Debzi, So sorry for your loss, hun. I pray you get some answers and have a very healthy baby soon.

Charmer, So good to hear from you. I'm glad you're okay after surgery (well, as okay as is possible). Please keep us updated.

Hi ladies can I join you please? I'm moving over from the November thread as I had my scan today & turns out I'm actually 9 weeks instead of the 5 weeks I originally thought I was! Making my due date 30th October 2012! xx

Good luck tomorrow hope! Glad to see you're doing well. My symptoms did the same thing and then came back twice as bad. so they might just reappear, but hope the nausea will stay away.

Thanks Meaggers. I had pretty bad all day and night nausea from early on until 8 weeks where it started to ease off, I was getting a bit worried but I had other symptoms - exhaustion, bbs getting bigger, and I started showing really early! Those other symptoms kept me sane. I still have nausea now, usually from mid afternoon and throughout the evening and sometimes throughout the night - not enough to make me actually sick just that constant 'ugh' feeling you know? I am feeling grateful that the really bad nausea has not returned (yet!) and hope that it stays away!

What about you? What symptoms do you have? You must be so excited to be a few days off the 12 week mark!

 

[Hope4BFP]

Hi Camlet! Welcome and congrats!! How exciting to be a month further on than you thought! Yay!

How are you feeling? Do you have any symptoms?

 

[beth30]

Welcome Camlet!

Much love to the ladies that are going through a tough time.

I have my appt tomorrow with the regular obgyn nurse team to go over my history. Then next week with the doctor, and they may schedule me for another ultrasound. I hope so, I am getting anxious again. My friend just found out at 14 weeks that she is having a boy... I can't wait until it comes time for us to find out what we are all having.

Hi Camlet! Welcome and congrats!! How exciting to be a month further on than you thought! Yay!

How are you feeling? Do you have any symptoms?

Hi I'm feeling great thanks! I'm so happy & excited that my little one has already made it past the 7 week (thats when we lost our last one) mark without me even noticing! I can't wait to get to my 12 week scan now & just pray this little one hold on in there! yes I have quite a few symptoms I've got really bad morning sickness, sore boobs, peeing every 5 mins, super sensitive to smells & I seem to get really bloated quite quickly! I'm assuming all good signs as last time I had no symptoms at all! xx

For those of you that havent seen my journal, Meet our little one......

I have my first proper OB appt today. They'll probably do the physical exam, and then try to find the heartbeat on the Doppler. I'm pretty nervous that we're not going to find it. That's how we discovered the MMC last year. I'm going to ask them if they don't find it, if they'll send me for an u/s that day. If not, I don't want them to even try. I can't have that worry in my head for a week that something might be wrong.

I have my first appt today too! I was in the office at 9.5 weeks for bleeding and my Dr. tried to find the heart beat with the doppler but couldn't, he sent me for an U/S right away and we saw the baby dancing around right away. I would hope that your Dr would do the same!

 

[Tweak0605]

Good luck to you today!! I would hope my doc would give me an u/s today. Last time, he figured nothing was wrong since I have a tilted uterus, and just sent me for an u/s the next day. Actually, he said it wasn't urgent - the next day or 2-3 days later. I wanted the next day. I can't wait another day, I would need to have one today if they can't find it. Especially with my history, I don't know if I could wait a full day.

 

[Tweak0605]

I was worrying for nothing! She put the Doppler on my belly and found the heartbeat right away! Such an amazing amazing sound! We've never heard it with either of our previous pregnancies, and this was the 1st time hearing it with this one. I couldn't be happier right now!

 

[Meaggers]

Tweak I'm so glad things went well and they were able to find the heartbeat right away. Hearing the heartbeat for the first time is like love at first sight..well maybe love at first sound. lol

Welcome Camlet! It must have been amazing to find out you were further along than you thought and getting to skip a few weeks.

Rachel your scan is beautiful! Congrats on 12 weeks today!!

AFM: I hit the 12 week mark today as well and couldn't be happier. It feels like my birthday or something haha. My scan isn't until 13 weeks and it couldn't get here soon enough. As for my symptoms right now, my boobs seem to hurt a little more, the gas and constipation are awful (sorry if tmi), and the nausea is still there but not as bad. I find I'm hungry every hour and am finally getting up to pee in the middle of the night several times. The heartburn is getting worse as well. Isn't it funny how we love each and every symptom even though sometimes they're not so fun? I find myself being like "yay! another symptom!" lol Oh also my energy level is getting a little better during the day and then by night time I'm really exhausted, but I haven't been taking naps really.
Something else that's really cool is when I use my doppler (I'm a doppler addict I think) I hear a lot of fetal movement. I can't wait until I can feel it in several weeks.

I hope everyone is doing well. Anyone interested in starting to post our mini bump pics?

 

[Tweak0605]

Thanks Meag! It's definitely love at first sound! I was in love when I saw Peanut moving around on the u/s screen a few weeks ago, and now more in love with him/her after hearing that HB!

Happy 12 weeks!! I'm getting up once in the night to pee. I got up last night, and barely remember it I was half asleep. I'm feeling pretty good - not as tired, not as sick or gagging as much. Just really hungry!

I'll post my mini-bump/bloat pic! Can't see much - just shows you how much chub I have!

11 weeks!
