Mid June and July Firecrackers Group Due June/July 2017!

[Ellie Bean]

Had US & labs today at RE's office. Baby's heart rate was 168. Measuring 11 weeks 2 days (I'm 10 weeks 6 days today). We're officially released from their clinic and go to see perinatology Dec 8!

 

[Tui]

One little bean measuring 8w. Yay!

They only did a belly scan so not very clear pic.

 

[Mummafrog]

Oh my gosh beautiful scan pictures yaay!! so glad all is well with everyone.
Can't wait to see this little one.. is it sad I have already started talking to it?

My nipples are definitely getting sore and my boobs are veiny now, I'm getting more spots than usual (nooo!) my uterus feels very obvious all the time and I am big anyway but I swear my tummy is stuck out and rounder.. like I can usually hide it more under clothes I'm sure haha.

 

[Girly922]

Aww! Congrats on the scans tui and Ellie bean! I hate to wish time away but I wish I could fast forward to mine.

I've been talking to mine too mummafrog, mainly things like 'stay comfy in there' Lol.

 

[Aphy]

Those scans are wonderful ladies, so glad everything is going on track and all is well!

Mummafrog, its not sad at all that you are speaking to your little poppyseed, I think its so cute!

I wish the paranoia would subside my side. It disappeared after I got my digital 2-3 weeks cause then I knew that things are doubling as it should but for the past 2 days I haven't had any queasiness so the paranoia starts acting up again. I'm sure its normal for nausea to come and go right?

 

[xxmyheartxx]

Hi babies 😀

Aphy, it's so hard isn't it? I really want to go and buy more tests even though I know it makes no difference at all. I hate this period in the first tri, nausea can come and go especially this early on, all we can do is take it a day at a time

 

[Sambatiki]

Hi Ladies,

Sorry I have been MIA Welcome and Congrats to all the newbies!! xxx

Star - I am so sorry I'm absolutely gutted for you

AFM - I've been a very busy bee but I had my private US on Saturday last week and we have a keeper! Feeling very sick every day now but I've not actually been sick, in some ways I wish I could be in the hope that it would make me feel better.

Anyway here is bean at 6w 6d

Good luck to everyone with scans today x

 

[Thejoie]

Look at all those beautiful scans!!!!

I know what you mean Aphy. My husband is even more paranoid than I am- to the point where he's a bit pessimistic and doesn't even want to tell our close friends. I'm nervous but I tend to be a bit more open.
I want to buy the clear blue weeks estimator to see the progression there too. I still take a test and temp every morning... it's such a hard time of uncertainty

 

[Aphy]

I stopped temping a few days after bfp...my temps didn't generally stick to what you would normally expect so didn't see the point of stressing myself over low temps that could actually mean nothing. Been using ic to try track progression and that helps a bit while I wait til I can do the next cb digital to get the 3+weeks. Unfortunately we are all very much more aware of everything that can potentially go wrong because of other people's experiences so until my baby is safely in my arms,I don't think I am going to be non-paranoid. It just really helps to hear that it isn't just me!

 

[Girly922]

I know it's not much help yet Aphy, but kicks and movements are the most reassuring thing in the world. Once I'm at that point I'll relax so much

 

[Gagrlinpitt]

Look at those scans!!! I get to schedule mine today however it won't be for two weeks!!!!!! The wait continues lol.

Aphy I didn't realize you and I are bump buddies!

 

[Ad0rkkable]

Results back 954. Doc is very happy and we are done with betas.. From #1 to #4 is been doubling every 48 hours!!! Now the nurse will call me tomorrow and I'll schedule our first ultrasound the first week of December!!

Great news!!!!!

 

[Sambatiki]

Errrrmmmm I may have tested most days until 6 weeks so carry on ladies if its something that keeps your reassured!

Has anyone else got a Doppler? I'm getting mine out next week at some point!

 

[Girly922]

I've got one sambatiki, I used it with DD, but I won't even try to find this ones hb until around 13 weeks I think. We have a hospital grade one at work though that I might try using before that

 

[Mummafrog]

Aphy and Girly I'm glad you think so hehe. It just feels like I'm never alone when I'm pregnant, I've got a little person with me all the time, no matter how tiny it helps me to believe they're there too.

Loving all the scans I'm sure more are coming hehe.

Girly where do you work? I'm in maternity so have them around too haha, I'll use one when I'm 10 weeks or something

 

[Girly922]

I'm in general practice. Hoping I can bump into the midwife when she's in next week to book my booking in appt on the sly. Not ready for work to know yet!

So tonight I've come over really nauseous! Hubby doesn't believe I can feel sick yet as its too early to have ms. I'm hoping it's not the start of ms but it was triggered at the sight of dinner as I was dishing it up.

 

[Weebles]

Just wondering how your scan went today wannabe.. Thinking of you and I hope all is well.

I'm sooo frustraited with my weight and body composition right now. I'm only up a pound or two but it feels and looks like so much more since I haven't hit the gym since the SCH. I just don't want to risk it but it's hard to cope and I can't even diet to help offset the lack of activity. I still go for a daily walk but it's not the same as lifting. Blah.

 

[Thejoie]

It definitely helps to hear I'm not alone.

I just told my co worker about the new house we are building and apparently it's 2min from where she lives and then she got all excited and said that her daughter will totally baby sit for my kid whenever we have and I smilesd and her jaw dropped and she exclaimed "you're pregnant!!!"

Ladies- remind me to never play poker. I don't have a good poker face.

Good to know I already have a babysitter lined up though!!

Today is my birthday and I am just so happy. My husband is taking me out to dinner with our best friends who we are going to tell today and then we are going line dancing. Yes, you read that right. I am also a huge nerd and love to line dance.
My heart is so happy.

 

[Girly922]

^^ that's exactly how one of my best friends knows. My poker face sucks! Lol.

Happy birthday! Have a fantastic night!

 

[Tui]

Girly - my ms showed up before I was even 4 weeks this time! Sucks when you get it early but maybe we will be lucky and it disappear early too.
