December Snowflakes 2015! Come join me 74 ladies, 10 angels, two sets of twins!

[AngelOb]

Elma, that's a good idea. I can't believe they were booked so far ahead of time for appointments where you are. I go in today for blood and am planning on booking my scan before I leave. Once I have a better idea of how far along I am based on levels I'll know when I want to schedule the scan. Honestly I could have conceived on time based on cd1 being surgery and be almost 7w right now I have no idea. I just feel super early.

So sorry to hear Brandi I hope you get your soon

Huge hugs brandi, hope to see you back in first trimester soon!

Congrats to the new ladies joining us!

I just booked in with GP for Tuesday morning when I will be 4+6. I was thinking to wait until I was closer to 6 weeks but I decided to go a little earlier to try and avoid getting the 12 week scan 3 weeks late like last time.

Good Morning ladies, Congrats and welcome to all of the new December mommas.

Brandi, I am sorry to hear the witch arrived but I am glad you have such a positive attitude about it and understand that maybe your body's not ready. I'm sure you'll get your sticky baby in no time!

 

[Brittahnee]

I hope so too. I think that maybe my body just isn't ready yet. The witch is 3 days earlier than expected.

I think there's also the possibility that I DID conceive and because my cycles are still wonky from having my son in July, the witch just overtook instead.

My two miscarriages happened when my daughter was 6 months old and 8 months old, and I finally got my keeper when she was 1 year old. Since September 2013, my body has gone through a tubal reversal, pregnancy, and c-section. It probably just needs more time to recover.

I'm honestly a little shocked that it didn't happen, because it's happened on the first try with my donor twice now, so I'm chalking it up to my body just not being ready yet. Gonna try again for next cycle and if it doesn't happen then, then I'm going to wait until my son is a year old before trying again.

Take care ladies!!

Wow Brandi! This is shocking! If there is any positive to this at all, you can look forward to a new year baby now instead!!! Keep your body healthy first and baby will come when the time is right!

Nausea hit me in full force last night. I had to send hubby to the gas station at midnight for ginger ale but they didn't have any now I'm in that awkward limbo where I'm super hungry but also nauseous. Ahhh pregnancy.

 

[Twinmum87]

Oh bless ya Britt! Not fun is it! I had awful sickness in previous pregnancies, no where near as bad this time round! Not yet anyway lol! Glad thou as I can't stand ginger so nothing really work to ease it! Hope you don't have the 'morning' sickness (seriously who came up with that name, morning my rear!) for too much longer.

 

[Brittahnee]

I wasn't expecting "morning" sickness so soon. Oh gosh, seems I have quite the road ahead of me! I'm not vomiting yet, it's just that super annoying lingering queasy feeling at the moment!

 

[indhira2]

ladies, unfortunately I've added myself to the nausea group. couldn't finish my banana this morning without feeling like I was going to have to pull over and vomit.

Although in my case.....I'm secretly happy for it!! Last time, I had no nausea no symptoms whatsoever but sadly that ended in my mc so i am grateful for anything thats different this time around!

 

[Brittahnee]

That's the worst! Knowing you need to eat but just not being able to do it! I think I might cook myself some homemade chicken and rice soup, I found a recipe I'm dying to try!! I also have allergies kicking up big time, either that or a cold in the making! I got up to pee this morning and coughed, but I had to cover my mouth immediately because the cough nearly gagged me!

 

[o0oCharlieo0o]

Morning sickness hasnt hit me yet, that makes me worry i wish i had it at the moment but no doubt when i get it I'll be wishing it would go away lol

 

[Flibberty87]

Just got back from the hospital, specialist was absolutely lovely. Upped my progesterone and booked me a scan for the 22nd. I reckon the next 2 weeks are going to go even slower than the last 6 days since I found out hah I'm super excited but terrified at the same time. I'm just glad there are so many people going through the same slow few weeks!

Ooh chicken and rice soup sounds lovely! Never heard of it before i think i will have to search a recipe myself

Brandi

I'm quite happy for the nausea to take it's time, it started at 6 weeks last time and it was awful! I'm still testing everyday since I have like a million tests I even turned down a dating scan yesterday feeling really relaxed!

 

[Mrs.stefka]

So, I completely couldn't help myself and told my best friend about the pregnancy yesterday! She is almost 12 weeks, and feeling very down about her current weight gain, and is questioning what type of mother she will be...it only seemed right. She said she had been feeling very alone in this pregnancy (her first), and was really excited I told her! After that, I felt like telling everyone, but my husband talked me down from the ledge

I have been feeling pretty normal, but TMI, I have so much gas pain! Me an my kiddos went for a walk and it seemed to make things worse! And the Sahara desert that is my mouth. I can't get enough liquids!

And, this may be a dumb question, but what is a rainbow baby?

 

[Flibberty87]

A rainbow baby is a baby conceived after a loss x

 

[Ameli]

Flibberty, I really hope this is your rainbow!!

[Flibberty87]

[Brittahnee]

Do it! I got mine as soon as I took a positive HPT, I'll probably need to adjust the dates though!

 

[Ameli]

Do it! (I haven't done it yet either.)
