July/August (Summer Sunbeams) 2012!

Today I took a spill on some gravel I have two very large 80 and 90 lb dogs. I had brought them to work with me and took him out back to go potty. Behind my work there is a trail for people to walk and run on. Well someone had let there dog of the leash as i walked to the back. Before i knew it my dogs were flipping out and i could get them to stop. They pulled me so hard i fell on my knees and then on my side and the drug me until i could get my hand free. It was the scariest moment of my life. I was nearly in tears so worried about the baby. Luckily I am ok besides my massive bruises on my knees. Thankful I have an OB appt tomorrow so i can make sure that baby is doing fine. The lady who owned the other dog felt so terrible and apologized dozens of times. Happy it wasn't worse.

Hey ladies, thinking of buying a doppler on ebay. It's an angelsound and shipping isn't too bad. Was wondering if this is a good one?

Kat82, a doctor I work with wrote me a prescription for the melts, they work wonderfully! My ObGyn actually refilled it for me, and I know a lot of women who have taken it (I work in the ER, so most of those women are nurses too!) It is very commonly prescribed during pregnancy

I'm so happy to see everyone's scans, its nice to hear all of the good news! I'm jealous of those of you who are feeling the baby move, I can't wait for that. I thought I maybe felt a little something while I was trying to fall asleep yesterday but it was probably just gas My belly is getting huge lol I've traded in my usual work clothes for maternity, anyone who didn't know I was pregnant before sure does now! Its strange getting used to everyone I know stealing glances of my belly, but I'm trying to embrace it

DHime congratulations on your scan.

Apple - I'm sorry you're going through this anxious time What was your nuchal measurement? Did you have your scan recently, I thought you did? Was it past the 13+6 mark? I've heard of a lot of people having their bloodwork screw up there results. I hope you are not worrying too much. Easy for me to say x

measurement on the scan was normal and according to it i was 14+1 when they took bloods. i asked the doctor if this could have made a difference but she said no. im not worry too much thanks, got my doppler hearing the baby move around though i cant feel it yet.

Thats my birthday!!
I dont have an appointment for 20 week scan yet - should get it in the post this week. Can't wait to find out if it's a pink or blue bump.

 

[KozmikKitten]

Havent got it scheduled yet, but will probably schedule it on Feb 22 when I'm in for my 16 wk appt. Should be mid-March (and my bday is March 15!).

 

[TTCinBC]

My next appointment is mar 9th and she is going to schedule my next scan then. Probably the last week of march. Cant wait until then!

So my doctor confirmed spd for me. Not fun. But am going to get a belt and see if i can work a few months longer. I work in a care home, so its high demand physically. Dont think I will be able to stay on as long as I'd like. But safety comes first.
