Ferrals - All the best for the ultrasound Tomorrow. Hope you get the good news, see the healthy bubba and peace of mind.
Would be anxiously waiting to hear the good news from you dear. Trust God, everything is going to be fine...
Sending lots of wishes and prayers on your and bubba's way.
All the best for the Scan.
Love and wishes, Ric xx
ferrals - omg that came around quickly (maybe not for you) but will be thinking of you tomorrow and will have everything crossed as much as I can that the results are awesome and your lil one gets the all clear
Ferrals - You don't have to apologize for any 'youness'. I have everything crossed for a good result for you, hun. Best of luck for tomorrow and I'm sending you some sleepy vibes for tonight so you can get some much needed rest.
Ferrals I have everything crossed for you your scan will be perfect. Your NT was great so that was a fabulous sign. I have a strong feeling everything is perfect with your bubba. I hope you get some rest tonight.
I had my NT scan today. Measurement was 1.7mm which is within the normal range. Won't get the official result for another 2weeks at my Ob appointment. The sonographer said they can see alot of major problems at the NT and things they find at the morpholigy scan are less severe if they see anything different to what one would expect. She told me that after I told her I will still be concern about the morph scan. She said try not to worry as if they were to find something then when everything looks perfect at the NT scan its usually fixable. FX she is right.
Guess i better come out from under my rock :redface:
Been to scared to post in here in case something went wrong but all seems good so far just holding my breath for my scan in two weeks eekkkkk and been hanging around in the ttc thread which seems to have upset people so here i am :D
Okay wasn't as scary as i thought im glad to see some familiar faces in here
Thanks Forshelby for inviting me over you are awesome!
hi girls!
Thank you all for the very warm welcome... have been 'umming and aghing' as to whether to have a ticker yet but have reluctantly taken the plunge ... and its very exciting after having an ovulation one for a while!
I had my BT today and hcg is at 267, we are very relieved as the nurse said she they would expect it to be about 100 so we seem to have a strong little one at the moment! We have our 6wk scan booked in for Thurs, 21 Oct so praying that everything is well with our little darling.
sorry no persies, just getting to know everyone and what they have going on...
Ferrals - sending lots of love & strength for tomorrow, nothing i can say to put your mind at ease but im praying so so much that your beautiful baby is healthy. i look forward to reading your happy news tomorrow and you will be breathing a little easier xx
Mildez - I'm a bit confused... did she find something abnormal or was she being hypothetical. Sorry... I think I'm having a baby brain episode. I hope your results come back all good at your ob appointment :)
Kellie - Welcome!!!!! So good to see you in here, hun. Not long now until your 12wk scan eeeeeep! And thank you for being so sweet, what a compliment. :)
T-Hopes - I know your bfp has been a long time coming, hun. It's great to see you in here at last.
I have been hiding under the same rock as kellbell :redface:
I have been quietly stalking this thread trying to get to know everyone and their stories but i have realised it will probably be a lot easier if im posting! :)
I know a few of u from the ttcaml thread.. so happy that we can all be together in here! :)
Am starting to feel very anxious about our 12 week scan next tues.. even tho i have been getting a look at bubs every 2 weeks at my ob. appointments.. that excitement i find only lasts about 3-4 days and then the fear takes over again until i get another look.. im hoping that as time goes on i will start feeling less scared.
I cant wait to get to know all u girls i havent already met! Hopefully its not too long til im doing persies! :)
Oh and t-hopes i LOVE ur ticker!! Gorgeous colour!
xx
T-hopes, awesome news on your hcg levels! That is bloody brilliant!
Ferrals - good luck tomorrow. I have some hideous bright green alligator slippers if you want them ;)
Reet - welcome! You should have been here before... This is the best place for it :D
AFM - My belly is bouncing around. Baby is head down and having a grand old time, although appears to be posterior. Bummer. Had a great nap today, and made a massive pot of soup.
