5 Weeks – EDC 28/05/13


Wednesday, 26 September 2012 (Day 1)

I had my dating scan today. Despite filling my bladder to bursting point (it really hurt to move!), the ultrasound was unable to locate a gestational sac, so after I emptied my bladder we moved onto the transvaginal scan. We located the little “apple seed”, so I am definitely pregnant, however the gestational stem was too small for the computer system to give a definite size in terms of gestational days. The only thing the ultrasound doctor could say for certain was that at this point I am less than 5 weeks pregnant. So, this means that there will be another scan in my future so we can get a definite due date.

One strange oddity that I will mention is the cramps I get that feel like cervix twinges. They’re certainly uncomfortable, and I guess they’re in preparation for when my little darling decides to kick me down there. Today I think they may be a small side effect of the transvaginal scan, but I have experienced these twinges in the last week or so along with the rest of the expansion cramps.
