I just found out today that I'm pregnant with my Rainbow baby. I'll be having it sometime in May!!!! Yay for us!!!!

 

[prolifer]

Feeling so horrible lol I am almost 8 weeks and haven't puked yet but now I've said it I probably will >.< lol

What's a rainbow baby?

 

[LovelyCupcake]

A rainbow baby is the first baby you have after a miscarriage. I started feeling nauseated last night, but dismissed it as me being weird as always. Lo and behold.... there's a person inside me.

Welcome lovelycupcake!!!

Prolifer - I haven't gotten sick yet either, just a tiny bit of nausea but not too bad. Knock on wood that I don't get sick!!

Powell - I love the bump!! I have a bump, but it is my "20lbs overweight" bump, so you can't really tell much of a difference lol.

I know, I felt so bad for her because it wasn't her fault! Our other female is a grouchy @$$ when she's in her spot on the couch and will bite the other dogs when they come near her. All of the others will walk away, but this one being a Boxer and all, doesn't walk away from a fight lol

Thank you, I was so excited when it was still there this morning!

They should be able to. According to your ticker I was only like 2 days off from you for my first scan. They could see the sac and the baby, but there was no heartbeat yet. 1 week later the baby had almost doubled in size and there was a beautiful heartbeat

Thanks to everyone on here for all the support you're giving to me and everyone else expecting in May.

My husband and I heard our baby's heartbeat for the first time today, it's up at 165. We estimated our due date correctly from the start as May 11, according to the u/s. All the blood work and stuff also came out perfectly normal.

I'm suffering through m/s, but am just grateful everything is going so well for our baby. I wish the best for all of your babies too.

 

[Starry Night]

Welcome, lovelycupcake and congratulations on your rainbow baby!

Aw, what a sweet title for a baby but how sad of the origins

I dry heaved a lot today, predicting an interesting morning tomorrow :/ lol

 

[Blondey2012]

Hi everyone. I'm rubbish at logging on here. I think it's because of my nervousness!

However, I've been to the doctors today and he's referred me to the midwife and gave my date at the 30th may :-D I can't believe it's that date because my last pill I took was on the 30th may this year! I do hope it's a sticky bean.

I'm 5 weeks tomorrow. Hoping the midwife will not take too long to get in touch because when I'm 12+1 I'm off on holiday so would love to know everything is ok.

Powell - love the cute bump! Mine is starting to show, I just look like I have a thicker waist. I had a very neat bump last time so hoping its the same this time.

Hi blondey! You might be lucky to get your scan booked for 12 weeks exactly, it depends on how busy the hospital is! I have my first mw appointment this time next week which should be good and hoping they give me my scan date then too.

Starry - hope the scan goes well today!

I was sick this morning, tired and my skin is covered in little teenage pimples. It's grim! Have to take my DD swimming at 12 which I'm not looking forward to because not only does she not enjoy it but I feel sick! My inlaws are coming either later today or tomorrow until Sunday to help. Really happy because I need help around the house!

 

[Stevensmummyx]

Gl today starry!
Hann I've woke up today and my boobs are covered in pimples! Not attractive lol xx

 

[Hann12]

I had that a few days ago and now I have tiny red pimples on my neck and all over my face! It's horrible - thank goodness for make up!!

 

[eggo preggo]

Hi Ladies, just came from my first ultrasound

Heartbeat is def there and the sac is in the right place. The only thing is they think i might be 6 weeks rather than almost 7 weeks. Which to me is bizarre as i have done all the cb digi tests and used ovulation predictor kit so i know when i ovulated!

Next scan in 4 weeks but im feeling a bit worried, why would it show up smaller? apprently all babies grow at the same rae until 12 weeks.

Firstly congratulations!
Did they say what the crl length was? I think it can vary, reason being that in my other group two girls used opks and they know the day they ovulated from that, and it was the same day, but one of them is due 3 days before the other. They found out via early scans the difference in dates.
For reference the crl that my baby measured at 6w 1d was 4.3mm, I googled that and a load of scans for fetus's 6w1d came up.

Hann, thanks for the info, dont know crl length but if i think m 6w5d its possible give or take say 3/4 days then that would be closer to 6w.
Same dr predicted my sisters dd and he was right! so might be a few days behind as long as the heartbeat was good ill try not to stress

 

[Hann12]

That's the best way to be - it can def vary by a few days so don't worry - since strong heartbeat means so much more! Yay!
I had an early scan with my DD at 7+4 and they gave me a DD of 18th May (which I thought was spot on for when I ov), when I had the 12 week scan they said I was due on 16th may which I didn't think was possible, all the way through she measured small and ended up being born in the early hours on the 20th so 4 days late and was tiny. The dates can never be exact, you know when you ov - beyond that the baby will just be born when its ready!

 

[Stevensmummyx]

Luckily my face has started to clear and the pimples are moving down as I don't wear makeup lol x

Everyone - thanks for the congrats - very heartwarming, especially since it's killing me not to tell people.

Eggo - as for as its concerned for your due date - the scans use the size of the embryos to determine the date right now. When i asked, it's because even though you ovualted on day x, the egg can be fertilized for 24-26 hours after (therefore, day x+1 or 2), and then implantation can be anywhere from day 5-12 after that- so, really we need to look at it as ovulation date + or - 6-14 days. Does that make sense?

Its funny you question this - when we did my scan, the babies were at different days - one was at 6w4days, the other 6w5days = needless to say i was confused when I saw that.

And, no - I didn't get a picture this time (very upset about it); this doctor is apparently pretty 'new tech' but forgot to mention that to me. He doesn't print the pictures (not even for my file) - but when I go back on Monday the 1st, I can bring a memory stick and get all the pics and even an audio track of their heartbeats!!!!! how cool is that?
