Good Morning everyone!!! Can't believe I actually got a free forum. I haven't been able to get one open in a long time.

Things are going well with me and the baby. Still feeling tired not long after I get up but not quite as sick feeling. Is it normal to still be tired at 13 weeks? I'm still not sleeping well, waking up way too early for me. I made it to 5:00am this morning but I did fall back to sleep for a bit.

Well, I must go and get ready for Church. I'll stop by a little later. Have a good one everyone.

Hey Kellie, thanks for the response about the fetal heart beats. I checked again today and it's more like 160. I guess it goes up when the baby is moving around which is alot. Everytime I put the doppler on it seems to be moving, I guess that's a good thing is it?

What's going on with yourself?

Hey you! I'm doing ok.  Up and down as usual but i'm hanging in there.  I've been watching your posts and i'm so happy for you! =) I think it's so cool that you're able to listen to your baby's heartbeat! =) Can you or will you find out the sex this time?

[msklar]

Yes its normal to still be tired. It may last a few more weeks. You never get your energy back that you had before getting pregnant untill after you have the baby..

Im glad things are going so well for you...

Hey everyone!  I haven't been able to get on in awhile.  I just spent the last hour getting caught up on everything.

Christina - Congrats on the BFP! Happy and healthy 9 months to you!

Andi- Congrats on the beatiful boy.

Boy talk about slow for a weekend must be everyone is off camping enjoying the memorial day holiday.  

Kassimom and Emma I noticed on Friday's post that you were talking about the Bebe Sounds Heart Monitor I have looked at buying one (only about $20) but the back of the box says can hear the heartbeat very early in the third trimester but they also have a quote "I heard the heartbeat by 20 weeks" so I wasn't sure and did not get one.  Kassimom I noticed you made comment about 18 weeks.  What do you both really think of it? I know Emma you said you haven't been able to hear the heartbeat yet. Well let me know what you think and I'll decide whether I want to get one.

hi i posted this question the other day but didnt get any response. I am worried. My bb tenderness and nausea seem to have faded away. Is this normal for 9 weeks or should I worry? Once in a while my bbs will be a bit sore. When I wake up in the am they are fine then as the day goes on they feel a little sore but not too bad. They were never extremely sore to begin with but it is just the point that my only 2 symptoms seem to be gone. I go for my fist us on friday should i try to get in sooner? I m/c in sept so am worried. Had no signs of m/c last time. Felt fine.

I had the same symptoms. I am now over 19 weeks and they are not sore at all! THey stopped being sore around 8 weeks for me, a little here and there, but now, nothing. I dont think its anything to worry about. I hear a heartbeat every day which keeps me positive about stuff. I suggest getting a Belly Beats Doppler for everyone to give the reassurance we all need! Its neat too!
STay positive!

Hey GIRL!
Havent seen much of you, I havent been on much either, just kinda scrolling threw the old posts....
My doctor said that his patients are not happy with the BeBe monitor, but he said I am his first to use the Belly BEats. He said he would start suggesting it to others.
Are you feeling alot of little movements in your belly? I am getting a few here and there.
I will keep checking for you! I hope you enjoyed your 3 day weekend! Mine has been relaxing.....

[jaydens mom]

Thank you for your advice. Would I be able to hear the heartbeat this early? I had a little tenderness today but not as much as usual no m/s though. i am trying to stay positive. I dont know if i can hold off until friday. I am going to be 10 weeks on Thursday. Isn't that early to hear the hb?

[shari13]

No, its not too early. I think I began to hear it at 9 weeks, it was difficult to find at first, but as the weeks go on, it gets easier. Have you looked into the Belly Beats Doppler?
