Sticking Together Until We Are In Diapers Ourselves!

[aidensmommy1]

Thanks for the update Daphne and glad your bp is stabilising even more.

Sorry for the dizziness some of you have, just try something salty or Coke helps too.

Kenna, I can't believe you are losing plug already! Go body go

Afm: sorry for being so quiet! As Daphne mentioned the new ladies have some issues here and there and I cannot help but get annoyed as I finish work on Friday and I made it clear to not call me after. I'm not just on ML but I resigned so after Friday I don't owe them jack shit and they should not call me. Plus I've been utterly exhausted since yesterday and 2 weeks after my flu shot I'm starting to get sick. M throat is so sore plus my fingers started to swell a bit and I'm dreading taking my wedding bands off as they are so sentimental and important to me.

All-in-all I'm just feeling sorry for myself and didn't want to drag you gals down

aw I'm sorry Pam. If they do call and bug you after Friday, put a block on your phone from them calling! With you resigning, as you said, you dont owe them ANYTHING!
And I'm sorry about your hands swelling. Thats one thing I do remember from being pregnant with Aiden. I had to take my grams ring off & it drove me nuts not having it on. What I did was I put it on my necklace, that way It was still on me at all times. It helped me feel better about taking it off. Damn water weight! :-\.

BTW, never worry about dragging us down! We're here to support you through both good times and bad. Shoot, you've heard me vent so many times! Anytime you need to vent, I am more then happy to listen (or read, lol).

Mary, i forgot what it's called it's like mono something. The question now lies when the fertilized egg split. If it happened earlier both babies will implant separately and will have their own placenta which is better than when they split a little late coz both babies will end up sharing one placenta. This means the pregnant woman will get an extra extra care and monitoring.

There's a reason for salty and coke thing that Pam mentioned. When i had the highest BP 160/110 i was told not to eat salty, spicy, softdrinks and anything caffeinated as they make it higher. So if your dizzy and BP is low these are your options to take.

I eat lots of salty foods so I guess I've been helping myself without even knowing! Lol. I eat healthy too but salt also helps prevent OHSS & absorbs the extra fluids so I've been munching on salt & vinegar chips alot. Those have always been my favorite chips and plus, I have a pickle craving in the worst way already and the salt & vinegar chips seem to help that craving sometimes. Apparently my taste buds think they taste alike
Anyway, its good to know this helps BP as well. It seems we all learn something new everyday!

 

[aidensmommy1]

Thanks for that Daphne. Look at you talking like it is going to be twins...lol. I bet you there will be 1 sac on Friday and 1 HB on June 10th. Your starting to freak me out a little! Lol. I mean, I'm ok with twins but I'd just prefer one healthy baby, rather then any complications of course. If I have 2 healthy/ strong babies in there, bring on the twins! Lol. I see too many IVF ladies having still births with twins and its scary as shit! Excuse my language! Thats why the RE absolutely insisted on only 1 embryo. Omg, imagine if we had put 2 back and this one split and then there were 3...I def think my RE made the right choice for us! Its def possible that the embryo split, as it was such a highly graded embie but I'm sticking with my guess!
Really though, EVERYONE has asked if its twins after I tell people my levels, lol. Maybe it is...? But I'm sticking to my guess of 1! Your getting me more n more excited for my u/s to come Daphne! As long as this baby/babies healthy and strong, I'll be more then happy!

 

[mdscpa]

Sorry for making you nervous not my intention. But remember you ladies did that to me as well when i got high levels then Jess turned out to be higher, pam and cheryl as well and we all end up with one healthy baby. Of course im rooting for only one baby for you. But if it happened to be two im sure you are well looked after by your doc.

 

[MamaBunny2]

Aww Cheryl that stinks they didn't give you a photo at your first scan... wonder why? You and your every three day poos I haaave to poo at least once a day. If not, I worry... Love the ravel system, very nice! And those onsies/shirts - adorbs! Your bump is so out there now, love it!

