How do I find a bumb buddy???

[daddiesgift]

Had our first doctors appointment today (well 2nd but first with our regular OB) she was excited to see us and my son, whom she "helped" deliver ( midwife delivered him, doctor came in and stitched me up and ran all the tests on him) and she immediately held him and said how they were old friends he was laughing at her and slapping his hands all around. It was sooo cute!! I will be sad that I can not deliver the new baby there found out today we will be moving out of country by August.

Here are the pictures from today, Im a lot more bloated than I was last week..we will call it bloat at least baby got much bigger in just 8 days. It is now 1,26 cm big.

mizz podd: hope everything goes/went well. FX for you as well.

daddiesgift: your OB sounds very nice.

HELLLLLOOOOOO LADIES!!!!!

Obviously you probably can tell that my appt went great!!! I am 6 weeks 2 days along, and I saw and heard the tiny heartbeat!!!! I will try to post a pic too!

They said I can resume normal activities which means LOL
But so far everything looks good, they ruled out ectopic pregnancy.

I have to do the 24-urine jug because of the pre eclampsia with DD, so that is not fun but at least they are monitoring me right away (unlike the last place) they said they may monitor me more since i had the GD, pre eclampsia nd thrombocytopenia (low blood platelets) with DD.

But besides that, I am cruising along and praying for a less complicated pregnancy! Back to my daily walks

I pray you lovely ladies get great results on your scans too!

daddiesgift- Woohooooo!!!!! So happy for you, you and baby looks Great!

This is 6 weeks 2 days old!

That's great news MizzPodd!!

aww! I love hearing the heartbeat!
So glad to hear everything went well MizzPodd.

 

[MizzPodd]

Thank you ladies! I am feeling pretty confident now and hope everything continues to go good!

How's everyone doing emotionally? Are the hormones acting up?

I get emotional when I'm by myself. Especially when I wake up in the middle of the night and OH is completely asleep. I tell myself there's no need to cry over him sleeping when it's only 5am and he gets home from work at 3:30am, but I can't help it.

And oh boy' has my body been tired! I spend hours doing laundry and homework the other night, and I wanted to cry from exhaustion when I finally lay in bed!

 

[MizzPodd]

I haven't been as emotional but the MS is the main thing bothering me... It is alllll day and night long, but I never throw up... I just have the feeling to constantly. I do get a little emotional if I want to eat something but can't. lol my stomach won't let me enjoy hardly anything

 

[Thaynes]

Hello ladies. I'm Traci and my tickers give my baby and bump info (I have no clue why one says 210 days to go while the other says 210. I'm guessing leap day).

I have just wanted to cry the last few days and my MS hasn't been going well. I've felt like vomiting most of the day and the heat hasn't helped. I have work tomorrow evening, hoping I don't feel to bad. I like being able to complain on here since I don't like to irl.

 

[rainbow_mom]

Of course you can!!!

can i join too? i'm just new here and sometimes i don't know hot to post things. i'm a bit lazy to read the guidelines, dunno if it's the hormones working or what.

need help too ladies. i feel bloated always and i salivate early in the morning. seems like there's nothing working like crackers, candies, etc.

 

[MissCurly]

Hiya ALL!

How are you doing?
sorry for those going through horrible ms- i've been feeling rubbish, and not getting any better either.

And back at work tomorrow and it being a relentless job i'm dreading it.

And i dont know how im going to cope with the ms at work, as i need to eat constantly, otherwise i am sick. 90% of the time i dont enjoy the food, and sometimes i have to make myself eat as i know thats the only way i'll feel any better.

But i suppose i'll find out tomorrow.

And congrats on the scans! thats amazing

Hey Ladies!

So jealous of nice scan pics, and have massive sympathy for the MS sufferers.

We've had crappy week, D and V combined with flu symptoms was having right sided pain and to rule out ectopic had scan measuring 6 weeks but no heartbeat so getting rescanned on Thursday. They said it wasn't bad news but they wanted to be sure. Hoping I'll get good news and a nice picture too!

Totally convinced I've got another blue bump.

I'm due to go back to work in 10 days but feeling completely exhausted and my house is a complete mess. Thankfully DS is back to sleeping all night. I had forgotten how hard 1st tri is.

Only 33 weeks to go...

 

[Thaynes]

2nd trimester isn't out of sight for anyone here. I like to just look forward to the happy days of pregnancy and even happier days of baby.

 

[MizzPodd]

Miss Curly- I am pretty good.... My MS is on and off all day, and I sometimes force myself to eat anything so my stomach will settle, but it is hard. YUCK! This will all pay off though, and will be worth it!


brunette- Awwww I hope you start feeling better. Hopefully once we hit the 2nd trimester, we may get some energy back! *fingers crossed*
I hope you get a beautiful scan pic, and pray you see the tiny heartbeat!! Let us know!


Thaynes- Same here... In the 2nd trimester, we can all stop holding our breaths! I know the 1st trimester is filled with worries, even for ladies who have already had a baby (like me). I think it is in our nature to worry about our little beanies.

 

[MizzPodd]

Well, I had spotting with Jayla between I think 6 and 7 or 8 weeks. But this time it is a little dark brown bleeding that started late last night and it's freakin me out! I know it can be normal, but I never had actual light bleeding stuff before... Hoping everything is going okay... Should I call doctor? They told me as long as it is not bright red and the usual serious signs, then not to worry... but I am still worrying

 

[MissCurly]

Mizzpod did you end up calling the doctor?

I havnt had any bleeding, but what i've read- pretty much what you've said about the bright red bleeding which is the one to worry about. Yours doesnt sound like it.
It doesnt sound like something you need to worry about, but i think its always worth putting your mind to rest by speaking to doc/midwife.

Let us know how you get on. x

 

[kelkel]

I love everyones scan pictures. Mine are all blurry and just dont look good at all hopefully my next scan in 2 weeks will come out better.
Does anyone seem to just get a negative feeling when you go to ur appts? Whenever i walk into my obgyn office i just feel negativity. Im looking into switching to a different obgyn but cant seem to find anyone that seems to run on time besides this place.
My ob with my last pregnancy was awsome but she always ran at least an hour late and that was when i would get the first morning appt.

 

[MizzPodd]

Misscurly- No, I just waited it out, and it stopped by the end of the day so I am fine now. I guess I tend to over react about everything lol

kelkel- My OB place is very friendly and so far the ppl I have encountered have been nice. I do hate waiting forever though, so I try to book the very first appts too. I loved my last OB place but since we moved, I am at the military one. They are friendly though, and so far I enjoy going there; oh and they don't take any chances because they are already running tests to make sure I am good since my last pregnancy turned high risk.
I hope you get better service because that is the worst thing someone can do; make a pregnant woman wait

 

[MizzPodd]

Oh you know what is so annoying... I can finally again but it has been a few weeks that it hurt and I couldn't follow through! I felt like i was a virgin again!! LMAO I guess i have to ease back into it little by little... SO frustrating tho!! Sorry ladies for the TMI!!

Oh and then, last night I woke up with a big 'O' again!! (after I couldn't continue because it hurt!) Poor hubby!!!!! I felt so guilty

 

[brunette]

@MizzPod - hope ur OH isn't too pissed, still no for us

Had 2nd scan today measuring 6+6 and saw little heart beat but area of bleeding between yolk sac and uterine wall so still classed as threatened miscarriage so getting checked again in 10 days.

Trying to stay positive, my little bean is a fighter
