July Babies!

[peacelikeariv]

Ha! My DH is being pretty great! He accused me of waiting for the other shoe to drop.... which I kind of am.
Today I teared up b/c they told me my numbers are raising well, and he started picking on me until I laughed,he said "it was make you laugh, or make you cry, and that's like shooting fish in a barrel lately"

Sounds just like me! At this stage (due 7/12) it is hard to believe there is a little one in there. So much seems surreal. I am still not sure if the symptoms are in my head...Then when I have a cramp I freeze!

Hey ladies. I'm back from the dr. They confirmed and put my due date as 7/16. I would argue and complain except that is DHs and my seventh wedding anniversary!!! I am so teary and excited and nervous. You would think I was a first timer!! My son is set against having a baby unless the baby comes out "walking and talking" (his words...from my 2 yr old). We are all just over the moon right now. Now roll on 9 weeks for my ultrasound and OB workup!!

 

[biliboi2]

Well I havent been having many cramps today, and I'm wishing they would come back, even though I know its to be expected!

 

[hopeforamirac]

got my doctors app on friday, he will refer me to mw.
im going to ask if they will let me have an early scan this time as we had a mmc last time

 

[biliboi2]

Quiet on here today ladies!

 

[sapphire1]

I'm here, just catching up

I'm still quite symptomless, apart from being thirsty all the time. Paranoid much!

 

[biliboi2]

Well my cramps have def eased off. Still got sore boobies and increased milky CM (sorry TMI!)

Going to try to get a midwife appointment tomorrow if they have a cancellation (only in my GP surgery on a Thurs PM) as by my LMP I am 10 and a half weeks, but by ovulation date I am 6 weeks. So will see what they say about dating scan.

 

[sapphire1]

It will be interesting to see if they take your cycle length into account. They're usually terrors for working everything out on a 28 day cycle. I think the dating scans can be anywhere between 10 and 14 weeks, I had one at 13 weeks with Holly.

 

[biliboi2]

I am hoping to have an earlier scan, but for a genuine reason!

 

[bluberrymufin]

Have an appt tomorrow to get insurance so I can actually make a dr appt. Can't wait to be able to do that!

 

[Nitengale]

I still have no M/S. Just sore boobs and really thirsty. Had my first real appointment yesterday. They did an ultrasound but my little bean was too small to see. Next appointment is in 4 weeks, just a waiting game now.

 

[Viking15]

No symptoms here either. Maybe just constipation I'm trying to drink lots of water and not panic. No OB appt until December 7. Seems like forever.

 

[peacelikeariv]

Had to cancel my Friday appt! Moved to Wednesday the 17th for my confirmation.

I am having achey boobs still. Could be because they are so small! haha LOTS of growing to do!

Still having mild aches in my ovary areas. This doesn't seem to be a common thing on any threads? How about you all?

Oh and should I get a flu shot now or wait until the six week mark? 4w6d today.

 

[ann89]

I never got added to the list I'm due July 10th

 

[sapphire1]

I do get sharpish pains in my ovary area, rather than an ache. Not sure about the flu jab. I don't even know whether to get one or not, I didn't have one last time.

Ann89, did you PM biliboi? That's what you have to do to get added to the list

 

[biliboi2]

Ive added u ann89

 

[Bunnikins]

oh god i hope im not the only one here who is absolutely PARANOID! I dunno why. Ive SEEN the sac (no heartbeat yet cos its too small) on ultrasound, i KNOW its in there! But i just cannot picture an actual baby at the end of all this. I keep thinking the worst is gonna happen. does anyone else feel this? Is it just cos its my 1st?

 

[sapphire1]

I feel like that too Bunnikins, so I don't think it's a first baby thing. If anything I'm even more paranoid this time round I suppose it's natural to be worried.

 

[scoobydrlp]

I'm right there with you bunnikins. I'm pretty much losing my mind with worry.

 

[Keebs]

Yup, you can add me to the irrational worrier list too but I am finding that it is lessening slightly, so hopefully there will come a point where we can chill out and enjoy our pregnancies
