Worth every penny! HB 169 beats per minute and I got to hear it too! Baby looks like a gummy bear! Seriously tears in my eyes! We are making it! I have tons of pics and I plan to go back for sure! Getting a migraine right now so if this is all messed up it's because I can't see. ;)
 
Awwww Iluv, that's wonderful!!! :happydance:

Pad - poo poo to hubby! Mine didn't get a say, but that's one of the perks of when they're away. hehe.

cupcake - how did your blood test go hun? Hope your nausea eases off soon!

Amanda - hope you feel better soon.
 
Cupcake- aww I hope you feel better and get your blood results. :hugs:

Amanda- lol you sound like me... During my first and second pregnancy I was always buying chick fila or other fast food even though I was super nauseated! Lol I just couldn't help myself...

Iluv- that is great news! I think you should definitely go back there!:)

Pad- maybe you can persuade him when you're further along and just let him know it will be much "easier" to find the heartbeat? Oh hubby's suck sometimes lol
Oh yeah... Any Big Macs lately? Hee Hee :)
 
Eek I bought a Big Mac bc of this thread. Afterwards I felt soooooooooo gross!!!! At least I got the craving out of my system! Looks like everyone is doing well! Sorry I have been MIA...my computer was in for repairs:/. I have my 12 week scan tomorrow, so exciting!
 
Courtney - good luck. Hope all goes well for you!

MMM- great news on heartbeat! Will definitely have to meet up. I am in Switzerland Thur/Fri this week but think things calm down after then!

Padbrat- I am also not allowed a Doppler. Men are rubbish!

EMT - allergies must suck. Even more so because you can't take anything for them!

Cupcake - vomiting sucks. I have suffered a little this time but not like you are. I hope try managed to get your bloods.

Mizz - glad the spotting is lessening.

ILuv - yay for the good scan (and also the price!).

Anyone else - hope all is well x
 
Morning ladies.

I had some stomach pain this morning (due to constipation I think) and then a tiny bit of pink after I went to the loo.

Tried not to worry too much as I have a very sensitive cervix.

But just in case I thought I'd have a little go with my doppler.

Found my lovely little train!!! Chugging away beautifully exactly like the 3 other 10 week doppler videos I watched on YouTube to double check.

Felt bad as I did it while DH was in the loo, so when he came out I did it again and we heard or for a few seconds then they chugged away and hid lol.

I'm a happy mummy today. :)
 
Congrats cupcake and Iluv, isn't it lovely to hear the heartbeats?

I have to say I wouldn't get a doppler myself. I just can't be doing with unnecessary worry and stress if I couldn't hear anything.

How's everybody's sickness? I am still SO sick. I had one day when I thought I was better, no puking, lots to eat, all good! The next day however, it was back! Apparently baby thought I needed a day off! Ugh.
 
Thanks sweetie.

I've not really had any luck with the doppler up until today, and I've had mine for a week.

To be honest I wasn't as worried about it really, as I knew it was early, but I'm very happy now I've heard it.

Even when I couldn't find the prune I could hear my placenta which was pretty cool.

My sickness is still pretty bad. Retching most days at some point and sick maybe every 2-3. But the 24/7 nausea isn't as bad as it was weeks 6-8, and I can actually think of foods that are tasty rather than just eating plain potatoes or pasta so I think that's progress.

Feeling a bit rough this morning as I didn't take my afternoon anti-sickness tablet last night for the first time in 2 weeks, but I have taken one this morning, so fingers crossed it kicks in soon-ish.

Just had a banana and having a cup of (Decaf) tea, so hopefully that should settle me a bit. Although I've found lately that bananas make my mouth feel all furry.
 
Furry mouth?! Gag!!

Out of interest, what tablets are you taking?
My doctor has given me some anti sickness pills too, but I'm a bit reluctant to take them. I'm just trying to ride it out with a homeopathic remedy, Nux Vomica. If I get too bad, I will try the ones doc gave me (Domperidone) but they do state not to take during pregnancy unless absolutely necessary.
 
