I married my wonderful husband on 9/20/2004. Since October 2006 I went off the depo shot which I was on for 9 years, yuck!! I truly believe that shot messed me up. We have been trying ever since and finally got pregnant in August of 2007 to have whats called a missed miscarriage. When I went in for my 12 week u/s they did not find a heart beat. It was really hard on us but we came closer together and knew tour little baby would be back soon! Thank goodness it did not take to long! I found out I was pregnant around 2/29 and have been really staying positive and relaxed! My doctor ordered some progesterone testing which can back with flying colors and moved my 1st u/s up to 7 weeks waiting till 10 weeks. Thank goodness!! I am already having symptoms that I did not last time which can only lead me to believe I have more hormones so the baby is developing like it should vs last time. Good luck to all you mommies!!

On 2/28 we found out we were pregnant! My first visit with the OBGYN is set for 3/24.... we can `t wait! Currently I am not having any morning sickness but fatigue and pregnancy rhinitis, yuck!! Which means there is so much estrogen in my body that my mucous membranes are overworking themselves and creating too much!

Well my sinus problems have dissipated and I am feeling fine! Although I do have many headaches but I read that `s normal!! Till next week : )
Saturday, 15 Mar
Well, it `s hit me! Nausea! No throwing up but last night it started and my tummy just felt super empty and like it was swaying back and forth. I woke up today with the same feeling and immediately put some food in there. in addition to the consistent headaches. Do those go away? I also have like 4 dreams!! They were crazy!!
Monday, 17 Mar
Today I hit week 6. Yesterday I had the same feeling the first time I had a miscarriage A pressure and air bubble feeling. No bleeding and its gone today but its very nagging. No sharp pains but just a consistent bubble feeling. Is that totally weird?? One more week till my first appointment!! Cant wait to make sure everything is going smoothly! Happy Saints Patrick `s day : )

I had my first ultrasound today and check up. My sonogram went well! The heartbeat was 146 a minute and the size was around 13.70.. I may be off on the .70 but i know it was in the 13.XX. I have the sonogram on DVD but cannot seem to save it to the computer My husband will have to help me. The doctor said everything looks good and he was looking fir any read flags based on my previous pregnancy. The baby looked like it was in a better spot than last time , free floating vs lying against the wall. If that makes any sense? It just be me : ) Anyway we are happy and will try to post it to the computer ASAP!

I have been feeling very weird!!! If I don `t have something in my stomach at all times I feel sick!!! I feel like I am constantly eating!!! I think this will make me gain to much weight, ugh. I feel very pregnant and my hubby keeps saying this one is definitely different than last time. I `m more tired, more cranky and even more hungry! I even feel like I am showing faster this time. I read if your pregnant before you will likely show faster since your muscles have already made way last time?? Wonder if that `s why or am I just gaining to much weight!

Had my 2nd visit today with the doctor. Doppler showed heart beat at 160 a minute and he measured my uterus at 9 centimerters?? On Monday I go back for a sonogram due to the ultra screen. ( ONly want it to get a free sono but wont matter the results). Everything is going good!!
Tuesday, 27 May
Went in again to get measures and uterus is measuring 14 centimeters. They wont check the sex till the bay reaches 20 weeks, pooh! I have been feeling flutters but cannot wait till we know the sex! Why is it that some doctors do it now while others wait??
Tuesday, 17 June
One more week till we find out the sex of the baby! We have already picked out our names, themes and are simply waiting to know....hotdog or hamburger as they say! Our little baby kicks and prodes all the time, so active! I have done a good job not over eating but eating heathly for us! My husband has had two dreams ae are having a little girl but now is sure it's a boy? So funny. 6/24 and we will know!
Tuesday, 24 June
We found out we are having a little BOY!!! We found out today! I technically am 20 weeks and 1 day but based on my measuring I am about 21 weeks and 5 days. They said I will most likely deliver from 10/30 to 11/03 VS 11/10. At my U/S they said my baby might have one enlarge ventricular. ( Brain cavity) So I went ( in the same day) to see a specialist (perinatal) and they said everything looks okay but the right ventricular is measuring 9.6mm and the left is 7.6mm. It is considered very mild when it is over 10mm, so right now we are okay!! They scared the crap out of us. I will still see him in 4 weeks to make sure it is not progressing. But he was the one to say that my baby is measuring big and my Dr was probably a bit off on the due date since those wheels work a bit differently based on the make / model. I could have a Halloween baby. The specialist even predicted me having a 9 1/2 pound baby based on his size and estimated continued growth. DAMN!! I'm 5'1 and my husband is 6'4...its all him! If any of you know anything about this Ventriculomegaly , that my baby may have...please share. I'm curious if this is something that will contniue to get bigger and hold more liquid. Thanks!

mamaNdada2be - Wednesday, 25 June YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YOUR HAVING A BOY!!!!!!!!!! I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CONGRATS GIRL!!!!!
kyliecogger - Wednesday, 25 June Hi I am 23 weeks at my 20 week u/s I was told that my baby also a boy was on the high end of normal/mildly increased it was 10.2. I am unsure of the other side so I am guessing it was under 10. I am not be rescanned until 28 weeks. There were no other abnormalities and my nuchal trans test at 13 weeks put me in a 1 in 34 000 chance for downs. Yours like my baby are very small measurements. There are other ladies on here whose babies measured a lot higher and there babies are fine. I was also told that boys tend to measure bigger and they can get higher and than come down again. I was also measuring 22 weeks rather than 20. They said there usually can be a 2 week window in measurements. I know how you feel it freaks you out to find out something is not right. This forum has been very supportive and useful during my last three weeks of worry about this.

mamaNdada2be - Friday, 20 June AWWWWW well to be honest i am leaning toward the boy side cuz 2 reasons!
1. scared that she might turn out how i was in school! which was very naughty.
