I'm feeling a little better today, thanks for asking ladies! Still sniffly sneezy coughy, but fever is gone. I was able to make it to work, and am halfway through the day. I think I'm gonna live!

Congrats on the beautiful scan pics!!

 

[hopefulthstym]

hope everyone has a wonderful day today!

So many cute scan pics! This makes me happy!

I have to go in for blood test today, they got my results from a week ago and apparently my thyroid is a bit high. They say it's borderline. I'm not sure if I should be worried?? I never had a problem before. Anyone got thyroid problems?

 

[Krippy]

I have Hashimoto's and I am on Synthroid to keep my thyroid under control. I developed thyroid problems after my son was born and had none before that. My thyroid is under active right now but goes through stages of being overactive. If it is borderline I wouldn't worry too much but keep track of your levels when you do see your Dr. it is nice to know what they are for your own records. Thyroid often are effected during pregnancy...Hope you get some answers soon! If you have any questions feel free to ask me!

Thanks! That's reassuring. I hope it doesn't develop into anything serious. I'll try not to worry. At least, they are keeping track of it.

Justkeep and Lala, so glad to hear you had happy visits! I love all the good news lately

I finally had my 12wk appt. yesterday and heard a nice strong heartbeat of 160! We could hear the baby kicking with the doppler too, that was really cool. Finally got my bloodwork, etc. done too so hopefully all results will come back good. Don't get to have another sonogram until August 6th (!) so it will be a looooong wait...at least hearing a good heartbeat is reassuring until then.

Hope everyone has a nice relaxing weekend.

 

[grenouille]

Very happy for you Crancherry!

 

[love1623]

Congrats crancherry ! It's so great hearing a strong heartbeat

 

[hopefulthstym]

Congrats Crancherry!! that's so cool that you got to hear baby kick!

Brilliant news Crancherry. Its great to have good positive news on here. Jeez that seems quite a while you need to wait until your next scan.
I wont have another scan for 6 weeks aswell. I dont know how I'll cope as they have been so good to me up until now scanning me every week.
My dilema is whether to buy a doppler aswell for reassurance. Ive been looking at them on Ebay!

 

[grenouille]

I'm so excited!!! I just got my doppler in the mail. I couldn't even wait for OH to get home (he works late).

I wasn't sure what I was hearing was the baby's heart at first, so I had to check up other heartbeats on youtube. It sounds exactly like that!!

I'll have to try not to use it too often now. I don't know if it can be dangerous? I'm scared to try it again!

 

[love1623]

Yay Grenouille! I love using mine as well ! Such a great peace of mind knowing everything is ok I've read you can use it once a day for a few mins.. I do no more then 5 min ... They say if u get a FDA approved one they are perfectly safe

 

[Donna_barnes]

Which dopplers have you guys got??xx

 

[love1623]

I got the sonotrax.. 3mhz probe.. Works great and it's FDA approved

 

[grenouille]

I have the angel sound... it said it was FDA approved on ebay but now I'm not sure because it doesn't say so on the box. It's CE approved though...

I almost don't want to use it, but I know a lot of people do.

 

[love1623]

Grenouille I have heard angel sounds is a good one as well.. Not sure if it's FDA approved tho... I would check their website

 

[katestar53]

I had kinda decided not to get a Doppler but want one now!! What's the cheapest and best one to get in the UK?

 

[LalaR]

Not sure Kate. I think Argos have a cheap one and Boots a slightly more expensive one. I plan to borrow the one I use at work and save a bit of cash.

How is everyone feeling today? I woke up yesterday and something had "shifted" and it felt all day like my bladder was being totally squished. Lots of pressure "down there" if you know what I mean. Not so bad this morning but it was pretty uncomfortable all day. Other than that, no more nausea and heartburn seems to have left me alone lately, and boobs not really sore now either. Yay!

I did have a horrific dream last night about losing the baby and completely expected to wake up to it being reality. I guess your subconscious carries on with your fears whether you feel them up front or not...wish dreams right now were a little less vivid though...
