Pregnancy Info HOME

Good morning. . .it went FANTASTIC, I was seriously in and out in two minutes but the doc put the doppler to the tummy and gound the heartbeat in less than 6 seconds!! I am excited and officially am going to stop worrying for the time being. Dr. said heartbeat was good, strong and perfect!! :0) Thank you guys for listening to all my worries!!

Hey... how are you guys? How far are you two? I believe this is my 13th week. So this is the start of my second trimester!! So... I'm very anxious to start really feeling pregnant, other than... just feeling sick:( That is getting better and my eating is starting to be more regular. I have my 2nd appt on 3/15. Hopefully... then I too will get to hear the hreatbeat.

Hi Lilu, congrats on your pregnancy!! I am 2 days short of 15 weeks, so I am 4 months!! I am hoping to be able to get to find out the s_x of the baby at my 5 month apt, March 7!!

Hey Lilu, I am 12 weeks today....still a nervous wreck though! Beth and I have had no pregnancy symptoms so we have been paranoid since day 1.

Here you all are, I've been looking around for you all. I'm glad to hear that your appointment went well. That is exactly how I feel, I don't worry too much any more. My doppler helps me out a lot. Well, I am 13 weeks, and yesterday was my birthday... Yes, I'm getting old...I'm 28 now... I am getting up there ladies....:~((

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LUCKY!!!!!!.................old hag! Just kidding! Ha. I am really considering renting a fetal monitor so I am stop driving myself crazy. Which one do you have Lucky? I would probably just get the 20$ a month one and just keep it until the baby starts moving.

Happy Birthday Lucky!! Hope through all those hormones you were able to enjoy it!! and that hubby did something nice!! I REALLY REALLY wanted a doppler, but after going to the dr on Friday and knowing I am 4 months and they didn't even have to search for that strong heartbeat I am going to try and sit back and relax. . .not that that is possible, haa haa. But I will let you all know if I "flip" again and in that case I will be getting one, haa haa.

Thank you!!! Yes, I did enjoy my birthday!! Ekay, the doppler I have is called M.A.S. well, thats the brand name... I got it off of ebay by a guy named dopplermike, I like it because it has an LED that gives the BPM.... My little one's HR has been 154bpm for the past few days.....my next Dr's appt is 4/4... but it's not like my 8 or 12 week appt when I couldn't wait and I was counting down the days, I am alot more at ease now, I just can't wait to find out the s_x. If theory is right about the heart rate (140-160=girl/120-139=boy) then I guess I'm having a girl,,, Who knows?? I just want to know so that I can start shopping.

I am already counting down the days until my next apt. . .keeping my fingers crossed they will check for the s_x!!

That is horse-hockey about the bpm and the s_x, in my opinion. With my first the doctor was like-"oh, it's fast-it's gonna be a girl" Well of course it was a boy! Just to clear the record, is everyone in maternity clothes yet? The weeks are really starting to fly now aren't they.

I believe we all are in maternity clothes!! YEAH. . I am ready for the big belly!! :0)

hi again everyone! I'm going through the list seeing where you've posted! Very happy late Birthday Lucky! I turned 27 on Feb 8 so don't worry I'm up there with you :) Great to hear your appointment went well Beth! I'm so happy for you. I hope you'll be able to relax a bit now and enjoy :) I've posted this already but I'm a bit worried because I don't feel as pregnant anymore. I feel less nauseated in the mornings.. my b___bs don't hurt anymore (I still have dark visible veins). However, I've started to need to pee a lot and have been sleeping poorly.. maybe because I have to keep getting up during the night. But, before I was so so tired that I slept very soundly for long nights.. now I'm tired but I can't sleep very well. Should I be concerned??

I wouldn't worry about it Citrouille. I have heard a lot of women report lessening of symptoms at 10 or 11 weeks. I am 12 weeks and not so dead tired anymore. I think you are probably just freaking yourself out which is exactly what I am doing!

yes you are probably right ekay; I am probably worrying for nothing. It is just so hard to be confident about this pregnancy after having a m/c.. I wonder when I'll be able to relax!

Like Ekay put it on one of her posts a while back. . .no relaxing till this baby is out, haa haa. . ..I think thats how we all are going to be!

Citrouille, m/c really do take pretty much all the fun and excitement out of the next pregnancy. This is definitely my last one so I am trying really hard to relax and enjoy it.
