- By Autumn_21aI have my dating scan tomorrow and even though it’s my second, I can’t remember how much water I need to drink.

- By Donna12audJust for a spot of fun. My previous two pregnancies followed the trend of “if your babies heart rate is above 140 it’s a girl, below it’s a boy.” Has anyone else followed this trend? This time the babies heart rate is 128bpm so let see if it’s a boy ;)110Advertisement | page continues below

Although I’m not vomiting, I did have a little cry today because of the ‘ick’ feeling. 6w2d and I’m just waiting for this trimester to end.

- By JackySimsjI have 2 children and their heart rates were always within normal range for their gestation. At 8.5 weeks I had my first scan and babys heart rate was only 101bpm, everything I've read says a heart rate that low at 8 weeks is guaranteed miscarriage. Baby was measuring exactly for gestation size. My30

Hi ladies, My scan today has confirmed a missed miscarriage at 8 weeks. I have had 3 healthy pregnancies/babies so this has come as a shock, I've had a feeling it wasn't going to end well as the yolk sac has measured larger than normal although I saw the heartbeat at 6+5 weeks. I'll be talking to m130 - By SylntmummasHi ladies, 1st trimester struggles. I am sooooo thirsty but can't find anything to quench that thirst.

So I’m 7 weeks today And I’d say the last week or possibly two, being touched is excruciating.
