Mocha I am the same right now. I made Veal Meatball Soup with onion, red pappers, garlic, carrot, celery, and kosher noodles... I ate the broth only but it did help my m/s last night. The only protein I can handle are egg sandwiches in the morning.

thx ladies for advice on the SAHM/SAHD situation....I don't expect a spotless house, but I do expect dishes and minor picking up done, you know? I think he's gonna try harder this coming week.
Another gal here that jumped right back to old diet. I eat a very paleo style diet...so the LE diet was like torture! These days I pretty much just crave red meat and salmon. :D
Meat was the thing I missed least on the diet. I missed cheese and bread the most, I think - I'm a big cheese eater!
private early scan booked for Monday when I should be 7+0!!
petrified we won't see a heartbeat
That's exciting you that you have your scan booked for so soon, rainbow. Sending you healthy bean vibes....
Today I am exactly 11 weeks, which is the day I had my m/c last time around. I'm feeling pretty good though - I heard the heartbeat this morning, and my 12 week scan is a week and a half away. I'm hoping I'm finally going to get out of the first trimester. I can't wait! This has felt like the longest first trimester in history - beginning last September.
Hi girls sorry for being quiet I am really sick with the flu :(
Rainbow, only a few more days. I feel the same, I will relax a bit when I hear the heartbeat. Hope it goes well!
Mocha, it must be nice hearing the heartbeat all the time :)
5, sorry you have been so sick. We are all germy in our house at the moment, seems to be going around in circles. Anyway, hope you are feeling better soon.
Rainbow, FX everything goes well at your scan!
Mocha, I hate the first trimester. I bet you are feeling relieved to be leaving it and moving on! Hope all goes wel at your 12wk scan. Having a doppler to hear the HB must help keep you reassured. :)
TTC5, sorry you are sick! Has the bleeding stopped? Are you still on bedrest?
All the people talking about gong back to their old eating habits... I have been eating total crap! I was eating much healthier on the HE diet. Oh well. Today I made a chocolate cake.... going to try not to eat it all in one sitting! :suprise:
Sorry you're sick, TTC5!
Yeah, I get to join y'all in here! DD right now is Nov 1, 2012! Hoping for a sticky bean this time!
Mocha - dopplers are fantastic aren't they? won't be long until your scan now!
TTC5 - hope you feel better soon
Yahmama - congratulations!!
still feeling petrified about the scan, hoping I can keep busy to distract myself.
Hobber, I'm with you. I was eating way better on the HE diet. Now I eat icypoles, hot cross buns and whatever I can find!
Yahmama, yay! We're only a few days apart.
YAY!!! Congrats on the BFP!!Quote:

I guess that is a girl result? Not surprising, really. I know my sway didn't work. I am just trying to concentrate on the baby being healthy. I hope everything is okay at my 12 wk scan. Still need to decide if I am getting the CVS as well.
it's a pH test... if you've gone back to your pre-sway diet it's very likely that this test would say an opposite!Quote:

I am calling the Dr. who does the CVS tomorrow. I think I am right on the edge of the time when they do them (9 weeks is the earliest I think). I might schedule the appointment, and if my 12 wk scan is suspicious, then do the CVS; and if everything is okay, then cancel.
I agree with rainbow. It is merely a ph test, so your diet controls it totally! And if you're like me i went back to my normal eating habits as soon as our attempt was over!Quote:

7.5hrs to go until my scan. Petrified!! dreading there being no baby/no heartbeat again
welcome, pinkin! what's your due date?
Yahmama, I am due October 27th :) It's nice to be able to go off my LNMP for my due date this time. With both my girls I ovulated late in the cycle so whenever someone asked when my last period was I always had to get them to adjust my due date.
pinkin, congrats and welcome!
rainbow, hope the scan goes well :)
Hi Rainbow, My dd is the 3rd of november which is our wedding anniversary... wounder if the baby will come on that date!!!
Thanks for the kind welcomes!!
Rainbow, good luck with your scan... I understand why you would be scared!! But i bet you hear some great news!!
Welcome to all the new ladies joining us!! congrats on your BFP! hope everyone else is fine and well, I got good news I finally got a hospital to have my baby! and my first booking appointment is in two weeks. I'll be 12 weeks by then which is not ideal but at least I'm going somewhere now! my first scan will be the following week when I'll be 13 weeks. My GP is still apparently trying to refer me but instead I self referred myself online last week while I was waiting the outcome of my appeal which was a no in the end. So to save time I self referred and got my letter today. If I hadn't done that and relied on my GP I'd STILL be waiting for an appointment!
hope everything is fine and well, so what activities are we busying ourselves with on red rest?? ::bigsmile:Quote:

Bumblebee - I'm glad you got a hospital!
Rainbow - good luck with your scan - I'm sure everything will be fine :HH:
Attachment 1580
So relieved! baby had a heartbeat and apparently a strong one <3
she dated me at 6+5, and when I asked about the placenta location she said it was too soon to tell but when pushed said it was in the centre... although in the picture it's very much on the left so think it's a boy! (the baby is the blob on the left, sac on the right)
I'm so happy your bean is healthy. It looks nice and cozy in there :HH:.
rainbow, beautiful picture! And i wouldn't worry about gender quite yet, though when I saw my 8 week bean on the screen, I felt totally deflated like I knew I was looking at another boy. Now that it's been 3 weeks since scan, I am feeling happy again that it may be a girl. Now, I'm back to my gut feeling that it's going to be a girl, only I don't know if I'm going that way again because of a real "gut" or because of my "desire."
I figure I rather dream about it being a girl while I still can. I can't believe in about 9 weeks I'll find out if the baby's a boy or a girl.
I don't want to be dispapointed if I hear boy, because he will be my child, and i will love him so much, but I know it will crush me some if I hear boy. I guess this is unavoidable and a risk we all take by swaying for our DG....
Glad you're doing better TTC5 (not about flu, but the bleed.) I bet you'll be glad when bedrest is over!
Nausea and I am not getting along well at all. Will be so glad when the first trimester is OVER! C'mon next week and 12 weeks...though last time I didn't feel really good until about 13-14, I am just glad I am getting closer to the end of it!
Great news, rainbow!!! So glad there was a strong heartbeat!
Congrats to the new moms who got their bfp's!
I had a horrible weekend and I am still having problems. The only good thing is DH was home to watch the boys. I have really bad non stop m/s, constipation since last thurs, can barely eat anything, and to top it all off I have a sinus cold. I want to curl up in a ball and hide for the next 8mths.
thank you everyone :) I actually had a realisation that the bladder was shown on the top of the screen so perhaps the view was upside down... the device was constantly positioned on my left side and angled down too so maybe that means something else; either way - too many uncertainties to think more about Ramzi and I have hope of pink again until the dating scan at least ;)
MW appointment tomorrow, and bloods taken on Wed... feels like it's all moving forwards now and hope I can start to enjoy pregnancy (with nausea!)
this pregnancy feels quite different to my last one, and the one before that was different again. Anyone else finding this? (if only that meant something too!)
For me this pregnancy has been pretty similar to ds3: mild nausea, craving fruit... The only difference is that I think my boobs are more sore this time around.
sounds a bit like mine.. mild nausea (first pregnancy I had no nausea (unless I was around strongly scented things), second pregnancy I threw up every day), but have gone off most food and can only seem to eat salad and chocolate at the moment
