How can I tell how far along I am? - Page 3

Maybe wait until you have had the scan untill you tell you aunt??
Do you have any other family or close friends around that could also help?
Dont be nervous about telling her, im sure she will be very happy to hear your news

i found out i was pregnant just after xmas and went to the docs she felt my stomach to see if she could feel my uterus. she then reffered me to the midwife who took bloods and gave me a number to phone for my scan. because didint know how far i was i had my scan within 5 days of seeing the midwife

I would wait until you have had the scan so you know how far along you are before tellin your aunt?

If you don't have family who can help, your mw or GP will be able to put you in touch with organisations who can help support you in terms of caring for your aunt.

Good luck with your scan tomorrow, I didn't find out I was pregnant until I was nearly 5 months with my son, it was one hell of a shock as I was only 17 and single. I went to my doctors suffering with constipation, he felt my tummy and told me I was pregnant, he guessed I was 5 months and my scan the next day showed I was 18 weeks so they can get pretty exact dates from the ultrasound.

oh wow that must have been a huge shock hun.
Bu on the up side you didnt have to wait as long as the rest of us haha.
Amazing how correct they were with the dates though. Who would have thought that just having a poke around would be so correct lol

Any update?

Sorry for the delay, I've been a bit all over the place. I'm having a little girl! Totally in shock, according to them I'm 28 weeks! Don't know what that is in months? 6 months? Bad news is she has 'bright kidneys'. They didn't say what that means, I'm seeing consultant next week for more info and another scan. I didn't know about the baby but now the thought of losing her terrifies me. I bet it is because of my eating disorder

Oh wow!! That must have been a huge shock for you!

I am just under 29 weeks and feel like I have been pregnant forever! Lol

I don't know what the kidneys thing mean. I hope you ge some answers soon. Please don't beat yourself up over stuff you did before you found out.

You should pop onto the Third Trimester boards now!
