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

[Flueky88]

Dobby I know, I can't wait for parents to see the announcement photo of lil jedi

Leson, nope I was looking. It was not a "medical" ultrasound as Dr wasn't reviewing. I assume that if anything was wrong the tech would talk with Dr though. I mean that's negligence since it occured at MD office. I think the measurement was on my dating scan though, but MD reviewed it with me afterwards.

 

[lesondemavie]

Ah yea...I'm going to miss always having my doctor or one of her PAs do the scans and talk me through it as it happens. Graduation will be a bit bittersweet.

 

[Thejoie]

Lots of updates and new scans!! It's so awesome to see everyone doing well.
It seems like I've been doing pretty well with my symptoms. Nausea is intermittent now. Food aversions aren't as restrictive. Smells are weird but not always detrimental. I've been able to work out 4 days this week because of feeling better so that's always good.

It's gonna be a crummy snowy weekend and I have to work. Ugh. I have one day next week to finish my Christmas shopping. I waited TOO long- usually I love Christmas but this pregnancy thing has been a limiting favor.

 

[PrettyInInk42]

My scan from a few days ago. It's not a great pic, but the heart rate was 157 bmp.

 

[Lunabelle]

Congrats on the scan pretty!

 

[Betty.Rubble]

Great scans ladies.

11 weeks today and the nausea has reduced a lot. Scan and consultant appt in 3 days.

Hope you're all well x

Anyone else having horribly itchy legs?!?

I literally am moisturizing 3 times a day. I exfoliate in the morning, then put on my in shower lotion- and more lotion AFTER and I was still itchy yesterday. Today I busted out my belly oil and put that on my legs after my shower and layered it with my Cerave cream. So far so good but wow I have been going nuts with it!!!

 

[Aphy]

Joie,I had the itchy legs for about 2 weeks (think it was week 4.5-6.5) it was the worst! Nothing really helped. It eventually faded away by itself so hope that's the case with you too

My nausea has been giving me good days and bad days. Yesterday was a good day,today not so much...ugh!

 

[lesondemavie]

Glad to hear everyone's nausea is starting to change/ease. Mine is definitely either easing or at a minimum changing, and it has me worried after all I've been through. I still have moments when I feel like I could throw up, and brushing teeth still triggers vomiting/dry heaving, but my nausea feels different. It's still there, but it feels more like hunger. It's not as tough to handle, and I don't need to take a bite as often to keep it from getting worse. I was feeling better and so hungry yesterday that I decided to try one of my favorite paninis again and I still gagged on it, so the aversions are still strong. Based on how baby was measuring on Tuesday, I should be measuring 11 weeks now too. Can't wait to see how baby is doing again in three days. I need the reassurance. I finally cracked and bought a Doppler, but it won't be here until Tuesday. I keep telling myself that this is normal and I still have slightly sore boobs and some nausea so all should be well...but nothing beats seeing the baby. I'm getting more nervous now bc more people know/will know soon. DH told his boss to explain why he was heading home early, and one of my clients' parents guessed yesterday. She said I was glowing, and also that my "face is filling in more" is that a way of telling me I'm getting fat? Going to hold off and tell my parents on Tuesday after the ultrasound. Their grandparent ornament should be here on Monday.

 

[DobbyForever]

Joie I have not but I remember some on the tri 1 board did. Unless that was you my memory sucks. Sorry about that. I'm lucky I am still at the age where Christmas means go to mom's and her school let out Thursday. But mine we work until 12/22! I feel so bad for my mom coworker's trying to work and set up Christmas. My family almost bought a tree without me!!!!

Pretty was it abdominal? Either way I'm surprised they didn't zoom in more to give you more details. But I think your little peanut is still super cute!

Betty yay for less nausea! Congrats on the 11 week mark! Can't wait for your update in a few days!

Aphy I am so sorry . Hope the good days outnumber the bad soon

Afm minor car accident yesterday (post in tri 1 about it). I also booked my panorama test for $450 on 1/4, so I should have results by 1/13 if beanie is healthy and if I'm team blue or pink . Migraine has been gone for days and praying they do not come back

 

[Catalyst]

Do we are 12 weeks today
Still feel nausea and such... maby tad less. The cold is better too, still habe to blow my nose now and then hehe
Scan in 3 days!!! Cant wait! If all goes well we will tell our boys that same day

 

[Gagrlinpitt]

Ladies.. Do I have a story for you..
So to give a little back story, one of my best friends has two little girls. She and her husband have been very fortunate that both their daughters were Conceived on the first try. She was pretty adamit that she wasn't ready to do anything permanent yet but she didn't think she wanted a third but wasnt sure.

Now fast forward to Last weekend, we were at a friend's sons birthday party and when I looked over at her I got this intense feeling she was pregnant and texted my husband that. Well last night I was over her house and I told her about that.... Well wouldn't you know she found out the day before that birthday party she is pregnant with number three... And she's been on the pill. So now three of the four of us(or close group of friends) are pregnant at the same time.. And we are all due within a few months apart.
(One due April, I'm due July, and now she's due August or September)

I am SO excited that my child will have such close friends!!!

 

[Weebles]

That's wonderful gagrl! I'm jealous tbh! My husband made me wait so long to have kids all of our friends are either done having them or don't want them at all.

I still have a horrible cold, I'm just miserable. I wish I could take something for it.

 

[Catalyst]

I know that feeling weebles, just geting over a cold.

I haf my both sons similar time as my SIL... but she is finished and her man has had a vasectomy (right word?).
Now I live in a different town and know few ppl.

 

[Thejoie]

I'll look at the forum- that wasn't me Dobby haha. I'm sorry about your accident- I'm glad you're okay!

Yay for all the ladies who are feeling better. My nausea has definitely improved, though it never really got bad. My food aversions are still here but the cravings have gotten more intense. Baby is ALL about fruit right now! I get really bloated and full fast though. It isn't fun to eat big meals. My eyes are definitely bigger than my stomach right now.

I got my Doppler but want to wait till 9 weeks to start torturing myself trying to find the heartbeat... I did clinical in OB and had to find a lot of heartbeats so I'm hoping that training helps

 

[Girly922]

I seem to be going backwards and forwards with my nausea, whoever named it morning sickness was wrong! Lol. It seems to start late afternoon/evening and last until I'm asleep that night. It is not helping me fall asleep that's for sure!

I'm still craving savoury and meat products. Today we went out for a fry up for breakfast that was seriously soo good!

I've got a Doppler joie, but I won't even try yet as I've got a retroverted uterus so doubt I'd find it yet. I can't remember how far along I was before I found the HB with DD.

 

[lesondemavie]

I spoke too soon. I started off yesterday vomiting the second I got up and then I just felt awful the rest of the day. I spent all day on the couch watching horror movies and snacking on cheerios. I couldn't eat most of lunch, but the baked potato went down ok. Dinner felt so good: pineapple fried rice. I woke up this morning feeling sick and hungry. Hopefully today is a better day.

 

[baseball_mom]

I thought I was getting off easy with the MS but I think it wasn't too bad because I wasn't as far along as I thought. The last couple of nights have been killer. It kicks in around 9pm and lasts a couple hours making it hard for me to go to sleep at night. Ugh. I just try to lay down and breathe through it until I can fall asleep.

 

[youngmamttc]

My 12 week scan is tomorrow eeek! Even though I've already had 3 scans so far I'm sooo excited!

 

[Aphy]

Good luck at your scan youngmam!
