Due in July 2012

[ktskittle]

I only bled for five days when I miscarried, but I was only 4 weeks. I started b6 vitamins and baby aspirin right away, ovulated early, and started prometrium as soon as I got BFP. We are newly weds do we bd just about everyday anyways. (not anymore though... Pelvic rest! )

Hey Everyone! So today I had my first OBGYN appointment! My doctor is a FABULOUS guy! You can tell he became a doctor for all the RIGHT reasons. He listened to me, he was kind, he was interested in me & my husband and I could tell he really cared about me. As far as my cold goes, he said he'd prefer for me to stick to Tylenol & natural things, but I could tell he felt really bad about my vomiting. He prescribed me a different kind of medicine since Zofran really hasn't worked for me. He said if this doesn't work, next time I see him he will prescribe me something else, or if it really doesn't work and I'm not getting any relief, to call him anytime Monday to Friday during office hours and let him know. He did the ultrasound HIMSELF which was fantastic! I've never had that before. I'm measuring great! Baby's heart rate was 157.9, and even though I am due July 13th, he said since I'm a planned c-section already (due to past medical history) the baby will be born the week before (39th week), so now I know i'll be celebrating Independence Day (an American holiday) in the hospital with my baby...but that's okay!! The doctor was so nice! Before he walked out of the room he goes "You both have a very merry Christmas!" My 2nd appointment is for January 19th!

Aww your baby is sooo cute!

I don't even know when I'll get my first scan - I won't see my doc till I"m 13 weeks, and even then I'm not sure when he'll schedule me I just want to know that baby's ok

Ya pelvic rest sucks but so worth it. My Dr told me no till 2nd tri....booo I can't wait!

 

[SLCMommy]

greenpear - LOL i bet your DH is even more sad LOL

 

[EWebb]

I get my first scan next thurs!!

 

[angieloo]

I secretly hope our baby is born a week early and has a fourth birthday- it would be so cool to have a big family party for him or her with fireworks and all. Fun b-day every year if you ask me

 

[greenpear]

greenpear - LOL i bet your DH is even more sad LOL

omg he is, he is! Poor guy

 

[ktskittle]

Mine too! He is probably counting down the days! (I can't wait for pelvic rest to be over either, but I have this feeling that I will be so scared and nervous that it won't be enjoyable the first couple times.)

 

[Bug222]

my poor DH is in the same boat... 10 weeks and counting lol

 

[SLCMommy]

Got the word my baby will be born sometime between July 2 & July 5th

 

[angieloo]

How exciting slcmommy! Maybe it will be a fourth of July baby after all

 

[SLCMommy]

Angie - It might!! I doubt doctors will want to do it on that day though, so my guess is either the day before the 4th or the day after on the 5th Who knows though, right?!

 

[Canada8]

so has anyone had any feelings on what gender they are having?

 

[ktskittle]

I do! I have had a feeling that it is a boy... Actually, last night I had my very first dream about the birth of the baby and it was a boy. (The dream was REALLY creepy though.... The baby was 10 weeks early when it was born, so we "put it back in", but it was born again 2 weeks later at 8 weeks early. What in the world?!? Don't ask me!)

 

[EWebb]

I have a feeling I'm having a girl. But I'll be thrilled either way. My feeling came from a dream I had too. I had this crazy dream about having a baby girl and then 2 weeks later I found out I was pregnant.

 

[SLCMommy]

I have a strong feeling it's a girl.

A lot of people told me they have a feeling it's a girl too.

I could be in shock to find out it's a boy in 8-9 weeks though LOL, but either way my goal is just to have a happy & healthy baby!
