Great scan jfg!! Precious!

Shasuha my doc had me stop at 10 weeks and I had my appointment at 10 weeks 3 days and heard a very strong heartbeat. If you feel more comfortable taking it a little longer I don't think it would harm anything. I am 11 weeks and 2 days tomorrow and so far we are still blessed with a little one inside.

I hope everyone has a very merry Christmas! We all have so much to be thankful for this Christmas!

A late Merry Christmas to everyone.

Everyones scans look great and pic's too.

Back at work today and tomorrow then off on Fri. But I went to OB last thrus for my appt that he wanted me to come back on and he said he would do a pap and an US. We got in office sat down and he aske if I had any more spotting. (Last time I had a light light brown spotting the night before so i made the appt and my symptoms left). I told him no and no cramping except for when I get up to quickly or turn sharply. I asked if too early for round ligament pain he said yes. I asked about orgams b/c I do not want to have one till at lesat 2nd tri b/c last yr in Aug with the twins/triplets he did oral on me and the next day I mc one of them but still had a hb on one. He said if I do not fee comfortable with it then don't do it but if it does happen don't falut your self. He is really sweet but he confused me with a joke he made about he said the US sound tech was so excited about me having this US she was going to put some cute comments on it but then she was hurt when I refused an US then he said I am just kidding (which I already knew) but he then said I was done. No exam on US or anything. So I was a little confused he did said if I needed anything or I had any questions do not hesitiate to call at all. He then scheduled me to com back in 3 wks I would be 11 wks 5 days and he said we could try the doppler to hear the HB. I did't tell him I can already do that at home. I am hoping that that days the baby does not cooperate and he will send me for an US to hear it. If not I don't think I would have another US till 18 to 22 wks when I find out what it is.

Hi everybody not much to report still sick sick sick. I keep telling myself it will lessen soon:/ I have an appointment Friday and im going to ask if I can have a CVS. We will see hope everyone had a wonderful christmas

 

[srrhc]

Lots of great things going on in here. Sorry to those ladies who are still sick. Hopefully you are nearing the end of it. Does anyone have any appointments the rest of the week?

 

[mackjess]

I have one tomorrow. hoping they will check the heartbeat with the doppler while I am there. I should also be getting referred to a genetic counselor since I'm 35. I think I'll be getting a scan anywhere from 11-13 weeks with them for their tests. if not I'll be paying for a scan myself after 12 weeks. I want to make sure everything is good before I tell more people.

Yes I was because he told me when I went to see him at 6 wks 5 days that he would have me come back in 2 wks for a scan and pap but at this past visit he mentioned nothing about either. He did ask when do I go back to see my RE but I told him I graduated and am not going back.

 

[ladykara]

NT scan looked all is good, just have to wait for my blood test results to come through, they said if its high or shows a problem they would let us know over the phone within 72 hours otherwise we would just get a letter but the scan was clear, he also took a guess at the sex, he reckons its a boy and my confirmed due date is the 28th of June... Will post photos when I have my laptop xx

 

[Dollybird]

That's brilliant lady kara!! And a wee boy how lovely!! Did u have a feeling it would be a boy? Xxx

 

[ladykara]

I think I knew in 1995 this one would be a boy, just didn't believe the tarot reader, but she has been spot on with everything so far... So when I had Paige I new we would have one more and it would be a boy... Although my husband is still hoping its a girl, he wanted Paige to have a sister, he doesn't think brothers and sisters are that close growing up like sisters or brothers.... X

Well, I ordered one of the intelligender tests off Amazon, just for fun and because one of my friends swears by them She's used them twice and they were right.

You can take it at 10 weeks, which should be perfect since I was 10 weeks on Xmas. BUT, It didn't say it on Amazon, but you're not supposed to take it if you are on progesterone, which I am until Jan 14th, and you are supposed to wait 10 days after you quit taking progesterone before you test so that's Jan 24th! You are also not supposed to take it while on anti-biotics, which I am on thanks to sinus infection #3 (good golly I miss my Advil and Sudafed) until January 17th. So FML.

That is only about a week before I could possibly find out from a scan. I haven't decided if I am going to take it anyway, and maybe not tell DH and get his hopes up since the test could be wrong due to the hormones I'm taking. Waiting seems kinda silly since I'd only be able to take it about 4 days before a scan.
Urgh!!

 

[mackjess]

Lady Kara - Congrats on the boy! My DH wants a boy soooooo bad.

And tell yours not to worry about it. I have 3 sisters and 1 brother, and I am super close with one of my sisters and my brother. We just have the same personalities, where my other 2 sisters, god love em, are scatter brained and hard to take in large doses. He's also the closest to me in age, and we had a great time growing up even tho he picked on me like crazy.

 

[mackjess]

I decided to go ahead and take it, even though it says to use first morning pee. I figured it didn't matter since I'm on progesterone and anti-biotics anyway. It said boy, which is cool. I'm not going to tell DH though because he wants a boy soooo bad I don't want him to be disappointed. If I wasn't on the drugs I'd prob share with him. When I was asking friends about their babies heart rates to see if the higher ones ended up being boy/girl for them, he didn't want to know that either because he didn't want to get his hopes up. LOL. It seemed pretty mixed results on the heartbeat anyway.

For some reason, I've felt like it was a girl since about Thanksgiving. I was just sitting there thinking about getting to see friends and enjoying the holidays and WHAM this feeling washed over me and I was like OH Crap, I'm having a girl. DH will be bummed!! (for a second or two anyway)
