wigles16 - Wednesday, 9 Jan yeah thats why I was like well if my levels are a little high the worst that could happen is I get a 4d sonogram WOOHOO! lol well hope that you have a great sonogram I liked mine only you couldnt see very well so I made them use the internal one..(ick) but I'd rather get an upclose picture my next appointment I get to find out the sex I'm excited I'm lucky though because since I'm high risk (since I'm a teen) I get a sonogram like once a month this is going to be my second because last time I got to hear the heart beat which was excellent hopefully this time they'll let me have a picture since they didn't last time I was pretty bummed
heathersprk - Wednesday, 9 Jan LOL about the worrying, trust me it doesnt end with birth. I worry about my nine year old every time I take my eyes off of him. Its just part of being a momma. I think during pregnancy, you just feel so out of control because you cant see the baby and its so small and helpless. I totally understand though, I worry way too much as well. Like I said though it comes natural with the job and it never ends. =)
wigles16 - Tuesday, 8 Jan Well when my mom had the test done they told her that I was for sure going to be down syndrom and she was absoulutly terrifyed during her whole pregnancy and I came out perfectly fine (other may object a little lol) with no down syndrom I'm now pregnant and my mom has been begging me not to get the test if your not going to terminate your baby if something is wrong with it than there isnt a strong need to test but I personally am going to because I don't want to be surprised and it's not going to change the way i feel or love my unborn child it's not going to make me regret a thing I'd just like to be prepared my regular doctor told me she didn't get it done because she didn't care what the baby had she was going to love it anyways and she had a perfectly normal baby...I know I'm probably not helping but I hope you got some help also at my doctors if you find out that you have a high level then you get to go and get a 4d sonogram :) and they will check and make darn sure but they also check for spinabifida and hole in the heart as well as downs then they'll send you to a genetisis so hope you are having a happy pregnancy so far and that I didn't stress you out and that you found some help in all this jargon
heathersprk - Tuesday, 8 Jan I know what you mean, to be truthful, I agreed to do it merely for the opportunity to get an early ultrasound! Im glad I did, it was so comforting seeing my baby. I stress easily too and I heard horror stories about false positives, but you are almost the same age as me, Im sure it will be fine. I am still a little nervous about turning down the 16 week follow up blood work, I mean WHAT IF it causes me to miss something. But, I am pretty confident things are fine, my results were so good that all more tests could do is bring them down and make me worry for probably nothing. I got my ultrasound I wanted so I felt Im done. 9 years ago when I had my son I didn't do any of these tests. I dont even think they were offered. I went through that pregnancy in blissful ignorance! LOL I say do them to the point that they comfort you, when they become too stressful, stop. I hope it turns out ok, I am sure it will!! Keep in touch and let me know how it goes!
TJ73 - Monday, 7 Jan Hi There, I'm glad you were able to tell people over the holiday - that is very special! We have told almost everyone at this point, now i'm in the super nervous stage... again .... i'm just nervous overall! i hope everything goes smoothly. I am very tired though, i could sleep all day :)
So, did you tell everyone over the holidays? How are you feeling?

wandksos - Friday, 4 Jan i wish you would send some of that snow our way! you know how excited we get to see even a few flurries down this way! i'm feeling fine. all of my symptoms went away during week 9. i've felt fine since then, which makes me a little nervous, but i have an u/s next week. i am hoping that will put my mind to rest. i'm glad to hear that someone else is going to be working full time. i think i will have 6-8 weeks off and then it's back to work. i'm really worried about balancing everything and being so tired every day. well...hope you have a nice weekend. it's great to have another dawgs fan on here!
wandksos - Tuesday, 1 Jan hi! i saw that you and your husband went to UGA and i just had to say hi. i graduated from there too..1999. we live in augusta, ga now...only about an hour or so away from athens. anyways...just wanted to say hi. cheer for the dawgs tomorrow in the bowl game!
