finally got my scan booked for monday, but its 8.30 in the morning!!! it takes 45 minutes to get to the hospital, and i need a full bladder -_- i am so rubbish at holding in wee!

but i can finally see how far along i am, hopefully they'll let me take home a picture of my little bubby

soo excited now xx
 
I hear you kitty, one of my scans is booked for 7:20am on the other side of town! Yikes!
 
7:20???? Oh you poor thing!!! I had one last pregnancy in the next city at 8am. DH drove and i puked the whole way! Bleh!!!! We had to leave at 6:45. This time with a little guy to shuffle I've said no to super early appt!!!!

I have my 12 week appt on Monday morning! I won't get an ultrasound so I'm hoping they'll listen to the heartbeat!!!! I will also be getting my referral to the perinatologist and hopefully going there around 14-16 weeks.

I'm still very sick first thing in the morning but i really think it's turned a corner! I was vomiting in the late afternoon and evening and that now seems to have gone!

It's our 5th wedding anniversary today :) We're taking our little one out with us for lunch and to the zoo :) This Sunday my parents will keep him while we go see a play and have dinner :)

What are you lovelies doing this weekend?
 
This morning when I went to the bathroom I noticed brown discharge when I wiped. The night before I had stomach pain and a nausea hungry feeling. I called my midwife this morning and all she said was that it could be from old blood; my body thinking that's it's supposed to have a period or it could be a miscarriage if it continues and gets brighter.
 
Happy anniversary ttc x

Dcm try not to worry. Brown is old blood and should be nothing to worry about. If it turns red or you start getting cramps call your Dr xx

I am sick as a dog this afternoon. I think the heat and having a cough is just making the nausea so much worse and I just don't want to move. Problem is oh also has a cough and of course because he is a man he is so much more poorly so I haven't been able to rest today. Gabriella has been really bad tempered and difficult today which really hasn't helped. Is it bedtime yet? :(

I'm sorry this is happening! Try not to worry. I had brown spotting with my son during my 10th week and he's 10 months old now. I had pink spotting with this baby at 6&7 weeks. So far everything is still ok.

I remember reading an article about how sometimes women spot when the placenta takes over. It made me feel better at the time.
 
Big hugs dcm, it sounds stressful but it happens to SO MANY Bumpers who go on to have healthy babies. :hugs:

maisie, oh dear, what a crappy day :( I hope you're all feeling better soon. I was going to suggest that you put something on for Gabriella to watch while you lay on the couch but then I remembered her condition - can she still listen to Disney movies etc or does the TV just hold no draw for her at all?
 
Hubby's laughing at me this morning for being up before him, having breakfast and sitting here dressed ready to go to our ultrasound two hours early! I usually have to be dragged out of bed so this is definitely a first. Hey, I'm excited!

Unfortunately the tv just doesn't exist in her world. Sometimes it would be lovely to just put a Disney film on and have some peace and quiet. She loves music and we listen to cds all day but generally she wants you to do the actions to the songs with her. One of the reasons I am so looking forward to her having a sibling is so she has a playmate when he is a little older x
 
Thanks everyone for your encouraging words it makes me feel a little better, I'm try not to stress so much. Thanks again :)
 
maisie what about audio childrens books?
im sure they make them
you could give that a shot

thanks for the heads up shells i didnt know that was against the rules too

Put me down for team yellow as well! DH will find out but I'm determined to keep it a surprise.

I'll be doing the triple blood screening test to get my odds of down syndrome, spina bifida, and other trisomies. I know there are false positives, but I'd really prefer to know and handle my options from there.

Otherwise I always decline all other tests (GD, GBS, STDs).

I really need to do some research on this. My doctors office has really put up a stink about testing (in Ontario).

Captain, any updates??

Yes!

Just got home! Went and did some shopping after the scan and had lunch with OH to celebrate, then when we got home to the marina there was a dock party!

Sooo...ultrasound was awesome! I drank so much water I was so uncomfortable waiting to go in, and then my bladder gets pushed down on for the scan.. oh my!!

The biggest shock of all is that the picture says I'm 9 weeks and four days :shock::shock::shock: I'm now officially in the February club! :happydance:

Wow that's a big adjustment to your dates :thumbup: Congratulations on your scan. Love your pictures xx
 
I think we have decided on a name :happydance:

Caelan James Albert. (Caelan is pronounced Kay-lan)

Caelan is Gaelic and means slender and fair or strong in battle
James is OH's father's name and I have always liked the name anyway.
Albert is OH's much loved Grandad who passed away in April and OH really wanted to put his name in there.

We are going to try saying it out loud for a few days and see if it sounds right but we have really struggled for boys names, it was the same when pregnant with dd. This is the only one we have agreed on.

We wanted to choose a name early as Gabriella doesn't really understand what other children are although she is starting to now that she goes to nursery once a week. Our visual impairment teacher advised to name the baby early then keep bringing him up in conversation to get her used to us talking about him before he arrives :)
