Welcome Orange! Great that you had your scan must be reassuring considering your experience. I'm due either 16th or 21st depending on whether its counted as the date of LMP or taking account my short cycle. I'm not too fussed about the due date as baby will come when good and ready

Hi everyone,
I was just wondering what kind of questions I should be asking in the hospital for my first visit?
Also, has anyone been having really crazy dreams? I’ve been told by my husband that I’ve been very agitated at night and last night I scared the life out of him by kneeling up in the bed and shouting and screaming that there was someone over in the corner of the room
I’m going on a hen in a few weeks and I’m scared I’ll frighten the poor woman i’ll Be sharing with 0 -

I'm going on a hen in a few weeks too hopefully I don't have any vomiting fits to set anyone else off. Although have been feeling a bit better the last two days touch wood now. Also have had those dreams where I have seen mice crawling up the walls and thought they were in room my husband thought it was hysterical. Not for me it wasn't.0 -

I can't believe the amount of women on here that had a miscarriage too
I just hope we are over the 12 weeks now and the scans went well that things are as positive that can be! I have told family and friends so far but still reluctant to post anything on FB yet... Does anyone know if you always get a scan at the consultant visit in the Coombe? I have my 1st one in 3 weeks and will be 15-16 weeks then just wondering what happens at these appointments. Thanks girls 0 -

Glad all went OK today Mirrorwall, enjoy the relaxing
I will Well long day tomorrow but I'll be able to pop up to the room which is nice.
Also I won't need anti D again until 18 weeks unless its a substantial bleed rather than spotting so I'm delighted about that. And the midwife was absolutely lovely. Chatting away in between work as it was dead quiet this morning. Turned out she had stayed in the conference hotel before and raved about it. Its so nice when they are personable0 -

Aww mirrorwall that sounds awful
Fair play to you giving up your holidays for the conference.
I had my booking appointment today and she said I'm not eligible for the Domino scheme because I have an underactive thyroid. I feel somewhat disappointed as it sounds as though there is a lot of consistency of care with the Domino scheme. That said I am of course grateful and trusting of the need for consultant led care. As a public patient will I see the same consultant all the time? When will I even see him? His name is on my appointment card, Gunther von Bunau - has anyone any experience of him?0 -

Honestly I’d recommend it, it’s absolutely fascinating.
I’ve heard of him, i think he’s the only one in the Coombe who does the manual turning of breech babies? Someone had it successfully done in perinatal when I was in the last time and there was a ton of residents and medical staff observing him.
In public you see the consultant or one of his team doctors. In my case I had so many appointments in the hospital I knew my entire team which was nice as it was one of them on call when I actually gave birth0 -

They know best really so I'll just do as I'm told. I can't remember if she said she thinks I'll get GD because of the thyroid or if she thinks I'll be tested for it because of the thyroid...I presume the test lol
I would really really love a water birth and have always thought I would, I know it can't happen if the birthing suite with the pool is occupied but any other thoughts of labour make me anxious, water birth seems so appealing.0 -

I’m not throwing up often enough for it to be a concern (once/twice a day) but I feel awful all the time and am having to force myself to eat. Then I feel super full for ages even if I’ve only eaten a little bit and by the time I’m hungry I want to hurl again. Got up early today to have breakfast peacefully and have time to sit in the room and let it digest for 45 minutes before heading to conference. What happened? Brushed my teeth on the way out the door and barely had time to turn to the toilet before it all came up. Spent the morning miserable and ended up asking a legend of a barman for dry toast at 11 which got me maybe two hours of relatively calm tummy.
Ugh, I feel your pain. Could you ask your GP for Cariban (or some other anti-nausea medication?) I had a relatively decent week last week, up until Saturday night when I was sick. Then all day Sunday, about 5 or 6 times, nothing lasted more than an hour in my stomach, then Monday morning when I went into the hospital after throwing up twice.
I ended up in for the day being rehydrated, getting an anti-emetic shot, and a prescription for Cariban. It's bloody expensive (€45 a week! :eek:) but I'm functioning much better since I got it. Even when I felt "ok" before, that was compared to my stomach being in pain and cramping and wanting to get sick. Now my stomach is almost feeling normal, and I feel like I can face healthy food again. Huzzah! It's been a good 6 weeks since I could look at an apple. :rolleyes:Ok thanks that's some good experience to hear of, I suppose it just surprised me that the Domino scheme was immediately off the table because of the thyroid.
Pants, I was hoping to ask about eligibility for the Domino scheme too, but I think there may be a potential thyroid issue. Won't get my hopes up so. 0 -

Are you not signed up for the drug payments scheme? Or is it not eligible under that?0 -

Hmmm this may explain why the info leaflet in the box was in Spanish!
