Hellobee Boards

@allison: @winniebee: thanks! It feels different then the sort of sharp ligament pain I've had. This is dull, more crampy. I have a routine OB appointment tomorrow so I'll mention it. I'm sure it's nothing!

@Adira: How did it go yesterday?

How is everyone feeling? How was your weekend? I can't believe I'm 2nd trimester and still sick. I got sick 5 times last night and 2 times so far today. This little girl is a diva, like mommy. I can't believe I don't get to see the baby until July 3, that feels SOOOO far away. Hope everyone had a good weekend!

I'm good. 13 weeks today and I feel great. Still really hungry and tired at the end of the day but I will take it. My NT scan is tomorrow and I haven't seen the baby in 7 weeks. I am so excited. Last time I never went that long without seeing baby until the end!

@littlek: have you considered trying zofran or something? That's a lot of sick for the second trimester.

@Adira: good luck!

@littlek: it could be be progesterone that is heightening your symptoms.

@littlek: Great picture of your son. Sorry you are still getting sick. My nausea still comes and goes but is better than in the first trimester.

@Adira: Glad you have shared the news. Hope the rest of the sharing goes well.

I'm 16 weeks today and have my anatomy scan on Wednesday. I'm very anxious as my only u/s so far was at 10 weeks. I had so many u/s in the last half of my first pregnancy that I forgot what it's like in the earlier stages. I'm really hoping that we will learn sex this week because the waiting is killing me.

@MamaG: They won't do my anatomy scan till 20 weeks. That's awesome you get yours earlier!! When are you supposed to get your from maternit21? It took 8 business days to get my results.

2nd time moms - Did you know w/ your 1st when they kicked? App tells me I can start feeling movement in the next few weeks, but that for 1st time moms I can miss a lot of them since I can't really tell. What are they like?

@Adira: So cool! I'll be 17 weeks this Friday so I'm gonna watch out for some blurp-ing!

@snowjewelz: I started feeling flutters with my first around 15 weeks, but very sporadic until 18 weeks. With him it felt like little pops!

I first felt this baby a week and a day ago (13+6)! I didn't feel anything again after that until 14+4 and since I've felt him a few times a day. This one feels like brushes against me that tickle. It's always in the same spot where they've been finding his heartbeat!

*sigh* just got the call from my doctor's office that my 3rd Panorama test has been ruled insufficient. I'm quickly becoming a non-believer in this process. I'm glad for others that have been successful but I'm ready to throw in the towel and just move on. Unfortunately, we didn't do a NT scan, so I don't know for certain what my other options are at this point. I guess the Quad Screen which is much less precise.

@MamaG: Wow! That is so frustrating!!! I'm so sorry!

@snowjewelz: I didn't feel anything until 20 weeks but I had an anterior placenta and you feel movement a little later with that. But I never had a question of "was that it". For whatever reason it felt obvious to me (maybe because it was later?)

@winniebee: I really believe my only risk is AMA. Honestly, I would have done the NT scan and quad screen again like my prior pregnancy if it was the only option. This seemed very convenient and more precise and early gender confirmation was an added bonus.

@FaithFertility: I ended up not coming clean to work though because the meeting I was going to announce in got canceled!!! Ahhh!!! I hope it's rescheduled for tomorrow because now I just want to tell people!

@Adira: Lol all that build up! Hopefully tomorrow's the day!

@AngelicOne: Aww, that's great! I'm sure you already said this but I'm lazy and don't want to scroll back through this massive thread, why did you get GD test so early?

@AngelicOne: Agh gotcha. At least it's over. I don't mind the drink but I hate getting my blood drawn.

Hi ladies, been MIA recently as my husband is still in and out of hospital feeling numb. Very stressful as they can't figure out why. Anyway, we are praying it will go away on its own. He is a rock climber and getting very scared he won't be able to do it anymore. Poor thing

On a lighter note, I told my class that I am pregnant. I teach reception (5year olds) and when we are in the playground (do you guys call it the yard?!) , they use me as 'base' when they play tig. Anyway, they kept running into my stomach full pelt so I felt it was time! I told a couple of them and it spread like wildfire. Unfortunately, when we talked about it during a lesson, they wanted to know ALL about the facts of life. It was very funny / awkward! They kept asking how the baby got in my tummy and how it comes out. I told them to ask their parents! Eventually, one little boy said "don't worry guys, my dad knows everything, il ask him tonight and let you all know tomorrow!" I couldn't help but giggle. I expect there may have been a few funny conversations at home tonight with the kids! I'm going to try and find some age appropriate books to read to them!
