Hellobee Boards

@auggiefrog: thinking of you.

I meet with the nurse Sunday to schedule out shots the rest of pregnancy. I shouldn't complain, I've heard how amazing these shots are at helping women get to 37 weeks. Last time my insurance wouldn't approve it. So, I'm blessed:

Thanks for the welcome, everyone! Has anyone felt the baby move yet? I think I have - mostly flutters, but they seems like they're not in the right place.

@Auggiefrog: thinking of you.

@auggiefrog: thinking of you.
@BandDmommy: I have a serious needle phobia, sorry you have to go through all that, but if it keeps baby baking longer then its all worth it.

@BlueWolverine: I just started feeling flutters on Thursday. They are such a fun feeling.

Well ladies, I'm going to be adding another to our month!! Baby has been sitting with legs crossed for the last few weeks, but flipped at some point and showed off the goods tonight! Yay!

@auggiefrog: thinking of you and hoping the repeat bloodwork comes back with no concerns.

@BlueWolverine: I can't tell if I am feeling flutters. Sometimes I think I am, and sometimes I think maybe it's just my stomach. I did not feel my son until really late (like 22 weeks) due to an anterior placenta, so I'm just not sure.

@MrsRoo: congrats!

@BlueWolverine: @MrsRoo: Congratulations

@BandDmommy: @jh524: @BlueWolverine: @MrsRoo: @bloved: Thanks ladies. I'm really hoping I'm just a horrible blood test taker. But I would rather be prepared for these potential issues than to be blind sighted and learn about them all at once. I think.

@MrsRoo: Congrats on the baby girl!

@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: You can add me as team green.

I had my first nurse visit today and it's pretty cool. We go over my vitals, listen to baby on doppler and get the shot. It's great hearing the baby every week. The shot isn't bad but the liquid is thick so its a long shot. Oh well, I'll get used to it. The nurse said she has excellent results and pretty much guaranteed me that I will make it to 37 weeks. Fingers crossed she's right!! Next appointment with nurse Friday.

@BandDmommy: glad your nurse visit went well!
@MrsRoo: congrats on your
@auggiefrog: thinking of you!

@BandDmommy: @bloved: @Mrs. Lemon-Lime: @auggiefrog: @JennyLayneAZ: thank you ladies!

@BandDmommy: that sounds like it was a great visit!

@MaisyMay: such an exciting moment!

@MaisyMay: that's awesome! I am so jealous of all you ladies who are feeling the baby move!

I think we need some bump updates. Going to post mine, it's definitely a bump now!

@MaisyMay: Wow- I can't believe DH felt kicks! I am feeling some flutters (I think), but am having a hard time admitting to myself they're real. I can't wait to see the baby at our U/S next Friday.
Next Tuesday is both the EDD for the baby we lost in April and the day I'm half way done with this pregnancy. I am going to light a candle for the baby we lost, and am trying to think of some other way to commemorate the day. I'm sad for the baby that could have been, but so excited for the one that will be.

@jh524: ugh - I've had so many more headaches with this pregnancy than last! Luckily, they've gotten better over the last week so I hope yours let up soon, too!

@Mrs. Lemon-Lime: Your description of the massage chair I spit on! I'm getting those feelings too!!

@jh524: I'm feeling awful! I'm a little bit anaemic and I've just been diagnosed with GD (not on medication yet) - but I'm exhausted still and feel heavy & woozy when I stand up. I've been off work for 2 weeks now but no amount of sleep is making me less tired. Its ridiculous because I felt so well last time!

@poppygirl15: The day I heard the heartbeat with this baby, was the day I started miscarrying last year with my first pregnancy. The day's couldn't have been more different and yet so similar with all the emotions I was feeling.

Just had monthly appointment with OB. Normal checkup, nothing exciting. HB is 150. Next appt is nurse appt on Saturday.

@auggiefrog: just checking in to see how you are doing. Did you have the repeat bloodwork?

Everyone's anatomy scans must be coming up right? Ours is 2 weeks from tomorrow. We decided not to be team green, so I am excited to be so close to finding out the gender!

I had my anatomy scan today. I was in the U/S room for 2 hours with the staff not being able to get all the views they wanted but the doctor said everything they saw looked good. I'll go back in a few weeks and hopefully LO will be willing to move around more.
Hoping everyone else is having good appointments and staying well!

@bloved: I had another blood test last week. My levels were still elevated, but lower than the first test. They are going to talk to me about more testing options at my anatomy scan next week.

I'm starting to feel like a pregnant woman. By 2 pm my lower back is starting to feel like death. I'm wobbling around due to the back and hip pain.
Anatomy scan is next week. I hope that some of my problems get sorted out and I don't gain any new ones. And that the babies growth is good.

@MaisyMay: yay exciting! One of each!
