Wow twins. Exciting stuff. Grow strong baby b xxx

 

[AdriansMama]

Wow congrats on twins !! I am keeping you in my thoughts ❤️
Wonderful news on all the great scans and best of luck to the ladies with upcoming scans

My nausea has calmed down a lot thankfully but I'm still super exhausted! Can't wait for my 12 week scan next Friday I want to see if my tech thinks nugget is looking more boyish or girly !!

 

[busytulip]

Flossie I have been very emotional.

Baker-your little lobster is so cute!!

littlemiss-good luck at your scan tomorrow! I hope the bleeding is non-consequential.

pink-that is exciting news!

krissy I am so glad that the appt. went well

drjo-I'm sorry that they caught your BP being naughty. Congrats on your upcoming wedding. Hopefully after things settle down your BP will too.

adriansmama-that scan date doesn't seem as far away now. Yay

sugargully-any news hun? Hope things all went well.

Hi everyone.

As promised, I'm popping my head back in after our lovely holiday and I hope you are all keeping well.

Congratulations to anyone who joined after I left. I'll pop in soon, promise x

I was so sure I was miscarrying with the amount of bleeding I've had the last few days, but just been for my scan and baby is measuring perfect at 7+2 with a little heartbeat

The midwife thinks I have a fibroid near my cervix that is causing the bleeding but there was no consultant around to confirm it so they are going to call me later.

 

[busytulip]

Alea it's nice to see you pop in and I'm glad that your holiday went well.

littlemiss that is wonderful news, what a relief!

Flossie can't wait to see an update from your appt.

 

[bakerh518]

We were so scared about having twins as well! Glad its you and not me (they would have been welcomed just overwhelming!!) i hope your baby b catches up!

So happy to hear your scan went well littlemiss84!!

 

[sugargully]

Yay Pink! Praying for twin miracles for you!

Afm: my scan went well too. My doc is so old fashioned, he doesn't tell me much as he's working. My due date is 5 days ahead so 23 May now. I have to fix my ticker. I saw the heart beat, which was magical.

Hubby wasn't with me and we're going to need to fix that. He works overnight and traffic is horrendous in Houston so he has a good reason to not go to the afternoon appts with me. I hate to take off work knowing I'm going to need those days in the future but that may be the only way to get us there together.

Nausea is kicking my butt! I tried b6 and unisom. It worked yesterday but not at all today. Any suggestions ladies?

 

[busytulip]

Great update sugargully I've also heard of seabands, preggie pops, or colloidal silver for MS. Hopefully you find something that works for you and that MS will be backing off as you get further along. Hopefully your hubby can go join you at future appts. Although most of them are pretty boring from here on out, until about 28 weeks or so. Were you given any scan pictures?

 

[KrissyB]

Congrats Sugar and Little on the great scans!

Little - I'm glad your bleeding was nothing to be concerned about. I had over a week of spotting that almost gave me a panic attack but all was well there too

Sugar - I second the preggie pops. I'm ordering some for myself today too lol.

 

[Sis4Us]

Ask Ur Dr if he can prescribe Declegis it's helped me and he said basically b6

 

[N8ie]

Hi ladies

Congrats to all the ladies that went for the scans.

I just had a minor scare, I wiped and there was a bit of blood. I think and hope it's just from the irritation from the cyclogest. Now I keep going to the toilet to check if everything is fine.

I don't know what else to do. This is scary

 

[busytulip]

N8ie is the cyclogest in pessary form? That could be the irritant. I've heard of other ladies having little bits of blood during 1st tri even with the progesterone and they've gone on to have healthy babies. Has there been any more since? Only advice is to trust your instincts and if you feel it warrants a call or a trip then do so. I hope that you and your LO are okay.

 

[bakerh518]

mints work on the nausea for me! Lifesavers winter mint! (not peppermint! ) Hope you find something that works just as well for you!

SO happy to see so many well scans!

 

[ja14]

So Kitteh_kat and possibly someone else mentioned the Ramzi theory.. Just for fun I sent in my ultrasound picture to get the free result. Well, I got it today! ... It said it looked like my placenta was exactly in the middle, therefore no answer to be given I wouldn't have really believed it anyways, so it's kind of funny to get an inconclusive result.

 

[pinkpassion]

That's funny ja!!!!

Where is everyone ?

It's so quiet today!

 

[Gdef]

So this is our announcement for new baby! We announced to everyone this weekend. We've gotten a good mixture of "Congratulations!" and "Wow! Did y'all mean to do that??" (Since we have a 7 month old.) I told DH that some people were just not taught that if you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at all! Lol!!


Ja- I got my genderexperts results back yesterday and it said GIRL! That would make girl #3 for us!

I just wanted to check in and see how everyone else was doing. So glad to hear all the happy news! And TWINS!! How exciting! In my February Hearts group, I believe we had 3 or 4 sets of twins.

As for the nausea, I've been taking Zofran bc it's been really horrible for me. With dd2, it was awful as well. With dd1, I only had a tiny bit of night nausea just before bed. I've also found that lemon works really well for my nausea. I drink a TON of lemonade (CountryTime Lemonade Mix in the yellow can for those of you in the US) bc regular water makes me want to gag right now...even though I'm a huge water fanatic while not pregnant! Lol. If I'm at a restaurant, I'll just put tons of lemon in my water.

Yes it's a pessary, it stopped after that one time so I'm very relieved. Thank you so much for helping to put my heart at ease.

 

[sugargully]

Wonderful anti nausea suggestions! Thank you for the replies!

I do have scan pics. I'll try to upload them soon.

 

[Flossie_Aus]

Our scan went great yesterday, measured bang on 8w2d & healthy.
