@Crystal: yes!! With DS I don't remember this problem. I just told my hair dresser friend that it feels so dry. She said its in my head lol. I can't skip showers though because I am sweating soooo bad at night.
-
@ladybee: you poor thing! Overheated from pregnancy?
-
@Crystal: it was a problem I had before hand but it's much more severe now. I'm looking forward to the cold lol
-
@Crystal: hard to tell because my hair is always on the dry side. what i remember about my hair from last time was that it didn't fall out as much and i am looking forward to that because it will mean less time combing it in the shower if less hair is coming out, lol (I have curly hair so i can only brush it in the shower).
-
How is everyone doing on the exhaustion front? This was so much easier the first time around when I could go home and crash after work... my 3 year old has much different plans for my evening, however. I had a nasty cold this weekend and just wanted to sleep the whole time, and I could really have used a sick day today, but need to save all my time for maternity leave. I'm throwing a pity party, in case you can't tell.
-
@kiddosc: I have AWFUL insomnia, always have. I still struggle with sleep, but now at least I can fall asleep pretty easily. I take at least 1.5 hour naps every day I'm off right now, and Still easily fall asleep at night. I feel like a baby, a couple hours of being awake is my limit!
-
@californiadreams: I'm looking forward To that! I have fairly wavy hair, so it takes some TLC (though not as much as your curly!)
-
@Mrs. Champagne: Thinking of you.
-
@Mrs. Champagne: I hope you get good news today...
-
@Mrs. Champagne: thinking of you
-
@ms.line: @Crystal: @ladybee: thanks girls.
Had an Ultrasohnd yesterday and still measured 6 weeks. No pole. Appt today to see what's next. (Either pills or d and c). I'm starting to bleed now so hopefully it happens naturally!
I am doing ok. I felt something was wrong from the start so this hasn't been too shocking.
Happy and healthy 9 months to all fen 2016 moms!
-
@Mrs. Champagne: Oh no, I'm so sorry.
It's good you trusted yourself and got an earlier scan. Glad to hear you're hanging in there - I hope your recovery goes quickly.
-
@Mrs. Champagne: I'm so sorry to hear that. I'm glad that you were able to get in and get a scan early and that you weren't left in the dark this whole time. I everything goes smoothly for you from here on out
-
@Mrs. Champagne: I'm so sorry to hear that.
-
@Mrs. Champagne: I'm sorry. I've been there so I know how hard it is. Like you, I had a bad feeling from the start. I'll be praying that everything passes quickly so you can begin healing.
-
@Mrs. Champagne: ugh. I'm so sorry. My heart goes out to you. You have a community of support here.
-
@Mrs. Champagne: I am so sorry, friend. I've been there, and it's so hard. My thoughts and prayers are with you.
-
Thanks so much ladies.
I've been bleeding and got the pills to start tomorrow. Anyone had any luck with them? She seemed to think they'd work just fine
-
@Mrs. Champagne: I am so sorry to hear this
-
@Mrs. Champagne: I haven't personally, but there are lots of people they have worked for.

Think I got all our new ladies...

I am counting down the days until our u/s Monday. I'm so anxious that something will be wrong even though I know the odds are in my favor. I'll be 12w4d. I'm desperate to know that this baby is a girl (I mean a psychic and the gender chart say it is). I hope they can see at the scan. If not, I might have to pay for an elective.
-
@ladybee: is it your NT scan? I thought you couldn't tell with an ultrasound until the anatomy scan?
I have my first ultrasound on wednesday and i am getting pretty anxious for it too. I just want to see a baby and hear a heart beat!
-
@californiadreams: yes it is. With our son they knew at our NT scan. I started a thread about it this week and it seems pretty common!
-
Hello everyone,
My pregnancy is so far going well. I have my first US on Friday (12 wks) and I can't wait! It'll confirm my EDD.
I didn't give much updates, because I'm very occupied with work and my 15 months old. English is also not my first language and I'm a bit self-conscious when writing. But I like reading you and I hope we'll have a fun next 7 months! -
@ladybee: nice! well i will certainly ask then on Wednesday at my scan. I do kind of remember with my son's NT scan the tech said "it could be a boy". But i thought he really couldn't tell for sure and perhaps i dismissed it because i really wanted a girl! But he was right i guess. I am sure you are having a girl since the psychic said so after all
-
@californiadreams: lol I know right. It makes my husband crazy that I even do it. In her defense, when we were trying to conceive my son she told me that Id have a boy in October. A whole year and half later my son was born in October. I know it's for fun but I'd love for her to be right!
-
@emilie765: your English is great, don't be self conscious!
@ladybee: FX they have a guess!!!
@californiadreams: I hope they can tell at your scan!
I had to schedule my next scan for Aug 18th, seems so far away!!!
I have a dentist app Friday, and today the office told me I need a release from my dr before they'll see me. Anyone else have that?
-
@Crystal: what, that's nuts your dentist needs a release from your doctor! Man everyone these days is so scared of lawsuits! I just went and they said - Congrats and no xray!
-
@Crystal: I didn't need a release but my dentist called and cleared my cleaning with my OB.
-
@pachamama: I was really surprised when they said that!
@ladybee: they require a signed faxed note. I hope the office can send it in today so I don't have a hard time tomorrow.
How's everyone feeling? Have any of you turned the corner yet on feeling sick/tired?
-
@Crystal: My nausea is definitely better (although not entirely gone), but I'm still suuuuper tired. I'm also still horribly constipated, it's awful. I finally mustered up the courage to do a workout video last night for the first time since my BFP, and it kicked my butt! Such a bummer how quickly you can fall out of shape... How are you feeling?
-
@Crystal: @ms.line: I'm having a hard time eating anything before 3pm. I have no appetite and feel like I'm going throw up just thinking about food. I'm also super tired still. I'm getting 8-9 hours of sleep each night plus napping when my son naps. I'm a bum lol
-
@ladybee: So funny, I'm STARVING all the time! I seriously have to eat all day long or my stomach just aches.
-
@ms.line: I'm jealous. I'm losing weight and not eating is affecting my blood sugars in a bad way. I emailed my doctor this morning. We shall see. My amazingly easy and sweet son never did this to me.
-
@ladybee: That sucks. If it's any consolation I'm gaining lots of weight and it's making me feel really crappy.
-
@ms.line: aw that's how I was the first time. Gaining the weight was hard on me.
-
@ms.line: @ladybee: nausea comes and goes, but thankfully it's really manageable. I'm still very tired, hoping that changes in the next few weeks. I still have major food aversions, so I'm basically eating like a toddler.
I'm up about 3 lbs, which I absolutely should not be at this stage. I'm hoping once my food aversions subside and I can eat more balanced, it will level out.
-
@Crystal: I've heard 2-5 lbs is totally normal for first tri! I'm up EIGHT, which I can't even really wrap my head around.
-
@ms.line: I'm not exactly thin to begin with, so I don't think I'm supposed to gain any.
