@thealchemist, hopefully the anatomy scan will be better since I have to go to the actual Radiology dept for it. I will definitely give you guys the update. I hope you guys had a great Father's Day. I took a few hours off work to take my hubby to brunch. The food was whatever but he and my step-daughter loved it, so that's all that matters I bought him some cologne and didn't know he already had the same cologne which was still halfway full. Yikes!! He has several bottles of cologne that he and my son share and I sure don't look at them. Sooooo he got mad at me for not paying attention to the cologne he wears..lol.. MEN!!!

Oh I forgot it's done at the radiology department! You will have a better experience then. They have to go through each organ with you. No way they can just not communicate with you.

Omg, yes, MEN. Are you going to return and get a different one? I think I'd turn it around and be like "wow, okay. NO appreciation." Lol

Only 6 days until our scan!! Eek!!!

Sorry you had a bad experience Mama. Our first scan was the same, the lady just did her checks and barely spoke to us. I asked her lots of questions and she answered them briefly but it really freaked me out! Luckily the nuchal measurements turned out to be good, but I was worried for weeks!

Fingers crossed your scan next week is more communicative!

Had my OB appt today, US in 7 days!

HB 150, moved all around. The doctor had to keep moving the Doppler to get it. My NT/trisomy tests all can back with odds over 1:10000. My uterus is measuring perfectly and I've only gained 6.5 pounds. So far, so good! The next week is going to creep by!

I'm so excited to read all the gender reveals!!

I told him to return it and get the one he wants.

Another update: I think I may have felt the baby kick on the outside! I had my handing resting on my belly after a nap and the baby is sitting really high and thump! I felt a tap on my fingers!! Maybe I'm crazy, but you better believe that I'm going to keep my hand on my belly all the time now!!

Has anyone else (think) they felt the baby from the outside?!?

Also, I think I've "popped" a bit in the last two days still can't get these stupid photos to post right from my phone!

 

[luna_19]

Great news about your appointment!
I had mine yesterday too, heart rate was 141...I think my little bean is just lazy and relaxed all the time, heart rate is always in the 140s and haven't felt much of anything going on in there

Oh and I was down 1 pound from last visit so I've gained 11lbs now, not too bad since i've been eating everything in sight

Wow very organised. My DD has been changed to 15th November and have scan on Monday and we are finding out the sex.

I know I dont post much But I do come in and check on you lovely ladies.
I had an appointment last week and my Blood pressure is finally under control with med ( 126/75 down from 146/100 which is great) I have lost 17lbs since falling preggers but I am overweight and my MS has been horrible. Get to see bubba every docs appointment because he has a ultrasound machine in his room but he doesn't zoom in or anything so still no idea on gender.
Also blacked out the other night at my MILs while helping with dinner - not a great experience.
I have a huge belly now but I was bigger to begin with and my tummy muscles are still lose from previous pregnancy. 19 weeks this week, feels like time is flying.

Hoping you are all well. oh and PS I LOVE the belly shots.

That is great! You know the old wives tale says boy for heart rate <150! Not that I believe any of that. 11 pounds is great! I would have gained much more but I know I've lost a lot of muscle mass and gained fat, so it's evened out quite a bit.

 

[wantb502]

Bb1: thank goodness about your BP coming down! Hopefully it stays that way as long as its not getting too low (blacking out). What did your doctor say about that?!? I've been dizzy, but usually because I haven't eaten within 2 hours.

 

[Rockinmomtobe]

I'm getting ready to read all the stuff I've missed aaaawful stomach bug has had me down and out. But today's my 20 weeks! Happy 5 months to me! You ladies have been a lifesaver

Happy half way baked day! Congrats, what a great milestone!!! Sorry you've been feeling bad

 

[Rockinmomtobe]

I've updated the list with the correct due dates for missjenn and murmers.
Rockinmomtobe - could you copy and paste it into your very first post? Then it will always be easy to find/update?

Want - can't believe he said that to you!! What a twat! You are teeny tiny obviously in good shape. People think they can say whatever they want to Pregnant people!!!!

Whittnie - I'm overweight too and am getting pain in my hips. I really need to find the energy to exercise again so I can get a handle on my weight gain. But I'm finding it exhausting being pregnant and looking after a toddler!! Lol

OK, updated....and added bb1's due date as well! Now, you guys will probably just have to stay on top of me for when you find out the sex lol.

That is soooo exciting! Thats how my last appt was, with my little guy all over the place!

I WISH Id felt him move on the outisde. I cant even be sure hes moving on the inside yet....damn fat

AFM: Can you guys see my pictures when I post? Just wondering. I posted a picture with my last post about my 20 weeks.

Feeling MUUUUUCH better that I was a few days ago. Being sick and pregnant makes me nervous, the dr didnt want to see me, which was good, and I have my regular appt tonight with an ultrasound! YAY! Hopefully you guys can see the pics if I post them tonight.

Im having mixed emotions about tonight and trying to be positive. Even with my stomach bug and only eating toast and apples I managed to gain weight over the last two days, so Im not looking forward to the lecture from the doctor. But Im really trying to enjoy being pregnant and I want to look forward to these appointments and ultrasounds, not dread them Hopefully all will go well.

 

[wantb502]

Rockin: good luck with everything and remember though they say 25-35 pounds, I think most women gain closer to 50. I have an ending weight goal and trying not to focus on the weekly stuff because the baby is growing at such different rates. You'll be fine. I'm so sorry you've been feeling bad, sucks.

Please post pictures!

 

[luna_19]

I can see your picture

Don't worry about the weight, you're supposed to be gaining because baby is growing!