Heather-08-01 - Friday, 28 Dec Hi, thank you so much for your comment. I think it's great that everything is going so well in your pregnancy! I go for our first u/s this upcoming Wed. - I can't wait. The Dr says my uterus feels a little big for just 9 weeks so he wants to be sure. I used to live in GA, Atlanta to be exact. I just moved to Greenville about a year ago. I really enjoyed my time there and I'm sure you will too. I know its hard not telling everyone right now, I feel the same way, but I too am waiting until I feel like I'm on more solid ground. Keep your head up, everything will be fine =)
wedward **PINK** - Friday, 28 Dec From Athens? Yea, I go up there all the time for work. I grew up in Woodstock and my husband is from Roswell and we now live there. Sorry you don't know many people yet in NY. But with a baby on the way I'm sure it will open opportunities for you like mommy and me and play dates. I know what your saying about the nausea it's a blessed curse, if it weren't therem I'd be nervous. I'm changing docs. Didn't get the warm fuzzies from the new one.
wedward **PINK** - Friday, 21 Dec Went to the doc today and we saw the hb!!! 150 bpm, perfect! We're so excited....
Thank you so much for the comment! it's so great to hear there are people who are going through pretty much the same thing!!
I go on the 2nd of January, I'll be almost 3 months by then lol so.... we'll see how the baby is... I fell really hard Monday out of my friends truck and slipped on the ice (i'm not used to walking on it lol) my hubby rushed my to the er because i was in so much pain and we just wanted to make sure everything was okay.. well. they did an ultrasound and we got to see the heartbeat and we really think we saw TWO!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
i don't know for sure though, we will find out on the 2nd lol. i'll keep you updated
wedward **PINK** - Friday, 21 Dec Kel, Where in GA are you from? I live in Roswell. Mike and I waited and waited for the perfect time too but then figured out what you guys did. Just do it, right? Now I wish we would have started sooner. That's what everyone says. Going to my u/s appt in 45 min. will let you know how things are...
tamian - Thursday, 20 Dec Hiii! Congratulation on the pregnancy, and on your u/s. Definitely seeing that little heart flutter was all I needed to keep me going. And I am with you on the hating xmas cookies. When you said Chinese Food, my mouth started salivating, so definitely Chinese for dinner tonight!
Yep, I live In Manhattan and it is an excellent place for all of those crazy cravings. Though they do not have mongolian bbq anywhere. Have you told your family yet? How are liking upstate?
wedward **PINK** - Thursday, 20 Dec You go to the Doc tomorrow!!! Make sure you let me know how everything goes apap...
jjjenny - Tuesday, 18 Dec hi, Congratulations to you too! We are due on the same day I see. Fantastic!! I look forward to sharing the journey with you. I am can't wait to see the bub on the u/s too. I think then I will probably feel a little more relaxed. I cringe with every little thing because of my M/C in August but since I have spoken to a lady here at work I feel a little better becuase she tells me that its natural to be feeling the way I do. I have decided I ma not going to tell my parents until the three month mark... maybe that might change once the scan but I just want ot know that its all going to be okay without freaking them out. My family has been through enough grief these last few months with my dad being ill and my cousin dying in a horrific accident. Best of luck with your U/S and keep me informed on how it goes. I want to know what I am in for when I visit mine next week. Take Care and Merry Christmas if I don't hear from you beforehand. Cheers ~ jenny
wedward **PINK** - Wednesday, 12 Dec Definately tell them! It's the most exciting thing you will ever get to share with your family and you'll have them all around you. HOW EXCITING!! I can barely wait. I got lucky that I was able to push the doc to do a scan on the 21st so I will know that there is a heartbeat by xmas day. Have fun!!!
tj73 - Wednesday, 12 Dec I think it's a great idea to tell on Christmas! I t would be the perfect gift :)
MommyJewels - Wednesday, 12 Dec Congrats on your pregnancy!!! Hope everything goes well:)
angiejo027 - Wednesday, 12 Dec Hi There, I'm 6 weeks pregnant myself, and the only symptoms I have are fatigue, sore nipples, and heartburn, no morning sickness. Some women have o symptoms and go on to have healthy babies. I would not worry about not having any symptoms, some women have it really bad, be happy you aren't one of them! Enjoy it while its good! No 2 women are the same, every pregnancy is not the same.
