ynwa, I hope that's your girl! Beautiful little baby!
Sorry I'm not around more, ladies. I'm just sick sick sick and being on the computer makes it worse.
Wow 93 pages on this thread!! I've never kept up with one like this lol! Awesome group of ladies :) hope everyone is doing well (aside from all the ms I see going on...) Even though I'm pretty sure I'm having another sweet boy, I just scheduled my gender scan for next Monday! I'm super excited, this place comes to your home so all your family and friends can see! She would've even come today, but I just had my nt scan on Thursday so I might as well wait. I'm just sitting here listening to my boys giggle and play together in the hallway, melts my heart and makes me feel better about boy #3!
Your attitude is amazing!!! I've been having a few tough days with my dd and thought for a minute that having 4 boys isn't such a bad idea. Hahaha. My little girls turns 3 tomorrow and my ds is starting to walk really well. Life is good.
And I'm not feeling that sick today. Life is REALLY GOOD!!!
I had a little cry the first night, not because of him being a boy but because of the thought of never having a girl, but I felt so guilty and selfish and I truly am thankful to just be pregnant! My ds2 is the biggest cuddle bug and I love it, and ds1 wanted another brother anyways, although he keeps calling it a her! Plus my best friend just found out she's having a boy too so maybe they can be best friends :) it's still kinda hard to look at cute girly stuff though! Aww happy birthday to your little girl tomorrow!! They sure do grow fast!! DS2 is almost 15 months and still doesn't care to walk on his own lol. He cruises furniture and walks holding my hand, but I guess he's fine with crawling for now ;)
When was your ds born? My little guy is almost 15 months too. He was born July 6.
thanks beachy and threemenandalady! that's really sweet of both of you to say those things.
My morning sickness has hit me hard today, no puking yet but gaggy all day right at 6 weeks..like clockwork..was the same as last time around.
I'm not sure if its a good sign means its a girl again or if my pregnancies are just getting subsequently harder!
they let me change my scan to fri from next weds to see if theres a hb and everything but I don't get to see my normal midwife so that kind of sucks!
I know deep down I just want a healthy baby no matter boy/girl but my DS1 really wants a girl baby, he had as much as a hard time as the rest of us when we lost her and he still asks for a baby girl (I'm not sure where he gets it from because I never talked about it in front of him). He will be 4 in December so I'm surprised he has such a strong opinion about it already!
Mrshonyez- that's awesome that they come to your house!!! I wish there was something like that around here, although I think I'd ask them to come too often LOL..Dh would kill me, i'd spend all my money on scans
Aww I really do hope you get your girl!! Yeah I had never heard of it until a friend told me about it, then it just so happened to be my OB's ultrasound tech anyways who is sooo nice! I wish I could have them come more often lol, but I told DH I wanted the ultrasound for my birthday so it worked out ;). It's only $125 compared to the $150 it was going to be at the first place I was going to go!
Speaking of ultrasounds the place I'm going for my first u/s the ob/Mw do them themselves , no u/s tech. My more extensive ones with the Peri aren't til later. Has anyone had been to an office with no u/s tech? Is it as accurate?
Well way better than all you poor ladies:(
I had it quite bad but eased up quite a bit earlier than my first 2 but there's still always this lingering blech feeling:/
Of course I would have killed to just feel that in the beginning!!
I'm on one diclectin at night and missed 2 nights and learned that that one little pill makes a huge difference!! I got really sick the 2 nights I missed and bad migraines both days!! So back on I went and now I'm too scared to stop lol!!
My nausea has hit hard , already pukey. I feel like its going to be hypermeisis again..
Feeling pukey, too. Soooooooo hard getting ready for work and my son ready for the childminder.
And I've noticed smells today so much more and that's definitely not helping. :(
I've got my first scan tomorrow morning...so nervous...so worried that there will be nothing there, or no heartbeat...i know i shouldnt think that way but im so afraid of our bubble bursting!
Wish me luck girls!!
