Thx angel gnite xoxo

 

[bazzb]

I got my cross hairs!!! But I tested it out if my temp goes down tomorrow I loose them lol! Why do I do that to myself

 

[mannymoo]

ooo - fingers crossed Bazz! Keep those temps up! We want the 2WW to begin!!
A1983 - can't believe you are already at 13 1/2 weeks. Have you told everyone now?
And angel - you're an olive! Yipeee!

My dizziness seems to have disappeared again. My ears have been blocked so I think it was an ear-related thing but feeling fine now. And DH finally got to feel baby kicking this morning (even though I've been feeling it for a month already). He is so impatient that he always puts his hand on my belly for 5 seconds and then gives up. But today Baby kicked at just the right time.

xx

 

[bazzb]

Hi Ladies,

Hope you are all doing well!

Bazz - yey for your crosshairs, I hope your temp stays up tomorrow! Fingers crossed!

Manny - that must be such an amazing feeling, I cant wait to feel that sensation

1983 - glad everything with your scan went well - your in your second trimester - how amazing!!!

We had a scan last week and the little one was measuring 2 days ahead so I am 9+5 now! I am just willing the weeks away until the 12 week scan! They found a subchorionic haemorrhage next to the sac at my last scan. They said it was only small and should resolve by 12 weeks but naturally I am still worried - there's always something hey?!

I have been quite lucky with my symptoms this time round - only a few moments - one in tesco's earlier actually! Its funny but I had more in my first pregnancy when there was nothing in the sac! Crazy.

 

[bazzb]

starry I am very glad your scan went well Xx

Manny it will be my first also and for hubby as well if i get pregnant again

Hello everyone!

Bazz... Still waiting it out? Bloody hell u r patient woman!!! Lol. Got everything crossed four, keep doing that baby dance!

Manny - my hubby got his first feel this week too! I first felt it Xmas day, and the other night it felt really strong so I said "give me ur hand" and he felt for ages and ages and then finally felt it! He was thrilled. He or she always seems to be active at night, about 9 o clock. Hubby has started asking me "has it not kicked yet?" every night when it gets towards that time! The other night we were at a lovely restaurant and we were taking about baby names... And I've liked Jessica from the start (if its a girl), and I was saying I'd put it with a short middle name like Mae.... "Jessica Mae". And as I said that name out loud I got a real strong kick!! I said "I think the baby likes that one!"

As with the rest of u this will be our first baby. It's all feeling more real the further we go along... I'm 19 week now. 20 week scan a week today. And we bought a pram the other day... So certainly feels more like its actually going to happen, and we r going to bring a baby home in a few months time...

Nice to catch up on where everyone is at, hope everyone well. Keep them buns nice and warm, those of u in UK I hear we r expecting 10cm of snow on Friday!! Xxx

Bazz - what happened to temps today?

Mrs its so good to hear you are doing well. You definitely need a ticker so we can track your progress! Love the name Jessica Mae. DHs cousin just had a little girl and they called her Jessica. DH was devastated because he had his heart set on that name. We're trying to work through names at the moment but haven't come up with anything yet. I like Tyler James if its a boy (James is DH family name) and so far the only girls name we both like is Megan but its not my favorite. I think there could be some long chats over names in the next few months. Are you going to find out gender next week? And what pram did you go for? There is too much to chose from...

Hope all you ladies are well today.

 

[bazzb]

my temp dropped below cover today so i lost my cross hairs
Im hoping its just a fallback rise but i guess time will tell...

Glad you are doing well Mrs Xx yes I agree you need a ticker....

Manny how are you feeling hun, no more dizzyness I hope XX

 

[A1983]

I know it's freezing Starry!! Where in UK are you? Im Essex bound (not born and bread ;-)) but hopefully moving to Bath before the baby arrives!

Awww I cant wait to feel movement few weeks left to go, a month maybe. Btw I played my baby's hb I recorded to my pregnant friend who said its whoosyness sounds as though it's the placenta and not hb...so I had another go last night and I can tell the difference in sounds but it is hard! Plus placenta only went to 125bpm whereas 'hb' went to 150 so I must be hearing it. I hope so as that's the whole point of the doppler. ..to offer reassurance by hearing baby's hb!

Bazz did you take temp at same time etc?

 

[A1983]

Ps im looking at prams by Hauck...lovely 3 in 1's

 

[bazzb]

there are some good youtube videos out ther regarding dopplers and the palcenta sounds similar but will be a slower rate! i think you've go it it hun

and yes i took it at the exact same time... arghhhhh

 

[A1983]

Yes ive just had another go and recorded it to show the 2 different sounds so you are right Bazz the placenta is slower, around 120

Well I know temping is helping you direct/guide you in some way atm, but you know how I feel about those sticks!!! Mine would be up and down at various times yet I knew things were 'working' as I looked for other signs! What does your oh say about it all? Bet he can't wait for you both to spend some time relaxing together my oh tried to stop me using my phone during our travels last year as I was Google Google Google! We were away for 6 months though. . and I am/was neurotic when it came to ttc!

 

[bazzb]

my hubby wants me to throw out my thermometer!! LOL

I am so nerotic when it comes to ttc..i feel my body is not working properly

 

[mannymoo]

Bazz I'm sorry your body just isn't cooperating. This must be your longest cycle yet - how frustrating! Are you still taking Vitex and Soy? I definitely think you should ask your doc about clomid or even just bcp for a month. I've heard it helps a lot. On the up-side, have you booked your holiday yet?

A1983 - I would get whooshing sounds on both sides by my hips which I presumed was my arteries. But I think because my placenta is at the back, that sound never interfered with my doppler. I would definitely say 150 is the heartbeat. Does your doppler have a record feature? I want to record my heartbeat because apparently its soothing to play back to baby after birth. But not sure how to do it.

 

[A1983]

Hi manny, no it doesn't but I use my phone to record and I THINK it's the maternal hb the baby finds soothing after birth to listen to. Aren't dreams horrible, think I was over hot but was dreaming oh and I were having huge rows and I kept saying stop it we have to think of the baby, and then my pantyliner was full of you know what and also when I wiped. I forced myself to wake up...now just want to cuddle oh who is at work so cuddling bump instead ill leave the radiator off tonight!!

 

[A1983]

Ps I have a posterior placenta too...means we'll feel more kicks and see elbows and feet protruding later on
