Due in March/April/May 2013 Roll call!

Thank you ladies you are all so lovely!! I think other ppl have made it worse for me today by saying stuff you know specialy like well all u want is healthy.....I know that I'm not stupid and thats all I want! I've just seen 2 ppl wiv 100% girl votes turn out to be boy today so thats made me less confident I need tomorrow over with so I can get on and enjoy my pregnancy!

Spinning, my nanny died from a dvt and my mum lost my sister because of one, the Dr said to me if I had of been over weight or smoked tied in wiv family history they would have put me on it now but I only have 1 risk factor at moment apparently family history and having number 4 puts me a greater risk? I asked if there was a blood test they could have but was basically ignored!!!
Fx we all have our Desired genders in there and if not I hope we all have the strength to get through it and enjoy our pregnancies because we all know what ever happens we will love them with all our hearts xxx

Fingers crossed for your scan tomorrow Spinning, sending you a big hug xx

Ah yes hope your scan goes well tomorrow spinning :) xx

thanks everyone.
is that a normal ob that said that or a peri?
I have to say with my test results (anti cardiolipin antibodies) my ob was ready to throw me right on lovenox (heparin) but when I went to the peri he said he wanted to redo the tests as even though I had two grandparents with histories of DVTs, he said the shots were not risk free. I actually was insisting on them more than him bc I was scared of another loss but he was being more conservative bc of the negative side effects they can have which I do appreciate. my other concern was being on lovenox I couldn't deliver at the birth center, with just baby aspirin I can (my plan for the last baby was hb but after what happened I just don't think its the right choice for us now)
I think the tests they ran are anticardiolipin antibodies and lupus coagulants and something else. its just blood work, not invasive.
If they think it's that much of a concern do they have you on baby aspirin for now? I would insist on the tests or ask about taking the baby aspirin (which my peri and mw confirmed is pretty risk free) , just from a BTDT standpoint..not trying to scare you!

Thank you ladies, all your kind words are very encouraging! I'm so thankful to have a place to come talk about all my feelings, you ladies are amazing. I hope you all get your desired genders!

I hope my attitude is as great as your is if and when I hear boy!!!

And hello ladies!!! Good luck to all that have scans in the next few days. Still very sick here so not much to report.

I too hope my attitude is as great as your MrsHonyez! Congrats on your beautiful boy. He was looking sooo cute in the scan pics!!!

Good Luck tomorrow homebirthing! I know it's a girl ;) you'll see!

So the last time I thought my M/S was over...it wasn't. This time though I think it really might be. It's been about a week since I felt really sick which is the longest break I have gotten yet. I still get a pukey feeling if my stomach gets too empty but it is cured when I eat. Before eating would make me sick so it's a good change!
