Pregnant Mommy Rollcall!

DramaMama06

Ladies- how are we all feeling? it's so exciting to hear some of us finding out about gender and even adding new moms to the list!

we find out gender May 1st, which is SO exciting! Dr's apt next week to find the actual EDD since there was some  question at the last visit.

 I've been getting dizzy spells where i feel light headed and color drains from my vision, so i'm interested to see what the dr has to say about that

 here's my 18 week pic! 1/2 way thorugh!!!

Nothing too exciting happening here. Had my first appointment last week, and it was kind of disappointing. The NP I saw completely dismissed my concerns about having severe PIH again this time and was just generally not helpful. I can't wait for the next appt when we see my actual OB - I know she's more concerned about things and will have a better plan than "we'll see. it probably won't happen again." Next appointment is on May 1st - we're having the NT scan and then my 12 week OB appt. Looking forward to another look at baby 2.0!

Still feeling crappy, but I'm in the home stretch of first tri. Counting down the weeks until I hopefully feel better again!

I'll come back and post my update after my 16 week appointment this afternoon!

LaRue86

Had my first OB appt on Wednesday. Not as far along as I though I was, but we got to see the baby and a strong HB. I am due 11/28. I will either have a c-section the day before Thanksgiving or the Tuesday after.

Still having crazy nausea. 

Dont go back for a month, but will probably have my friend do a quick u/s in a few weeks for another peak.

Hi pregnant mommies! Yay, I am on the list Im freaking out a little at the idea of 2U2 and 3 kids in general today but I am sure it will be a-okay. 

I called and left a message for my midwife this morning so hoping I can get an appointment soon and an ultrasound in a couple of weeks. I want to wait on the u/s until I am likely to see a HB so probably 7 weeks.  

Im debating what I should do about work. I live in Canada so I get a year off for mat leave so I have not gone back yet. I am set to go back June 1 which will put me at about 10-11 weeks I think and I normally wouldn't tell an employer that early but I am not sure if I should give them a heads up when I return that it will only be for 6 months and then I will be off again for another year. What do you ladies thing? Tell them right away or wait until I am back for a few weeks?

Not much to report here. My spotting stopped (yay!) and my betas looked good so everything is going ok so far! I have my first appointment next Tuesday and I am hopefully having an u/s to finally figure out my EDD. I have been feeling really sick lately pretty much all throughout the day and at night. The past few days have been better and Ive been able to eat more. So just keeping fingers crossed that it's a good sign that my hormone levels are high!

Still plugging along slowly in the first tri.  I have my first appt and dating u/s on Thursday so I should have more to report at next weeks check-in.  I have been feeling pretty well other than being exhausted. DS and DH both are sick with colds so it is wearing me out taking care of them.  A brief incidence of spotting last thurs had me super worried but so far everything seems fine.  I wonder if you spot more with subsequent pregnancies?  I'll have to ask my OB.  Hope all you ladies are doing well!!

PP, yes, I would definitely tell them early.

MH surprised me with a trip to Fetal Fotos on Friday and we found out that we are having a girl this time, so we have already started shopping. 

I am feeling a lot more movement everyday.  She is getting stronger and more active. 

It's crazy that more than half the pregnancy has gone by already.  It doesn't feel like it has been almost 4 months since I POAS already.

Can I join as well? I am pregnant with #3 due October 24th, exactly 16 months after my youngest, and I will have 3 under 3!

Congrats Fillier!

I have an Appt tomorrow, so nothing new to report here. Ive heard the HB on the Doppler at home since 9 weeks, but I'm excited to hear it at the Drs office, lol. It's validating to me since no U/S until the a/s at the end of June, boo.

My friend (I've talked about her a few times, that had IUD done about 2weeks ago. Also my boss) finds out in about an hour if her IUD took and if she's expecting... Uugggh I sure hope so! I'm praying for her!

I think I'm going to announce on FB sometime this week.

 Woohoo! congrats! you might want to PM mamarazzi528 so you can get on the list.

Congrats mrsfillier!  I added you to the list!

I'm 16 weeks.  Had a good appt. today and Baby #2 has a heartbeat of 145.  Funny enough, I had written down that Claire's heartbeat was 145 at my 16 week appt. with her.  Hmmm...    We're going team green, so this is about all I've got to go on.  haha.

Made my ultrasound appt for the end of May -- coincidentally on Claire's birthday.  So instead of giving birth that day this year, I'll be having an ultrasound.  Sounds a lot easier!

We had our a/s last wednesday. Baby looks healthy, measuring right on track and we are once again on TEAM PINK! I am excited that DD will have a little sister. I have 2 brothers and always wanted that sister bond. Although it freaks me out a bit because DH only has a brother so we really don't know what to expect from a sister/sister relationship. I also started to feel a lot of kicks last week and last night I was able to see them from the outside. She is turning out to be fiesty just like her sister.

 Mamarazzi - DD's hb and LO #2's hb were exactly the same for all of my appts so far. That doesn't really mean anything but I too found it interesting.

I just got back from my OB appointment and u/s and everything looks great!  All of the bleeding has stopped and the Dr. only saw a little bit left in the u/s, thank goodness.  

My NT Scan was scheduled for May 10 and I am super excited b/c I am going to the place in Houston that can tell you the gender early by doing a blood test!  I remember we were living in Dallas during my last pregnancy when MommaA117 had her blood test done and found out she was having a girl early on--I was so jealous.  Since then we've moved to the Houston area, so now I can do it too!  

I'm having some serious nausea off and on throughout the day accompanied by ravenous hunger, but that's pretty much my only symptom.

Had my first appt last Tuesday and baby was measuring small but with a heartbeat. Then I had a dating u/s on Friday and it was decided my due date was 8 days off. Not a lot but it honestly has me worried that something just isn't right. Even after seeing the hb twice now. According to my new due date, LO was conceived an entire week+ after we had sex. I thought 3-4 days was the max. Just trying to convince myself that that means God REALLY wants us to have this baby but it's still caused me to put off announcing it until I hear the hb one more time at my next appt.
