. Thankfully everything is good and I'm overjoyed. It was amazing to send the pic of the scan to my siblings in Oz and London. Next step is telling my Dad! I have been very lucky so far with the pregnancy that I haven't suffered any side effects and haven't put on much weight. Hopefully this will last.
The sonographer confirmed that I'm due on the 24th of July, my Mum's 2nd anniversary which I think is crazy. Hopefully everything is going well for everyone 0 -

I might as well join in too instead of lurking in the background
I’m 13 weeks pregnant with my first baby and had my 2nd scan yesterday! EDD is 15th July.
Lolly175 I’m doing the Domino in the Rotunda too and I would recommend registering with them first. I had the midwife come to my house within a week and she was brilliant. It was lovely having the initial visit done in the comfort or your own home. The following week I had a scan at 8weeks (dating scan) was in and out in 40mins then had my second scan yesterday and was in and out in 20 mins. I was great especially when you hear all the horror stories of people waiting 2 and 3 hours!!0 -
Girls , thanks for all the lovely replies. It has been a rollercoaster few months, thought we would be going through the dreaded IVF and to find out i was pregnant is unreal. Thats probably why im so freaked out now by all the pains and twinges - im so afraid it will be all snatched away from me!! Like you have all said i know its normal to have pains etc and i need to relax a bit more!
SSuzie, i have registered with Domino but they advised me as its so close to my appointment (only registered with them a few days ago) i was better off sticking with the hospital for that as they coudnt see me any sooner and they will contact me after that.
One thing im not looking forward to is the waiting around at the appointment but be worth it to see all is ok!!!!
Hope you are all having a nice relaxing weekend 0 -

This is so good to hear. I've been having period type symtoms all along so far. I'll be 15 weeks on sunday. I have the slight cramping/knawing ache in my tummy, my back is killing me, and have the sensation down below. I'm going to the toilet every hour because i'm so scared of the pains. I have my appointment at end of Jan and am dying for it. On the website that i use to keep up to date, they say after first trimester you begin to feel human again. I thought this would be great, but i actually don't feel pregnant anymore. I know i am, but the sore boobs, constant nausea and tiredness let me know i was going through something dramatic, now i'm waiting on the bump to really grasp on this that it is real. I'm on my first, but anyone who is on their second, can you remember feeling this way after first trimester?
Also, does anyone know how hard it is to change hospitals? I'm with holles st, and i'm not really liking that you only get one scan! I'm not getting my first scan until 22 weeks
I'm DYING to see it :-/ 0 -

Hi loubian.
My son was born last july and baby no 2 is due this july!! I remember feeling similiar around this time last year. When the sickness disappeared I began to feel like I wasn't pregnant at all! I should have enjoyed it really as the tiredness came back with a bang towards the end and I was getting very little sleep (and u will need ur sleep)! My bump arrived all of a sudden. The hubby kindly pointed out that, yes, I was getting fat!!! Subtle! I now look back at all the worry and antisipation very fondly. It all adds to the experience. Feel like an auld pro this time and its kinda not the same!! Regarding your scans, have you thought about getting those private ones done? I hated the waiting for hospital scan. Got my 1st to date at 12 weeks and didn't get another till 32 weeks! I antagonized about the private ones as they're 200e+ and some people say they're actually too detailed! In the end I didn't bother and was happy I didn't in the end. It might be for you though. You really want to see updates of baby first time round. Its such a worry!0 -
Hi Ladies, can I join in too! Due 26th July!! Am so nervous about every little feeling twinge and would love to share this experience! Have had 2scans so far, one at 8weeks cause I needed to be sure something was in there!!! And then my booking in appoint at 11 weeks! Was so nice to see little buds dancing around!
Congrats! I'm due two days before you. I'm a little nervous but very excited. Just can't wait to meet the little one. 0 -
