Anyone else expecting a November sparkler? *Updated with due dates!*

[zowiey]

Oh lovehearts, I have my fingers tightly crossed for you, I hope you get into epu as soon as possible, take care xxxx

 

[miss_kseniya]

Massive hugs Lora, it sounds like you had an awful consultant. Makes me so cross how insensitive people can be.

Bigs hugs to Lovehearts too. Hopefully everything will be ok hun.

Lovely scan pics Gem and Babymonkey

Can't believe tomorrow is finally nearly here. Can't wait to have the scan and see the baby again, and this time my OH can come with me as he was away with work for the early reassurance scan. All being well, we will be announcing on facebook on Fri or Sat so our wider family and friends know and can't wait now.

Hope everyone else is ok?

Babymonkey-I am so happy you saw the baby. I bet you feel loads better now

Lovehearts- like I said on FB I am praying all is well with you and LO. Maybe this LO is like your son and decided he/she needs the extra room so baby is removing unwanted padding inside. A little weird I am for sure but I am trying to make things better.

So, it is almost 5 in the morning here, and although I am glad I was able to lay down last night at 8 am fall asleep I am now wide awake. DH birthday is today. I will be making him Meatloaf and mashed Potatoes as he asked for. I was trying to tease him about being old now at 26!!! LOL but, was reminded I am 3 years older than he is! OUCH!
My poor boobies this morning. I feel like I am back at 6 weeks again. So very painful today! And I just had my breathe taken away when I sneezed. My belly where baby is hanging out at got super hard like a rock when I sneezed and I almost doubled over from the pain. But, luckily it went away a second after. It was diffrent feeling for sure.

Tower- Hi twin hope you are in good spirits today. How did the last blood test go? I know you don't have results, but were they nice to my twin? If not I will come get them as you are my family now and no one is allowed to hurt or be mean to my family!!!

is being sick good musicle exercise? I only ask because after spending the night and morning being violently sick, my muscles feel like they had had a workout. (I always fancied a six pack!)

 

[peanutmomma]

well, no six-pack while pregnant I hope. But, I knew a girl in high school that had the flu for a week and she was thinner to begin with, but when she came back to school a week and a half later she had a six-pack from vomitting. I suppose that is why Bulimics like it too.

Praying for you lovehearts what was it when you bed with your son? X

It was a subchronic haematoma (sp)

I won't know anymore until tomorrow now after my scan. Can't come quick enough.

Thank you ladies

My friend had a subchorionic haematoma that gave her grief at first, but her body did reabsorb it throughout the pregnancy. Baby is now a gorgeous 10 week old, born at home with no problems. Fingers crossed that there's nothing to worry about in the end. x

Lovehearts I really hope everything turns out absolutely fine x I had 2 big bleeds with DS, and although it was horrible for me and DH, DS was absolutely fine. I know how scary it is though to see that blood. I'll be thinking of you x

to you too Lora; what an insensitive *insert expletive of your choice here*! I know that the medical professionals must be very intelligent people, but some of them are socially inept. It's pretty astounding that she got something so sensitive, so distressing and personal, completely wrong when your notes were right there in front of her! It just completely undermines your confidence in their capabilities, because you immediately know that they've not paid proper attention to your case. Shame on her! After I had DS I actually had a debate with the consultant about the degree of tear I had...she'd written down the wrong information, and even though the FACTS were there in my notes, she kept getting it wrong. I just kept correcting her, until she eventually double checked and realised (without apologising) that she had it wrong all along (she thought it was a 3rd, when it was a 4th..."oh, but they hardly ever happen" was how she defended herself!). Twit.

I'm so, so sorry to hear of your friend's loss Gardenofedens. I can only imagine the pain they are experiencing right now; my heart goes out to them x

 

[BubsMom17]

Lovehearts - I saw your post on FB and my heart stopped you. I can't imagine how scared you are! Please let us know right away what is happening.

Creative - I have the same problem, but not vomiting... the other way... Been going pretty much since Friday, on and off... Doc said it's a bug and to wait it out... my tummy muscles kill from the horrible cramping. I hope you feel better!

 

[buddyIV]

As for me: things here have been great! I'm feeling a million times better: DH asked if I'd been using tinted moisturiser or something, but its just that I've finally got some colour back in my face after feeling sooooo nauseous for 7 weeks!

