[babyhopes2323]

managed to get it up straight this time not sideways, but still rather small, best way would be avatar no choice...

 

[babyhopes2323]

lol bad luck, ill have to go back to home and get my normal avatar sorted, you guys can still click on the image and get a view hopefully..


yay 11 weeks today !!!! one more week to go to get to the 12 week mark, but 2 weeks more for the scan !

 

[MummyCat]

Huge congrats flying.... your bubby is BEAUTIFUL

Preethi, happy 11 weeks and thanks for sharing your pic... you can def see head, arms and legs

 

[flyingduster]

Ooooo Preethi, yay for your scan pic too!!! I know what the problem with the pic is, it's because it has scanned the entire A4 sized page and uploaded that, if you can crop the pic down to JUST the scan pic it'd work... otherwise you can always email me the full pic that was scanned and I'll get it up for you if you like?

 

[Huggles]

Yay for your scan Flying! Those pics are amazing! I especially love the two profile pics. Such a definite baby!

And babyhopes - although it's small and fuzzy, i can still see a definite baby in your scan pic too! Especially when you got it uploaded the right way round LoL

Only 5 more sleeps until i get mine! (although mine will still just be a blob - but at least i'll be able to (hopefully) see a heartbeat)

Preethi, another way to share images here is to upload the image to a site like photobucket or imageshack and then copy the link and paste it between [ /IMG] tags. As Flying mentioned, crop the picture down to just the scan and it ought to help.

But from what I can see it's not terribly blurry - and there's definitely a baby in there!

Flying, your pics are amazing - bummer you forgot to record video though. I can't wait for my turn!

 

[babyhopes2323]

I HAVE A BABY TOOOOOOOOOO!!!!! Ok, I'm a dimwit and was totally caught up in it all and forgot to record it... but I go them to print of pics anyway. I'm GUTTED I forgot to get the moving pics, cos it was amazing to watch it bounce around like a nutter, up and down and rolling over, arms waving about and kicking out, arching it's back and then sliding back down! haha!

But it was all AMAZING! I've never ever had a scan for anything in my life, I've never been to one in real life either, and with having had no real confirmation that I'm pregnant for some time now; I was totally emotional seeing bub bouncing around so so much, and had tears rolling down my face the entire time! lol.

Anyway! The pics!

and a 3D pic, looking down from above, with the hands back up at it's face again. lol

Preethi its your BABY!!!!! awww so amazing to finally see! when you get your next scan photo I will give you my email and I might be able to sharpen it a bit and make it larger. and I love the avatar, even though its small its nice to see a new one of you both!

Congrats on your scan flying!

Baby- thats a good scan at 10 weeks. Is your avatar recent? Is it snowy there?

I am not even out of bed yet and on my phone but wanted to congratulate the scans!

 

[babyhopes2323]

ny, it is soooooooooo not snowing here.. we are in a desert.. its dubai.. and its 37 degrees celsius and im roasting.. that pic was on the morning of our wedding at about 5:30am in york england.. dec 2009.. it was heavily snowing and we were lucky because our wedding pics were all in the snow.. it was nice..

yep, id like for someone to sharpen my pics and do it correctly, though i think we'll wait for the 12 + 6 one this time !

 

[sarahincanada]

preethi your baby is the size of a lime!! thats big! yayyyyy cant wait for the baby bump photos, who will be first? you were mentioning the good probability after a d&c.....I think for some reason after a MC so many women get a bfp but I think thats because the body was pregnant and some how it makes it easier. So not sure if my op would really give me any extra help and my FS didnt say anything about it. Plus we really did have only 2 very sad BD attempts that were basically an insert and deposit!!!! not the most romantic memory if we conceived

I still have sore nipples and lots of white snotty cm. temp was a bit lower today. so nothing interesting but Im excited that in 5 days I will be put out of my misery and know either way! if I get my period I will totally fine and be excited about my first proper cycle post-op and I want to attempt BDing every other day from CD10 till about CD25. that should cover all bases!! Dew I am right behind you!!

