Congrats on the great scan, Rainbow!

TTC5, glad you are doing better. Hope you can get be up and about soon!

Auroara, PP... sorry you are having such a rough time with the m/s! That sucks. I am constantly in a state of mild ick, but I am okay. I can still eat and function pretty well, and there is no puking or anything. I was way sicker my 2nd and 3rd pregnancies (one was a boy, one was a girl, so I don't think there is anything to go on there!).

Welcome Pinkin! Hope you baby comes on your anniversary--that would be cool!

So I made my appt for the CVS. I will be canceling it if the 12wk scan looks good and there are no concerns.... I will hope that's the case!

Hobbers, any reason why you need CVS? Did i miss this in a diff. part of the thread, and will you find out gender with the CVS, if you do it? I hope you get a good nub shot cuz I really, really want to nub obsess with you and Mocha's 12 week scans!

I am 39, so I am going to get a CVS if my 12wk u/s shows concerns. I won't find out gender, and I am purposely not getting a nub shot at the 12 wk scan... sorry! I had such bad GD last time after finding out I was having a girl at 20 weeks, it ruined the rest of my pregnancy. Since this is my last pregnancy, I want to enjoy it. I also know I will deal much better with having a baby girl handed to me in the delivery room than if I know I am having a girl ahead of time.

Rainbow that is fantastic news!!! Bet you felt so much relief to see that little heart beat!!

Thanks for adding me Mocha!!

I dont really have anything to say about my pregnancy yet except I am still crampy and feeling a bit off already!

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.

thats exactly how I feel my constant nausea is really making me wonder how I am going to get through the next 8 months. Just want to curl into a ball and sleep. Went doctors and they can't prescribe anything unless I am excessively vomiting.

That's exactly why I'm going team green too, Hobbs! I would rather enjoy my pregnancy not knowing gender knowing I could handle the news of a girl easier if she's in my arms than if I have to wait for 20 more weeks!

same for me !

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!)

your little bean looks so cute I can't wait to see mine. I'll be 13 weeks when I see it for the first time. Thats two weeks away. And yeah this pregnancy for me is totally different to my last two.

Totally agree. I'm not finding out the sex this time am too afraid I'll feel disappointed but I know if I do have a girl I will love her all the same when shes in my arms.

And to top off my wonderful weekend my favorite aunt passed away this morning. She has been suffering for while now. She would have been 70yo right around #3 due date. I was suppose to be born on her birthday but my mom used Castor Oil so she could have me 3wks early. My aunt and I were very close and told everyone I was born on her birthday. She always let me take candies from her purse, she made the best fudge and cookies, and she was always fun at the family holiday parties. She lost her first child to cancer at 2yo&2mths, she lost her husband due to a hereditary condition, and 3 great-grandkids who were born at 20&24wk gest.

Hormones and family lose is not a good mix!
