I am 25 yrs old and expecting my second child on August 24, 2008. It was unexpected and me and the father are no longer together. I don't have my first prenatal checkup until Jan 17th and it couldn't come soon enough. I snuck in an ultrasound through a friend and was able to see the heartbeat...I guess this means it is time to come out of denial!


See how my baby is doing

I am already puffy??? I started back to school today...yeah...last semester. I haven `t seen many of them since around the time I concieved and most don `t even know about the BFP but I had a couple point out the puffiness in my face!!! That is not something you say to someone with wild hormones hovering a trash can. What is wrong with these people. Yes I realize that I eat everything within a 15ft radius that doesn `t threaten to eat me first but in my defense it is usually in moderation throughout the day. I am craving a lot of salty food and still drinking diet coke. So I am trying to make everyone believe it is probably just water. Anyone care to help me with this defense???

Had my first prenatal appt today. I am 8weeks 4days from my LMP but she said I am measuring large for date. Somewhere between 10 and 11 weeks. I don `t know how that can be...I would have been on my period and I realize I can have a period while pregnant but I can assure you I did not concieve while on my period. I am having an u/s done tomorrow. Very very nervous. I have a 3yr old already by my ex-husband and the father of this baby is no longer around after the exciting news. So the thought of having 3 children on my own is a little overwhelming. I don `t even know how you would guess you were pregnant with twins. Yes they are in my family and his. I haven `t had any morning sickness I just sleep and eat oh and I have this itchy thing that drives me crazy. HELP!!!

Went for the u/s yesterday. I was 8 wks 2 days instead of 8 wks 4 days. I only have one baby!!! YEAH!!!!!!!! I recieved a referral to my old ob/gyn (who is wonderful). I have my first appt with him on Feb 7th.

I had my second appt yesterday. I had to wait for 2 hours before the doctor even got there...and I promise I will never wait to eat until after an appt again. I was starving by the time I got out. He said everything looks good but I don `t know how he would know since he didn `t `look ` at anything. I did get to hear the heartbeat again. My next appt is 03/04 and I won `t have another ultrasound for 8 more weeks....long time :(

I am having a horrible day. I woke up last night with the worst abdominal pains. I went to the bathroom to find blood and clots. I immediatly called nurselink! I went to the ER under their advice. I waited for 4 hours to get a rhogam shot and to find out I have placenta previa. I was placed on temp `light duty `. On the bright side the baby is tolerating it just fine so far...measured perfect and had a reassuring heart rate. I am already a single mother of a 3 yr old so staying in bed is not an option! Hope everyone else is having an uneventful week!!!

I go back to the doctor in a few hours now I guess and am finding it difficult to sleep. I had class all day and clinicals tonight. I am exhausted...WHY CAN `T I SLEEP!!! So frustrating!

I only have a few more days until my big ultrasound on the 17th. Mine is a little early because of all of the bleeding (which I am not having anymore...knock on wood)! I am super excited to find out if I am having a boy or girl. There are a lot of women that just know from the beginning but I don `t have that special connection so I will just have to wait for the scan. My daughter thought it was a great idea to pour water all over the bathroom floor when taking her bath yesterday...which by the way is carpet so now my entire house smells like mold and mildew. I don `t know who thought it was a good idea to but carpet in the bathroom but it was obviously someone who did not have children. I hope everyone else is doing well this week!!! Can `t wait to update you on the ultrasound on Monday!!!

I went to the doctor on Monday and everything was perfect. My placenta has moved up some and the baby measured exactly 17weeks with heart rate of 161. Looks like I am having another baby girl!!! I can `t wait!!!
