Our Journey to December
Thought that was appropriate. SO.....how was your weekend??? Mine was awesome. Took 4 tests...all BFP! The ones yesterday were really dark so that's a good sign. No BB pain yet. Should I be worried? I have cramping on and off. Yesterday, no cramps until afternoon....could be because I mowed the grass and ran the vacuum. DH pulled the mower cord for me so all I did was walk behind it. Exercise right? He was busy putting breaks on my car so I didnt want to bother him with it.
Haven't told anyone except my sister. Waiting until Mother's Day to tell my mom. I still am very worried and in disbelief.
How about you? Any news? I know you have your appt. on Thursday. You will have to tell me how it goes. I know you will see a healthy little bean in there! I just have a good feeling about all of this. There is a reason we met.

Very appropriate!!!! Can't believe we went from cd 4 to our new journey to our journey to Dec!! So glad we decided to stay friends!! My weekend sucked, I felt fine on Sat, no morning sickness, no boobs pain...which of course worried me lol!! Sunday boob pain returned, morning sickness was absent until I ate a salad, then I was gagging!! I ended up feeling like I had the flu on Sunday, cramping, headache, dizzy, couldn't get off the couch, DH cooked supper and I hit the bathroom gagging...uhh!! But happy to have any symptom at this point!! Don't worry about boobs, I have heard some ppls never hurt and some don't hurt until later on!! Now instead of having a flat tummy and skinnier butt, you and I'll be fat by the end of summer lol!! Wouldn't trade it for the world either!!
Don't worry, stress causes all kinds of problems! Once you take that digital, you'll probably believe it...That's when I did!!
Will let you know how appt goes!! My appt isn't till 1:30, so I am taking half the day off!! You'll be the first I tell!!! You were the 1st after DH to know I was getting positives...and he didn't even believe them (couldn't see them either lol) Hope we both see healthy beans and you're right, there is a reason we met and I have that same good feeling about both of us!! December just can't come fast enough!! STICKY BEANS STICKY BEANS STICKY BEANS

So I am leaving work and going to get a digital test. I hope it works!!
Ok....it's official...I AM PREGNANT! Still having abdominal cramping....is that normal? Very regular as well...TMI I know. I get these little piercing tinges in my sides every once and a while....is that normal?
Ok enough about me....how is your little one? 2 more day til US....so jealous! I didnt even call the doctor yet. SHould I do that this week? How is DH? I have not been very kind to mine for a couple of days now...I attribute it to the hormones. I am a super B**** right now.
Is the doctor going to check your levels? Are they doing anything different this time? I know it is a sticky bean so it doesnt matter. YOu are going to have a babies first Christmas this year!!! :)

OKAY...I still cramp too, am ONLY regular while pg lol tmi!! I got the piercings in my side too at 5 weeks, freaked out thought tubular, until it switched to the other side, posted a question about that and it NORMAL lol!!
Little one is fine I guess, boobs not as tender, m/s has backed off although I just get the tinest bit nauseaus at times...gagging this morning lol!! Time just wont go fast enough for that appt!! Yes call the doc, if anything else for reasurance, maybe they will see you early!! DH is b***** lol!!
Don't know about levels, am going to push for them to be checked when I get there, am also pushing for ultrasound if they don't want to give me one, don't know if they'll be doing anything different!!! And you're wrong, WE ARE GOING TO HAVE A BABIES FIRST CHRISTMAS THIS YEAR!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) I'll keep praying for our sticky beans and you keep doing the same!!!!

I am glad everyone seems to be crampy while pregnant. It worries me to no end but I have to learn to relax. I will totally relax in about 36 more weeks...LOL.
I called the doctor....they can get me in on May 7 which will be about 6 1/2 weeks. I can wait...I think.
I am glad the M/S is not as bad. I remember I had days that I couldn't get it to stop and then the next day I would be fine. Who knows. Kids! Gotta love them.
I dont know if this will be babies first Christmas for me...I am not due until the 29th so I dont think I will be early. It will be kind of nice to relax around Christmas though. I will be done with work on the 22nd of December since that is the last day of school before break for the kids. I won't go back until the middle of August. That should be a nice break.
I will keep praying for your sticky bean. I just figure all of these cramps must mean she/he is really working him/herself into my uterus for the long haul.

