October Mom Checkin

drvst8 · March 2012

Its gong to be a short checkin this week. I'm running late today. And feeling sad. Today is 6 months since we found out Logan no longer had a heartbeat. I can't believe it been that long. I really hope everyone is doing great and feeling a little bit better this week.

How are you feeling?

Any updates?

mork · March 2012

Still feeling the same - that there isn't a baby in there (even though we've seen it), and it's getting worse. The 11 straight days of spotting hasn't helped. Neither did the week-long IL visit. They weren't the problem, it was the 24 hour-a-day go go go. I really think I over did it.

GTKY: Favorite place so far: Venice, by far. I spent a few weeks there in an apartment, and just loved it. Two of my top places for future visits: Spain (for family/historical reasons), and Greece (because I think it'd be cool)!

SouthernBellaKS · March 2012

I feel so unmotivated. I usually just want to stay in my pj's and eat and sleep; however, working full time doesn't allow much for that. Other than the nausea and this food spurt I seemed to have hit, I feel fine.

GTKY: My favorite place is a tie. I absolutely love my grandpa's farm over in Texas. I think it's more of a sentimental thing, and I've just always enjoyed going over there. It's so relaxing and peaceful. As far as a vacation spot, I'd have to say Charleston takes the gold medal. The food was amazing, the historical buildings and road were gorgeous, and I just loved the atmosphere.

My two top places I want to visit are Italy and Greece. I want to hit up some of the more off the beaten path places, though, instead of all the touristy cities.

Mork, if it helps, I spotted for about 2 weeks straight, and then again for another week last month. It was usually brown, though.

tbone_bride · March 2012

My m/s is starting to subside, which of course is making me nervous! But I am starting to feel better which is nice. I'm eating like crazy, everything in sight! I have to eat something every few hours or I feel awful. Had my 2nd u/s this week & everything looks great

Favorite place I've ever been - it's a tie between Kauai in Hawaii and Paris. Both are incredible. I'd like to go back to both places!!! I'd also love to tour other parts of France & Italy. Maybe after the kids are in high school.......

luvinlifeMN · March 2012

My allergies are slowly killing me (I kid...but they are awful!). Pharmacist said I could take Claritin but it makes me nervous so I am trying to tough it out. I've had 5 nose bleeds in the past 3 days and it stinks. I want to gouge my eyes out they itch so badly. Ok...whinning over. I'll gladly take allergy symptoms with out relief if it means I am growing a baby!

I wish I had an appointment this week just for some reassurance. I'm toying with the idea of buying a doppler to ease my anxiety (we heard hb at our last appointment). For some reason I felt a little anxious the past few days. I think it is because we have told a few more people (husband's Sergeant, my 3 co-workers, my dad) and I feel like we could jinx it or something.

GTKY: My favorite place I've been is a toss up between Hawaii (Maui and Kauai) and Spain. They were both wonderful vacations. I'd love to visit New Zealand and Norway someday.

Eveanyn · March 2012

Hi everyone! Happy Wednesday!

How are you feeling? I'm feeling great! I have what I'm assuming are the beginnings of RLP, but I'll take it happily!

Any updates? We heard the heartbeat on Monday!! 160bpm! Yay for baby!

GTKY: Favorite place you've ever been? Place you most want to go? I have been to Jamaica and I LOVED it (thanks, honeymoon!!) It was also really awesome to go to Italy and see where some of my family grew up (and still lives). I really want to go to Ireland and just walk.

Anderson2651 · March 2012

HI Ladies!

Have my first OB appointment set for monday 4/2. This is the one I'm really worried about. (found out baby stop growing last time Button ). So this is my milestone I need to get past.

Feeling good tho, no morning sickness and with twins - I'll take it! I have been feeling like one side of my belly is getting bigger than the other, so thats concerning me alittle, but praying and hoping all is good in tummyland.

The one place I would love to go is Bora Bora, ever since the "Couples Retreat" Movie came out thats where I want to be. As of now my favorite place to go is on a crusie to anywhere.. love the water and the big boats.

Sorry Drvst8 about today, ((HUGS))

jaimerz1025 · March 2012

Sorry I've been MIA around here lately..end of the 3rd marking period plus an internal audit on our files so I have been ridiculously busy! ((hugs)) to everyone!

