So sorry Laura. What a sad post to read. Gutted for you both. You'll be in my thoughts and I'll await the day when you're both ready that you announce a pregnancy xxx

I had a great appointment with my new OB! She was so excited to hear that it was twins she ran to get the ultrasound machine to see them. She did a super quick 5 minute ultrasound, heartbeats were good 178/180 and you can even see their tiny arms/legs beginning to form. No more ultrasounds until the gender scan but she did say twins qualify for more ultrasounds later in the pregnancy!

So sorry for your loss Laura, sending you both lots of love.

Great picture savvy!

Had a call from my ob this morning and first appointment is two days after our holidays next week, and two days before our ultrasound, very excited now! Still no sickness here but so freakin tired all the time!

Savvy awesome ultrasound photos! How fun to get a surprise ultrasound Your OB sounds cool!

UGH I am so disappointed today ladies. I had this wonderful hospital I thought I could deliver at. It turns out, my insurance won't let me PLAN to deliver there. So I have no choice but to go to this other hospital I'm assigned to which is further away. I am so upset but still need to talk to the other moms who've delivered there and see how it went for them (we all work together). The only way I'd get to go to my mega-awesome "baby friendly" hospital is if the weather was bad and I couldn't drive the 30 minute drive to my hospital. Which, since we are due in February and this is New York, there's a high likelihood that could happen- but what upsets me is that I can't plan for that. So what, I plan for both hospitals just in case? So irritating! Stupid insurance!!! I feel like I'll be secretly planning to go into labor, call "my" hospital and tell them the roads are too slippery where we live, and end up going to the baby friendly hospital. I'm gonna go to the baby friendly hospital for a tour and explaining to them my situation because I want them to know I would rather deliver there and will not risk my life over the windy roads in the winter just because my insurance says so. That way I can plan a little better.

Sorry for the rant!

i would be frustrated too Megamegan!
well hopefully you will get to deliver there which is the most important part right?

 

[SurpriseBub]

So, so sorry to hear that Laura. Best of luck for everything in the future x

 

[savvysaver]

Thanks girls, this ultrasound and the OB makes me feel so much better that everything is going to be okay.

megamegan, that stinks that the awesome close hospital isn't covered by your insurance! At least in Feb there is a good chance of bad weather. I hope you are able to work something out to deliver where you want to.

Laura, I'm so sorry for your loss I hope the coming days are gentle on you and your partner

 

[Katy78]

Laura, I was really hoping your squishy would make it. I'm so sad for you. I hope you get your rainbow soon.

 

[Megamegan]

Discussed with my mom and DH... the insurance will pay for it, but only if it's an emergency... which means if it's an emergency, I most likely will not have my own OB delivering my baby. Which... I don't know how I feel about. I *think* I'm ok with it? Like if I have a doula it wouldn't be so bad because I'll have all my paperwork and someone else who's been with me the whole time... but, I guess it's something I'll be discussing with my doctor. It's a real possibility that I'll have no choice but to go to the awesome hospital (lol) because of the weather, especially if this winter is anything like last winter. Which was, snow and ice at all times, basically.

I made a pregnancy journal! Woohoo! It's so fun. I'm posting weekly belly pictures and stuff. Come by if you want

Laura I am so, so sorry for your loss

Megan I am praying our winter is not so bad as it was this winter! I have a decent drive to my birthing center (by choice, of course, but still) and I can't imagine making the venture in another brutal storm! LOL

 

[Megamegan]

Swansong, let me tell you, I don't want another one of those winters either!! I would rather it be totally dry in February, but that would surprise me! And honestly, my mom and sister have to come up from Florida, so I don't want them going through a storm to get to me either. It will all work out, I'm sure. Now that I think about it, I really hope it's not bad weather.

 

[bridgetboo62]

the insurance i have (kaiser) your midwife or ob is never the one to deliver your baby
its whoever is working at the maternity ward when you happen to be giving birth
which is weird but it cant be helped

Megan: this winter was the PITS! The January my daughter was born, it was 60 the day after I had her. People came to visit and bragged about the nice sunny day and there I was, in a hospital bed! LOL.