Well, in my experience, cramping is really good, you know I never had cramping or pain with either miscarriage!! SO if I'm cramping, I'm happy!!
Glad you called the doc...am so jelouse that you'll get to be seen at 6 1/2 weeks, but with the 1st m/c at 10 weeks, 8 weeks seems kinda good to me especially since you can see more!!
I went home for lunch, peed, went to the kitchen to get my pizza rolls out the microwave...and threw up in the sink lol!!!!! I have to say I feel much better now though!!
You will be so close to your due date by Christmas that it'll still be babies 1st, and don't tell me you're not going to have something under the tree for your little boy/girl, cause if you did I'd call you a liar lol!!!! Sounds like a nice break!! Wish I was getting that kinda break too!!
Lets both keep on a praying for those sticky beans...I've named mine E because his/her last name will start with an E!!! Goofy I know, but the first one was called peanut and it helps me think more positive with a name attached. They are both settling in for the long haul...oh, almost forgot, I had the weirdest flutter/numbing/tingling feeling all the way across my abdominal last night, any idea what that is? I figure just my uterus stretching, but it was almost like being tickled (it made me giggle)!!

Good afternoon. Sorry it took so long to write. One of those days!
I think that is cute that you named the baby already. Baby E. My friend has a little boy Evan and I call him Baby E all the time.
I dont know about the flutter across your belly. Sounds like stretching to me. I started to have those pains about 12 weeks. They went down into my legs. People here told me that about 10-12 weeks your body starts to really change so I would just attribute it to stretching and making room for the little one.
Last night I got up to pee 4 times in the night. I guess thats a good sign. Today I was hanging things in my classroom and standing on the ladder. I stretched to hang the paper and now my one side is aching a little. I must have stretched a little too much. I hope all is ok. Doc. told me our bodies are tougher than we give them credit so I am going to go with what he told me last time.
Dont be too jealous of the 6.5 week appt. It is just a confirmation appt. I my first real OB appt. will be 4 weeks after that. I dont know what they need confirmation for. I can send them my 5 pregnancy tests for that. I guess they get numbers and what not. Who knows.
Other than that, good day! SOOOO TIRED! Going home to walk the dog and crash on the couch. Decided not to run anymore but still walking about 4 miles instead.

by the way....Good luck tomorrow. Ultrasound? Awesome! I know you don't need luck cuz this is your very very sticky beany!
I only pee once maybe twice a night! Hope your side is okay, you probably just pulled a muscle or stretched it wrong. Okay, I'll try not to be jealous, I got to go in at 4 weeks for a progesterone test so I can't say too much!! Glad you had a good day!! I'm tired too! Good not running, they say if you're used to it then it's fine, but not to start running marathons if you're not! I don't do any exercise right now, I put myself in a high-risk status until after this appt, and then I may keep my status until week 12!! That originally meant we couldn't bd, but we now just do that once a week...poor dh lol!! THanks for the luck!! We both have very very sticky beanies!!!!! I decided not to come in at all tomorrow so I probably wont talk to you till friday...sorry, home computer is down right now :-( You'll still be the first friend I tell though!!!
don't know if you saw above post...well, ultrasound went great I will be 8 weeks tomorrow and baby E is measuring spot on with my LMP!! Heartbeat of 166...I got to hear it, I've never got to hear that before!! I am so happy!! HOpe all is well with you!! Doc. agrees with the taking it easy and told me to continue with my high-risk craziness!! She also told me that I can continue with the baby aspirin!! I am on cloud 9...I just thank GOD!! Also you're not the only one who thinks this is sticky, my midwife does too!! She said that after having a heartbeat that good the miscarriage rate goes down!! I'll keep praying for our sticky beans!! I just know that this is it for both of us...new due date of Dec. 3rd!! I knew it was anywhere from the 1st-3rd!!
awesome news!! Sorry about not checking your posts. I just assumed you wouldnt post anything until this morning. I am so happy that everything went well for you today. Heartbeat of 166 sounds like a girl to me. Mine was 160 and I was having a girl too. Sounds awesome. I hope your DH was at the appt. to hear the doc. tell you to take it easy. No work for you! No more chemical cleaning...even with a mask. Be pampered for a while. You deserve it. You have been through a lot these past 6 months.
What does baby aspirin do? SHould I start taking it? I am on a over the counter prenatal and calcium pills. I have prenatals from the first pregnancy but call me supersticious...I am afraid to take them. THey are probably better for me but I just cant bring myself to take them. I was going to wait until my doc. visit and ask for something different. I think the over the counter should be ok until then.
I am starting to get a little nervous since I dont have many symptoms. I still get cramps but they are not as constant as they have been. They are starting to taper off. I am worried that isnt normal. My boobs dont hurt but they are getting fuller. I am already a DD...you should see how big they get...it is sick! DH loves it....TMI, I know! They are a little more tender at night but still not enough to even say it is a symptom. I hope I am just being a worry-wort. I just really want my little one to be ok.

