It went well, thanks puppy! Baby boy is still a boy! :)
Also, he still took like 20 min to turn over for the sonographer! So...he's still lazy! :haha:
But she was able to get a good look around at the organs and said everything looks good. :thumbup:
 
Great news Carli and Kosmik - great to know that all is well and as it should be.

:wohoo:
 
I haven't been on in so long, it took me two days to catch up!! So excited about all of the healthy babies and beautiful scan pics!

We had our scan yesterday, its a boy! I just KNEW it!! Baby was face down the whole time and WOULD NOT turn over, so I STILL have never seen his face, not even a profile shot! He is keeping what he looks like a secret until he gets here! My mom took us shopping and we bought our first things for baby, some clothes (tiny blue jeans :) ) and a car seat. My heart is so happy!

Torz, it def sounds like a UTI you've got going on, probably a pretty bad one. Drinking lots of water is the BEST thing you can do! Hopefully all the pain and discomfort passes soon!
 
Great news for you brit! Welcome to team blue! :blue:
Cant wait to see pics of all these summer babies!
 
Congratulations Pup, Carli, Kozmic and Brit!!
I have my scan at 12 o clock tomorrow. Eeeeeeeeeek, 1 more sleep!!
 
Oh wow great news with the scans guys all bubs being healthy!!:happydance: We had ours yesterday and all was well, OH took the dvd over to his mates house today for the guys to watch he was so excited!:haha: She is still a she! and the pics are for some reason taking ages to load so they are on my journal and the 3d one is my profile pic:flower:
 
Brit - glad to hear that everything went well.

I'm counting the days until Monday until we see our Spud again! I can't wait - and I am really keen to find out gender now. I want to get shopping but don't want to buy anything until I know what gender I'm buying for! Three more sleeps!
 
Had my big U/S today, but the little booger mo had their knees together, so no gender for me yet!
 
Had a bit of a scare today. Have been having braxton hicks from about 18 weeks, which i didnt worry about. Until today, or last night i should say. They started getting painful. Like menstrual cramp contracrion types. It went on all night and i finally had to leave work at 10am and go see my doctor.

My cervix is still closed and baby's heart rate is good, but she's got me resting for the weekend. They have died down since this morning, but are still there off and on. Lots of water and rest for me. I have my regular appointment next thursday, so im hoping all will be okay then.

aw i know how you feel. This just happened to me on wednesday night. I was so scared. This is my first pregnancy and I didn't know what a braxton hicks felt like. These were so painful :( I waited until morning to call my doctor. They just told me to drink 32 oz of water and relax and call them back. Well that didn't work for me so i called back. I was very worried and i was in so much pain. I was hoping they would have me come in. Instead they ended up having me go to the lab just to have a urine test done to see if I had a UTI :growlmad:. I am still so upset they didn't have me come in. I found out today that I dont have a UTI and I still don't have answers. I feel better now but i keep having pain off and on. Baby girl is still moving like crazy so I know she is ok, but still it would have been nice to be reassured. Hope you are feeling better!:hugs:
 
Yea, Im very lucky that the office I go takes all this stuff so seriously. I didn't see my prenatal doctor because she is only in 2 1/2 days a week, but my regular family doctor is there too so she saw me just to double check they weren't doing anything to my cervix. They eased up earlier this evening but have come back in the last hour or two. This is my second pregnancy, and I did get braxton hicks with my first, but they were never painful so that's what freaked me out. I've taken tomorrow off work so I can just rest for the day. Hoping that will do it and I can go back to work sunday. I hate taking time off right now because I'm done work on april 30th due to my spd. So it's not like I have a lot of time left to get through. Will just need to listen to my body when I'm at work and rest more. I work in a group home for people with disabilities so it's physical work. Thats the hard part and the reason im off work early.

They checked me for a UTI as well, but nothing. I wouldn't be happy with my doctors had they not seen me either. Is that what it's usually like in the states?
 
TTC I'm sorry to hear you're going through that! Scary! And JM, it sucks that your doctor wouldn't do more for you, I would be angry too. I have had a lot of really painful cramping, but usually just like once a week, it lasts about 30 minutes and then passes. But its intense, starts in my lower abdomen/pelvis and wraps all the way around my back. I told my doctor about it at my last appointment, he made a concerned face but didn't actually VOICE any concern, so I don't know what to think. :shrug:

On the up side I feel like the ms has FINALLY passed, and my energy level is way up from where it was! So glad to be feeling human again!

Glad you are getting rest. I don't think it is normally like this here in the U.S. because everyone here is asking me why they didn't have me come in. So i assume it is unusual. If it happens again I will just walk straight in there and i won't wait.
