FEBRUARY HEARTS Due in February 2015 , open group all welcome!

I'll happily take 18 hours. My last was (and no I'm not exaggerating) 62 hours. That's 62 actual labor hours, throw in the false labor before and it goes up by another 50 something hours.

18? Yay! Lol.
 
Hi ladies,

Congrats to everyone expecting a little one in Feb 2015! We have had a big week... We were married June 7, and had talked about trying for a baby after Christmas. My period was late, so we took a test expecting a negative and were blown away to have it come out positive (as did the other 5 we rushed out to get after!) looks like this was a wedding night cliche! If it is really true, I just can't believe how lucky we are, as I was told that I may have trouble getting pregnant.

I have always wanted children, and we were both first in shock and now excited... The only problem is that I don't 'feel pregnant'. The pill used to make me very sick, so I thought that if I ever got pregnant, I would just know. I feel some cramping, and I think that I am having hot and cold flashes... But I just can't believe it is real. Did you feel pregnant right away? And when can you first have a scan? I don't think I will believe this is true before I see that baby with my own eyes.

Congrats again, ladies!

:happydance:

:dust:
That's great congratulations! Have you worked out your approximate due date?

I hope you ladies who are spotting find out that everything is okay! Just keep in mind that 30% of people have bleeding or spotting in pregnancy and it’s perfectly normal, so try not to panic yet.

Captain, that’s so lovely! I bet he’s really excited!

I am guessing boy and so is DH, but we both really want a girl. I want to stay team yellow and find out at the birth, but he really wants to find out, so I’ll let him and hope that he doesn’t give it away, lol. I will add that I have a 100% incorrect guess rate when it comes to guessing the sex of my babies, friends’ babies, and clients’ babies. :haha: Seriously, I’ve never once guessed right!

I had a 56 hour active labour with DD so anything less than that would be utter bliss. At least I only pushed for 20 minutes and didn’t tear! I would also be seriously pissed at anyone who told me I would “need” pain relief. I did it pain free with DD and it really wasn’t that bad – we’re capable of so much, it’s amazing! :D
 
They did a scan. They could see a sac and a yolk measuring between 5 and 6 weeks. No baby. No heartbeat. By ovulation I should be about 6+2. They're rescanning me in two weeks.
They said it could go either way
 
18 hours or 30 hours ... it all just sounds like a really long time.. but in my opinion, it goes by MUCH quicker than it sounds. With DD I went to the hospital at 9am and she was born at 7pm... but I never really looked at what time it was when my contractions actually started. I think it was about 12:30/1am. With DS I didn't even realize I was in labor until my contractions were a couple minutes apart, but the football game was on and I was holding off going to the hospital until half time. By the time I got there I was already 8cm dilated. I barley even looked at the clock, I wish I knew exactly how long my labors were. This time around, I'll make sure I look at the clock as soon as I feel my first contraction!
 
Lol im learning now you take everyday as it comes.

i felt awful yesterday and today i laid in bed feeling weak. My sis came round with rice puddings fizzy tango and chocolate moose.

she made me sip the fizzy pop as its refreshing. She made me beans on toast and told me i had to eat it she promised id feel better. So i did and its eased off.

i still feel rubbish but im listening to old songs and thinking off my past and im not thinking about how i feel.

im going to cook fir my oh when he gets home tonight and try my best.

as for labour i guess you get through an hour at a time and the midwife will help me so no point worrying xx

Feb 25 would be my due date according to the internet! :thumbup:
 
Laura, I hope your baby is fine. I will be thinking of you. Is there a chance of an ultrasound in a week? Two weeks is a long time to wait.
 
Congrats!!! My cousins babies will be the same age difference :) she is due in September. You will do great.
We are due date buddies! :happydance: all thought that may change at my ultrasound.

Nice! When is your ultrasound?

Hi and congrats. Sienna is the name weve said wed use for a girl beautiful name xx

I love it, when we were trying to choose a name my DH was just randomly saying names and when he said Sienna, it just clicked.

