Roll-call!! Due June/July/August 2013

[Atsaukina1]

hi ladies! Just thought i would pop in for a quick update
Firstly congrats to all your growing babies and to the ladies that got thier prefered gender!!!
And sorry to the ones who didnt!
So i camped for the week i bled for 5 days but not bad cramping ect stopped bleeding a few days before we came home still got to enjoy a little bit of our time away!
went to doctors when we got back he was happy with what i told him so no need for dnc or U/s he said unless i start bleeding again or have lots ofdischarge
ALSO was thinking about what someone said about lots of miscarriages i think its just the case that noone tells you if they have an early m/c but on here we do....as at the school or even with friends they dont tell u till the 12 weeks
ANYWAY i was VERY unsure about going again and as u can see from my past m/c s i have waited inbetween
so this time we have decided to start trying asap and like my previous 6 pregnancies i hope it only takes 1-2 cycles as if it takes longer we may have to put on hold as we have an over seas holiday next year to scatter my husbands fathers ashes,,,,anyway have prob had the worse 2 months of my life my fil dying and the m/c so bring on lots of positive happy vibes~~~

sorry was so long

you said he didn't do an us? how far along are you? wouldn't he do us for hb? or blood test. lots of people bleed and do not lose baby. sooo sorry. I know you want to try again, they have lots of good books at the library about fertility diets(def. would not do girl sway if had history of ms) as you need to get your body strong and healthy. big hugs

Hi so had u/ s last week that confirmed I had lost the baby then went away came back and didn't need u/s as he thinks I had a complete natural m/c x
I have fallen preg 5 out of 6 preg first go .... I mean literally one time and preg this last time took tried for 1 cycle and fell preg the 2nd so no trouble with falling preg at all.... I haven't swayed girl strongly with any of my pregnancys i honestly think its just one of those things as I had trouble free preg for the 1st 3 and just bad luck the last 3.... We have decided to try again if the same thing happens and I still want to try I will get testing done but as for this time we won't as to go through all of that when we have 3 chn but fingers crossed next ones sticky and I won't have to make that decision

It's hard to believe that I was itching to have an elective gender scan a few weeks ago, ladies. I'm 9 days away from my scan and I'm so wracked with nerves that I swing between wanting to get it over with and wanting to put it off forever. I was driving to work this morning and the song "Shake it Out" by Florence and the Machine came on the radio. That's a great tune and I was tapping my fingers along until these lyrics came along: "Well, I'm damned if I do and I'm damned if I don't so here's to drinks in the dark at the end of my rope. And I'm ready to suffer and I'm ready to hope, it's a shot in the dark and it's right at my throat." That pretty much captures how I'm feeling right now and my eyes welled up with tears. I've spent hours obsessing over u/s pics, this is the first thing I think of when I wake up and the last thing I think of before I fall asleep. I feel like I'm faking normal behaviour during my days, trying to look like a sane and rational person who isn't consumed with something that is so out of her control. I'm a total headcase these days and I don't know who else I can tell.

Maple - Wow! Identical twins. What type are they?

Hi Bama!

Yes, identical twins. Im so anxious! I'm not sure what they are called correctly, they share a sac, but are separated by a sheath - if that makes sense? So they are not the high risk category?

Hope you are doing well?

Oh Jadis - sounds like your driving yourself mad! I think I will be in the same boat when I am so close to my u/s. I guess you don't have to find out the gender... Is that an option? Would a birth surprise be better or worse I wonder? You may just get lucky you know, you might hear girl! How awesome that would be. If it is a boy, you will come to terms with it. But there will be a fair bit of turmoil to deal with. It is scary, I get it.

Its my last chance. There is no way I am having 5 kids. The thought of having another 2 boys freaks me out, but I really think its a likely scenario.. Honestly I am so anxious about these twins, that I feel sick, although its not totally gender based, I have a bit of GD already. So sad, wish I could just enjoy being pregnant after all the time I tried to get pregnant!

Best of luck for your u/s. We are here for you! XX

Thanks..... Was just updating atsaukina 1 as don't think she read first post so it wouldn't have made sence )

[Atsaukina1]

sorry oh and I wasn't suggesting that swaying girl caused it but that if i had history of miscarriage i wouldn't do it as i would want to build up all my fat and protein and get super healthy which even though i did the girl diet i do not think it is the healthies thing. crossing fingers for a super sticky bean for ya

I think they are called mono/di twins. They are separated by a membrane but share a placenta? Mine were thought to be mono/mono twins which are high risk bc we did not see a membrane between the babies.
