[ja123]

So sorry, Laura. Oliver sounds like a very special family member. Although I'm sure it was painful for you, I'm glad for him that as he was experiencing his seizure or whatever happened you were able to hold him. Sending hugs your way

 

[Laura617]

Thank you all, your kind words have helped. I feel like I brought our thread down here.

So maybe we can have an update on how everyone is doing?

 

[sallyhansen76]

Well, if you want news from me....
We started negociations for the house on sunday, and this afternoon it was confirmed that they accepted our offer. So now we hvae ONE step left, and thats to complete the approval at the bank. Its pre-approved which means only a 95% guarante of approval. So fingers crossed everyone!! Im soo nervous its unbelievable! hhaha

 

[katrus78]

Oh, no, Laura, you are fine to share anything, sad or happy. One thing I loke about our thread is that it's not completely baby or ttc related, and we can talk about anything

Sal, omg, I am so excited for you!!! Getting your own house is such a big step in anyone's life, and it's so cool! It's also one step closer to baby Cheers!

AFM, I had an anatomy scan this morning, everything is great, they confirmed it was two girls, and no signs for downs or anything. Can't say it was a super enjoable experience (well, maybe for the first 20 minutes), cause for most of it (about 2 hours) I was very very uncomfortable, from lying down on my back for so long. And when they allowed me to turn on my left side, I couldn't see the monitor, and was still not well. Mostly I was getting very lightheaded and a little nauseous. And my doc, again, was in his usual grumpy mood... I kinda feel like he doesn't like me or something, although I try not to bother him too much with questions or anything. Maybe he is like this to everyone, kinda sad cause he does this for living, and he should at least try to be a little more cheerful when he knows most women really look forward to these appointrments...

 

[sallyhansen76]

Aww kat YAy!! So happy everything lokos great!! Cant wait to see those little faces. Have any photos?? Ur the furthest ahead (apart from ja and would be nice to see)
And you are at v day now! yay! congrads.
Im sorry your dr sounds like a grinch. Maybe try telling him...or not. I probably wouldnt be shy to say hes being a douch especially with my preg hormones. haha
But thats me...i have a big mouth sometimes!

 

[Cilnia]

No you haven't Laura! You can say anything here, bad or good Are you doing a lil bit okay now?

Sal: yaaay a tiny congratulations from me! But still not 100% so not the full one..... we'll get to that How great! steps closer and closer.... whoohoo

Kat: great to here everything was fine with the little princess girls! Maybe the doc is just that kind of person? Sad.. he would be lot more happy if he would at least smile wow it took 2 hours hm? well of course, an hour a baby

Afm:
bought a maternity pants.. i had to, my belly has really popped and it hurts wearing normal trousers. I can zip them up, but when i move or bend it hurts my stomach - it shouldn't hurt so no more old pants for me.

 

[sallyhansen76]

Yay for upgrading to mat pants...i think its time for belly pic!!

 

[katrus78]

Thank you girls Sal, I thought v-day is 24 weeks? I am still 4 weeks away from that. I do have the pics, but they kinda look like little monkeys (for real), so I was hesitating to share lol. Sonographer said it's just the angle. I wanted to say "well, than get a different angle where they look normal" but from my observation, they looked like that in all angles She offered a pic of the faces streight up, no profile, but they looked like a skeletal aliens, kinda scary lol, so i said no thanks Can't wait for them to come out so that I can see for myself they look like normal babies

 

[Yumenoinu]

sal - yay!! congrats hunni so excited for you!

Kat - yay for a great scan! sorry your doctor is a jerk :/

Cil - yes, definitely time for a belly pic!!

as for me - well girls, I don't wanna bring the mood back down, but found out it was a Miscarriage again (i had one back in 2009) I knew because it felt the same and I passed it today...it hurts really bad. but at the same time, i'm still positively thinking and DH and I are thinking about going to the fertility clinic next month. just want our baby...

 

[katrus78]

Oh wow Yum, so sorry to hear that... Can't wait to hear what your clinc will have to say.

