May 2013 Babies

[cgav1424]

Great scan, MissMummy! Looks like a little gummy bear.

I have my scan tomorrow and am petrified. I've been spotting (I know it's brown, but it's still scary) for nearly a week now and woke up this morning and didn't feel as pregnant. My bb's weren't as sore and I wasn't queasy at all.

I'm trying to remain hopeful for the best, but kind of expecting the worst.

Anyway, hope everyone has a great day!

What a lively scan miss!!!!!!! Congratulations!!!!

Oh my goodness I can totally relate to the grocery store horrors!!! Let me tell yall about my experience last week!!!!....while walking down three aisles I smelt something horrible and do over powering I could barely breathe but I had no idea what it was....UNTIL....I spotted a very heavy set older greasy haired employee stocking spaghetti sauce and when he bent over I couldn't help but seeing a huge brown streak up the crack of his khaki pants!!!! I nearly puked in my buggy! It was horrible!!!! I mean WHO continues working if they've soiled their self???? Gag!!!!

I really need to go to the grocery today too but honestly don't think I can bare it! I'm so tired and icky feeling i'm doing good that I even showered today! I think I'll pick up some candies to suck on and give that a go and see how it works for sickness! We're getting further along ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[EMTAmanda]

Cgav- good luck sweetie!!!! I was so nervous that I was shaking so bad I was worried she wouldn't be able to finish the scan because I could not be still at all!

 

[MizzPodd]

MissMummy-awwww your little peanut is adorable!!! I'm so happy everything went well. :woohoo:

Tournesol- I don't think you are being paranoid at all. It is completely normal to feel a little apprehensive
I've had heartburn all day it's so bad I can't eat. I forced myself to eat some cereal and a banana... Regretting it so much now lol
Sorry about Big Mac, we wouldn't want to add you to our junk food craving addiction group! Lol I think all pregnant women should automatically be in that group :heehee:

I can feel the nausea getting a little stronger, especially when I eat something! I never vomited with pregnancy but have violent gagging constantly. I wonder if this pregnancy will be better or worse... Guess we shall see right?

Hope everyone is doing pretty good today!

 

[MizzPodd]

Cgav- stay optimistic sweetie I know it may be difficult but we are all here for you and sending happy healthy vibes your way!!

Amanda- you guys are making me freak out about the grocery store now LOL I am on the brink of starting my full blown MS and tomorrow I am going to get food... Mainly for birthday preparations. Dh birthday is tomorrow, my mom is Saturday, and DD1 is Sunday!! Omg I am going to be broke! Lol

 

[pink_bow]

I am useless at keeping up with this thread, but wanted to let you all know that I had a scan today as I had some spotting over the weekend. Baby is fine and we saw a lovely little heartbeat! x

 

[snowflakes120]

Since most of you girls are ahead of me. I am only going to be 5 weeks tomorrow. Is it pretty normal to not really be feeling anything at all? Like I got my BFP about a week and a half ago and I feel no more symptoms have progressed for me. I'm not tired, I haven't had any cramping or twinges in days, no nausea and no weight gain. I just have some sore boobs which is prolly from my progesterone. My last MC was the same way with no symptoms and I am just so scared of having another one. So normal or should I be a bit worried? I just don't know. I'm not feeling all that confident about this one.

 

[MizzPodd]

Pink- so very happy for you!!! so nice to get reassurance

Snowflake- I'm sorry you're stressed about this, but I think you should just try and tell yourself it's normal. I'm almost 6 weeks and honestly just started feeling the symptoms more. I had heartburn and stuff for a few weeks but my boobs aren't that sore and I don't feel any heavier just relax and remember that every woman does not experience many or any symptoms. Some do and some don't please relax although I know it's way easier said than done. Don't worry

 

[Tournesol]

OMG!!! Nobody buy spaghetti sauce from Amanda's local grocery! GAG!

Snowflake, don't worry, symptoms come and go and everybody is different. I'm sure you'll be fine.

Cgav, good luck with your scan. Try to be positive, it's all you can do.

MizzPodd, my indigestion has now progressed into heartburn. I got some Gaviscon but it doesn't work, so I'm feeling your pain hun

 

[MightyMom]

Haha. I ate 3 burgers in 24 hours last week! Good luck at scan! I think it'll be abdominal instead of what I like to call dildo cam. They might do both

Funniest thing I have read EVER!

