Hi ladies! I'm feeling really good now. I have some tenderness on my belly from the shots but nothing too bad. Baby is moving quite a bit which is so nice and comforting. I just went through DD's baby clothes and sorted it by size so in case we have a girl I'm ready. Melanie - glad to...

Thanks everyone! I've really been thinking about it since yesterday and he probably did have good intentions but it never ceases to amaze me how people can just be so bold. I guess since I would never say something like that makes it hard to understand that other people just think it's ok...

First off, I'm 20 weeks pregnant. I was at the gym this morning and I ran 3 miles (at 5.7 mph) and was doing triceps when a man came up to me and said, " You know my mother lost a baby at 7 months from over exertion." I just said, "Well, I see a perinatologist and they want me to workout to...

Hi ladies! Melanie- They gave me about 10 ultrasound pictures but I don't have a clue how to put them on the computer. Most of them are of the baby's feet-baby was moving around the whole time and made it difficult for the poor tech to get all the measurements she needed. Uncooperative...

Hi everyone! My goodness you ladies are a bunch of chatterboxes!:) Today we met w/ the perinatologist and everything is going well. HR was 155. We didn't find out what we're having- she had us look away when she started looking "down there". Baby was very active and is measuring right...

Due October 25- gender-it's a 50/50 shot:) I've never heard of the nuchal? I've also opted against an amniocentesis b/c of the risk of miscarriage and since I'm high risk anyway my OB didn't advise it. My DH and I just realized that we disagree on where I'll deliver. I plan on delivering...

Hi everyone! Glad to see everything is going well for everyone. I had to go back and catch up on posts since I don't have a chance to get to the forums everyday. I think I'm just the opposite of everyone here. I don't want to know the baby's gender but I'm afraid that w/ so many...

Had my OB appt yesterday and all went well-very active baby. They are sending me to the perinatologist on June 3 for another ultrasound and check up. Susan- Congratulations! I'm so glad your ultrasound went well Jen - In my 2nd tri I had a month where I gained 10 lbs.!! Hopefully that...

Hi everyone, I didn't get around to checking in last week-obviously. I'm feeling pretty good (17 weeks) but still vomiting w/little to no notice about 2 times a week-which is fun:) I go back to the OB tomorrow and then they'll let me know my schedule for ultrasounds, specialist appts. etc...

OK - I'm a dental hygienist and by simply asking a patient if they've had any health changes or problems will give you the answer. Besides, it's info you need to know before you treat them anyway. Some people just don't have a clue when it comes to common sense.

Hi everyone! I agree about having to get a cheat sheet going. My bio: I'm 33 and I've been with my DH for 17 years (married for 10). I'm a Dental Hygienist and my DH owns a Carpet/Upholstery cleaning business. We have a 3 yr old DD. I'm 15 weeks today and sorry to say am not enjoying...

Hi everyone! Melanie - I'm so glad you started a check-in. I was just lurking and trying to keep updated on everyone. I'm 14 1/2 weeks and still have some nausea but it's not even close to what it was. I finally figured out that if I get my shots closer to my side I don't bruise as bad. I go...

Oh Susan. I'll keep you in my prayers. I'm sure everything will be fine. Keep us posted.

Melanie- I am so excited for you and I'll continue to keep you in my prayers.

I know what you mean about dates. My 2nd baby would be due next week-May 5- and I get teary eyed just thinking about it. I'm pregnant now which my DH thinks should cushion the blow but it still hurts. Hi ladies! I hope all is going well. Melanie - I can't wait to hear how your Dr. appt...

I really like the last dress Claudia picked out!!

Donuts, Mint Chocolate Chip Ice Cream, Cream of Spinach soup. If I wasn't pregnant now there'd be many, many more but not much sounds good right now.

Melanie- I'm just throwing this out there but is it possible that you just had implantation spotting because according to this only 50% of sacs can be seen if the HcG is under 1000. When was your HCG level checked and when was the ultrasound? Here's some info I found: Regarding hCG levels...

Melanie, I just looked at the forums and my heart is breaking for you. I know how hard it is to m/c. I hope when you see the specialist you'll get the answers you're looking for. Your training had NOTHING to do with it. My maternal/fetal specialist told me that the reason I have my DD is...

Hi everyone. Sorry I'm just not getting online like I used to - I go in spurts. I thought I was feeling better but I was vomiting again this morning. I'm 12 1/2 weeks so I hope this will end soon. My DD came in the bathroom this morning when I was vomiting and she started gagging and then she...
