ok so who wants to get pregnant in 2011? (closed group)

Baby- the doppler will help I swear. Just be patient with it. My first time took us like 45 minutes to find baby. And even sometimes it takes a long time, sometimes its quick. All depends. You have to be able to put it down and come back to it later if you dont find it for 15 or so minutes. Sometimes it is just hard to find and that's all there is to it !

i ordered a sonoline b doppler and have heard great reviews on it.

I read some great reviews on that one. You will have to tell us how you like it. I am still early to be getting a doppler but have looked into it some.

 

[nypage1981]

Yes, let us know, I may get that one instead. I like my Hi bebe one, but it picks up EVERYTHING. So, idk. Lemme know if that one does too.

12 weeks toooodddaaaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyy

I'm excited, can you tell!?? hahahahahaha!

Sarah, first tri *technically* ends at 13w 3d (well, 1/3 of 40 weeks is 13.3, so I'm just saying three days, cos 2.3 days is just silly. lol!) which for me will be 11th April, soooooo 12th April (my time) will be into the second trimester! Still a couple of weeks away but I don't care. I'M AT 12!!

and now I don't have time to check in with everyone, but;
Yay on a doppler baby! Let us know how it goes!
Welcome Dew [again! but welcome to actually joining in too! We've had a few come post once and then not come back to us... lol!]
And FX for everyone else that all is going well!!!

I'm off to pack incase I don't have time to come home before heading up North. I finished the other booties yesterday but forgot to bring it home to sew up, so will do that today (and probably start another pair!) and will post pics when I'm home on sunday night or monday. to all cos I'm in a very happy mood today! lol

 

[Dew]

Flyingduster: I can understand and see your excitement as they say second trimester is the honeymoon period of pregnancy so enjoy it!!

 

[babyhopes2323]

no worries sheryl and nypage, i cant wait to get it myself and i will surely let ya'll know.. they say with that one, you can hear it at 8 weeks even so keeping fingers crossed !!

Flying.. yayyyyyyyyyyyyyyy congratulations !!! you have every damn right to be crazy and excited and happy and everything.. i would be the same.. !! so enjoy and have fun and relax and have your fun 12 week time.. cant wait for your scan pics. youve gota upload them and then teach me how to ! x

nyp, im sure most dopplers actually do pick up everything and even with this one, ive heard youve gotta be patient and you can hear everything in your tummy, i got the 3MHZ one so apparently this one has got a wider probe and should pick it up easier? but there are a few controversies on that... it comes on sunday or monday or something. so yeah, cant wait !

 

[nypage1981]

Baby- the doppler I have can be challenging because its very messy or noisy sounding. You really have to listen and find the baby's beat through all the other stuff. You will hear the placenta, our main vein, and some other whooshing, watery sounds! Excited that you'll be able to hear your baby whenever you want to now! Its awesome. I get addicted though. Today I've wanted to listen 3 times. IDK why?

Flying- have fun!

Happy 10 weeks Baby and happy 12 weeks Flying! Yeah even though you're still in first tri 12 weeks seems to be that "magic" week where people now expect the announcement to be official lol.

 

[flyingduster]

I'm popping in from work quickly, I will get home before I head off tonight but probably won't get online! lol. I'm all done here for the day except for Paris; she needs her bath (she comes with me, so she's gotta look good! haha) So TGIF and I'm looking forward to a weekend in the middle of the dog world; I've missed it! lol

Baby, I'll talk you through uploading photos sometime! I will most definitely share pics we get, and if we get a movie of it I'll share that too! heh.

Good luck with the dopler! It sounds like fun to play around with, but I don't really think I'll buy one myself, I don't worry enough to want to hear it all the time so would be a waste of money (I can't get them very cheap here at all) for when I wouldn't use it much!! Another month or so and I'll start feeling it move (omg!), and that'll be enough reassurance for me

 

[babyhopes2323]

Thanks NY for the heads up.. ive actually never ordered anything online on ebay so i was a bit worried about it being a dodgy website but this morning i got confirmation of my order , it has been shipped and they have even replied to my email and sent me other confirmation stuff along with an expected date.. no later than 5th of april, so im well impressed !

im not queasy anymore and dont really have any symptoms at all, so the doppler should be reassuring.

4 more days until my next scan !! well.. today is friday and the day has started so i dont count today and so starting tomorrow until the 6th, its 4 days !! hope my doppler arrives before !

hope everyone else is doing well ?? xx

hi everyone!

just popping in to say hello. Im in terrible pain with my lower back again and can barely walk so off to the chiropractor soon. I was trying to avoid going as he uses this massive vibrating machine on my lower back to relax the muscles, and I dont like having that done in the 2WW just incase. So I will mention that to him., but the pain is so bad I gotta do it. I tell ya, when I have this pain I think how we take for granted simple things like walking!!

yay its april 1...this is a great month for so many of you...you will be entering the 2nd tri! how many of you enter it in april?

 

[nypage1981]

SaRah- Poor you, with the icky back ache. I definately know how it is to not be able to walk some days. I've got scoliosis of the lumbar and it shifts my entire pelvis a bit and i pinch the sciatic nerve alllll the time. NO FUN! Hope your vibrator makes it feel better

I hope to enter the 2nd tri in april.

 

[sherylb]

My 2nd tri won't be until May 18th. Forever from now.

 

[babyhopes2323]

sorry about your back sarah praying the pain goes away.. i hate back aches, its a nightmare !!

my 12 weeks is on april the 14th if im correct so on bnb second tri im guessing is after 13 weeks, so yeah april for me too.. praying and hoping against hope to get to second tri safely.. ive had absolutely no symptoms at all, just tired thats all, even sore boobs gone, nothing at all so im getting worried even though my aunt and everyone else says im lucky to not experience any symptoms .. to me its constant reassurance !!

xxxx


Nypage youre hardly a week away from 12 weeks and im so excited for you.. dont worry youre going to glide through to second tri

I'm hoping to enter FIRST tri in April

I'm hoping to enter FIRST tri in April

me too!! really not expecting it though. my back pain has controlled my life and i cant think of anything else! have booked chiro apts next mon, weds, thurs and a massage on weds too. ny perhaps we have something similar....my pelvis gets twisted and hits the nerve and its like a stabbing pain, pain that is so excrutiating. and the muscles all around seize up so im very very stiff and walk like Im holding in a poo LOL. getting in and out of my car and up from a chair or bed is so painful. anyway usually 3 chiro apts helps things get back into place and looser, then Im going every week for maintenance! I need get all this sorted before I get a huge bump!!

anyway sorry for the moan, the good thing is Im not thinking about the 2WW at all and next week should go quickly!

omg I was looking in the smilies for the pray one (couldnt see it) and love this one

have a lovely weekend everyone!!

 

[NDH]

I have a rotated pelvis as well - my right hip joint actually protrudes about an inch from my back sometimes. I don't get any nerve pain though, just a constant dull ache.

 

[Dew]

Sorry about your backache Sarah...guess what, I have lower backache problem too....if I physically exert myself during the day, I am no good in the evening, I also have sciatic nerve problem...but luckily I never had to see a doctor or chiropractitioner for that, a good night's rest/sleep usually heals it well. I think BD and keeping the legs raised in air afterwards hurts the weak back even more. Hope you feel better soon!

Here's praying smiley for you Sarah although I like yours better

NDH: me too!

Good luck to all!

Hi ladies,

Just popping in briefly for a quick catch-up. Been super busy these past few days - work's been crazy and this weekend is not looking much better! Loads to do!

Hope everyone has a good weekend!
