Great news about all the good appointments everyone and loving the announcements!

So I did my 6 hour drive today ready to see the specialist tomorrow and am now sitting nervously in a hotel. Gosh this baby business is stressful.... Think of me tomorrow girls and I will update as soon as I can...
 
Thanks ruthb! I have been trying to snack on regular crackers, but even those give me indigestion. I'll try to look for some high fiber ones though!
 
Good luck tomorrow, DrMum! I hope your consultation goes well!
Ugh. I've had a rough couple of days. My nausea has hit full force as well, and even though I'm not throwing up, it's making my days miserable. It's crazy though, cause at the same time I'm really hungry. But the thought of food makes me even more nauseous! Even when I have lots in my tummy, and I'm full as hell, I still want to eat more! It's driving me nuts.
I'm also extremely tired. I got a bit more energy late last week, so I thought I was finally getting out of the exhausted stage, but it's back full force as well. I could sleep all night (with a few trips to the bathroom, of course), and still have trouble opening my eyes in the morning. It's getting a bit ridiculous.
As for DTD...that's not happening too much in our house ATM. As much as I would like to, even just for OH's sake, I just don't have the energy to even pretend to want it. Hopefully my drive comes back soon, before he kicks me to the curb! lol
 
Goodness, mashed potatoes have never tasted so good. I made some with dinner and I'm having the leftover bowl right now.

I had roasted potatoes today but all I could think was how I wished they were mashed potatoes! !!
 
sn0wbunnie - I am also incredibly anxious to find out! I am planning on doing a private scan at 16 weeks and having a gender reveal shortly after. I cannot wait!

DrMum- Good luck tomorrow! I hope everything goes smoothly!

CurlyKate- I have also been really tired, but I haven't needed a nap to make it though the day in the last week, so I am hoping that my energy level will keep increasing... I definitely need it, and my house could use some attention. Hopefully you will feel better in the next few weeks!
 
bdb84- Mashed potatoes sound delicious! In week 8 the only thing I wanted to eat were baked potatoes. :wacko:

Is anyone else so incredibly anxious to find out the sex of their baby? I almost can't stand it. There's a place near me that does gender reveal scans as early as 15 weeks (you can come back for free if it's inconclusive) & I am SOOOO tempted to have one done.

We are way excited to find out the gender and my office will do them for 50 dollars at 15 weeks. Im very tempted to do it also. Plus I want to prove the hubby wrong. We kinda have a bet going on. Only thing is I have no idea what to bet for. Lol
 
Hey ladies, hope all is well. I just got back from a Las Vegas. DH and I were there for our 2 year anniversary. I sleptso much. We went to the pool each day, it was incredibly relaxing.
The bleeding is still happening daily but I figure its just part of this pregnancy. Nausea is back full force at night and early morning. I have this feeling like molten lava is in my throat. And I pee whenever I heave. So glad I brought a ton of panties on the trip.
I went to the pharmacy to ask about taking tums and other things. The pharmacist chided me and told me to add ginger to my diet and eat smaller meals more frequently. I gotta say..ginger ale has done wonders for me.
 
Hope everything goes OK drmum!

Sucks about the bleeding mommasqurriel but its true that a lot of women bleed throughout and they have completely normal pregnancies and babies otherwise! Vegas sounds good! Were going round there travelling for 3 weeks at Xmas, we booked it before we knew I'd be 6 months gone tho!

Oh my god my first scan is tomorrow, ive been so impatient but finally its here! Just hope everything's OK, feel like my pregnancy has been far been too easy with no nausea or fatigue!
 
Hi ladies. Sorry I've been missing a while. I'm just too tired to get on here much! I work full time and then just sleep the rest of the time. Anyway day off today so no excuses. After a quick look back seems like we're all mostly doing ok. Nice to see some good scans and good luck for those with scans coming up. I won't joining the FB group as I'm not on FB. Just noticed the April group is up and running so we're not the new ones anymore! Feel like it's gone so slow so far so that makes me feel better!
 
Forgot to attach the pic from yesterday (although not the best quality)! I feel so much better now and we went ahead and announced last night. We opted to do the NT scanning so we'll have another appointment and ultrasound Sept 9th! Only bad thing was Dr. advised against my acne toner & spot treatment. Uggh and my face is soo broken out. Any tips ladies?

Cute bean!

For acne right now (because I was on pills I had to stop) I went to LUSH and the lady asked me a lot of questions about my skin, then recommended this wash/scrub I use twice a day, plus a moisturizer. I am still quite spotty, but DF says he notices a huge difference in my skin. You're not supposed to use benzoyl peroxide or salisylic acid I don't think.
 
I still have terrible butt pain. I'm pretty sure my right leg is going to just fall off. Is this the trade off for not having nausea? Inability to walk? :p I'm trying to be good about all the positions I'm supposed to be in, but no matter how well I start out, I always end up sprawled on my stomach with my knee pillow on the floor by the time I wake up. All this just from walking too much, it's crazy! I used to be able to walk forever and ever :( We were going to sign up for a 5k walk in October, but now I'm kind of scared to do it. My appointment is in a week and a half, I'm really hoping I can make it that long, and that the midwife has some good advice or can refer me to someone who can help. Stupid pelvis. Stupid ligaments. I'm so glad I work from home so I can stay on the couch.
 
Hi, girls!

Can my due date be changed to the 23rd? I'm measuring a day ahead, which aligns perfectly with when I originally thought I O'd.

I went in for a private scan this morning and got to see baby and hear the heart beat for the first time (at my 6 weeks, I could just see it). Heart beat was measuring at 150bpm. <3

Oh, before my appointment, I made a stop at our credit union, only to puke all over the parking lot. Twice. :dohh: My first actual bout of morning sickness out of all three of my pregnancies.
