See how my baby is doing Glitterlove.com - Glitter Graphics, MySpace Graphics, MySpace Videos, MySpace layouts

Hello Everyone! My name is Charmane. And i am very excited to have stumbled across this web site. This site has so many insightful advice and lovely folks like you all!! In due time i hope to be touched by alot of you with `Baby Dust `... lol and vice versa. Until then CONGRATS TO ALL

My pregnacy so far

Jan. 28... I started cramping so much. I deceided to take a few days off from work just to hang aroung the house. I HONESTLY felt that I wasent prego. My faith was shoot because my last pregnacy I KNEW I was between throwing up, my boobs were sore and I sleep around the clock. I wanted to be pregnant so BAD and I truly felt I wasent.

Feb. 6... I took a blood pregnacy test. When my doctor called me back at 3pm I let it go straight to my vm. I just didn`t want to hear the news that I wasent pregnant. I called my vm thinking my dr. was gonna leave me a message confirming that I wasent, but she leaves me a message saying " hi Charmane, its me Amy from the center. When u get a chance call me back". Sooo I call the office and gave my husband `s # so they could called him and he call me. Bobby calls me back in 10 mins saying "baby u got faith right and I know I had faith right "? I said "Bobby I don `t want to talk about this right now. I `ll talk to u later ". He in replies, screaming `Ma we are pregnant. Oh baby we are pregnant!!! " My husband was estactic!!! But as for me... I was in shock!

Feb. 7... I had to take aother blood test to see my bata and progestrone levels. They both were excellent! I was literally still in shock. God is good, all day eveyday.I got my prayers answered.

Feb. 13... We went to see if the baby was growing in my uterus and all was well. My husband and I swore we saw TWO yoke saks, but the doctors confirmed one and put a ? mark saying the other dote talking about it could just be fluids. Hum... I don `t think so!! Well anyway we won `t find out until 2/25 when we hear the heart beats to know if we are having a singleton or twin pregnacy. Until then... Choo

Feb. 15... I was on my way to work about 8:30 when I reached my elevator I felt a gush of something. I put my nail in my panties (yes right in my hallway) and it had blood. I went back in my house and calmly sat on my bed and woke my husband up. He was nervous and so was I. He got dressed and we drove right down the block to my hospital. They did bloodwork, put an IV in, took some urine and then an ultrasound. The drs told me they saw TWO gs, but no fetal pole or heartbeats. They cleared me and said I was ok and for me to stay on pelvic rest. I got home about 4pm and went straight to bed.

Feb. 16... I am spotting brown. No cramping still on bed rest

Feb.19... On my way to work in my car when I felt leaking. Not again. I wiped myself and yes I was bleeding again. I drove myself back home and calmly woke Bobby up again. We rushed back to the hospital and again they did the same routine. This time they saw the two heartbeats, YES WE ARE HAVING TWINS which is a good thing. They diagnosed me with having hymging between my uterus and placenta. They said it was common in early pregnacy, but I still have to take it easy

Feb. 20... I deceided to take today and Friday off and hang around the house. Lord this is so stressful and its only the beginning

Feb. 23... Today i had a little naseau, but nothing serious at all. I havent had no morning sicknesss at all except my right tittie is sore and they are getting biggie so my husband says... Lol. Tomorrow i have a drs appointment for blood and ultra sound. My primary drs would like to check the babies heartbeats. I'll keep u posted on that once i get a chance tomorrow! hugs and kisses to my twins

Feb. 25... Today i went to my drs .appointment and the babies heartbeats were 122. They did diagnosis me with chronic hemtosa, which is common in early pregnacies. It is a clot in my uterus that causes brown spotting. Thats where all the spotting has been coming from. I been taking it pretty easy lately. All i do is go to work and back home IN THE BED. Last night i didnt sleep very well. My husband said i was tossing and turning. I suffer from alot of gas and it is very stressful. Otherwise WE ARE ALL OK!!

March 7... I had a cervical u/s, because the last time my dr checked my cervix she said it felt like 2.5cm. On the u/s it shown up 3.7 which is still short so my dr is planning on doing a ceclearge in my 12 week. As for that blood clot which measured in last time at 3.1 cm has now decrease to 1.3cm WHICH IS SO GOOD. I still have brown spotting, BUT is is so little! With FAITH and PRAY anything is possible!! REMEMBER THAT MOMMIES. The twins are just chillin. I noticed that i am having a strong hunger for food. Anything, everything. I just be hungry! lol I have another u/s on 4/4 (12 weeks) to do the first trimester screening and to check my cervix again. ALL IS WELL. Stay blessed until later

