Our little GIRL is measuring a week ahead, and everything looks great. Her heartbeat was 148, and I'm up about 11 pounds at 19 weeks. So many of you doing so well on weight gain. I've been pretty good overall, but hit the Halloween candy more than I should've </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/4#post-1192211 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 09:39:45 +0000 Mrs. Champagne 1192211@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: wooohoo!! so exciting!</p> <p>I had my midwife appointment this week. They just went over my anatomy scan and said everything looked great. They aren't changing my due date even though he measured ahead by a few days on every measurement, and a week ahead for his legs! They measured my uterus for the first time at this appointment, and I was a week ahead there too.. I think baby might be a bit big?? Hard to tell at this point.</p> <p>I've gained 7lbs according to their scale. Eek.. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/4#post-1180137 Mon, 28 Oct 2013 18:05:20 +0000 anonysquire 1180137@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just had my anatomy scan today. The baby had all parts and all organs. Don't worry, I asked several times. It is so weird to think that the ultrasound tech is the only one in the world who knows our babies gender. Ahhhhh it's still killing me. </p> <p>So far I have gained 6 pounds, the heartrate was 130. I have not felt any kicks yet I don't think. I don't know? And they moved my due date up 3 days. </p> <p>My next appointment is November 25! </p> [attach=1857/13/mveisw.600x484.meow.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/4#post-1148169 Sun, 13 Oct 2013 22:33:51 +0000 fussygal 1148169@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Had our appointment on Friday! In addition to the heartbeat we could also hear the baby moving around (sounded like little swishes) - so cool and he said baby was very active :) Hopefully that means I will feel it moving soon!! Anatomy scan is set for the 8th - we're so excited to find out what baby is!</p> <p>How far along are you: 16 weeks</p> <p>Heartbeat: 164</p> <p>Weight gained so far: Zero, but very noticeable bump! Doctor says he's not worried and all looks well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/4#post-1147309 Sun, 13 Oct 2013 04:05:38 +0000 Dandelion 1147309@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I probably should have. But your birth center is probably more reaponsible than mine was. You will prob be fine. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/4#post-1147279 Sun, 13 Oct 2013 01:04:11 +0000 anonysquire 1147279@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: ya my birth center said a meal as well. Do you think I could request the orange drink instead? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/4#post-1146525 Sat, 12 Oct 2013 08:04:04 +0000 Dandelion 1146525@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: Yep. At the birth center they had me eat a sandwich with whole wheat bread and cheese, a small apple and some juice. Apparently it's not exactly accurate. I'm happy for the sugar water test instead. It's gross, but I think it's more accurate. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/4#post-1146518 Sat, 12 Oct 2013 07:54:28 +0000 anonysquire 1146518@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: you are tiny! I hope my so called birthing hips help if my babies are big. I should probably be eating as if I hav gd :/ I'm eating crappy. Is your test the orange drink one? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/4#post-1146487 Sat, 12 Oct 2013 06:39:01 +0000 Bao 1146487@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: oh my that's a good size baby! A was 6lb9oz at 39 weeks. My sister had HUGE babies and she is itty bitty so it's definitely not always related to size of the mom. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/4#post-1146486 Sat, 12 Oct 2013 06:37:39 +0000 Dandelion 1146486@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: I'm only 5'1! Probably why S got stuck, lol. DH is kind of small, too, so it's crazy that my babies get so big. Both previous babies were a case of undetected GD (found out too late with DS, thought I passed the test with S (but apparently didn't)), so this time I'm taking the test early and I've been eating like I have GD since I found out I was pregnant. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/4#post-1146485 Sat, 12 Oct 2013 06:32:32 +0000 anonysquire 1146485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: oh wow! You make big babies. I'm pretty sure with my figure and birth weight my babes will be cinder blocks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/3#post-1146477 Sat, 12 Oct 2013 06:15:08 +0000 Dandelion 1146477@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: Kind of...he was 8 weeks early, but he was 6.5 pounds. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/3#post-1146452 Sat, 12 Oct 2013 03:54:59 +0000 anonysquire 1146452@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: oh ok, that makes sense. Was your son pretty big as well? I had 2 cousins deliver last week on the same day and they both had 9 pound babies!