March 2013 babies

So what's all this about feeling better after 12 weeks?? I still feel SO tired and nauseated! Maybe I have to wait a couple more weeks...

Also, is anyone else not showing yet? I barely have any bump at all (and I am slim, so it would show) and somehow this worries me... Although my aunt did say she didn't really show until 5 months! Apparently her coworkers thought she'd just come back from vacation a little pudgy. Haha...

 

[Curliegirlie]

P.S. So lovely to see all the wonderful scans on here! Mine also went well - a super active little one bouncing around! It was surreal, because I couldn't feel a thing, and I'm not even showing yet!

 

[Mrs. AJ]

I still feel like crap, Curlie, so right there with ya! Last time the nausea was pretty much gone after 13 weeks, but the exhaustion didn't get any better until around 16-17 weeks.

I have a total bloat bump already But last time I don't think I had anything in the way of a bump until around 15 weeks or so.

Hi girls, congrats on all the successful scans! Ours was also great!

But mine and dh's heart did drop when we saw which sonographer it was, the same one that had to give us the bad news of our mmc, first time around! But this time was all good.

Unfortunately we don't get heartrate, but that's fine, as everything was ok, so that's all that matters to me!

Will have to upload pic later, as phone won't let me do it.

Hey curliegirlie- I'm not showing either... haha i want a bump dangit not bloat!
I'm not a stick, I've got some meat on ma' bones but it all just depends on people's builds... I'm 5'10" and have a long torso- so baby has a lot of room to grow "up" before its goes "out".

My aunt is a tall woman as well but stick thin, when she went into labor-- no one at the hospital believed her at first, saying there was no way she was pregnant enough to be in actual labor and she was 9 months!! She just really carried her baby "up" in her torso because she is a tall woman as well.

Congratulations on all the good scans nice to hear some good news!

gender guesses welcome! i have no idea anything about nub and skull theories

Hi ladies lovely scans!! my nausea has been ok...( I'm sure meds have something to do with that still) but I'm still so exhausted and now that i am back at work my back is bothering me too . I've kept it quiet at work that I am preg except for the principal...( she knows about my losses and was very supportive then so I figured she should know for appts and stuff) However today one of the secretaries came over to me in a haste and said " your preg!!! How far along??"" lol I said to her " really?? I thought I was doing a good job hiding it..howd you know i didnt just gain weight??" She told me after 8 kids she has a certain psychic ability for telling when people are preg and that its not as obvious as i think

It's so wonderful to hear everyone's awesome scan news!!! We had ours too and things are looking good. We had our dates pushed forward which was excellent too!

Does anyone have a sonoline B doppler? Can't seem to pick up the hb with mine, hoping it's just cause I'm chubby. I see the dr tomorrow thankfully.

Curlie, I'm still extremely tired. I had no ms but the last 2 weeks if I don't eat every 3 hours I start to feel icky. No bump here either, not showing at all and I've lost about 3 pounds.

 

[skeet9924]

I have a hi bebe and was just able to pick it up clearly today.. It's hard to find and I had to press pretty hard.. Bang is still low to the pubic bond so you have to look there.. Make sure that it's quiet in the room and listen very carefully..

 

[skeet9924]

Oh and I forgot to mention you may only be able to get it for a short time cause the baby may move.. I'm sure once your dr finds it it will be easier for you to locate

I'm a lime today yippee!

Got my scan tomorrow morning at 920. I'm so nervous but also looking forward to it at the same time. Just hope baby's grown as he should since my last scan and still has a good strong heartbeat. I was sick again this morning which was reassuring at least! I think once I've seen this scan and the measurements have been taken I should feel a lot more relaxed (hopefully!!)

If my doctor is correct i'm due 2 days after you .. I'm dying for my first scan as my period is irregular. but i think this was the first time this year i missed my period as i was getting it every 6 weeks :S for a change lol. xx

Push down HARD. And dont necessarily "move" it around. Put it in a spot and then pivot the wand around in different directions slowly. Then move it over a bit and do it again. I find I have to push down super super hard to get a clear HB. Good luck!

Hi everyone.

I was sick again this morning (think I sneezed and it happened like a few weeks ago!). Luckily I was still at home and hadn't left for work yet!

I've been off work for nearly a week on a little holiday and enjoyed having naps each day! I'm struggling a bit this afternoon. Want to put my head down and nap for a little bit.

I had a letter waiting for me at home yesterday. I apparently have unusual haemoglobin. I am a carrier for beta thalassaemia trait. Being a carrier in itself isn't a problem for me. It won't make me ill or cause me any damage. It will only possibly become a problem for my baby if my husband is also a carrier. We have to go to the antenatal clinic next week for him to have a blood test. If he is a carrier there is a 1 in 4 chance that our baby will have a blood disorder. We are hoping that he isn't a carrier (his family isn't from anywhere on the list of common areas around the world) but if he is we'll deal with whatever is thrown at us.

I might also be cheeky at the appointment and ask if she'll have a listen to the heartbeat!

Hello ladies,

I thought I was due early April, well the drs guessed that as we had a surprise unplanned pregnancy. I had some spotting yesterday so got an emergency scan today, thankfully all is well with LO and as a bonus they have dated us at 10weeks and 3 days, so EDD is 24th March. I think that's pretty cool as my daughters due date was the 24th as well!

All went well with her pregnancy but she got stuck during labour and I ended up with a forceps delivery, hoping to avoid that one again but so long as LO comes out safe I'm not fussed! Apparently now I have a tilted uterus so will be interested to see if that means anything or not.

Looking forward to meeting you all

I can't remember if I posted here or not. But my due date (right now) is 20th March. Which is about where I thought it was. So I be 11 weeks today!

Of course, reading this thread is making me freaking terrified, as I;m gathering this is the week where most people lose the babies.

hi ladies,
Just recently joined bnb, but have been following your thread for a few weeks. Guess I was just to shy and nervous to join sooner. I am 13 weeks today with baby #5. Hopefully I won't be to shy to post often. Congrats to all of you!
