December Rainbow Babies!!! Congrats New Mom scoobydrlp PINK!

Thanks everyone! I'm still super excited about getting to see LO yesterday. How fun! I'm pretty sad that I'm back to feeling sick again though. My MS was gone most of week 11 but now it's back in full force :( Misery!! I guess I should just be thankful for having almost a week of normalcy in between.

How's everyone else feeling?
 
Wow I was so behind on all the great news!! It's great to hear.

Had my 2nd appointment on thursday, got the hear the baby on the doctor's doppler (even though I have my own... I was always worried that what I heard wasn't really the baby or something!). But it looks like my doppler works because hb sounded the same on the doctor's doppler lol :). She said it was moving around a lot as she kept losing the heartbeat and had to look for it somewhere else :)

I think it's still too early but wednesday I thought I felt some sort of movement in my belly. It was very subtle but felt different than ligaments stretching or anything else. I told the nurse and said it was probably just in my head, but she said it's very possible it was the baby..!!

Can't wait to really feel it move! I'm going to be extra attentive in the next couple of weeks..

Have a great weekend everyone :)
 
Aww, sorry about the MS Scooby, hopefully it will go away for good soon.

Grenouille, fantastic! I am on high alert for any movement too and anticipate it any time now, how exciting!!!

I just hit 15 wks today and am feeling pretty good, I get heartburn all the time but just eat some Tums or papaya extract tabs and it helps. I have been getting terrible headaches from time to time though, it sucks only being able to take acetaminophen (Tylenol) since that doesn't do anything much. I think it may be worse when I don't drink enough water, it is really hard for me to get down anywhere near the recommended amount but I am trying...also lots of "pressure" down below on some days. Really weird feeling, like when you stand upside down and the blood rushes to your head (but in reverse of course :blush:). All in all though, no complaints! Wish a real bump would show up soon so I will quit looking chubby and start looking prego :)
 
I am still dealing with morning sickness too. I can't believe I still have it. Oh and I also have heartburn quite a bit too. Tums have become my best friend. I keep feeling little movements and wonder if that is the baby too. It is all so exciting.
 
Hi guys, how are you all doing today?
I am eventually starting to feel a bit better. The nausea is almost settled (unless I skip a meal) and I'm sleeping less than I was. Still exhausted and I have had some ligament pains in my low abdomen the last couple of days.
I am having no luck with the doppler this week. I would have thought at 13+6 I would easily find a heartbeat but either baby is moving about too much or he/she is too far away as I have not managed to hear anything since before my 12 week scan. Maybe next week.....

Hi Lala, Im feeling much better aswell. The nausea has went away and I feel I have more energy.
I have a doppler too and find it really reassuring when you find the heartbeat. But it can be tricky to find. My husband uses it as he's better at finding it. Its always really low down at the hairline and sometimes the baby only comes to the surface for a second then disappears back down again.
Last Saturday he found it straight away the minute he touched my skin with teh doppler which was just luck, cos last night I was getting quite worried it took ages to find it. They squirm about so much it can be tricky.
I only started using mines at 14 weeks.
 
Had my appt. today and took my midwife a few moments to find the hb, of course terrible things were running through my head but she found it, in the 150's! I asked if I could get my sonogram any sooner but the sonographer only comes once a month so I have to wait until August 6th :(

Feeling pretty good lately myself although the heartburn is awful and I know it will continue to get worse. Started to get in a cranky mood last night and OH ran me a nice bath, turns out it was just what I needed :)

Lala and Justkeep, glad to hear you are feeling better!
 
Still miserable here. I feel like this sickness will never end, and it's really starting to wear me down. I just want to be able to enjoy being pregnant. I'm still losing weight, down 11 pounds now. I just want to go to sleep and wake up in 6 months!

Sorry for complaining!
 
Oh my gosh scooby please dont say sorry, we are here to listen to eachother. I am in the same boat. It is wearing me out big time. I hope that the "feeling better" part is just around the corner for us. :hugs:

Thanks Justkeep,
Tried again last night with an empty bladder this time and found the HB after a couple of minutes. Nice and healthy around the 150 mark!!

Scooby - sorry you are still feeling yuk. I hope it passes soon for you.:hugs:

My latest grumbles are heartburn and a bit of backache. I know these are only going to get worse. Boo!! On a positive note, I managed to not have to get up to wee last night. Yipee!!
 
Anybody feeling movement yet? From time to time when I am lying still, like when I first go to bed, I can sense a very faint flutter but I am not sure if it is baby or just bubbles and things moving through. I will be 16w tomorrow so I am eagerly anticipating that "Aha!" moment...supposedly it happens earlier on with subsequent pregnancies, but it has been almost 9 years since my last baby so who knows now?

I *think* I felt very subtle movement last week, but it could have been all in my head.

It's weird because I feel like something is going on in there, but I can't really feel movement yet. Lots of ligament pains though. I have a feeling it's just a matter of days. It's really exciting :)
 
No movement for me either :( Am having lots of ligament pain which gets me all nervous! I know its normal but I cant help but worry! Hopefully I can start to feel the baby move soon, having done some research it seems that it starts around 18ish weeks for 1st time Mums so hopefully next week!

Not long now till my 20 week scan on the 2nd July, am so excited wish it will hurry up!

Have a good w'end everyone :flower:
 
Hi everyone, no movement foor me yet either.Im gettin very impatient. I was told at my last scan that i have an aterior placenta though which is at the front so can cushion any movement so that you dont feel it until later. Im still hoping at 18 weeks/ish though.
I get the ligament pains every now and again aswell!
 
I am so reassured that you are all getting ligament pains too!! I have been really uncomfortable the last couple of days and now also have some low back pain. I'm not expecting movements for weeks yet but can't wait until I do.
 
Some ligament pain here too. I also can't wait for that aha moment when I know for sure I have felt baby :)
 
Hi girls, sorry I have been absent for a while...I've been having issues and didn't want to bring the group down with my despair!!

I've feel movement recently. No flutterings, as I have a l,accents front and back but I've had half a dozen knocks and taps at the sides, one in particular was huge and made me feel sick! Can't wait for them to be more frequent!!

Found a heart beat on Doppler on Thursday night and I burst out crying, guess its still not sinking in!!

Anyone got any tips for heartburn? Mines a killer a the moment! Suffering the usual painful hips, back, tiredness and very short tempered!! Anyone else not very tolerant at the minute??

Bump is huge, I look about 6 months gone now. Nice for people to actually recognise you are pregnant rather than just fat though lol

Hope you are all well xxx
 
Hi everyone, I eventually took a bump pic, this is me at 17 weeks.
Donna, lucky you to feel some movement, Im getting very impatient. I guess its due to you having two kicking around in there!

Also it makes me feel normal that Im not the only one to be moody and short tempered at times, so many hormones rushing around.

Donna, I'm jealous! Can't wait to feel mine.

Justkeeptrying, very nice bump!

Everyday I wake up and I feel like mine doubled! I haven't taken a pic since week 13! I really need to take one..!