How are you feeling? Overall not too bad really. Still continue with some food aversions (or just general pickiness) and the nausea when I get too hungry. Hungry allll the time which is a bit annoying. The actual vomiting has lessened but it's still looming just ready to hit me at any time (it threatened me this morning!).

Any updates? Nope just anxiously awaiting our upcoming appointments. One week til OB and 12 days til ultrasound. Starting to get a little nervous...an IRL friend was due a week and a half before me and just went to the doc at 13ish weeks...they found out baby stopped growing at 11 weeks. So of course now I'm trying not to be in panic mode since this is week 11 (I know logically her loss has not a darn thing to do with my pregnancy but that's the joy of pgal!)

GTKY: Favorite place you've ever been? Place you most want to go? Puerto Rico. We went for our honeymoon and had a blast. We did a ton of the fun touristy things but we also spent a day visiting his family up in the mountains. The beaches and the mountains are just gorgeous. I would love to go to Venice.

lebongo · March 2012

How are you feeling? Like complete crap. This m/s is an all day sickness for me that comes in waves and varying degrees of nausea, but I can't even remember how it feels to not want to throw up 24/7. I have Zofran, and use it, but it only takes the edge off. I can't stand the sight of a lot of food and I think I have allergies too - a lot of post nasal drip that causes me to cough (sometimes in the middle of the night), which causes me to gag, which sometimes causes me to "comit" (DH's new word for cough/vomit... along the lines of vurping). Fun.

Any updates? We are officially more pg than we've ever been! Saturday was 8w3d and the little pumpkin celebrated that milestone by acting like a little goblin and making the entire day miserable. Our next appt is April 2nd... which I just realized is Monday! wow, that snuck up on me!

Favorite place you've ever been? I've been pretty lucky to have parents with timeshares so we've gone to a bunch of islands in the caribbean, so that's pretty awesome. After graduating college I went on an alumni trip through Europe hitting 11 countries in about a month. Of those I loved Venice, Rome and Paris.

Place you most want to go? I would love to go back to Venice, Rome and Paris with DH, but we'd also like to hit up Ireland/Scotland and Australia.

WearingRed · March 2012

How are you feeling? Most days I am good, which is making me crazy. Any updates? we had a strong heartbeat at our u/s 169 but my happy has worn off from seeing it. My first appointment got postpone do to morning sickness. I couldn't drive the hour out to see my midwife when I was vommiting every 20 mins so I am going today. Yes my midwife is currently an hour away but we are moving closer at the end of summer and I don't want to change providers during this pregnancy of I don't have to. But I am starting to think i might because I'm having second thoughts about her. GTKY: Favorite place you've ever been? Place you most want to go? Disney world. And Disney world. I'm a big kid at heart!

jenada2011 · March 2012

((Hugs)) to you dvrst8. I hope you feel better soon!

How are you feeling: Ugh. That pretty much sums it up. My m/s usually hits at 6pm and the whole night is just awful. Plus I'm tired and everything hurts. Whine whine whine. Stick out tongue But other than that I feel fine.

Any updates: No updates so far. I'll have my NT Scan on the 3rd. I'm nervous, but also confident that this baby is here to stay. Then I feel bad about being so confident and the "what if's" start again. We told my in-laws and my Mom last week. We're going to wait til Easter with everyone else.

GTKY: Favourite Place I've ever been: Niagara Falls, hands down. (eventhough I live here now Stick out tongue ) It still takes my breath away. Oh, and New York City was pretty awesome too! Places I'd like to visit: California (Los Angeles, San Francisco), Florida, Seattle and Greece.

CnAnA · March 2012

First off, ((big fat squishy hugs)) to you sweetie.

How are you feeling? I'm ok. Nothing super exciting to report. LOL

Any updates? Not so much today. I have another u/s on Monday, 4/2 because my doctor is awesome. This week and next week are my last on crinone! Yay!

GTKY: Favorite place you've ever been? Place you most want to go? Honestly, I have been so many awesome places in America, I can't choose my favorite! I do adore Vegas, but I desperately want to go to Hawaii.

