July Firecrackers 2018

[MissEyre]

Just wanted to let you all know that we lost our baby. Went in for my normal appointment today and there was no heartbeat or fetal movement on ultrasound, baby is measuring 10 weeks so it passed sometime this week. I am truly heartbroken and absolutely devastated I’ve opted to let things go naturally at this point and pray my body does what it needs to without any medicine or intervention. I really don’t know what else to say. Wishing you all happy and healthy pregnancies and babies, I will truly miss you all

Oh Four! I'm so, so sorry for your loss. I wish you much healing and peace.

I hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas! We had fun with my family, but I am enjoying the downtime today even more! It's cold and rainy, plus my husband opted to work from home, so we are all still in our PJs, just playing with new toys and watching movies on Netflix.

I had a nice Boxing Day! It’s a holiday here. I’ve felt good the last 2-3 days but today I felt a bit off again. Hope it passes and I feel better again tomorrow! Can’t believe I’m almost 12 weeks!

I’m definitely enjoying having my partner home and no school runs lol

Your tickers are making me fancy some chicken nuggets from McDonald’s

Can't believe I'm nearly 10 weeks and still don't feel pregnant at all. No symptoms no sickness no nothing other than tired but that could just be as my 10 month old doesn't sleep at night lol..

12 week scan is Monday 15th January where I'll be nearly 13 weeks, kind of worried as i have no symptoms and expecting the worst, however I have had a scan at 5w6d and 8w6days and growth and heartbeat been perfect.

I'm also back to work on 6th February after my maternity leave and will only be back until late July lol then off again for about 10 months

Glong you might just be lucky and have no symptoms! If all was well at previous scans I’m sure all is well now. Enjoy the lack of symptoms! I think/hope mine are starting to fade.

I hope so but I have also read ladies on here having an early scan and all is fine then they get to 12 weeks and sadly baby gone, and no symptoms...

I go today to get my blood work done for the NIPT test and will learn the gender in the next 4-5 days

While I had originally wanted to do a new years eve announcement I think we are going to wait until after our next Dr. appt on 1/17 to hear the heartbeat one more time and then announce.

Still can't figure out how to announce. Anyone else been googling cute pregnancy announcements for facebook? We have two German Shepherds so I would love to incorporate them somehow.

I have my scan next Friday, we’re going to announce then. My 2nd cousin has just announced she’s expecting and she’s due 12 days before me, someone else always announces their pregnant around the same time lol

I’d have the dogs lay down and have the scan picture in front of them, it would look adorable.

I don’t know whether to upload it with the kids holding the scan picture or over a baby vest.

I saw a girl on Facebook make an announcement similar to that. She took a picture of her dogs and wrote something like "we have a new addition to the family of the two legged kind coming ...."

There was also a girl I know that has horses and she used her horse in her announcement. She wrote "we have a new rider on the way in ...."

I thought that was adorable when they included their animals!

Just when I think I’m feeling better I feel sick again today! And fat abs ugly and blah. None of my clothes fit

Doesn't that seem to always be the case? lol

I just had a very unexpected announcement on Facebook from one of my best friends from school. Really thought she was done having kids because she already has two and her boyfriend wasn't on board for the longest time about having another one, then suddenly she pops up with a pregnancy announcement on Christmas day. I'm excited for her though... she has been wanting this for the longest time. She is due in June so we're very close. I was thinking about announcing around Christmas or New Years because my sickness makes it hard to hide, yet now I want to wait until maybe 20 weeks so I don't overlap her announcement and hope that nobody decides to post their pregnancy around then

I'm so sorry the MS has returned, Alligator It seems like just when it is all over, it comes back with a vengeance. At least... that's how mine always is. I don't feel completely better until 16-18 weeks usually.

 

[glong88]

Still feeling strangely ok here. I'm sure something isn't right but I can't have my scan until the 15th jan. Now heading to hospital for my first of many diabetes tests. I would to have it anyway at 28 weeks because it's in the family but I now have to have an early one a 28 week one and a couple of late ones because I got it at 37 weeks or at least it was diagnosed then with my 10 month old ..

2 hours between tests oh the joys of waiting

Hi Ladies, just wanted to stop by and check how everyone’s going. Had my 12 week Scan today and saw bun jumping around like crazy. Wouldn’t keep still but wouldn’t cooperate either haha Super happy seeing that everything is going well

I was tortured by a few good days that had me thinking that I might be at the end of the nausea misery, but it returned with a vengeance and this week has been one of my worst. And I hear you on none of my clothes fitting. There's only a few pair of pants that I can wear right now.

 

[Alligator]

Starry so exciting! I have my 12 week (I’ll be 13 weeks; oh well) scan on the 4th! A week away. I’m anxious but finding babe’s heartbeat on Doppler every couple days helps me!

Miss I’m sorry you’re feeling rubbish again. It seems so unfair for it to go away and come back! I felt really good Christmas Eve/Christmas Day so I had a lot of hope! I begged baby to let me feel good over the holidays with all the food and family time and baby listened but made me pay for it lol

Are you ladies sharing your 12 week scans here?

I’ve noticed my jeans are getting a little tighter already lol

 

[lilmisscaviar]

Near the end of last week, I thought I felt flutters but I brushed it off as being far too early. Maybe it is just gas, I told myself. When I used my doppler, I could hear the swooshing of the baby moving around and caught the hb for a good few seconds, long enough to get a reading of 150 bpm. Today I've felt more flutters and it felt like my entire uterus shook a few times. Call me crazy but I swear I'm feeling something!

This is mine Unique. Baby was jumping around far too much for a good side on picture. So baby is kinda turned away in this one...you can see the spine.
