Thank you Praying! I am trying not to let it get to me, lol I am surprised it does! I hope your nausea gets better so eating is easier for you :( And I know I force myself to drink water all day long but I'd really rather not haha! I am posting my next belly pic Monday at 12 weeks - this one is gonna be a major difference!!!Quote:

It was in the 170's range, so exciting!
That is wonderful! It is so nice to hear the HB.Quote:

And by the way girls, my tummy is never flat, not even when I was on diet, it's my problematic area, everything else seems to get tinier when I'm on a diet, but my tummy always seems to be bulging a little compared to my hips etc. So it seems to me that it remained how it previously was.

Dreaming, I know I am only nine weeks... But my tummy looks just like yours (I will try and take a pic) and I saw my baby 2 days ago so I know he is fine. Please done worry hun. 10 weeks is still early for some to be showing x
:rofl:Thanks Hun.Quote:

I found videos on youtube where they found the gender of their babies at only 12 weeks! Oh my....I'll be 11weeks 5 days next week when I'll go for my us, but I'm sure that if I ask gynae what the sex is...he'll throw me out of the window :)
I know!!! I hope it'll be reliable enough. Ill probably just worry all the way until my scan on jan 3rd anyway lol but I am excited too because this'll be the first time I hear the heartbeat finally. My doctor didn't try the doppler at my last appt :(Quote:

With sickness and gd dreams i'm knackered. I was just starting to enjoy my teas again to after the le diet but struggling to keep anything down - not that i've been sick yet.
Dreaming i wouldn't worry about the baby - when you think of the size of it at this stage there is pretty much nothing to show, you'll make up for it soon, mostly at this stage its more mummy weight than baby weight or fluid etc - less to loss the other end x
Mrs P! My nausea is the exact same! It's like my tummy knows when it's 8pm lol EVERY NIGHT - SAME TIME!! It actually got so bad it was waking me up and I couldn't get back to sleep, just kept tossing and turning :( SO restless. My doc gave me diclectin - I take 1 at 7:30pm. At about 9-10pm I still have an upset tummy but at least I can sleep!Quote:

As Mrs P, I hear you. I am suffering also. Feeling sick all day though, improves in the evening, but am knackered. Almost in tears at midday because I want to go to bed.. Dreadful! XXQuote:

Oh it seems we're all so messed up. All nauseous and exhausted. And sometimes the exhaustion just comes all of a sudden, like today, I woke up with some energy, did some house cleaning, washed some clothes and put some order in the house, then went in the yard to hang out the clothes and all of a sudden I was just breathless, couldn't even finish hanging out the clothes, as if it was the hardest chore on earth. This all sucks!Quote:

You will get past that sick stage, I promise!
It sounds like everyone has nausea/morning sickness, I hope that you all start to feel better soon. My dr gave me Zofran for m/s and it is wonderful! It works great! I almost feel normal again.
Hummm? That is an excellent question dreaming. I suppose that is why the theory really doesn't work. I think hr tends to vary as the baby gets older? Or maybe it is an average thing...like if the first time you hear the hr it is 170 and the next time it is 162 and the next time it is 166 then one could "theoretically" say the hr is on the high side. I also think they probably tend to be in the same general range each time. It will be fun to find out what the hr was. Let me know!Quote:

Just have to watch it because it is loaded with sugar and some of them have caffeine and other weird ingredients, lol. I can't wait to see your pic cvd! Oh and I am gender scan stalking you too :rofl:Quote:

So happy we also are all starting to near the second trimester!
Partially works, lol. My nausea seems to get worse at night also. It is bad in the am and pm and moderate during the day. Matter of fact it is about that time where they are no longer effective so I usually strip them off at around this time. I have always had a problem with milk unfortunately. I never drink the stuff and when I craved it with DS1, I became incredibly sick every time. It's no wonder he was put on soy, lol. I really don't like to drink CL now that I am pregnant but that was the one thing that kept me drinking before. I guess a Gatorade would be okay huh?Quote:

I feel more thirsty generally with this pregnancy but I am sick mostly once a day so it is probably my body telling me it needs the fluid. I have had MS soooo bad ths pregnancy, praying it ends at 12 weeks :(
Sorry to hear so many are suffering

I've been having daily headaches for weeks now, and it just drains the energy right out of me. :sigh: Anyway...still hanging in there, trying to remind myself that 2nd tri is right around the corner, and I'll hopefully be feeling a bit better soon.
cvd, I didn't realize you live so close to me! You said your early gender scan will be in Niagara Falls? I live about 20 min away from NF (the American side)! What day is your scan? How far along will you be? I scheduled an early gender scan too, it's on December 16th and I'll be 15 weeks. Can't wait! ;)
Hope everyone else is doing well and enjoying the weekend! :)