KJohnson826 · March 2012

How are you feeling? Still feeling bloated, but that seems to be getting a little better. Today, I am tired and have a headache, my doctor told me not to take anything until I was 12 weeks, so I'm hoping it will resolve itself soon.

Any updates? Yesterday, I was 11w1d, and that is the approximate point at which we lost our last pregnancy. I had a freak out moment the day before so I took yesterday off work to relax. Next appointment is Monday!

GTKY: Favorite place you've ever been? Place you most want to go? I really like Arizona, but I haven't been too many places, so that would have to be my favorite. The place I most want to go... that is a hard one, there are so many... England, Caribbean, and Bora Bora.

race-to-be · March 2012

Big hugs, dvrst8. I hope you feel better soon!

How are you feeling: Better! I'm still pretty tired, but I think I'm rounding the corner on this whole first tri stuff.

Any updates: Had a great appointment with my OB on Monday. He was very reassuring, thorough and kind. Also had a great NT scan today! The NT measurement was 1.6 (way, way better than the 7.4 of last time) and the baby had a healthy heart beat of 151. The tech said everything looked perfect! We got a photo to celebrate and I think it is finally starting to sink in that everything might be ok this time.

GTKY: Favourite Place I've ever been: A toss up - lying on the beach in Turks & Caicos or my favourite village in England, Castle Combe. They are both serenly beautiful and relaxing. Places I'd like to visit: I'd really like to go to New Zealand and Australia someday.

RedRose84 · March 2012

Hi everyone! I'm feeling pretty much the same, though m/s decided to kick it up a notch this week (just for fun I guess). I'm just taking life day by day. My constant fear of something bad happening doesn't go away and I'm just counting down the days to my NT scan.

My favorite trip was visiting my family in Germany last year. It was really incredible. I want to go to Australia and Italy one day.

Have a great rest of the week!

Mel_B09 · March 2012

How are you feeling?- tried and right now I have a headache.. No more spotting which keeps me positive though my dh asks everyday..

Updates- 1st prenatal Friday and hoping for another u/s seeing it is right there:) if we get through Friday we have reached the biggest milestone.. I found out about the miss mc at 10weeks 1 day.. We plan on telling the family this weekend though my mom is making it hard as she just cancelled my lunch date.. Need to get creative

Gtky- we went to Barcalona for our honeymoon and would love to go back in a heartbeat. It is an amazing place:)

skye83 · March 2012

Feeling much better this week! Still a little tired but not as bad as I had been. I'm so relieved I found LO's heartbeat last night. I have my NT scan and 12 week appt on 4/4. Wish me luck!

My favourite place to visit is by far Dublin, Ireland. Eventually we want to go to Italy, Scotland, India, and Mexico.

tcuhoneyb · March 2012

How are you feeling? The fatigue is still very overwhelming but my bbs are not as sore which kind of worries me. Just ready to be safe and out of the first trimester.

Any Updates? We had our 8w appointment on 3/20 and everything looked great. Baby's heart rate was 178. My EDD has changed by one day....now due on 10/30/12. We go back at 12w on 4/18 and then have the NT scan on 4/24. Seems like forever away. We got a doppler and I haven't been able to find my LO. We get some readings quickly and then goes away, never a steady heartbeat. I know it's still early just hoping we get something next week...

Favorite place to travel: The Caribbean. Loved the Virgin Islands and Aruba.

Places I want to go: Ireland, Scotland, Italy, Russia, Greece....I love to travel

LexiSophie55 · March 2012

A little late - for some reason I forgot about this yesterday.

How are you feeling? Getting better I think. I have good days mixed in with the normal bad days. I think energy is still on the upswing though. RLP's are starting as well I think - that means I'm growing....YES!

Any Updates? Nope....dang! I did schedule my next appt. for April 17th. But, I think I'm going to go in for a quick doppler listen from my dr. late next week - 4.5 weeks is too long to wait!

Favorite place to travel: I think New Zealand or Alaska. They both had scenery that was alike, but NZ was less dumpy and had more things to offer - as well as amazing scenery.

Places I want to go: Ireland, Scotland, Italy, Russia, Greece....I love to travel
