May 2013 Babies

[ILuvBabies200]

Miss-I know exactly how you feel!!! I lost the last baby at 7 weeks and we didn't find out until 9 weeks. I haven't even seen this one yet and I'm analyzing everything. It's so debilitating at times. There is no relaxing and happy thoughts. Just fear.....

MMM - Being PAL is so hard. I'm sorry you're feeling panicky. Van you call your doctor/midwife for a reassurance scan? I'm sure everything is fine as we both know symptoms can come and go. I know mine have been all over the place.. some days are definitely better than others! After a blissful week and a half of no spotting, I woke up to go to the bathroom last night and there was one of those brown tissue-y fragments again on the toilet paper. All we can do is have faith... and bug our doctors to see us! I'll be thinking of you and keeping my fingers crossed. *hugs*

 

[MissMummyMoo]

It is

I don't think my doctor would send me for scan, I think he'd just say that symptoms come and go. I feel a bit of a pain getting another scan as I have already had 2. I think I'm just going to wait until I see my MW on Friday and see what she says x

Hello lovely ladies!! How is everyone today?

Manu- Beautiful scan girlie!!

Tour- awww, you can have one Big Mac if you want! lol Don't punish yourself lol And I was feeling dizzy too but I just drank alot of water, and it slowly got a little better. I felt some of the same symptoms but all is well Hope you feel better soon... and hydrate hydrate hydrate!!!

MMM- Don't worry sweety, I am sure you are okay. I certainly understand why you are feeling like this. This is my 1st pregnancy where the MS isn't terrible, so it made me feel a little skittish because I am so used to having it nonstop!!. I think I will start getting anxious around the 18 week mark, that i where I lost my angel. She was so strong because she had a heartbeat for almost 2 hours before God sent his angels down. Hang in there sweetie!

Iluv- Thank you for your kind words... I think it was meant to be, to show me that I have a new rainbow baby growing healthy and strong

AFM- I started working out again this morning, and it felt great!! I felt a little sick afterwards but I chalk that up to not eating before working out. I have little MS which is nice, but still a little nervwrecking because my MS is always prominent and awful with my pregnancies. Well maybe I am having a beautiful baby boy!! My two girls gave me MS 24/7. That is what I am telling myself to keep from stressing and worrying too much. No matter what, everything will happen for a reason even if I do not know why, so I just have to stay OPTIMISTIC!! I pray all of my bump buddies who feel apprehensive right now that you relax and try to imagine the little baby growing healthy and strong in your wombs. Ladies my heart goes out to you, and I just hope we all post pics of our newborns in May

Big MMM. I'm sure everything's fine. Remember HCG levels start to level off around 8-11 weeks so maybe that's all that's happened to you and that's why you're feeling better.

I also had a bit of brown blood when I wiped yesterday. Not a lot we can do besides hope for the best at this point. We can do this girls!!!

 

[MizzPodd]

I agree with Manu... I have been bleeding on and off for over two weeks now and I refuse to just give up. Ive had a scan and everything looked normal. I don't know where the blood is coming from, but it's not my cervix thank God. I promise I know how scary it must feel because my stomach kind of drops everytime I see I am bleeding, like last night for example. Ladies let's stay positive and keep supporting each other! We are strong tough women and can get through anything! to everyone.

 

[Tournesol]

I did it! I had a Maccy dees! It was great until I felt sick afterwards! Still, it seems to have put my craving at bay for now and I'm back on cereal and toast for my poor sicky tummy!

I bought myself a pair of maternity leggings today!
I had to do it, the leggings I've been wearing lately have been cutting into me, right across the belly, not comfy. OH says my belly is looking bigger. It might just be bloating though. Is it too early to show?

 

[Tournesol]

Please do try to stay positive everyone, I know it's hard, but thinking happy thoughts is all we can do xxx

Manu- beautiful lovely scan my dear!!!!!!

I have a midwife appointment tomorrow and I am requesting a scan for the following day I'm so excited and feeling pretty optimistic! We lost our last one at 9 weeks and I am 9 weeks now and just feel like everything is fine I'm exhausted, sick, and gassy but that's it.....no emotional roller coaster like both sons and no sore boobies....maybe this is my princess??? Time will tell!!!!

 

[Courtney917]

Great scan Manu!!!

I will be 10 weeks tomorrow!!!! Two more weeks and ill be saying bye to the 1st tri!!! I too am feeling sick all day. It's like sea sickness and doesn't go away. Over the weekend it was slightly better but I think its due to the fact that I wasn't paying attention bc I was busy. The fatigue has hit me hard! I am so exhausted its ridiculous. Anyone else have fatigue hit them all of a sudden? I'm worried that its my thyroid acting up again. Hoping that's not the case!!! Not sure if I should alert my endo of this or just wait the two weeks when I get blood drawn?

Mine is exactly like sea sickness! I call it waves of nausea I have been exhausted as well. I took several naps over the weekend and wish I was napping now, but I am at work

Lol its horrible! I'm lucky to not be working right now bc we moved to another state. I remember feeling like crap during my last pregnancy when I wad working and it wad horrible especially bc I'm a teacher :-/. Hope you get some sleep soon!!

 

[EMTAmanda]

Courtney I'm 9 weeks 2 days and you sound just like me!!! I have no desire to do ANYTHING between being exhausted and nauseas I just want my couch all day. I really need to do some cleaning like steam mopping the hardwoods but I'm just too tired

It's terrible! I feel bad for my kiddies bc I have NO energy! Did it just hit you recently? It just happened within the last week or so for me.

 

[MightyMom]

I lived on the couch this weekend. I can't get to sleep and I can't wake up either. I tried to work some this weekend then was so tired the rest of the day I could barely lift my arms. ARG! Darn you week 8 exhaustion!!

 

[EMTAmanda]

Mine hit me about a week and a half ago. I told hubby tonight that I feel so guilty for letting myself and the house go in the past two weeks but I'm so sick and tired I dont feel like doing anything lately but eating and sleeping!

 

[ILuvBabies200]

6 week milestone!!! 1 week until my scan!! I do the PIO injections and boy is my booty sore! Definitely worth it though!

 

[EMTAmanda]

I have to get the RH injections in my butt iluv do I feel your pain!

I was an EMT when I got pregnant with ds#2 but my doc put me out of work because of the heavy lifting involved and the hazards like getting attacked by crazy patients (it's happened to me before) and I've been a stay at home mom ever since and I've told hubby I'm never going back to work. It's pointless with three kids.

Midwife appointment in the morning!!!!!

 

[MizzPodd]

Hey girls! I wanted to say that the same thing happens to me with the nausea but it starts 6 weeks instead of 8 or 9. However, right now I am feeling okay because the nausea is nowhere near what I'm used to. It comes and goes but not like my two previous pregnancies!

Oh and I had to take insulin shots twice a day with dd1 because of GD and trust me it wasn't fun! Plus being on bed rest! But I'll do it all again if it means I get my healthy rainbow baby in my arms in May the only thing I'm concerned about is how to care for my toddler if I do end up on bed rest again....

 

[Courtney917]

My sickness started at 6 weeks and the fatigue for really bad at 9. I'm 10 weeks today!!! I'm on 400 mg of progesterone do you ladies think that's the reason for my sickness? Ugh I'm so worried bc I have to start weaning myself off of it soon. Anyone else on supplements that they have to stop soon?
