***February love bugs***

[wifeybby]

I’ve read through but can’t remember much specifics lol but mum2cubs you look beautiful! I’ve got no bump to share yet (7+1) but yours looks great!!

Had a good day finally with minimal nausea - but all other symptoms are full force. Hubby thinks my irritability is cute and funny but it makes me more mad lol

Hope everyone has a nice holiday tomorrow! Stay cool and have fun!

I think I need to take a break from this World Cup!! I dont think any pregnant woman should be getting anywhere near as excited as I got tonight!!!! Come on England!!

Same here!! I don't think I've ever been happier after a football match!! Haha!

Bittersweet (slightly) though, because my sister-in-law is Colombian.

Oh I would be milking that if I had a Columbian sister-on-law!!

Welcome to the new ladies :wave:

I read through the last few pages. Glad everyone is doing well. I'm 8+4 today and I mostly get nauseous at night. I'm tired, a lot but I also have 4 kids so I'm pretty busy. My sense of smell is extremely heightened. We have 3 cats and when I walk into a room with a litter box I wanna vomit. We've never had smelly litter boxes before and apparently my husband and 2 oldest children cant smell it like I do. I cant take this for 7 more months so I ordered an automatic litter box that self cleans. Hope that helps. I have an appointment on July 27th for genetic testing and ultrasound. I'm excited to see a heartbeat again. I miscarried a baby at 12 weeks in the past so I wont be able to breathe again until 14+ weeks. Oh and I see you guys use the abbreviation "afm". What does that stand for??

As for me

 

[Wriggley]

Hi ladies hope your all well I’ve got my first midwife appointment this morning woo!

 

[Mum2cubs]

Thank you wifey! I appreciate it. I can't wait to see everyone else's bumps grow too. How's everyone feeling?

Afm I'm just extremely tired and feeling bloated I'm nausea hasn't kicked in yet. Usually comes late around 10 weeks. I hope this is the rare pregnancy where it never shows. But that's wishful thinking because I usually get the full blown nausea and vomitting �� hope everyone's doing well. My first appt is July 24th and ultrasound with be scheduled after. It's still forever away.

Hey Ladies!

Just popping in to say hi. I've been reading along best I can. A lot is going on in my life and it has been a bit difficult to concentrate on the forums. Usually I can't keep my mind off of pregnancy related topics, but so much is going on it's not the main thing on my mind right now.

Pregnancy wise things are all fine to my knowledge. No symptoms at all really. Which is okay.

 

[Leinzlove]

I'm joining you all here. I got my BFP on June 21. I was on vacation at Disney World and Trying but... It happened so weird.

The last several months I ovulated on CD18, so I didn't start OPK until CD 15 and it was negative. On CD25 I got a positive OPK, I thought ovulation was delayed and then 4 days later still positive OPK. So, the next morning I took a FRER and a pregnant showed right away.

Based on LMP, I'm due February 28, but will not go to the OB for several weeks yet.

This is baby #5!

 

[AliJo]

Leinz - Welcome!! Congrats! I see you have 4 girls!! I looove all their names.

 

[Leinzlove]

Leinz - Welcome!! Congrats! I see you have 4 girls!! I looove all their names.

Awwww thanks! Congratulations to you as well.

I had babies the same years you had your boys. #3 was born November 18, 2014 and #4: May 3, 2017.

Great to see you here!

 

[AliJo]

Leinz - That's awesome! They're both at some interesting ages! Are your older two helpful with the younger two? I think it's always heart warming when older siblings try to help, even if sometimes they are too helpful!

Did you always want 5? I could see us ending up with 5 littles if we get to number 4 without a girl! We definitely want 4, though.

 

[Leinzlove]

Thats for sure! My oldest is 7 and she is very helpful. My 5 year old not so much. My 3 year old is helpful occasionally. But all of them are very protective and love their baby sister.

No, I never planned on having 5 children. It just happened that after the first two that we planned, we wanted more... So we decided to do it all over again twice. And then #5 was like Well, whats one more.

My husband actually would prefer this one to be a girl. I on the other hand am preferring a boy.

When I was at #4, I was just like its a girl for sure. Thats kind of how I feel now to. Its always a girl.

Will anyone be surprised when you announce #3? They won't be shocked at all here and expect it here.

When is your first appointment?

[AliJo]

Leinz - I think some will be. Others not so much. I keep telling people I want four children. Most close relatives know that I planned to try for another this year.

I still need to schedule. I called the hospital yesterday to see how they ran their OB services. So, I'm going to call Monday and set one up.

Do you have one set up?

 

[Desire2Mom]

Had another US today at 9w3d and babies are doing great! Both HBs are in the 180s and wiggling around! My heart melted when I saw them wiggling. However, my bleed is still growing and it looks like I may have a second SCH, but RE is thinking it could be the same one but the blood is splitting in 2 directions so it just looks that way. So far he's not too concerned, it's about 2cm x 3cm x 1cm. Because of this, they want to see me one more time before I can be released. My symptoms are still pretty mild except my fatigue and constipation is crazy! I seriously slept about 20 hours one day. Trying to finish up my last 4 weeks of my RN-BSN program and this fatigue is just ruining it.

I had a scan at 7 weeks 4 days, baby looked great with a good heartbeat. I'm now 9 weeks 3 days and still struggling to eat because nothing seems appealing. This baby doesn't like anything.

 

[Desire2Mom]

I'm in love! Co-worker gave me her doppler since she's done having babies and tonight I decided to try and play with it. I saw someone on my FB group with the same doppler pick up heartbeats at 9w5d so I thought what the hell, I'll give it a shot. 9w4d and I got both babies on the doppler! Of course the number on the doppler isn't reading right, but I heard mine and I listen to newborn and fetal heartbeats for a living so I can easily tell the difference and make a guestimate about the bmp. I recorded both so I can listen to them anytime.

 

[mrsswaffer]

Hi ladies!

I've been in hospital with hyperemesis gravidarum. In all 3 of my pregnancies now, I've had to be admitted for the same thing. I must be the duchess!

Anyway, got an early scan to rule out twins anyway, and little beanie is very happy and healthy, measuring at 8 weeks today which is bang on what my dates say.

 

[vaniilla]

Wriggley - I hope your booking in appointment went well

Leinz - Congratulations and welcome!

Phantom - Lovely scan photo

Desire2Mom - that's wonderful that you got to hear their heartbeats!
