Due In May :)

Yay club orange!
Congrats on the avocado dee! I think its usually right when they say boy, and less accurate when they say girl early. Not sure where I read that though.

 

[Hann12]

Yay to oranges and avocados!
That's interesting sass but makes sense that they could tell boy earlier. Although I have heard of people being told boy and a girl being born because they saw the cord. It's not as common to be told girl and it be wrong apparently!
I put a scan pic on two gender websites where ultrasound techs apparently comment, on one 2/3's of the people who voted said boy, on the other every response was girl! One lady said that if I'm being told boy then people are looking at the cord not the nub and apparently the nub is faintly girlie. I'm not finding out for sure just thought it was interesting to see what they think and funny to have such divided responses!

lol

Feeling painful as I've done too much walking today and not enough sitting, I hurt from the hips down. Tomorrow definitely resting day for me and little "boo"

 

[Sass827]

Oh Hann! Sounds like a great site. Where did you find it?

 

[Hann12]

Oh Hann! Sounds like a great site. Where did you find it?

One is called in gender and ones called gender dreaming, they aren't all techies that post on there as anyone can but apparently techies do post. Although they haven't been much help for me lol!

I didn't know about gender dreaming......ingender said 100% girl guesses, BNB said mainly girl guesses.....genderdreaming just boy answers lol.

That's funny because I just got girl from gender dreaming! I found the whole thing funny though as it was so split in opinions. I really don't care which is why I'm intrigued. Still not finding out anyway!

 

[pinktiara]

my dr is predicting a girl as is everything online ill probably have a boy hahah

 

[robinson380]

So I am totally freaked out. I went in for my regular appt with the doctor and she said that the nt testing was all negative which is good, but that she found a subchorionic hemorrhage. She said they are very common and that is most likely why I bled around 7 weeks. She said most women go on to have normal pregnancies, but I have been reading online and am scared especially after already having a m/c in June. She said they will watch it but I do not have another u/s until 12/18!! I wish she would have said we will see you back in two weeks or something. I know I should not worry about things I have no control over but I cannot turn off my thoughts!! Sorry for the novel just had to vent to ladies who understand

 

[Sass827]

It's ok rob. I totally understand. I've been freaking too. I went and ordered a Doppler yesterday to calm myself down. Maybe you can too?

 

[Hann12]

Robinson try not to read stuff on the Internet and listen to your dr, hopefully with rest and looking after yourself everything will be perfect

 

[Powell130]

I agree with Hann. I freaked myself out beyond belief a few times at the beginning of this pregnancy because of all the stuff I read on the internet. I know it's so hard not to but don't listen to all of that. And if it helps, read the positive stories from ladies who have delt with the same thing! I also agree with Sass.. get a doppler if you can. It has helped me so much. It's so very reassuring to know you can check on your little on whenever you feel the need or want to!

If you doc isn't concerned, I would try not to be. If you feel the need to, mayb talk to your doctor and see if you could get another ultrasound mayb in 3 weeks rather than 4 or something?

Get lots of rest..and STOP READING THE BAD STORIES!

Hello ladies, I hope everyone is well!

Thought I'd share my personal scare - I had to get a physical done for work at this generic walk in place (which I have a bad history with from another company). Anyway, the doctor says "you have trace amounts of blood in your urine, no signs of a UTI, you really need to call your midwife." He was asking me if I was having labor pains, vaginal bleeding, etc, which of course I said NO! And he must've told me at least 4 times to call my midwife ASAP. So naturally, I'm freaking out! I call, it's after hours, I do the on call thing and get my midwife to call me back, to which she says "This doctor doesn't know what he's talking about. I see it a lot in doctors that don't usually deal with pregnant women. Labor??? You're 15 weeks! Of course you're not in labor! And trace amounts of blood in your urine is relatively common in pregnant women - we'll keep an eye on it"

 

[Hann12]

bellarosa, I very much doubt you are in labour! I think dr do tend to be overly cautious or panic because its really not their expertise. The mw will know better on this one so I'd listen to her.

Arghhhh woke at 3.30am and couldn't get back to sleep. Very annoying! Unfortunately have a funeral today too so not a good day for me, and it's a baby's funeral so even worse. Hoping I can get through it without being a mess, I need to be strong for my friend.

 

[Jary]

Aww Hann a baby's funeral :'(

Can't imagine what the babys parents are going through. My gran lost one of her twins at 4 months old to pneumonia after he had had whooping cough. Even tho she had 10 others it was a massive emotional blow.

Afm, I feel hungover today and keep getting sharp achey pains when I get up or sit on the loo lol. Me and the pregnant sister at work made sure we got our proper breaks at work yesterday as a lot of the time we don't get lunch till like 4pm and most of the time don't have an evening break which we are entitled to.

Hope everyone's babies are being good and not making mummy sick

 

[Stevensmummyx]

How is everyone today?
I am totally knackered! went to see the midnight premier of twilight last night and didnt get home till late, im suffering now lol! however the film was totally worth it! Powell did you enjoy it?
Hope everyone is well xx

Hi Rob - I can totally understand being freaked out - I too had this happen - twice in fact, once for each baby. I was a mess...first it happened bang on at 12 weeks, then 9 days later. The first doc had no idea what was going on and said 'everything is fine, go home' - the second time, I went to a more specialized placed (where I intend to give birth) and they were fantastic...they found the SCB (sub chorionic bleed) and helped me get through it. And (knock on wood) since then, all three of us have been (mostly) fine.

There is apparently no cause for why it happens, no way to prevent, and nothing you can do to protect the babe until after 20 weeks (Sorry if that scares you, I too did a lot of reading). However, rest is a very good idea for the first few days, although not proven to help, just to calm mom down.
The one thing I can say after going through the same, is that i was told that as long as babe makes it through the bleed - there is nothing to worry about for the baby themselves. So, you should be able to breath a sigh of relief with that (I hope).

When I did my reading on the internet, too many places talked about bleeding and then miscarrying - well, I must agree with the doc's here = when something goes 'less than perfect' - ignore the internet, trust their experience. I read that this happens in less than 1% of all pregnancies, but my OB told me that she sees this at least once a month, if not more.

The only thing (in my opinion) that I would now be concerned with is your blood pressure. This is stressful for sure, go get it checked and make sure (please) that you fall within the normal ranges. I found out that i now have low blood pressure - causes dizziness and fainting - related to lack of blood possibly.

Otherwise, take it easy, pamper yourself and stay off your feet if you can. Try not to stress.

ugh I didn't make it! I was falling asleep from about 5pm on the couch and was only able to stay awake to eat dinner and watch 2 outta 3 of my shows! I will be dragging hubs to see it this weeks tho! If we can find out where his check is lol we changed debit cards (we use prepaid cuz he's really bad about over-withdrawing) therefor had to change his direct deposit but it wasn't on either of the cards so I'm hoping they cancelled on but haven't started the other and he'll have a paper check at work!

NO SPOILERS!
