Hello, congrats to finding out the sexes! To help answer the cervix question they did check mine at my ultrasound and its good and long Dr says. Dr seemed very happy with everything I'm gaining weight at a good pace and feeling good.
Also, my DH felt baby kick last night too! It was so quiet all day but got very active at night and we could even hear it moving away from the Doppler at our appointment haha!

hey everyone!
thank you all for the congratulations!

today i have an appointment with my midwife in less than two hours!
so we get to go over the results of the scan! really hoping all is well and there is nothing wrong! so kind of nervous

yesterday evening my mom, dad and sister took me and OH out to a celebration dinner and afterwards we did some shopping and they bought us our first clothing items and our first gender specific items! I'm in love with the bear suit onesie it's sooooo soft and cute and will be so warm and perfect for a baby born in the middle of winter she is definitely coming home from the hospital in it and OH fell in love with the camo hat and booties he is big on hunting

also that is no doubt a little girl right? just making sure i have never seen a little girl ultrasound potty shot before haha

SurpriseBub why did you post a period?

 

[MellyH]

She probably posted something and then edited it out!

That bear suit is adorable.

 

[bridgetboo62]

stupid me

Aw congrats on the gender scans girls! Only.one more day and a bit to wait for mine! Come on team pink... lol!

So are there more.boys or girls due on this thread?

 

[SurpriseBub]

Strange! Not sure what happened.

I had said something along the lines of: I love carters! I have a bear getup too!




Clothes are the only things I have allowed myself to get- I love picking stuff out. so excited for 25 weeks when we will start to get a nursery together. Why isn't it February already?!

 

[dcm_mw12]

Only about 2 hours till my 20 week scan and appointment!!!!! Hoping everything looks ok and no signs of placental problems!!!!

Ah getting so nervous! Morning sickness is worse and I always feel like I'm going to throw up when I'm nervous!

Hope everything went well, let us know how everything goes.

 

[SurpriseBub]

Yes- wishing you lots of luck, ttc. Really hope you get lots of good news.

That is definitely a girl potty shot Bridget they call it the hamburger with the 3 lines and for a boy a turtle. There is def no turtle there. My DD's looked just like that.

Am loving all these scan pics! I can't wait for mine!

Got my second shot today. Hurts less than the first, thankfully, but my bum still aches.

 

[MellyH]

Ouch! Glad it wasn't too bad swan. *sympathetic smile*

 

[MellyH]

For the last few days, I keep getting random pains scattered over my belly. Some underneath, some over the top, some at the sides. It's just a little pinching pain that comes and goes pretty quickly, but it is pretty constant, happens every 30-60 seconds somewhere on my belly. I guess it's just everything stretching more? It's like a 1 on a scale of 1-10 in terms of pain, but it's just niggly and not going away.

 

[Mattsgirl]

Yay for all the scans. Finally got my ultrasound date. September 24th! Now I can start counting down the days!

Anybody else have their heart start to race for no reason and it get to the point that you have trouble breathing? I have for the past couple of weeks and my doc did an EKG today and I was a little concerned.

 

[Mattsgirl]

Melly I'm sure it's just stretching. You have a lot more growing the the rest of us (with the exception of the two others with twins) so we probably won't be having as much of that annoying pain.

 

[Feronia]

Mattsgirl, I had that happen a few times when I was pregnant with DD in the second trimester. It freaked me out, but my midwives had no idea what it was. They mentioned anxiety, but I know it wasn't that. I had it happen a few times postpartum (once was scary and I had chest pain that radiated up to my shoulder), had an EKG, but all was fine. I still don't know what caused it, but it definitely seemed pregnancy related.

Glad the shot wasn't too bad this time, swan!

 

[SurpriseBub]

I definitely get aches around my belly on (especially around the bottom) and off all day, melly- sounds similar to you though it happens a little less often. As Mattsgirl says, you have twice the growing to do, which would probably account for that.

I haven't had any heart issues- but did read that low blood pressure happens a lot in second trimester. Hopefully you get the all clear from the EKG, and it is just a weird pregnancy thing.

Well done for being brave with the shots, swan!

 

[bridgetboo62]

yeah surprisebub! carters is the brand of my bear onesie suit! they are awesome!
im hoping to get a nursery together asap i already have the crib, dresser, rocker, nightstand picked out and all the bedding and everything. my registry is complete. now are slowly picking things off of it. we already got a diaper pail, i have an ergo baby carrier i got from my sister as a hand me down, we have a few items of clothing now from yesterday, plenty of stuffed animals, i think the next thing we will get is a wipe warmer a bottle warmer and the crib, crib mattress, and bedding set

mattsgirl that is great news! glad they could get you in! is that at west side? i had mine at interstate because its closest to where i live, but have all my midwife appointments at west side idk why just how i decided, i know i want to deliver there.

my midwife appointment today went well! all is normal with the scan and my second tri screening, sooo happy and relieved

silly me always forgets what questions to ask while im in there talking to the midwife and then remembers as soon as i get out
i wanted to ask about weight
im 136.8lbs
so have gained 16.8lbs so far
wanted to ask her if thats good what she thinks
and my sister brought up that i should ask her for the print of of my scan results
so i can see all the break down weight, lengths, ect would be pretty cool
i think i will email her and ask her these things because i keep forgetting about weight
