Megan, I keep mine right at the sink next to my toothbrush and deodorant so that helps me remember!
 
I see mine every day, but the thought of swallowing them grosses me out a little, so I keep putting it off. I just need to suck it up and do it. Literally.
 
Yes! You can do it! It's not optional. Do it the first time you see them in the morning.
 
Yay!!!! I'm so excited everyone has so many fun scans & appointments coming up!!!!! :)

I hope I didn't make anyone question whether they need extra blood work! Mine is because of my blood disorder. I'm probably getting a transfusion around 20 weeks like last time. They monitor me to make sure I'm not getting too anemic. Normally in the US i think they do blood tests at your first appt, then when they do the diabetes test. So no worries! :)

I hate taking my vitamins too! I'm taking so many and sometimes i can't choke them down!!!!! But i found this wonderful thing called premama vitamin powder. It's a tasteless powder you mix with any drink and take once a day. That's helped me a ton! If anyone is having issues getting their vitamins down i highly recommend it :)

I guess for me i don't have too much trouble remembering...but I'm also on baby aspirin that i can't afford not to take so that helps me remember. I like the toothbrush and deodorant idea too!!!
 
My 1st midwife appt is on Wednesday, so really looking forward to meeting them. A few friends have said that they might even try and hear the heartbeat ! Is this true? My 1st pregnacy so I have no idea.... then next scan when I will be about 13 weeks is on the 12th aug :-)
 
thursday august 14th is my next appointment
i will be 15 weeks exactly and get blood drawn for second trimester screening
and schedule the apointment for my gender scan which will be about three weeks after that at around 18 weeks
they used a doppler on me at my last appointment i was exactly 10 weeks
took her a minute or two but she found the heartbeat
i find it at home everytime no problem with my sonoline b doppler
after we find out the gender is when we will be announcing it on facebook
and next weekend is when we will announcing it to OHs family because i will be 12 weeks then
 
Hello! ! Sorry to say I'll be leaving you as I'm due 30/01/15!!
I'll pop across and keep a check of you all but will move over to January Jellybeans. .still think I'll be pregnant come February! !
Good luck to all of you xoxoxo
 
My next midwife appointment is on August 14. No idea if they'll schedule my 20 week anomaly exam then, but we'll see. I slept for 13 hours last night and I feel like doing the same tonight, haha.
 
After the 24 hours I have just had with my daughter I am seriously questioning my decision to so this all over again! ;)
 
Hahaha, awwww maisie, I hope you sleep better tonight!
 
LOL Maisie. We had one of those days the other day. I said to my husband, "I hope we are having a boy!"

Rofl. Though really I would be happy with either sex, it was just one is those days where it was too much estrogen in one room xD
 
swansong, your ticker is accurate for me right now: I'd like to throw a grapefruit at DH! He and I are not seeing eye to eye. Mainly I do not want physical attention and that's all he wants. Why can't he just understand that I am pregnant and he should be attentive to MY needs before his?! lol. That's not fair but it's how I am feeling. I am completely annoyed with him and he with me.
 
Bahahahaha Melly, I have farted on him like once in my life and he got so infuriated at me... I don't see how it's fair that he can fart on me, then close the covers over my head, but if I let any kind of gas or bodily fluid out, I'm the grossest person in the world. He's just acting like a baby, he is mad that I'm so busy and don't have a lot of time to spend with him- which in his mind translates to "bed" time. And in my mind... nope.

I am going to see my mom on Tuesday for a week, so I'll have plenty of girl time and she will spoil me and then maybe I'll come home feeling refreshed.
 
My husband has been away for the last two weeks and will be away for one more, and I have already warned him that all I do these days is fart, and he's just going to have to deal with it when he comes back. :lol:

Yay for girly spoiling time! I was talking to my mum on Skype last night (whom I still haven't told) and she mentioned babies/pregnancy a few times and I was like ARGH I WANT TO SAY SOMETHING SO BADLY!!!

She's at that age where she still needs to nap but insists that she doesn't so spends the afternoon a grumpy tired mess. Then when bedtime arrives she is so overtired she won't go to sleep without a huge tantrum. All this and I have a horrible cough which is making my afternoon sickness horrendous. From 3pm on I just want to curl up and go to sleep not fight an overtired toddler for 6 hours until she finally falls asleep..... Sorry that turned in to quite a rant lol :)
 
Well im too weak to hold out to poss hear heartbeat at 20 weeks so I looked up home dopplers on gumtree and turns out that someone was selling one in the rd behind me!! So I just went and picked it up :-)

After a wee bit of searching we found a beautiful strong heartbeat of around 160-170! Such an amazing moment.... we both started crying lol


I'M SOOOOO HAPPY

First time I tried found nothing but me beating away lol. I tried again an hour later and there it was just above pubic bone to the right a bit AMAZING!! Took about 5 mins on the second attempt..
 
melly- my mom mentions it every once in a while too! she knew about the scare/loss I had last year and sometimes brings up that she hopes there's no kids for a while.. oops! I know she'll be happy once I tell her and she has time to adjust, she's just worried for us because of last time.
we were talking about my move to oregon yesterday, and I also just bought a new car and phone, and she was like "so many changes! hope there's no more and you can just relax and settle in now!" hmm not so much mom, haha. I'll be telling her sometime in august, when I finally get to visit and see her in person again.

I've been "forgetting" to take my prenatals too. I bought gummies thinking it'd be easier to take but now the taste of them turns my stomach so I avoid them more than I should. I'd rather have a tasteless pill to swallow! I'll probably pick some up and just throw out the gummies, just feel bad wasting things like that.