 

[sallyhansen76]

Oh no yum!!!! Im so so sorry hun!! Fuck why does this happen?! Im so so sorry hunni

 

[BabyBumpAhead]

Hi Ladies! I've been so busy - feel like I've missed so much.

Laura - I am so, so sorry about your kitty. If that happened with one of my dogs I would just be absolutely devastated, I cannot imagine.

Yum - Geez, that's so unfair!! I don't understand. I hope you will go see a fertility specialist and update us! Sometimes it takes a while to get in, so you might call and see how long the wait time is.

Kat - Yay! Only a few weeks until v-day and GREAT news from your anatomy scan, so happy to hear everything looks peachy keen with the babies.

Cil - Maternity pants are soooo much more comfy, yes?? I am so happy to have mine.

Sal - I saw that things seem to be falling into place w the house!! Did you figure out paint colors?

Trying - Did you decide to chart this month? I hope you get your bub soon!!

Hope everyone else is okay - I didn't have time to read back through all of the posts.

AFM: Been working sporadic shifts with lots of nights and other time-occupying stuff. I'm exhausted! Friday I start 8 days of 12 hour shifts w/o a day off. Wah wah wah.

Babies are doing good as far as I can tell - I'm getting much bigger. From 14 wks to now (19 wks) has been such a big change! Can't fit into much non-maternity stuff now (a couple pairs of shorts that were too big pre-preg and some of my longer shirts), but luckily I've been able to wear scrubs the past couple weeks, which is nice. I'm feeling them move a LOT! They've both kicked my hand now, hubs is getting jealous - hope he catches them soon!

My anatomy scan is 2 wks away. Fx for good news! Regular Ob appt tomorrow (no ultrasound - just measuring uterus size and listening to doppler heart beat).

Hope everyone else is doing great, I didn't purposely leave anyone out in my comments, just scrolled back through the past page or two.

 

[Cilnia]

I'm so sorry Yum... Hope the clinic can help in any way..

Bump: bump pic!!

 

[sallyhansen76]

Bump, you better not burn yourself out! you and kat are both running and working like crazy and are cooking 2 BEANS!!! Give urself some time to relax and dont tire yourself out too mcuh

 

[katrus78]

It really has been crazy lately at work. They still haven't hired anyone to replace me in my old building, so I am stuck managing both buildings for a couple of more weeks. Arrghhh!!! But on a good note, my mom is coming from Russia next Tuesday, and she will help me out a lot around the house and with cooking too

How is the rest of the crew doing? Louise, Cil, MrsKA?

 

[katrus78]

Oh, and here are my scan pics from that 20 weeks scan:

The weight were 403g and 374g, which puts them at 46% and 35%.

I also wanted to share an awesome painting I found when I was shopping for some paintings for my new office. I couldn't not buy it, I just had to have it, and it was super cheap too!

[Laura617]

Yum - I love your positive attitude, you ladies are so strong. I am so sorry for the loss though

Kat - lovely pics and I really like that painting. So nice that your mom will be coming to visit so hopefully you get some rest.

Sal - so exciting about the house, when will you know 100%?

BBA - how fun that they have kicked your hand! DH was resting his hand on my belly last night and he felt a tiny little wiggle but only once.

Cil - I am doing ok, still sad and sometimes it hits me and I just start crying but I imagine it will get easier as time goes by and just raw at the moment.
So fun that you bough maternity pants, I always think mat pants are so cute.

Oh I forgot to say that I did end up starting a journal and added it to my sig.

 

[MrsKA]

Sorry ladies I am around ! I have been reading, we are moving this Saturday so am packing and cleaning and I want to cry. I have been packing for weeks but it's still always a mad rush at the end. Will come back and do a proper reply on Monday after my scan yah !

 

[sallyhansen76]

Mrska Moving, how exciting!!
kat Love the scans gorgeous, and that painting is absolutely PERFECT! xxxx
Where is everyone today??
