PAL after Recurrent Losses - come join us!

[Mrs Reineke]

Hello ladies, I think I'm all caught up!!

wookie, your comment about your boobs cracked me up!! Yes, when you're old you'll probably have better boobs then most of us!! LOL!!

Ummi2boys, it's amazing how some women's boobs go up so much in cup size when others don't at all.

Mowat, I envy the A and B cups too!!

florida, as long as your DH loves your boobs, that's all that matters!! I did find my baby's HB early with my doppler at 9 weeks. That is NOT common at all though. A friend of mine's doctor had trouble finding her baby's at 15 weeks. So if really varies for everyone.

SweetV, if I only have to worry about what bra is going to fit me today in the boob problem category, I'll take it!!

loeylo, congrats on being in your longest pregnancy!! I would think having discomfort where your previous ectopic was wouldn't be super uncommon, but I'm not sure. Like the other ladies have said, I've heard of lightning crotch and knock on wood I haven't experienced it yet, just round ligament pain which sucks as well. I have the same problem with this forum helping me, but hearing all the bad things that can happen or have happened to women makes me worry way more than if I hadn't gotten on here. I Google everything these days and it's awful. Part of me feels I shouldn't be on here very much if at all to try to keep me from freaking myself out.

dairy, I get achy in my uterus on and off as well. Some days are way more so then others. I think that's very common.

Hope, that poem your honey gave you is a tear jerker. That was the sweetest thing he did. He must be an amazing man.

Hope- the poem brought tears to my eyes. Just beautiful

 

[floridamomma]

Hope that was the sweetest thing. He's a wonderful man. I read it to my husband he teared up too. Happy Mothers Day Hope.xx

 

[Ummi2boyz]

Hope: that made me cry too. You two are fantastic parents.

 

[dairymomma]

Hope: I'm sobbing over here. That's such a sweet poem and the sentiments are perfectly put. What a wonderful way to remember your little boy.

On the subject of lightning crotch-I have had pinchy ovarian cyst pain and nerve pain shooting down my thigh (think sciatica but down the front of the leg, not the back) but no lightning crotch. I will admit that my cervix feels so swollen that it's uncomfortable. It seriously feels like it's going to fall out because it's so big. It's not low either. I just checked this morning because it felt so low when the discharge hit [it wasn't] but I don't check it regularly as a rule.

 

[SweetV]

Hope - that is just beautiful. You are very lucky to have a DH that can express in that manner.
Happy Mother's day! (belated)

 

[mowat]

Happy Mother's Day ladies. Beautiful poem Hope.

 

[ab75]

Beautiful Hope. I'm in tears reading it xx

 

[ginny83]

that is so touching and beautiful hope. what a wonderful husband and dad!

 

[Hope39]

He hasnt made an honest woman of me yet, not even engaged, lol, we may as well be married though as we been together 13 years

 

[SweetV]

13 years is a long time! DH and I have been together for 10 in June and only got married 2 years ago.

 

[blueblue]

Hope - the poem is so lovely, I'm in tears. He must be a wonderful man.

 

[floridamomma]

Today's the day ladies. It's my final milestone I'm 8+4. So I don't have another scan until next Friday I'll be 10 weeks here's hoping I can get through the next week and a half without having a breakdown.

 

[blueblue]

Florida - congratulations on your 8w4d milestone! Good luck with the scan next week. I know how you feel, my next one isn't for 3 weeks (week 12), trying to keep calm and positive. The symptoms are still here and I'm hoping for the best

 

[Hope39]

Fingers crossed Florida , my next scan isnt until next thursday and it feels like its forever away.

xx

 

[dairymomma]

Florida-congrats on your milestone and FX the time flies by. I'm setting up a scan for early next week so hoping it flies by for me too. I'm anxious to know if everything is okay and if there's a baby/hb. If there is, my odds go up as I've only m/c once while on the meds after I've seen a hb.

DH and I have been together for 8 years now but I'm on the opposite end of the spectrum I guess. We did things quick. We met, started dating 2 weeks later, got engaged 2 weeks after that, and got married 6 months after that. Just over 7 months from start to finish. AND I was in college and we were long distance til I finished-which wasn't until 2 months after we got married. Talk about whirlwind. But it's what worked for us. Though I will fully admit I DO NOT want my kids to do the same....

AFM-nothing much to report. Going to have lunch this afternoon with a couple of friends so looking forward to that and I may tell them about the pg. But I may wait until after my u/s. Which reminds me. I still have to schedule it. I didn't get a chance to call the dr yesterday so I'd better go do that. Darn baby brain is kicking in and I'm forgetting everything...

 

[SweetV]

florida - congrats on making your milestone!
blue - it's funny that 3 weeks seems like FOREVER when it comes to u/s
hope - mine is next Thursday too
dairy - only thing worse than pregnancy brain is new mommy brain

afm - booked my u/s for next week. Was really hoping they would squeeze me in for the end of this one as I am already off work for this week but the doctor is not there that day. Nice thing about the clinic I go to is you do your ultrasound and then go right to the dr. for the results. With my last OB I had to wait a week.

 

[Tasha]

Hope you know how beautiful I think your card is Is Thursday your dating scan?

Florida milestones are always hard. Friday can't come soon enough eh?

Blue, hugs. I hate the wait between scans.

Dairy, I hope they can fit you in soon. We were like you dating within days of meeting, engaged within six weeks, date set (for a year later) just after that and then our two month old was at our wedding. We having been married eleven years in August.

That's a pain sweet, but I'm so glad they tell you there and then. It's what happens here and I couldn't have it any other way.

Lots of scans next week. Exciting. Mine is next Wednesday, I'm 24+3 then. The gestation RR was born at x

 

[dancareoi]

Hope, that poem are me cry too, its so beautiful. A lovely way to remember your angel and to feel him with you all the time.

My DH and I have been together nearly 27 years. We met when I was 17 and he was 19. We were together 9 years before we married and then another 4 before we had our first DS, we will be celebrating our 18th wedding anniversary in August!

 

[mowat]

Lots of scans coming up! I'm booked for Monday---I'll be 37 weeks. Never thought I'd make it this far!

Can't believe you're almost 24 weeks already Tasha! Time is flying---except when it isn't. If you know what I mean.