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/3#post-1146442 Sat, 12 Oct 2013 02:16:01 +0000 Dandelion 1146442@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: I won't go past 39 weeks but I get ultrasounds to determine size every week from week 36. If baby is getting too close to big then they're going to get it out before. S got her shoulders stuckand we are all wanting to avoid that this time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/3#post-1146411 Sat, 12 Oct 2013 00:13:37 +0000 lemondrop 1146411@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: yay! Glad it went well :) </p> <p>Ugh, not looking forward to the blood sugar stuff :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/3#post-1146394 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 23:44:36 +0000 anonysquire 1146394@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: Cool! So did they already give you a date for c section or do they wait to do that? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/3#post-1145455 Fri, 11 Oct 2013 12:31:08 +0000 Dandelion 1145455@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My appointment went great! The OB had gotten caught up by the time I got there, so I didn't have to worry about the delay.</p> <p>Turns out, the OB I saw today was at the hospital when I lost S, even though I didn't even know it, so he already had first hand experience at who I was, which is nice, cause I get tired of relaying my story to every OB. He said, "Oh yeah, I know who you are!" I hear it a lot, but some OB's aren't as informed.</p> <p>I heard the lovely heartbeat. I talked with him about plans for labor, and I told him that because of all the trauma with my last labor, I don't want to go into labor. I said I'd really like to have a c-section scheduled, and he said, "I don't blame you, and I think that's a good idea."</p> <p>I have to wait 5 WHOLE weeks to go back, BUT, it's my anatomy scan!! Also, my blood sugar test (have to take it early, cause of my history), and I get to see the midwife who took care of me in the hospital, Nancy, for my appointment. November 15th won't come soon enough! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/3#post-1137098 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 19:28:54 +0000 matador84 1137098@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My anatomy scan is on the 17th...geeez I can't wait for it to get here! Dr thinks I'm 19 weeks, but my my calculations I'm 21 on Friday, so it seems like a late anatomy scan! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/3#post-1136992 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 18:33:35 +0000 Bao 1136992@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@lemondrop: oh geeze what a day!<br /> @MrsRcCar: yay congrats!!!</p> <p>I had my appt today (16+3) heartbeat in the 150's and gained a couple pounds!! :) my anatomy scan is the 25th and can't come soon enough. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/3#post-1136925 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 17:54:07 +0000 fussygal 1136925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsRcCar: woo hoo!! :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/3#post-1136677 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 15:50:16 +0000 lemondrop 1136677@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsRcCar: Yay, more blue!

Basically I'm super duper excited for next Wednesday! lol! Little Bean has been bugging around in there lately at night and I love it! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/3#post-1136451 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 14:48:03 +0000 lemondrop 1136451@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@anonysquire: soon you'll have the baby move and you'll be amazed! Last time I had one big baby kung fu at 15 weeks, then nothing until 18-19 when I started noticing it more often. I feel it best when I'm laying watching tv in the evenings, if I'm busy and running around I get nothing. </p> <p>I just had my monthly appointment- blood pressure was good, heart rate was 158, and I get the anatomy scan anytime after the 17th (my doc likes 19 weeks for this) and did the second part of our quad screen today (yet another blood draw). </p> <p>Based on our last test results, our chances of the trisomies went from 1/150ish (based on maternal age) to 1/10,000+ so that's always nice to hear :) </p> <p>Got a good morning sickness story though:<br /> This morning my husband's car broke down, so he got me and C up to drive him in to work across town at 5:30am, since I had the 8am appointment and needed the car. Made it there, then had bad morning sickness, and started puking (and some loss of bladder control no thanks to my first pregnancy/delivery) in the parking lot just as my husband's boss pulls up. I don't know if he's told her I'm pregnant yet because she raised her eyebrows when I gasped out that I was ok and having morning sickness.... all while C was shrieking his head off in the back seat of the car :P Never boring, that's for sure! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/march-2014-appointments/page/3#post-1136385 Mon, 07 Oct 2013 14:32:04 +0000 anonysquire 1136385@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Dandelion: oh man I still haven't felt anything I don't think. I don't know, yesterday I felt like a goldfish flop in my left middle stomach area but it hurt and I didn't think it's supposed to hurt. I don't know?</p> <p>Anyone have an appointment coming up. We have our 20 week ultrasound in 21 days!!! I'm just hoping the baby has all organs and limbs! </p>