Ferrals i know with the time difference were i live and everyone else does is a big one i hope that you see this before you have to go in. Good luck i have been praying so hard for you. I also wish that the love would keep them safe. But think postive ( yeah i know i have to take my own words).
reetgood luck with the 12 weeks scan.
Mildez - NT thickness sounds good. Good luck with the bloods to match.
Kellbell - oooh. I'm glad you are back, no matter how scared you are. We get so superstitious about entering into the 'I'm actually pregnant' phase. Don't want to jinx ourselves. I know I was just the same. I still reckon nothing can take about the nerves, the anxiety, and the waiting (not much help am I? :lol: ), except 'time' as you count the milestones. Sorry they got a bit upset in the TTC thread? OUch. I think it was them telling you it is OK to come over.
T-hopes - love the ticker, so colourful. WooHoo for the blood test results.
Ferrals - sleeeeep well tonight. zzzzzz Bubs wants Mum to relax. :) GL for tomorrow. FX
Dory, Milly5 and HopeLovePositive - miss you, are you guys in the baby threads now?
Audax - 32 weeks, you are really sneaking into the zone. Is posterior position an issue at this stage?
Reet - Hi and welcome. Already 11 weeks along the way, you've been holding back.
AFM - Incububs has been quiet today, I felt extra tired and had a nap after being out today. I think he/she is going through a growth spurt. hey, and I think I feel a little more comfortable today getting ready for our morph scan on Monday and finding out gender. We have decided to find out for ourselves, but then just lie to everyone, that we couldn't find out. I've had so many questions lately, are you going to find out if it's a boy or girl?, getting rather sick of it. But will of course tell you guys.
Warning, TMI. and Oh My, did my whole uterus go into a big tight ball after BD the other day. Whoooops!! Gosh, I hope that's OK/normal. Eeeek, there's a baby in there. And BD dreams to match,,, I'm making up for all sorry a*se times in the 1st trimester. I felt exactly how big my uterus was, just measuring about 1 finger width below my belly button.
Hello ladies, I thought I will join you here, although I am still nervous.
My story is: 43 years old, M/C, baby, M/C, pregnant again. I am not making any long-term plans, as the MC rate at my age is something like 50%. However, I decided that no matter how it turns out, I am just going to try to enjoy this pregnancy. I got my BFP only at about 15 DPO, is kind of late, and usually means problems. However, for the past few days I have been getting rather strong symptoms, my boobs are killing me, I am feeling nausated and hungry at the same time and I feel very hot.
Here, in the US, they do not give you the BTs and "we see our patients between 8 and 9 weeks only". I had to plead with the receptionist that my case is special, so I have my first scan booked on the 21st, but I will not relax until I get the CVS results. At my age, even when you see a h/b, the risk of M/C does not go down that much. I saw the h/b at 6 weeks last time and still the baby died. Sorry if this sounds a bit depressing, but I guess I am trying to protect my heart a bit.
T-Hopes - hello, I had a feelilng I'll see you here :0)
Hi Luna-- and welcome! I understand where you are coming from...my story is somewhat similar. I plead with the in-vitro people to keep me a little longer as a patient because of my missed miscarriage at 11 weeks. But there is hope! I am now at 16 weeks...and still praying.... I didn't have CVS (I know, scary, given my age) but, in my case, it wasn't recommended given my NT results being better than expected. Best wishes to you for successful pregnancy.
Hello, all you fine ladies, I am sorry that this is quick... I have an appointment on Friday and am jumping out of my skin, as I am still anxious (more today, for some reason). I just want to know that all is well. Can't feel movement yet, and they say I won't until probably 20 weeks. Yikes! My DH told me that we should have rented a doppler. Please, please, please, let this pregnancy continue healthy and well!!! I accidentally (and unknowingly) ate something that I shouldn't have in a restaurant; we sent it back to the kitchen (there is a first time for everything). Even though it was "steaming" -- the beef was GREEN, irridescent. Gasp! Came home and looked up the issue on the net, found a couple of things, that included that sometimes heated, cut beef gets a greenish cast...but is safe-- YEAH, right! I don't want GREEN MEAT. My DH was going to call the health department. I only took a couple bites before I realized it, but oh-my-God, I didn't need this! There wasn't a funky taste, just this weird color.
Thanks for letting me share my stress.
Forshelby we were talking hypothetical. Sorry about the confusion I probably didn't explain myself very well.
T-Hopes lovely ticker and fantastic HCG results. I'm super excited for you.
Welcome to the ladies coming out from under their rocks lol and Luna.
Anyway just a short one from me before I go to work just wanted to wish Ferrals the very best for todays scan. I won't be home until tonight but praying with everything I have I'll be reading your fabulous news about how well your bub is doing.
Just wanting to with ferrals the best best best of luck ever today xo
T-HOPES!!! MWA! So good to see you here babe. Hcg results sound awesome xo
Mildez: So glad the NT scan went well, it's a really good sign. You'll see a perfect little baby at the morph scan in 8 weeks :)
Sunshine and stars: Ack! Green meat! Glad to know it was safe, but still, green!
Luna: I understand the need to protect, we'll be hopeful for you :) Welcome!
Timeforafamily: That's a braxton hicks contraction, I get them after BD'ing too. Yep, hot right? Nothing to worry about :)
Audax: I have the very best making soup intentions, but I suspect it will turn into napping.
AFM: Well I'm sick at the moment, nothing major, just a bit of a cold, it does make my already sapped energy levels even more sapped though. Have exams next week so I've been studying heaps. Tiger is just fine :) Lots of crazy wriggles and movements, I was reading last night with the book on my belly and he kept kicking the book so I kept losing my place! Hospy appt tomorrow, eep!
Hi to Reet and Kellbell!
just popping to say i am thinking of you ferrals.. i hope everything is perfect!
wishing you all the very best ferrals. fingers crossed for you. x
thinking of you ferrals xoxox
Ferrals - your in my thoughts, hope all is well xx
I'm thinking of you ferrals!!! Keeping my fingers crossed that everything will be absolutely perfect!!!
Hi everyone, just stopping in briefly, sorry I haven't been posting lately, but have been sick and super tired and by the time I finish what I need to do on FB I'm usually too tired to get on here.
afm - anyway, had my midwife appointment this morning. Went well, but the poor midwife tried for 20 minutes to find bub's heartbeat with the doppler and couldn't find it, and it was rather painful as she digging it in and it was pinching my skin and stretching my c-sec scar, so she had to get another midwife in and she found bub's heartbeat within 2 minutes. So amazing to be hearing it at only 15wks 2d!
Only thing I'm disappointed about is that I now have to wait until 22wks before I get my morphology scan and can find out if bub is pink or blue :( I was hoping it would only be 3 weeks until we found out, but now I have to wait 7 looooooong weeks!
Hope everyone else is doing ok :)
Reet - Yay! Welcome to paml!! :) I'm so jealous that you get to see bubs every 2 weeks. I haven't seen mine since 12wks, and am looking forward to our 20wk scan in a couple of weeks. (19w4d to be exact) For me, the anxiety really eased after the 12-13 week mark. I hope it's the same for you, too. I forget if I've asked you this before, but are you finding out the sex? I'm still voting blue for you. :)
Audax - Oh, soup... yum. I finally satisfied my craving for tomato soup today... just smelling it was enough to get me drooling LOL. So cute that your belly is bouncing around. Hopefully bubs moves out of that position though, what a rebel!
