Congrats and welcome to the group!
Had my first ultrasound this morning. Was able to see the little flicker of the heart, and finally confirm that I don't have an ectopic pregnancy. Yay! The doctor thinks that I'm closer to 5 weeks pregnant as opposed to 6 as I was told based on the first day of my last cycle. She said she couldn't say much about my baby's health b/c she's so small right now but I'm just happy to have confirmation that it's not an ectopic pregnancy 
Also the nausea's given me a bit of a break today which is always cause for celebration!

Hi chatty ladies! Phew- a week away camping and what a load of catch up I've had to make it through!!
So, good to see some new ladies, and so sorry to see some losses girls. Fingers crossed for you to be back soon, but I know there is nothing that makes a loss easier, so I will also just send big hugs!
Good to see we are starting to talk maternity pants and gender guessing! I was only just getting out of my maternity pants when I was pregnant again (12 weeks between pregnancies...who says women over thirty five aren't fertile haha!) I don't think I ever replied to the how old are you/how many pregnancies bit...? So, I'm 36 next week and this is my 4th pregnancy.
DS is 3, I had a mc after him at 6w, then our DD was stillborn at 34 weeks in March and now I'm due again in March! That said I'm likely to be delivered early due to our stillbirth so I may end up as a feb, but I like hanging out with you guys!!
Symptom wise I'm nauseated every day but the sore boobs have gone. I think my fundus is rocketing upward but again, it probably wasn't totally back to normal. Next scan and OB is on Thursday.
So, does anyone have fun with gender prediction, ramzi, baking soda etc. I love a bit of gender prediction!! Or just gut feelings?
Good to be back to wifi! Missed you all

I've looked at Chinese gender chart (going by lunar year) and that says girl. Was right for my other two babies. We will see!
Is ramzi the one where you look at what side of the baby the yolk is on? My scan may not be early enough to try that. When can baking soda be done?
One of my friends swears by the eye test. Pull your lower lids down and look in the mirror. Look for veins making a v or y formation on the whites of your eyes. In the left means girl and right means boy. She's declared I must be having a boy. Because there's a less obvious v there and she picks the subtle ones. Haha.

Yep ramzi is the placental position in first trimester one. Some reports say over 97%accurate, others say it's a load of tosh!!

I have never heard the eye ball one haha! *rushes it I bathroom to gaze into own eyes*
Has anyone been tempted to buy those pee on a stick gender tests you can buy online? Anyone able to comment on success rates? Might replace our POAS tendencies!!
Chinese gender was also right for both my son and daughter, and it says this one is a girl. So, we will see! I have an amnio booked so I guess we will find out! Fwiw ramzi also says girl for this one!

Feeling EXHAUSTED tonight! Hubby & I LOOVE hiking together & are trying to get in as many trips to some local waterfalls until baby comes! Today we went on a 3 mile moderate hike- not as crazy challenging as others we've been on- & I am completely & utterly pooped! We were suppose to go to walmart tonight for groceries & cook dinner but hubby went to pick up pizza- yah- pizza has never sounded more awesome than this moment right now! hah! Seriously... my whole body hurts & it wasn't even a difficult hike!

Is there such thing as the "pregnancy blues?" I've been feeling pretty depressed... I haven't changed any of my meds since finding out I'm pregnant, but I feel like I'm starting to lose it mentally... I'm really weepy and also having some gnarly thoughts lately... normal?

I can't use the Chinese gender predictor this time!
I either ovulated on the 30th of June or 1st of July. And gender changes based on which it was. Dammit. LOL

Talk to your doctor ASAP is my advice. I didn't, and I ended up severely suicidal through most of my pregnancy with my daughter. It was scary! But yes, there is depression associated with pregnancy in some women. It's a hormonal time and those hormones really can make things worse for some of us. If you're having gnarly thoughts, it's time to see your doctor. *hugs*
Sorry to hear you're not feeling too hot missfrick. Good advice there from menelly to go and speak with your OB or GP ASAP. Many OBs have specialist maternal mental health teams now as mood changes in pregnancy are so common. And the bad old days of "there's nothing we can do" are thankfully behind us and there are many options. I know your scan is this week same as me, so hopefully some good news will help you too. Big hugs.

So I googled the baking soda test and I so want to do it!
Do it do it do it and tell us what happens haha!
