Hi looney you found us wooohooo!!!

 

[armywife11]

Welcome to the board...!!

 

[armywife11]

New symptom today... HORRIBLE GAS! I want to burp so bad I cannot stand it! UGH! I have been doing everything they said but apparently my body has decided to revolt! All we have is regular tums and they make me gag.. kinda afraid to take them cause I don't want to throw up.

 

[wantanerd]

19 week appt tomorrow and will then schedule the anatomy scan. Hoping this doctor is better than the previous two. So I am a little nervous thanks to my previous two idiot doctors. Hoping tomorrow goes well and my anatomy scan comes early next week.

Thats exciting! Glad you like your doctor.

I don't get to see our baby till I am 10 weeks! I am hating this waiting game. I called yesterday to try and get in sooner and they bumped me up to an earlier hour...

 

[josephine3]

great for your good news updates ladies!! I thought that 1st tri finished at 12 weeks tho??!!

 

[wantanerd]

It depends who you ask josephine. I considered myself in the second trimester at the start of week 13. But most docs over in the US vary from 13-14 weeks being the start of the second trimester.

So I finally found a doctor I liked who listened to me and sorted out my due date which is officially June 7th. My 20 week ultrasound is next week but I got to see the baby today. He looks great and everything seems to be on schedule.

this is soooooo confusing! I am just going off what my pregnancy day by day book says. lol

 

[wantanerd]

I considered myself in the second trimester at 13 weeks since thats what the pregnancy due date ticker told me and I was ready to declare myself out of the first trimester. I am happy I am reaching the next milestone next week. I will be halfway through on Thursday thanks to my new due date.

The baby kicks during the day now and I know its a kick finally. I don't write these off as gas. Its a pretty cool feeling and lets me know everything is all right.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!!

 

[jmandrews]

oh wow i had no idea there was difference between weeks for entering the second tri. this is so confusing... haha i just asked my friend and she said 13 weeks is considered the 2nd tri so ill go with that

 

[likeaustralia]

Fertility friend says the 2nd tri starts in the 13th week, which is 12w0d - 12w6d. (confusing, I know!) I'm just happy to be a lime today.

 

[josephine3]

Wow a lime seems massive compared to my olive! guess my lil one has a lot of growing to do in the next couple of weeks!

An update from me - I've had my first midwife appt and she is considering me 10 weeks based on my LMP, however im pretty sure I didnt concieve till cd 21 so I am basing my dates a week behind hers! uness I ov'd way way early I dont see thier dates being right lol. I have gotta wait for a letter to tell me when my scan is - i cant wait!! I also got to wait to have my bloods done as I have to go to my chosen hospital for them as its out of the catchment area that the midwife can send them to. more waiting!!

 

[rosabelle]

Hi ladies! havent been on much lately, time is just flying by!
i have my 12 week scan on thursday and i am soo nervous! i am hoping everything is going smoothly
i finally have a noticeable hard little bump! yay!

 

[likeaustralia]

Feeling soooooo sick today. I vomited up saltine crackers this morning! Not fun. Trying to keep down some cheerios and sucking on a lollipop now...

 

[armywife11]

About 3 4 days ago was officially week 6 for me based on OV and my MS kicked in bad. So ill and its horrible. I haven't puked much which I am glad for but feeling like I want to is just as bad.

likeaustralia hope you feel better!

 

[likeaustralia]

Thanks armywife. This is the worst it has been for me. Usually if I eat a few crackers before getting out of bed, I'm perfectly fine for the rest of the day. Today though, I think i rushed it and didn't allow myself enough time to digest.. and they all came back up again. Blargh! I think I've been really lucky so far. I really feel for you ladies that are going through this every day for weeks!!

 

[wantanerd]

I was told to consume a ton of water (I drink over 75 ounces a day) and eat a little protein to reduce MS. I think the water really helped me to keep Ms away.

 

[likeaustralia]

Thanks wantanerd. I try to drink 64oz of water a day, but may have slacked some in that department over the long weekend. It's easier to do when I have the water bottle in front of me at work. I'm drinking some now!