UPDATE

April 9... Well I had my cerclege yesterday and all went well UNTIL, I had to go to the bathroom and COULDN'T. Ok first off my stomach is flat. My stomach swelled up so big and hard. I was very scared. Now this was about 3pm. Since I got an spinal shot to numb me for the surgery it hasn't warn off at that time. They said my stomach musels would be the last to come bac to normal. I did not use the bathroom until around 9pm. Mind you they gave me 5 bags of IV. My bladder was gonna burst. Lol. I was in sOooO much pain. I pee peed allll thru the night. I was a mess. My husband didn't know how to treat me. He made me tea and that's what helped moved my bladder. I'm on strict bedrest. My doctor put me on progestrone shoots once a week. I see her every other Monday now. And I go for u/s every two weeks. They are watching me closely. I love it. All the attention. Hope all is well with the rest of you mommies and your babies. . Staying in touch

April 14... Today I went for an u/s to see my babies and check my cervix. All went well, that baby B was very active, very active. Twin A was so calm and humble. That just gotta be my girl.
Later that day I had a prenatal appointment with my dr. All checked out good. I HATE that clamp they use to open you up!!! Well anyway all went good the stich is holding good. I'm still on bedrest. That sucks! (13 1/2 weeks)

April 16... Today I took my weekly shot of progestrone in the buttocks. The things us mothers do for our babies, before we even meet them personally is so amazing. I love my twins so much and I wait excitally for that day when they are strong/healthy enough to come into this world. Ok I'm getting emotional. (14 weeks)

Lata momies

April 21... Today I brought 178 dollars worth of baby cloths. (sleepers, receiving blankets, tshirts, and etc) I brought blue and pink's. No, It has not been confirmed if its a boy or girl yet BUT I know deep down inside that my baby A is a girl and my baby B is a boy! Mark my words in a couple of weeks we all will know. Lol. (14 and 1/2 weeks)

paris2707 - Wednesday, 16 April
hey girl everything is going fine baby is moving all the time i just been having bad bad heartburn and my back is always hurting but other than that everything is good i see u moving on up 14 weeks gone girl


Military-wifey - Tuesday, 15 April
She's excited! She always wants to kiss my stomach and blow bubbles! She's use to my stomach moving and if she doesn't see it she will shake it and say "Get up Mya." when she blows bubbles, Mya hates that and she moves and my daughter will go "Mama, Mya kick." Mya also hates for her to lay on me and she is a mama's baby so when she's laying on me or sitting on my lap Mya will kick her and she says "Stop it Mya." I just think its so cute but I know I'm going to have to jack them both up for fighting in yrs to come! Its fun she gets to experience this w/ me cause this is our last. We've decided that 3's enough. Plus I'm almost 25 and hubby is 28 and have the energy to wake up to a crying baby or screaming toddler but when I turn 30, I want to sleep all night long again!


dariansmommy - Tuesday, 15 April
I completely understand!! It is very important for my dh and I too have this lil one also, we can no longer go through this stress anymore! I also have a five year old son who watches me suffer through it all! Im so sorry about your sweet boys. Was your last cerclage placed preventative or rescue? A prev. cerclage works much better, although I did have one fail last year but had a very incompetent doc! Iam on strict bedrest right now.. Funneling is where the top of your cervix starts to thin to your cerclage... Let me invite you to the board I chat on ... IncompetentCervixSupport@groups.msn.com Its great !! Ive been a member there for a while and there are alot of ladies going through what we are!! And everyone is awesome!!! Check it out...

Yes the cramping is normal! Not painful cramping more just annoying cramps.. It should stop 3-5 days after . How long has it been? I hope it stops soon.. Did your doc send you home with some meds to control the cramping? If not maybe you should call.. Last year I was not sent home with anything but the other times I was!


Military-wifey - Tuesday, 15 April
Its hard but technology is the best thing!! I'm also use to it b/c finding out at 8wks then around 16wks he was in Mississippi training.....came home for about 4days last month and now he's in Iraq. He'll be home around the due date for a couple of wks so I'm looking forward to that. Its not an easy life but we manage. He wasn't around for my 1st pregnancy either and she waited til the day he came home to be born....so did my stepson so hopefully Mya will wait on him too!


Military-wifey - Tuesday, 15 April
She's fine I just wish she'd get here so I can play w/ her and her big head sister (which they got from their dad!). Plus w/ him in Iraq, I just want to hold both my girls right now. Thanks.......I was a little scared of him naming her cause I thought my baby would have some old or ghetto name!! All my u/s from my 1st look like me and all Mya's look like her dad.....funny! Looking at the 3D u/s she has none of my features.......bummer! :( I heard doctors are harder on you when you carry more than one.......but that also puts you at more risk. Just think when they get here it will be worth it!


