March 2013 babies - we all have our beautiful babies :)

[baby_maybe]

Got my doppler this morning, it awesome! I must have a real wriggler in there, because although I don't feel much movement yet I could hear peanut kicking or punching at the probe I did manage to pin it down briefly and hear the hb, in fact DH came over from the office whilst I was playing and he managed to find the hb quicker than I could! He said he'd make a great midwife

Congrats on finding the hb.. It's such an amazing sound!! Other then the odd ache and pain when I'm on my feet too long at work I don't feel that preg anymore ( minus my bump) so the Doppler really helps to ease my mind.. It becomes really easy to find the hb.. My lo is usually in one of 2 spots

Yay well done on finding the hb! It gets easier finding it once you've done it a few times, my LO is usually in the same sort of place and I can usually find a HB within about 10 or 20 seconds. Found it this morning quickly before I came to work

Got a midwife appointment tomorrow morning, what is usually done at 16 weeks is it just bloods blood pressure etc?

 

[baby_maybe]

I don't think they take bloods at that one. It's usually blood pressure, check urine and listen in to hb if they can. At least that's what it is here anyway.

Baby_maybe congrats on findin baby

Rose with my last baby at my 16 week appt they did blood pressure, checked urine n listened to baby!

AFM - my sickness has finally started to subside YAY am feeling alot better. Am finding baby alot more on my doppler which is amazing although the little wriggler is gone after about 10 seconds lol. Am feeling movements which is fab as i also have a anterior placenta. Oh and i have my gender scan in 3 days! Cant wait!,

 

[baby_maybe]

Sounds like you're having a great time at the moment Anna. Yay for your sickness going and for your gender scan in a few days

hi girls, is it normal to keep finidng the heartbeat in the exact same spot? i always manage to find it on my right side right on the inside of my hip? i heard it one day really clearly and have not been able to since its just alot of whoosing and a tiny heartbeat

 

[baby_maybe]

Well the couple of times I've tried today its been in roughly the same place, it I did only get my doppler this morning. I think one of the other ladies said that her baby is always in roughly the same place when she listens.

Mine is usually around the same area, sometimes it moves over to
The other side. If you are getting a lot of whooshing it may be that you are not right over the baby.. Depending on where your placenta is you might have to push a little stronger down

Hi lovelies
Hope you are all well!!!
My word I am suffering with uber headaches.. grrrrrr.. so who is finding out sex at 20 week scan/has found out?
We are staying yellow-going to be so difficult to not be tempted hehe esp as it's our 3rd eeeekkkk
xx

 

[baby_maybe]

I know what you mean Kelly. Our anatomy scan is on the 16th October and I want to stay team yellow. DH still wants to find out so I got to talk him into it before we go. It's our 5th and we've had 4 girls so far, so I can understand why he wants to know, I'd just rather have a surprise this time even if it is another girl

 

[Kellycool]

Oh wow! 5 kids that's awesome! Think this is our last we have 2 boys but have a really strong girl feeling this time-I guess you're the best person to ask about signs hehe xx

 

[baby_maybe]

I was speaking about the 'feeling' you might get about gender to a friend the other day and I can honestly say that I've never had a feeling in any of my pregnancies. I think with the last one I kind of thought it would be a girl but I think that's just because we had all girls before! This time round I keep thinking boy, because this pregnancy has definitely been different to the others, but in the back of my mind something keeps screaming 'it will be another girl'

 

[Kellycool]

It's weird hey! My first I was certain it was a boy. My second I had no clue at all and this time I've thought girl from the first time I saw those 2 pink lines. Not that I care either way x

 

[baby_maybe]

Yeah I know! I really wouldn't mind another girl, I think deep down DH would love a little boy, but if it is another girl I know he won't be too bummed about it. He loves our girls and we both know how to handle them

[Mrs. AJ]

Oooh, violet is one of my favorites!

Some other random girl names I like for inspiration: Caroline, Maggie, Veronica, Rebecca, Clara, Claire, Brooke...

 

[AthenaPlusOne]

I love Juliet

I used to really love Aspen, too, until I thought about nicknames when shortening it and realized what hers would be...lol.

 

[skeet9924]

I have a really good feeling that mine is a girl...but that may only be because I know both oh and I want a boy..so I figure it will be a girl..Oh is prepared for girl and thinks it will be...still another month until we find out!!

Lol I never thought of the short for for aspen..lol good point!!

 

[sharnw]

I can feel baby movement
4 little light thumps in my lower tummy, while I was sitting back watching my tv show lol
