Welcome ocean!!
Don't worry sweetie ur time will come we tried for exactly 1 yr I was going get clomid on April 9th then bam got pregnant I think what helped me is a lost 35 lbs and started working out...

Bex~ ur baby is so much bigger than mine... Wow ..

Hope* hi ya!!!!

Awwww, bubba! So cute & tiny but you can totally make out the shape! Argh, makes me so frustrated I haven't had a scan yet! By far the worst part is the anticipation. I'm going to flip out if they don't see a baby. And I'll probably flip out just the same *when* they do

I like the idea of a new thread name. But I also like that this thread is smaller - allows me to keep up with you lovelies

 

[bexxc]

when is your scan again? i wish your docs weren't acting like braying asses! i can't wait to see your healthy little bean!!!

It's on the 24th at 9AM - 13 days and counting!

I actually called around this morning and made an appointment with another doc - this one is an OB. That will be next Wednesday. I'm hoping to find someone who knows a bit more about fertility issues/loss and will take my concerns more seriously. I'm actually awed that nobody has even suggested taking my HCG/progesterone levels yet (except for my former midwife, bless her heart, who I couldn't go through since I moved out of Vancouver).

 

[bexxc]

i'm really shocked about that too. it makes me glad we were already seeing a fertility specialist who takes ttc and pregnancy very seriously!

Totally! I'm glad too, because then we get to see all the pics of your sweet little bean!

 

[annie00]

I'm just goin to a regular OB dr... So yea she is heartless at times and nice other times maybe it's my hormones lmao dunno...

I agree with u hope I like it small bc I know who is who but hell I don't like the name how about

St patties day bfp????

 

[bexxc]

sounds good to me
i know it's early, but i think i found the nursery furniture i want. i was looking at something from pottery barn because my brother gets a corporate discount, but i surprisingly didn't like any of their collections. i LOVE this one:

we're not buying anything yet, but it can't hurt to browse, right?

 

[hopestruck]

Sounds good to me too Annie!

Bexxc - what a gorgeous set! I love the dark, solid cribs. My friends got a crib from IKEA and it was just so blah! The nicer ones are $$ though!

 

[bexxc]

i also love that the set can "grow up" with baby as crib converts and changing table can later be used as a nightstand.

 

[annie00]

I totally agree bex we have ours picked out its a walmart peice and it's dark cherry sleigh bed with changing table and dresser underneath it... It's really cute and it changes into a toddler bed.. I'm 7 weeks and I already gained ten lbs I'm so upset!!!

 

[bexxc]

i've actually lost 4 lbs...but i'm on the chunky side and i've been eating a lot healthier since we found out. i'm scared to eat junk food!

 

[annie00]

Well i lost 35lbs started working out and all that then got pregnant...

I started at 195 lost 165 and now I'm at 178... I busted my but to get to my weight n within 3 weeks already gained weight it's bc I stopped working out bc I was having such a hard time but I went last night n walked half a mile.. But I'm gonna try to start working out... The worse part of it all is I'm really short I'm 5"2

 

[annie00]

All I want to eat is chicken noodle soup but that don't feel me up anymore so today I ate that plus two lean pockets oops now I'm bout to cook spahetti

 

[hopestruck]

I feel you guys....I don't weigh myself but I am guessing I've put on at least 5-10 lbs since becoming pregnant! I have just been listening to my appetite. I am 5'5 and about 125 normally so I'm OK. I went through a phase last year where I got super into working out - I was lifting weights (heavy lifting) and eating a low-carb diet. However, I stopped getting my period and it totally freaked me out! I thought to myself: I want to have kids, man! So I put the intense workouts on hold and decided that I'll get in crazy good shape *after* I have kids.

 

[annie00]

Okay so now I haven't spotted in a couple days and all of a sudden today I'm spotting little brown clots like one was floating in my water... Wtf I'm so ready for all this to stop!!!!! I had sex last night but nothing rough

 

[annie00]

Wow hope ur not big at all I wish I was ur weight... I have heard that intense working out can stop periods all together who new that's all we had to do to stop these things lol

Oh man, well don't worry about it, as far as we know your little bubs is totally healthy! Just keep an eye on it and if it turns red you know what to do.

LOL I know huh!? I only missed one period on it before I freaked out (thought I was pregnant, and BFN, LOL), so I have no idea how long it would have gone on for if I would have kept working out. But I think I have a super super sensitive hormonal system, so that's probably why it affected me so quickly. I know that months that I have been super stressed my period will often last 40-45 days (due to delayed ovulation I think).

 

[annie00]

Oh wow girl u do have a weird cycle like I can stress real bad
And still ovulate that's crazy how everyone is different ...

I'm gonna kep a eye on it just aggravates me
