Hopefully yours is more supportive than mine. They thought we were crazy when we had the third.

My family think I'm insane! :)

A lot of people can't understand the need for four. But I love having a big family. Luckily those who we have already told have not been as shocked because we made a big deal about the fact we were trying for number four since my MC. So I've already had the you must be mad comments months ago :)

Well I will send you all my blue dust :::::: I have lots to share :D

Good luck with the ultrasound maple.

I was reading the comments about family size and laughing at how different it still is in Ireland. I would love to have 5 and all my friends want at least 3-4 kids except 1 who doesn't want any. My eldest sis only has 2 and she got a hard time over that. But I suppose when you come from a family of 6 (dh 7) 5 does not seem like a lot

Oh no 3boys! Praying everything is fine in there. If it helps...my mom fell down a flight of stairs when she was pregnant with me...like 3 or 4 months pregnant and I turned out just fine. Everything will be okay!

Hi ladies! I am back in action. Tendonitis is almost 100% healed up and I am typing and writing normally again. Let's see...what's new...

Well I went in for my first u/s last Wednesday and Thursday. Had to force it because they were not going to do one until I hit 12 weeks but because I had two spotting incidents they went ahead and did it for me. Baby Bear's hr was 156 (which makes me think boy) and implanted on the right (which according to Ramzi also indicates boy).

Here is the u/s photo. Baby Bear is measuring 7 weeks 5 days here which was spot on for when I ovulated.
Attachment 6241

I opted to do the Nucal Scan which means I will see Baby Bear again at 12 weeks. I have dry heaves which may be worse than actually vomiting because I just heave and heave and nothing comes up. Almost like 24 hour motion sickness. I have tried saltines, protein, ginger ale, ginger tea...nothing helps. Water even makes me feel queasy. I just keep telling myself...only 4 more weeks until I start to feel a bit functional, lol.
