    @lilyofthewest: thanks for sharing your yoga experience! I am thinking I will probably start around 12-13 weeks. I really feel like I need it, can't wait!

    Just home from my initial appointment. This afternoon I'm off to an ultrasound at the radiology center. They did a dating scan in office, but, it was not consistent with my LMP or known ovulation date. I *think* the issue was the provider's skill as a sonographer, not a problem with the pregnancy, but I'm a little anxious anyhow.

    Based on my O-date, I should be 8w1d today. My OB said she thinks I'm probably just wrong about my O date, but, I really don't think it could have been more than a day +/- when I charted it. She got one measure at 6w6d and two measures at 7w3d. Calculating those dates backwards would mean my O-date was after I had already got a .

    There was cardiac motion at an appropriate rate (and audible on transvaginal doppler!), which is good. Also clear progression in developmental landmarks since the last time I scanned myself. So, trying not to worry too much.

    @lilyofthewest: thanks for sharing your experience with the yoga class. I've been thinking of trying one too - I typically run, but haven't had that much energy and would like to be doing more than walking!

    @pawprints: @loki: sending you positive vibes for appointments today - can't wait to hear your updates!!!!

    @marionberry: thanks for getting us on track with the appointment tracker - that's so super helpful!

    @pawprints: OMG, didn't even know about the next royal baby -love it!

    We went camping this weekend, which was super fun, but very tiring - DH ended up spilling the beans to everyone there, but was totally fine, and fun to be with a group that all knew. I only had to get up 3 times in the night to go to the bathroom - ha, that was an adventure. I slept all day yesterday when we got home and then couldn't sleep last night!

    Anyone found a good balance yet between sleeping time during the day and still being able to sleep at night?

    Um, we HAVE to add Princess Kate's due date to the calendar once we figure it out!

    @SunshineMcC: My rule for myself is that any nap that starts after 4:30pm is in "the danger zone"; I may have trouble getting to sleep and staying asleep that night. Likewise, if I go to bed for the night before 9:30pm, there's a good chance I'll wake up sometime between midnight and 2 and not be able to get to sleep again easily.

    @SunshineMcC: I concur! And obviously the first thing I thought when I saw that she is pregnant is that she would be an April mama too!

    Appointment went GREAT, thanks for all the well wishes! We got to hear the heartbeat which was perfect at 165, and we saw the baby on an ultrasound. It totally looks like a baby already. It measured right on schedule, so my due date is still either April 6 or 7. I'll just stick with the 7th for the calendar. We are so excited, I'm on cloud nine.

    NT scan scheduled for September 19. Woo!

    I absolutely agree on adding Princess Kate to the calendar. Last time they never announced a due date, but maybe we can guess, or just put her mid-month.

    @PawPrints: Agree with it looking like a baby. We had an ultrasound today and it was moving around like crazy and we got to see the legs and arms.

    @lilyofthewest: love the "danger zone" reference - my first nap was until 4:45pm, and then I fell back asleep around 6 - I should've stayed awake!

    @brownie: @pawprints: congrats on the great appointments! So happy for both of you!

    @PawPrints: That's great you got to see the baby and hear the heartbeat! We go back in about two weeks for another appointment and US and I'm excited to see! Last time he or she was just a tiny little blob, can't wait til they look like a baby!

    Is anyone else extremely cold? It's still nearly 100 degrees here during the day but anytime the a/c turns on I start freezing! I'm currently cuddled under 2 quilts right now. Either it's the pregnancy or I'm about to get really sick.

  24. NeekieRose

    persimmon / 1386 posts

    @Mrs. Sunshine: I am been getting cold easily too! Last weekend I was huddled under a quilt on the couch. DH did not get it. I am also using my space heater at work.

    @lilyofthewest: Glad the dates matched up!

    @lilyofthewest: glad you got some good news... and thanks for sharing your yoga experience. there's a 10 week session that starts in october so i think i'll sign up for that one... probably still won't be super obvious i'm pregnant so i'll probably be in the same position as you. but good to know it wasn't too awkward!

    thanks for all the well wishes. saw my doctor last night... just a routine appt, went over medical history, discussed the diclectin, talked about getting an OB etc. nothing exciting. she decided to try to find the heartbeat via doppler and couldn't. she tried for SO LONG and the longer she tried the more anxious i became. she could never find it but told me not to panic because it's early... so i go for my ultrasound tomorrow and i'm praying everything is fine.

    she crushed my twin dream though! she gave me a pelvis exam and said "oh ya you're definitely pregnant" and i was like "you can tell?!" and she said "ya, your cervix is really big!". i was like "TWINS BIG?" and she said "no, measuring right on track for 9 weeks with a single baby"... i was like boooooooooo!

    @Mrs. Sunshine: i'm usually ALWAYS cold and i am finding the opposite actually... i've been getting hot flashes!

  27. lilyofthewest

    @Mrs. Sunshine: I just feel like my internal thermostat is broken. I am rarely comfortable; either too hot or too cold most of the time.

    hostess / cantaloupe / 6486 posts

    @loki: @lilyofthewest: if I turn the a/c warmer I start to get sweaty but I'm just SO cold! lol u didn't experience this last time.
    @loki: sorry about your twin dream! But I'm sure everything is fine with your little one, especially if you're measuring right. Hope your ultrasound goes great tomorrow!

    @Mrs. Sunshine: i hope so! it's hard not to be anxious.

    i'm really annoyed today because i have a horrible cough and cold... and all the ladies at work trying to force drugs on me. ugh. leave me alone, i can't take your drugs!!!!!!!!

    @loki: I'm sorry your dr dashed your twin dream, but you'll know for sure today when you see that wiggly baby on the ultrasound. Yay! And like meredithnyc said, you'll be plenty busy with one!

    @Mrs. Sunshine: Yes, I'm always cold! DH had our air turned down to 71 and I turned it up, and was sitting under a blanket while he was walking around in shorts and no shirt! I also use a space heater at work.

    @loki: good luck today with the ultrasound - can't wait for you to see your little one on the screen!

    Hey everyone!
    Had my u/s today. Baby A was looking great, Baby B sadly didn't have a heart beat anymore. We are doing ok, feeling at peace with it and trusting God completely. Still feel very blessed to have 1 little one in there.
