    Hi all

    I am due my first and am super excited.

    Have early scan friday week as doctor unsure of expected due date. It could be dec 6th or jan 6th.

    Reason we are unsure is that i had what i believed was a period but then 5dpo i did a pregnancy test, clear blue, that said 3+ weeks! So for now i will say jan as dont want to get my hopes up that baby might come sooner!

    So for now i would love to join jan group x x

    Welcome Plumella. Good luck with the scan.

    Thanks 'all4shopping' and congrats to you too! This is going to sound like I'm as thick as a brick but 'how early' can you have a scan?


  • Registered Users Posts: 204 ✭✭lashofeye


    Hi was waiting for this thread to start :) did a test thursday and was positive dates say I'm due jan 1st :)
    Just told a handful of family will tell friends etc later on !!!!


  • Registered Users Posts: 204 ✭✭lashofeye


    Any body going to the Coombe?? Also do I need to send off a form to get an appointment as well as the one the doctor sends??


  • Registered Users Posts: 926 ✭✭✭fall


    Hi to all. Holles street do a scan at twenty weeks but the coombe do one at twelve. Not sure about the Rotunda.You can pay to have a scan done privately from around seven.
    Lash of eye, I sent the form from the website in as well as the doctors letter to the Coombe and I was telephoned the next day with my date for my scan. You can fax it too. Might speed things along. I am due the second so we could be there at the same time!


  • Registered Users Posts: 668 ✭✭✭Coopaloop


    Aww congrats everyone. Such an exciting time. I'm part of the due January 14 group.
    Was due my little dude the 2nd of Jan but he decided to hang on till the 16th.

    Enjoy every minute, it goes so fast xx

    By Gp sent in a form to them last thurs for an appointment, got a form Monday to fill out with mine and baby's dads details and said when they got that back they would send out my first app, is that the same for everyone?


  • Registered Users Posts: 926 ✭✭✭fall


    Same form is online. They didn't even want my doctors letter. You can just send the form in yourself

    Hi everyone and congratulations to you all!! I had a small scan with my consultant yesterday which is questioning my dates which I thought were mid dec but now look like 30th Dec so I might just float between here and dec '14 if that's ok???


  • Registered Users Posts: 70 ✭✭witchity2


    Hey Congrats to everyone. Like wicklori my dd is 29th december, but my last two were both born 14 days over, so i'm guessing number 3 will be the same. No real symptoms as yet apart from sheer exhaustion. The bra though i think will need to go up a size already and its only 7 weeks

    My initial reaction of joy has turned into real fear the past 24 hours - Is this wrong to feel this way - I'm finding it all so overwhelming even though it's what we wanted I'm full of fear about everything! :( please tell me this is just hormones, it's been 18 years since my last pregnancy so I feel like it's my first!

    AWWWW HORMONES!!! Try not to worry.... I can't relate to your exact situation but we havea 14 month old and are looking at moving continent before the baby is bor. I regularly get the heebeejeeebees and I really think hormones make everything worse! Your little baby is very much wanted and welcome and all will be well- but feck them hormones!


  • Registered Users Posts: 74 ✭✭budweiser6


    You're very kind wicklori - hope all goes well for you!


  • Registered Users Posts: 926 ✭✭✭fall


    Hi Budweiser, I would definitely think it is hormones. You may be going through a surge and it can make everything seem like a mountain to climb. I had a meltdown at the weekend in terms of fear. Trying for years to get pregnant again (have one child)and now it's happened it's terrifying and amazing all at once. I think when you want something so bad and then it happens it really can be overwhelming and make you second guess yourself.

    You will need to bring a copy of the doctor's letter when you attend the Coombe for your first appointment though if you don't send it in with the form.
    I am 20 weeks on my first and am attending the Coombe as a semi private patient. I have been very happy with everything so far I'm happy to report.

    Its your hormones. I remember bawling my eyes out one Saturday morning because it felt like I was going to be nauseated and tired forever and ever and that was before the baby came. Then when the baby would come I was convinced that I'd be too sick and tired to enjoy it or be a good mother and I'd be a horrible wife for my husband to have to live with and I've never feel like my old normal self ever again. ........................

    Two days later (when I hit magical week 14) I woke up feeling like my old self, had energy again, actually wanted to eat breakfast and get up and do things.

    It is daunting but fabulous and now that I'm not that long out of the first trimester and look back on it I wonder how the hell anyone gets through it. :)