Dh said girl too...he's not happy about that lol!! swears she'll be the biggest tom-boy ever! He was at the appt. he wasn't happy about that either, I have been restricting bd'ing (only on sat...tmi I know lol) and she sadi stick with that...poor him!!
Baby aspirin helps if you have a blood clottin disorder, but alot of ppl take it while ttc and pregnant just incase. It just thins your blood, if you're interested, you can google it or post a question about it!! My doc. said my over the counter (one-a-day) was fine!!
I was getting nervous too because my boobs no longer hurt, they have stayed kinda swollen, but they havent gotten really big...the doc. said that was fine, especially with that hb!! My boob soreness didn't really kick in until 5 weeks, along with the on and off morning sickness at 6 weeks (more on latley) so I wouldn't worry, but if you do get to worring too much, call you doc and see if they can see you anyway!! Your little one is okay!! We ARE going to have our babies in December and we have to remind each other that everyday because it's hard after all that happened to be calm!! Just keep praying!!

Tell DH he is going to be putty in that little girls hands. My brother-in-law was so certain that his twins were going to be boys. He even went out and bought a bunch of blue blankets, onesies, etc. then they found out they were having twin girls. He was kind of disappointed for a while. You should see him now. Those girls look at him and say "please, daddy" and he goes to mush. They are both daddy's little girls. Give him time...it happens to all of them. My brother-in-law is such a man's man too. It is quite entertaining.
My DH on the other hand is convinced I am having a boy. He was certain the last one was a girl but he insists this one is a boy. We shall see if he is correct. We are both just hoping for very healthy and strong with 10 fingers and ten toes and a healthy heart and mind.
I am not terribly nervous about the symptoms. I just wondered why I didnt have any. This weekend I mowed the lawn and did some house cleaning. I was done about 3:30 and then crashed, and I mean crashed on the couch until about 7:00 when DH woke me up for dinner. I guess that is a sign of pregnancy. I also had some cramping after mowing so I only did our backyard and DH finished up. Keep in mind he has to pull the cord and empty the bag so basically I just walk behind the thing. It gives me exercise and the doc said it is fine.
I will keep praying for both of us to have very healthy and enjoyable pregnancies....all 40 weeks! Just think you only have about 31 left and I only have about 35 left. Oh geez, this is going to be a long Summer, Fall, and Winter. At least I have you to share it with.

