Rozzie, I hope yesterday went as well as it could have.
Katie, Anna is beautiful. I hope you keep posting updated photos.
Jo, have you taken a test yet? I know that you have a few days before AF is due but I usually have early positives. All except this pregnancy tested + 5 days before AF was due. I can't wait to hear the news.
My ultrasound went good. The edge of the placenta is right at my cervix. It could be causing the on and off bleeding. It looks like it is up high enough that it shouldn't be a problem in the future. The baby is measuring almost a week older than the first scan at 6 weeks and a couple days farther along than my 8 week scan. I guess that I am closer to 12 weeks now. So no signs of a problem there. I have had a problem with large functioning cysts on my ovaries in my other pregnancies and there isn't any at all this time around. It was nice to see a wiggly little baby not a tiny still seahorse.
ooooooooooooooooh thank you Katie, Anna is such a cutie. She looks so content and happy. You must be so in love with her!
Laney, I had no idea you had a scan coming up, or if I did I completely forgot. How wonderful that it all went well and at least you have some explanation for the bleeding to which is a relief. Roll on 12 week I say!!
Hi to everyone else. Jo?? Lan?? Don't keep us in suspense. Little Anna has used up all my suspense tolerance so I have none left for you 2 !!
Fantastic news on the U/S Laney, you must be relieved to see that little baby moving happily!
Katie, I am quite new here, but did follow your story towards the end of your pregnancy, such great news, congratulations on the birth of Anna, she is a beautiful little bundle.
Paula, have you had the ok to start TTC yet? We are thinking of trying from Jan. I have an OB appointment on Tuesday to check that my body has recovered and that we are ok to start trying when we're ready. We also have a geneticist appointment on Thursday to rule out that there is a genetic problem with DH & me, I think this is highly unlikely from initial discussions with OB & geneticist but definetly worth being sure. My OB has been in the game for 25 yrs & said he sees problems like ours once every 5-7 yrs, he thinks it was a random event or 'bad luck'.
Rozzie, how are you going, hope you are doing ok & that baby of yours is kicking away.
Oh my goodness, I just looked at baby Anna. Cluck, cluck, cluck!
Paula, I'll be able to test in 1.5 week's time but I've maintained my crazy lady status and decided that I'm pregnant. I've kind of felt little tugs around the lower ab area which I remember feeling with Hamish. We shall see anyway!
What about you Jo? Any signs?
Rozzie, I hope you're doing OK this weekend and that you're able to get away from everybody. Next Tues is a whole new phase, only three more sleeps.
Laney, congrats on your scan. Now I can see the bub in your u/s pic. How exciting that you can watch his/her development so closely.
Lan, if you think your PG then so do I, lets start a rumour, it will keep us busy for the next 1.5 weeks!!
Laney, I actually got the ok to start ttc in late August but then I had these thyroid/progesterone issues come up. We had already decided to wait till the end of the year anyway and thought it was a good idea to get all that right first. I'm glad I did because the more I find out about low progesterone, the more convinced I am that it has caused a lot, if not all, of my problems. My OB is completely unaware that this is all going on and I'm not sure how into it he would be. It sounds like an almost alternative treatment. My progesterone tested within the normal range but at the very low end. The real proof for me has been the last week where I would normally have shocking pms. Instead I have felt completely normal all week.
DH teases me because I have basically diagnosed myself (with the help of Dr Google) and had to use 2 GP's and a naturopath to get to the answer. Even then, they all turned out wrong! It just goes to show that we know our own bodies better than anyone else. DH is also amazed at this last week and cannot believe the difference. Here's hoping it continues.
