Ohh no no he was measuring bigger..she was feeling around and said she could feel him moving around so he had to be further along..so she sent me for a ultrasound right away and he was a good week and half further along..I thought I knew the exact day we ovulated..feb 8 th but they are assuming I ovulated twice or something..
 
Isn't Vanessa Mia a violinist? Not sure on the spelling though and maybe she's British?

Loving the name suggestions. My dh has vetod my suggestion of Elliott but he has come up with Joesph, Dylan or Gabriel. I think Joseph is in the lead at the moment - is that biblical? ;)

My son's names sound like we're really patriotic as he's Harry William but they were the only two names we could agree on!! We joked that if this one was a girl she would be Camilla Kate. We are so tempted though to announce to the world that our new baby has been called Barry or Larry to see if people just think we are crazy (our son is Harry).

I am enjoying this stage of pregnancy. I hated the 1st trimester as had awful morning sickness but I now have energy and am not too big yet. I know how hard it gets later on so I'm really making this most of this stage.

I also have an anterior placenta and only really felt big movements around the 20 week mark. He always kicks so low down that my poor cervix is taking a battering!!

I had a great chat with my mw the other day about having a VBAC (vaginal birth after c section) and she's being really supportive. In the UK it is generally the hospital's preferred way to birth but I don't want all the things that come with it ie strapped up to monitors from the word go, canula in my hand from the word go (just incase) and having to go in to hospital as soon as my waters go or I start contracting. I want to be able to move and stay at home as long as possible. My MW is referring me to a specialist consultant at the hospital who is a big advocate of all this so I'm really chuffed. I so want a natural birth this time. The C Section was really no fuss and didn't really hurt but I want to experience natural child birth plus I don't want the long recovery time with a toddler to look after.

Is anyone else hoping for a VBAC? xx
 
V DAY! Woop!

Can't believe it's already 24 weeks! I say that in one breath and then wish I was 10 weeks ahead in another. I can't wait to meet our girl. We are now 99% sure she'll be Amara. It's hard to believe that we weren't sure my cervix would hold up six weeks ago and now we are viable and everything is fine. I suppose the scare made it just a bit more special. I don't like the worry, but it's nice to feel the accomplishment of 24 weeks:) I've decided that 38 weeks will be long enough. I can make that decision, right?

So many things are starting to happen and it's a bit more fun. We might start our registry this weekend, we've go our prenatal class sheduled for Sept 15, shower scheduled for Sept 22 and then we wait...

If I had one wish at the moment, I would want that second tri energy that people talk about. Hopefully our girl likes to sleep as much as we do. Again, I can make tha decision, right?
 
Nice bump wishful!!


Fishandchips I wish my doctor allowed vbacs but they do not :nope:
:nope:I hate it that I will never get to experience a vaginal birth (i hate calling it natural)

Does anyone else watch babystory on TLC? Ugh everytime they give birth I cry:cry: :haha: so silly

Good point about not calling it natural, it does make me feel liked a failed at something I should be able to have done. It does seem that Vbacs are really uncommon in the states.. such a shame as there has been so much research on it in recent years. :hugs:
 
OMG MommaBarry me too! As soon as the baby is born I cry!!! I cried like a baby with my first daughter...I have a feeling I will this time as well cause I am SO EMOTIONAL!!!
 
haha i sob when i see any baby being born on TV. you can tell if DH is in the other room he kind of gets emotional too but is trying t hold back.. but the other day he was like FYI i am going to lose it when baby is born haha

its a shame that the US doesn't allow more VBAC. my dr does but i am not sure how many do it. i also always right "natural" in quotes or just vaginal because its all friggen amazing to me! and i dont want anyone to thinks less of themselves if they need a C-section!
 
Happy V day Stephers! Thats just around the corner for me too. Although I can't imagine how hard it would be to see my little baby in the NICU it's a bit of a relief to know they might be able to save her if something tragic were to happen. I guess this means I will be having my last extra scan next week. I've been getting my cervix scanned every two weeks for awhile and they always give me an extra peek at her.
Mommabarry, I always cry too. I saw one program that was really disturbing. I asked the MW about it when I was in there and she scolded me for watching those. :shrug: can't help it!!!
Wishful, that's a wonderful bump!

I'm 5'3, but have really long legs and a really short torso. It already looks like a soccer ball; I'm guessing the entire month of October is going to be hilarious to those around me!:growlmad:
