Jen, I hadn't puked water until this morning. Think the morning part had something to do with it. I normally just vomit bile in the mornings. I need to start my Zantac again. My acid reflux is getting out of control!
I will definitely look into those pillows. Can you get them at Babies R Us? We have a Babies R Us nearby.
Aw your little girl is being stubborn. She likes your womb. She knows the womb! She will mosey on out soon enough

Amy, you won't completely relax. We never do and this is ok! We are just anxious for our LOs! We love em so much already

Impatient, I understand. I hope that you get another BFP soon!

Jessica, update us on you!

My cat is being all soft and snuggly right now which is a nice change from the ugly brat that he has been for the last few days. He gets downright obnoxious when DH is away because I don't play fight with him like his dad will.
He is getting a bath tomorrow.

Bethany ~ I ordered my pillow from amazon. Looking at the pillow, it does take up a lot of room...depending on the size of your bed you should be fine, or you get to be super close with your DH

Yay for Friday!
Thanks for all the support and happy to read such great things happening. Because I am somewhat confused would anyone mind filling me in on how far along you are and little bit about your journeys?
Last couple days have been up and down for me. I know this may or may not be the right forum but I will mention some of what is going on because it is related. I think I am getting my cycle soon which is great but making me back to emotional ( I'm getting those pimple warning signs too!). Making me just think more than I want to. Because of my pain ( pelvic floor & volvydinia ( sp?) I was so worried about conceiving in the first place. Now that I am back to square one and we are DTD again the pain is back along with the emotional worry. I've been through a few years of PT, trigger injections etc and I don't know if the D and C made anything different. The biggest thing is my emotions related to DTD in general which makes trying to conceive so much harder. My brain just will not quiet down about it. On top of that I realize that this would have been the end of my first trimester and about a month since miscarriage started. Having lots of emotions and finding it tough.

 

[mommylov]

I totally know what you mean. Its tough to jump right back into things like normal. BD was something hard for me to do after the losses too. We have a variety of situations here but we all started in the same way in that we all had a loss. For me, I got pregnant naturally and fast both times. The first time we went in for a scan and I was suppose to be 10 weeks and I was only measuring 8 and the baby had no heartbeat. Then with my second I tested + but my dr kept running the wrong blood tests and told me I wasnt pregnant. Ended up in the ER where they confirmed it and changed drs to the one Ihave now that day. They tested my progesterone levels and it was low so they gave me Crinone but it was too late. I ended up mc a week later at about 5 weeks. Now Im about 6 weeks along and **knock on wood** so far so good.

It does get easier as far as coping with the loss with time but the worry doesnt go away. Being PAL is very different then being pregnant without loss. Its almost like our innocence has been taken so we worry the whole first tri and then some. we will be here if you need supprt so dont think you are alone. These girls have been an amazing source for support for me. I have learned so much from them and thier experiences as well and dont think I would be where I am today. you will make it through this and we'll help you along the way if you need it

Angel, we have a queen. I think we need a king size bed lol! So how close is your nursery to being complete?

Jen, I am sending you labor vibes! Time for baby to make an appearance so that you can smell her baby smell and kiss her soft skin

Amy, when you get far enough along you may want to invest in a doppler too for extra reassurance we will always worry and be huge mama bears even when our children are in school
Gosh, your scan is right around the corner!

Leslie, it is such a roller coaster when TTC after a loss, I can't imagine what you have to go through with your added issues. The volvydinia, is that where sex is painful because you are tight? You poor thing
There are good days and bad days. Sometimes I felt like I had grieved and healed and then I was sad again. Do you have any pets? I don't know what some of us would have done without our fur babies. They are there for mothering. And we definitely still want to mother and be acknowledged as mothers. That is one hard thing about loss...sometimes only you really grasp what you lost. And it hurts.

My story in a nutshell is that I didn't get a scan until I was 10 weeks and my baby measured 6. I started to miscarry naturally at 12 weeks but ended up with a D&C. I still get upset with my body for not knowing for 6 weeks that my baby had died
I suffered from UTIs and a kidney infection while I was TTC. It took forever before a doctor cultured my urine and said that it was probably the same infection all along and that I had gotten it in the hospital during my D&C because it was antibiotic resistant. I finally managed to kick it and 9 months after losing my baby, a year after I got that first positive...I got my BFP. I am now 17 weeks along I have a clotting disorder and am on blood thinners, which I started immediately. I really think that helped.


Ladies, I got a call from the maternal fetal specialist. I go in for genetic counseling and a scan on the 12th. I am so excited and hope they can and will tell me if I am team pink or blue.

 

[mommylov]

Eeeeeeeeeekkk!!! I cant wait to find out!!! Which are you rooting for? I know that we all just want healthy babies but just curious if you and/or your hubby are more pink or blue.

 

[Storked]

Well Amy, I kind of want a girl and my husband kind of wants a boy
Our families are the same. His hopes for boys and mine hopes girl!

 

[Storked]

Guess who is wet and pissy? THIS GUY!

[mommylov]

hahahahhahahahhah!!! Poor guy but he looks so handsome and clean!

 

[Storked]

You know, he normally seethes quietly but he let out two angry howls this time. He felt like there was injustice!

There wasn't. And his fur will be so soft and nice smelling

 

[xoxo4angel]

Leslie Those ups and downs are all too familiar to us. I second what Amy and Bethany have said about TTC after a loss. Hang in there and feel free to vent or ask questions here

My journey: I found myself turning to my cyber family (aka this thread) after my 2nd loss. DH and I fell pg first try, but sadly it ended in a natural mc around 5w After 2 cycles fell pregnant again and won what my Dr called a bad lottery, it ended as a mmc 7+ weeks treated by a D&C for genetic testing I'm 37 years old and am now 28 weeks pregnant with a boy Nothing wrong with chasing that rainbow!

Bethany ~ We have a Cali King, plenty of room for my huge body pillow! Yay for a scan on the 12th!

Jen ~ Zoey must be quite comfy....hope you're bouncing on that yoga ball!

Amy ~

I have everything in waiting for nursery...carpet installers aren't here yet, so we'll put the furniture in tomorrow (we've a function tonight to go to). The personalized train decal should be in next week.

 

[mommylov]

hahah awwwww!

mine are great about keeping clean but I love it when they get groomed. I feel like they look 10X thinner because of all the extra hair they get out. My little monkies shed SOOO much!

 

[mommylov]

Youll have to show us pics once its done Angel. Sounds so cute!

 

[xoxo4angel]

I will

 

[Storked]

Amy, he doesn't shed a ton but I think it is because of his baths once a month and I give him treats for his coat. Mostly I try to prevent hairballs. He has never puked but he has made gagging sounds before which scared me :O he doesn't do that anymore though. They do look tiny after they have been cleaned!

Angel, we will need pictures! Did you have a specific theme?

 

[mommylov]

mine didnt throw up until recently. Now we go into the basement and every once in a while find a little surprise... *yuck*. Luckily we havnt finished our basement so its just all concrete down there right now.

 

[Storked]

Amy, do you have a Petco or Petsmart nearby? They have these little bags of treats and some are for preventing hairballs. More of a treat for us really but luckily cats love em! You may look into that! They also sell tubes of stuff at Walmart but my cat hates it when I smear it on his paws
