Hellobee Boards

@blackbird: Just logged in to see if you had any news. So happy to hear that all is well with your baby girl! Congratulations!

I'm still so sick guys. And the drugs don't help at all!!! So bummed about this.

@blackbird: Congratulations!!!

11 weeks tomorrow! Gosh, I just want to hit 12 so badly.

@mountainmama: I think it will level off! Don't worry too much, everyone is right, you'll put on weight as your body needs it

@jaguar: Yay! Just one more week!!!!!

Thanks everyone!

@mountainmama, I put on 10 pounds in the first 10 weeks. I'm now 14 weeks and haven't put ANY more weight on! A girlfriend of mine went the same way and only put on a total of 33 pounds, so it's ok! Really

@Mrs. Blue: @sylvie_b: Thanks ladies. Every day I hope it's the day my ms will be gone!!! It's not today, sadly

I saw Mrs. Blue's bump pic on the bump thread (sooooo cute!!!). Has anyone else starting showing? I feel like I have a freakishly large "bump" for 13 weeks.

@sslm, meeeee. I'm showing so obvious at 14 weeks, it isn't even funny. Even my MIL and SIL were like, "whoaaa, cute!" because it's way out there.

You'll be there soon

@autumnlove: @blackbird: @serendipity: @Mrs. Blue: Thanks girls!!! I like that I'm showing a little, especially since everyone knows now but I still think it's super early! I hope it doesn't mean I am going to get super huge haha.

@sslm: I'm just now admitting to everyone that I'm also having an April baby, but I've been stalking this thread for months. Anyway, I was going to tell you that people have been asking me about whether it's only one, and asking "are you sure" when I tell them it's just one. It's fun to be showing but I'm so nervous that I'm going to get HUGE.

Hi all.
I was supposed to have my NT scan this week and was so anxious to get past that final step. On Sunday while running errands with my sister I started heavily bleeding (immediately bled through my pants). I called the OB and drove to the ER while continuing to bleed heavily. I stayed in the hospital that evening and miscarried naturally. The doctor helped me to pass the baby and decided I didn't need a D&C. The baby measured 8 weeks. I passed out a few times because of blood loss so I spent the night and got two transfusions. We're doing ok, still in a cloud of disbelief.

I want to thank you all for your support during the first trimester journey. I don't mean for this post to sadden the thread, and I hope that most of you are past your first trimester and wont become more anxious because of my post. I'll wish you all a continued happy and healthy nine months.

@savanarunner: I'm so, so sorry. Only good thoughts coming your way.

@savanarunner: my heart goes out to you, my dear. sending you big big hugs and hope you feel healthy and stronger soon. xoxoxo

@savanarunner, I am so sorry for your loss. The ER is a very overwhelming place to miscarry, I'm glad they were able to take care of you, though. Take care of yourself

Doesn't want to post.

@jaguar: yay! finally 12 weeks. Sorry about your bloods.... am hopeful everything will be fine!

Your bloods aren't that bad, actually, Jag! Your results were WAY more positive than mine. Mine were more like...1/24 chance. Depending on which blood results you're looking at, they'll be able to tell you a lot more at week 20...the 'markers' and stuff are either there or aren't, and that helps a lot. Like heart defects, etc. There is a blood test you could do that is more definitive (MaterniT21 test), and isn't invasive.

If it helps to put it into perspective, your risk is now only 0.5%. And every child has a 2-3% risk of mental handicap risk. So your risk is still VERY low! I remember the genetic counselor giving us the 2-3% number and being surprised that is the "every baby has this likelihood" number

@jaguar: I think the fact that your ultrasound was good is really promising! Try not to worry too much. These things seem to be wrong so often!!
