So I guess this is my first Nine Month Wait...

[Melsue129]

Hey ladies... Glad everyone seems to be doing okay... Man I had alot to read up on... Tried to get on yesterday with no luck.... Everyone must have been having withdrawals...

Wannabe and Kelly - I hope you both start to feel better soon....

Wannabe welcome to the second tri - its suppose to get easier now so just hang in there... When is your next scan?

Kelly - you must be counting the hours and soo excited.. Cant wait to see your beanie pics!!! Post them as soon as you can... I am happy you are okay from your car accident, very scary - we had frozen roads here this morning and I was slipping and sliding, I went real slow to work, I was late and I didnt care it was too dangerous to be going fast for me... Very scary... Ekkkk... But glad you are okay.

Csunshine - sorry you had a rough night with the DH, mine gets me too sometimes, men can be so insensitive sometimes and they certainly dont get what we are going thru at all... Ive been real lucky lately with my DH (knocked on wood) I think he's learning more as the weeks go by... Hang in there.. I did have those angry bouts but not many because by that time I was sick as a dog and was afraid if I opened my mouth I was gag more... LOL..

DMN - sorry your lil girl is still playing jumping jacks on your bladder... eeeekkkk.. that has to suck... I also love your name choices..... DH and I again were talking about names lastnight we can never decide on specific ones and all we talk about is girls name so most likely this kid will be a boy... LOL

Sorry if I forgot anyone, hope all is well!!!!

Im doing okay - finished our Christmas decorations this weekend so the house is festive.. DH is totally into Christmas this year and all the past years he was total opposite couldnt care less. He came home with ornaments that say Babys first Christmas, ect... He was sooo funny... Im feeling better and my belly is really starting to pop out, I look like a skinny girl with a beer belly... Kind of weird... LOL

Hi everyone, sorry about the fight with DH csunshine but, and I am not bragging, DH and I don't fight like that. In almost 7 years we never have. I mean we get upset with one another but when that happens we don't talk for a couple of hours or a cry a little then we make up. I like that we don't fight cause I used to fight with my mom a lot when I lived at home and I hated it. DH hates fighting to so I reckon thats how it will always be although I do get frustrated that he doesn't help clean. He has been good since i went back to class and got knocked up and all though, better then usual.

I will post piccys when I get home, I will have to figure out how to do it I only did it once before but that was a while ago.

Well need to study more then anything at this point.

 

[Csunshine013]

I never get physical but something snapped and I did. I usually just get miffed and tell him about it and then we go on. I do have verbal fights with him and he knows he was in the wrong last night about not coming to DD's Christmas program, bth he was probably a little drunk to go to church so didn't want him there anyway. I hate that when I tried to reach him his phone was shut off! He claims it died but I know for a fact that there were two others there he could have used their phones!

Ok enough about that.

Upload those pics Kelly!

 

[westbrja]

Our's never get physical either, but that day I could't help it.

Oh be careful of those H1N1 vaccines preggo ladies. There has been some talk around the hospital about them causing m/c due to the increased level of mercury. I don't know all the facts and am not sure how valid this is but IMO I would't test it. Ive already had mine back in October so I can't do anything about it now.

 

[Kelly9]

Ok as a student nurse I would like to tell you the H1N1 shot cannot cause mc's due to mercury! There is less mercury in there then a can of tuna! And I am pretty sure a can of tuna doesn't cause mc's either! West not shooting you down since you said you had no idea but I get frustrated when other people spread myths around about something that is definitely needed especially by preggo ladies, to people who don't know about the vaccine,we are the highest group at risk for contracting H1N1 and there are severe consequences to getting it and being sick. I got mine like cd3 of the cycle I got PG. ALso there is also a shot that is non adjuvent that doesn't have the mercury at all.

Ok rant done. I recommend us all having it but respect those who choose not to so long as it is an informed decision. If you're not sure ask your GP.

