NOVEMBER 2015 RAINBOWS. Please Join Us!

Does anyone here think they'll actually be able to relax in the second tri? I've had great scans, find bubs on the doppler and have symptoms most days and I'm still a wreck. I keep telling myself the odds are in my favour but my mind is a *******
 
I think I will with this one but i didn't with Max. I literally worried and was anxious my entire pregnancy :(
 
Cant believe they starred out the b word :haha:

I know I should relax. In my calm moments I completely know this is a healthy pregnancy. I'm actually seeing a CPN on Tuesday to see if I can get a grip on this. I don't want to land myself with pnd from the worrying like I did with my daughter
 
I'm hoping I will be able to relax for a few weeks but I have a feeling the 20-30 weeks will be a disaster. I'm feeling a little better already after multiple scans and having my doppler for reassurance when I need it.
I go for biweekly scans starting at week 14 I think.
I told my mom yesterday which was a weight lifted off my shoulders. Now I just have to tell my brand new boss and coworkers.
 
SweetV I can't imagine the torture of a second tri loss. I don't think I would ever relax. You're so brave x
 
I'm going to try can't guarantee I will but will try got holidays to take my mind off it then the run of appointments after my holidays fx my blood pressure chills out this time highly doubt it tho!!!!!
 
I'm trying to be more positive. No more spotting and no cramping plus never ending nausea is helping.
My only stress right now is our upcoming vacation. We're taking the kids to Florida to Universal Studios for the week. I'm just a little paranoid something will come up and I'll be away from my OB.
But on the plus side I have an ultrasound and blood test the day after I get back. Some new DNA test that checks for the trisomies and other birth defects plus gender.
So if all goes well than I'll get to know the baby's sex at 13 weeks! Crazy!!
Hope you're all feeling well and that your worries are fading.
 
GIY - Thank you! I haven't made it to the second tri since my loss and it was so unexpected, it just kind of happened and so quickly with no explanation. I'm not sure how brave I will be, I can imagine I'm going to be an anxious mess.

Lady - good luck. Enjoy your holidays and try to relax!

Love - Universal is a lot of fun. Hopefully your week is so busy you don't have time to worry. Are you having the Harmony blood test done? They recommended it for me but it's $1000 and I want to be able to spend that kind of money on baby things etc.

afm - I have a quick holiday planned this weekend as well. We are surprising the kids (my DS and step DD) a trip to a waterpark for 3 days. Then my NT scan when i get back.
 
I believe it is the harmony test. I had to get a letter from my insurance approving it before my OB would book it. Since I'm having that test they don't bother with the NT test as the other is more accurate. But my dr knows how anxious I am so she's giving me a reassurance scan 😊

And I LOVE water parks!! Enjoy!! I'll be sweating to death in the Florida heat! Thank goodness our hotel has a pool and lazy river!!
 
Sweet won't be on holiday until July we are going to Spain then back for two weeks then going to centre parks ( which is an activity holiday based in a forest) not that I will be doing many activities except the spa I might not be able to go into the saunas but I can enjoy the elemis treatments and pool with no kids. Well technically I suppose I will be smuggling one in but at 28 weeks I think they may notice. Is anyone else showing yet I am there is soooo no hiding it anymore lol.

I hope you enjoy your break at universal love I dream of getting there one day maybe when bump is a bit older

Enjoy the water parks sweet

I am hoping they will be able to tell me the gender in two weeks I will be 13 weeks then think this scan is classed as my official dating scan
 
Date night tonight daughter is at my mums and we are going to a Chinese restaurant that I know will make me 0 alcohol cocktails ok there is only so much fruit juice you can drink but it's the thought lol and lush Chinese food freshly made mmmmmmmm
 
Spain sounds lovely. So does a trip to the spa and non alcoholic cocktails!! I would love to know the gender ASAP. I love to shop the aisles and stare at all of the baby clothes.
 
Frozen strawberry daiquiri was lush!!!

I can't wait to be able to buy baby clothes not just fend myself off from buying yet xxxx
 
I love strawberry daquiris. I really have to stop myself from buying things. I'm so bad for that. All the stuff is just so cute!
 
Hey all :flower:

I had my booking in appointment today and got a scan it was only a quick one but saw my little baby :happydance: measuring 9 weeks and nice strong heart beat

I was so nervous as was not scheduled to have a scan but they fit me in I have to go back on the 12 for dating scan hubby will be with me then

but I am back to the GD clinic my fasting bloods are creeping up all ready so back to see endo in 2 weeks

hope everyone is feeling ok and doing well
 
I had some spotting yesterday. Still getting a HB on the Doppler but asked for a scan anyway to check there's no sinister and imminent reason for it
 
Congrats celticniamh. It's such a relief when you see things are progressing as they should be. Sorry to hear about your bloods. I'm glad you're being well looked after though :thumbup:

Sorry about the spotting GIY. Seeing blood is never nice in pregnancy. It's great that you've picked up the hb though :)

Afm, I'm still badly nauseous most days but at least now it's not all day every day like it was for the first few weeks. That horrible first tri fog has lifted and I feel semi normal again!! I listen to baby every single day which has been such a comfort. I didn't find max until 14 weeks exactly and I was a nervous wreck with him :(
 
Ergh, more spotting this morning and is redder. I could really do without this worry.
 
Sounds like a subchorionic bleed Hun. Was there a bleed site at your last scan?
 
No my last scan was perfect. Could one develop in the meantime?
