[MrsReady2bMama]

By popular request, here is our very own thread dedicated to graduates from the June FET group! Anyone else is always welcome to join - we're a lovely group of ladies if we do say so ourselves

Looking forward to spending at least the next 8 months with you girls!!

Please let me know your due dates and I'll keep track of them in this list. We'll also keep track of any big appointments coming up, so let me know of those too, and anything else you can suggest!

As for me, I had my first u/s this morning. We saw a sac right in my uterus, which is great since they were slightly worried about ectopic given my betas that were slow to double. The tech said she saw some spots within the sac that could be the yolk, which was good news (no empty sac, yay!). No heartbeat yet but it's still early (I'm 5w6d). I go back on Monday to see the heartbeat. I think after I see that, I might actually let myself get excited about this pregnancy!!

As of right now, I'm 3/6!!!

[z_momma#1]

Everyone yay! We got ourselves a new name I am so proud of this group of preggie moms, I love the you ladies came up with because we did indeed graduate to the next level of our lives! This will be so exciting to keep up with all of you while we are on our journeys to motherhood and if you're like it's my first two! So I am ready to share all my pregnant lady symptoms with you all!

AFM- feeling okay so far but I have to tell you all about last night, my stepdaughter is here from St.Louis and she's about 11 and loves to sleep with hubbie and I so for the last two nights I have been a sandwich but early this am (3:48am) I got up to potty and almost fell and boy hubbie was so afraid more then me! But she's gonna have to sleep on her room cause I was even afraid too.

[Sweetpea]

Love the graduates title Thank you so much Gina, for starting this! Im so happy to be part of it!

Congratulations on seeing the sac. Thats pretty exciting!! esp since there was the worry of an ectopic. I know how you feel about waiting till a heartbeat to really get excited --btw, I agree you were probably still too early. Im trying to do the same...very hard.. but a prudent thing to try for..(so hard not to think about being pregnant!) but on the other hand.. that little sac with the glimmerings of a yolk is pretty darn fantastic! I hope you enjoyed your u/s, and how exciting to have another on monday. cant wait to hear all about it

wanna-so interesting youre talking about feeling warm. Im getting hotter than usual too. and on the soles of your feet, huh? Im a little bit interested in reflexology. Recently I noticed that when my uterus cramps I feel something slight in the palms of my feet. so I did a little research with reflexology maps and gues what...? the stomach/abdomen and the palms of the feet are linked. interesting huh? I think thats why I need so many foot massages from DH during pregnancy!! LOL....

I think I have experienced a strange taste in my mouth.. not sure if its metal or what, but you know what smell Im now SUPER sensitive to? sweat. I never smell DH when Im not pg. but now I cant even walk by him at the end of the day without twinges of my tummy turning. I feel so bad for him. Last time I couldnt even cuddle him at night. I would throw up. It was horrible. silly.

you guys... Im having a really hard time not hoping for twins. Its embarrasing to admit, bc we'd be overjoyed with one baby, and I feel like hoping for two would be selfish. Ive been on beta base a thousand times and I just need to give it a rest and forget about it until the u/s. We would be so lucky to get one heartbeat. how do I stop thinking about this??? we started out just hoping to get pg. it feels so greedy to want two now... but I cant deny it. I would love two. Maybe Im being too candid. Its just I dont know how NOT to think about this one. I dont want to be dissapointed with one beautiful hb. You know?

That so special. Was your DH totally excited about that? or does he think it might be nice to be a few days apart? either way its so close! how FUN! what a great bday present!
my DS was due on DH's bday too, 4/14. in the end he was born two days early. What fun timing! congratulations!!!!!

[MrsReady2bMama]

Yay! I'm so glad we're all finding our way over here! So fun to celebrate the next months with you all.

Hazel, I saw in the other thread you were having a little family drama - ugh to that. Hope everything is better now!

Wanna, that is funny about your due date and you DH's bday. My due date is exactly my DH's bday! With DD I did go 1 week early so I'm not anticipating having a St. Patty's Day baby, but you never know! I think it will be fun to have the dates close.