TFAF - It does get annoying having people constantly ask if you're finding out the sex. I keep getting lectured that I should find out because everyone does. I hardly think that's a good reason to change our minds.. lol. I would LOVE to find out, but I think this is a great time to learn patience, and to wait until the end. DP really has his heart set on the 'it's a....' moment. I'm going to have him announce the sex at the birth, so it'll be all very lovely and a moment we can remember forever. I can't wait to hear the sex of YOUR baby though.. hehehe I can live vicariously! I find the 'tight ball of uterus' thing has been happening since I was 7wks or so... at first it scared me but it happens all the time for me. (not that we DTD much these days.. longest dry spell was 6weeks!) Good luck with your scan, I'll be sitting on the edge of my seat waiting for the announcement. :)
Luna - Welcome! I don't think 15dpo is very late for a bfp to show..... I have confidence in this pg for you. it might take some time for you to feel safer, but until then, let us carry you through all the hard stuff. :) You protect yourself as best you can for as long as you need to hun, it's totally understandable. Good luck for your first u/s on the 21st. That's my mum's birthday, for the record. :)
Sunshine - I would have been panicky too after green beef...... you poor thing. You should be fine though, especially if you weren't sick afterwards or anything. I also would have sent it back to the kitchen and told them I do not like green eggs and ham, I do not like them, sam I am. *chuckle* I hope you feel some movement soon, I have a few flutters here and there but nothing regular and it's frustrating! Good luck for your appointment, of course.
Mildez - Oh, phew! I'm breathing a sigh of relief here. :)
Kit - LOL.... that's hilarious, your little tiger is definitely bouncing around in there! I hope your cold gets better soon. :)
Jenna - Ouch, poor you! What an experience with the hurty doppler. So glad you got to hear a hb though, I hope it made the hurties worth while. :) I hope the next 7 weeks flies for you.
Ferrals - Good luck, hun....... I hope everything turns out ok for you today!
AFM - Watching my little puppy dog take a nap on the clean towels (I know, I know... but he's soooooo cute) makes me want to snooze myself! I really should get some cleaning up done though...... Only 4 more days until we go to Melbourne. That snuck up on me! I'm going to be a nervous wreck away from my furbabies for a week. The cat is ok, I've left her before in someone elses care..... but I've never left my puppy dog..... I'll probably cry when it's time for us to go because I worry he'll be sad and think I've abandoned him. (He's a rescue dog). Especially since he's been so cute lately... putting his ear to my belly and then looking up at me as if to say 'what's going on in there?' I've started asking him 'where's the baby?' LOL
Hi ladies,
Just wanted to wish Ferrals luck with today's scan... I have everything crossed for you Hun, I do hope everything turns out well...
I am still lurking ladies, love watching your tickers get closer to D day :) .....
Welcome all the new ladies, it's great to see new blood joining the group, I get a little sad that I'm not posting in here anymore :-( I loved being pregnant, love being a Mummy too....
Belly Rubs to All xxx
Just popping in to see to if there was any news from ferrals yet. Hope all is going well. I'll check back in later on.
Hi girls thankyou so much for the well wishes i must say it has helped me cope.
Anyway so far there is no sign of any abnormalities bub looks normal and healthy the u/s tech said the heart is still a little small to see everything but so far it looks normal there were no extra fingers on the hands and the feet look normal to one was a little hard to see bub wouldnt stop figiting which is a good sign.
The little bugger wriggled and moved so it wasnt easy to have a look but she said the next scan on the 18th should be more accurate.
The bub was measuring a few days behind my 7 week u/s dates but she said there is always room for slight variations a millimeter or two can mean a few days on u/s so i am relieved.
We need to see the geneticist to be find out if its possible that bub can still have SLO without obvious abnormalities which is a scarey thought but we will cross that bridge when we get to it but for now we things are looking positive.
And they had a look at bubs bits and we have a little GIRL on the way Abbi has sent us her little sister.
Sorry for no persies i didnt get much sleep so i am off for a bath and will pop back in later.
HPL - Nice to hear from you! How's Audrey doing?
CONGRATULATIONS DEAR FERRALS FOR :cheer::cheer: PINK BUNDLE OF JOY [/SIZE]:cheer::cheer:.... That's true Abbi sent her little sister to you... I know, you would be a great mummy to her.
Thanks for sharing your wonderful news.
I am So Happy for you :happyforyou:
And glad that everything looks fine and Baby Dear is doin well.
Now, you can sleep and relax... It was a big day.
