***(61) 2015 November Sparklers***

I already know the gender but having my second trimester anatomy scan tomorrow!:happydance: Excited to see baby boy again :cloud9:

I have been having terrible heartburn all day long. Tums don't seem to help. Even water gives me heartburn it doesn't matter what I eat. I randomly still feel sick. I actually vomited last night. Its so strange because with DS I wasn't sick after week 14. And I'm still taking my medicine every night.

Has anyone else been getting Braxton Hicks contractions already? I had them early with DS too. And all I drink is water and maybe one tea a day so I know its not from dehydration. Still feeling his kicks daily, I love that feeling!

For me works to eat soup and drink gatorate and tums. Maybe you should try it.
 
Hi girls! Did you think the doctor can find the gender at 17w3d. My next visit is friday and I wonder if I can know at this appointment.
 
Marie, I think they can see gender from 16 weeks. Good luck with your appointment.

I have my anomoly scan Monday, I'm really freaked out to be honest. I'm just hoping baby is ok in there and it's not bad news. Everything I've read online indicates are that the chances are high baby will be ok but the consultant just scares me. I have to see her too to discuss issues relating to the scan. I'm just hoping there aren't any!

We will try and find out gender too, both Dh and I have a pink preference as we have a boy already but I know statistically we are probably more likely to hear blue, as Dh comes from a very strongly male line and to be honest the gender of my children has never been a major thing to me.
 
Hi ladies! Could I be added to the list?

1) When is your due date? -November 27th

2) Whats your name? -Aimee

3) Where are you located? - Oregon, USA

4) Occupation? - Environmental chemist

5) Any kids (besides this one)/planning on more? - First baby, we hope to have two total but we'll see how this one goes.

6) How long TTC? - NTNP for over a year, but this was the first month really trying to time things properly.

7) Any other fun info you want us to know? - I'll (hopefully) learn the gender at the anatomy scan scheduled July 1st!
 
Hi Maries_s!

We're almost due date twins! I'm in the US so I'm hoping the baby comes on Thanksgiving, or at least on a date where it'll end up on T-day every so often. What about you, any specific day you think would be nice?
 
Welcome :hi:

Mrs Bump good luck with your scan this afternoon will be thinking of you hope all is okay in there which I am sure it is and all goes well with your consultant :hugs:

AFM - half way point passed :yippee: and only 2 more days until my scan and the big gender reveal :happydance:
I am starting now to suffer from SPD when I walk the dogs etc and feel like a cripple for the rest of the day afterwards which of course my DH does not understand :dohh:
 
I had my anatomy scan on Saturday. And the tech didn't say much I have to wait for my midwife but she did say that I would have to come back because baby kept balling up and she couldn't get a picture of the four chambers of the heart. And to make sure that my placenta moves up, because right now she said it is near my cervix. And the baby is breech but she said he was flipping all around. I initially was very concerned but now I feel more at ease. I feel in my heart baby is perfectly healthy, that she just couldn't get a good picture of the heart. And I read online that in 90% of pregnancies the placenta does move up. As for baby being breech I'm going to start going to the chiropractor again to ensure he moves to a good position. Just trying to stay positive and pray that my midwife calls today with less alarming information :thumbup:
 
Hope you get a good phone call today Mimzy :thumbup: will they give you another scan to be able to check the heart?

Also I think at this point if baby is breech it isn't really an issue my son was breech until 30+ weeks and he moved into the right position - they still have so much room in there

I have heard placenta's can move up so FX this happens for you :hugs:
 
This weekend was so amazing. The gender reveal party was great. We are having another baby girl and are so excited. Now on to the buying, lol.

Thank you Twag:flower: Yes, I will have another scan to get a good picture of the four chambers and to make sure the placenta moves up. Not sure when I will go again, midwife should tell me today hopefully.
 
Hi Maries_s!

We're almost due date twins! I'm in the US so I'm hoping the baby comes on Thanksgiving, or at least on a date where it'll end up on T-day every so often. What about you, any specific day you think would be nice?

That was my initial due date but I changed my ob/gyn and he changed my date. First I was stunning because thanksgiving would be a nice day to give birth. But when they changed my date I just was grateful because I would love to eat my grandmas and mothers food in thanksgiving, last year I could'nt because my husband and I celebrated with his family and for me it was not very good change in my palate. Lol but I think being close to thanksgiving day we are going to be over the moon when the baby arrives.:happydance:
 
Yay, another girl!! Congrats, Sunny! :happydance:

Mimzy, I hope the heart is OK! Maybe your baby was being difficult just to give you another chance to go in and see him so they can check the heart :winkwink:
I've heard that placentas move, too, so hopefully yours does!

Re: Thanksgiving babies -- I'm glad I'll have my baby a couple weeks before Thanksgiving, because that gives me more space in my belly to eat like a total pig!! :rofl: The year I was pregnant with Parker, I was so full of baby (was like 39 weeks) that I could only pick at the food and could only have a tiny slice of pie!! :rofl: :rofl:

Twag; my husband doesn't really seem to understand the SPD either. My kids are more understanding than he is, and I think its because they can see that I'm not just making it up to get out of sex. :haha: It seems like very few people who haven't experienced SPD really understand it or have much sympathy for it. I feel like most people think I'm just making it up and/or being whiney. :wacko:

AFM;
20 weeks for me, too! :happydance: My scan is Wednesday morning, 10:30am mountain time. So excited! And nervous :haha: But trying to just focus on the exciting bit... boy or girl?! :happydance:

My baby is sitting quite high, which seems to have relieved quite a bit of the pelvic pain I was getting. :thumbup: Or possibly my frequent resting and careful walking is just paying off, I dunno. I'm a bit uncomfortable today, but the last week or so has been nearly painless!

I am still SO CRANKY. :wacko: I'm not usually a bitchy person, but its been bad this pregnancy! I feel like I've been suffering PMS mood swings since ovulation happened. Ugh.
 
Congrats on team pink. My baby was upside down and we couldn't see the heart chambers because she was facing my spine, so we have to go back. But she's growing nicely and she's a she, feeling pretty amazing right now. :-D
 
Another girl! Please say this is a week for girl babies to be announced :winkwink:
Congrats MrsBump!! :yipee: :pink:
 
Awesome congrats :pink: Mrs Bump:happydance:!! And glad to hear baby is growing nicely. I also have to go back to get a picture of the heart chambers.

Spoke with my midwives office and they said its not uncommon to not get a good picture of something and it just happen to be the heart in my case. She also said that my placenta is 1.7cm from the cervix so not covering it. I can still resume all normal activity and that it could move up on its own. They are scheduling another ultrasound to recheck at a later date. I've been reading online and as long as its 2cm from cervix I can still delivery naturally so fingers crossed it moves up like it should! But baby is growing right on track :)
 
Glad to hear everyone is doing well..

Congrats on the :pink:!!! Yay for some girls!!

As for me .... I'm still feeling tired a bit and we have our level 2 ultrasound on Wednesday at 6:30pm so super excited for that...
I have some butt pain w the back/nerve issues wondering if I should see the chiropractor????

I keep checking in on everyone. Just been really busy at work and home.
:hugs: to all!