Oh god Oh god Oh god I got my notes done but haven't studied them, went to my room to read them then fell asleep for a couple of hours! Crazy baby!

sorry not been on been preparing for DS birthday tomorrow what a lot i had to do lol

Melsue all i had picked out was boys names so had to rethink when i found out it was a girl lol i think so far i am settled on Lucie i like the fact it is spelt with the ie it is different lol

Csunshine men are so dopey sometimes i dont think they think about their excuses before they actually say them or they would not come out with such stupid things sometimes lol

Kelly hope your getting the study done you need too and that your ms stays away while you get through that exam

West it looks like i am not going to be offered the H1N1 jab anyway as my surgery dont seem to have any in how you doing today

anyway im off to my bed now it is nearly 1am and im exhausted lol and i have a list of things to do later midwife collect birthday cake go shopping for party food and then get home to cook and set it all up i need help lol

anyway hope your all well and if driving in bad weather take care on the roads il pop in tomorrow at some point between breathing lmao

 

[dmn1156]

kelly hope you get done i looked into the shot and said i would get it but everytime i phone my surgery all i get is we will contact you when it is available whenever that may be i dont know

 

[Kelly9]

Well if you can DMN get it but we have a shortage out here to so sometimes it is not possible just take extra good care of yourself and stay away from sickies! I got mine cause I am in health care so was lucky.

 

[wannabeamom]

hi girlies how are you all today??

sunshine hope you are feeling a bit better and you and dh have kissed and made up xx

my next scan is on the 1st feb wish it was sooner though...got into a bit of a stress last night with worrying...apart from the ms and feeling sleepy i have no other symptoms...even the sore boobies have gone, i know lots of people say that symptoms come and go but i cant help but worry see the midwife on the 29th so hopefully she will try and find a heartbeat

xxx

 

[shawnie]

Howdy doo ladies...

I got my shot a while back. It was one of those things when I went in for my visit they said oh here take this lol. I had a friend over for the weekend and saw my sister a few days ago and both of them told me yesterday the are sick now! I hope I don't catch it. Guess I'll know in a few days.

wannabeamom, I didn't have sore BB's at all.. Now off and on I have sore nipples and leaking but nothing real terrible. As best to my knowledge, sore bb's don't last the whole pregnancy with some people. Sure there are exceptions but most people I've spoke to said it went away then came back later. I'd try not to worry about symptoms too much lady. You will make yourself sick with worry. I know I worried a little in the start due to only having the two symptoms but now I'm just trying to enjoy being pregnant and thinking positive... The only ones I have been having now is growing pains, heartburn, and swollen BB's (not sore just enlarged lol).

AFM, Had a night of some pains. I was in bed way early in the fetal position tossing and turning. Not sure if she's kicking my fibroid or shes just growing again and making room. I ended up having a few sips of wine once I realized the normal tylenol wasn't helping (3 or more hours of pain).. I haven't been drinking at all but lastnight I was thinking, ok should I take the strong meds with codeine or a few little sips of wine? I choose the wine..The wine made me fall asleep after about a shot worth. I'm not going to make a habit of doing it but it worked for me. Not that 3oz or 4oz of wine once in a blue moon is going to cause any problems...

Csunshine, I really hope things get better hun. I am one of those people who really doesn't like arguments and will avoid them as much as possible. Being hormonal doesn't help much either. I know for me everything is heightened. I get irritated too easy right now which is not like me. I'm just lucky DP knows and just kinda shrugs it off and not takes it personal. On Thanksgiving he didn't want to leave early to go with me to my sisters and drive himself.. Oh boy did I blow up but that lasted about 5 minutes and I told him sorry. Did you ask him why he didn't want to go see her program?
The way I think of things is there must be an underlining reason that hes not expressing. I dono, guys don't make since to me sometimes.. Then again, some of us ladies don't either sometimes hahaha

 

[Melsue129]

DMN - hope you have a good day and the birthday party is FUN!!!!

