Lotus congratulations!!!

Sandy good to hear that there are positive things on the horizon xxx

Lotus- omg that is soooooo exciting. I was waiting for and update! Glad the bleed is gone! When is your next scan?

I was so relieved that the bleed is gone. I go back in 4 weeks to "hear fetal heart tones", but I don't think I get an ultrasound until 19-20 weeks! I'm going to go before then to a private clinic for a 3D ultrasound so I can send a video to DH. He will be deployed until the winter.

Omg you have to wait forever! Well If you come to MO I will do one every week for you . And I don't know how you do it with DH deployed. I would die. Lol I'm needy

 

[LotusBlossom]

Sweetness- Ha! I know! It's sooo long! I'm already itching to see baby again. I wish I could come to you for more scans! That would be awesome. Yes, having him deployed is rough, but we timed the cycle so he would be here to help me in the first trimester and return for the birth. It's the best we can do. Otherwise, I'm just staying busy preparing for baby and doing prenatal yoga.

Hang in there Lotus you're doing great! Glad things are going well

Lotus, I'm so happy for you. My DH was deployed for transfer through the first tri so I know your pain!

 

[LotusBlossom]

Thanks, ladies! I'm so excited!
Thanks, Mells! I know you know what it's like to be pregnant with a deployed husband. I'll get through it, but I am not happy about it.

lotus your babys hb is almost exactly what mine was! 154 @ 7w4d then 172 or 174 @10.5 weeks maybe its a little boy?? i know hb really doesnt predict anything but i had to guess! sorry dh is deployed but its great he will be back for delivery. pregnancy really is "boring" until the baby comes anyways. maybe your dr will let you video the inext ultrasound so you can text it to him? my dr put the scan on a dvd so maybe thats an option and you can mail to him?

Ahh! That's funny! I know it is too early, but DH and I both saw a little something between the legs. I don't know how to upload a photo, otherwise I would put it up for you guys to investigate. There is a sign in the ultrasound room that says no recording, but the 3D ultrasound place will give me a video, so I'm going to send him one. I love that he will see the movement and not just photos. We're planning to skype to find out the sex at the same time. That is, if I don't see it during the ultrasound.

Lotus it definitely sucks to have dh away right now. But so nice to have the technology to see and hear each other on a frequent basis. So glad he will be back for delivery and hopefully through the first year at least! I have a friend who just got deployed for 9 months and his little girl just turned 1. I'm thinking this deployment might be a bit harder than before but that's military life and he's happy to do it. God love military wives. You rock!

Lotus, Dh was able to skype in for my appts but the connection in the hospital wasn't always the best so it got dropped a lot too. He was home by the time we found out sex so that was good. I know you can do this and if you need to ever chat just send me a message. I've been doing this for 17 years and we are about to make our 12 move next week!

Wow, Mells. 12th move? That is a lot. Thank you so much for the support. DH will be traveling to areas without internet at times, so communication will be spotty, but I'm prepared. That is nothing new. I can always have someone get in contact if there is an emergency and like I said, we are preparing as much as possible. I wanted to do the gender scan and have the technician write down the results and seal it in an envelope so I could open it over Skype and we can find out together. However, my next scan isn't until 20 weeks and I don't think I can wait that long so I will find out at an early 3D scan and then tell him the next time we can talk. He isn't going to be available when I am supposed to get the 3D scan anyway... There are always scheduling issues, but it's ok. Thanks again! I'm strong now, but who knows what the hormones will bring in the coming months.

Hi Ladies! At what point should I consider myself in the 2nd trimester? I am 12 weeks + 1 day now. I have read that I am in the 2nd at 13 weeks and another book says 14. The internet answers vary from 12-14. Should I just pick one? 13 weeks maybe?

 

[MoBaby]

I took the difference and said at 13 I was second tri

I I did the same.. Technically if you take 40/3=13.3

 

[jack79]

I think I said 2nd trimester at the start of week 13 😊

 

[MoBaby]

[~Brandy~]

[jack79]

How fun Jack!! I couldn't be team yellow again. I did it with my first but after that it was too much for me
