I just got the call today for my first OB appt. I am happy with the OB I was referred too, he seems to have very good ratings. I will see him April 22. I think I'll be about 20 weeks then. He has me booked for an ultrasound at 730am and then to see him at 830. Going to be an early day! Lol I been waiting to hear about this appt for a while and I'm so glad it is sorted out:)
 
Xan...congrats on baby boy! How exciting! I'm convinced that I have a baby girl, so I'm curious to see if my gut is right about gender too! I'll be thrilled wither way, of course!

mari...that's such a long time to wait for an ultrasound! Hope the time passes quickly for you between now and April!

For everyone...does anyone know if MS gets worse before it gets better? I thought mine was pretty much gone and then the other night I threw up seven times. Since then, I have thrown up every morning and night. I'll be 12 weeks tomorrow and just wondering why my MS has suddenly gotten so much worse. When I had it before, it was really mild and I think I threw up 3 times total between 5 and 10 weeks. I was just nauseous all day. I hate all of this throwing up now! Ugh.

Oh... and today's my birthday! Waiting until the weekend to celebrate with my husband because neither of us are feeling great (he's sick...I'm morning sick haha).
 
Happy birthday, Amantila!

Macri, that does sound long for a first ultrasound. Is that normal in Canada?
 
Lora- I wake up every single night around 4 am and stay up for 30-60 minutes. It's so awful cause then I have to get up at 7 with interrupted sleep it's awful. I'm trying to get all the sleep I can now, cause once the third trimester hits it'll be a thing of the past.

Aman- My nausea got better but it never went away, some days it'll hit out of nowhere then disappear again.

Anyone else has a Doppler? I got one and I've listened to the heart beat twice now!
 
Campn, I SO want a Doppler, but MrMoo would probably just not see the point as we'll hear the baby at every Midwife appointment anyway.. but I may just see if any come up for sale on my local kidstuff selling site.

As for MS, on the whole, it's gone - but today I've had several moments when nausea has made a comeback, but I think it's because I've been on the go all day. Usually once I've eaten it's better.

I don't wake up to pee, it takes a lot to wake me up lol, but when I do wake up in the morning, I'm SO full it actually hurts.
 
Aman- happy birthday!! I had a dating ultrasound last week and I have a genetic testing ultrasound next week. The one in April will be my 3rd ultrasound. Lol I was just surprised the OB booked me in for an ultrasound right before my first appt with him. I have shared care between my family doc and OB. My family doc has been doing all my prenatal appt so far. She will continue to until I'm 28-30 weeks. Then see the OB from them on. There is one appt with the OB which is done around 20 weeks. I'm just happy to finally know who my OB is:)
 
The extra loo trips definitely doesn't help matters!

IM using the doppler- ive been able to find baby since 7+1 which is the earliest for me (possibly womb higher as started with two) x
 
Mum- With my first pregnancy, DH was like oh no we aren't buying one, and I didn't fight him on it, but since this is probably my last baby I just wanna make the most of it. Also I found a cheap Doppler for $39 on eBay and that wasn't horribly expensive!

Lora- 7 weeks!? Lucky lucky! I'm so glad you were able to hear it so early! It really gives a peace of mind.
 
I thought about getting a doppler, but I think it would stress me out too much and I'd get obsessive!

I know I'd worry if I had a hard time finding anything, and it would probably just be because I didn't know how to work it properly.
 
If I get one, if probably have to change the batteries every day! Still very tempted though!

Oh forgot to post earlier - happy birthday Amantilia!

It took me 40 minutes to find it the first time cause there's lots of different noises down there! But after that I knew how it sounds like and where the baby was so now I find it much easier but I completely agree it can stress you out!
 
I've thought about getting a Doppler, but I'm worried I become obsessed! Lol I may end up getting one in my 2nd tri.
 
MsUnicorn- good to hear from you and so glad you have excellent support. That makes a world of difference. So many of us have experienced a loss, and know we are here for you if you ever want to talk. Sending healing thoughts your way.

Xanza- so glad the pain is not too bad. I really hope you take tomorrow off from work too to rest up.

Amant- Yes, I think it is normal for the ms to act up badly again after easing a bit. I know what you mean by the vomiting. Ugh. I had to up my Zofran again. Hate that I have to take it still!
Happy Birthday!!

Mari- so great you have an excellent OB.

Sleeping is tough for me too. Only get 3 hours at a time. Nothing but stress past 20 hours. Had to admit my dad to the hospital. I'm handling giving my mom all the IV meds now and seriously feel so sick it is a struggle to do.
Not feeling very positive about my 12wk nt scan tomorrow. Just feel rather numb. I guess I have prepared myself for the worst. Though I can't imagine anything else terrible happening right now. I know it can though, and guess I'm prepared.

I'm sorry to be a downer. I know life has lots of downs..and ups too. Here's hoping some ups come up soon!!
 
Oh, hopie. I'm so sorry you have so much stress. I hope your dad is okay. Sending you warm thoughts and good wishes and I'll be thinking about you at your scan tomorrow.
 
Hopie- I am so sorry your going through all that right now. I really hope you dad is ok. I worry before each of my scans as well. I'll be thinking of you tomorrow:) Good luck!
 
Hopie, wishing you lots of luck for your scan today, and Hope your dad is OK. Times like this we need to live closer so we can help out however we can!
 
Oh, thank you all so sooo much! You all are just wonderful. I wish we could be 'real life' friends too and meet up! I can talk to you all more easily than some of my so-called 'real friends' lately!

Xan- CONGRATS on your boy!!!!!!!! So exciting!!

Thanks again. I'm up again all night. Can't wait 'til this day is over!

x
 
Hopie...I'm sorry to hear about your dad. I'm sorry about all of the stress and worries you've been dealing with...you are a strong woman! I'll be thinking about you today and your appointment! Hope that everything goes well! <3
 
Hopie- I was up a lot last night too again. I am feeling tired today. I've just made myself a coffee for the first time in ages and I can actually drink it! Who knows if the same will happen tomorrow. Lol Good luck today!!!