Z that is scary almost falling!! Take care of yourself!!

Marie do you know your due date? I want to make sure you are on our calendar! Yes, I agree this waiting-to-be-excited is so hard. Did you have your repeat beta yet? It is funny that you are hoping for twins. I was hoping to *not* have twins and was so relieved to see just one sac this morning. My first pregnancy I was a little disappointed to have "just" one, but as soon as she was born I couldn't even imagine having to deal with two! And now already having a toddler - one is definitely all I'm prepared and ready to deal with But I don't think it is selfish to hope for two!! Either way when you see the heartbeat(s) you will not be disappointed, I promise.

I don't have too much in the way of pregnancy symptoms. A little bit of a disinterst in some foods. Definitely tired, but I can't tell if that's just because I'm so busy, although DH says I'm definitely more tired than normal. Also still kinda bloated although definitely not as bad as it was in the week after transfer. I am squished into my size 2 jeans today -- they were my big reward after losing all the weight from DD's pregnancy, and I definitely had trouble getting them zipped!!! This might be my last week in them. I really am hoping to avoid maternity clothes until week 12 or so if at all possible... although it seems pretty unlikely. I'm only 5' tall w/ a very short torso, so I tend to show pretty quick - there is nowhere for the belly to go except out!!

Z-momma - thats very scary about falling. today morning when I was up and on my way to bathroom I was pretty lightheaded/dizzy, I had to hold to smthing immedately.

Sweetpea, Gina - yes, Dh is very excited about EDD .He wants baby(s) to be born on his Bday lol.

Sweetpea - I have already started getting feet massage from DH, smtimes my ankle hurts so little bit of massage helps me go to sleep.

for me, yesterday I had to babysit a friends kid(whom I love dearly) and I was very tired in afternoon, had some nausea and when I went to bed whole body was aching. then I woke up at 2.00 to pee and then had 3 different snack/fruit but couldn't fall back to sleep until 5. today I just feel tired otherwise fine. everyday is different for me. smday I feel perfect fine, smday very hungry and some day no appetite at all.

[Hazeld0409]

Sweetpea, I don't think it's selfish to want 2 as long as you're prepared to still be thrilled if you're only having 1.

Gina, yes family drama which is really uneccessary stress and I'm staying away from people because I really don't need all that.

So my update is that the past 2 or 3 days I've been feeling quite UGH and today--I started the puking! I am so not happy. I spent 20 minutes in the bathroom puking my lunch and now I'm hungry again. This part does suck but of course, I'm not complaining LOL

[Sweetpea]

Mrs-ok, so according to an online due date calculator, my EDD is March 24th.


by the way. This is so funny. I am so bloated from the progesterone Im starting to feel a muffin top! When I had my son at 25 I dont think I showed until at least 4 months. DD was about 15 weeks and showing. I think this time is going to be sooner still. OOhh the bliss...

We have a family reunion this weekend and I went to target and got a few cheap pairs of slightly bigger shorts. Im not announcing till 12 weeks. or 14. havent decided yet.

How about you all? Who have you told??

[Leigh66]

Hello ladies,

This is great idea to start a new thread. I have been MIA for about a week. I haven't felt like doing much because I am still dealing with nausea and tiredness. I have been eating about 8 mini meals a day and trying all kinds of remedies. I hope this get better. To go through this for 9 months would be horrible. I will be so glad to come off the estrace and progesterone. My 2nd US is scheduled July 28th.

Z- Sorry to hear about baby C. Glad your twins are doing great.

Congratulations to all of the recent BFPs and US.

Midum-- I hope you are feeling better and praying your babies are doing okay. Please post when you feel up to it.

Leigh

[Hazeld0409]

I wasn't going to tell anyone until end of 1st trimester but I told some coworkers, some people at church and most of my family.

Hi Leigh, hope you feel better soon. I think I'm joining you in the pouking game and this is NOT fun!! But no complaints from me lol
