[CLOSED]*Snow Babies* EDD January 2013

[duckytwins]

I haven't bought anything yet - I'm still too nervous. Maybe when we pass the point we lost Tess?? The only thing we have left from when the boys were babies are their crib rails because their cribs turn into beds and we figured we'd give them their beds when they get their first place. Otherwise, I don't even have a bib to spare!

My sister "lovingly" told me I don't get a shower for a subsequent pregnancy (even though she got one for her second), but I have a friend who wants to throw me a "sprinkle."

I have very little left from when ds was a baby so will need everything. My sis has a crib and changetable still so that I will get and my SIL has a bassinet. I will have a shower for sure on my DH side as it's his first, not sure about my side as I had when 9 years ago. I'm going with a minimalist attitude as I had way too much stuff for ds.
Here is bean yesterday with a nice strong hb of 181:

I forgot to upload this on this thread, I had my ultrasound yesterday and this is my little one. My dates were right on, 11 weeks today even though I have a longer cycle. The babies heart rate was 167 BPM. I ate a banana before hand so the baby was hopping all over the place. My knees started shaking when I heard the heart beat for the first time, it was magical. This whole pregnancy feels so real now that I've met my baby. I also lost 6 pounds between yesterday's appointment and my appointment the previous Friday. I really hope this aversion to food in general lets up soon. Everything looks perfect and normal. My doctor said, "Wow, that's a strong heartbeat!" That made me so happy.

Stupid people!!!

I'm starting to feel better, so I've started exercising again. I get to see my baby again on Monday at my NT scan with the specialist. Can't wait to see my little one again and see how much its changed in 10 days. Probably not much, lol, but I'm still excited.

Aw I don't have my scan for another week.. All my symptoms have gone..it's making me little nervous tbh x

Terri-I wouldn't worry about the no symptoms, the placenta has probably taken over and therefore your hormones are starting to plateau/decrease. My bb's haven't been that sore for almost a week and now I'm just waiting for this god awful m/s to take a leap. I'm sure all is fine with you and baby, now you can start to really enjoy being pg as 2nd tri is usually bliss.

AFM-I saw my dr yesterday for a follow up after my scan and I have lost 5 lbs since the last visit so she gave me a rx for Dilectin. I am going to fill it today b/c I'm tired of feeling sick all of the time. I want to enjoy food again. I did hear that it makes you really tired, has anyone taken it before?

My sister had to take it for her whole pregnancy, but the doctor wouldn't assure her that it wouldn't effect the baby and now my niece's digestive track barely moves, so she throws up almost constantly, and they are trying to fix my 3 month old niece and they don't know how. My sister is nervous that it caused it, but there is no proof either way.

 

[Indiapops]

What is it ?

 

[brieri1]

dilectin

 

[Indiapops]

Yeah I've never heard of it...

 

[ReadynWaiting]

What is it ?

It's an anti-nausea drug they recommend for m/s.

I'm not sure if I'm going to get it or not. I'm tired of feeling like crap and hating food but I would hate if it affected the baby in any manner. I think I can deal with it for another couple of weeks.

We're home from vacation! We had lots of fun, but I think I got a UTI and I'm on Keflex for it. Drinking cranberry juice and eating yogurt to try and help, too. On our last night, we went to the beach and wrote Tess's name in the sand to have a wave wash it away. It was the hardest thing I've ever done, and we all cried (including the boys), but we needed to do it. It was our closure. Jonathan added his own piece to it, then both boys said goodbye and Jonathan blew her kisses. I have some pictures if anyone would like to see.

I am 12 weeks today and definitely starting to feel anxious. All the bad things started happening to Tess around this time. I'm scared, nervous and questioning everything. (I question a lack of symptoms, an additional symptom, my discharge, how much my boobs hurt during the day, everytime I move funny and feel something, every cramp, everything). I'm trying so hard to believe boop is okay though. My NT scan is this coming Wednesday and DH can't come (he'll be in California on a business trip), but I have a few friends and my cousin (Boop's godmother) who are all willing to come with me.

My scan is today at 2:45pm! SO NERVOUS/EXCITED! It is only 6:40am now and I have to go survive a day of work first!
