PAL after Recurrent Losses - come join us!

Awwwww so cute!!!!! That is such a lovely photo you both look so happy. I love her smile :cloud9:.
 
Right hubby is watching footy and it's so boring. My friend called me tonight and she is having problems actually getting pregnant. She has been trying for 1.5 years now :shock:.I'm not sure what's worse...
 
Thanks girls, I am so lucky after all the bs the past couple of years.
I still can't believe it

Fili- I've seen that clip before, it's so cute! I think it was on the news here

Heart- no crotch pics this time! I have a couple of profile pics will post tomorrow. still so tired and in bed. Its cool to know where they are in you, and what the feelings are coming from, the girl kicks me upper left of belly button and boy kicks lower right. Boys feet are by girls head.
They are both 10 ounces and boy measured 19 + 5 and girl 19 + 2 (right on date)
Their feet are over 1 in long. They took so many pics, it was an hour for the pics. I just got a few for home, profiles and feet
They take so many measurements.

Hey ladies, back from the doctors. Everything was ok but this was the first time I felt as though my doc thought I was asking too many questions and just didn't take me seriously. I was having some pains in the hoo haa which I mentioned and I told her I knew they cold be normal but I was concerned that my cervix might not be up to scratch or something. I asked if they would check it at the anatomy scan and she tells me, "if there is a history of cervical incompetence they would check it" Thankfully I have never had to have an experience of cervical incompetence. This is my first long term pregnancy I have no idea if there will be a cervical problem. Hoping the ultra sound tech will give it a once over if I ask next week but I just felt like my doctor kinda brushed me off. I don't like to feel rushed. I don't expect to be in with her for hours but I see her once a month and that's the only time to ask questions. I think she forgets that I have had so many losses and might need a little extra support or time to have my fears heard.

I also gained about 8lbs according to the docs scales. I think its more like 5, but she told me not to gain that much again for the next visit. According to the docs records I have only gained 10lbs. I don't think that is too much even if that was right, I don't thin its quite as much as that (I weigh myself naked in the am and there I have different clothes every time, today I had a baggy sweater they told me I didn't need to take off)

Usually I am so excited to go to the docs and hear its all going well, but today I just felt kinda bummed out when I left, like I got told off and didn't really have any answers because she didn't check anything on me except the heart beat so now I am left to worry for another week until the scan to make sure everything is ok.

Ok, sad face needs to leave. I have a healthy baby in there. I know I am blessed, I am just nervous it will stay that way.
 
Croy - i felt the same around the same time as you - i had these weird twinges down low and i convinced myself that my cervix was not up to the job and the baby may come too early... i ended up making a private scan, they did the dildo cam scan to meaure the length of my cervix and it was very shut and a good 5cm long. But i know the reassurance was a relief, so i would ask at your scan if they can measure it, but try not to worry xx
 
Thanks Lou. I just needed some reassurance, and in the past the doc has been so good at that but this time she seemed distracted. I have always been so confident in my choice of doctor and not midwife and today was the first day I doubted my decision. Baby's heartbeat was great and I hope if I mentioned anything that could be a problem I hope she would have acted on it and checked or asked more questions but I felt like she had already decided nothing was wrong with me and didn't really listen.

Thanks for your reassurance. It means a lot. So excited for your little guy to make his appearance!!
 
Hopeful, I can't wait to see those pics. Post as many as you want. We'll all coo. I imagine it must have taken an extra long time with two in there! Imagine what Octo-mom went through?

Davies, I just gave up some :sex: for my hubby. I'm about to drive him to the airport and he needed a little release. But no sperm inside! Ever since my doctor said it can make the cervix soft and open, sperm is off limits. But I did allow myself to have an O. It felt good but now my uterus hurts a little bit. Baby was fine though. Of course I ran to my doppler immediately after! LOL!

Croy, that is very disappointing. I think that's why I decided to go with the high risk doctor. She's treating me much more cautiously than my other doctor was. My other doc didn't even think to check my cervix even though I've had 4 D&Cs. Definitely ask next week. It's easy for them to check. They checked with a belly scan first, but then also did the transvaginal scan just to double check. I'm sure yours is fine though. And I just KNOW that little baby is doing great in there.

Off to drive my hubby to the airport. I'm going to miss him, but am looking forward to having the house. Bye for now!
 
I know when i saw my nhs dr about it first he thought i was cookoo and it hurt that he thought i was nuts and wasnt taking me seriously and i had the same have you got a history of it - well no i never been this pg before. :nope:

I guess these people havent had a rough journey and dont realise how we feel, but i would def just ask them to check on your next scan, it cant hurt and only takes a few minutes - but just as reasurance i had the exact weird feeling like you mention around the same time as you :hugs: x

Heart - yay to house to yourself, i love having the whole bed lol - but i bet youll miss him lots x
 
Hopeful it does sound like SPD hun, it doesn't need to become an issue if you're careful and take your time. Don't stand on one leg, lol. :hugs:
 
Croy,that is not on at all, but it sounds like your doc was upset about something herself they are only human but that doesn't solve your problem does it? I would make an appointment to see someone else if I were you, your peace of mind is paramount. I recently had an ultrasound and insisted on a saline scan just to make sure everything was ok and the peace of mind is such relief. After all you've been through you need to put yourself first. Stupid doctor!! :hugs:
 
Davies- that is round ligament pain and normal stretching; google it. A warm washcloth over the sore ligaments helps. I had it really bad and had scan next day, all was well. Then it was gone and hasn't come back like that (yet)
Happy 19 weeks!

Croy- that sucks for them to treat you that way. Next time maybe ask them to write down the plan, when scans will be and what they will be doing. I'm lucky as my Obgyn is my re and high risk and she writes it all down, so helpful. They check cervix every 2 weeks, just externally as they can see it well enough, I know they do internal too but I havent had to have one internal.
Happy 19 weeks!

We will be having our glucose tolerance tests soon too! Which I hear is gross but will be good to know the results

Heart - yay for bd and o'ing! Hope you have fun with the place to yourself and then your mom there. She still in MA?

Lou- love the pic! Looks like you are in a hottub

Jen- cute bump pic too!

My boobs are going crazy, getting big and hot and red. My coworker said she would put bags of frozen peas on hers when she was preg.
I will really try and post pics tomorrow, still feeling a little woozy, so strange.
