Hello everyone!!!! Sorry I haven't been posting much lately.

Devi my nausia has gone now too since about the end of last week. Not quite as tired as before mostly but feel knackered today as my youngest had me up 3 times last night! Like having a newborn all over again! Lol

Also feel like I can eat more foods than before but still need to stick to what I fancy iykwim!

How is everyone else? Mommymichele..... Haven't heard from you in ages?

I have a fetal Doppler but as yet, have been unable to detect anything other than my own heart beat! I get a kinda whooshing sound too which I am told is probably the placenta??! Anyone got any tips on how best I might detect it?
 
My symptoms seem to be getting WORSE! earlier this week I finally thought my bbs were going to go down to a dull ache and now today they are twice as bad as they were last week! And I made Tacos for lunch because I had a friend coming over and i got them all made and everything set out and pretty and realized that if I kept looking at them I was going to be sick! No tacos for me!! :cry: how sad is that? Now I'm eating Pineapple chunks! but I'm still hungry. I had half a turkey sandwitch! Melissa (my friend) says that I seem to be having a problem with protein! lmao how sucky is that! Good thing I think I could be a carbatarian if I had too and who gets sick eating bread?!?! NOT ME!

I'm glad your symptoms are getting better Devi and Tink!!!! Yay for you!

I have a few questions!

helpfull, harmfull or neither:

Hot showers, hair spray, scented lotions, steaks that are still pink in the center, cleaners that don't have bleach in them, Pools that have chlorine in them, and sex! (I'm way worried about the sex!)

Obgyn vs. family practitioner (i'm in a small town... and we don't have a lot of options as far as obgyns)

Seat belts!!! Is anyone else freaking out that seatbelts cross right over your babys?!?!?!? NOT WORTH IT if its a fender bender! I'll take the dang ticket!

Thanks for the advice!
 
Clarenicole..... None of the things you have listed are dangerous so long as the shower isn't scolding hot and you don't breathe the fumes of cleanng products and hairspray etc into your lungs too deeply. Keep rooms well ventilated whist usng them. Sex should be fine so long as it's not too rough! Lol However, my sex drive is non-existent ATM! But I do have an assortment of sexy dreams! Lol

With regard to the seatbelt question.... Google it as there are sme great products on the Market at reasonable prices which reposition the seat belt so t does not cut into your lower abdomen.

Hope this helps! Bloody steak is fine as far as I am aware!!!
 
EEKS!!! I finally got my doc appt set up! My hubby and I have been waiting for Tricare to kick in because he got dropped from his orders for a day and then he has to start his 30 days all over again so as of March 5th we'll have tricare! So he talked to the women in his unit that have kids and they told him who and what and where so My appt is March 23rd at 3pm and its with Dr. Susan (get ready for this) Dunlap :lmao: DUNLAP! My Obgyn is going to be dr. dunlap!!! LMAO Like my belly Dunlapped my pants! I think I could pee myself i'm laughing so hard about it! But apparently shes the best and she was booked all the way through the end of April untill I told the receptionist I was army wife and preggers then she found a cancelation for me! YAY! So thats exciting! I think she'll prob do a scan too because she'll want to know how far I am and since I wasn't keeping good track of my numbers... I think i can talk her into it! lmao! YAY!
 
Hey Tink and Devi, so glad that the nausea has gone away - now you can really enjoy being pregnant!

ClaireNicole - those are some really good questions. I would go with obgyn rather than a GP if it's possible, I think they specialise more in deliveries, but having said that, I've never lived in the USA, so I could be wrong!

Everything on there is fine. Eat a rare steak if you want one! You kill the nutrients if you cook it all the way through.
Sex is ok but if it's uncomfortable, stop. Don't be surprised if you spot after. Some do, some don't. Your cervix is very soft right now.
Cleaners, get a steamer. Haan hand held you can order from walmart.com and a shark steam mop you can pick up at walmart. Get both.

Pools are fine. Hot tubs, hot showers, and tanning beds are a big NO! they raise your body temp.

Seat belts. WEAR IT! It is not going to hurt you or your baby. Don't care if you like this or not but personally, you don't wear one, your an idiot. That's pretty much like not putting your baby in a car seat.

We tell the girls to stay off google because they go look up everything under the sun and then freak out about every little thing. If you have a question or a concern, it's best to ask your Dr, not google.
 
I went to the bookstore today and bought "What to Expect When Expecting" - so excited :)

Hon, don't you worry, you'll be cracking that book out soon!! :)
 
My Dr gave me that book, most do now, it's a courtesy thing.
 
wow, Michele, that's nice your doc gave you the book, I think that's quite unusual! Here you get a print out of basics, but that's it. Congrats on the 8 weeks!
 
yes I would, it's a great baby bible - it costs about US$20. I've just downloaded the iphone free app as well, very cool!