I'm not to worried about dh's reaction to a girl, he said already that after what we've been through healthy is enough!
Maybe your DH is right!! Who knows, I feel like this one is a girl...so I'll probably have a boy lol!! Yeah, no matter what healthy is all we really want!
I've heard that as long as you don't have really strong symptoms and then a complete loss that its fine not to have any at all, some people dont!! Cramping and fatigue are signs!! And exercise is good and healthy as long as you don't overdo it!!
I will keep praying for us too!! YEah, it will be long, but I too am happy to have you to share it with, I would've went crazy by now if you hadn't help me stay sane lol!!! Just wish these weeks would fly by, I want to be in the safe--er zone already!!

Good morning. Sorry I didn't write yesterday. We have open house at school on Thursday so I am frantically trying to get my classroom ready for parents to come. It looks like construction paper threw up on my walls. I hate this part of the year. Then my sister's father-in-law died on Saturday so now we have to work a funeral into this week. Sheesh. I am NOT supposed to stress! LOL
How is everything with you? How is the M/S? Baby E must really be growing. WHen is your next appt. at the doc.?
Told my parents yesterday. I slipped it to my mom and she told me I better tell my dad before she slips and tells him. So they know. My dad was so excited. My mom doesn't get too excited about things. I wish she was a little more of an emotional person sometimes. No hug...she just said "That's Great". My dad was super excited. He did everything but jump up and down. Keep in mind...my dad is not like that at all. My sister's kids have definitely mellowed him. He loves being a Pap-pap.
How did work take the news. I bet some of the women there already suspected you were pregnant. You work in a hospital right? I am sure they are all in tune with the changes women go through when they are pregnant.
Happy thought of the day.......Only 30 more days of work for me before summer vacation!!!

SO sorry about the stress and the death in the family. Least it's just construction paper that threw up on the walls and not you lol!!
Everything with me is fine, M/s seems to be more constant now, the only day I didn't have it was on Sunday!! But really the only thing worse than having the m/s is not having it for a day and freaking out lol!! My next doc. appt is May 19th...uhh seems so far away!!
Glad you told your family, my doc. told me to tell anyone I thought should know and that would support me if something happened!! Sorry your mom didn't get too excited, but I hope your dad was excited enough for both of them!!
Work took the news good...they were all like why didn't you tell us sooner? One person had suspected it b/c I pee alot, but one of the other girls just started drinking as much water as me and she pees quit alot too so she stuck up for me!!
I wish that was my happy thought of the day, I need the summer off, it would really help with the m/s lol!! Lucky you!!! Have you had any m/s yet? Some ppl don't get it at all!! I hope you're one of those lucky ppl...unless of course you want m/s, then I pray you are as miserable as I am!!!

Hey girl...how is the tummy today? I read your post about throwing up 8 times. Sheesh girl. At this rate u will be the skinniest pregnant girl I know. I know I keep saying this but I know it is a girl. They tend to torture their mothers from day one. All these symptoms are great though. You are getting closer and closer to that 12 week mark.
I think I might need to start telling a few people at work. I told the nurse today just so she could tell me of any illnesses I need to look out for in the school These little "ankle bitters" seem to always be sick with something. Fifth disease is a big one in elementary school so I just hope we make it though without any of that. It can terminate a pregnancy so it is pretty serious.
Babysat my sisters kids again yesterday....three kids under the age of 4....I was exhausted!!! I crash at 8 as it is...I came home and could barely lift my head. I guess that is my only real symptom. Still nothing. Not that I want to throw up everyday but I feel like I Just need some reassurance that I am in fact pregnant. Even DH was saying that by week 5 last time I was craving everything sweet and feeling very ill in the evening before bed. Who knows?
Have a great day!

tummy is a little better, I did throw up once this morning and have felt on and off nausea, so that hasn't been a pickanick lol!! I won't be too skinny, I make sure I always eat a little something after I throw up!! I feel like a girl too...maybe it is and her hormones are adding to mine (so probably not possible lol)!! It seems like this time during the first pg I already started spotting, so I am on the look out, but we are so going to have a long happy and healthy 9 months together...well more like 7 now lol!!
I told everyone already and it's so much easier, now if I needed to go to the emergency room, I don't have to worry about anyone finding out!! I hope you don't catch anything...yeah, at the hospital there are always sick ppl, I work far enough away from them, but closer to the nursing home. Hope neither of us catches anything! If you feel like you should say something and are comfy with it, then go ahead!
I bet you were exhausted!!! Yikes, 3 under 4...no thanks lol!! Maybe its a boy, like you said, girls tourture lol!! who knows, you might not get sick...I will be seriously jelous lol!! You have a great day too...good luck with open house Thurs!!

