Thanks ladies...i feel so awful for being upset. If ahe would have been given another name i would be in a much better place but i feel like my hopes and dreams were just crushed. ..like if i can't use that name then it cant be a girl. My mother would love a grand daughter too and i feel awful i couldn't give that to her .
Trimester wise i thought it was 13 weeks...however my ticker says 2nd trimester At 12 weeks. Weird.
So sorry Rosie. That is tough. And I also hear ya on not feeling good. Aside from the pregnancy stuff, I have had two wicked colds in the past two weeks and I am just wiped. I haven't exercised since Christmas because I'm just too tired and sick all the time. BLAH!
Good on ya for not getting the gender results Keshet! It's a scary time and I know the feeling of having your dreams at your finger tips. Good luck to you:)

Rosie, can you take the name anyway?
No the name is very uncommon and we are first cousins and see each other a lot and i hate having my kids have the same names as others. I went upstairs and cried into my pile of girl clothes that were all meant for her by that name. Guess i should give them to their little girl.
Hugs Rosie[emoji20][emoji8]. I'm sure you will find an even better name that you can't imagine right now.
I can offer up my name for you to use, it is uncommon. I'm the only one in the county I live in and the only female in my state.
Loyal
I have always liked it, both the meaning and being different from everyone else.

Truth be told, I have only met one other female with my name, and she is two years older than me. We were very much alike- it was nice! She had never met another female with our name either!
There you go for uncommon!

My midwife borrowed me a Doppler and I heard the heart beat for the first time just now!!! [emoji176]So reassuring! Quick and steady at 182[emoji5]️

XX omg!!! Yay your Pg!!! Sorry to crash your thread ladies. I've been laying low. 9 weeks today and feeling tired and nausea comes and goes. Today it was here all day.
Hope you feel better Mars! You are apart of our due date group- you're not crashing!

Xx-I hadn't even missed my period before I was getting waves of nausea. Weeks 4 & 5 I would feel icky in the mornings, better from 10-2, then the headache and nausea would return. At 6w it's constant nausea.... I am happy to have symptoms, but I hate feeling so nauseous all the time.
Rosie- I'm so sorry your name was taken out from under you. I've been having that fear as well. My sister is due 10 weeks before I am. She isn't sharing her names, but as soon as I told them I was pregnant again I made the names I like known. , hopefully to avoid that scenario.
I am debating doing the 10 week blood test. Part of me is dying to know that everything is ok and if we have a boy or a girl. The other part of me is scared that something is wrong and I will hear "it's a boy!" For the third time....

Dh refused to let me have the blood work done...too much money. So those who can get i say do it!! Sorry you ladies are all feeling so sick. I have close to zero morning sickies right now thank goodness because ds2 was up barfing last night and i got zero sleep and i am still very sick with a cold. Miserable day here!
2boys- that is awesome that your midwife lets you borrow a Doppler! Wish I had one!
Mars- happy to here from you! I have been wondering if you recovered from your horse fall.
Tarasue- sorry you are feeling so nasty! Have you tried the unisom/b6? Maybe ask your dr about it? It helps me tons!
Rosie- sounds like your house needs a break from sickness! I was up most of the night also. Ds2 and ds3 are running high fevers. I started feeling achy yesterday.
Come on spring! We need you to bring good health!!

Thanks Queen. I did recover. Bodies are amazing what they can go through. :)
Rosie hope you feel better soon. It's the worst being sick when you have to look after young ones.
Gah!! Now i have the stomach flu again. Enough of this!!!!!!
Oh no Rosie! Your little one has high jacked your immune system! I got sick with everything with DS2.
Hang in there honey! I'm [emoji120]the second trimester brings good health and a strong immune system!!

Anyone else's skin terrible? Every day I have a new blemish or two... I don't remember this with my previous pregnancies. My nausea has eased up a bit today, which makes me nervous. Monday was awful! Yesterday was better and today I can function again. I have another ultrasound on Friday, hopefully there is a good strong heartbeat then and I can relax a bit.

Count me in for the the terrible skin! Not cystic acne, (Thank God!), like I had with my boys! I'm getting the small comedones associated with dry skin. My oily skin is drying up! I'm not used to this!
FX Tarasue that everything is ok!! How many weeks are you now?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I will be 7 weeks on Friday.

My skin is definitely extra oily and my hair looks awful if I don't blow dry it. Usually I can let it air dry and looks fine.
Last night I started having mild period like cramps. I am 12+1, I am a little paranoid now. I haven't had this cramping since early on. I read that the uterus starts to move up around this time, so I am hoping that's all it is. Anyone else feeling this around 12 wks or remember it from previous pregnancies.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Queen i had a bit of cramping a few days ago but it could have been from being sick. I am sure it is nothing to worry about unless you have spotting as well.
I barely feel pregnant at all. No nausea and no sore breasts anymore. Hopefully everything is okay and its just the 2nd trimester honeymoon starting. I am still horribly sick though...i cant walk up the stairs without needing to sit for 5 minutes afterward. My house is a disaster! I cant wait to be all better.
Yep. With both of my pregnancies. Totally normal. For me, it felt more like a muscle cramp or an overextended muscle not like period cramps. My abdomen felt a bit tighter then too.Quote:

Thanks for the reassurance ladies! One week from today I will have my ultrasound. I am hoping seeing a healthy babe wiggling around will help put my mind at ease:)
Rosie- sorry you can't get a break on sickness! I am hoping a second trimester "honey moon" stage hit me soon. But I would also be super nervous of lack of symptoms like you. I know lots of people that got a big break once the second trimester starts. My yuckies have always lingered a little longer.
XX- do you know when you will get an ultrasound? I know you get bloods drawn next week.
Tarasue- one more day and you get to see your little one again!
Keepthefaith and babyxx have you bought any cute girly clothes yet??

