Due September 2009

Hi Sarah

Good luck for your scan today.
We are still also in shock over the private costs but at this stage are thinking its the way to go.
I am also finding hiding it can be a little difficult especially as I was in Australia for Christmas/New Year. I am finding the New Years Resolution line works quite well to get out of drinking alcohol! :)
 
Ha ha! I had to use the old antibiotics card last night but that's not going to cut it for long! Also I hear that apple juice with a bit of soda can look just like white wine to the untrained eye....you just have to go up to the bar and order in stealth mode!

Good luck at the scan today, Amy...hope there's plenty to see!

I think I'm due a week later than I predicted...so mid-Sept.
 
Could see the sac and a grain of rice but not much else :-(

But, at least it's in the right place, just have to wait a few more weeks!
 
Nevermind! It's nice to know there's something (or someone) in there though. My next scan is right after CNY so I'm looking forward to a bit more action from the wee one.

I'm starting to get a few more symptoms which is reassuring. I'm getting dizzy spells and sore boobs but thankfully no sickness ;)
 
Does anyone know if the first appointment at Tseun Yuk includes a scan? I have heard it doesn't, so in which case will arrange a private one for week 9.

Oh, and does anyone know if QM provide an NT test or does that have to be private as well?

I tried to get an Early Consultation at Annerley this week to ask all these questions, but they are fully booked which is a shame.
 
I think that the very first appointment is just to register and then the first scan will be at 12 weeks. In a normal pregnancy, I think 2 scans is the norm. One at 12 and one much later on. I think lots of people suppliment this with a few extra scans with a private OB.

I don't know what an NT test is??!! He he! Still a bit in the dark over here!
 
Had the first scan today. Was very tiny but all where it should be and she could detect the heart.
The OB puts me at 6 weeks 3 days which is a few less than I thought I was, I thought I was 7 weeks, so am a bit bummed out that I will have a few extra days of nausea than I was expecting! It has gotten really bad lately although no vomiting and the odd bout of dizzyness. Am really hanging out for the second trimester!!

Hope you ladies are all well.
Take care

Hi ladies,

I am due for end of august/start of september!
It's my first pregnancy and nobody around had experienced it before, so a little lonely.

I have had a scan 2 weeks ago, and everything seems fine, the tiny baby was pretty clear, I could even see the hart beating, amazing :flower:
 
I think I went to a rubbish scan place - the iRad is more diagnostic than anything else.

I have an apointment in Central, Tak Shing House on the 9th which will be my 9th week with a OB which I am sure will be much much better. I will ask her about the NT (Downs Syndrome) testing at the same time.

Can't wait to know for sure that all is OK, do not have that many symptoms except extremely sore breasts, an increased appetite and occassional nausea (although have not been sick). I am tired in the evening but fine in the day, so hoping that I stay like this!

Happy new year everyone!