Well it is Saturday morning and I survived all of the events this week. Open house was great...just glad it is over. You always get that one parent that wants to have a conference about their kid while 20 other parents are waiting to talk to you. UGGHH! Open house is not for conferences, it is for the kids to show their parents all of the construction paper vomit that landed on the wall in the form of projects. Had the wedding last night. That was such a nightmare...Who gets married on a Friday afternoon in the city during rush hour. It took me an hour just to find a parking garage that wasn't full. Then I had to walk 3 blocks to the church....of course the reception was in a different location of Pittsburgh so I had to do it all over again. Sorry just had to vent. My DH was in it so he rode a limo around for everything....how nice! To top it all off I couldnt even have a drink to calm my nerves. I'm not complaining about that...I would much rather be pregnant.
How were the past couple of days for you? I havent been much of a friend. Sorry. Things just got really busy all of the sudden. Isnt it funny how that happens...you can go weeks with absolutely nothing to do...then you have 15 things to do in one week. It's a shame cuz you can even enjoy any of them because you are just trying to survive. Needless to say I slept til 10:00 this morning....it was great....now I am going to get ready to get a pedicure and have lunch with a friend of mine (also pregnant). It should be a good day.
Any new news with you? How is the little one? Still vomiting regularly? Only 1 new symptoms for me....sore boobies! Still no sickness. I am hoping I so dont get any.

Glad you survived all that lol!!! Sounds like the last few days have def. been a nightmare lol!! Was it a beautifull wedding? DOn't worry about the venting, if you don't do it then it'll get all pent up inside and not good for the baby!!
Bad couple of days, spent most of Friday night in the ER, I just felt something was off and in the back of my mind I just kept thinking I'm 9 weeks and 9 weeks was when the hb dropped in the first pg...so I just couldn't sit at home crying all night, I went to the ER and doc. said my pulse was 130, I was dehydrated!! They put me on an IV. I actually threw up the 8 times on wed. once on thur. and 4 times b4 I left for ER on friday (I think that was just nervous though). THey did an ultrasound on a machine older than me and baby E's hb was 171!! Measuring a few days behind which worries me, but hoping it's just cause its an old machine and this ultrasound was done abdominally and not transvaginally like my ob's office...least I hope thats why, because I am really concerned about that as I remember the 1st baby not measuring right. ON a different note, I did throw up last night 4-5 times!! Actually hoping this becomes a regular thing to help reassure me lol!!
Glad you are getting symptoms!! Sore boobs were first with me...all my syptoms were iffy until week 5, thats when sore boobs kicked in and stronger!! Yeah, throwing up to the point of deydration is so not pretty, so I'll keep my fingers crossed you don't get sick!

Oh my gosh girl. Is everything ok? If you are vomiting 8 times a day no wonder you were dehydrated. I am glad you have enough sense to go to the ER. I hope everything is back to normal today. Make sure you are drinking plenty of liquids!!! Eat an extra cheeseburger just in case too! :) maybe some french fries as well! When I started to read your post I started to get a sick feeling in my tummy....don't scare me like that! I am so glad everything is ok.
I wouldnt worry about the baby not measuring exactly right on. I would call your doctors in you need reassurance and schedule to come in for a check....remember you pay them which means you are in charge. If you feel you need another untrasound you go get one!
On a different note....you are throwing up a lot. How on earth do you get anything done in a day...lol! I got a little nauseated this morning in the shower and then again after lunch but nothing like last time. I didnt even gag. Just felt a little queezy. BBs are still a little sore but nothing major. I go to the doctor on Friday...I am starting to get a little nervous. THe last time I went in there they told me my baby was dead. I keep having visions of that happening again. I guess I just have to get through the first one....overcoming another obstacle.
I hope and pray that you are ok and well hydrated. Talk to you soon.