Not sure. I see one of the midwives at my hospital on 4/28. I'm assuming they will let me know then. Or after I get my beta results back.
I'm feeling good about this! I'm still temping until I get my beta results. My temp is still nice and high! Rose higher today!

Hello, all! I've been occasionally lurking but not posting. I'm 12+3 now, and everything is going pretty well, although my allergies are acting up. My OB put me on daily Zyrtec, and it really helps keep the allergy symptoms manageable. I have the NT scan tomorrow -- we're looking for abnormalities of all types, but specifically heart problems that would already be apparent like my last baby. My anxiety level is at an all-time high.
Good luck with your nt scan today srg09cag11!!! Let us know how it goes:)

Here's the little nugget that's making me feel so icky!! Measuring right on 7w, exactly what my guess was considering I'm sure I felt implantation. Heart beat of 142.
This was an abdominal scan, I don't know how ramzi works, although I remember according to ds2 position he should have been a girl. I have a gut feeling it's another little boy, which a healthy, whole baby is my main goal!
I have been feeling better the past few days, probably the biggest reason I'm guessing a boy again. If I was still feeling like I did Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, I may guess it a girl.

Remember, symptoms don't tell you anything! I had a different pregnancy, (similar symptoms in the beginning but different after 9 weeks) and I had another boy!
FX and [emoji120]for a healthy baby. Hoping for a girl for you!!

Sore boobs and nausea has really set in now! And a wondfo HCG test this morning as dark as the control line! Can't wait for my beta results on Wednesday!
I hope everyone else is feeling ok!

Gorgeous scan tara!
Glad your wondfo is so dark xx...that is wonderful! This is totally your sticky bean!
Hi! Just want to joint the club, I'm due in September. After 3 boys, my early u/s said girl, but I still don't believe it completely! :oops:
This was even a whoopsie baby, we were actually going to go HT this summer. So I've had a couple of really stressful months, I've been pretty close to having a mental breakdown! :nails:
Congrats Claire! What a great oops!
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Welcome Claire! How awesome! I'm Xing everything that this is your girl!
When is your next scan?
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I have spent the last week fighting a very brutal sinus cold and yesterday I was blessed with another cold, so it seems! I am so run down and just totally worn out- to top it off this is week 10. The week I miscarried last pregnancy and I am so stressed about everything, including the NIPT that will be done next week. I really just need a bit of a break- I have been working like crazy trying to pay off some debt and with DH working 13 hours a day I am it! Mom, chauffeur, full time nurse, and a lousy wife who is so tired and burnout we haven't had sex in a LONG time. Like almost a month. I am just so blah-nausea and fatigue plus what seems like a chronic cold aren't exactly preludes to an orgasm.
Anyway! That is my rant- I hope none of you feel as awful and out as this.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Aw honey! I just want to give you a hug! I sure hope you get over your cold soon. I don't think there is anything worse than being sick when pregnant!
I'm sure your DH understands and it sounds he may be too tired to!
I'm praying and have good feelings that this baby growing inside of you is healthy and your DD!

Are you doing MaterniT 21 again? I'm leaning on doing that too or asking which ones they offer at my hospital.
Will you still get the NT scan and scan at around 20 weeks? That is what they recommend for me, since I'm 35.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Yes I am doing the MaterniT test again. They offer a less extensive panel called InvisibiliT that looks for 3 of the most common trisomies and gender. It's the least expensive test I could find- $425

Thanks ladies! My next scan is only in May... So until then I just have to believe it...
2boys, good luck with the nipt next week. Don't worry, I won't tell you how long our dry spell was when my nausea and tiredness was at its worst (way longer than a month!). Poor DH, but I really just couldn't.
Welcome claire i sure hope this is your girl!
2boys...i was feeling that down and out until 2 days ago. All the constant sickies...yuck. dont feel bad about sex...my second pregnancy we went over 2 months! It sucks for them but they understand..we are sick and tired and growing their baby..they can be patient.
Tarasue! What a great scan picture. So glad you got to hear a nice strong heartbeat:) hopefully you can feel a little more comfortable with this pregnancy now.
Welcome Claire! So exciting to think you could have a little girl after 3 boys:). I have 3 boys also, hoping to give them a little sister!
2boys- sorry you are feeling so awful:( wishing your nipt comes and goes quickly. Then you can hear that baby is healthy and you get used to whichever gender you hear. Praying for a healthy baby girl for you dear;)
I am counting down the days until my first scan this Thursday. I don't know what I will do if something is wrong again:( I feel pretty pregnant though, my lower back is doing the weird cracking and popping I usually get right before my spd kicks in. My pubic bone even started to hurt yesterday.
I was doing pretty good about coming to terms with this baby being a 4th son. But then dreamt I gave birth to a baby girl and woke up aching for her. I know dreams can mean nothing, but I hear a lot that you have the opposite of what you dream about.
I feel like come Thursday I will have some idea which gender this little one is. I will be 13+1. At that point I think if it is a boy I will be able to tell. But if I don't see anything that is obvious boy then I might have a chance to hear girl.
We will see.....

Queen-I'm hoping and [emoji120] that everything is well and you see girl parts Thursday!
FWIW, I had dreams I had boys when pregnant with both DS's. I was convinced DS2 was a girl for DH but no such luck!
