~ 2012 July Babies ~

[RNTTC2011]

I think the only reason I have lost any weight is cuz I stopped drinking! Have had a couple bouts of nausea but nothing comes up. Still just bigger (need a new bra already) bb's, some cramping but much less this week. Feel dizzy sometimes but then passes. Definitely hungry but didn't eat very much the last couple weeks cuz nothing had any flavor=yucky. Oh and soooooooooo tired!

 

[MySillyGirls]

I hear ya on the stop drinking! Unfortunately, I have made up my calories in other ways.

 

[RNTTC2011]

Well, my weight loss was short lived. My taste buds are back and since food tastes good again I have carbo loaded today. been so tired at work today and still have 4 hours to go of 12 hour shift. Can't wait to go to bed!!! Lol!

 

[MySillyGirls]

LOL! the holidays sure don't help either. cookies, cupcakes, cheesecake samples at the grocery store, hot cocoa, mmmm... I am hungry and going to forage for my pre-dinner...

It's been a good discussion for us in the June thread. Tip: save yourself the effort in trying to understand your u/s pic, just ask the tech when you get it done!

Well we had our early scan today and everything seems to be going fine. Saw the little heartbeat flickering away and measuring at 8 weeks + 4 so just about perfect !!

 

[GreenFingers]

Conina that's wonderful news x x

 

[Conina]

Ironically we also received our date for the "proper" booking in appointment, and it says we might have a scan then also - it's next Thurs, so we may have completely wasted our money!!

 

[RNTTC2011]

Is the reassurance really a waste of money?? Two scans in two weeks is great! I would love that just to see how much progress the baby has made. Hope your next scan is great too!!

 

[Indigo77]

Anyone going in for the NT scan soon?

 

[klsltsp]

Yup I'm going in for mine on Wednesday

 

[GreenFingers]

I have to wait until 29th for my scan, they do dating and NT at the same rime. boo hoo....too long to wait! I will be 13 weeks and I am dying to tell everyone now!

 

[RNTTC2011]

Had my first appointment with scan today! It was so cool to see the heartbeat and the doctor told me that everything looked perfect. It is so reassuring to see that something really is going on in there!! I wish I could post a pic, but my scanner is making it too dark. Needless to say that the LO aka "smudgey" is measuring pretty close at 7w1d. However, she pushed back my EDD to August 3rd. The proper dating won't be done until something like 19 weeks when they can really see everything. Anyway, I'm so excited and can't wait to tell my family tomorrow and his family on Tuesday!!!

I decided to go with an amnio right away (when I am 15-17 weeks?). With my age I just want to know and not play the numbers game of 1 in ??? and if that number says one thing then another number will say another. With the amnio I will just KNOW. It's a personal choice but I am pretty good with it.

 

[Indigo77]

My NT scan is on Tuesday. I hope we get a good result so I don't have to do the amnio.
