January Snowdrops 2016: 58 BFPs and counting (12 boys / 8 girls / 4 surprises)!

Lesh-praying for you!

Donna- so glad the cramps stopped

Lucy- I have an nt sonogram on Tuesday. I have the same specialist so I will definitely be asking about the nub lol. But also, I will likely have the verifi test done. If I do that I'll know gender for sure. If that test ends up being too expensive out of pocket, I'll schedule a private sonogram for about 14 or 15 weeks. There's no way I can wait til 20 weeks lol.

Ultrasound on Monday morning. The docs rang the EPU and they said it sounded like a subchorionic bleed. Not feeling to great at the min, Still bleeding and getting some pains. Don't think anything good is going to come out of this. Xx

 

[Lucy3]

That so annoying you have to wait till Monday, Lesh did your dr reassure you at all?

 

[Lucy3]

Blessed in the same with waiting!! I just need to know! Can't wait for your
Nub shot!! So I went to the private ultrasound place that tells you gender from 14 weeks and the tech was very confident the OB yesterday got it wrong!! Baby is measuring just over 14 weeks

 

[blessedmomma]

Wow Lucy! Just goes to show if they don't know what they are looking for with nubs it's easy to get it wrong. That looks like a very girly potty shot to me! And they say after 14 weeks the nub guess is void since by 14 weeks it will look like a girl or boy. I definitely think you're having a girl

Lesh it does sound very much like a subchorionic hemorrhage. Fwiw I think I read only 3-5% actually end up having bad consequences. I'm hoping by my sonogram in Tuesday they are able to tell me mine is gone

 

[LockandKey]

Lesh- I'm so sorry you are having to go through that. I can't imagine. That's so scary

I'm jealous of you ladies finding out so early. I have to wait until mid August! I would pay for a private scan, but our payment for the 13 week scan we just had was $590 I'm sure our 20 week scan will be just as expensive, so I don't want us to have to pay any more than already needed.

On a more positive note, my maternity clothes came in the mail today they are all so adorable! And made of a soft elastic material so everything wilk still fit me perfectly even while not pregnant. Only 10 items away from my dream wardrobe I think I can make it happen!

 

[blessedmomma]

Oh my lockandkey that's outrageous!!! Was that after insurance??

Even the private one here is only $70. Although I know they don't do all the same stuff as the ones the Drs do, at least here anyways

 

[LockandKey]

Yep, it is outrageous, I nearly crapped myself when I saw it, and yes, it is after insurance. This was right after I had just asked DH to purchase me my maternity clothes as well, so I felt just awful!

We had to pay that much due to us having a high deductible. Since DH has a well paying job, they figure we can spare expense and pay more medical bills. Until our deductible is met, we will have co pays and will have to pay for the scans, but once we've met our deductible, co pays and medications will all be covered completely.

Happy 4th of July ladies - I know there's a bit of a time diff but here
It's the 4th

 

[donnarobinson]

Morning girls hope ur Ok lesh.
I managed to book a scan for 23rd July to find out the gender but it'squite far away so not sure if iI'll be able to get tjere. So probably just have to wait til the 1st August till my cclinic has appointments. My 20 week scan is booked for 24th August.
I didn't have gender scans with my bboys I waited til 20 weeks don't no how lol.
I've got a midwife appointment on the 21st July . She won't do much though. Still look forward to them lol. My belly is starting to look more rounder and it looks like I'mxcarrying the same as my boys. Xx

 

[lesh07]

Thankyou all very much for your prayers and well wishes. The bleeding calmed down last night and so far none this morning! Baby's heartbeat is good in the 150 range which is normal for my bubs. Guessing it was the sch bleeding out. Hoping that means when I go on Monday the pocket of blood will show it slightly smaller. It so scary though.

Those are good odds in our favour then blessed. Xx

 

[sportysgirl]

Glad all has calmed down Lesh and heart is beating nicely. So scary for you, lets hope thats the last bleed.

Saw the midwife on Thursday for my booking appointment all was good. No waiting for a letter for my 12 week scan, cannot wait!

 

[happybun]

Sorry ladies have been manic with work, just catching up with all the posts! So nice to see everyone's scan pictures! Mine's on Monday, just can't wait!!

Xxx

 

[lesh07]

Spoke to soon! Still leaking blood. Red aswell. No pain though. It's not looking good at all. Xx

 

[PitaKat]

Lesh, I hope the bleeding is just the sch and all is well with baby

I'm excited to see more scan pics, only a few more days and then several of you will get to see your little beans!

Happy 4th of July to those of us in the US Are you all planning to watch some fireworks? I'm not sure if we'll be watching, I'm working watching kids all day, so I will be TIRED by the end of the day, and my son will be going this afternoon to spend the weekend with his dad. Plus my husband is a veteran and last year (before I knew him) he went to a fireworks show and experienced a PTSD episode. He says he'll go with me to watch, but I don't want to put him through that! So I'm not sure what our evening will consist of.

I'm 12 weeks today! What are we considering 2nd Tri? 13 weeks or 14?

Happy 4th to all US ladies!

Lesh I hope all is well, it's so unfair that you got so many scare through this pregnancy!

I talked to a friend yesterday, and the doc who will be doing my 12 week scan is the same that did hers. He guessed the sex right away, and said "I've been doing this for 40 years, I know" lol. Eeek now I'm even more nervous about next scan!

 

[LockandKey]

Lesh, I hope everything is alright just two more days to get through. It does sound like a sch bleeding out though. Praying that's all that is.

Cute bump Heather. I'm 13 weeks and still don't have a bump at all.

I am still feeling nauseous though still have not been able to gain anything because I feel too sick to eat the majority of the time.

I'm pretty sure all you ladies are going to find out your genders long before I do

We went to a fireworks show last night, DD and DS loved it

 

[Lucy3]

Super cute bump Heather!

LockandKey - I'm still feeling nauseous and vomiting quite a bit too surely it will let up soon?? Were you the same with your DD and DS? I'm much worse than last time 👎

Thinking of you Lesh xx

Dana that's exciting that your OB might be able to pick girl or boy!! Hope he's better at it than mine was! When is it booked for?

Hope your 4th isn't too tiring PitaKat. Will you be staying away from fireworks this year? Can't imagine how stressful it must be for your husband.

 

[LockandKey]

my MS was gone in both previous pregnancies by week 12, and wasn't nearly as bad as this time. This pregnancy has been the roughest by far
