Hi All, hope everyone is well. Thinking of you Stranjgirl, hope all is well xxx

 

[StranjeGirl]

Thanks for your nice thoughts guys. Everything turned out ok!! For now at least. When I told my doctor what happened he said the heavy bleeding plus the clot concerns him, but then he looked at my cervix and said he could see a bunch of brown clumpy stuff in there but it was still closed, which made him feel more optimistic. The scan showed a growing baby with a beating heart! I was very surprised as the bleed I had was very heavy. I am going back in a week, but there was nothing on the ultrasound that showed any problems. He said it may have come from where the placenta attached. I am happy that every thing is ok, but I hope this roller coaster ends soon!!! I go back in a week so it makes me feel more comfortable that I have another appt right around the corner. I have had 7 ultrasounds already lol!!! This is ridiculous! Thanks again for your good thoughts!
It sounds like all of you are feeling well!!! Looking forward to hearing about your upcoming scans!

 

[Tobaira]

what a relief! Glad everything turned out ok Stranjegirl!!

 

[LadyL]

So glad to hear the good news stranjegirl!! I'm sure everything will be well from here on out!

Well we ended up telling my parents today. They were just the right amount excited if not a little less, but I think that's because dh and I were so nonchalant about it. But it will be their 5th grandchild and they knew we were trying so I guess no big shock (vs my brother and sister who both got pregnant before getting engaged/married).

Haven't bought anything, but since I have a 4.5 and 3.5 yr old niece I do have plenty of hand me downs - I think there's a crib, 2 car seats, a playpen and some other stuff upstairs.. in really good shape too. Just will have to double check to make sure there are no recalls.

Sorry to hear about that girl Trixie I actually did tell 2 friends at work. But that's it I'm done telling people for at least a month unless my sister guesses since I don't want to lie about it - and dh gets to tell his parents tomorrow since we told mine.

LadyL I think I did mine by LMP but since I o'd the 15th or 16th either way it's pretty close.

welcome fizzio =)

the pram thing is funny. I somehow knew what it was but am still bothered that I can't figure out what Trixie meant when she said "it's bloody baltic here" - does that mean rainy or hot and humid or?? We drove through Ireland for a week on our honeymoon. Actually I shouldn't say we drove. DH did all the driving - I was terrified to drive on the opposite side of the road!! The weather there was funny for us, it was nice out when we drove but every time we stopped to get out of the car and walk around it rained lol!! I have a lot of pictures of us soaking wet at different places! I still would love to go back - it was so much fun. Plus we missed the northwest corner and didn't spend anytime in Dublin. Next time..

if you have been in good old ireland then you will know the weather here is cold, damp and its supposed to be summer!!! lol!!!

We got so lucky in Ireland. We went last april 2010 for our honeymoon and the first few days were very very cold (baltic, lol) and then the sun came out and it was beautiful!!!! It was beautiful in the cold and rain too, but we definitely appreciated the sunshine!

god i wish there was sunshine, its so miserable today....mind you its warmish....around 16 degrees!!
im so glad everything is ok stranjegirl xxx

So exciting non-baby related news,
DH finally got offered a job!!!

He's been out of work for 7 mos now and had some personal thing about not wanting to take unemployment so.. it was definitely time for him to get one (or I was going to make him suck it up and file)! That really helps alleviate some stress.

And my brother and brother-in-law both got jobs within the past few weeks (my mom joked that all the men in our family were being supported by their wives). So June has turned out to be a really good month for the family so far. Hoping it stays that way. Maybe I should go buy a lottery ticket or head out to the casino!!!

[Tobaira]

mine is 13th Feb

Hope everyone is doing well. I'm just beat this morning. I even went to bed early and I still am soooooo tired. I had such busy dreams all night long that it really feels like I haven't slept a wink. Besides that I've been pretty good. Only get mild nausea when I haven't eaten for awhile or after I take my prenatal. But I'm only at 6 weeks today so.. Have my first doctor's apptmt Friday. I'd be excited about it but I just want to sleep lol. Maybe I can sneak in a nap today since I'm working from home.

 

[LadyL]

Mine is Feb 12th.

How is everyone else doing?
I've really not had any symptoms other than sore boobs and cramping, both of which are on and off. I just stay hungry all the time!! Maybe a little nausea would do me good! Haha! My scrub pants are already getting a little snug!

 

[Claire1]

Hi All, my edd is 31st jan.
Ive been really well, apart from feeling really tired all the time. Also dont know what wrong with me, but I have been in such a bad mood for days now. Need to snap out of it! Anyone else been a bit stroppy...or just me ha ha x

Ha ha I had the exact same symptoms and wanted nausea to hit so I would stop eating like a pig. The nausea hit at close to 7 weeks and did not stop my appetite at all!!! I am eating more
now than before, so now I just feel fat and sick!!!

My edd is January 7th.
Hope everyones scans go well!! I have one tomorrow and then my nt test on Friday! Very nervous!! I know so many people who got false positives!! I had another minor bleed yesterday, but I think it was from my cervix as it was after a bm (sorry tmi) we'll see tomorrow. Good luck everyone!!!

 

[Tobaira]

hope everyone is well today. Claire here's a and a to help brighten your mood - because how could you be in a bad mood after watching a bunny dance... lol

ugh I had my first decent bout with being sick last night. Worst thing was being hungry at the same time. I cannot imagine feeling like that everyday so I'm hoping it's just occasional. Not as tired today though which is nice.

And... today is our 3rd wedding anniversary =) we went out to a nice dinner to celebrate Friday, so tonight will just be low key with mac and cheese casserole (because we both love it so much) and probably watching one of the Harry Potter movies. Is it sad that I'm really looking forward to it? ;-P I guess I never have been accused of being normal.

 

[trixie79]

im a huge harry potter fan, so your not weird at all!!! unless you wer talkin abt the casserole!!!!!!

Well that has def cheered me up, lol. Cute bunny. My mood has improved, just hadnt felt myself at the weekend, but back to my normal smiley self!
Hope you're well and your morning sickness will pass quickley!

 

[StranjeGirl]

Hope everyone is well!

I went in for an ultrasound today and all is well! Although my dr is convinced I am having a boy, and I had already bought the baby a very adorable tutu bathing suit It's too early to tell, so I have a feeling he is wrong!

I too have been feeling so sick and so hungry at the same time. My mouth is watering reading about a mac and cheese casserole!!!! I have already gained 4-5 pounds. I promised myself I was not going to be one of those pregnant women who gains a bunch of weight, and I already am!! My stomach is big and I can barely button my pants. Oh well, I guess it's getting time for maternity clothes!

 

[lilrojo]