AFM- My appointment went well yesterday! She did not see any bleeding or anything abnormal. When she did the scan she just saw a little blood build up that was okay. The sac is where it is supposed to be so that's a big relief!!! I am only 5 weeks and 5 days today, so my ticker is off. My period cycle is not the "normal" 28 days, more like 31 days so I wasn't surprised when the doctor said I was not 6 weeks yet. According to MY calculations, I am where I need to be. Unfortunately, all we could see was the sac because I was so early on, so I have to wait until Oct, 10th my official scan date to see my little rainbow baby/ HB. I can't wait!!
Oh, and the doctor said we would get the results from our previous baby, and all documents so we can change everything to HER name... I feel that our angel is getting closer to being at true peace. Everyday I see the boy's name on her urn, it is so frustrating but we are closer to getting her papers fixed.
I haven't had true MS yet, but I feel it's comin on soon... 6 weeks is only a few days away BUt like I said before, I'll go through any kind of discomfort for this baby to be healthy and on time

**I will starting my preggo workout back up starting today since the doc said I was fine... I want my arms to stay toned and butt to stay nice and high LOL

Yay! Glad your scan went well! Don't worry about the dates being off. They can't get the same measurement twice in a row ever. I'm glad that everything is progressing to getting your angel's name changed in the system. Hopefully it will bring some finality and closure to the tragedy and help your heart heal.

Well baby was there all healthy and heartbeating I burst out crying
Measuring 8 weeks which is almost bang on my dates x

Yay!! Congrats! Such a lovely scan pic!!

I have my scan tomorrow and am petrified. I've been spotting (I know it's brown, but it's still scary) for nearly a week now and woke up this morning and didn't feel as pregnant. My bb's weren't as sore and I wasn't queasy at all.

I'm trying to remain hopeful for the best, but kind of expecting the worst.

I was googling "no symptoms" the week after my BFP because I didn't have ANY. But then the MS started and I really regretted wanting symptoms, LOL!

I am useless at keeping up with this thread, but wanted to let you all know that I had a scan today as I had some spotting over the weekend. Baby is fine and we saw a lovely little heartbeat! x

Congrats on the scan!! Hope the spotting eases and everything stays fine!

I just don't know. I'm not feeling all that confident about this one.

Like I said before, I really didn't have any symptoms until all of a sudden I was nauseated and peeing all the time and my boobs were sore and I got headaches: all at once! I kept thinking the worst, that I must be having another m/c because I was so symptom free, then BAM! Too many to list. Try not to worry too much about it.
When I was pregnant with DD I never had any symptoms. First time I actually "felt" pregnant was when the baby kicked at 23 weeks, because I never felt a thing!

 

[Tournesol]

Congrats pink bow!

Snowflake, I was just thinking back to when I was at 5w this time around. I had no symptoms at all. No tiredness, no nausea, nothing, it all come on much later this time.
First time I was feeling really tired and a bit queasy in the mornings from about 4w. So do try not to worry yourself. You're in the early days and every pregnancy is different x

I'm sorry for your loss and pray your rainbow baby is healthy
My official first scan is oct 10th. A big congrats on your current pregnancy.

 

[MizzPodd]

Tournesol- I mean it just hits me out of nowhere! Last night I woke up feeling it bad and then this morning... When I drink cold water it kind of makes the heartburn and indigestion settle. But hey anything for our baby's health

 

[EMTAmanda]

Pink- yay for a little flickering heart beat!!!!!

Sian- welcome sweetie! I am due May 4th

As far as symptoms I don't think mine really kicked into high gear until the middle of my 7th week but at 5 weeks I had NONE and I never did have any sore boobs this time and I'm 8 weeks an we've seen the little heart beating away!

I just took on the grocery again and I WILL NOT be going back there.... I bought some "seedless" grapes and they have seeds in every single one....so between the poo pants employee, seeded grapes, and my witchy hormonal mood I'm never going back there haha!

 

[padbrat]

OMG Amanda... poopy pants in a grocery store??? That is disgusting! Never go back there!

Pink, Mummy and Mizzy lovely news on the scan ladies! Congratulations!!

Welcome to our mad crew Sian....

Cgav good luck today chick for your scan x

Snow we all get a different range of symptoms chick... all at different time... I have very little MS, but have plenty of other symptoms.. don't worry chick.

Hey Tour.... how is it going at work for you.

 

[padbrat]

p.s. I am the hamburglar.... 2 big macs in 2 days.... shhhh... nawty nawty!

 

[MissMummyMoo]

Thank you all

Congrats Pink and Mizzy that's brilliant

Amanda that is disgusting who on earth would do that?!

Snow as Pad says we all have different symptoms at different times however I do know that it's easier said than done.

OMG Pad I've just eaten a roast chicken dinner and 1/2 treacle sponge pudding with custard and I could probably eat a big mac too I think night time's make up for my sickness in the day! x

 

[MizzPodd]

Amanda- woooooow! Are you serious??! I would never go back to that store with Mr. Poopy pants there! Lol oh and I hate seeded grapes too!


Pad- lol Hambuglar is clever. I can't believe I am saying this, but when I thought about Big Mac just now, I got a little nauseous!! Nooooooo my precious Big Mac.......... Lol

Thanks btw, can't wait to hear HB in October for the first time.

 

[MizzPodd]

MissMummy- I can relate! I seem to always want to eat late at night after being nauseated all day. I wonder how the MS is going to be for me this time around.
