PAL - August 2012 Rainbow babies!

[justwaiting]

God bless, welcome. Just take it one day at a time, I'm sorry I have no tricks or anything to help calm you but your around the time where you enter the 2nd tri and your mc risk drops dramatically. It is a miracle to be pregnant and you just need to keep the pma as much for u as you baby.

BBL - Sometimes those little buggers can be hard to find, hopefully your placenta is in the way or baby is just tucked in a corner somewhere. Thinking of you.

I'm jealous I want a baby dream, mine are just bizarre the other night I was an ice road trucker!!!

Welcome Godblessyou, our dd are very close

Chisox really happy to hear the good news!

Sara we're right on track together again Good things for us both! Are you having any gut feelings on the gender? Is DD excited to be a big sister? She's sooo cute btw sorry to hear about mil! Gggrrr that's really annoying for sure!

Babybumplove T&P hunni! I'm sure everything is just perfect with ur strong little bean but I can only imagine what the waiting & worrying must be like! Please send us a new beautiful picture & update as soon as u can tmmr

How's everyone doing this weekend? I did my first real house cleaning yesterday since the holidays! Felt really good but DAM my body is aching today! Lol

Hey Lisette, well I think it's a girl again but OH thinks it's a boy so one of us will be right! My DD was just 2 yesterday so she's still a bit young to really know what's coming. She's come along to our scans and we do talk about the baby in my belly but don't think she really knows what it all means! Thanks for saying she's cute too

I am happy to say that once again baby is doing great! The minute the ultrasound lady put the probe on my belly she was like “oh there it is!" Heartbeat was 153 bpm and baby is measuring 5 days ahead (so 15 weeks 6 days).

So get this, last night I said to my hubby if they can tell me the sex am I allowed to find out, he said No cause he wanted to be there (understandable). Anyway today she said "oh I can tell you what you are having if you would like." I just about died because I want to know sooooo bad, but I made a promise so I will wait 5 more weeks.

 

[MrsMoo72]

Aw fab news! Do you think it might be a boy then? I think a boy would be more obvious and she sounded confident?

beautiful scan pic babybump!

 

[jd83]

I don't know if I woulda been able to say no, haha! Too tempting!

 

[struth]

Great pic Babybump - glad to hear that all went well. And great restraint too!! I'm not sure if I could showed the same restraint. You should give yourself a pat on the back for that one!

MrsMoo -great to see you here honey. How are you?

 

[bizzy27]

I am KNOW for a fact that I would not have shown any restraint. I would have had her tell me and kept it a secret between me and baby. And then tell her (nurse) to make sure she lets me act surprised with my DH.

HAHA .. I am a sucka though.

 

[Neversaynever]

Ok...I am very late to this thread but can I join please?

I hope to get to know you all along this nerve wracking journey

XxX

 

[bizzy27]

Never too late to join. Err... no pun intended..lol. so have u had any scans yet? How is your pregnancy treating u?

 

[Neversaynever]

^^^

Yeah have had four scans so far...it's treating me ok thankfully...have a doppler which I call my sanity saver

What about you?

XxX

 

[jd83]

Never say never, good to have you I don't think I'd make it without my doppler either! I kinda go through withdraw and get twitchy if I go too many days without checking, lol.

Had my 15 wk appt today, heartbeat was strong And now I can schedule my gender ultrasound tomorrow! Woohoo! I am really hoping I can get it before March 23 because my sister, who is pregnant, and my brother's girlfriend, who is pregnant, and I are all going to a huge baby sale March 23. I really want to know by then so that all three of us will be able to get stuff. If not, I'll have to settle for just getting summer clothes for my son (which is also fun, but not quite the same as buying newborn stuff)

 

[struth]

Welcome Never :wave:

I'm the same with the doppler jd - I tend to leave it for 4/5 days and then have a slight 'I need to know if everything is okay' moment and pull it out again. Found baby last night really easily - so much easier than when I was 11 weeks! It jusy shows how they are growing. I think I will feel better when I have more of a bump and can feel him/her moving around.

Other than that - not a great deal to report here. Sickness went away for a few days last week and then came back with a vengence. I seem to be fine during the day but start getting nauseous from about 3pm onwards and then i'm sick in the evening. As long as I'm not feeling sick all the time I can cope. I just hope it ends soon....it is getting a bit tiresome now

Other than that I can't complain - all is good

 

[MrsMoo72]

Great pic Babybump - glad to hear that all went well. And great restraint too!! I'm not sure if I could showed the same restraint. You should give yourself a pat on the back for that one!

MrsMoo -great to see you here honey. How are you?

Hiya! Just stalking hunny! DH wants to wwt for another month so i'm just biding my time....

Glad everything's going well for you...Happy 16 weeks!!

 

[jd83]

Mrsmoo, good luck! One more month will go before you know it

 

[bizzy27]

Never - no shame in having so many sonograms. I have had 5 sonograms myself. I guess after 3 m/c's my dr is not taking any chances. . . Well, except for the first sono i had at 5w5d ... I had some spotting and refused to leave til I knew baby was okay. Doc said I wouldnt see anything, not even a hb at that stage.. but I did!! And then because of my age he wanted to do a Sequential Screening for Downsyndrom/Spinabifida.

Struth - I am sorry you are still have terrible morning sickness. I am glad it at least gives you some peace (before 3) lol.. Man, you must have REALLY WISHED FOR MS..

JD - I am the EXACT same way about my doppler. Usually I spend a few days thinking how I want to use it but too afraid I wont hear anything.. then I cave in.. and sure enough bubs is doing great!! As a matter of fact.. for giggles I tried to find hb WITHOUT any GEL.. I was surpised to be able to hear it.. I mean barely .. but I heard it. It does show how much they are growing... *sigh*

Mrs Moo - I am sorry you have to wait another month , but maybe DH has a good point. It gives your body that litte extra time to get that "boost" GL and I am sending you tons of

 

[MrsMoo72]

Thanks you guys! I'm trying to focus energy on decorating our bedroom as a distraction...plus it will be like a boudoir in time for baby making antics hehe!!
