Ultrasound was GREAT!! Measuring 2 days ahead. Saw him/her moving!! HR 170
Soooo relieved. Thank God only another week until my next scan. I have no idea how you ladies survive for weeks without scans. I'd die!!

 

[NavyLadybug]

Woohoo, Sophie!!!!

 

[jtink28]

I don't get another scan until 20 weeks now! Wahhh!!!!

 

[NDTaber9211]

Love it Sophie!

I'm 5'7 and 210. I was wondering the same thing about the baby bump. I think I won't show for awhile.

 

[KozmikKitten]

I am already regretting not taking my OB's offer for weekly scans. I had very strong symptoms on Monday and now I have none. So...yep. Wishing I had a scan booked for next week.

Great news on yours though Sophie!

 

[Sophie2015]

My little bean!

Sophie what a cute pic!!

 

[Sophie2015]

Thank you ladies!!

 

[Sophie2015]

Lala- hoping your scan went well today....

 

[babyjan]

Aww wow Sophie so cute! This is your 3rd scan right? I am yet to be scanned

 

[Sophie2015]

It is. Scanning me weekly because of my history of nothing but mmc's. If it happens again they want to know pronto so we can get genetics done. My previous losses were both too degraded for genetics.

How many weeks are you? When is your first scan? I know you must be so anxious!

 

[babyjan]

8+4 today

Yes I'm really nervous because I've had two early losses last year. My Dr told me at that time that I would be scanned around 6 weeks once I conceived but she's never mention anything about it now and I didn't even ask about it.

I have to wait to receive letter to find about my scan date which will be around 12 weeks (dating scan)

 

[Sophie2015]

Babyjan- my heart goes out to you! You must be going mad with worry and thoughts of "what if". Isn't there any way to get any earlier scan without waiting on your letter?!

I'm so sorry for your losses. They are so devastating by themselves but I've found I relive them to some degree with this pregnancy. It robs some of my joy. I hope the next few weeks fly by for you. I'm confident you have a healthy one this time. At some point the odds have to be in your favor. At least I keep telling myself that!!!

 

[babyjan]

Sophie I thought about going private. It would cost about £100 for early scan around where I live.

I'm definitely going mad with worry, every second I keep thinking what if something gone wrong or what if this is all in my imagination and there really isn't any baby inside. I fear I will go to my scan and see nothing

I'm really suffering with MS now and have been from 6 weeks so I guess that helps me feel better just a little but yes majority of the time I'm scared.


Thanks so much, your defo helping me feel better

MS is your friend in this case!! I'm betting this baby is doing just fine.

I have virtually no symptoms except terrible headaches that I had with both my mmc's. So without my scans I would totally doubt I was even pregnant.

It might be worth the peace of mind to pay for a private scan....

 

[NavyLadybug]

Cute little bean, Sophie!!!

 

[Lala77]

Taber - honestly I would tell people you are having back trouble and your doctor wants you to avoid medication management because it's highly addictive. Lol that's what I would do!!

Navy, when all is said and done I'm definitely being very public about my miscarriages. Right now the superstitious person in me is petrified to jinx this!

Congrats on all the awesome ultrasounds!!

I had a great ultrasound! HR 171 I'm now measuring 8 weeks as of yesterday. My progesterone is 23 and my HCG 66k+. I'm still waiting on my TSH levels.

So my coworkers know something's up ... I'm not drinking water (because it tastes like bum to me now). I've been drinking Gatorade and vitamin water. I was eating ritz bitz and starburst ... This baby is a junk pig. I rarely eat crap like that. It is stressing me out bobbing and weaving ... I've been directly asked multiple times and made up a hungover story! I can't say drunk for 5 more weeks! I might tell some people I work with closely but ask not to celebrate or regularly talk about it until I'm in a less risky zone.

I'm heavy and I was told I could only gain 15 lbs ... I was sooooooooo Sick with my daughter I gained 10 lbs from beginning to end. I did not put weight on anywhere but my belly ... I'm very hourglass. I didn't show until 7 months but i also didn't start wearing maternity clothes until then because I was able to wear my own clothes. When I look back at pictures I definitely had a few months where I obviously looked pregnant.

 

[coolbabe843]

Team Blue it is then comotion!!

Welcome, Coolbabe! What team are you rooting for?

WOOHOO Firsttimer!!!

I am going to say team purple, we dont care either way as we have one of each now...but if i had to lean one way or another I prefer a boy but I have a feeling its gonna be a girl

 

[coolbabe843]

as for the baby bump showing...I cant remember when I started to show with my other 2...I gained 60 pounds each time I do know that and have the flub of skin to show for it....this pregnancy I have actually lost 3 pounds somehow (no MS)...I feel like i have a bigger stomach but cant really tell as I am 173 pounds and 5'2

 

[Cornfieldland]

U guys r so brave telling everyone ur wieght I'm a bigger girl too and 5'9 and I am dreading weighing myself at the drs office. Just don't want to hear ur to fat and old to be pregnant I know they won't say it in those words.. I've been thinner and I've been fatter so it is what it is.

Woke up today with morning sickness screaming I'm here to stay! Why r toothbrushes so evil? I think toast will be my best friend for a while now.
