gemie im so thick i never realised you had a 17 year old son. Whats it like expecting while you have a near adult? With trusting God with our fertility i guess there is a good chance that i will be in the same position one day as when my eldest is 17 i will be 37and i wonder what it will be like. My eldest is 8 right now and he is such a massive help to me i cant imagine what it will be like when he is 17.

My eldest is 21, i also have a 19 year old and a fourteen year old. I have to say it's a wonderful position to be in. They all muck in and help out.

Brittany... Awesome picture!! How far along are you?

Peanut... My appt is at 9:45, we're only 15 mins apart! What are you going to the gentecis for, if you don't mind me asking? I'm going because while in the er last week they compared my us for two weeks prior and felt there were some abnormalities with the baby. I'm terrified!! All I keep thinking is one if the baby has down syndrome or something terrible? OH and I are a nervous wreck! What could these abnormalities be?

I don't mind you asking at all. We want to make sure that there aren't any other problems that can occur other than what my Type 1 Diabetes can cause with baby. Which is hypoglycemia (low blood sugars) and a possibility of an enlarged heart. Also, I am 29 and with my Disease my inner organs are like a much older woman so they said the 30-35 year cut off that increases risk of downs is already increased with me.
We are pretty excited since we will get to see peanut baby again on the big screen . And it is great reassurance for me because I have a severe fear that I have done something wrong and the baby will have issues. I have been doing what the Doctor wants well both the OB doc and my endocrinologist. But, I always have fear of when great awesome things happen in my life. I never feel I deserve to have the nicer things in life like becoming a mommy to a great little one. And, DH is all for anything we can do to make sure this momma doesn't stress so we can have that baby. I refuse to do amneo. though to much risk there, but a scan and blood test I am okay with

I can only imagine how lovely it is, my 8 year old always sits and plays with Jacob who is 1 and its such a help when trying to make dinner or clean up etc. so i would guess that they would help so much more when older. Does your 21 and 19 year old still live at home?

 

[LoraLoo]

You ladies are lucky! My eldest is disgusted with the fact Im pregnant lol

 

[SmileyShazza]

I might have missed a prior post (sorry if I did) but why do you feel it will be bad news? I hope that's not the case at all

smiley, why do you think it will be bad news? Fingers crossed for you xxxx

We had an MMC with our first pregnancy and this time has felt very similar to then. I'm hopig I'm wrong (obviously) but am preparing for the worst just in case.

I just can't get that first one out of my head

 

[miss_kseniya]

Hello

I feel soooo tired today. It's really hit me the last couple of days. Struggling through work and I could desperately do with an afternoon nap!

 

[southernbound]

Aww Lora I'm sorry to hear that. I'm sure she'll come around.

Smiley, I hope everything goes ok! Let us know ASAP!

As for me, have another scan today in 3 hours

 

[peanutmomma]

MS is getting me today. I have actually threw up 4 times in the past 35 minutes. I feel loads better than when I woke up. I had a bad headache, but not quite a migraine. I was drinking some Caffeine free diet soda and ate a piece of cheese, took prenatals then in 5 minutes up everything went. I feel better than I have in days though.Weird LOL
I swear my bump is bigger this morning thn when I went to bed last night and ouch! Yesterday I started to get muscle pains in the back of my upper thighs, Round Ligament?
Okay, pitty party over. I hope everyone with scans this week has wonderful things to share. I know a few are tomorrow. like my twin Tower I love you and I know you will come home with great news and pics.
So, quick question, has anyone been told by scan tech or doc at 12 week scan what the sex was and it was wrong?

 

[zowiey]

Aww Brittany, lovely scan!

Smiley, I really, really hope you're wrong

Excited for the ladies having scans, can't wait to see more pics!

12 weeks today for me! I never in my wildest dreams thought this would happen! Half way to viability day! Yay!

We got a lot of happy messages back last night mostly shock first, then lots of really lovely words, our friends know our story, so are thrilled to bits for us, and made us feel very loved!

 

[peanutmomma]

zowiey that is great news that you received loving messages back

 

[lovehearts]

ah zowiey - im so glad you had such a lovely response. Happy 12 weeks

Peanut - Im sorry your so sick today. I have good days and bad days too!

Some hospitals here in the UK wont tell you gender at all!!!! Luckily not my hospital.

xx

 

[3boys]

zowiey that is lovely.

My hospital here in ireland will not tell gender, in the past i have payed for private gender scans but at 140 euro i just cant afford it this time especially as i have to travel to dublin for it so that has added expenses. Team yellow for me.

 

[3boys]

peanut im sorry you are sick i hope you feel better soon x

oh hun i completely understand how you feel, i have had 2 mmc in the past so i know how terrifying each pregnancy after that is. I have also had 5 (hopefully 6) successful pregnancies and each one of them were all so different. For example i always feel queasy with each pregnancy and some are worse than others but with my daughter i never felt sick once, had no symptoms whatsoever.
How is this pregnancy similar to your mmc?

Yes, The eldest works as a lab technician, the 19 year old goes off to London to conservatoire to study viola in September so the house will be a lot quieter. only a violin, a flute and piano practice left at home then! It will seem funny without him here, but we'll be a lot less busy!

 

[Angeltk42]

had my first ultra sound today! Yay!

I don't think anyone who has suffered a Mc or a MMc can get it out of their head. I know I can't. Every twinge every symptom is a fear something is wrong. We have to have faith in god that he has a plan for us no matter what it is. Even if the outcome is not what we choose. But positivity helps and the support of ALL these lovely ladies definitely helps. I feel like I have a huge amount of people rooting for me and my sticky bean and you Definitely do too!! So Don't worry too much (easier said than done) and just have faith that your LO is happy and healthy and swimming away in there
