20 year old wife looking for young buddies who are ttc! Update: 4 healthy babys born!

[DG1984]

Sorry I haven't been around too much lately. Work is crazy busy. Real estate really picks up in the summer time, which means we're swamped

Today it's not so bad, so I'm actually able to catch up with everybody here

How's everyone doing? I'm 15 weeks now and hope to book our gender scan in August before we go away on vacation so we can buy some souvenir clothes for the baby while we're gone

wow 15weeks! time goes so fast lol im 8 weeks on monday woohoo! how are you feeling now>? any symptoms? and i have my 11 week scan on ther 18th of august! i wanna find out the sex too when im about 20 weeks i think!

I still have really bad morning sickness. I'm trying not to complain, but my doctor thought it should start going away soon and it hasn't slowed down at all Not throwing up as much in the morning, so I guess that is something.

Going to call my doctor today as he wasn't in last week to try and book our gender scan before we go away next month. I'm told that by week 16 they may be able to tell....I can't wait, we are dying to know!!

Do you guys plan on finding out?

Had to buy my first set of maternity clothes over the weekend...everything I own officially doesn't fit. Everyone looks at me now and can tell I'm pregnant...I will take a pic and show you my bump

Hope everyone else is doing well. I feel so sick today, wish I could go back home and crawl into bed

 

[youngwife20]

aww sorry your sickness hasnt subsided, i dont mind the sickness i puked a few times today but when i go a few days without sickness i worry hehe so i prefer to feel sick lol. its a bit hard when i have a long journy on the bus and trains each morning to work lol but worth it hehe , and aww cant wait to see your bump 4 more weeks before i hit the 12 week im so excited hopefuly it will fly by i will try not to think about it lol if i come on here like once a week il not think about it to much ehehehe , let us know as soon as u find out

We go for our first appointment at the hospital's maternity clinic on July 19th...doctor's office said we can book the scan through them, and we will probably be booking it for the second week of August (they do it between 18 and 19 weeks). The ultrasound we had on June 23rd showed that our baby only has a 1 in 87,500 chance of having down's syndrome (which is great, they say if it's 1 in 150 or less you have a tiny chance) so we're pretty excited. They also confirmed my due date being December 29, 2011

 

[youngwife20]

Wow that's so exciting and such great news!!!! I'm so happy for u!!!

do they do testing for downs synddrome? i know my mom had it but it was because i was born when she was 40, i didn't know they did it nowadays. i was hoping they would and i could test for all that stuff

They have to do testing for down's within 11 to 14 weeks, and not after or before. They did mine when I was 13 weeks.

Went to the hospital and spent about an hour at the maternity clinic. They asked a bunch of questions, checked my blood pressure, etc. and they even let us hear the baby's heartbeat!!! (It was 145---they said that's really good!)

FINALLY, our gender scan is booked wooohooo!!!! August 3rd, I can't wait! I think it's a boy, and have had this instinct for a while now.

How's everyone else doing??

 

[alli.s]

have any of you lovely ladies tried conceive plus? i'm buying one bottle to check it out for next cycle

 

[Josefin]

I'm doing fine MS is gone and so is my apetite. But it was the same when i expected my son so I'm not too worried about that. Next week I will get to hear the babys hearbeat! And 5 days later, 12wk scan! And also checking for down's. I'm 10w & 5d pregnant now Time is going so fast now!

Glad to hear your MS is gone! I think mine is slowly making its exit too

I'm in the same boat I am 22 and my husband is 24, we're newly weds. We are TTC our first baby and we're going onto our fifth month! Ugh! I could definitely use a buddy close in age that is going through the same thing.

Awww congrats!!! When did you test? I'm sure your OH will be thrilled. Try not to stress, I know it's hard, I was like that too, I think naturally we all are at the beginning.

My morning sickness felt like it was finally going away...haven't really been sick for about 3 or 4 days, but I ended up throwing up this morning and now I feel awful. But at least it's friday.

I'm really comfortable with the doctors and nurses at the maternity clinic at the hospital, I know I will be in a great environment when I go into labour. That's a scary thought to be talking about labour. It's barely sunk in that I'm pregnant lol!

this is amazing news. and i am sure he will come around after you tell him the good news! he may have just said that just so you dont feel the preasure of ttc. im sure he will be fine and let us know how your apointment goes. and try not to worry so much as time goes by you learn to relax more , just enjoy every minute of it!