Take care,
Ric xxx
Ferrals i am soooo happy to hear your news!!
TimeforaFamily - Thanks for asking after me. I am in some sort of twilight zone! Not in a baby thread... still in all the loss threads, though not a lot of time to read and post! I am in belly buddies thread for first half of sept 10, which has turned into a parenting thread, but still 2 girls to get their bubs.
I miss you all and think of you often, just don't have a lot of time to myself at the mo. That's why only limited persies.
Kit - so glad to see little Tiger's 25 weeks now. That is awesome.
Ferrals - thinking of you and AWESOME news my sweet.
Luna - embrace this pregnancy ! I am so proud of you that you have joined this thread... it is a big step. I understand not making plans, but at least enjoy today. The rest will happen.
HLP - love to Audrey for me and hugs for you.
Mo4 - how are you going? I think anyone who has more than one child is amazing! Until I walked this parenting path I had no real idea. So I just wanted to let you know, I think you are amazing!
Belly rubs to all... like HLP- I really do miss being pregnant - but not the symptoms of pre-eclampsia and hellp syndrome that I had right at the end.
I am going to try and catch some zzz's... precious commodity around here! Some days are harder than I could have ever imagined and I was pretty realistic I thought. Sleep disruption and depriviation are probably things you can't prepare for nor the sheer helplessness I feel at times. But right now I am feeling good, so as I did with the 9 long months before this, I am just going to be happy in this moment. Embrace it while I can, cause no doubt tomorrow there will be more tears, from both of us!
Reet we were in TTC together and sadly lost out bubbas a few days apart! :welcome::
:welcome::
Its totally normal! Its just a BH. You can find baby is very active too after BD! They say baby likes the massage that an organsim give the uterus! Nice hey :lol::
:welcome::
A little girl... Thats so lovely! Congrats the scan went well! Even better when the next one does too!:
:hello: everyone!
Thanks for the warm welcome girls you are all lovely :redface:
Thanks everyone for the lovely welcome! I feel like this is my new home already.
Ferrals- Oh what fantastic news!! And a gorgeous little girl! Congratulations!!! It sounds to me like everything is going to be perfect.. so happy for u and ur dh. Are ur sons a little more excited now??
Dory- Its so nice to get an update from u! Im not sure if i want to hear that parenting isnt all rainbows and butterflies tho.. guess ill be finding out what its really all about soon enough! :) how long has ur dh got off work?? Take care of urselves xx
Forshelby- Nope not going to find out sex.. it will be super tempting but im going to try and learn patience like u :) I just cant imagine not getting that surprise at the end.. and also i dont want my mum, sisters and dhs family to go crazy buying baby clothes before its born.. they wont be able to do that since they wont know what im having! U go to melbourne soon.. woohoo!! How long are u going for?? Its always so nice getting away.. and atleast the flight wont be too long for u.. i hate long flights!
Jennajayen- Oh i thought the tiredness was meant to start settling down by the 4th month.. bugger! Why do u have to wait til 22 weeks now?? Why not 20??
Kit- Reading ur post made me so excited! I cant wait to feel our little baby kicking around.. it will be so good! :) Good luck at appointment tomoro!
Mildez- Hi fellow bb! :)
Tegam- so lovely to know that our little baby is getting some pleasure from us bding! haha a lovely massage.. lucky little thing!
Sunshine and stars- Oh that green meat sounds disgusting!!! Glad u sent it back! I hope ur appointment on friday goes well.. im sure everything is going just perfectly!
Timeforafamily- Im so glad that u brought up that tightening of the uterus! Mine has been doing it too! It scared me at first but now whenever it happens i love it cos u can feel exactly where it is so much better and how close to ur bellybutton etc it is! :) i love feeling my little bump!
Audax- Ur edd is fast approaching!! Its next month! Exciting! Are u all prepared?? Or as prepared as u can be? ;)
Angelfish- Thanks for wishing me luck! Im so scared!
Hello to everyone else too! I cant go back any further to see who else has posted lately..sorry!