Feb 25 would be my due date according to the internet! :thumbup:

Due date buddies!

I have a private u/s booked in a week and a half. I'm keeping that
 
by active labour i do mean that its been medically verified as being 4cm or more dilated kind of active, my pre-labour was 60ish hours with ds1,

Labour is always going to be an unknown when its your first as well and you don't know how your body will react to it.
 
I have been going through the same thing Laura so know how you are feeling. I am in 2 week wait limbo for my scan still at the moment after 3 days of bleeding/spotting. My scan only showed a sac and a dot when I was there and I thought I was about 6-7 weeks at the time. I asked the to do repeat HCG bloods 3 days later just to help put me out of torture and give me some hope, although I know the bloods arent a definite that all is ok. They went up but I am still scared to death of my scan on Monday.

I hope the bleeding stops and all will be ok xx
 
It is very hard to keep up with this thread. :wacko:

Captain - What a great reaction for him to have. Made me tear up reading it.

Laura and Emy - I hope everything is okay with your little ones. I'm sorry you're going through this scare.

Katie and babyfeva - I'm so sorry for your losses.

Welcome and Congrats to all the new moms to be!

Had my bloodwork on Monday at 22dpo. Beta was 5400. Thank you, God! :cloud9: With my history of miscarriages over the past year, my doctor wants me to have another level in a couple days and a scan at 7 weeks. :happydance:
 
Any one have a feeling of boy or girl yet?
I keep thinking boy for this baby. Not sure if it's because I would love a boy or if it's my intuition. DH has no feeling one way or the other yet. I would love a boy or girl. Either way we will be thrilled. Lol have a while until we find out but I'm so excited to look forward to these things.
My hubby and I think boy as we have a girl-silly reasoning-but are kind of hoping for a girl since hand me downs for 10-12 years would be a lifesaver! Plus I had an older brother and always wanted a sister so yes would be thrilled for a little sister for my dd-she is pretty much a boy in terms of being adventurous though!
science wise, my hubby reminded me what I told him a while ago which was sex on day of ovulation-boy, sex day before-girl. with dd it was day before, doggy style (sorry) and this time exactly the same thing! So maybe girl...! We couldn't on o day as he was away and with dd on o day I had cystitis (from all the sex) so didn't then either so maybe...!

It's fairly common to not see a hb atthat stage, baby measuring half a cm head to bottom, so the heart would be titiny and not always developed yet. Try not to worry!

I have everything crossed for you!! It sounds like you've had text book pregnancy symptoms until now which are all good signs. Lots of love to you OH and squishy x x x

I had one of them psychic readings done everyone was on about in other post.

apparently im having a girl 71b 2oz.

She said id suffer from alot of tiredness and sickness in 1st trimester bit will enjoy the rest of pregnancy.

An 18 hour labour and will need pain relief. So far shes hit the morniNg sickness correctly. Time will tell lol

How crazy would that be if she's right about all of that! My DD was 7lbs 2oz :) did that reading cost you much?

Well last night was lovely, I gave Oh the card and when he opened it he said what? Who is? You is? Then cried!!

The whole drive home he kept saying he couldnt believe I kept a secret for that long..neither can I!

Aw that is wonderful! So special and something you both will never forget!

Started spotting red blood :-( on my way to EPU. Please be ok squishy. Please.

Hope your little squishy is ok. So scary when things like that happen.

I feel the same way. I would love another girl. I have a twin sister and love it so I would love DD to have a special bond with a little sister. I can't wait to hear what you are having! It will be exciting.

:happydance:

It is completely normal to not feel pregnant in the early weeks. I didn't feel pregnant for a long time with DD. Mostly because I has an easy pregnancy. The only thing I feel now is tired and have some sore bbs. Which doesn't mean anything. Only 5 weeks here so that could be why. Don't worry you will feel pregnant. :) try to enjoy it. That's amazing you got pregnant on your wedding night! So lucky and special! I'm jealous! Haha I wanted that when we tried for DD. Thrilled for you!
