*October Bumpkins*2014* 43 Babies Born!

@jmandrews oh yeah, I have the worst insomnia, and now my sleep schedule is very messed up. I don't fall asleep now until around 7AM and wake up around 3 PM. I lay down around 1-2 AM and just sit there trying really hard to fall asleep for hours. It's awful. A lot of times I will fall asleep but wake up an hour later and feel totally refreshed, I don't get it!

I hope this doesn't last much longer. It's horrible! I will fall asleep and wake up a couple hours later and not be able to go back to sleep for hours. Then I finally fall back to sleep and wake up a few more times due to vivid dreams. Grrrr it's so frustrating. Especially when my 18 month old wants to play all day. Today she wouldn't take a nap. Plus DH is out of town until Thursday for work. I just want to cry :cry:
 
Just had my first scan! They've dated me at 6 weeks 5 days but she said 'cause it's still really early on it's hard to date it accurately as it's still so tiny so I'm just gonna keep going off my LMP..

Went in for a scan 'cause I had some bleeding before :| Was really worried all day. Went to the hospital but all they could do was take a blood test and book me in for a scan on Thursday. I obviously couldn't cope with waiting 2 days to check up on my bean so I went for a private scan tonight! They said it's all going fine and they can't explain the bleeding.. just one of those things I s'pose..

Here he is anyway!

Anyone else get MS in afternoon? Ugh I'm miserable right now
 
I've had bad insomnia too. It's starting to get better after over a week of hardly sleeping. No sickness yet, but I had a bit of an upset stomach last night after dinner. It only lasted about 15 minutes.
 
Just got back from buying some maternity clothes :) It's becoming more real now! So excited!

Yay! I have a few pieces of maternity clothes from when I was pregnant last year and I do wear those but I will be waiting until I can't wait anymore to get any others.

I'm too scared to buy maternity clothes incase something goes wrong .... But can't fit in my normal clothes for much longer :haha:

I am in the same boat! Since this is not my first pregnancy I am showing a bit already and won't be able to wear my clothes much longer. May have to give in and get some clothes soon...especially pants. Shirts are easier this early in.

Just back from ultrasound. Saw a gestational sack and a tiny fetal pole :). I think that's normal for just 5 weeks

Tho still no explanation for the ATM pain. At least little nugget is okay.

Glad you were able to get checked out and the baby is doing good. I can imagine being on pins and needles waiting for the next US as well. Will pray for you and your nugget that everything will work out just fine, as I am sure it will. :hugs:

Baby measures at 7w1d... x

Yayy! Glad your US went well!


Well.. Had my scan.

Baby measured exactly on track (give or take a day, in some positions it was 8+1, others 8+0) and had a strong heart rate of 162! :happydance: :cloud9:

What a great scan! Glad everything went well!

DH and I had sex once so far. I was a little nervous but I know it's safe to. No bleeding but I know it is normal if you do. I am way more horny while I'm preggo haha sorry tmi. I have crazy sex dreams with DH all the time.

My dreams lately have been scary so I haven't been sleeping well. I didn't sleep much at all last night. This insomnia is bad with this pregnancy. Anyone else having the same problem?

I find that sex just doesn't feel right anymore and I have lost my sex drive completely. I couldn't get enough while we were TTC (not just because of the baby making, just in general) and now I could care less. It sucks. I feel bad for poor OH. :( This has to be hard on him. :haha:


Whew finally all caught up. Sorry I've been out of touch with every one. It's been a rough few days. My aunt was given 12 hours to live on Sunday and passed away at 1:20am yesterday. All week last week and the weekend has been a waiting game and we've all been waiting. She was a strong lady and had a valiant battle with cancer but is now hanging out in Heaven with her dad (my grandfather). It's hard to go through and I am trying to not stress out too much because it's not good for baby.

Today is 7 weeks for me. Feeling pretty good and so far haven't had anything happen that would cause concern. I have my first prenatal appointment a week from today and will hopefully be scheduled for a US. Will keep you all updated.

PS -- Sorry this post ran a little long.
 
Has anyone done the gender predictors you can find on Ebay and what not? I did the intelligender last time and it was right :) Although I really wanted it to be a girl. This time both test said girl :)

This is a link to my blog where I posted the review of the first test

Your sex drive will come back. Mine did I'm the 2nd Tri with my DD. :)

I am so sorry that your aunt passed away :( cancer is awful. I'm glad she is a peace now in heaven. I'll keep you and your family in my prayers.

Yay for another beautiful scan! I love seeing all of these. :) glad you and baby are healthy. My best friend was having light bleeding throughout this pregnancy. She and baby are perfectly healthy at 32 weeks now. Try not to stress about it. Hope that makes you feel better. She was also worried. Dr said her cervix is probably just more vascular.

I sure hope so! I hear the second tri is the best as you have more energy and everything. I think having more energy alone will help with the sex. :haha: I am just so exhausted all the time!

Haha you are def right about that! I can't wait for the 2nd Tri! My DD is so busy busy busy! I don't even know how I'm functioning anymore.
 
I had my first appointment today! Just confirmed pregnancy by a urine test and the normal vitals. I have to wait 3 weeks for an ultrasound and she wouldn't let me get hCG blood drawn :( That stresses me out more!! Seeing my hCG levels is a comfort. I'm 5+4 according to my lmp.
 
Laelani, I'm sorry to hear about your aunt. It can't be easy to lose someone, especially when you're pregnant. :hugs:
 
I went in for my ultrasound on monday and it went great! I have one lovely little bean and we even got to see the tiny flutter of the hearbeat. My oldest dd was absolutely amazed. She asks me all the time how big the baby is.
When I went in for the scan, I drank all that water like you're supposed to. As soon as she started the scan, she says "oh, you have a retroverted uterus so we'll have to let you pee and then do a transvaginal". I was like what the heck is a retroverted uterus! And I just drank all that water for nothing!! Anyone have experience with a retroverted uterus? I didn't have one with my girls.
