Scan update!!

My bubs is measuring at 9 weeks exactly
Had to do a transvaginal My dr couldn't see anything on the normal one
But yay me I got to hear the heart beat so exciting! I felt like getting up and doing a little dance!
So tiny and precious!

Finally released to choose an OBGYN and stop those damn cyclogest tablets!!

Have an appointment on the 8th with an OBGYN not for a scan just to see if I like him .... I can be quite picky and since my hubby is leaving on the 11th I want him to meet the OBGYN before he leaves!

How are you all doing today?

 

[No Doubt]

Yay for the scan and good appt! Picture?

 

[pinkwaters]

Thank you
I just attached two, not too clear but I still stare every 5 minutes haha

 

[No Doubt]

So cute. I stare all the time too, lol. That will be er end. Then I just start crying everytime I look at it.

Lovely pics, Pink!

I've had a rough time over the weekend, I'm just not coming to terms with it all as well as I thought I would. I see being pregnant as a chore right now, not a joy, and I'm really upset with myself for feeling that way. Luckily I seem to get the hang of how my body is ticking now, so I manage to keep the sickness at bay most of the time.

Got my 12 week scan appointment on the 10th Dec and I'm really hoping that after that I can start to feel more positive about everything.

 

[No Doubt]

I'm sorry hun. I think you will though. I was watching a tv show and there was a woman who was 7 months and hadn't had not one u/s. She felt like you. She lived a busy life, owned her own n company...that sort of thing and felt like being preggo was a chore. Once she saw her baby, her entire perspective changed. She feel in live with maternity clothes, started taking it easy a bit, when changed her plan to go straight back to work to stay home for a bit. Not everyone takes to pregnancy right away so don't feel bad or beat yourself up. It is a huge change and like any other change it may take some time getting used to.

Awe congrats on the good scan pink!!! How exciting!

Ylanda, its okay to feel that way- pregnancy can just be miserable. Once you see your baby maybe it'll change...or once you hit the 2nd trimester.

I had my first appt today with my RN- Just went over medical history, and had blood and urine tests done. Not too exciting of an appointment but made it a happy day Scan will be next wednesday and I'm dying here waiting now!!

I hope everyone else is feeling good, or dealing with side effects anyway...!! Happy Monday!

Thank you ladies

Ylanda its all very normal hun Its not as fancy as I thought really, I wonder where the pregnancy glow is everytime I have to rush to the toilet to throw up But it really is surreal when you get to a scan and see the baby, just kinda hits you. Really is all worth it! Looking forward to your scan pics !! I don't have a new scan date until I meet with the new OBGYN this thursday - really looking forward to it

MrsKibler - I don't know how to describe the symptoms anymore, they keep changing and playing games with me - morning sickness really ought to be called evening sickness for some of us - my recent change has been sleepy and tired all day then can't sleep and nauseous all night Been keeping three pillows to raise my head up when I sleep, relieves the sickness a little

Hope all you wonderful ladies are doing great!! I'm currently sleepy and grumpy and stuck at work writing diets for people haha

 

[Ylanda]

Yeah, Pink, the pregnancy glow sure is evading me too! I'm quite lucky, really, that I "only" feel sick without actually throwing up but I feel so drained and knackered and grumpy all the time, it's soooo unlike me. Bleurgh! Things better start to improve soon, I'm trying hard to keep faith.

Sending to you all and hope you're feeling perky and cheerful on this boring Tuesday.

 

[No Doubt]

Morning ladies, my symptoms are changing too. They don't know what they want. I was up last night feeling ick. This was actually the first time where ms got me in the nighttime. I want my glow too, lol. There is another girl at my job who is 7 weeks ahead of me and finally got her glow...at least I think so, lol.

I know what you mean about seeing the scan. It definitely changed for me. Kind of made it real to see this little person bouncing around inside me, lol. The most beautiful thing I ever saw. And although women are pregnant everyday, it really made me feel like omg there is living being growing inside me, how dies that happen, lol.

 

[pinkwaters]

Thanks Ylanda sure hope this day picks up!!

Haha I think I'll add that to my prayers - dear god please give me that pretty glow I hear so much about

My sister in law is 4 months ahead of me and she got a hint of a glow going after her first trimester - here's for some hope!!

No Doubt - Very true - I still can't get over it! I feel like one of those obsessive mothers right now. It's so unreal I keep forgetting the image (or atleast telling myself I forgot) and then I stare for 5 minutes at the scan to go awww there he/she isssssss

I don't know whats worse, morning or evening ms I want both gone soon as!!
Really looking forward to 2nd tri - hope it is that wonderful break in the middle I hear about

One hour left and I can head home and juuuuust

 

[Ylanda]

I don't know how much longer I'll be able to put up with feeling this crap! Have really high hopes for 2nd tri - surely it's GOT to get better, right?!

 

[No Doubt]

That's what they ylanda. Here's hoping!

Definitely evening ms is worse. It keeps me up and I just want to sleep.

 

[pinkwaters]

I agree, last night I kept waking up to move the pillows just to find a comfortable position with my head!!

Oh trust me I'm starting to have VERY high hopes for second trimester!

 

[pinkwaters]

I just read this post on first trimester page, a what do you feel you're having post ;p

It'd be funny if we're right about this so I figured we could start guessing!

On my scan both me and DH got that feeling that we're looking at a baby boy! Everyone I showed the scan to said the same thing - I just think it'd be funny if we're actually right about this!

Did any of you get that feeling where you think you know what you're having yet?

 

[No Doubt]

I think girl for me.

 

[Ylanda]

Currently I think I'm carrying some sort of very troublesome little monster! No, seriously, I have no idea if it's a boy or a girl - maybe it's twins?!??! Scan on the 10th Dec will clear that one up I guess. Are you guys wanting to find out what you're having or are you staying team yellow?

 

[No Doubt]

We are split. Hubby will find out, I won't.

 

[pinkwaters]

oh we both want to find out for sure! haha no patience
Ylanda I hope it is twins!!!

 

[pinkwaters]

I'll be seeing my new OBGYN today, any idea what I should be asking him? I feel clueless.
There is no scan involved so I feel like I should use the appointment to ask as many questions as I need
I really hope I like him! Don't wanna be running around looking for a good OBGYN!
