*October Bumpkins*2014* 43 Babies Born!

[rbourre]

Hi ladies. I just wanted to briefly post that I would also like to join. I am 7 +0 today, so I am due oct. 19. My first scan isnt until march 11. This seems like such a great site filled with really knowledgable people!

I am also due October 19. My first ultrasound isn't until April 7 so I'm jealous. I wish I could have one sooner than 12 weeks.

I don't really feel pregnant either other than peeing more and if I don't eat when I'm hungry I feel a little sick. I didn't feel pregnant with my daughter at all, I didn't even know I was pregnant with her until 22 weeks. I keep thinking that for some reason the tests and blood work were all wrong....which obviously I know is not true. I just want an ultrasound so I can see the baby and really know there is a baby in there.

Yay for a blueberry!

I still haven't gotten ms so I'm hoping I may skip it all together.

Holy lower back and hip pain. I kept waking up last night because my lower back was killing me. Finally I put a pillow in between my legs and that seemed to help. Anyone else have this?

Thanks ladies that makes me feel better. Pregnancy is a roller coaster of emotions that's for sure. I felt pretty good with DD I just remember being nauseous here and there.
I woke up to thicker yellowish (thought it had a brown color to it) discharge when I wiped. I have been having dull cramps all morning. I kind of this this maybe a uti or bladder infection. I had one in the first Tri with DD. I know they aren't good to have so I'm going to see how I feel this afternoon and call my dr f I don't feel better.

Geralyn-- My nausea only started at the end of last week. I sleep with a pillow between my knees and it helps a lot with backache. Especially if you have sciatica issues at all.

I am a blueberry today! Scan tomorrow! so excited and nervous!

Happy 7 weeks!!!! Yay for a blueberry!

Hi jmandrews. I've been having that ever since 8 weeks and I'm 10 weeks 2moro, still getting it. I spoke to my MW about it and she said as long it doesnt smell or make you itchy its perfectly normal. Apparently its the rise in our hormone levels which causes it. some ladies have it through out the whole of their pregnancy, sometimes is settles by 12 weeks and some dont get it at all!

Booked in for a 10week scan 2moro.. So excited and a little nervous!!! Finally I will get a scan picture!

Hi ladies, hope you are all doing well. I have my first scan today and am nervous!

I have a scan today too. This will be my 5th scan and I'm hoping to hear the heartbeat today as we have only seen the flicker so far no sound and I couldn't find it on the Doppler either so I'm getting excited. 2 hours and 15 minute yet to wait lol

 

[babyfeva]

Can't wait for you to hear your babys heartbeat Sprite! Mines in 2 hours!!

 

[Krippy]

Good luck on all the scans today! Mine is tomorrow afternoon!

 

[SoBlessedMama]

FXd for all the scans today!! Can't wait to hear great updates! : )

Mine is Friday, and I really hope to hear the heartbeat and see good growth. (I will be 7 weeks exactly.)

I usually don't have back issues. I may have to get that pregnancy pillow now...I was going to wait until I had a bit more of a bump but hopefully it will help with my back issues.

Yay for all that scans! Good luck! I decided to have my sister do one early this sat since our first scan isn't until March 18 and it seems like forever to wait

 

[cntrygrl]

My last scan with the Specialist is Thursday morning then I graduate to an OBGYN. Yay!!!

 

[Yo_Yo]

Good luck all the ladies having scans soon!

I loved my scan...if I had one of those ultrasound machines, I'd be constantly watching my baby-I'd never move lol!

jmandrews, want to trade? First thing I eat and drink every morning gets puked back up! Then I have nausea all day and it peaks at night and I don't stop throwing up! It's fun times

I thought I had a uti/bladder infection too, I have a lot of pressure in my abdomen when I go pee, it hurts and my urine always smells strong and is really cloudy. I went to the doctor though and they didn't find anything wrong. I was having bad flank pain on the right side too so I was worried it went to my kidneys, but that has gone away and I'm thinking it was just a pulled muscle from vomiting all the time. Still not sure why I'm having the other symptoms though!

Got my Doppler today! I watched a YouTube video to make sure I use it right then I tried it but I couldn't find the HB. Probably too early since baby is all tucked in. I can't wait to try again. anyone with a Doppler found the HB yet?

I've found it quite easy last couple of days, I've worked out to do it on a full bladder do it pushes the uterus up x

Have a full bladder, and the only way I can find it is if I lean against the bed or a chair. I can't find it if I lay down. Stay right at the pubic bone, start in the middle and angle it up and down slowly. Fxd for you!

Just bought a Doppler on Amazon.

I can't stand these gaps between scans worrying. Hope of works so soon.

JmAndrews-it's still early, so will be harder to find on a doppler, but with patience and a bit of time, you will find it.

Took me ages with dd2!