Hi Chelsea Not sure if I ever introduced myself? I'm Jyllian. I need to really remember the new names! My brain is terrible Oh my gawwwd I have been craving a cold cut from Subway... but wasn't sure about the deli meats I've stayed clear of it since shortly after I found out I was pregnant but have been wanting it badly as of late. I've stayed clear of hot dogs as well, but had a few over the holiday weekend. OH made sure they were "all beef" kind.

Michelle I have no clue about anything regarding bets and hcg But keep us posted on your numbers! I know some of the other girls are defo educated on that (ahem, Daphne lol) I can't believe how much I DIDN'T know and this is my third baby

Mmmm Dani! I love Panera! I am starting to freak out about the time that's left... or lack of time. I think we have plenty of time? That gif is hilarious omg that's so how I feel!

Daphne you're so super organized with all this info for everyone! Glad your BP is staying down. I did remind myself that this is my LAST WEEK of third tri, holy crap! Totally forgot about being in double digits now, however... ahhhhh!!! Dani I take that back, there's not enough time!

Yay Kenna! Perhaps D-day is closer than we all think for you?

Aww Pam I'm so sorry things are cruddy at work. It's your last week, it shouldn't be this stressful I agree, once your last day is complete they can figure things out for themselves... it's no longer your responsibility. And with the way they've been towards you, I don't blame you one bit for not wanting to help!

Has anyone heard anything from Que? I think she had an appointment this week...

AFM - 26 weeks!

I can't believe this is my last week of second tri! Where has the time gone? I'm really anxious to see our son in person and hold him (I know my OH is!)... but I looove being pregnant and am a bit nervous about having another child to fully care for so the more weeks that fly by the more nervous and anxious I get. And, crazily enough, I'm kind of nervous about giving birth Our birthing classes begin next week so that will be interesting! And my next volunteer ultrasound is next week as well! So much is happening and I'm stressing out about getting things finished up at home My OH wants to go to a car/truck show out of town this weekend... but all I wanna do is work on things at home. Ugh! Hopefully some things can be done throughout the remainder of the next few days so I can relax a bit...

 

[aidensmommy1]

I have heard from Que and she said she will most likely come on and update today. Her urine test at the doc was bfn but she's waiting on beta results today. I am really praying she gets an answer! And a good one at that!

I'm Mary, mamabunny What's your name? I need to get to know some of the new names as well! I know most of these ladies from our bfp thread but there's a few on this thead that I haven't officially "met" yet. Your bump is so cute, btw!

EDIT-I see your name is Jillian! (sry I may have spelt that wrong!)

Thank you Daphne! And I KNOW you'd never want to make me worry! And I do remember going nuts over ur betas, lol. Its my turn for payback!

Ah, ok thanks! I may need to make myself another cheat sheet for a week or two Yup, Jyllian - with a Y but close enough!

Ooh, forgot to mention... a friend of mine that moved out of state recently messaged me on Facebook and said she had something going on I may be amused by

She's pregnant! Again lol

Her youngest is a year and a half and she has a daughter the same age as mine (10) and a son that's around 8 I think. Wasn't a planned thing and I believe I'm the only person she's told so far so I feel kinda special She's kind of nervous because there's no family or many friends where she's living at now. I told her I was so happy for her and everything will be just fine! Another bump buddy! Also, my OH's buddy and wife have a scan today so I'm anxiously awaiting an update on that! So much excitement lately!

 

[mdscpa]

Nice of you to say that Jyllian but i just have a good teachers Dr. Google and of course Professor Mary. All these TTC rides made me learn things i didn't know existed. All i know is, you marry, sleep together and BAMMMM you're pregnant!!!! Never thought it'll be that hard, and knowing we'll be parents soon i mean soon freaks me out a little bit. There's much things we need to learn one of them is how to bathe a new born. We both never experienced that with our nephews and nieces so now we're trying to learn everything from youtube, our new teacher

BTW, you look beautiful with that bump.

