AAAAGGGGHHHH!!!!

Right, now that I've got that scream of frustration out of my system, here's what's going on:

I had a dating scan today. Based on the fact I'm showing already, and my history of menstrating in the beginning of pregnancy and not getting a BFP until at least 5w6d, along with how my tummy actually feels at the moment, my GP was quite happy to say that I was probably 10 weeks rather than 5 weeks. The scan came back at being 4 weeks 5 days (which means I was 4 weeks exactly when I got the BFP on Sunday ). By my calculations, that puts my new due date as May 11th (LMP1 had EDD of 01 April, LMP2 had EDD of 07 May)

That aside, the technician also told me I have a cyst on my overy. She seemed to think that was the reason the GP thought I was further along when she manipulated my stomach.

I knew my dates could change (although I wasn't expecting by quite so much!), so although its frustrating I can cope with that. I know pregnancy can cause random cysts to appear, so that's going to be okay. What's rocked me is how big can this cyst be for there to be such a big difference between the size of Crumb and the size of my stomach?

The technician seemed to think that pregnancy caused the cyst. I'm too shaken to google it.

oh no becca, i hope that it is as teresa thinks, and the cyst will decrease now. how frustrating to be forward and now back though! i fully understand your aaaarrrrgggghh!

big hugs to you! i hope poor little crumb is going to push that big ol cyst out of the way so s/he can grow big and strong!

I thought you were going to say there were two in there!!

Second what everyone else said and biggest

Big hugs Becca! How frustrating. I hope that the cyst disappears of its own accord, or at the very least gives you no trouble.

Does this mean we will see you back in the May mums to be thread?

Hopefully you can write down some questions and see your doc about it soon.

Thank you everyone for your words of support. And thanks for googling it for me, Ann

No idea, all I was told was that there was a cyst on my overy. Not very helpful, really. Still, I made an appointment with my GP for Monday so I'll see if she's got any more information.

I think so!

my pleasure Becca - I know you weren't too keen to so thought I would help you out

Hopefully your dr has some answers and i second what teresa said - write down any questions you have before you go to the dr.
