Ersu Im sorry your sister is a bitch... Why cant she be happy you are bump buddies?? thats such an awesome thing to share with someone....Im glad that baby looks good and from everything I have heard or been told once you find baby and a heartbeat- like you can see a flicker or the blood moving in the cord and head, chances are that you will have a healthy pregnancy. My sister is struggling with infertility and has been trying to conceive for 4 or more years now and its gonna hit her hard when she finds out I have gotten pregnant again. Its so hard and such a personal decision. With my first I didnt really want family to know until after the first trimester but I was okay with random people like coworkers and friends knowing.. why because their opinions didnt matter to me and I knew for the most part that if I told joe schmo that I was pregnant and then later went on to lose it they would be so uncomfortable talking about it that I would not have to say anything more, but with family I felt like I would expect support and love and for them to want to be with me that I didnt think I could handle being disappointed when they failed to be who I needed them to be.
Its so good that this thread already has so many positive results. Its great..

Hi mwel!

APG I remember waiting doe the phone call of the initial partial results and i was freaking out! All was fine though. Odds are totally in your favor that everything is fine

Girl, you are EVERYWHERE! lol! I like you though so it's all good. Ha!

 

[mwel8819]

Well great news! Baby is measuring a day bigger (7w1d instead of 7w) and the heart rate was around 130-133!


And of course, my sister got all pissed that we announced our pregnancy today. She’s due 3 weeks before me. She can go eff off. I hate that she’s such a bitch about everything.

Congrats! Sounds like a boy

 

[mwel8819]

We told my daughter weeks ago, she’s 4.5 years old and seems to totally get it. I pointed below my belly button and said “inside mommy’s uterus a baby is growing.” We have a kids anatomy book and she understands things like organs and stuff. She talks about “our baby” all the time. She wants a sister but I have a feeling it’ll be a boy. Either way, once it comes, I know she’ll be happy. She’s wanted a sibling for a long time. I think with every kid it’s different. We’ve been talking about having a baby someday for a while, so she’s excited.

We told our 3 year old and she understands pretty good. She also wants a sister but I think it's a boy this time. It will be a miracle if it is though because they don't run in our family. I am craving all different things this time. I will know when I hear the heart rate though. lol! With Gabby it was 170 and I knew!

Taking a shower and then I'll read through and update everything! Hope you're all doing great!

 

[gigglebox]

Mwel you never know! I had polar opposite pregnancy experiences and was absolutely convinced #2 was a girl...nope!

 

[mwel8819]

Gigs- Interesting. I'm not sure if that gives me hope or not but I know I'm really sick right now with ms and I didn't have a lot with Gabby. Maybe this baby is just already the hellion of the bunch.

 

[mwel8819]

Okay ya'll, so what is the best way to tell how far along I am? I know I ovulated on the 6th of May...so is this the date I use because according to that I'm a week less than I would be if I took my LMP date.

 

[W8tingforbaby]

Had my ultrasound today and I’m basically right on track due date wise. The baby has a heartbeat which we got to see on the screen. So cool for sure and makes this so real now. My little rainbow baby is perfect

 

[crusherwife44]

Mwel the doc would just go by the first day of last period or if not sure measure at first ultrasound.
W8ting yay! So fun to see all you ladies already with these ultrasounds. I cant wait for mine

I just worry that they will take the baby too early. It will be a C-section for sure so they will already take it one week early so that would be two weeks early. Maybe they will go by the ultrasound.

 

[Jingles23]

My cycles are all over so I always go by ovulation date. And that always lines up with the ultrasound date. I just tell them I don't know my LMP because they are so irregular. (done that for all 4 and will with this one too)

Just got my beta Hcg back from 5+5 and it was 9800! Also, my thyroid was normal which is a relief. I was hypothyroid during my last two pregnancies and I wasn't looking forward to taking meds again.

Hubby is certain it is multiples. I've had a number of people mention that so I'm freaking out a bit. Hubby has bugged me since baby 1 to name one after him. I said last night that if it was triplets we could. Then he shooed me off so he could pray. Lol!!! I've never seen him this excited for a baby. He normally doesn't get excited till he can feel movement.

 

[crusherwife44]

Mwel theyll still check size of the baby before csection i would imagine to ensure baby is big and healthy enough to see this world. Definitely tell the doc your concerns.
Jingles my hubs is most excited this time too! He is one to never really touch my belly to feel movement but we'll see this time around lol

 

[mwel8819]

Good idea! Thanks!

Jingles, All good news, congrats! I have hypothyroidism so I'm nervous about seeing my numbers right now and I won't go to the doctor until the 11th. :\ I also have a happy hubby. He was nervous the first time around and this time he is really excited. A few people have mentioned multiples to me bc of my dark HPT. It actually pulled the color from the control line to give it to the test line. lol! I'm going to say it was because I was a week late though.

Just saying hi to everyone! I haven't posted for a while, and the thread has been busy I had to check far back to find out that Lexi's Mummy is indeed having twins!

W8ting, so happy for your positive ultrasound experience!

AFM, I was really ill last weekend which felt terrible but also like a good sign things were still going in the right direction. Unfortunately, yesterday I had cramping in my lower back and stomach for about 10 hours, and slightly less nausea and bloating today, and it's making me nervous it'll be another MC. My first MW appointment (and possible ultrasound) is in 6 days - really looking forward to some more concrete answers.
