°°*°September 2012 Mommies To Be/Due Dates°°*°

Yay! Sorry I haven't been around much, girls...somehow looking at a computer screen makes me tons more nauseous (still true, btw, so I probably won't be around long). Just wanted to update everyone on my appointment today.

^_^ That's my little gummi bear! The OB said he looks "perfect" so far. I was like "Uh, yeah. He's mine, of course he's perfect!" :haha:

I don't have another appointment for 3 weeks, maybe 4. Has anyone's doc talked to them about doing the 11 week birth defect/abnormality testing? I can't decide if I think we should, or not.

Oh! And my official due date is now September 4th.

Awww, adorable! Glad the scan went well :D

Do you mean the nuchal scan and blood tests? I will be getting them as I would like to be prepared for any eventuality and if anything was wrong I'd like to know beforehand. I can see it from both sides though, I understand those who don't get it :thumbup:

Charlotte :hugs: I'm sorry you're feeling so low - my OH winds me up so easily at the moment! Would a warm bath or something help relax you while your OH is watching footie? x
 
I'm not getting it, abnormalities don't run in either of our families, so as long as we're compatible with Rh and everything, I'm not very concerned at all.
 
i bought my first lot of maternity clothes hope its not tempting fate
 
Congrats Rileye, that pic is awesome!

My first prenatal appointment is tomorrow; 8 weeks. I really want to get a scan but I know they probably won't do one. I've still had no MS (slight queasiness I had felt in the evening is gone), I feel like the soreness in my breasts isn't as bad, haven't had to pee as much at night, and I've had minor cramping/lower back pain, so now I'm kind of worried something is wrong. They will probably make me wait until 12 weeks for a scan, but I'm going to ask tomorrow anyway...I figure the worst they can say is no.

Definitely getting genetic screening at my next 12-week appointment. Just the noninvasive blood tests and scan measurements; most women I know do that and only consider the more invasive procedures if there are high risks. While I don't expect any genetic problems it's still something I would like to be reassured about.

Already on 2 daycare waitlists (they are 12-18 months long for infants around here), and looking into where I want to deliver in case I need to switch providers. It's tricky to ask around when I'm still in the first trimester though and haven't gone public yet! It's funny how only very close friends & our parents know, and some strangers know, but no one in between.
 
parker, hope you get your scan!! I know what you mean about who knows - I've told my parents and one friend (and you lot obviously) but then strangers know too if it's for "medical" reasons!

i emailed the two midwife led birthing places where we are moving to, so hoping to hear soon whether anyone there speaks English!
 
Riliye! Lovely scan pic :cloud9:

I think we will be getting the nuchal fold test and the non invasive blood tests :thumbup:
 
We won't be getting any! We didn't last time, no abnormalities in any of our families, so we're not concerned!

Hollywoodmum, that sounds hilarious! Did you use it as an egg cosy? Or a hat for a barbie?
 
Come back boob soreness, all is forgiven! Oh well at least they are still bigger and a tiny bit sore. I'm sure its fine but can't help worrying a little.

Hope everyone is ok :) x
 
I just got permission to use a design by Warwick Davis on a nappy! :happydance:

JellyBeann the egg cosy hat is gathering dust somewhere. I did manage on that fits on C's dolls though - I gave up when I was trying to do mittens - the thumbs ended up so long! I knitted quite a lot, but I was rubbish at sewing it up afterwards! Do you make nappies then?!
