Hey everyone!

Have been quiet as on holiday still but totally stalking this thread and seeing how your all doing!

So sorry to hear about your fur baby, I have my fingers crossed for you!

I'm flying back to the UK at the weekend so I'll be able to book my 8 week EPU scan and booking in appointment on Monday!

I have had THE WORST MS ever!! Started a few days ago. Even found myself vomiting the toilet of an Olive Garden restaurant last night, yuk!

But I've found these awesome sweets.. They are ginger and work so well! Anyone with MS try Preggo Pops!

Also, my boobs are like so sore!! I've already moved onto a maternity bra which has helped me loads. My OH won't even touch them anymore as he knows how much they are hurting me.

As for twinges and bloating.. I'm definitely feeling pregnant now! Feeling so much more optimistic than during my ectopic.

Loved reading all the posts, stay positive ladies xx

Hello EmmaDaisy, is there a particular team your rooting for? I have a similar situation with my dates! My due date is my maternal grandfathers birthday but I have to have a c-section which will be scheduled for the 16th which is my paternal grandfathers birthday and who we will name the baby after if its a boy!

MrsReed, I LOVE Preggie Pops, they are a life saver (along with mint gum!) Hope you had a nice vacation and I hope you share your scan pics, can't wait to see little bean!


So super early but has anyone started looking at names? DH and I are already decided (crazy I know lol) but we had such a hard time with DS's name that we wanted to be ready instead of nearly having a baby with no name! Haha

DH and I actually have three names already picked out haha. We had them picked out for a while now. Too funny

First boy will be named after my husband because I love his name.-Nicholas Anthony
Girl- Cecilia Deborah
Boy-Carson

 

[NavyLadybug]

Lovely names Pumpkin!!

We have Lyle Dean picked for a boy (Lyle is my grandfather and Dean is my uncle plus I'm obsessed with the show Supernatural haha)

And we have Remi Louise for a girl, Remi is from my grandmother (a variation) and Louise is my aunt

Welcome Emma!

Mrs.Reed - sorry about the vomiting in Olive Garden, but I'm so happy you are feeling better about your pregnancy! When do you go home?

DH and I have had names picked for years -
Nikolas Scott (My great grandmother was Nikoletta and cousin Scott)
Patricia Marie (after his Grammie (Pat) and my mom and my middle name)


Klive, the Papillon fur baby, was released from the hospital last night. DH worked from home today to be with him. He is not 100% normal, but he made it 48 hours with no seizures or death from brain swelling, so we are home free now. I came home from school and slept with him for 5 hours, and I'm about to go back to sleep. This week was exhausting. I also felt less symptoms yesterday, but they seem to be back today. I'm kind of worrying they are all from progesterone now and not natural...but I know that is silly. I am officially the farthest along if all is well!

The picture is him before getting his catheter IV out last night. He's pretty dirty and shaved, but ALIVE!

I'm glad to hear your dog is doing better hmmohrma! What a relief.

I'm so nervous for my scan today which is in an hour and a half. Will this ever get easier?! Told my family last night and they were thrilled. Keeping my fingers crossed that all is still good today. Will update properly later.

We would love a girl having 2 boys but tbh as long as it's fit and healthy I don't mind, I do have a feeling it's a girl this time, my boobs are so sore and I've gone off tea never had symptoms this early with others.
But going off ohs family there hasn't been a girl in 34 years so likelihood will determine another boy.

We have talked girls names and we like Daisy Ann Ellena Darren grandma was called Daisy, Ann is a tradition within the girls and Ellena is my mum's name (well she is Eleanor but everyone calls her Ellen xx

Scan went well today. Baby was measuring 7+4, heartbeat still ticking away nicely and we even could see it wriggling. Hoping baby continues to grow strong over the next few weeks and we see a healthy 9 week old baby when we get our next scan at the EPU on the 22nd of April.

I love everybody's name choices. They sound great. Although we haven't decided 100% on any names (except for boys middle names) I've got such a long list names as I'm a bit obsessed with them.

Our front runner for a boy is: Fergus Steven (my maiden name(ish)) Vastrik (maternal gran's maiden name)
For a girl I like Aurora, Arianna, Freya and Caoimhe.
...at the moment anyway!

 

[NavyLadybug]

So glad you're scan went well Lyn!!!

Wonderful names Lyn and Emma!

 

[pumkin04]

Lyn so glad your scan went well!

 

[MrsReed2015]

Lovely news Lyn!

And great to hear that pup is doing well

I'm flying home on Sat evening, so won't actually be home until Sunday.

Xx

I'm having light bleeding only when goingntombathroom no cramps
Freaking out, guess I'm contacting my doctor.... I want to cry

 

[NavyLadybug]

Try and stay calm for now, I know its hard, but stressing out won't help Just call the Dr and see if you can get in for a scan today or at least an exam. Please let us know how it goes. No cramps and the fact that its light and only when you use the bathroom is a good sign considering. Everything crossed for you

 

[MrsReed2015]

Please stay calm. I had a friend who bled bright red, soaked her bed sheets, only to find out the bean was all snugly and cosy. It could be nothing, but please keep us posted!

 

[pumkin04]

Thank you guys!! You are all so supportive
I put a panty liner on to see. Only like a tiny bit on the liner right now as of 1:00pm. Trying to stay hopeful. My doctor wasn't in today but the nurse said to call if bleeding gets heavy and I have tons of cramping. And bleeding with clots. the color was of a darker kind of red but it was sort of mixed with cervical mucus it seemed cuz the color was tinged. Fingers crossed its just nothing ugh I hate the waiting so so much.

 

[NavyLadybug]

I'm glad you were at least able to get in touch with the nurse. I had spotting with my son and it was solely because my cervix was just SO ENGORGED that the Dr said it was like a water balloon (sorry, tmi) but that could very well be the case for you as well if its light and tinged with mucus! Especially if you and your OH had some alone time before hand.

 

[pumkin04]

We actually haven't dtd since the last time I bled after sex. I put a restriction on it ha. I did a bunch of walking the last two days so it could be the over exertion as well.
So I will be taking it easy this weekend

 

[hmmohrma]

Take it easy and listen to the medical professionals. They always say a little spotting early on is pretty normal. I also have everything crossed for you. I want us ALL to make it to Nov/Dec soooooooo badly!

 

[pumkin04]

Thank you. I want us all to make it till then too. Happy healthy pregnancies !!
