****November 2013 Rainbow Babies****

the theory is boys have a flat forehead n girls rounded x
 
Ginny great picture!!

Lavarl- how come the doc refused to give you a scan at 12weeks? When is your scan ?

Not til June 24. Apparently he doesn't believe in doing them earlier or more than once. I'm high risk and have a huge chance of having twins but he didn't change his mind. I think I'll be 19w by then.

so you haven't seen your LO yet Larval? Have you at least heard the heart beat??
 
Light bleeding still going on. Ughhhhh....not worried but just want it to stop now.
 
Got to see the baby yesterday! It was so exciting. LO was so active and jumping all over the place. Did my first tri screening checking for markers of Down syndrome. Everything looked great the tech said. She said she had a hard time keeping up with him/her. Heartbeat sounded great 167bmp. Ill post a couple pictures when I get them scanned on the computer!
 
Yeah Julie!!!!! I'm glad thigs are well


Ginny... how are you? I've been a bit worried as I've noticed you havent been on as much, I hope you are just busy. When is your next appointment now? Mine is on Tuesday.


Manda.... has the bleeding stopped? xo
 
I had an appointment with the physician today about my BP. All is good there and she wasn't that fussed about it. She does think though that I'm more than likely going to be induced, so just they can control when to stop the aspirin/clexane and the fact that they they don't want me going overdue.

I've just been having wobbles lately. I guess this was always going to be the hard part of the pregnancy, I just hope I can get through to feeling movements and then start feeling happier.

It;s hard coz DF doesn't really understand. I tried and use a plane crash analogy with him tonight. I said, imagine you were on a plane, didn't have any worries about it and then suddenly it crashed and you got badly hurt. But that's OK because everyone said it was a one off and the next time you catch a plane everything will be OK. So you catch a plane again and you're worried, but you get much further into your flight this time and start to relax and enjoy the flight. Then wham it crashes again! Next time you catch a plane no matter how many times someone says it's going to be OK you're never going to be able to believe them fully because they said it before.

Anyway, I think he got the message on how I'm feeling a little bit better. I think he just doesn't know what to say to me at the moment. He says be positive and I'm trying my hardest, but it's really hard and scarey :(
 
oh never actually answered your question! My next appointment with the obstetrician is on Thursday 16th, she's going to give me a scan then too, which I'm really looking forward to!
 
Hi all, sorry i havent been on for a couple of weeks. Hope everyone is doing well! Nothing much going on over here, I have a 3d scan tomorrow and hoping they might be able to give an indication of gender But mostly hoping this bean is healthy.
 
Angel, it seems to have stopped today. I'm off work, keeping an eye on it.

Looking forward to scan pics, Steph!
 
I woke up yesterday to a huge and terrifying gush of bright red blood. I panicked and rushed off to ER with OH and my Mom. After crying for hours, blood tests, and waiting for an ultrasound I finally saw my LO on the screen. It is measuring perfectly. I saw it wave, kick, roll over, and even saw the heartbeat. My Mom and OH were in the room and almost cried. Baby is super healthy and doing great.
Apparently I have a subchronic hemotoma and a 7cm benign fibroid on the top (outside) of my uterus.
The bleeding has come and gone since yesterday but it is brown now and not nearly as heavy. I am on strict bed rest for the next little while so I hope that helps. I want the baby to be safe.

Manda - glad the bleeding has stopped

Larval - that must have been very scarey! I think I can see the SCH on your top scan pic! Are they going to follow you up with more scans to see if it shrinks?
 
This is the week I will stop taking my prometrium I am very excited but nervous! This week I have cut my dose in half that way it doesn't cause bleeding from stopping it so far it's going good, I hope that it stays that way.

Hope everyone else is doing great I don't have another appointment until the 28th, to far away.

Very happy to hear that it was nothing too concerning and YAY you got to see your LO!!!!!! Congrats on your healthy bean!
 
One of my best friends had a subchorionic haematoma, and it kept causing her so much worry with bleeding. But eventually her body reabsorbed it, and it caused no more problems. Her now three month old girl was horn at home in water and is as perfect as can be. I wish for a lovely outcome for all of us, too.
 
Lavarl sorry to hear about the bleed but great news baby is healthy and you got to see him/her :)
SCH can be quite common, are you going back to have it checked again?

Manda- glad to hear your bleeding has stopped.

I have my next scan on Monday and I'm just a worrier, having had 3 mcs I find it difficult to relax, just keeping all crossed.
 
Has anyone had the feeling like they just did a bunch of sit ups? since I woke up I have felt this way... muscles stretching?

The doctor at ER didn't give much info and said to wait until my next prenatal which is not until the 27th. Given that my doctor is the slowest man alive and would probably not get me an ultrasound for weeks, my Mother decided to call and got me an appointment for next week. She is going to stress that I want a specialist and to have this scanned and watched until it is gone. I had to get her to do it because my doctor will not listen to me because in his mind I am still the 15 year old girl who went in for depression.

I will keep you all updated and let you know how my Wednesday appointment goes.
 
Hey ladies, been a while since I've checked in :) I keep my journal updated but have a hard time following other posts! Everything is going well! I stopped the progesterone suppositories on Friday and a lot of the spotting I was having has stopped, so I guess those irritated my cervix. :D
I had my 12 week appt yesterday and they were unable to find the heartbeat so they did a viability scan and all is great, hb of 157! It was moving its arms and legs, I'm so in love! I have my n/t scan tomorrow morning, I kept that because DH will be able to be there :) We are telling family Saturday and announcing on Sunday! I can't wait! People at work look at me funny, it's getting harder and harder to hide the bump! How are you all doing?