 

[mdscpa]

Mary, i think we'll be waiting a lot longer for the tickers to be back. Tried creating a new one and got this message. I think i'll get back to babygaga or thebump tickers for now.

[melewen]

Love the bump J! I'm kinda freaking out about time left too. Since I have to get all my work done before taking ML I'm getting nervous about HOW soon it needs to be done! I'm thinking by 35-36 weeks but that means basically an extra months worth of photos omg. Not sure I'm going to do it.. Kinda freaking out. Also hopeful that the client will be helpful in getting me their needs sooner rather than later!

Michelle love today's temp!

Mary I wouldn't worry at 19 DPO my betas were 5795 and we have a LOT of twins in my family but just one little man in there for me!! Phew..

so I think I've decided the general theme kinda thing for our nursery. I've been obsessed with this books artwork and decided it would be cute over the crib! Like my little sleeping Prince/tiger (depending on the day) and might do some bunting banners in the room too

 

[mdscpa]

That looks cute Cheryl wonder how your nursery's gonna look like...

 

[aidensmommy1]

Wow Cheryl, u reallyyy had high betas! And knowing that has definitely made me feel even better about it being just one really strong LO . Thank you for that!

Aww, I love that painting your doing above the crib! I cant wait to see your nursery when its completely done. Its going to be one amazing nursery!

ugh! That site just KNEW I was waiting today and wanted to make me wait even longer to see my ticker at 5 weeks ...lol.

 

[mdscpa]

Oh, Mary, FX you get to see it tomorrow as it will stay unchanged for 6 more days. But 1 day is a torture!!!!

 

[aidensmommy1]

Lol, yes it is!

 

[Twinsie]

Mary- I'm Jamie!! I know I was on the other thread for a bit but then mainly here so I don't know if you ever caught my name. I am a fraternal twin and was in my own sac. I also was told at 7.5 weeks there were two heartbeats but then two weeks later only one. So one of my babies wasn't healthy enough.. I'm blessed with one healthy baby and am happy and at peace with it but I'm just mentioning bcuz I think you shouldn't worry so much about possible twins. Your body can handle it, unless the baby isn't healthy and then god will take care of it. I felt better that I wouldn't have an unhealthy baby so i was at peace with losing twin B. We can just pray for good things no matter how that ends up. Everything works out

Cheryl- love that for the nursery ! Can you tell your client your due date so they tell you their needs ASAP??

Daphne- glad bp is better! Yay for ml soon! I hope you stay around after Adam is born! Well miss you!! Although I'm sure you'll be busy!

Pam- so sorry about your coworkers being needy! They better leave you alone after Friday!! 2 more days!!

J- would you go with oh or stay home this wknd?

Kenna- omg so exciting!!!!! I got so excited for you reading your post! Soon!!!

Soon for 4 of you!!! I can't handle the excitement!

 

[mdscpa]

Aww Jamie. I'll surely stay. With weekly birth after Adam is born that i cannot miss... Plus, like we always say on the other thread, together until WE ALL give birth.

 

[aidensmommy1]

Thank you Jamie for your kind words! I wouldn't mind twins and I think my body could handle it, its more the babies the RE & I would be worried about but I think everything will work out great! . Like you said, your a twin. And my fathers a twin and so wasn't his mother and back then, they didn't even really know until birth & weren't aware of risks but healthy twin births happened every day, like they still do! . I just didn't realize how much risk to the baby there was until meeting with all the IVF specialists. I guess risks are much higher in IVF pregnancies too and they don't really know why. Like I said tho, I do have faith that everything will work out no matter how many babies are in there! I truly do think its 1 baby in there so I'm not too worried about it anyways. Itd just be a shock to find out our 1 embryo transferred split. Thank goodness they didn't put back 2 or I'd be realllyy worried! LOL
