[Greens25]

Jes
That's awesome news! So happy for you! yey for an awesome 2012!

 

[Mrs Miggins]

Ducky that's brilliant news about your job! How perfect.
Girls, I went to the loo earlier and felt my tummy and realised my uterus is starting to move up above my pelvic bone! This has made me feel loads better, Migglet must be growing!

 

[duckytwins]

Aww yay! That's great! My belly is starting to get a little harder, so I think it's more uterus/baby than chubs!

 

[jrowenj]

darn... i am too chubby to feel anything hard!

Hey symptom spotters! Today's craziness is...purple nipples!! Honestly! They have gone dark, browny purple and they are massive. Not attractive IN THE LEAST but I am loving it.

Hey girls hope everybody is starting to feel better!
Bri how did the move go?!
Jes I think you had your scan today, hope you get a new picture for us!! That's awesome that you'll get to work from home!!!
Claire just a couple more days until your scan!! And like you, I am also still checking my undies all the time! When will the cm stop?!
I want my stomach to start getting hard so I feel more PG than chubby! Thank goodness for you guys telling me about the belly band at Target, got one this past week and it's been a life saver.
Jamie---have they scheduled a scan for you yet?
I had my scan on Friday---it wasn't internal and it was just a on a crappy lil portable machine so we didn't get a good picture, but she did find the heartbeat with the doppler so that was cool to hear! She wasn't even going to try because she said it was early and it took her awhile to find it and she only found it for a brief min. but we got to hear it. It was in the 150's this time.
Curious what you guys are doing with the downs testing? We opted not to because it won't make a difference in us keeping the baby but sometimes I think it wouldn't hurt to be prepared. Oh well....next scan at 12 weeks (not sure what the point of the 10 week one was, if we were going to do a 12 week one, but I won't complain I guess).
K, sorry enough about me, hope you all had a great Monday and a good weekend!

 

[Mrs Miggins]

My friend is 30 weeks and says the cm is still going strong! Guess we have to get used to it. 3 more days until my scan, getting nervous now. I dreamed the night before last I had another d&c which was scary.
Like you I have opted out of the downs testing as I am a terrible worrier, and also there is no way on gods green earth I would risk the pregnancy with an amniocentesis. However, I do think there is something to be said for being prepared. At my age I should have it but I have decided not to.
Ducky how are you today?

 

[duckytwins]

I'm good, thanks! Much less stressed than I have been. I'm so sorry to hear about your bad dreams. How scary! I guess the silver lining is that they are only dreams, though, right?

I had my scan yesterday and got myself so worked up beforehand. I thought it was the NT appointment we had when we found out there was a problem with Tess. It turns out it wasn't the same appointment, and I got myself all worked up for nothing. I'll have that appointment in two weeks. At the appt, though, we saw boop and everything looks fine so far!!! And we even got to hear the heartbeat!

 

[Mrs Miggins]

That's fantastic news. You have been in my thoughts.

 

[korink26]

Glad to hear everything went great Jes!
Claire I HATE those kind of dreams, but they're only dreams. So have no fear...
Girls, you are rubbing your sickness off on me...I woke up today feeling like the worst hangover EVER. Raging headache and puking my guts out. Now I'm at work just trying to not keel over. Only 6 more hours...just 6 more hours....

 

[jrowenj]

Hey, ladies! Just checking in. I have been feeling pretty lousy, so I haven't spent much time on here. Getting sick of the nausea! I hope it lets up soon

 

[Mrs Miggins]

I feel your pain! Of course it's reassuring, but let's just hope we don't have it all the way through!

 

[korink26]

Hey I just checked the scan dates and Felicity you had your scan on the 12th! I want pictures!!! And Miggins yours is tomorrow!!!!!!!! Can't wait!!!!!!!!!!

 

[felicity0444]

Hi guys! Sorry it's been a while. Been so darn busy! The move went well. Now we are just focusing on unpacking...and figuring out the sprinkler system (it's set to go off twice a day!!). Carpal tunnel is getting better. No more brace for right now, but they say it will come back at times. Doctors appt went Great!!! Baby bean is measuring at 10+2 (or was on the 12th) so a couple days behind but they say no worries there. Heartbeat is 187! Here's a pic!! hehehe

 

[korink26]

That's great Bri! I've been measuring 2-3 days behind as well, and they've always said that's completely fine---especially now that it's early. Glad the carpal tunnel is feeling better too and also glad the move went done! What a relief!!

Adorable! Boop measured a day behind at our last scan, and Dr said no to change the due date. I'm sure your bean will catch up! It's so hard to measure when they are that small.

Happy milestones girls! I can't believe I'll be 11 weeks on Saturday! I'm scared as heck for the next few weeks. We found out there was a problem with Tess around 12 weeks.

AFM, I have been doing a lot of crying today. Today would have been Tess's due date. I should be holding my baby girl right now.. I know I still have Boop to look forward to, but Tess should be here with us...

I'm so sorry you are so down today. I think it's completely understandable. I'm sure i will be a total mess on Nov. 16th. I read your journal and cried. You are so strong...we are all so strong! Hey here's something interesting...I have been feeling flutters down right above my pubic bone!!! I read up on it online and alot say you can't feel the baby moving yet, but alot also say that during your 2nd or more pregnancy you can feel it sooner! (as early as 10 weeks). I'm not sure it's not gas at this point, but it really doesn't feel like it. It only happens when i'm relaxing or laying down. Whatever it is i like it!!!!!