Wannabe - dont stress, my symptoms have gone too except for some headaches that I seem to be getting... I cant stand them, I wake up with a headache and go to bed with one... uuughh.... I bought a doppler - Angelsounds doppler and I check on the babes that way by listening to the heartbeat it puts my mind at ease.. I know Ive talked about it before I forget with who on here but just so you know its an inexpensive doppler thats for sure and it works great... Also, I havent had sore boobies since the beginning and the MS went away around Week 10 or 11 so Ive just sitting and waiting....

I have my next appt on Thursday with a nurse practiioner - she will take my blood pressure and check the heartbeat, maybe even weigh me - I wonder if I even gained any weight at all.. Hmmmm... Cant wait for Thursday - appts at 10:30 and then my DH has an appt for his back at 2pm in Boston so we have to drive into the city which isnt really fun but this dr is suppose to be the best of the best in Boston for spinal surgeries and we are looking for a good second opinion about his back. Hopfully we will have one.. Busy day on Thursday....

Dying to get rid of this darn headache!!! Question girls - Has anyone ever felt pressure when they sat down... When I sit down, if I plop myself down its worse, I feel all kinds of pressure in my privates and my belly, it makes me achy so I have to be careful when I sit, just wondering if anyone else had that feeling while pregnant?????

 

[shawnie]

Melsue, yeppers.. ohh yes I do off and on.... I tend to hold under my belly before I sit and it makes it better and I sit slow now. It doesn't happen all the time but has many times for me.

The NP had me get a belly support already which helps when standing and walking but I just hold under my tummy before I sit. (even when going to the restroom I hold under my tummy lol)

I was talking to the NP about it and she explained to me that the pelvic bone that is fused together in the middle starts to move and change, more like widen to prepare for birth and all that (thats where the wide hips come in lol) witch can give you the feeling of pressure or slight pains that lead down to your wohoo lol Not sure if that's the pressure your talking about but that's what mine was/is....

Have you got the swollen girly bits insides down there yet from standing too long? Talk about a strainge feeling haha

 

[Csunshine013]

Hello my lovley preggo ladies! Oh that's so nice to say again!

Hope your all well! DH appologized to both me and DD this is what DD's response was "everybody has time for God" LOL out of the mouth of babes oh how true! We had a nice dinner and when I got home from work DH had finished up the dishes from the morning and night before and hoovered the living room and swept the kitchen! He knew he was in the wrong don't get me wrong I am not proud that I smacked him but he must have re-thought his actions.

Nothing new to report today just doing the day by day thing.

 

[Kelly9]

Hello!
SCAN TOMORROW!!!!! EEK! It's all I can focus on! Well that and not barfing. Going to take my meds soon. Exam went well, I feel good about it, I didn't go an pull an A out of my ass although I wish I did! I am just surprised at how good I felt about it considering I didn't get much studying done due to ms.

 

[westbrja]

Hey Gals!

How is everyone today?

Kelly - Glad you did well on your exam . About the H1N1, I don't have a lot of info about it but just want to be sure that women do their research before getting it and aren't getting it just cuz the doc said so. Just like everything in the medical world there is always controversy . Good luck on your scan tmw.

Csunshine - We musta done something to the OH's when we hit them. Im convinced I knocked something back into place cuz he's being so sweet again lol.

Dmn - I'm doing pretty good, how are you?

AFM - Well my OH and DS were wrestling at 7am this morning and somehow (which I'll never know the whole story) broke DS's crib. My first reaction was balling my eyes out. DB swore he could fix it and I was yelling that it would't be safe and my baby wasn't going into some half-assed crib. Then after I thought about it I realized that I would be able to go shopping and get something new and the tears magically dried up lol. I wasn't planning on spending $250 for a crib since that one was in perfect shape and I had it for both DD and DS, but at least I get to shop . Other than that I am just exhausted. Work has been fairly slow but I'm hitting that tired stage of pregnancy . Just killling time til Friday.

Sorry if I missed anyone. to everyone.

 

[dmn1156]
