PAL after Recurrent Losses - come join us!

Heart - congrats on being almost 16 weeks!! Don't stress the bf'ing, I was so scared Olivia wouldn't latch but that crazy thing latched so quick and didn't let go! Doc's were actually amazed that we were doing so good, she responded very well but a friend of mine who had her baby 3 weeks later refused to latch. She had some issues with feeling rejected and she was pretty bummed out about it. Although my breastfeeding class stressed that sometimes new moms get really frustrated and give up too easliy and that with time most babies do eventually latch! Don't know how true that is but hope it makes you feel a little more at ease!

Hopeful - I actually did have some testing for my thyroid and the 2 most common blood clotting disorders...they were all negative, I had this done after I had my daughter, so whatever is wrong with me has at least allowed me one and I pray this one will make it too!

Thanks to all the ladies who answered my symptom question!
 
Fili you crack me up!

Puppy, I've been using Argon oil on my belly and boobs to try and prevent stretch marks. I put it on my nipples too so they are nice and supple. You should try some sort of oil on yours.

Girls, I better have this baby because I just went to the fabric store and bought $100 worth of fabric for the nursery! I'm going to make a super, duper, cute and cuddly baby blanket and then I bought some matching fabric to frame and make into wall hangings. I'm so excited! I'll post pictures once I've made the blanket. But first I have to make one for my friend as she's due in March.
 
Puppy- yes, mine are super dry too and I'm really hoping I don't get stretch marks on them

Davies and Croy- happy 16 weeks avocados!
 
Yeh I need to find something to put on them, have to be careful though with the mongomery tubercles. They tell you not to 'wash' your nips with soap so will google creams that are safe
 
Heart- we always post at the same time! Congrats on buying fabric!!! It will get addicting now. I just got the call that they can deliver the cribs, dresser and mattresses tomorrow but they are going in the basement for 2 months. I am going to have them in the room after its painted in April as I read you should let them air out in case they smell like wood and finish. I've hardly even been around a crib, much less ever lifted a baby out of one!
Can't wait!!!
Leaving in 25 mins for scan, did a ton of laundry, wish I could stay home every day!
Fili- I meant to answer, my work is a little stressful but I was just so tired and nervous for the scan. Ive been getting some heart flutters too which Ive read is common but another thing to get nervous about. Going to talk to the dr about it today.
 
Hope you get to rest hopeful, look after yourself and your babies, they are no. 1 priority :hugs: :baby::baby: x x
 
Took a few pics of me but they were ming so I sweetened the deal with a joint pic of Laura. I look awful but considering I've lost so much weight through sickness I should probably cut myself some slack. You can't really see my hair either but it's shorter anyway, lol.

Talking about boobs ya like someone has stuck a pump in mine and blown them up ouch xxx
 
Puppy your hair looks cute! What I can see of it anyway. And Laura is super cute as always! Can't wait to see what your new babe looks like!

Jen, my boobs looked even bigger yesterday. I couldn't believe it! It's scaring me.

Hopeful, yay for getting the cribs tomorrow. But let's just get this scan over with so you can relax a bit. I'll be checking in soon for an update.
 
I hate having big boobs I've gone from a c to dd cup already lol x
 
I went from a B cup to a C, but I'm scared they might be a D. I loved my small, perky B's!
 
I was measured at an Ann Summers party last year as a C but I never fully believed it! lol. Now wearing non-underwired and they squash my chest to nowt. Hurts! lol
 
Scan went awesome! Post pics later, see dr in 15 mins. A is still a girl and b was hiding his parts but I'm sure he still has a penis :)
 
Hopeful I knew it would be perfect but Congrats just the same! Can't wait for a full update and pictures!!!