I don't blame you, I also get a pit in my stomach every time I read it too... even as far along as I am. It's Scary! But in the words of DH: "Just do what you are supposed to be doing and that's all you can do!" I've been stressed lately and I swear I had a scare yesterday..that I won't go into detail about. I just need not to focus on it, and you shouldn't either. Just be happy you are pregnant and enjoy it sweetie!
Thanks butterfly :)
Please tell me I shouldn't worry. Day 2 of not feeling terrible. I'm really starting to worry that baby isn't doing well.
How far along are you?
10w1d. Am I a freak?
you might just be starting to feel better?
you are getting closer to 2nd tri..
do you usually feel better about now?
I'm sure you are ok but I'm all for following your gut instinct..so if you really think something is wrong..can you see your dr??
No. I'm usually sick for almost my entire pregnancy. I rented a doppler and should be getting it today. The UPS truck can't get here fast enough. If I can't find the h/b I will call my doc.
Don't be alarmed if you don't find it, I think at 10 weeks the baby is still pretty small and can find lots of hiding places.
with one of my pregnancies at 10 1/2 weeks i had spotting and my midwifes apprentice couldn't find a heartbeat after looking for a long time..and it was a Sunday, so the next day the dr was open and I went in and they saw baby moving around on u/s with no issues at all and heart beat was fine.
I think what's fueling my worry is reading posts from other ladies on gd that have been going through mc and early loss. I'm so sad for them, and worried that I'm next. I probably wouldn't feel like this if my head was in the toilet.
I'm 12 weeks now and still can't find the hb with my doppler so please don't panic if you can't find it yet. xxx
I know it is so hard not to worry! 3M&AL - I started feeling better around 10 weeks too. I am sure everything is just fine! When is your next dr. appt?
It's the 17th for my nt scan.
If it really is driving you crazy, you could call and say you had some bleeding and are worrying about the baby.
Thats exactly what I was thinking Beachy about a reason to call lol
Sorry then my posts probably don't help!! I do want to say that I had a feeling my whole pregnancy something was wrong, I was really anxious and when I was told it was a girl I didn't even buy a thing , in hindsight I think deep down I knew things weren't right even though all the drs said they were and I was incredibly sick the whole time. I dont know if that helped or made it worse lol sorry. But I think the stress is the worst so try not to worry , I have a feeling everything is fine with you! Just been reading too many stories. I'm the same way, I'm terrified I Have a blighted ovum just based on reading too much
ThreeMenAndALady I had that felt completely fine for a week or so then ms came back and now it's like every other day I think depending what I eat try not to worry sweetie xx
I did that with my son. I had two miscarriages before him so naturally I was finding reasons to check that everything was still okay. Typically your first ultrasound in the UK is at 12 weeks.
My first two lost pregnancies I only got ultrasounds when I started spotting/bleeding so saw the sacs and fetal pole with no heart beat, etcetera each time.
With my son, I didn't know when I got pregnant so they did a scan and found me to be 6 1/2 weeks (which I was pleasantly surprised since that was when my second miscarriage started to happen) and he had a heartbeat. I was thrilled!
Then I started getting paranoid again once I got past 8 weeks, which was my number in my mind to get past. I made up an excuse that I was worried... I just told them I had some "pains" and was paranoid about another miscarriage. They checked him out close to 9 weeks and everything was still good. It was officially the furthest I got!
So, er, make something up if you need reassurance! :)
If I'm not feeling crappy tomorrow I will make something up. It's my dd's 3rd birthday today and we're having a party for her tonight. I feel terrible that I'm worrying about this when my little girl only turns 3 once!!! Thanks for all of your responses. You guys REALLY are the best!!! Wouldn't want to be due date buddies with anyone else.
Ironically I'm feeling crappy all of a sudden!!! Flippin ms. I hate it if I have it, and if I don't!! hahaha
Happy birthday to your dd ThreeMenAndALady.
Try not to worry xx