I'm taking Cariban, which I got in Spain. They don't have it here in the UK :(

It's the same as dicletin (sp?!) which has been taken in Canada for over 40 years with no side effects. So I'm happpy to take it. I think it's doxylamine or something. I know it's an antihistamine and vitamin B6 mixed. Has helped me a lot I think.
 
Courtney - good luck with you scan!

cupcake - yay for finding your little train! :happydance:

Tour & Cupcake - hope you girls get a break & start feeling better soon! :hugs:

Afm - 4th day of not having to will myself not to yack. Still a little queasy but it's nothing in comparison to what it's been like. I'm really hoping this is me turning the corner and on my way to saying goodbye to ms. That said, I've probably jinxed it now. lol

Hope everyone else is doing ok. :hugs:
 
Good luck Courtney :flower:

It's amazing isn't it cupcake :cloud9: congrats hun and I hope you start feeling better soon :hugs: you too Tour :flower:

Fingers crossed Manuiti my MS started to curb slightly at 8 1/2 weeks but then it picked up again :lol: at least I can eat food again at the minute :)

How's everyone else? X
 
Oooo Mizz... Had a big mac yesterday... and today... I am soo ashamed... but I was literally the first out of the office for lunch and virtually drooling at the thought of it... urghh not a good look!

Storm... pah to men. You know what my Hubby said aside from the paranoia remark... that it was £30 saved towards when the baby is here.... sneaky bugger trying to soften the blow!

Manu I may wait til Hubby goes away again in a couple of weeks and buy one! Hahha

Court and Ilove good luck with your scans!!

Congrats on hearing HB on your doppler Cup!

Miss and Tour.. funny you mention MS as mine seems to have returned... not sure if it is MS or hunger sickness... I am getting even hungrier at the mo, even waking up in the middle of the night cos I am hungry... sad I know lol
 
Thanks Pad.

I'm starving ALL-THE-TIME!! I wake up at 3/4am and have to eat. And I eat before bed and am still famished when I wake up. It's so annoying. :(

I'm throwing up every day at the moment but normally just acid/water so although its nasty I'm not concerned for pruney.
 
Oh that's pants MMM & Pad! Maybe I shouldn't get too hopeful then.

I have just admitted to myself that as of today I officially can no longer do up my jeans and feel vaguely comfortable. I was doing the whole elastic band around the buttons thing but now the zip's feeling restrictive. It's just ok if I'm standing up but sitting down... :haha: Belly band is being put to use.
 
Oooh that's exciting manuiti!!

My jeans are similar so have been in leggings mainly.

But as we heard the HB this morning I was thinking maybe it's time to get some new jeans.

As I was browsing various websites I got sent an email with a £15 off code for vertbaudet when you spend £20, plus free postage, plus a little toy for baby.

So I got a pair of £29 jeans for £14 including delivery and a little toy for pruney. :) Hope they are nice.
 
Hi ladies! Just got back from my scan!!!! Baby looks wonderful :). Heart is good at 176 BPM and baby is measuring ahead!!! Looks like I am 13.2 weeks, making my due date April 22nd, so I still may be a May Mommy but not likely as I usually go early!! I asked for a prediction on gender but the tech was a miserable old witch and said its impossible. I was like well, they predicted at this stage with my son and they were correct! She was sooooo miserable. We were rushed in and out, didn't even get to hear heart!!! I was so upset. It was meant to be a good experience for all of us and she was just a total jerk! Sorry for the rant I am just upset :(
 
Courtney- How nice is that?! Measuring ahead?! That's how I was too, almost a week! I think your baby is like Mama I am growing fast so I can meet you! Awww
And I can't stand when you get a stupid cranky nurse. I am grateful not to experience that with an ultrasound. Those techs need to be more cheerful if they are giving baby scans... It's not like it's gonna be a depressing moment when parents see their baby on the screen... Why have that job if you are going to be a joy kill?

Pad- LOL awww that's okay preggos :) I have been nauseated on and off throughout the day, but I tell you this is the best it's ever been during any pregnancy so I am happily sick lol


I hope everyone's sickness eases up a bit. I am having waves throughout the day, but it's not as bad as I normally get so I can't complain too much!! I really want a baby doppler but I don't want to freak out if I can't hear it? What type should I get ladies and should I even get one?
