February Lovebugs of 2016!! 16 pink, 15 blue, 7 yellow

Forums New posts
I had my 16 week check with the midwife yesterday and when she listened in for the heartbeat she found baby very very low down, right on the bikini line almost! I'd been expecting baby to be a bit higher by now!
 
Hey girls, hoping to join! Due Feb 4th! Find out in two days what baby is!!
 
Welcome winterbabies!

Baby is still low in my pelvis, pretty much sitting on my bladder lol. When I find his hb with the Doppler it's still pretty close to my pubic bone. Totally different than with my daughter, she was always high up.
 
All is well ladies turns out the ultrasound was wrong and my placenta is just fine and so is baby. Back home now and relaxing :)
They have diagnosed me officially with hyoptension (low blood pressure) so they have given me a few tips on how to try and prevent the fainting spells.
Today is the best i have felt all pregnancy so i am hoping its only going to go up from here!!

Woo, great news! :D Glad all is well. Hope your blood pressure rises soon! X
 
Glad to hear the great news Kristie!!

So I have a question for you girls. After 4 losses, I am terrified to jinx anything so I havent looked into baby anything... no clothes, cribs, etc. A friend of mine from work gave me two onesies yesterday and I thought it was the sweetest thing. When I was holding them, I felt almost scared to be excited. Have any of you gone through this? With us being the furthest we have ever been, you would think that my nerves would settle but they haven't and I'm still so scared of losing him. :(

I feel exactly the same. :hugs: I thought it'd ease after the 12 week scan, but nope.. I'm still scared to get excited. I look at the baby stuff we've brought, and I just can't picture having a newborn again. For some reason, I'm convinced something is going to go wrong, and we won't come home with our baby. :cry: I'm trying to think positively, but it's so hard! I felt a strong movement for the first time yesterday, it eased my mind for a few hours, but then I was back to worrying again. I hate that I feel this way. :nope:

Oh wow that's great for feeling movement! I thought I felt two distinct little kicks the other day but everything else I haven't been sure of what it is. I'm not quite sure when you are suppose to start feeling noticeable kicks. :shrug:
 
They say with your first around 17 weeks, but I'm sure it can be earlier. I didn't feel DD until 18 weeks, but have been feeling faint movement since 15 weeks this time.

Someone told me to just enjoy being pregnant, regardless of the outcome, if, god forbid, something bad was to happen, at least we'd of treasured what precious time we did have rather then worried for the whole time. It's easier said than done though, I understand that. X
 
That makes me feel better to know that it might be a little later for first pregnancies.

Its just so hard to enjoy this without the worry. We had a really hard time getting to this point and this was our final attempt at getting pregnant (IVF) as we cant afford additional treatment. We are so grateful for this LO. I was worrying if I was ever going to be a mother and it looks like this might be the only child we can have so I think that's what is making me even more nervous. Definitely thankful for him though. <3
 
mommy- I've heard it can take up to 24 weeks for FTMs to feel movement. I'll be 19 completed weeks tomorrow with my first and still haven't felt anything. :dust: hope you have a happy healthy baby in just a few months
 
Second time around and I'm still waiting to feel movement. Pregnancy just doesn't feel real to me until I'm getting kicked in the organs! :haha:

I haven't bought much of anything either... Supposed to find out gender next week, so maybe a couple outfits then.
 
Haven't bought anything except a gender neutral boppy...
We don't get to find gender out till October 15th...long wait.. :coffee:
Oh we have started buying diapers up.
 
Haven't bought anything. Probably won't for some time.
16 weeks here with my 4th and haven't felt much movement. I think it's because I hardly get a moment to myself and the movements aren't big enough to get my attention if I'm preoccupied.
 
That's a long wait mrswichman! Why so long??

I bought one outfit but I'm holding off until our anatomy scan. Even tho my dr said boy and I'm pretty convinced it's a boy I just want to be totally sure.

Here is my 15 week potty shot what do you ladies think?

Hi ladies, so sorry I have been MIA. I don't get on here too much. I just started as a transfer student to the university, so needless to say I've been super busy! Gender scan is tomorrow and everything seems to be going well so far. Although I could do without the atrocious gas and needing to urinated literally every five minutes.

I hope everyone is doing well and is having a good go of their pregnancies. Ill try to get here more often.

Def. a boy!!!

They like to wait till 22 weeks...so they know everything is developed and can see it properly...It's alright Ill just go on shopping spree after lol.
 
Jax, that is SOOO a boy. It's hard to mistake a boy even at 15 weeks. I admire your willpower on waiting to buy though. The day I found out my son was a boy, I went to babies r us and bought $300 worth of clothes, Rofl! At least they lasted him a whole year!

I find out the gender of our new baby today! Just 2 1/2 ish hours to go. Super excited. We want a girl for different reasons. My reason is so I can be done with pregnancies, my husband just wants a little girl. Ill be happy with a boy too, I just don't want a third pregnancy, but promised my husband if it is a boy we will try for a third (no matter what it would be our last). Pregnancy is super hard on me because I get early spd, and my fibromyalgia, migraines, and chronic back/spinal pain get out of control. I just want to be done, lol.
