How are you holding up?? I bet your getting a very nice bump now!!
 
Hi HAJ!! Nice to hear from you.... All seems to be well with me, losing some pregnancy symptoms this week has me slightly worried, but all in all I am ok... We are trying to hold out until the next scan on the 6th. I hope you are tuckered in nicely and preparing for this "Perfect Storm" headed to the East Coast....

Hi SKEET! Glad to hear you are doing well can't wait for that scan!

My book says typically around 10 weeks. I assume it could be longer.. not sure though.
 
Mrs mm.. I found from about 9-14 weeks symptoms would come and go.. Some days I felt amazing and others I couldn't lift my head with our being sick. Have you thought of investing in a Doppler?

Hi haj good to hear from u! Like skeet says i bet that double bump is really coming on now hehe.
Skeet im glad u are enjoying being pregnant, u kno i really miss it! And i never thought id say that at the end of third tri!

Thanks for the update Mrs MM im sorry i never have time to read ur journal... All u ladies need to post scan piccies too id love to see what the twins look like now!

Jm im confused about the periods too i guess it takes a while to sort out but i have bled for a couple of days really lightly, then nothing,then just 1 day randomly on its own quite heavy. So i dunno :shrug:
 
Jo- I am loving being preg!! I have my 20 week scan tomorrow so ill post a pic for sure!! I've been pretty good with my emotions too.. On Saturday I got a little upset because I couldn't zip up any of my hoodies anymore.. I could feel my eyes water up a but but was able to laugh it off.. Oh is pretty good at turning my upset ness into a joke and making me laugh so that helps. It's funny that when I do want to cry in my head I know it's hormones and I'm being silly yet the tears still come. I'm just happy I can laugh at myself and enjoy it. One of my friends is 2 weeks ahead of me and the poor thing is miserable and depressed. I feel so bad for her ..
 
I have a swaddle tip to share!

First off if your LO hates having their arms pinned down try folding them across the chest. Shockingly we swaddled for 6 hours last night and she allowed it!!

The sleeping is staying around 4 hours which to be honest I dont mind it because she nurses and helps keep engorgement down. Last week she was waking every two hours but I knew it wasn't regression finally caught her in the action and saw she was startling herself awake! We swaddled last night and got a 6 hour sleep out of her! We tried it the night before but she wouldn't let us (then we learned about the arm thing). Nursing has improved but shes still having horrid gas. We picked up some gripe water to try it appose to the gas drops it was about the same. We are just giving the drops more often to help her out and keeping her upright when awake if possible. I cut out dairy but not seeing any changes. I have been pumping to help get her closer to the hindmilk and that is helping some. Both my hubbys side and my side have stomach issues that do run in the family so going to bring it up at her 2 month appointment.

Hope everyone is doing good (I have been catching posts but not a lot of time to post back) and hope anyone on the US east coast is safe and warm!!!
 
Armywife we have swaddled since day one :) and she now sleeps through the night.. i am worried about when she starts rolling tho, because we will have to stop swaddling and i know she still startles herself aswell when asleep if not swaddled..
does anyone have any ideas on how to 'wean' off swaddling?

The nurses told us to roll blankets and put them under her to keep her from rolling over because from day one she liked sleeping on her side. We never did it though because she would keep her arm out to prevent herself from rolling over.
 
well just like me and Oh our lo is stubborn and is breach... looks like we are staying team :yellow: I didnt even get a pic because the tech couldnt really get a good pic of the baby due to the position it was in

Well team yellow is fun!
 
SKEET I think that is how I am or am going to be... assuming all is still going well in there. I have had really no symptoms for the last week, however, last night, I had the WORST nausea thus far. I mean all I could do was lay down on my side and hope... As for a doppler, YES, we are getting one. We were waiting until 2nd Trimester or at least this next appt on the 6th to order it just to make sure. I am sure that it will give us piece of mind as the long wait between U/S start. If all goes well at this 3rd scan, doc says the next scan won't be until January! No way we could wait!!!
 
Mrsmm- everything sounds like its going good., I know how freaky the changing symptoms can be, and to be honest the first little bit if 2nd tri is weird because you don't really look preg or feel preg and there aren't any scans until 20 weeks to confirm preg in your mind. I found the Doppler helped a lot with it.. I still listen to the hb !! It helped at my last appt because the nurse that was there was not the normal one and couldn't find the hb.. If I hadn't if found it right before I went I would have been terrified!!
 
Mrs MM, you are 11 weeks right now! Congrats! I took comfort in knowing once you make it to 11 weeks you have a 97% chance of making it to delivery. Hope all is well on the scan!
 
Hey ladies heres a pic of my 26 week bump!!!
