June 2013 first time bump buddies wanted

[No Doubt]

Hopefully it goes well. I have no idea what you should ask. My obgyn is good at guiding the appts.

 

[pinkwaters]

I hope this one is the same!
I'm too tired to think anyway been extremely sleepy and dizzy at work today and hubbs leaves in 2 days so I can't be bothered to write down or think of questions - Hoping he's a good OBGYN - that'd lift the mood a little

I also met a great OBGYN today at the same clinic I work at, different floor, I just didn't want to go to someone I'd see everyday :S

 

[MrsKibler]

I had just a few questions written down, and they had answered them by the end of the appointment that I didn't really need to ask anything!!!

I'm thinking a boy for me. I really want a girl but really want my children to have an older brother so that has to come first. (I could be having twins to from the fertility medicine I was one...I'd be super excited) We shall see!! Scan in 6 days!!...impatiently waiting......tic tock....

Does any one else feel extremely bloated or feel like they are starting to show already?? I've been so bloated I feel like I look at least 3-4 months pregnant!!

 

[Ylanda]

Yes, Mrs Kibler - me!!! My tummy is all swollen and horrible, wearing tight clothes is uncomfortable to painful and my digestive system is all over the place even though I'm trying to eat plenty of fibre! I'm very bloated, which I've never been before pregnancy, and I'm not loving it at all! You're not alone!

 

[No Doubt]

How did the appt go pink?

Sorry you ladies are all bloated. But I understand about the clothes not fitting. I already had to retire a pair of pants and I almost suffocated in a bra the other day. It was freshly washed...I think it shrunk, lol.

I also found out from my u/s result that I'm 2 days further along so I am actually 10+4 today instead of 10+2. 2nd tri, here I come!

Hey No Doubt,

Appointment went great! No scan ofcourse haha
He was nice and funny, kept everything very simple which is better than the ones who freak you out! He gave me an appointment 6th of December - I would be more than 13 weeks. I feel like I'll move it sooner ;p Don't think I can wait that long!!
He asked a few questions, I didn't I just sat there haha - Mind block!

I think I'll stay with him, seems very relaxed.

Hubby leaves tomorrow morning, bohoo, I'll have to be at work soon after he leaves which I'm dreading really. Ah well!

Anyone exercising? I'm still terrified to start

How did your scan go and did they give you the next date?
Finding it hard to wait here

 

[No Doubt]

I plan on starting as soon as I can find a pregnancy yoga DVD. Still haven't gotten that cause everywhere I go doesn't have one.

Glad your appt went well!

[Young1stMom]

welcome Sara !!!!!! Congratulations on your lil spud !

 

[27yrsTTC]

Welcome Sara!

Well everyone, I'm back! I've been following posts all along came home to a foot or so of snow, but it's still good to be home. 10 weeks 5 days today, and... Morning sickness? Very queasy overnight, I've been gaggy and dry heaving all morning off and on. Haven't been sick until now! Glad we had a good trip, I more or less felt good the whole time!

Baking bread and cinnamon buns today, bread *anything* seems to sit well.

I lost another pound while on holidays, all the walking I assume. I do have a pregnancy yoga DVD, my wife found it for me. It's ok. I renewed my swimming pass, loved swimming while we were in Florida!

Speaking of seeing your Gyne doc all the time, I work in the hospital pharmacy here, and I never see mine- in 7 years I've seen her twice at the hospital. Oh except since I saw her for baby! I've seen her at least three times a week since my first appointment. Haha oh well, what are you going to do!

Boobs have been sore again the past few days, pain in my nipples (fairly sharp) comes and goes. A little weird but not unbearable.

Also- I made a batch of pickles weeks ago, and cliche as it is, the super salty dills sure make my tummy feel better at times!!

My bloating has been more or less gone, honestly I think all the walking helped. I did buy a pair of maternity jeans though, I refuse to buy more clothes that will only fit for another month. I was very bloated right from the beginning. I think I'm showing less now than I was 2 weeks ago!

 

[No Doubt]

Welcome and congrats to all the newbies!

27 glad you are back and had fun!

I went to a wonderful sale today and found furniture for the nursery, just waiting to see what's going to happen with the dresser and then it will be on it's way here! Hubbs finished the nursery, so we are on our way!

 

[27yrsTTC]

No doubt!!! I am so jealous. I should upload a picture of baby's room here so you can see what a nightmare it is hahaha. We did buy a few baby outfits at the outlet mall while we were in the States, but I'm still nervous something's going to happen. I feel better with each passing week, but still. I think we're going to do an official announcement middle of this week, I'll be 11 1/2 weeks. That should be ok right??

 

[melastar86]

anyone going to do a private 3D scan to find out the gender early? there is a place near me that does it for less than $80 starting at 14 weeks.... I think I may do it. i am just so curious to find out!!

 

[pinkwaters]

Welcome onboard Sarah! & welcome back 27!! Glad you had a nice trip! Funny enough I think my bloat has reduced a little too, scared me at first then I read that a lot of people experience that around weeks 9 - 10

I feel horribly down today, I'm at work and I keep getting this urge to just break down into tears ... Hubby left this morning and I didn't think it would affect me this much I can't wait to finish my shift so I can ball up into bed and just cry it out!!! I feel so suffocated right now

I'm really curious too! But I think I'll wait till it shows on the normal scan. I don't know, a lot of people keep saying the 3D scans are dangerous, probably not true but I'll wait it out either way
I have a feeling its team blue for me

 

[No Doubt]

27 I think whenever you want to announce you should. I understand what you are saying but you have to keep being positive everything is fine and everything will be fine. I told the hubbs that he could announce when were 13 weeks which originally was our anniversary, but now that's two days earlier so it's two weeks from tomorrow. Besides here's how I think about it. You can't hide it forever, lol. So if you want to announce then I think you should.

I was going to have a 3d scan just cause, not for the gender, just cause I wanted one with all the definition.

Pink I'm sorry hun. My hubby left this morning too. I know yours will be gone for a while, so I'm sure that doesn't help much, but I think your extra sensitive to it cause of you being preggo. That's how I feel about me. Normally I would never think twice and now I want him back.

Are any of you thinking of cloth diapers?