AFM- Not much going on here.. just counting down the days til my scan..6 to go!!
Did anyone else have bloating from early pregnancy that just didnt end up going away and eventually turned into a baby belly??! I think ive gotta face that this tummy of mine isnt going anywhere.. i have been very constipated (tmi!!) for a few weeks now but in the last couple days ive been having lots of fruit etc so ive been going to the toilet more but the bloatedness isnt going away! I dont like it! I want my flat tummy back or for it to be the baby making it big! :) i saw my mum yesterday and she told me that its normal for ur tummy to be like this.. that this is the start of a pg tummy.. but i dont get it! I can feel my bump way down lower.. this is a pot belly i have here! Oh i dont know.. guess i just gotta accept that my body is changing :)
Nite nite all xxx
Ferrals i am so happy for you. A girl i swear that there is a girl thing going around most people who i know who are pregnate are having lil girls.
Reet i understand about the nervous trust me i do. I hope the time flys by for your next scan.
AFM i cant belive i have made it to 22 weeks time is flying by so far ever since i hit the 20th week. My B/F brought back the craddle from his parents house which everytime i look at it i still cant belive it that in feb it will be filled. I have a dr appt next tuesday my just to make sure everything is okay i drede going in there becosue my belly is barley showing and i dont feel that the uturs is were is suppost to be
girls, I think it is over for me :cry: I just started spotting, and my lower back is hurting.
Oh no, Luna,-- I hope that this is just a little spotting. I am thinking of you, hon, and praying that you and the bub are okay.
Luna-I hope it's just a little spotting because bub is snuggling in my thoughts are with you.
Reet-yes the boys are a little excited i told them we still have a little way to go to make sure they don't find any problems and i need to speak to the geneticist about the chance of bub still having SLO with no obvious signs but for now we are cautiously happy although my youngest son said he wanted a boy lol.
We still wont tell my DH daughter until after the 18th when we have a better idea because she is to fragile and wont cope if it goes bad.
Angelfish-I agree it's a girl phase at the moment when we lost Abbi 14 boys were born around me and now the girls are catching up.
AFM-I slept a lot better and am a little more confident although i keep expecting something bad to happen i just want to get through this next scan and hope the genetcist tells us the chance of bub still having SLO is very unlikely that is what i want to here.OMG! I'M HAVING ANOTHER GIRL.
Ferrals I am so pleased to hear everything is looking fabulous so far woohoo and huge CONGRATULATIONS on expecting a little sister for Abbi and your 3 son's.
Luna I am praying for you its just a little implant spotting as bub digs in nicely.
BBL I can only see the last 2 posts.
ferrals - yay on such good news and on your lil bundle being a girl - Abbie has been looking out for you all this time and she will continue. Here's hoping the 18th comes round fast so that you can see your lil munchkin again
Hi to all our newbies and to everyone else
xoxox
Ferrals - Oh a little GIRL!!!! That's so lovely. I'm so pleased things are looking positive, I hope you can rest a little easier now hun. :)
Dory - It's always great to hear from you.... I hope the sleep deprivation phase passes quickly. You're right though there really is no preparing for it, no matter how realistic you are. :) Sounds like you're a wonderful mother though, just as I knew you would be.
Reet - We leave for melbourne on Monday for a whole week. Yay! I'm looking forward to some cooler weather! I think it's cool that you aren't finding out the sex, now we can be surprise buddies.. lol. :) My mum has already been sussing out all the cute outfits she can buy.. hehe. My baby bump started to grow around the 11 week mark.. it started as bloatedness, and then continued to grow and grow! Not long till your scan now, yay!
Angelfish - Wow time is flying. I think feb is a great month to be born, mostly because that's my birthday month.. lol. :) I hope your appointment goes well and you can rest easy!
Luna - Oh hun, I hope everything is ok. :( Put your feet up.
AFM - Stupid rain has made my austar go bye byes... :( Now I have to actually do something productive. Ok, off to get DP those beers he ordered. Hehehe :)
