@babybronco: I'm so very sorry to hear this. Sending you healing thoughts & hugs

@babybronco: I'm so sorry for your loss.

I had my 11w 6d u/s today. Jumping bean is good, mama not so much. They are putting me on sick leave from work indefinitely for now, assessments every two weeks because of all of the sickness and weight loss. I'm a bit happy I get a break from work, I just want to feel better. Charging my camera to post pics of the bean.

@babycanuck: Glad you had a good ultrasound today! Hopefully the leave from work will help you get some rest and feeling better.

I had an appointment today and I'm thinking about switching doctors in my practice. I know these early appointments are only listening to the heartbeat and making sure everything is going well, but I feel like my ob doesn't take the time to listen to me or even know anything about my pregnancy. He walked in today and said, "So, no problems? No bleeding or anything?" I told him about the bleed from the SCH and he goes oh, yes, I see that now on your chart. Great, he didn't even take 2 seconds before coming in to check my chart for any changes! So frustrating. I know OBs are busy, but he practically has one foot out the door while I'm asking him questions. I think it's time to see another OB.

@babycanuck: glad to hear baby is doing good, but sorry you are so sick! That's good they are putting you on leave- so hopefully you feel better and are able to rest!

@jodyblair: I'm sorry I hate when doctors seem rushed and aren't listening. We look forward to the appointments so much, and it can be such a let down. I've had a great experience so far at my new OBs, but at my old one with LO1, which I still liked a lot, it was never the same Dr and I just felt like I was always repeating myself and they didn't know me. If you are unhappy, I would switch! It's still early enough.

@jodyblair: if they're all within your practice, I would definitely see someone else!!@babycanuck: so sorry to hear you're not doing well I hope you feel better soon!

@babycanuck: that is super subtle, lol....not sure I would get that! But maybe I'm just oblivious congrats on announcing!

12 weeks today and have an appt later...any one else still hve major anxiety before every appt? I'm hoping that assuming today goes well I will feel better moving forward...also bought the first thing for the new baby:

Ha I realize it's under the category baby girl, but I think it's neutral!

@babycanuck: haha cute! I don't think I would put 2 and 2 together though, but it's still very cute and subtle

@hilsy85: good luck today! I'm sure everything will go great....I think because I have a Doppler, I don't get as worried before appointments, but it is still nerve wracking! ahhh that outfit is to die for so cute!

@hilsy85: yes, I still feel anxious before appointments. I'm ok for a day or two after and then the doubts start to creep back in. I'm really trying to work on it. I don't want to spend the next 6 months stressed out, you know?

@NovBaby1112: I kind of wish I had a doppler, but I am also trying to resist the anxiety!

@Mrs. Pickle: yes me either! MY OB was like, you'll probably be nervous til you're holding the baby. I was like, oh great!

@Mrs. Pickle: Ha, we are the same way. Especially with the kids. I don't know how far I would have to go back if I were looking for a pic of just me and DH!

@hilsy85: I feel the SAME way. I've been a basket case the past few days! I hit 12w yesterday and my NT scan is today at 3!! I'm not sure I'll ever NOT be anxious

@mamabolt: Hope everything is ok

@Mrs. Pickle: Did you switch your name?? Sorry if I missed something lol!

i haven't been posting much (but i've been following along) because my tiredness has lifted a lot, my weight hasn't really changed (same at 2 weeks ago, but no bigger) and i don't really feel pregnant. i have my next appt in 10 days and TBH i will be more surprised to see the baby doing well than anything else. i know that's bad to say, but for some reason i'm not optimistic even though i haven't had any bleeding or anything (besides some random cramping a couple weeks ago which i know is totally normal). i don't know if it's just detachment or mother's intuition or fear or what, but i can't shake the feeling that something's not right. just felt the need to get that out there in case anyone else has felt that way. i told my DH my feelings but i don't think he can relate in the same way. anyway, i'll keep following along and update you all after the next appt!

@mamabolt: hope everything is ok!

@natalie403: @2littlepumpkins: @hilsy85: Thanks ladies! Saw an on track heartbeaty baby at the radiologist so feeling much better. Waiting at OB now to get a precautionary Rhogam shot but feeling much better.

@natalie403: I did! I was Leialou before.

@hilsy85: thanks. it's nice to know someone can commiserate.
@NovBaby1112: about 9 weeks (lack of real EDD is throwing me off too. even though that doesn't mean anything in terms of baby delivery, at least with a date, i can measure progress). i had few symptoms with DD as well, a little tired, super hungry all the time and sore boobs, so the lack of symptoms isn't totally weird to me. maybe i'm just busier and don't have time to dwell on every last feeling?

@birdofafeather: oh yea I forgot you had that appt where they didn't tell you exactly how far along you were..I'm sure that's part of it too- not knowing exactly where you are! I hope the next 10 days go quickly and you are reassured at your next appointment. I totally know what you mean tho, days will go by and between DD, work, life in general Im like oh wait, I'm already so and so weeks??!!