 

[Dew]

Thank you Dew... I can only imagine your feelings, I remember that thought of how amazing it must be and the sorta happy feelings mixed with jealousy mixed with amazement etc... It IS amazing, I'm *still* crying remembering it bouncing around. And you WILL have that soon too!!!!!!

Thanks Flying!

Amazing how it all starts with a BFP (that extra line on our tests) and transforms into a brand new life inside us....I know it's a painful journey but it's also the greatest blessing of all....Men might feel left out at times, that's why probably it takes them more time to bond with the new baby.

I love how you ladies are at various stages of pregnancies, it's lovely to feel your excitement accompanied by worries about other things such as finances, housing etc. Just makes me visualize life in a big picture where I can see things beyond me. And realize what I have to wish for is not just a smiley on a digital but a world full of smiles for a new life and neither of these come easy

Have a beautiful day you all!

 

[Dew]

Preethi, I can see you (in avatar pic) as well as your baby (in the scan pic) Scan picture might be small but we all can see the little one in there....congrats once again!

I don't see snow in your picture that Sarah was asking about?

 

[nypage1981]

Sorry to say Dew, but no, it doesnt come easily But we are women, and we do not quit. Same for when you are pregnant, or when you have your baby. We will never quit fighting for our children. Its the way we are and that makes me proud! So keep on truckin and eventually your bodie's will have nothing else to do but to make a baby.

Remember all that talk about chips yesterday, well I am not even Pg but inspired by you guys, last night I finished a bagful of my favorite (totally unhealthy) Jalapeneos flavored kettle cooked chips. God bless junk food

 

[nypage1981]

Yea, in bed last night I found a new love for doritos. But they are pizza flavored. And right now, that sounds sooooo gross. Can't believe I stuffed my face with those!

 

[Dew]

Well said NY! I am proud too-of all the women in the world....my TTC journey has made me understand the power as well as pain of women.

Warning to all: OK I am gonna mention something sad so don't read beyond this if you don't want to....

I lost my baby on my birthday earlier this year...the same day my mom had given birth to me and I was losing mine.....this thought made me realize that my birthday can not be more important to anyone but my mom...sadly, it took me 35 years and one loss to understand that. I will never look at my birthday the same way ever again.
Thanks for reading.

 

[nypage1981]

Dew- That proves that life's got a funny way of showing you things, huh. But it is true, on my daughter's birthday I cry. And its happy crying but I just sob and sob. Its mainly because of the importance of that day to me. For her, its fun, and full of gifts and child things. But to me, its such a special day and I can always remember that day and what it really meant. She won't know until she becomes a mother, but our children's birthdays are the most important days in our lives.

 

[sarahincanada]

I had a packet of sour cream and onion ruffles last night! it is babyhopes and ny's fault!

Dew: that is so sad and it breaks my heart that the timing was so unfair. but one day in the future, when you get a happy birthday card from your children, it will be a happy day again I promise you that.

I have not experienced a MC to know how that feels, but I lost my dad 8 years ago on Dec 22, and for me Christmas will never be the same. I was always a Daddies girl, we had a bond that was very strong. My mum said that I was born and Dad and I looked at eachother and that was that. I flew home to England for Xmas, with his presents in my case, and my brother in law met me and my mum was in the car. She was crying when I saw her but she always cries when I arrive and leave. The words she next said would forever change my life: We've lost Dad. Ive never been the same since, its not something I talk about much as I can cry and cry just thinking about it.

But there was a happy side too. 6 months before I had met my now husband. He flew over for the funeral and poor guy had to meet all my family at the worst time and he was only 21! He came to the visitation and at the end he asked if he could talk to my dad alone. He asked my dad for my hand in marriage. I love that my husband was able to see my dad, and in the same year I lost the love of my life and met the love of my life.

So sorry to blurt out all this sad stuff! but we all have had losses and joys in our lives who make us who we are. I have had a few odd things happen to me to make me realize that dad is still there guiding me through life. Dew even though your MC doesnt make sense, perhaps it was meant to happen as your future children were not ready to be born yet.

I didnt have my dad phyiscally with me when I married, and it upsets me he wont be physically with me when I give birth. I will take a photo of him and a lock of his hair with me to the hospital. I know he is watching every step of my life. Thanks for listening to me too!
