March/April BFP's who's going for it!! NEW LADIES COME JOIN IN!!

[MamaTex]

I am sorry I am just now getting around to updating the thread!! I updated in the First Trimester section and then had to go back to sleep. I still feel drained after little sleep last night. Everything turned out to be ok. The ER doctor said that while she did notice some brown discharge, it would be the result of things moving around and pushing out old blood. I was so relieved!!! I tried to stay calm in the ER by making jokes because otherwise I would have been a nervous wreck. I have been taking it easy today and am snacking on an oatmeal raisin cookie as we speak. I think that after the events of last night, I deserve something to make me feel a little better!! Hehehe. I felt bad going out so late after my husband had worked a 12 hour shift, but he kept saying he was more than ok with it. He wasn't so cheerful when he had to get back up for work this morning but an enchilada plate he had for lunch seems to have given him some energy for today..Hope everyone else is doing well

[Starry Night]

What a relief! I wish there was some rule that says those carrying rainbows are not allowed to have any scares or random bleeds. It should all be smooth sailing!

 

[mackjess]

Oh Tex, thank goodness. Glad you got some rest and some goodies!

 

[nevergivingup]

MamaTex: thats the best news ever!! Yayy for you gurlie, now relax and rest and enjoy the rest of your pregnancy.

Mackjess: Yayyy Welcome to team boy!!! So far everyone is having boys in this thread except Bamagurl.

Heya ladies so can you tell me if im being completely unreasonable and out of order.
So i've mentioned before but you'll prob not remember my OH's cousin is having a baby, as if that's not bad enough as he is only 20 and his girlfriend is 19, it wasn't planned and I am terribly bitter and twisted about it. She's now 21 weeks and they have just found out it's a girl, that's doubly bad as i really wanted a girl, so the name they've picked is Emily Stella.

Stella was our name, now here comes the out of order bit, Stella is his mums name (my OH's aunty) she died when he was young so he's allowed to name his daughter after his mum I know this, except I wanted Stella! i suggested it to my OH because I like the name he agreed to it because it's aunty Stella's name, it was the one name we both liked.

My OH recons we can still have it as his cousin is only having it as a middle name but im just not sure about it anymore.

I can't really get upset about it can I yet I am, it feels like they've just come along and stolen my dream, and they're so young and they dont know what they're doing yet they get it all how is that fair?! im annoyed with myself for being bitter and angry about it when it's family and i should be happy for them. They never knew we wanted the name Stella and i did say to my OH at the time that he would ned to speak to him to ask if it would be ok just in case he wanted it for his child one day in like 10 years time not in 5 minutes time!
Sorry for the long winded post, i cant stop thinking about this.

 

[runnergrl]

Pink- I understand you being upset by this situation. all of it. You have every right to be. not defending them, but they had no idea Stella was your name, and your husband is right, you can totally still use it if you have your girl. I dont hear of anyone using their middle names to go by, so I think it would be fine. Its such a hard thing to go through, losing a baby, trying and not being succesful to have another.. we are all here for you.. but cry and be upset if you need to.. its good for you.

 

[ESwemba84]

Yay Mama! I bet that was scary. Glad to hear everything is ok!

Wow Mackjess, you found out really early. Congrats!

Nothing going on here. I've had some "pelvic discomfort" for the past 2 days after AF ended with some brown spotting, and some erratic temps (I've actually been super good about doing it at the same time each day), so wondering if this cycle will be anovulatory....

My RE appointment can't come fast enough!

Hope everyone has a good day!

Quick update bc running late lol

I have OB appt today. I'm dialted as of last Thursday 1 1/2cm, cervix is soft. They put me on turbutaline shot. Today I find out if dilated more and if they are going to continue the shots. I hope not bc they hurt and give me bad anxiety.

Mama glad ur ok

Wow another boy?! Cool lol

 

[bamagurl]

Good luck at your appt Sweetz! Let us know how it goes!

 

[runnergrl]

Im hoping to add another girl to the group but wont find out for another 5 weeks!

 

[bamagurl]

Runnergrl~ can't wait until you find out! Another little girl added to the group would be great! Do you have a feeling either way or just really hoping for another girl?

 

[runnergrl]

I have a very strong feeling baby is a girl. I knew my son was a boy and its the same kind of feeling. I will be very surprised if it is a boy, not disappointed, just surprised. Did you have any feeling?

 

[bamagurl]

I did but I thought maybe I was making myself feel that way because I really wanted another girl. I felt like she was a girl but convinced myself probably was a boy because I really wanted my daughter to have a sister even though I would have been just as happy with a little boy!

 

[nevergivingup]

YAYYY Sweetz on being Dialated (sp?) how awesome and exciting is that!! Ready to meet Baby Xander!

Runnergrl: FX for your little girl!

AFM: Tired Braxton Hicks every 5-10 minutes

 

[Sweetz33]

Same dilation and NO MORE SHOTS

Doc said if he comes.....let the boy come! Ultrasound set for Wednesday to check size, lungs & heart. Soooooo excited! Doc estimates that he will arrive some time next week possibly. ♥

Morning Ladies

Lots of good news on this thread

Mama - So pleased everything is okay for you - you must be back on

Sweetz - not long now if he can just hang in there a tiny bit longer

Never - Good news about Braxton Hicks (your body is behaving exactly as it should) you think this is bad - er wait till nearer the time

Runner - I would also like a little girl - but for me having a sticky bean at the moment will be a huge achievement

Mackjess - Congrats hun - that was a nice early surprise

Eswemba - Your appointment is soon isn't it - still waiting for mine from the recurrent m/c centre

Pink - Aw hun - I feel for you I really do, it seems everywhere you go ladies are pregnant and some of them in our opinion don't deserve to be I mean the ladies who are stood outside scanning hospitals smoking grrrrrr that really pisses me off! - How can they be having a good pregnancy and smoking too when I was really careful and lost 3 Life can seem so unfair at times but trust me when I say it will get easier, you will have your moments (I still do) the other night I said to hubby maybe he should have married a young pup who could give him a child of his own Then in the next breath we are planning a holiday which we couldn't go on if we had a baby - did I tell you I have a materninty bikini which I bought last year before and I am planning on wearing it so you see things do get better what has helped me is to concentrate on what I have and try and keep myself busy and for a while block all baby related comments on fb etc. Oh my this is turning into an essay - my best friend asked for my help on getting pregnant (as she knew I charted etc) when I was in the middle of the DNC - talk about insensitive but I did I helped her work out dates etc and guess what she is now due in April (and it hurt so bad) as I lost another one since, but now I am able to face her, talk about her pregnancy, even go baby shopping - so in time it will get easier, you never forget and the milestones are the worse but you will get through this and you will emerge a stronger person ready to hold your rainbow baby BIG BIG

Bama - How are your symptoms coming along

AFM - Not sure what is going on thought I have Od - time will tell until then off I go out on my Avon deliveries - Byeeeee