I've also submitted my PhD, and got a brand-new haircut, so I'm feeling like a new woman!

I've still not got much of a bump (it still seems mostly bloat to me, as it's firm, but not hard), which is obviously bothering me. I had low fluid levels with DS, and he always measured small, and am dreading a repeat this time around. Pray for me ladies, that this will be a normal pregnancy!

I've still got another week to go until my 12 week scan...feels like forever! But at least you wonderful ladies have shared yours, so I still have some gorgeous wee babies to look at in the meantime. Is there anyone else getting a scan on the 9th?

Oh, and as for the booby thing: it'll be so interesting to see how this one turns out. With DS my boobs only really hurt occasionally, but this time around they hurt 24/7...like, properly aching! It's even sore washing in the shower! They've grown far more, and far quicker than they ever did during my last pregnancy...although when I was nursing DS they went form a B to an E!!!

Sorry for going on ladies: I haven't been on for ages and wanted to catch up with everyone xxx

 

[BubsMom17]

My poor boobies this morning. I feel like I am back at 6 weeks again. So very painful today!

Oh my gosh, mine starting hurting again last night! They feel super full and heavy again... I wonder what's going on with that???

 

[Tower6]

14 weeks today!!

Love hearts- I had a feeling that was what happened, I had that with my third baby and it was more blood than I could even believe!! A friend of mines cousin just had that 3 weeks ago at 11 weeks. Very scary, almost hard not to feel like something is wrong but they showed me an u/s of the pocket of blood ad that baby was fine and it was. So so glad that all it was!

Peanut it's crazy how exact our lives are. My kids dad is a type 1 diabetic and we actually didn't find out till his b/s was 600 and he slipped into a coma! We had NO IDEA then life beck about educating and me learning to basically become a nurse to teach eating habits and looking at labels and giving insulin for the highs and sugar or the EXTREME lows while they figured out what works best. Though that still changes constantly as you know. I totally understand your daily life and commend you for doing it while pregnant!! Your amazing! Also! My DH is only 24! Will be 25 when the baby is due lol I'm a good 4 years older than him hahah we love the jokes that we make about that I tell ya missy, twins is really the prefect word we need to get the babies a matching onesie when we find out what they are and then we can exchange the picture for the other baby to keep

 

[Tower6]

Idk of I commented on that last pic gem- but awesome! Isnt it so fun once they take baby shape!! Love it!

Teacupp- are you finally over that horrible sickness?! I hope so!!

Most of you change again on Sunday so hopefully your almost all out of the sickness!!

 

[BubsMom17]

Hey, we both change tomorrow! Are you out of your sickness yet??? Mine seems to have passed.

 

[Tower6]

I didn't get it with this baby, but I'm just getting out of the complete exhaustion!! That was the hardest part this time. With my girls I was nauseas for 5 months straight and really wondered how people even live while pregnant! Lol so of coarse I feel like my hopes of a boy may actually be reality buuuut I am also 7 years older than the last time so it could just be that too I get my results back in about 7-10 days from the 2nd round of downs tests and that will also have the gender with it!! So I'm extremely excited or that!

Yay for 14 weeks!

I had the same amount of nausea as I had with my son, but this time I have been dealing with headaches... I had close to no headaches when I was pregnant last time, but this time it has been chronic. Doc says they SHOULD pass by 15 weeks... keeping my fingers crossed for that one.

That's interesting! I've never had them with my girls but this time I've had migraines! The dr suggested a chiropractor because they get so bad that it feels like my brain is throbbing and swelling, then i puke. It's actually the ONLY times I've thrown up with this baby is due to headaches

 

[BubsMom17]

OK, here is a little poll for you ladies:

With my son, I had him 10 days early. He was little, but perfectly formed and healthy (6 pounds, 18.5 inches).

Since my EDD is November 1st (per LMP, but November 4th per my O date), what are the odds I will end up with an October baby???

 

[Tower6]

We are guessing my baby will be born between oct 15-28th but if I even make it that far I'd be surprised, so I know I'll have a October baby but I've told these girls I hope I can stay here anyway cuz I LOVE this group!
