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

Loving all the crazy dreams in here. I've been reading all the game of thrones books in the last month and some of the dreams I've had have been insane. All war and fighting kind of dreams. Very odd

Garden I admire your resolve not to peek, it must be so temptimg knowing you have it written down. Will be such a lovely surprise though to cut the cake and reveal :)

Bubs I like the name Gabriel Luca and Gabriel Lorenzo. Picking is so difficut isn't it. I use sticky notes application on the desktop on my work laptop and my background is literally pasted with loads of these notes with various name combinations on. I change my mind every day.

Hope everyone is good and good luck for your scan Angel and anyone else having one this week :)
 
Been to the midwife for my 16 week appointment.
I had extreme baby brain this morning as three times before I left I went to the loo pot in hand and then wee'd in the loo. only managed to squeeze out a centimeter before I saw the MW!

Heard babys heart beat and cried (wuss!!)

Got told about having flu jab and whooping cough jab and the andti D and further blood tests. (not good for a needle phobic)

On the plus side the MW was all for me having a Home birth and said not to worry about the consultants appointment, that I should just be firm and say I understand the risks and still want a homebirth.
 
Creative, I was having déjà vu reading your post just now! Then it clicked that you're in the same fb group as me.

As for me, I'm loving feeling baby move. It's often when I'm sat at work, after getting a patient's infusion going, doing paperwork. The SPD is really doing a number on my hips, so seeing a physio tomorrow. Then anomaly scan on Thursday!
 
11-12 hours until the reveal ladies!!! :happydance: Ack! So excited!! I've decided I think I'm team pink. I was wrong with dd but oh well, lol. We'll see if I'm wrong again!

Thanks sweetie!!! I'm sooooo nervous and excited!!! Come on 1pm (central) lol
Just want to have a healthy baby but of course finding out the gender is the extremely fun part!! :)
 
Angel, you're driving me nuts ;) . I think central is only +1 hr for me? So I will soon be obsessively checking the thread :D
 
Well, after being sick for a few days, my bloat bump has turned into a mush bump. At least before the air inside made it feel firm and I could fake it...haha. Now I just feel flabby :p cmon growth spurt! (I'm sure I'll be eating my own words soon enough....)
 
:growlmad:

So my OB/GYN just called. Turns out, again, I have a marginal placenta previa!!! This means pelvic rest for the next 8 1/2 weeks, at least, until they confirm my placenta has moved away from my cervix.

This mean:

No arousal
No orgasms
No sex
No exercise other than light walking

After the friggin AWESOME orgasms I have been having up until now, it's gonna be hard to give up sex, even if we are only doing it once a week. :cry:
And I have been trying so hard to stay active, and now it feels like it's all down the drain. By the time 28-29 weeks comes along (at best), I will be feeling too big and tired to start all over again. I'm sad. It really is a friggin repeat of last time. Only this time add headaches and leaky boobs. :dohh:
 
That is utter pants but dont forget it turned out fine last time ie healthy baby and thats the most important thing chin up sweetheart
 
awww sorry Emily!!! xoxox That does suck I think I would cry if I was told pelvic rest!! :(

But like 2nd time said you had a healthy baby last time so that is the most important thing!!



AFM -- Scan went so so baby wasn't very cooperative. Laying facing my back, wriggling around like little worm. Probably going to have another scan because tech could not see the heart properly for pics or the brain or the cord but what she did see looked good. Heard heartbeat at 158!! Also she got a clear potty shot and said she was 70% sure i'm having a.......


GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


I have thought it was a girl all along so even at 70% I am pretty certain that it is going to be a little AMANDA GRACE!! :) :cloud9:

TEAM PINK!!!!!

I know... baby looks great, so that is the most important thing. Besides the pelvic rest, now it's one more thing to worry about. I had stopped checking my undies for blood, now I feel like I'm gonna be starting that all over again...

Last time my pregnancy was full of ups and downs (Danny with his cysts, I had the placenta previa thing, I was on gestational diabetes watch, he was very small *so they thought and they got all worked up. Turns out he was 6 pounds when he was born at 38 weeks, so had he made it to his due date he most likely would have been over 7 pounds). I was just hoping for a little easier time time this time around.

Oh well... baby will be here and it will all be irrelevant in the end.

so sorry for your woes!!! :hugs: I wish it was easier for you this time too!
 
I mean, with all of that I can't really complain. Despite all that, I was a low risk, and I know soooo many moms have it much worse and scarier!

I think you just have an idea of how you want your pregnancy to go, and it just gets disappointing when things don't go your way.

Did you tell FOB about the gender results????
 
Yay Angel that's exiting :) congratulations

Bubsmom sorry love that's tough :(
 
No I haven't... Kinda left his house in a huff last night because his stupid friend Joey was "joking" with me and hurting my feelings and I just couldn't take it anymore so I left. FOB texted apologizing and saying he was sorry and friend was sorry but the POS hasn't texted me ONCE today meanwhile for the last 2 months he has texted me the second he wakes up but not today!!! I want to text him something nasty I'm so mad!!

:'(
 
Bubsmom17 that sucks Hun!! On the plus side so glad your little man is okay and like you say it won't matter in the end :hugs:

In my oh so very humble opinion... FOB needs to cut the cord so to speak with his bestie and cool the bromance off. He just seems like he is out to cause drama between you and FOB.

Maybe FOB hasn't texted because he feels awkward about the whole situation... like he doesn't want to upset either of you, but it's clear that bestie is being an ass!
 
I texted FOB and said "no text all day? No good morning no good afternoon? What gives?" Answer "I've been running around since I woke up!"

And no kidding he needs to cut this bromance off ugh!!!! I agree friend is trying to cause issues between us! We hate friend!

Ummmm... did he know what today was? Or did he forget???