I'm okay now, I have thrown up a lot since then, but lucky me I only throw up in the early mornings before lunch, or like 10:00 at night!! So during the day I get a little icky feeling sometimes, but not always!! Sorry I scared you, didn't mean too!
I'm not worried anymore, that machine was really old and I googled it (surprise surprise) turns out that different ultrasound machines and technicians can come up with different dates!! And if they measure from a certain level it can make the measurement off!! I called my OB and told them what happened, but if they don't need to see me then I won't worry as I will be going in for my 12 week scan in about 15 days anyway!!
Yeah, mine started with nausea, graduated to gagging and ultimatley throwing up!! Hope yours doesn't get as bad as mine though! Glad your boobs are sore but not to the point of pain!! Yeah, before my ultrasound I just kept picturing the last time I went in and the baby had fallen to the bottom of my cervix and the ultrasound tech just kept trying and trying to find a hb but couldn't...But this time I went in and like a big girl pep talked myself while i was getting undressed, sat on the table and when it popped up on the screen it was so big, and I saw that hb almost instantly and my eyes teared up and that hb was so strong...and yours will be too!! Just take a few breaths and I'll so be praying for you and your little one!! I just know that this is it for BOTH of us and your little one will be just fine and very healthy!! I would say relax but I couldn't, I thought I was going to start crying in the waiting room!! Just stay positive it'll be okay!!
I am okay, well and hydrated!! Talk to ya soon too!!

I am glad everything is going better....besides the whole throwing up thing....you gotta be ready for that to end.
Do you get another ultrasound the next time you go? I wish I could get an ultrasound each time I went to the doctor. I am going to insist on at least having one done at 13 weeks so I can have the genetic testing done. I go back and forth on whether its a good idea to test. This isnt the blood test...I am talking about the genetic test where they take a sample of the placenta and test for the chromosome makeup. I just want to be sure this little one doesnt have the same thing the last one had. (extra 13th chromosome) They told me it was just a fluke but I want to be certain. I dont know....what do you think I should do? I just feel I want to be prepared if something is wrong again.
Symptoms: blue vein highway on my chest and belly....extreme and I mean extreme exhaustion....and mildly sore boobs. I am starting to just get a little queezy which is how you said yours started so I am hoping that doesnt mean I will be hugging the bowl soon.
Another strange symptom: I have been indifferent on all food. What I mean is, I havent craved eating anything and nothing sounds good or bad to me. I just eat to eat but nothing really tastes really good to me. I used to love mexican food and pasta....couldnt careless now. DH asks me what I want for dinner (he does all the cooking) and I could careless what he makes because I know I am not going to like any of it. It all tastes so bland to me. Is that crazy?

Kinda ready for it to end, but would totally freak out if it did lol!!
Yup, I'm getting the ultrasound so they can screen for down syndrome and of course they do bloodwork with that. I'm not having any other testing done as there is a higher miscarriage rate for those tests, only like 2-3%, but that's just too high for me. If the testing is whats going to make you feel better and more secure about this pg, then you should definatley do it, just make sure you know all the risks involved with each test.
Symptoms are sounding good!! I hope you're not hugging the bowl either lol!! Maybe you'll just get a little nauseated here and there and that's it for you!!
I haven't craved anything either really, except in the very beginning, I craved hamburger meat, now I can't hardly eat any meat. Doesn't sound crazy to me, but hey I'm crazy anyway lol!! I think your tastebuds change during pregnancy so its probably normal!! Half the time I almost too scared to eat, so I eat bland things because spices burn and choke me coming back up lol!! I think our cravings dont kick in until around 11-13 weeksish!! So looking forward to being able to us being able to dish on the cravings! Well, have a good day and try not to feel so anxious about Friday, it'll come and go before you know it...least I hope so!!
