Went on to hospital cause I'm high risk doc said go in sat for 4 hours in emergency but drank water just incase they were going to do ultrasound. They put me in a back room and closed the door and the nurse told me to take my shirt and bra off and put a gown on just incase they had to take me to surgery right away! Way to freak a girl put! Cutest doc comes in good thing I like the darkies lol. He had a little sit down chat with me and then did an ultrasound baby is good! Heart beat and good movement. So yay!

great news hun

 

[magrace]

He also said the chance of me miscarrying now by how far along I am and how good the baby looks is about 3 % so yay to that also!

Also talked to my mum, she said my grandmother was really sick with girls, and not sick with boys and it seems my sisters and my cousins are the same so lets pray for a boy!!!

Magrace, I'm glad everything is okay! Did he give a reason for the spotting?

So about a month or 2 ago I downloaded an app on my phone for my pregnancy, to keep up with how far along I am. It was the babycenter app. It gives you daily thoughts on your pregnancy, which I thought was cool. It also connects you to a community of other woman that are due the same month as you. For example, the community I'm in is called August 2012 Birth club since I'm due in August. Anyway, I didn't really write any posts there, just browsing through the threads that other woman wrote. Let me tell you...those woman are so RUDE and CATTY! Always at each others throats for something. And apparently there is no moderator or anyone watching these threads at all. It just makes me so mad that sometimes the only way someone can feel better about them-self is to put someone else down. If you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all. lol

Okay ladies, rant over! Just wanted to say that I'm grateful for the support I get here and I'm glad you aren't like that!

amber i know what you mean i have seen it omg if you dont believe the same thing they do they are all over you

 

[cherrished]

Awww well done hun just take it easy and rest brilliant news massive congrats xx

 

[cherrished]

What you think girls can ne 1 tweak looks like a bfn too me x

 

[chika10blue]

Stacey, you're right. If you don't have the same exact opinion, they will rip you a new one. Especially on inductions. If anyone asks anything about being induced, even if they are full term, these woman go crazy! I gave them a piece of my mind last night and left. I doubt I'll go back.

Cherrished, I tried to tweak but I'm not sure I'm seeing anything. Sorry hun.

 

[staceyj83]

oh my m/s is starting yay makes me feel a little better

 

[AndreaFlorida]

[AndreaFlorida]

[staceyj83]

wow andreathat is crazy fast working body you have there

 

[chika10blue]

26 days...unless she comes on her own then it could be sooner. And now I'm freaking that maybe I don't have all her stuff ready! I might have said this before but could ya'll name off newborn stuff that you need when she is born. I just want a check list that I can go through and check off.

Andrea, is it possible the BC pills caused the positive opk?
