* September Stars 2014 * 41 babies born!

[Naaxi]

My MIL was so disappointed and not happy for us at all when we told her I was pregnant in April... but at least she said sorry when I lost it. I send hugs. Not sure when we are telling MIL this time.

Hi everyone! I'd love to join you ladies! I'm expecting #3 and due Sept. 26.

I'm a bit reserved as I've had 2 early losses in 3 months, with the last being just 3 weeks ago. I'm hoping this is my sticky!

Congrats everyone! H&H 9 months!

 

[Naaxi]

Hello and welcome, leinzlove. I hope this is your sticky!!

How is everyone feeling?

 

[MommyCandice]

hi ladies, i am so tired and achy all over this time
when we told mil and fil this past weekend i really was worried before hand that they would chew our head off but instead they were very supportive and excited.
Think I'm going to ask my doctor is they are watching my closer this time around due to the anticonvulsants I am on and that fact that they can cause spina bifida that part rele worries me and def keeps me up many a nights

 

[Leinzlove]

MommyCandice: I sure hope they would be monitoring you better. The pro's must outweigh the cons or they wouldn't allow you to take it. All will be well.

AFM: Already tired.

 

[MommyCandice]

I have an appointment set with my neurologist and another specialist to talk about the pros and cons of both having a seizure and what the meds will do so they can decide whether its better to keep me on them or not im just worried

 

[Leinzlove]

Ahhh... I see. Try not to worry.

I also have 2 toddlers. A little girl just a few months older than yours. And a little girl that just turned 1 on Wednesday!

Tentatively moving over here if you ladies will let me..

I am apparently 3 weeks and 4 days today, and due September 28th! This baby is a clomid baby, and I got my first BFP at 9dpo.. And it's now 11dpo and the lines are getting stronger.

We've had 3 losses so I am so nervous but fingers crossed we'll be able to stick around here!

Welcome and best wishes for a sticky bean this time.

I got an early ultrasound today so check on some cramping I had been having. I actually got the script from the ultrasound back in November but had to cancel my appointment. So I went today! While they were checking my ovaries for cysts, or to find out what could be causing my cramping, they checked out the baby! It was too early to see a heart beat (darn I should have waited another week)... we saw a perfect gestational sac and yolk sac! Just like it should look for 5w4d!

Nice to have you on the thread, fingers crossed its 3rd time lucky.

So sick of feeling sick. Hubby snuck up behind me last night and kissed me on the side of my neck and I retched! Just couldn't cope with it being touched. Feel like a half wife and mum atm, usually go to a playgroup today but not going as I feel too sick, DD is teething too so all she wants to do is snuggle on my knee with her books so to be fair I doubt she'd get much out of it today.

Hi everyone!

Apologies for my prolonged absence, it's been a whirlwind week but everything seems to be a bit calmer now that the weekend is here.

I'm 5+6 today and feeling very tired! Had the week off of work because of Avia's diabetes but still exhausted despite this. Think I may need to invest in some iron tablets!

How is everyone?

 

[Kittycat155]

How do I get my start into signature and to be center?

Nevermind had option turned off for advanced settings as tried to make this site faster. Something is wrong with my username as site is FAST when I am not logged in but minute I log in slows down. 2 laptops chrome, firefox and IE all same crap.

leinzlove, MommyCandice and loveand terror! Leinzlove - I have a good feeling about this one. MommyCandice - asking the docs to monitor you will definitely give you peace of mind. Like Leinz said, they wouldn't let you take it if it were that dangerous.

AFM: Very tired, sore bb's and nausea comes and goes. I POAS again this morning just so I could see a darker line and it made me happy! First pic is 13 dpo and second pic is this morning at 20 dpo.

 

[bananabump]

Hi sorry I've been a bit absent lately.. I've been suffering really badly with tonsillitis all week and still feel rubbish so I've been sleeping a lot! Also feeling nauseous a lot so haven't eaten much

Congratulations to all the newbies! I'll add you all to the list now

Jokerette your scan is fab! I've got an early one on the 29th.. can't wait xx

 

[chippyslady]

Sorry to hear about tonsilitis banana! Hope you feel better soon!

 

[HisGrace]

Hi ladies. I am due with #2 on September 19th. This was a surprise, but we are happy.

 

[lady luck12]

Hi Ladies,
How's everyone doing?
My boobs are super senative & extreamly tired this week. Having really pulling pains too, scared me a bit too.
Excited and nervous about my scan on Monday x x x

 

[MrsMalcolm]

Today is not a good day. I am trying to stay hopeful and positive, but it is really hard. Today I had my first scan, thinking it would bring some piece of mind since I have been spotting since Sunday and on bedrest at doctor's orders. But the sonographer saw no gestational sac, no heartbeat, nothing. I broke down and she tried to comfort me, but what could she say. She sent my results to the doctor right away and he called to tell me not to worry that although I a 6 week, 4 days according to LMP, I may not be as far along based on conception. He said it may be too early to see anything and we may need to wait a week or two for another scan. Still my mind is not at ease, especially after learning that according to my blood work last Friday my progesterone was only 7. My HCG was 450 which is fine for early pregnancy, but 7 for progesterone is not good. I have been taking 400 mg of progesterone since last Friday hoping it will make the difference. I have been experiencing morning sickness, nausea and vomiting for the past week, which the doctor says is a good sign. Right now I have to wait until Monday to see if HCG and progesterone are rising and maybe this is just a case of a scan too early or if it is declining and I have already lost the baby. I miscarried last year, it took 11 months to get pregnant again. I really don't think my heart can handle another loss.

 

[lady luck12]

MrsMalcom - really hope its a too early scan & have everything crossed it all works out. x x x

 

[Tigerlilyb]

MrsMalcom try not to worry, as you said your hcg was only 450 a week ago (so guessing it'll be around about 3500-4000ish now? just a guess) and they usually won't even do a scan until hcg is at 2000ish - this is when you'll see an empty gestational sac and that's all (sometimes not even that). I only got to see a yolk sac and foetal pole this week and my hcg was at 250k+.

It does sound like you ovulated late LMP dates can be so worrying! Your symptoms are really promising

Keeping my fingers crossed for you. Hopefully you're just a few days out. When I went for an early scan she said they don't normally do them until at least 6 weeks as often they can't see anything before then.
