April Diamonds!! [2016 Rainbows]

I'm doing ok, thanks firsttimer. Tired and sick as dog with MS but otherwise fine haha
 
I'm hitting 7 weeks tomorrow. It took 1 day someone to leak the fact I'm pregnant to everyone at work. I'm pretty mad about it. Now everyone will know if something goes wrong. I really wanted to try and keep it a secret for as long as I could.
 
I'm hearing different things. One says a manager let it slip because they have to change the schedule to accommodate it. Another says my friend let it slip because she is so excited for us.
 
Maybe it was both? :( I'm sorry, sweetie, BUT once a HB is heard the chances of a MC go down drastically to only 2%. Once 8 weeks is reached, it goes down even further to 1% and once 12 is reached is goes down to only 0.1%. Just hang in there sweets, not long to go!!
 
Thanks navy. Hopefully when my Doppler gets here I'll be able to find a hb and it will ease my mind. 17 more days until next scan.
 
Just remember with a Doppler, that before 10 weeks it can be hard, so if you don't find it right away, don't freak out :)
 
hope you ladies are well. i've been incredibly sick - in bed all day, every day, except when my husband is at work and i force myself out of bed to watch my son. i've thrown up so many times in public now that i can't count. the diclegis i was prescribed takes the "edge" off, but i still don't ever feel good. i've lost 3-4 pounds now, since i can't really eat. the only thing that ever stays down is top ramen noodles. so much sodium, but it's something in my belly. i'm so so so so so so so ready for the 2nd tri!!!
 
Oh no taber :(

Tink, I know how bad MS can be, I'm hoping better days come SOON! Can you ask your doctor about something else (phenergan, reglan, Zofran)?

As for me, sour stomach and SO tired, but otherwise I am ok so far! Scared because I had hyperemesis last time, but praying this pregnancy is easier on me.
 
Be careful with Zofran ... I heard there is a class action suit because it caused birth defects.

I'm nervous about the genetic testing :0( I get it done next week... Navy, what was the more indepth testing you ask for? I want to make sure to ask.
 
Can I still join?
I am currently 7 weeks pregnant, EDD April 25th ~ ish I would say. There was some confusion about the date but I am pretty sure baby implanted late (I charted the first 5 weeks).
Am a bit worried about this one. I conceived 8 days after my miscarriage had started. I have been achy and crampy and even bled once...but so far it seems the pregnancy is progressing.

We would be team purple. I have a son and enjoyed having a boy so much I would not mind another mama's boy :) But of course a girl would be a different special experience. I always wanted to have a few of each gender ;)
 
Lala, I'm having Panorama done, its a simple blood draw (Not invasive like CVS or Amnio) Others that are similar are MaterniT21, Informaseq, Verifi, Harmony and more. It tests for Chromosomal and Sex Linked Disorders as well as Micro Deletions.


Marumi, of course you are welcome! I would take a guess that instead of implanting late, you Ovulated later that you might think. You can show Ovulation signs (included with your BBT and Cervical Mucus) up to a week before actual O and your body can actually try to ovulate more than once. I had a MMC in June. I THOUGHT I O'd only 10/11 days after, turns out I was off by a few days. Hopefully a dating scan will reveal more for you soon! :)
 
Hi ladies :) just had my 2nd ultrasound at 8 1/2 weeks and baby was waving its tiny stumpy arms at me! Omg im so in love :) measuring 2cm long and heartrate 150bpm. I am now set free from the ivf clinic and im a normal pregnant woman :) wooohooo!!!

Welcome Marumi
 
Welcome marumi! We have the same edd :).

I'm so sorry for you ladies with horrible ms. I wish I had advice to offer.

Lovely news hopeful cat! Any scan pics?

It's it harder to get good pictures on ultrasounds when you are overweight? I'm worried about my belly messing it all up.
 
Thanks ladies :) ill try and take a photo of my sonogram but might be pretty fuzzy.

Ndtaber...ive only had internal ultrasounds so far. But I wouldnt imagine itd be any problem :)
 
Thanks navy!

Awesome hopeful cat!!!

Welcome marumi!!!
 
Thanks everyone for the warm welcome!! :)

Interesting that the body can ovulate more than once. What happened for me is that I am very sure of the conception date. With every baby when I conceive I have a night where I suffer through bad cramps (I never cramp for anything), nausea, pressure on my cervix and pelvis and fatigue. After that night I had daily pregnancy symptoms and MS. I continued to chart and kept and eye on my temperature rising. I had another night about 11-12 days after conception that was horribly painful with cramps and all again. I thought I was miscarrying. But the next day I got a faint BFP and from then on the line darkened. My pregnancy symptoms became more intense after this day as well so I put it down as implantation day.
I had similar with my son. I only had sex on one day but at a scan he measured smaller...however, I knew I did not have sex at a later time so maybe that was late implantation as well.

I am hoping it is that because the doctor said either the baby stopped growing or it implanted late...:( There was no heartbeat and baby measured 5+6 instead of 6+6 on my last scan.
 
If you go back to earlier pages, my bean measured a week behind as well at only 5+1 instead 6+1 and 2 weeks later baby had mostly caught up (this is how we figured out I O'd later than I thought at 13 days after my MMC instead 10/11) There's was no HB at my first scan either, before 6w it can be hard to find one! Good luck on your next scan some beans are just slow starters!


Also, Taber, weight really doesn't affect abdominal u/s unless you weigh over 350 generally. And even at that weight, it generally doesn't affect an internal :) With DS my weight never interfered with any of my ultrasounds :)
 
Welcome to the new ladies! We are happy to have you here in our group!

Hopeful - congrats on the scan news! That is fantastic!

AFM - just sitting here waiting for another scan. Will be in 2.5 weeks! I have very slight nausea at times and sore nipples. Other than that, nothing much going on with me. Just keep trying to stay positive. I did end up telling my mom over the weekend. Hubby didn't want to tell anyone until after our 10 week scan, but I just had the opportunity and decided to tell my mom.
