TTC #2 Cycle Day 1 7/16/13

[Sarah lo]

Aw great news sazzler! We'll have to get a look at your scan pic and decide what gender you're having. I was talking to a friend who has 2 boys last week and she was telling me that although she'd wanted one of each initially she wouldn't change a thing now because her boys are so close with each other and just as loving to their mum as girls would be.

That's so cute LO had the hiccups

Poor mum I bet she is stressed! Wow it feels like forever ago when we were first starting this thread and talking about your sister's terrible MS but actually it's not that long ago lol

Mmmmm Christmas cake!

 

[Sarah lo]

Ladies, I have scan pics!

It mostly went ok but they weren't able to check the heart and lips properly as baby was lying face down with a hand in the way. We tried all sorts to get him/her to move, prodding my tummy, coughing, getting up and walking around, drinking more water and at the end they even sent me to have a wee then tried again but still nothing! Every now and again we got a lazy little hand flick out of him/her as if they were trying to swat us away but no way they were turning over for us! Very lazy baby. Everyone in the family are now saying it must be a boy if its that lazy

He/she's probably still laid there now

So we have to go again next Wednesday!

The lady gave the pictures to us free of charge as they were so unclear and said we might be able to get a better one next week. But I think at least the profile one is pretty clear. Nice to get a freebie though, they're normally £3 a pop

 

[SazzleR]

Glad to hear it was ok, Sarah What a shame that you have to have an extra scan That's exactly how our baby was laid at the start of the scan. I can't understand how they can be comfy like that

My photobucket still isn't playing. Grrrr! Will try again tomorrow! Think I might need to re-install the app if not.

 

[Sarah lo]

Haha its a hard life I know! I'll just have to grin and bear it next week!

You wouldn't think it was cumfy lol but then Olivia often sleeps in that position on her front with her bum in the air.

I hope you get your photobucket sorted, i can't wait to see your pics!

 

[kylesmom]

Hooray! What a cute peanut!

I would be so happy to go back and get more scans and see my peanut again! Yahoo for you!

Sorry you couldn't get a clear picture. Such a cutie!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Sarah lo]

I know, there was me thinking i wouldn't get to see baby again until I give birth but instead we end up getting a bonus look next week, Yay!! the lady at the hospital kept apologising too like it was an inconvenience. I was like no really, its fine!

 

[kylesmom]

haha! Exactly! Oh darn, I HAVE TO COME back, inside you are doing a happy dance

Staying team yellow?

 

[Sarah lo]

Yes, still yellow very proud of myself for saying no when she asked if we wanted to know!

 

[SazzleR]

Let us know how your extra scan goes today, Sarah

I'm at home today with a poorly little mean. He's got a cough, cold & now diarrhoea as well Give us a break!

 

[kylesmom]

YES Sarah! Good luck today!!! Can't wait to hear

Sazzler is photobucket still not working?

 

[Sarah lo]

Aww poor rex! I hope he's feeling better soon. Livvy was off nursery with another cold the other day, poor thing.

The scan didn't go too well this morning. We're being referred to the heart specialist for another scan tomorrow

The baby was in another awkward position and refusing to move again (its GOT to be a boy if its that lazy lol). After ages of looking the ultrasound lady said she'd seen most of the heart and was happy with it but there's just one valve she's not sure about and couldn't quite get the angle to be sure it's ok so she wants a second opinion from the specialist at Middlesbrough hospital. They got us an appointment for tomorrow afternoon.

It probably sounds stupid but I feel really guilty, like of course I'm excited about the new baby but like I've been running around after Olivia and giving her all my attention and its like I've barely given any thought to the baby, sometimes its like I completely forget I'm pregnant and now poor baby might have something wrong with him/her

 

[kylesmom]

Oh Sarah i am so sorry Fingers crossed that this little bean twirls around the right way!

Lay upside down for a bit to get him/her to wiggle out of the awkward position he/she is in

So sorry for both your children being sicky Let's hope they get better quickly

 

[Sarah lo]

Lol thanks, I'll try standing on my head

Naughty baby!

 

[SazzleR]

Sarah. I'm sure it's just because baby was being awkward & in a funny position, not that there's anything wrong with their heart. Keeping everything crossed that that's the case.

 

[Sarah lo]

Hi girls, i have an update. it turns out baby WAS just being awkward and everything is absolutely fine! Whew!

What a roller coaster ride these pregnancies are turning out to be!

 

[kylesmom]

oh yay!!!!!! such great news!!!!!!!!!!
What a great day for you
Such a relief !!!

 

[Sarah lo]

I know, huge relief. As we were leaving the place, the doctor said "so you don't have to see me again" and I said "good, no offence!"

 

[SazzleR]

Yay!!! That's fab news, Sarah So pleased to hear everything is just fine

 

[Sarah lo]

Thanks sazzle

Kyles, just looking at your ticker- I can't believe you're 9 weeks along already! Where is the time going?!

 

[kylesmom]

Morning ladies
I know 9 weeks! So exciting,
had my first doctors appointment yesterday, all is well, we got to hear the heartbeat, I am in love, The doctor was AMAZING! I switched practices since having Kyle and these doctors are amazing. I had a c-section with kyle and wanted to know my options for a vbac. He was very informative, kind and so real. If this baby is over 8lbs which i am sure it will be since Kyle was 8lbs 6 oz than i will have to have a c-section. Oh well, I just want to make sure the baby and I are both healthy

I have to call today to schedule an ultrasound within the next week or so to see how far along i am in the pregnancy, due date as of now is July 14th
