May 2013 Babies

[EMTAmanda]

I don't know what the strange pain was but it went away this Saturday I will be 8 weeks!!! I'm beginning to feel much more confident especially with how exhausted I am but my breast never did start really hurting...I've come to the theory that the old girls must just be calloused and worn out and used to the beatings from my previous pregnancies hahaha! Something different this time though is that I have NO Sex drive... Usually I want it all the time but I want nothing to do with it... Poor hubby!

How beautiful man!!!!!!! Congrats!!!! What an absolutely lovely scan!!!! Yay for hearts pumping away!!!!!!!

Tash tell me about it... I have never cried so much... and at stupid things... I was watching King Kong and sobbed my eyes out for hours... it isn't even a real gorilla?????

Thanks Mizz... BTW I am hoping that pickles mean a girl! Never craved them before... and is such a cliche that OH thought I was kidding him when I ate a whole jar full in an afternoon! Would be so interested to hear your symptoms that you had for your Daughter vs this one. x

Tour.. you know what you have it right! May 2013 will be a good month!

To be honest, my symptoms for both previous pregnancies were slightly different, but they were both girls. I thought the second baby was a boy because the symptoms were different, but nope another beautiful girl, my precious sleeping angel. Among both pregnancies I had terrible MS which got worse with 2 pregnancy... My MS did not get better the whole 2nd pregnancy-about 5 months... My first pregnancy got better with MS after middle of 2nd trimester.

Terrible heartburn with first, and second... worse with this current pregnancy.
Sore boobs with first was terrible. But with second and this one, not so bad.
major fatigue with first one, medium with second, and this one is more fatigue.
Sciatic pain with all three, plus spotting on and off.
Metallic taste with second pregnancy and only pregnancy... A little taste this pregnancy but hardly noticeable.

This is the first pregnancy that I craved pickles, so that's y I am thinking boy! lol

Everyone thought my first daughter was a boy because of my stomach, so I never believe the mid wives tale. lol

Omg omg omg girls! I called this other doctor that my RE had recommended in town. Turns out he's actually a student of my RE and was visiting home! He said if I could jump in my car and head down to the clinic now, he could see me before he set off back to the city. So of course I did and I got my scan over a week early!!!! My little baby bear was measuring 6w+1 and I got to see its little heartbeat pumping away at 109bpm. He said that was fine for now as it's only really just started beating and should start to speed up soon. So hopefully that will be the case during my next scan on the 29th. Ooooh, I'm so excited! I'd really managed to convince myself that there wasn't going to be anything there so I'm just over the moon right now. Yippee!

I don't mean to be so personal but has anyone else lost their sex drive? Like I don't want it at all....never....actually makes me kinda icky feeling thinking about it :-/ I've NEVER been like this before

[manuiti]

Awww, thanks so much girls. You've all made me start grinning all over again.

My LO heartbeat was 110 at the same time so I know you are ok!!! I had another scan yesterday and the HB went up to 179!!!!!

Thanks so much for that reassurance Courtney, that's made me feel much more confident.

I'm not really sure Amanda. My hubby's been away since we found out we were pregnant so neither of us are getting any anyway, but I can't say I'm missing it tbh.

I love that pad!!! It really is, isn't it.


And here's one for all of us. It's a really odd, misty, sunny morning here and as I was looking out of the window this rainbow suddenly appeared through the mist. I took the photo and it disappeared again. So I figured I'd share it as I reckon it's a good sign for all of our rainbow babies.

With first pregnancy it was high, second I felt like throwing up every time I thought about sex.. Lol
This time, it's kinda normal since I am only 5 weeks, once MS kicks in I lose my sex drive. But we will see because each pregnancy was opposite lol
Also to avoid problems I am not having sex... I will probably have placenta pervia again and sex is a big no no if you have that. It's when you have a low lying placent. Now I know what caused my early labor and the stupid doctors ignored me when I asked about it and told them my first pregnancy I had a low lying placenta I know my baby could have made it they believed me

But that is in the past and I refuse to let it make me go crazy. I just know my current baby will make it all the way because I know what I need to do if my placenta is low again. I'm happy God showed me this so now I can protect this growing innocent baby

Hey Ladies, how is everyone today? Happy Friday!! So, I am so relieved. I went for my first appt yesterday and I love my doctor. Since we had the mmc in June, she did an "under the table" ultrasound just so we could see the heartbeat since insurance will only pay for 1!!! We did not get to keep a picture but we were able to see little bean and a healthy heartbeat. She also called me in progesterone to begin taking while she waits for the results of my bloodwork too. Of course, I am still very cautious because we saw a heartbeat and healthy bean at 7w4d last time and the baby stopped growing at a little over 9 weeks.

 

[MizzPodd]

Robinson- I'm glad you had great news and got to see the heartbeat! How exciting!!!

 

[Tasha]

I have had my twelth miscarriage. I am obviously devestated and wondering why I have to suffer all these loses as well as my two girls.

I am hoping and praying for you all girls.

 

[MizzPodd]

Tasha my heart goes out to you sweetie I'm so sorry for your many losses. You babies are so special that God needs them. They are watching you and protecting their 3 siblings. I wish I had the words to help you feel a little better but I know no words can take away your pain. I pray you are okay. Big HUGS

 

[Tournesol]

Robinson- Congratulations, that's great news. Keep thinking positive

Tasha- My heart literally just sank to my feet when I read that. I am so so sorry.
