Morning ladies...I have my 12 week ultrasound today. I'm so excited to see this little one again. He/she has been doing some Tae Kwon Do or something in there. During the day bubba won't stay still. I'm not complaining though. I love the feeling! I hope everyone is doing well. Have a great day and chat soon!

Awesome Kareen!

Come back and tell us all about it. I have my first scan tomorrow. I know all will be well.

Hope everyone is blessed!

[sue247]

Hope your scan went well today Karen. Are you feeling baby already? Wow, lucky you!

All the best with your scan tomorrow MrsKC.

Hey ladies! I had my scan today! It went great! Little bubba wouldn't keep still which explains all the fluttery movements I've been feeling. Measured 12+3. The nuchal translucency was right on point. I had to do bloods. They took 7 tubes of it! Lawd! LOL. We got to hear the heartbeat as I had my ob/gyn appt booked right after the ultrasound as they like to discuss the findings. I go for another u/s at 19 weeks and hopefully the little one will cooperate so that we can see if it's a boy or a girl

Congrats Kareen! I'm so glad things are well. They could barely get a pic of my little one because of all the thrashing about. I still haven't felt anything yet, hopefully soon! My avatar pic is of 11w3d. It was lovely.

My fingers are crossed for everyone TTCing!!

I feel as though a weight has been lifted off my shoulders, I told my job that I'm expecting today and they were great about it. I had been so worried.

 

[AJThomas]

^That's great! Hopefully they'll continue to be very supportive when you need time off and stuff.

That's great Von! I was also worried about telling my employer as I had only been working about 6 months. They were very good about it.

Mrskc: Hope all goes well today for your u/s. Come back and tell us all about it!

 

[the_key2005]

Wow Karen thats fab news, how cool to be feeling baby already. I dont think am feeling LO yet, what does it feel like? I've read it feels like bubbles in your tummy.
Sincerevon good on you for telling work, am so nervous about it. I work in IT and with a bunch of men goodness know how they will take it. I have my 16week appointment soon so will wait till after that to tell them. MrKc how did you get on today?

 

[tickledpink3]

Congrats on getting to see bubs karen. At my 20 week, my baby wouldn't budge, they had to maneuver to find out what she was lol

Mrskcbrown dont forget to update us!

Hiya!

I had an early scan today at my fertility specialist and it went well. They dated us at 4w5d, so only 1 day ahead. We go for another one in 10 days. We get a scan every 2 weeks for 10 weeks because we were initially under the care of a fertility specialist and this is their procedure. Im not complaining, I want to see the little bub everytime I can. I think it will help to ease my mind some. It was just a little black dot but I was just happy to see something there.

Tomorrow we go to OB to get this party started.

I was trying to ease into the pregnancy forums for first tri and for february 2011 but there have been so many losses this past week, its making me nervous. I had to stop checking in over there. Everyday I pray we make it to term.

I hope everyone is well.

 

[tickledpink3]

The losses can be disheartening but you have to trust in Him. And good that you will be getting frequent scans. That means the next time you go, you should see a heartbeat!

 

[Isi Buttercup]

Just thought to pop by and say hello to you ladies. Almost feel out of place here

Hope all your pregnancies are progressing well.

Glad your scan went well, Mrskc. With God on your side, you definitely have nothing to worry about.

Take care, you all!

I have a high temperature today so i finally have crosshairs for CD17. Now comes the waiting and SS.

 

[kareen]

Hey all! Hope everyone is doing well.

@the_key: at first it felt like bubbles so i chalked it up to gas, but since this will be my 3rd live birth i know what i'm feeling. but now it just feels like something swiping the inside of my tummy. it's really hard to explain, but what i do know is that when you feel it you will know

@tickled: thanks. this little one moves about a lot. mostly during the day so hopefully he/she will continue that pattern of up during the day and sleep at night! LOL

@mrskc: glad to hear all went well with the u/s. and you get them every 2 weeks? that's great. it's so lovely to see their progress. make sure to get pics each time to compare them and have a timeline.

@isi: don't you dare feel out of place! we have all been in the same place trying to get pregnant. have faith. feel free to "use" us by asking questions and going through our experiences with us. by the time you get pregnant it will be old hat to you and you will breeze through your pregnancy. LOL. whether you are pregnant right now or not, we are all here to support each other in every way we can. and that goes for anyone else. no one is out of place here. we're all sisters and sisters support each other. i'm not going to stop and i think i speak for us all. ;-)

@aj: good luck! we're right along with you during your tww! Yahoo!!!!

 

[mrskcbrown]

@Isi: You are not out of place. You are our sister and we are here for you! We "heart" you! So we will be here until you get your BFP and thereafter.

Thanks so much Mrskc & Kareen . I love being part of such a loving community of women. I look forward to when I'll be able to trade pregnancy stories with you! But in the meantime, like Kareen said, I'll just learn from you guys .

Loving the latest ticker Mrskc!
