Buddies for Late January/Early February Babies!

[AmandaBanana]

I foresee her giving opinions. And I'm not keen to people disrespecting what I ask of them.
Like don't ask me the name.
So I'm in visioning an argument.

And for the next of kin thing, right!? Urg I can't even.

Work does suck some days more than others. Dh is so lucky to have the full leave. I get 14 which I know is what we planned. But I know I'll want to stay home with our boy all the time! Lol

We got a 2 bedroom apartment for November 1st! Wooooooo.
Walk in closet too. It's so nice.
I'm very excited to set up everything.
I love moving.
Yayy

Yay, that's awesome Amanda! We're hoping to have a new place by March 1st at the latest. And your MIL is nuts! Hope the visit goes better than expected...

Navy, love the new box! It's gorgeous and I totally see what you're talking about on the ultrasound pic. I hope your testing provides the answers you need to conquer this problem!!

Hopeful, your nursery sounds great! I talked to OH yesterday about getting rid of the big dresser so we could make that baby's corner and he was totally down with that. So that's something, I guess!

Flourish, sorry to hear you are still dealing with sickness! What a bummer hope the pills continue to help.

So yesterday I decided I had to make an appointment at the 4d place again cause I couldn't wait until January to see my baby. I've been able to see her kick now when I'm laying on my back and it is soooo cool! I will post a link to my photo album from my first peekaboo. The pics are so cute! She totally has my nose but Jason's cheeks and side profile.

Amanda - Yay! So happy that you got a new place!! Moving is fun, especially since you will get to decorate a nursery!

Michele - That is great he agrees to make a baby corner! It will be her special little place

 

[Hopeful.89]

Love Love Love the Album Michele! There are so many great shots!

I don't think we will get to see Bear until his arrival in January, but it is hard to believe it is only 3.5 Months away! I think we will find with the holiday seasons ahead it goes quick!

 

[Micheleb87]

Thanks! Yeah, I think it will fly by too! In a couple weeks we will be 2/3 of the way through, which really makes it seem like it's going by quickly I can't wait till she is here!! Then things like not having a proper nursery won't seem like such a big deal and won't really matter anymore. Everything will just be amazing :-D

 

[Flourish]

Yay on your new place Amanda! When can you move?

I'm sat having my GTT... Eugh the drink is vile!!!! I already threw up once this morning before I got here... Waiting 2 hours for the next blood test whilst tying to stop myself from being sick..

Have any of you had your GTT yet?

 

[AmandaBanana]

I'm moving halloween weekend!
Also have to do my glucose screening in the next 2 weeks. Probably this Saturday! It's the only day of the week I have 2 hours to spate :

My ribs are killing me!

You can now see our boy kick from the outside a bit. It's soo adorable and I'm so in love.

[Micheleb87]

I have to do mine in 3 weeks. I'm just going to go into the lab before my next dr appt so I don't have to make a special trip. My bottle of stuff they gave me is lemon lime flavored lol. I wonder why yours takes 2 hours? I only have to drink my stuff 45 minutes before I go to the lab and then have my blood taken exactly an hour after.

Amanda, fun stuff! I'll be babysitting all day/night on Halloween. Ha. At least the moving will be so worth it once you're done!

Navy, I definitely see a line! Especially when I'm not zoomed in and the pic is little. Congrats!

 

[NavyLadybug]

I'm honestly just kinda shocked and scared. I want to be excited but all I can think is "How long will it last?"

 

[Micheleb87]

I can imagine going through all this must take a huge toll on you physically, emotionally and mentally. I wish that knowing what was meant to be will be somehow made it easier or better, but I know it doesn't. I can only hope things will look up for you. And I really do believe that since you have had a healthy child that you can do it again. There are so many people who doctors believe will never get pregnant who go on to have a kid or kids!

 

[NavyLadybug]

Had my bloods done earlier this morning and today I'm 11DPO ( according to FF) and they came back at 22! I'm excited but really really nervous. I want to only be excited about a but my miscarriages seemed to have sucked the magic out of the moment

 

[Micheleb87]

What does that mean that they came back at 22?? Sorry if that's a dumb question lol.

 

[AmandaBanana]

Michele, apparently I go and they take blood, then I drink something and then they rest me again at 1 hour and 2 hours.
If I understood correctly anyways.

Navy that is a definite line!
Scary but exciting. We're all here for you! I believe this will be your angel ♡

 

[NavyLadybug]

22 was my HCG level, normal level for a non pregnant woman is less than 5 but typically 0 so a 22 means I'm definitely pregnant but really early which is expected of course since I'm only about 11ish dpo

thank you Amanda

 

[Micheleb87]

Amanda, I wonder why my test is different! That's so weird... I always assumed doctors did things the same when it comes to that stuff... Unless maybe they'll test me again after my dr appt? But I think I remember when my friend did hers recently, they only had to take her blood a second time because of the result that indicated she had developed diabetes. Weird...

Navy, that's great even though I already knew you were preggers after seeing that definite line ;-) but always nice to have no doubts. When do you get to go see that specialist? Hopefully they will have more preventative measures they can take to ensure this little one sticks for good!

 

[AmandaBanana]

Michele are you in Canada? I forget. Maybe that's why there's a difference? Places do it different I suppose.
Or perhaps I'm just wrong lmao
I'll let you know when I get it done

 

[NavyLadybug]

Michele, I have appt with the geneticist specialist next Thurs and my OB on the 30th

 

[Micheleb87]

Nope, I'm in Wisconsin lol. What about you?? Yeah, let me know how it goes!

Navy, so will the specialist then have results for you? Or is it just a consultation first?
