@essie Is the cramping really bad, or could it just be some normal pregnancy cramping - maybe aggravating your scar a bit? I hope it's nothing. :hugs:
 
Whigfield, are you 100% certain that the seats were never ever ever ever ever in a car accident or dropped outside of the box and the straps have never been washed? If you can't guarantee those, no matter how good a deal they might be, I would skip them. All the trouble we go through growing these little people, there's no reason to risk their safety once they're in our arms.
 
Essie, my c-section scar was SO tender and itchy beyond belief for weeks 3-5 of this pregnancy. I have no idea why considering I've had 2 pregnancies since my last c-section. Hopefully it's a good sign :)
 
Nothing sharp or unbearable but really sore and full feeling. I don't remember having this much "growing pains" with DD till almost the second trimester when round ligament pain kicked in. Mabey my uterus is just more sensitive after a c section..... been checking the tp like a mad woman but have been lucky so far.

Thanks hun. Thats reassuring to hear.
 
@3Minions I used to work for the company and can 100% guarantee they have never been in car accidents. Mostly they are returned brand new, still in packaging, and are then checked over by specialist Maxi Cosi engineers to ensure there's no damage. :flower:

I just found baby's heartbeat on the doppler!! Little sucker was between 175-180 bpm!!!
 
That makes me happy Whigfield :) So many people don't understand how important that stuff is. That was my public service announcement for the day, lol. Carry on :)

And Essie, from about 3dpo my uterus just felt heavy. I can't explain it any other way. The feeling has since gone away, but I had NEVER experienced it before with any of my other pregnancies. Maybe it has something to do with the D&C and a clean sweep? Beats me....
 
Awesome whigfield! I can't wait to break out my doppler.
 
@3Minions Haha, no worries! I had it drummed into me when I worked there about car seats in car accidents so I'm pretty aware too. I do agree that it's scary how some people aren't! :haha:

WOW that is AMAZING!!
 
I used the Sonoline B 3mhz. Last pregnancy I found it at 9+1, so really surprised I managed to get it at 8+4! :happydance:
 
Hi Ladies!

Checking in! I keep losing track of where I left off, this thread is so busy! Congrats to all the successful scans! How's everyone feeling?? I've been puking a lot :/ Anyone heard of unisom for morning sickness? My OB recommended it.

I get my Doppler in today - DH can't come with me to my first apt next week and I'm hoping by some miracle we'll be able to pick up the heartbeat before the apt so he will feel more reassured. Scan is next Thursday!
 
Congrats on finding hb Whig that's so exciting
Confused I want to buy one as well but a ms ated I'll panic if I can't find hb
 
Fab finding the heartbeat already!! :thumbup: My friend has my doppler right now and im glad as i would be trying now at 5 weeks to find a heartbeat :blush:

Essie - hope your ok sweet, ive found this time round im ballooning out quicker so maybe its the pressure on you scar xx
 
Haha ttclou! That sounds like me. :haha: I was having a little go for fun at 5 weeks too. :blush:

@floridamomma I'm planning on not using it very much.. If I can. (She says! :haha:) I couldn't find the heartbeat one time last pregnancy after finding it routinely every day and sobbed, assuming it was all over. By the time OH got home we found it. :dohh:

@confused Sorry to hear your OH won't be able to make it to the scan. Hopefully you can get the heartbeat on the doppler!
 
That's awesome whigfield :happydance:! And Floridamomma, I'm also torn on investing in one for that very reason, should I not find it one day I'll freak out :wacko:! To doppler or not to doppler, that is the question lol.

So what are everyone's symtoms like? My BB's are fine as long as they are in a bra...the minute I take that sucker off at night it feels like they are going to rip right off my body. Some slight waves of nausea a few times thus far, dry heaved once, but other than that no real morning sickness going on. Feel some pressure in my pelvis, like things are definitely shifting and filling in down there, and bloating. That's about it. It's pretty easy to fall asleep when I hit the pillow at night, but no severe fatigue either. My sniffer seems to work in overdrive at time, but nothing crazy. Most days I feel I spend more time wondering if something is a symptom then feeling the true effects of them lol. Just wondering what other ladies are experiencing right now :flower:.

I don't think I mentioned on this thread that I had gone in for an unexpected scan on Wednesday after seeing my acupuncturist. Woke up that morning with just a weird uneasy feeling, bb's less sore didn't help :nope:. My acupuncturist convinced me to call my RE to see what they could do to provide me some reassurance, so i called. Went in and he saw the gestational sac and my corpus luteum cyst, but not really anything else...but I measured right on time at 5+3, which i found some relief in. My uterus is pretty signicantly tilted so he couldn't really get a clear picture. He was emphatic that I not worry and that i just need to get a little bigger so the picture can be clearer to see what's going on inside given my stubborn uterus logistics...but we all know, easier said than done lol. I go back for my regularly scheduled scan next Thursday...he's hopeful an extra week will give us a better view of what's going on. Fingers crossed!!

My symptoms are all over the place, one day strong and one day hardly noticeable. I wish they were always strong!! My newest is exhausted and needed to use the restroom every few minutes!! I have a little nausea, all day everyday but doesn't effect anything. I had morning sickness once and that was about four days ago. My breast hurt sometimes not much though, unless someone touches them.. then they are sore!! I feel bloated now :thumbup: Oh! Nothing sounds good, yet all chocolate, coconut cream pie.. etc sounds amazing!!! :haha: And I always feel hungry, like I haven't ate hungry! :)

Good luck with your scan!! My first scan is in 13 days! Taking it day by day, hoping it flies by!
