Pregnant with #1 ~ May Babies 2013!

[BellaRosa8302]

I think I am getting a nuchal scan. Haven't had my first prenatal appointment yet so I don't know if my doctor does 12 week scans or not. I hope so, as I don't want to give my mom permission to spread the news without a scan.

Same here! My mom and my husband's dad have been DYING to tell people, lol. DH and my response was after the first scan - which is TOMORROW! So excited/nervous

Well my mom wants to tell, but so far she's doing the best job keeping her mouth shut! Apparently my dad has almost told several people, including announcing it to their entire church!!! And MIL has told people that she works with, and the lady at the bank! That I find kind of random

My first ultrasound will now be this Wed! YAY! Had to move it due to my insane schedule.... SO excited!

 

[aknqtpie]

Yay!! Mine is on Thursday!!

We will have to compare scans!

 

[Jinbean]

My next scan is tomorrow morning! So excited to see the difference since last scan on 20 Sept! Good luck to everyone having scans! Big Hugs! J xxx

i'm so jealous you all get to have scans soon - i'm having my first mid wife appt though tomorrow but no scan for another month

 

[aknqtpie]

Booo.. that sucks!! Well the last month has flown by for me, so hopefully it will do the same for you!

 

[padbrat]

OOoo ladies good luck for your scans am looking forward to looking at lots of lovely blobs!!

 

[BellaRosa8302]

Well, it was the most beautiful blob I've ever seen! (And actually, I thought it looked like a baby!) Everything is great! They moved my due date - I'm now due May 7th - I'm 9 weeks today Got to see the heartbeat too! So excited - really made it feel real!

As for pics - the printer was broken but they saved the image in the computer and I can come pick up a photo when it's fixed...

 

[aknqtpie]

That sucks!!! Hopefully they can email it to you!

 

[BellaRosa8302]

That sucks!!! Hopefully they can email it to you!

Naw - they said I can come by and pick up a copy as soon as their printer is fixed. It's not too far from home - DH said he could pick it up on his way home one day. But yeah, it did suck not to be able to take a pic home!

 

[aknqtpie]

How exciting! I can't wait to see my baby on thursday!

 

[Megan1986]

Get to see my little baby tomorrow! Cannot wait!!!

so I got an early scan on Oct 1st with my fertility specialist before I start seeing a regular midwife, it went really well! I found out that I'm having twins! I got to hear both heart beats! The babies measured 7w2d and 7w0d! So, my due date is a bit sooner than my cycle would suggest, I'm now due the 20th of May! We were planning on waiting until 10 weeks to start telling family, but it's getting really hard to not tell people - plus I'm really starting to show and I don't want someone to ruin dh and I being able to announce it to our families, we're debating telling them sooner. I'm living in the UK and all my family lives in the US so I think we're going to announce over skype. Any great ideas how we should tell them? Especially with it being twins?

 

[Sass827]

Twins?! Congrats! Congrats! How awesome. Who do you think will tel your fam?

Congrats on the twins! We had to announce it to my parents over Skype as well, as they live in another country. We announced it the day after we found out though, which was coincidentally also Grandparent's day or something. So we just said we'd not been able to tell them something the day before, because it was a Sunday and everyone was busy with church, but we wanted to tell them Happy Grandparent's day!

If it'd not worked out like that though, my EDD is 2 days after my mom's birthday, so I would've worked that in some how. Like oh I've already decided what you're getting for your birthday, or something like that.

My ORIGINAL plan was to send them a box with some children's books in it, and have a note on it to open over Skype with us. But they only get mail every 2 weeks, and we knew that in 2 weeks anything could happen, so we decided to just tell so they could have some good news =)

I had another ultrasound on Monday! The baby is still looking good! This time the baby was measuring 8w6d which would put the baby at 9w1d today but they wouldn't change my due date So by my due date I'm 8w4d and by the u/s I'm 4 days ahead!

Hi ladies, I would like to join you. I am due May 1 st. I had my first us done on Sept 6 and we saw a heartbeat. I have not been sick or anything but really feel like I am showing because of all the bloating! We have another apt tomorrow. I am hoping for another us to give me some emotional relief, I want to see that heartbeat again since I have had no ms. But I will also be happy hearing it through a Doppler I guess. I will be 10w1d tomorrow.

I work at a high school and I feel like teachers and students can tell or know somehow. I am planning on having my girlfriends over on Saturday to let them know..... So hard keeping a secret. I told my mom two days after I found out. I had a missed miscarriage in June so needed mom to be there to help!

Anyone else go for their second apt yet? What did they do?

I am so happy and love to ready everyone's posts.... Though with my emotions I get choked up sometimes. Good luck to everyone!

 

[padbrat]
