August '14 Sunflowers. 27 angels. 48 pink, 28 blue. 74 HERE!!

i have been so fortunate to not have any bad symptoms during first trimester, but i'm feeling beat up by second tri already! i'm WAY more tired, i feel like breathing is a task, and my brain has left the building. and i'm fit enough to continue spinning 3x a week, but walking to the bathroom tuckers me out. and the peeing - whoa. i'm not sure if it was me or baby who had a growth spurt, but my bladder is getting the brunt of it. sigh, c'est la vie. i'm still so amazed and grateful and happy to be pregnant, i just didnt expect this!
 
Had a baby appointment today & heard the heartbeat perfect in the 160s :cloud9:
 
Im almost certain my m/s has actually gotten worse since hitting 11-12 weeks, Im hoping its just peaking before getting better! Hope all you ladies are doing well
 
My MS seemed to be the worst from 12 to 14 weeks. Now it seems to be fading (knock on wood)

Will catch up and update the thread later today! Off to an appointment for bloodwork!
 
I haven't really been sick at all but this last week or so I'm a lot more gaggy, hoping its just a peak in hormones also!
 
urrggghhhh I feel so ill today :( Not sick but if I hadn't already had the flu jab I would think I was getting the flu :( DH is at work till 11pm tonight but DD is in bed now just trying to get DS to go bed.

How is everyone else feeling?xx
 
Had my second midwife appointment yesterday, it went well, can't beleive it had been 8 weeks since my last one! Flown over! Heart baby's heartbeat which was 152 :)

My sickness has pretty much gone now thank god, I do get nauseous now and then but nothing like it was which I'm so thankful for. I can't remember which week it was but I'm sure mine also got worse before it got better so hang in there ladies!
 
Here's our 12 weeks pics :) Was hoping she'd have a guess at the gender, but said she couldn't really tell yet.

Flu jab doesn't protect against every strain of the flu; only the one the doctors reckon will be most common, so it is quite possible you are getting the flu still! Xxx!!!

15 weeks today! (Yeah I know my ticker is off, it is in a different time zone to me!!) And the last few days I have been feeling flutters of possible baby movement!!! Nothing to be sure of, but it makes me excited anyway.

Tired! So tired! And very scatter brained... I'm working very hard to not appear daft at work, but I'd just like to lay down and nap instead ;)
 
I am so tired too. I am usually in bed as soon as my girls go down. I am also so "gaggy" in the morning and really only throwing up about once a week. Hoping that stops soon, not the greatest way to wake up! Hips are getting sore too at night. I remember how sore they were during my last pregnancies, so was waiting for it. I hit 15 weeks and the pain started! Oh the joys! Haha.
 
Lovely scan Ashley :)

Got my gender scan tomorrow, I'm so excited!!!!

I'm worried though incase they turn around and say they can't tell yet! I'll be 16 weeks and 3 days!

I'm hoping so! We're 15 weeks today, I told our OB I'm still feeling sick but he said it 'should' go away soon... at least get a little better, all I said was 'I hope so!!' lol

WanaBaba - So excited for your scan! :D Hope your little one is co-operative :D I can't wait until we all find out what we're having ^_^

We had to go visit the women's hospital an hour away and register with them as a 'just in case' thing since my son was premature, but while we were there they also discussed a few other things they wanted to do on top of what my OB is already doing.
First they want me to start getting weekly shots of '17 Alphahydroxy Progesterone Caproate'. They say it's 'supposed' to prevent pre-term labor. It's not 100% but it's something to try and there's no risk to it thankfully. The first shot my OB is going to have to do, but they're going to show OH how to give them to me so I don't have to go in every week to have it done and OH can just give them to me at home.

The other thing they want from us to start having my cervix measured on a bi-weekly basis. They said they'll have me start going in on March 11th, when a local office associated with the hospital opens up in my town (thankfully) rather then drive an hour back to their hospital every two weeks to have the measurements done. They want to make sure my cervix doesn't shorten... and if they find that it does, they're talking about doing a surgery to have it stitched shut. Good news though is they probably won't have to do it but they want to 'cover all their bases' and make sure our little bugger comes out when it's time and not before :)
 
Hey aeris and Alex sounds like they are taking good care of you, better to prepare for the worst and hope for the best.

Aw cute pic Ashley!

I'm starting to get a little bump now and going to buy some maternity clothes this weekend as my smart trousers for work are getting uncomfortable.
