July Firecrackers 2018

Oh gosh...how incredibly tragic, unique. I feel for you and their family...what a mess :(
 
Wow unique that's really sad, does he struggle with mental disorders or disabilities? I'm sure the family feels terrible :(

I'm so excited to hear what your gender is!! I didn't even know they offered such a service, it looks like the Black Friday deal is still going too if anyone else is interested! I don't think we are finding out gender so I'm not going to tempt myself :haha:

Nausea is coming and going, I just want to sleep through it all!! I'm soooo exhausted I don't know how some of you are working out of the home through this, I can't hardly wake up to take care of the kiddos I nanny, I'm so exhausted!! My appointment is Thursday...I'm feeling anxious and excited, I'll get another u/s and schedule our 10 week Harmony testing and 12 week scan. My Doppler didn't show up yesterday so it should be here today, I can't wait to use it in a few weeks!

I took a 7 week belly picture, I'm super bloated...and I definitely feel like I'm going to show a lot faster this time!

Ameeann - So sorry to hear that news. Hugs!

I had my ultrasound this morning. I measured right about where I figured I would at approximately 7ish weeks. I'm slightly bummed that I'm not further along simply because I'd love to be closer to the second trimester, but I was relieved to see a strong heartbeat and just one baby in there.

Please put me down for a due date of July 14.

Seeing the baby really makes all of this that much more real!
 
My u/s went amazing today!! Baby measures exactly 9 weeks and 2 days. There is only one baby this time :haha: hb was 170 bpm.

The family haven’t apologised to us, they’ve actually avoided us. The son beat my poor Dylan up so badly I honestly couldn’t care about the son and his feelings. I’ve been told he’s not right in the head.

I haven’t really read the posts properly so I’m not sure what’s been going on with everyone.

I was extremely poorly yesterday, vomiting for 19 hours non stop. I think I had a bug but still having the morning sickness :(
 
So sorry to hear you've been having such a difficult time, Unique :hugs:

Congrats eppgirl and Miss on your viable beans :)

I had my appointment today and they did have an opening for an ultrasound. Buffy you can knock off one of the "twins" on the original post lol. There is only one in there. Measuring 6 weeks exactly and we were able to see/hear the heartbeat (although they didn't tell me what the hbr was) but at least everything seems to be going well. I have to take progesterone shots from 16 weeks to 34 weeks - not looking forward to that since I HATE needles - but if it helps keep baby in longer than I'm willing to try it. They are doing it only as a precaution since my last baby was born premature.
 
Unique - totally understandable for you to feel so upset. It was your pet he hurt. I wouldn't be able to look past that, no matter the circumstances. I can't even imagine. So tough. I cannot believe they haven't apologized. No it wouldn't be easy but I can't believe they haven't said something to you...awful.
 
Totally understand your pain Unique x I was a veterinary nurse for 9 years.......Your story makes me livid. :hugs:

Hope you feel better xxx
 
Happy to hear we had a bunch of good scans today!! And a few more coming this week, right?

Buffy, you are my inspiration, so I took my son to preschool and headed straight to the gym (as I had been doing for months before). I honestly didn't even try to push myself too hard (just rode the bike for 30 min), but it did feel good once I was in there. I will definitely try to keep going a few times a week, as my schedule permits.
 
Epp congrats on your cute little baby <3

Lilmiss so glad you got to see your little one and had a great appointment too!!

You all are making me excited for my appointment Thursday!!!
 
I see my doctor tomorrow and I'm nervous! Really nothing will happen. She'll send me for blood work, submit a referral to an OB/maternity clinic and give me a requisition for a dating ultrasound but I'm still weirdly nervous for it.

I think because I'll have to then book the ultrasound and I am completely terrified for that. That's where it all fell apart this summer and I have a lot of anxiety about going through that again.
 
Lilmiss + Eppgirl + MissEyre - congrats all :flow: Lilmiss I removed a twin but which gender shall put next to your name? I am 0- blood group, so I also have to get the extra needles during pregnancy. Lucky I'm not too phased by needles. Plus they normally do it in your butt so you hardly feel it :haha:

Alli - totally understandable. Did your baby measure 8+4 at a 12w scan, or was it 8+4 at your scan when you found out what had happened?

TexMel - well done! I did a cardio class this morning. Absolutely felt so nauseous but then once I got going I felt a bit better.

Unique - oh gosh. This story just keeps getting worse. I'm so sorry :hugs:

I have just taken the kids to the shops. We had a milkshake & donut and I bought my DD some Christmas crafts to do this afternoon while I die on the couch. We are about to go to the park before DS needs to nap.
 
Buffy we do dating ultrasounds here so my doctor sent me anytime after 7w. I measured (according to lmp) 7w6d. When they did the scan they told me baby measured 8w3d bugged no heartbeat, and had likely passed away hours earlier, given my lmp dates. It was awful :(
 
Four2five- cute little belly! Sorry you’re feeling so nauseous, I’m struggling with it as well. It was so hard to force myself to go to work today. I’m thankful I only work part time!

Miss- so awesome you got to see your little bean! I can’t wait until my scan next week!

Eppgirl- look at that little gummy bear! So exciting!

Unique- I’m so sorry you’re sick on top of everything else. Sending you hugs and positive vibes.

Lilmiss- yay for seeing bub, but bummer you need shots. Hopefully it’ll help keep the little one cooking as long as possible!

Alligator- I’m sorry you’re stressed, I totally understand. After a loss it’s hard to let yourself be excited, and you’re always braced for the worst. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that you’ll see a happy little bean!

One more week until my scan. Hurry up time!
 
Buffy - Intuition is telling me girl so I guess I'll go with that for now. Chances are I'm probably wrong :haha:

Good luck to those with upcoming ultrasounds!
 
Empty sac was confirmed. There is no baby. I've been preparing myself for the possibility since my last scan, so I'm going okay for now. I'm having a D&C in the morning. We will start TTC again in January.

I wish all of you ladies happy and healthy pregnancies :hugs::hugs::hugs:
 
Oh Alli that totally sucks :(

I remember that awful feeling too of the bad news ultrasound. I was also in Thailand at the time, and the language barrier kinda made the Doctors come off really harsh & awful :(

I have had 2 successful pregnancies since then, and still stress my brains out and check the toilet paper every time I go to the bathroom.

We will get through it!!

Oh Tori - Im so sorry. Huge hugs and love sent your way :hugs:
 
You’re right buffy - one day at a time!

Tori I am so sorry. Hugs.
