May 2013 Babies

[EMTAmanda]

Pad- I have high hopes you will hear that thump thump thump very soon!!! how many weeks were your previous losses?

Mizz- I live out in te country and hubby works night shift but I'd act a dang fool if someone was making a ruckus at night!!!! I've lived in a town house before and wanted to scream out of my window at some hoodlums before after I worked a 24 hour EMT shift and they were outside arguing and slamming doors at 2am!!!! Out here in the sticks all I have to worry about is jeepers creepers and getting scared at night but I have Heidi (my 9mm) she gives me courage hahahaha!

I had a pretty good feeling day! The extra protein thing DOES work for nausea!!!!

[padbrat]

Mizz are you or your OH military then? Hope you can sort it out... stress aint good and that is from me.. the biggest stress head going!

Amanda you don't know how much I hope you are right!

 

[EMTAmanda]

Welcome kelly!

I'm at home with a very sick baby today my 10 month old has a fever and is feeling pretty crummy so it's lots of snuggles and resting for us today

 

[robinson380]

For any of you ladies who bled/ spotted after sex-how long did it last?

 

[MizzPodd]

Kelly- welcome and big congrats to your rainbow baby!!! How far along are you? I'm thinking about getting a Doppler but I wouldn't know which kind to get. I know some end up not working and that would probably freak me out.
I'm also very sorry for your loss

Pad- yes. I was in the military but got out and hubby is still in. We live in vase housing so it's one family connected to our house. The house next door is literally two feet away and they get on their patio making so much noise. Last night they left their dog out there for hours and they weren't even home!

Amanda- aww I hope your LO gets well soon poor boo boo
jeepers creepers! That is why I could never live that separate from people. I love your name for the protector.... Heidi.
I only wish people were considerate of others and their families. It's not that hard to have some decency... Or is it?


Robinson- sometimes it would be a few days and others it would only be a day or few hours on and off. I guess it depends on how sensitive the cervix is at that time? hope that helps.

Hey Mizz... my OH is in the British Army and we are in a military house that is semi detached. Our base is NATO and our next door neighbours are Dutch... fortunately they are really nice and quiet lol

I think if my next scan goes well I will consider a doppler... Sonic B and Angel Sounds seem to have good reviews

Welcome Kelly

 

[EMTAmanda]

I bled for 2 days after sex when it happened but it was light bleeding. I'm cramping now so I'm thinking maybe I have the stomach bug my little one has I hope not a sick mommy makes it really hard to be a caring mommy! I think I'll leave the chores for another day and rest some with my baby. A friend of mine has the angel sounds monitor and loves it!

EMTAMANDA: Hope you feel better. Stomach bugs are the worst.

:wave: Kelly - welcome!

I hope your little one feels better soon Amanda.

I'm feeling a bit out of it with the conversation about sex and bleeding. With hubby out in Afghan, I'm not getting any action in that department... I'm so jealous of you all!!!!

I'm 8 weeks today!

 

[MizzPodd]

Pad- lol I'm happy that at least you get piece and quiet. Luckily they don't do this every night but when they do its annoying.

Manu- don't be jealous for me because I'm not having sex due to wanting to be careful.... It may be a very long time before it happens again but this is how I was with my second pregnancy so we r used to waiting. Lol

AFM- okay I ask this in every forum because it is something that is craaaaaazy tmi lol does anyone here wake up with a big O sometimes during pregnancy?? Lol I don't even dream about anything sexual but I will wake up out of nowhere with a big O! Hubby always says I should wake him up lol but it's so weird because I cannot control it at all... It happens more frequently during my pregnancies.... Lol I know tmi but I can't figure out why it happens! I feel guilty but also happy when it happens lmao

 

[EMTAmanda]

Happy 8 weeks Manu!!!!!!!!

Welcome Kelly!!!

On home dopplers...I bought the Sonoline B with the last baby and unfortunately never got to use it. When should I give it a try??

 

[MissMummyMoo]

How's everyone doing today

Iluv I've been using my Doppler already but haven't found the HB yet however we have found the placenta which I'm happy with as the placenta wouldn't work if it wasn't feeding baby x

 

[ILuvBabies200]

MissMummy-Not to freak you out but I totally heard the placenta last time and baby had already passed. That's why I asked when a good time to check was. I want to hear that little heart beat as soon as I can!

 

[MissMummyMoo]

I guess there's conflicting evidence then as I didn't hear my placenta last time and I had a MMC but I have this time. A friend if mine who had a 2nd tri loss couldn't hear the placenta when her baby died. Might mention it to my MW today see what she thinks x

 

[ILuvBabies200]

What exactly do you listen for? The swishing sound of things passing through?? I swear I heard it but could be wrong.

 

[MissMummyMoo]

It sounds like wind passing your window iykwim? X

 

[Tournesol]

Hello ladies, how are you all?

I've been feeling terrible, really awful. My MS got so bad that I couldn't even keep water down. The day before yesterday, I went to work and was feeling like a zombie after being up since 4am with my head down the toilet. I managed to not throw up during the day but by the evening, it was uncontrollable.
After a completely sleepless night I went to see the doc yesterday, who signed me off work for 10 days with strict instructions to relax and he gave me some stronger tablets to keep the MS at bay. He also gave me a quick scan to calm my nerves. I saw my little bean who now measures 23mm and heard a lovely heartbeat.
I'm so pleased I have such a lovely doctor, he even gave me a free photo of bean! How sweet. He did tell me off though. He said I've been over doing it and I must stop pushing myself. I didn't realise I was to be honest! My job is very physically strenuous though and I can't stand to be idle, so I guess I have been over doing it a bit.
Ah well, I shall be bored on the sofa for the next 10 days!

Bleeding after sex sounds scary! It hasn't happened to me, but I can't say I've been up to it lately! OH isn't too keen on being puked on mid hump!

I hope you're all OK and feeling good xx

 

[MissMummyMoo]

Tournesol, fingers crossed you can rest up and the new tablets hekp with the sickness. I can imagine how your feeling as I was the same with DS.

I'm ok, feeling a little sicky again today and really achey. Hoping that I can have a nice relaxing night x
