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

Tara - Is there something wrong with this guy (aside from being a total dick)... I mean, has he ever shown any evidence of psychotic or stalking behavior im the past, with you or with anyone else? I know it would seem like a HUGE hassle, but could you change your numer? I know you can filter his emails through junk mail so you don't have to see them...

Yes he is crazy and I always looked past his craziness because it's never been so extreme before. Clearly his meds aren't working. I haven't changed my number in 16 years I would hate to give him the satisfaction in knowing he was the one who did it. I just won't answer blocked calls or weird #'s for the foreseeable future. I took the necessary steps to block his #'s, emails etc. So now any means he chooses to contact me would be consider extraneous. We shall see!! This goes BEYOND just being a dick. He is unstable mentally! He is fighting a deep depression right now and I really think this war with me is giving him something to do than be depressed!

 

[BubsMom17]

I agree... changing your number would really feel like he "won..." Like, why should I have to go through all that hassle because HE is choosing to throw such a tantrum???

I hope it all blows over soon and he gets exhausted of this... wish I could hug you for real, but here is a belly bump for my bump buddy! *bump*

awww thank you soooo much!! I hope so too!!! I just keep thinking like what is he trying to do? get me to miscarry because he thinks i'm going to be such an awful mother!!! I burst into tears last night when i blocked his number and he called from the different number.

Angel, I wondered about 3boys too- hope she's ok?

You can tell we've just had a super nice bank holiday weekend too, as most of the uk ladies have been quiet! But it has been far to nice to be inside, I have the sunburn to prove it My skin is so British, paler than pale, until it burns, then promptly returns to pale!

Hope everyone is ok?

I have my scan tomorrow morning-eek! I've been having trouble finding twin 1, but today found twin 1 no probs, but could not find twin 2 at all! Yet he's normally really easy! Anyway, I hope everything goes well. I'm nervously excited, my pessimistic nature won't let me believe everything will be ok, but I'm trying to be positive

 

[LoraLoo]

Im one of the UK ladies thats been enjoying thew sunshine and been slacking on here Im afraid Forecast rain here for the rest of the week so been making most of it!

Zowiey im sure your scan will go fine! I imagine babies are closer together now that they are growing, so maybe hiding behind one another at times?

Time seems to be going quite quickly, im 14+4 today! Getting ready for babys big growth spurt (between 15 and 19 weeks!) I remember it with my others being utterly shattered too! My bumps expanded this last week and ive had lots of comments on it! Makes it feel more real somehow x

 

[Angeltk42]

oh ok as long all is well with her and she is out enjoying the sunshine!!

 

[buddyIV]

Good luck at the scan Zowie..look forward to hearing all about it when you get back! x

 

[pa2k84]

Zowiey good luck for tomorrow i have my first scan tomorrow but in the afternoon, can't wait seems to be such a long time in coming.

This baby is a kickboxer lol the last two days it is flipping and kicking and moving like crazy! I couldn't be any happier right now, all this worry about the problems we've had has really made me question wether the baby is ok but the crazy about of movement the last two days compared to what I was feeling is sooooo reassuring! I am so happy and in love right now! Baby must be growing a ton too cuz the spots where it moves to are larger and I can feel it actually growing compared to a week or two ago when I was only feeling flutters.
I needed this so much because I was really having doubts.

Hope everyone else is good! It's super quiet around here today.

Tower - I have been feeling some awesome little bumps and bubbles, and little popcorn sensations in there, too, and it feels awesome! I really didn't think it would happen this early, but it is pretty unmistakeable!

You sound so much happier! I can feel your glow through the computer! LOL!

 

[MandaAnda]

Good luck with scans and appointments coming up!

I woke up to a bleed and cramping this morning, which has been light and brownish all day. Increased Braxton Hicks, which had started a few days ago as well. GP didn't seem too worried but then wasn't happy my tummy was so tender on palpating. So, off to a scan at the EPU, which was all fine and couldn't find a cause. I was happy to see baby, but I'll be happier if this stops and never happens again. I was so upset at first. Hubby is adamant I take tomorrow off, too. So, a restful day to look forward to. (Any nub/skull theory guesses welcome. Grrr, picture is fine but keeps turning upside down once uploaded!)

 

[LoraLoo]

Oh no Manda, that must have been such a worry for you so glad everything ok, agree with your hubby- rest! Cant see a nub but im getting a girly vibe from pic! xx

 

[peanutmomma]

Manda-I am getting a girly vibe from your picture too!
Tower- Lovey I am glad you are in a happier mood and my nephew is moving all around . I know we don't know if its my nephew quite yet, but I say it is my NEPHEW I wish I felt even a flutter all I get is a bit more tender than the rest and I know with Doppler baby peanut is right there. I know I won't feel anything for a few more weeks, but I am impatient.

Still waiting on the materniT21 test results which is hard but good news is that I have my 20 week ultrasound scheduled for June 12th! It feels far away but also crazy that in a month I'll be 20 weeks! Holy cow this has taken forever to get to second tri but then again the time has flown when I think about being 20 weeks!! Crazy!

I hope to get my results back Monday and then I have a regular monthly baby check on the 22nd of this month so hopefully that will help pass the time. They refuse any scan here until 20 weeks which is crazy cuz I read a lot of uk ladies getting them at 16 weeks and up. I tried to make mine for the first week of june cuz my husband will be out of school for only a week before returning and she was like "no you will only be 19 weeks and we do not do that scan before 20" I thought that was nuts lol

I can't believe they are that sticky about it! My practice does it any where between 18.5 and 21 weeks... so I am having my June 7th. I'll be 19 weeks exactly.

My doctor is pretty particular about not scheduling before 20 weeks also. They told me because that's when it's easiest to measure and see everything and make sure it's all normal. Makes sense but still frustrating!

 

[Tower6]

Well my hubby can't make that appt and they won't budge so I'm gonna try for the 14th, I'll be 20w1d it's not too bad but it sucks to wait that long to see the baby after all the things they say could be wrong. I feel like I want then to recheck now, I'll find out gender next week and thats exciting!! But I'm more worried about heart, bones, brain, nasal bone and all those things than the gender. Sooo I hope they have an opening the 14th!

How are you finding out gender next week? That's exciting! Fingers crossed they have an appt for you that also works for dh. My 12 week scan was supposed to be last week but I had to push it out a whole week so dh could come, annoying his schedule can't be more flexible!! Oh well, day after tomorrow!!

 

[Tower6]

I had to have the materniT21 test done because of the down syndrome stuff that we have had going on and with that test they tell you the gender of the baby as well. Very exciting for that part yet very nerve wracking for the rest! I told my husband that it's crazy how bad I want my phone to ring with the results but I'm also so afraid for them to call. I feel like a crazy person. I call everyday to check on the results but I also don't know if I'm ready for the result. Hard to describe, I'll just be happy when this stuff is over and we just know or sure what's going on either way.
