[ajarvis]

Hi ladies! I'm really excited to be joining you all. I am due with baby #2 on October 17th. We've been trying for 15 months so I'm still in shock.

Hope it's ok to post.
I've been stalking this thread for a couple of weeks now and I'm keeping my fingers crossed so firmly that I get to join you in a few days.
Congratulations to all of you xxx

Welcome and congratulations ladies!!

Trr - Awesome beta!! Could it be twins??

I'm jealous you get a scan at 7 weeks!

I'll be 8 weeks 6 days on my first scan. It just seems so far away!

 

[krissie328]

I have no idea when they do scans here. I've moved since my last baby. I'm hoping to get one at my first appointment which will probably be around 8 weeks.

 

[ajarvis]

My first scan will be probably 12 weeks. Hoping hoping hoping I can hear the baby on doppler on March 10th at my first midwife appt.

Just found this website and I thought I'd share. It gives an update on baby's progression day by day (instead of by week like most). Pretty neat!

Trr - Awesome beta!

Krissie328 - I’ll add your due date down as the 17th. Congrats - glad you found us.

elliecain - Keeping our Fingers crossed you join us soon!

Unicornwoman - Awesome link!

I have my scan on Friday, I’ll be 6+3.

Ellie, I'll be looking for your post asking to officially join

Unicorn- twins run in the family but I'm not holding My breath. But trust that I scoured the Internet for hours trying to find out if it might be. Lol.

I get a scan at 7 weeks because I asked my doctor for it. I won't be seeing my midwife until almost 9 weeks. I had a previous mc so it's not completely unheard of and I probably could have begged for 2 scans but I figured I'll just be in panic if I get an early scan. I'm in Canada so maybe things are different. My doctor and I have a good relationship.

Lost - I posted my edd as well so you can update the first page. In case you didn't see it, it's oct 14
Thanks!

My first scan is booked in for next tbursday ill be 6w5d.

My fertility specalist has said because ive had a mc at 10 weeks he is going to scan me every week after next weeks scan! Will be amazing to see the development each week

 

[Unicornwoman]

Ok. I'm slightly freaking out because I woke up this morning and my boobs are much less sore. They really only hurt if I squeeze them. When I got my BFP, they absolutely ached! So worried since my other two BFP's both ended in mc!

 

[c beary83]

I'm the same - my boobies have not changed at all. With my last two losses they were sore and swollen. Now nothing!!!

I'm really scared there's nothing there.

 

[Smille24]

I have another scan 6w6d and another at 10 wks. If I weren't going to a specialist, I probably wouldn't get one until 8-10 wks.

 

[corgankidd]

Unicorn- mine keep doing the same thing! They will be super sore one minute and then I'll notice they aren't sore anymore. It keeps happening like half a day sore, half the day not. Some days they are sore all day, somedays not. I think our hormones fluctuate like crazy and so that contributes to the roller coaster booby pain. Disappearing symptoms is scary but I bet your boobs become sore again soon!

 

[krissie328]

I get very sore nipples that last until 10 weeks or so. They are already getting there!

I scheduled my first ob appointment for March 10th!! I can't believe how far away that is, the wait is going to kill me. I will be 8.5 weeks then based on ovulation (9 based on LMP).

Anyone know when you can use a home doppler to find the hb? I think I was able to after a lot of searching at 9 weeks with DS. But I cannot remember.

Hello ladies :wave: Can I join?

I just found out today that I am expecting our 2nd baby!! I already feel pregnant, even before I found out. I feel much more bloated too this time around. Anyway, judging by when I think I had my last period I think it would put my EDD around October. Will find out for sure at my first scan though!

I'm in Canada too and could get an early one if I wanted as well due to past losses. Just not sure if I want to.

Your body does adjust to the extra hormones eventually! One thing to keep in mind

Welcome and congrats!


So weird at parts of the day I'll be like well no symptoms. Then think back to the entire day and realize I've felt awful and exhausted most of the day ad that was my only moment of peace ha.

 

[Kiwiberry]

I know every pregnancy is different but with my first baby my symptoms would be worse at times than others. Sometimes not even noticeable at all. I know it won't help if I said try not to worry because lets face it, people could tell us that till their blue in the face and we would still worry .

 

[besty]

Hi all. Could I join you please? I'm expecting baby number 3 edd 10th oct. we already have two little girls

 

[Kiwiberry]

Are any of you going to be considered high risk? My last baby was preemie and I'm just wondering what I should expect?
