2014 October Rainbows (late Septembers welcome!) (13 babies born!)

[skinnysmrs]

Hey ladies. Saw this today and thought it was lovely. Wanted to share with you all x

 

[GingerPanda]

Awwwww

 

[wbee]

That's beautiful, skinnysmrs, thank you for sharing .

Currently trying to make myself get out of bed and eat something. Just being lazy! Need to calm my hunger and then do some yoga and some walking for the day.

I really can't believe I'll be 6 weeks on Sunday. The 5th week has just flown past but I think that's because I've been so sick. Every cloud and all. I feel bad for wishing the weeks away but I just want out of the first trimester and IN to the second!

 

[GingerPanda]

Agreed! I wanna just skip to when I can feel kicking!

 

[whigfield]

I can't even imagine what kicking will feel like! It's so exciting and weird to think about!

 

[skinnysmrs]

Omg the moment I feel a kick I will probably faint. I just can't wait.

The week has flown whigfield so cool we are exact day by day lol. I keep thinking 'right this time next week I'll be approaching week 7. Another week down, another week closer to 12

 

[GingerPanda]

I can't wait. My ultrasound is at 7w1d.

 

[whigfield]

@skinnymrs I know, it's crazy! Can't believe we both got BFPs on the same day at 9dpo too! Though yours was a lot darker than mine!

I think focusing on week by week is a lot less depressing than saying, "in March I'll be 12 weeks!"

Counting down the days though! Not long til our scan at 6+5. Really hope it all comes out okay. I'm more excited than worried at the moment though - that'll definitely change by Sunday!

Your scan isn't too far away either GP! So exciting!

 

[skinnysmrs]

Go with the moment. We are flying along nicely now. You and Ginger must post pics of your scans. Don't forget to ask like me

 

[GingerPanda]

There's no way I'll forget. I just REALLY hope it turns out better than my last scan!

 

[ourturnnext]

Aarghhh I've got scan envy!!! I was hoping the doc would say I could have an early one for reassurance but been no mention so far. Dunno if I can wait for twelve weeks!

Aww the first time I felt my daughter kick I cried buckets. Its so magical and I'm majorly excited about feeling it again

 

[wbee]

Ourturn, could you try asking for an early scan? Many women I've talked to were able to get early ones after a loss if only to calm their nerves.

 

[floridamomma]

I started progesterone supplements last night after fighting with pharmacy and ob to get it ordered. Ob would say they ordered it then pharmacy would say they didn't. I was supposed to start it the previous night but didn't get a chance to. My insurance is requiring a prior auth for it so I have to pay out of pocket which for now is 90 a month. I'm on 200mg is there anything I should be looking for that may happen.

Or can you pay for a private scan?

 

[ourturnnext]

I'll ask about a scan at my booking-in appointment with midwife next week. The worst they can say is no I suppose! Its crossed my mind getting a private one but can't really afford it x

 

[wbee]

Just started spotting. Reddish brown no cramps. Waiting for office to call me back. I'm terrified and home alone bawling.

 

[GingerPanda]

Oh no, wbee! Reddish brown is old blood, so no cramps is a good sign. I hope the doctor calls you back soon!

 

[floridamomma]

Oh wbee! I know it's impossible but try to stay calm for bubs. We are here for you. And it does sound like old blood.

 

[wbee]

Going in for blood work in half hour. They put me on 48 hour bed rest. I don't feel good about it. My boobs stopped hurting and I'm not constipated any more. I'm so scared.
