Babies due in JUNE!

Hmmm gonna go make me a new one!


Woohoo! Brings me that much closer! Thanks! My math brain couldnt handle figuring it out!
 
just sharing.... I have been searching high and low for yoga near me. its either the location that turns me off, or the price or the scheduling that just doesnt suit me, so today I went to Best Buy and bought a prenatal DVD called Element Prenatal Postnatal Yoga. It was only 30 min long, but it was enjoyable and easy to follow.

Tomorrow I am going to buy another one Called Prenatal Yoga with Shiva Rea.....

Just thought Id shart and send some motivating love!
 
Hope everyone has been enjoying their weekend! From catching up on posts, it sounds like things are continuing to go well for everyone.

I just got back from a weekend with my parents. It was Mom's birthday on Friday, so I told her about the pregnancy by framing a photo of the scan and wrapping it as her gift. Definitely nervous about how they'd take the news, but they were both over the moon. Mom spent ALL Saturday coming up with possible baby names. We're going with a Celtic name (I'm Scottish), so she poured over her Scottish history books for ideas. Yes, she actually suggested "Mungus" :haha: I think we've talked her out of that one. But talking about this with my parents, instead of just here or with DH, is definitely making it more real in my mind!

Aww thats lovely. Im Scottish too but have never in my life heard the name Mungus!! Did she mean Menzies (pronounced Mingis?) Bad name for sure!! lol Angus and Archie are the most popular Scottish Boys name going round at the moment I think. What a lovely birthday pressie for you Mum. x

Menzies was on the list as well, along with Angus, Stuart, Douglas, and a slew of others. I think Mungus was a Roman governor or something. Dad and I couldn't stop laughing about "Little Mung" and all the horrible nicknames that could come with it. However, there could also be "Well-Hung Mung" in college....

Hee Hee. No wonder Ive never heard of it then. Should be illegal calling a child that! What an absolutely awful name!! lol
 
It went well...little bean was measuring a little smaller at 7w2d, but hb was 146! Very thankful. :happydance: :thumbup: New due date is June 16, probably, but we have another scan in two weeks so we will see if the due date still stays that way.

Congrats! Let me know if/when you want to change the date.

I am okay with changing it now. It seems logical that when I went in for my first blood test that the nurse told me that I was very early...I think I would have only been 3w5d at that first test. I don't think my cycle was a straight 28 days and I probably ovulated later. Thanks!
 
Got it. The 16th is shaping up to be THE day on this thread. So far it has

According to today's appointment, I should be listed under the 16th as well! The OB is going by LMP, but I know I ovulated after day 14. While they have the 16th in their records, I'm sticking with the 19th. Though I'm not sure what 3 days difference will make one way or the other.
 
So, I live in a large city and take public transportation on a very regular basis...and I have to say, my super-bionic crazy sense of smell these days is making me a little crazy. :wacko: I needed to move twice on the same bus yesterday because I thought I was seriously going to lose my lunch...and this morning, the woman sitting next to me smelled like a weird mix of moth balls (or bengay) and perfume. I wanted to die and couldn't figure out a way holding my breath for the entire 20 minute ride. I am so thankful for my symptoms, but oh, it makes me consider driving everyday to work.
 
Just got back from my first OB appointment! Heartbeat was 165 beats per minute (maybe 166). According to LMP, I am 7w 6d but the baby measured 8w 3d on multiple measurements. My OB said she enters all of the measurements and my LMP into her computer and it has a program that then calculates the due date. I was given a due date of 6/12/2012, which is a day earlier than what the online due date calculators gave me.

Looking fwd to the NT ultrasound in 3 weeks!

Ugh! Just reading this made me nauseous. I feel for you. Where do you live in Chicago? I lived in Lincoln Park for a few years after college.

I'm assuming you live in Chicago since your location says Illinois.

Ferne, I do live in Chicago! I live in Lakeview and work downtown. The climb up the el stairs almost did me in this morning, but the smell of the train....UGH. :sick: And then there are the smokers...standing everywhere outside their offices blowing all the secondary smoke in the air which whirls around and hits me in the face, totally making me want to throw up. Sorry to complain so...the sense of smell thing is really my only big symptom when pregnant. My daughter's dirty diaper the other day almost did me in too.
 
What a great place to live and raise kids! I miss Chicago. You're a Cubs fan, I hope.

Sadie's in NYC and I'm sure she's dealing with some of the same problems given her sense of smell is as sensitive as yours. At least the cold should take care of some of those smokers soon...right? Maybe not.
 
Ladies, have any of your obgyn's started to discuss when they will start doing testing for downs syndrome? I think I will do the quad screening and go from there. What are your opinions?
