I had my First Scan

[Edayy]

Well on Tuesday i went for my first scan and it was such a wonderful experience and since actaully seeing the baby it has hit me that it is really all happening i am one week earlier than we calculated so i am 11 weeks instead of 12 so i need to go back for another scan on the 17th as the baby was too small to measure. Next time i go i am going to get the scan on video.

Sooo my due date is now 22nd January 2003!!!

Eda, that's lovely!

I didn't realise you could get the scan on video, in my day we just had the black and white photograph, mind you the last time was 9 years ago so I guess we have moved on since then!

You never know, if the baby arrives a bit early you could have a Christmas Baby!

Hi Eda,

The first scan is such an experience isn't it! I can remember with both my daughters that amazing feeling of seeing them for the first time I hope you are enjoying your pregnancy so far. Have you had any morning sickness or are you suffering any weird and wonderful cravings yet?

That's wonderful, Eda What an amazing experience!

(Janice, we had the scans 'in my day', but no such thing as taking home photos or videos )

Eda,

Your first scan is wonderful news..It makes it all seem real somehow

When I had my scans I really wanted a photo and offered to pay for one but they wouldn't allow it,a video would have been amazing.Guess I had my offspring too early!

Hi Eda - I had to have two scans of Katie

In those days (all 9 years ago ) you had to drink what seemed like gallons of water to extend your bladder and push up baby - I can remember panicking that I wouldn't be able to life my leg up to get on the table for fear of tiddling myself!!

A video - what a lovely idea.

Take care of yourself.

Thanks Everyone!!!

Gosh if i didn't have a scan i would be so worried, wondering if the baby is OK. I have a little black and white photo but the hospital charge £10 for the video and i think i will be watching it over and over again.

So far so good with the sickness and next week i will be 12 weeks so i think i have been really luckily but i am feeling sooo sleepy all the time. All i want to do when i go home from work is sleep, i don't even want any dinner. Tonight we are going for a meal and then to bar with some friends and i don't know how i am going to last!!!

LOL Mrs D !! Ah yes! I remember it well!!!!!!! It's amazing how the scan takes your mind off it isn't it?!! Don't they do that any more?
