Happy 9 weeks cntrygirl, happy 11 weeks yo_yo. I love hearing about milestones. Yay!!

So glad to hear from you jm, I'm glad you were able to go naturally and you are such a strong person. Good luck on your ttc journey.

Afm, I've had a burst of energy today not really sure what is going on. It's weird to go from drop down tired to actually wanting to do things. Leaving for my hematologist appt in 30 minutes I'm so excited to tell her I'm pregnant and see what my iron levels are. Hopefully they're good with all this energy I've got.

Thanks cntrygirl - I think this should show my scan. Happy 9 weeks by the way!

The scan is a bit blurred, it was much clearer on the screen but baby was wriggling around!

Had a DR appointment today. We got to hear the heartbeat for the first time

It was 162! Next week we will finally have photos!

That's so exciting! I'm hoping to hear the heartbeat next tues at our appt. with the midwife...is 8 weeks too early to hear? We saw it last weekend at 6w4d...so I'm hoping we'll hear it this time

Congrats starbrites!

Thanks Geralyn... My scan today was at 9 weeks and we only saw the heartbeat. I'm not sure if I could have heard it with better technology or whether it was too soon.

Tried laying on my stomach last night and it is getting uncomfortable, felt weird, like I had something between me and the bed.. Oh wait, its called my uterus. Lol, joy! Time to figure out a new sleeping position!

I feel the same way. I can't get comfortable at night and I have been having so much trouble sleeping because of it.

Yup, and then my husband can't fall asleep because I can't stop tossing and turning!

Yes it is possible! Our first time trying was our 7 week appointment but she said she wasn't very good at finding it at 7 weeks, lol. Found it pretty fast today though!

We had a transvaginal us at 9+2 and she let use hear it then but we were having weekly scans prior to that and they wouldn't let us hear it only showed us on the screen and measured it with the waved thing before then they had said it wasn't safe to hear it that early.

 

[newlywed2013]

well, I am Facebook official! Feels even more real!

I really need to come on here more often. It takes me at least an hour to catch up with everyone!
I stopped getting ms (or all day nausea) a week ago and it gave a bit of a scare. I had ms up until the second trimester with both of my girls. This time, its already gone and I have no other major symptoms to rely on that everything is fine. I keep telling myself that I had a great scan at 6+3weeks and even got to see the heartbeat, but its hard convincing yourself. I think I might have felt a flutter today. Super early! The earliest I felt it last time was 11 weeks, but I guess thats only a week away!! I really hope that's baby telling me they're ok in there. I had my first prenatal appt on monday. Everything seemed to go well. It felt a bit different seeing a totally new doctor, but she was really nice and informative. I was hoping she would try to listen for the heartbeat, but she said the dopplers they have aren't that sensitive so we'd have to wait until next time. Also, I have a retroverted uterus so it might be even harder to get to. I also got my prenatal blood workup package. Apparently, they now do screening tests for all pregnant women. The doctor said it was procedure for all pregnancies, but I know I didn't get it with my last two. It just gave me a little bit of a scare because she started going on about what would happen if anything came back positive. Everything would be our decision like if we wanted to do further testing, leave it be, or well I don't want to think about anything else. It just scared me. I really hope it all comes back normal.

Anyways, I hope you're all doing well and I'll try to log on tomorrow to keep up with all you chatty ladies!!

It's 3 am here and I am awake eating a bowl of mini wheats. I woke up to pee about half an hour ago and couldn't fall back asleep because I was so hungry.

So thought I was doing a good job flushing out this uti but been up several times overnight in agony after going to loo and my bladder feels like it's hypersensitive!! I even got up and had more water with bicarbonate soda (vom) and it's not helped this time thinking it's time to go to antibiotics before it gets any worse!

Also I heard hb at early scan 7+4

 

[CharlieKeys]

Definitely get some antibiotics Hun hope it goes soon!

Ended up in ER last night. Suffered a terrible stomach flu all day and was severely dehydrated, I had to be IVed for 8 hours. Finally feeling better but worried because dr didn't even check baby I've never been so sick in my entire life!!
