Re: TTC Tuesday
How many weeks: 36 weeks, 5 days
How are you feeling? Good, but tired, so tired! Sleeping is getting to be more uncomfortable, but part of that is because it has been so warm too. All of the pillows I'm using are making me so sweaty.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I think we have everything we need to bring home this baby, yay! Also, I can't believe I bought milk yesterday that expires after my due date, talk about a wake up call :-O
Sorry if this gets long!
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 7 weeks
How are you feeling? Ok, I now only feel sick in the noon hours. I'm tired all the time and cry a lot.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I've had a super emotional week. Last Wednesday I was sitting at work and started getting extreme sharp pains in my lower abdomen off to the left side. Right about where my left ovary would be. The pains were the type that hurt so bad you bend in half and want to cry. I called my doctor and since there was no ultrasound done she told me to go to the nearest ER and confirm it wasn't ectopic.
I called DH bawling in the car and he met me at the ER. Turned out to be nothing but was super scary. They dated me at about 6 weeks (which is a week less than I figured.) Plus side was we got an ultrasound and saw a heartbeat and that everything was ok as near as they could tell.
Fast forward to yesterday. I woke up bleeding, not spotting, like a full blown period. I panicked, again, and called to schedule an appointment and they sent me to the triage nurse at my clinic. She was like well it looks like you have an ultrasound scheduled for tomorrow just lay low until then. I was like, "Lady, you are high off your ass. I'm coming in for an appointment."
Everything turned out fine, they said that I developed a sizeable hemorrhage in my lower uterus. Baby's heart rate looked good and the hemorrhage is not touching the gest sack. So I just have to wait for it to bleed out and everything will be ok. I knew bleeding was possible/common in 1st trimester, but I freaked out and needed to be checked to calm down.
They dated me at 6 weeks 6 days yesterday. So my due date has moved to December 2nd. I'm feeling much calmer, and now I'm just hoping nothing dramatic happens between now and my next appointment in a month.
@WillyH19 - Omg the milk date would make it real to me too!
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 18!
How are you feeling? Good most of the time
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I'm about to complain to work. We have no working Windows but they have a no heat no ac policy for 45 days. It's 82-85 in my cube, I'm dying. I forgot a picture... But I'm rocking my first maxi skirt. I will live in this thing this summer!
As for the maxi skirt... I wasn't sure about it with me being short but at this point I don't care. It's comfortable.
TTC:
Hi, my name is @lwoehlk and I've been sober from The Bump for 10 days!! Haha
Cycle/month: 9/9 actively trying
Cd: 10
W2O
Testing plans: just probably start OPKs toward the end of the week. That is all I'm doing this cycle.
Thoughts: nothing really. Enjoying the cycle off from temping. My focus is totally preoccupied with the house stuff, so hopefully this will qualify as "relaxing" that oh so many people recommend! Haha
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? DS-2 years and 11 months, DD-11 monthd
How do you feel? Tired and stressed
Any Milestones this week? DD is taking more and more steps!
DS is developing more of a 3 year old attitude and I'm really not sure how to handle him anymore!
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? This week brought us right back yo the ER, this time with DD. She has had a fever for days that won't come down even after being treated with Tylenol and motrin. we took her to walk in yesterday but the doc just brushed us off. She woke up this morning with a temp of 103.5 and vomited all over me. They did several tests and are ruling it a virus. It is SO HARD to watch your babies so sick
@chasemamabear hope your DD feels better soon!
Mommies:
How old are your LOs (Little Ones)? just past 9 months!
How do you feel? good, tired....
Any Milestones this week? nothing to report, we had her 9 month check up yesterday and the Dr says she is doing great! she is now 18 lbs 2 oz (my little peanut) and 28 in, she gained 2.5 lbs since her 6 month check up and grew 3 inches, she is 50% for weight and 60% for height, Dr says she is going to be compact....im ok with that;)
Rants/Thoughts/Baby pics? i updated my siggy with her new pics=)
Cycle/Month: 14
CD/DPO: 21
W2O or 2WW? Neither
Testing plans: none
Thoughts: I had my HSG test on April 11 (Friday), everything is normal, but that makes this cycle a bust. Prior to my test I had some eggwhite CM but since the test no temp spike. So now I'm just waiting for my period to arrive so I can start the next cycle.
How many weeks: 32w3d
How are you feeling? I'm tired and uncomfortable. I try to sleep on my left side as much as possible, but the hip pain I am currently enduring makes it so uncomfortable so I tend to end up on my back. I also have a sense of dread that I can't seem to shake. I feel like my bump hasn't gotten any bigger over the last couple of weeks and I don't think I'm feeling movement has much as some of the other girls on my month board. I have an ob appt this week, so I will find out where I'm measuring then.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? Is it wrong to want the kid out of 37 weeks? I'd be more than happy with that. Really I'm good anytime after next Tuesday when my last exam is finished. I'm getting too tired and crabby to work and it's affecting my job performance (last day of work isn't until May 25th).
CD/DPO: 2 DPO
W2O or 2WW? 2WW
Testing plans: Waiting until May 10 for AF, if nothing by then I will use a pregnancy test
Chart stalks/rants/Thoughts: I keep putting the cart before the horse, so to speak...for example, I want to buy some new clothes but I keep thinking I might get pregnant soon so they probably won't fit for very long anyways. I'm also hesitant to book clients more than a year into the future because I don't know what my prego/baby situation will be (I do wedding photography).
@mana8503 I cannot believe you have no AC. That is brutal. I think I'd take many sick days between now and then.
@WillyH19 How are you a few days away from being full term? Your pregnancy really flew these last few weeks (for me).
@snuff9861 I hope your hip pain clears up soon. I keep waking up on my back also.
Pregnant Girls:
How many weeks: 23 weeks
How are you feeling? I feel good. I have a lot of energy this week. Sleeping is iffy. I sleep well and don't get up at night, but I wake up every 3 hours or so.
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pics? I read in the newspaper today that the almanac is predicting that this summer will be the hottest and most humid in years. I am so excited to be at the end of my pregnancy in terrible heat. UGH!
How many weeks: 27 weeks tomorrow !!!! Not sure where the 2nd trimester went!
How are you feeling? Pretty good! Feeling bigger by the moment lol!
Rants/Thoughts/Bump pic- here's my pic from last week
I know, I seriously can't believe we're at the end! For a while it felt like it was never going to happen! Once I hit the 3rd tri, it just flew by.
@xxjen015 - no name yet - we have it narrowed down to two names, but we want to see his face before we decide
@seipel12 - how scary! I'm glad that the hemorrhage isn't near the sac but any type of bleeding would be so scary. I'm keeping you in my thoughts that it resolves soon.
@mana8503 - do you have an A/S date? You plan on finding out, right?
@chasemamabear - man, you guys can't catch a break in the sickness department! I hope your DD gets well soon and things calm down in your house!