Military-wifey - Tuesday, 15 April
OMG TWINS!!! I'd go crazy. I'm going crazy and I have a toddler on her way to terrible 2's in about a month and oops..........we did it again!! Sounds like you need to sit down somewhere little missy....got to keep those babies healthy!


dariansmommy - Tuesday, 15 April
Hi! Good luck on your cerclage! Yes this cerclage is doing it's job so far!!! Although Im funneling and my cervix has shorten to 1.7cm, the cerclage is still good and tight!! Im on strict bedrest have been for 5 days now!!! Not fun at all to me , lol.. I love to be up moving around.. But I will do whatever it takes to bring this baby home!! I have a five year old so he is keeping me company!! Update me on your cerclage when you get a chance! Is this your first one? This one is my third!!! i had one with my five yr old and then had a failed one this past summer and now this!!!


buninoven - Sunday, 13 April
WoW! You are still that sick,NO FUN! So I was told about the 112grams of protein a day, wich is kinda hard to get in sometimes when a glass of milk is only 8 grams and a pack of string cheese is only 6 grams. Of course you need to get all the other non protein foods in too. I guess that cottage cheese and turkey are really high in protein. But you don't want to overdo the protein thing either, that shutting down your kidneys is no fun. I guess if you take too many of those protein drinks like the body builders, you can mess up your kidneys. I was told by one girl who is having twins that she has one of those "adkins advantage" premade shakes in a can, in the am and one in the pm before bed. And eats normal all day. I thought those were a bit pricey so I went to rite aide and got the "Whey protein powder" and just mix it with milk. Its pretty good. I guess when you are shopping for that powder its important to get the powder with the least amount of ingrediants and vitamins in it. The ingrediant list should be about an inch long if its like 3 inches long, then its a body builder one and you don't want that. That would have too much vitamins and stuff you don't need that might hurt the kids with all of those on top of your prenatal vitamin. Don't stop your prenatal. Pretty much just plain ingrediants as you can get in the powder department. Less is more. I was also told to take one extra folic acid a day too. Everything else I do pretty normal. I just started a water aerobics class and it feels so good to get my big butt in that water! Its nice because it takes the weight off of my back for that hour and that feels awsome! All of the other girls in the class are big or pregnant so I don't feel AS self concious walking out in my swimsuit. If you get the chance it is totally worth it. You might want to wait until you can keep food down though. I am so sorry you are still fighting that! I am the tooty burpy gas queen. I know, I am bragging. I am just really good at those things now! :)


teresa262 - Sunday, 13 April
Thank you so much for reading my story. Congrats for your little miracles. I am so happy to hear about doctors that are being pro active when it comes to an incompitent cervix. I feel so blessed every time I look down at my growing tummy. All the shit that I have gone through was, and is, worth it. I will pray for you and your babies every day, please keep me posted on your progress. As far as my bed rest...I was on strict bed rest for 2 weeks, only bathroom a few times a day, no sitting up in bed, try and lay on my left side. That time as very tough, after that I was on modified bed rest. I could use the bathroom, take a shower, make some lunch, sit up, but I had to spend more time of the day laying down or just sitting than anything. I was able to go to the docs once a week, as long as I was driven. Once I was able to sit for a long period of time, I spent most of my time doing jigsaw puzzles, tv gets old very quick, and there is only so much to do on the internet, and most of your friends/family are at work during the day, so it is hard to just sit and chat on the phone. Well I hope I was helpful, let me know if you have more questions. Again, best of luck and keep me posted


buninoven - Saturday, 12 April
I hope you feel better soon! Big tummy huh! Its crazy if I don't eat constantly I can lose weight like its nothing! This was SO not the case before I was pregnant. Before, all I had to do was look at something and I would gain weight now I am fighting to keep it on. I have to eat tons to maintain my weight. Its crazy! The protein shakes I think help to keep my weight steady! The books all say to eat lots of protein 112 grams a day, as well as other stuff to grow sturdy babies early on so if they come early they will have some meat on them. Better chances of take home babies. Are you very nauseated? Spoil your self, ok!! This is your time to soak it up!!! Take care!!


MOMMYOFDEUCE - Saturday, 12 April
Oh yeah, the website is http://www.pregnancy-prep-101.com my son's story and pics are there as well. Lots of info too.


MOMMYOFDEUCE - Saturday, 12 April
It depends on how far along you are. I am 21 weeks.. Mine i 4cm.. They said that is totally normal. They like to see measurements over 2.5 cm.


MOMMYOFDEUCE - Saturday, 12 April
Thanks for writing. I actually don't have a cerclage placed. I'm being checked every three weeks by my perinatologist. My cervix is totally normal at 21 weeks... So, so far so good! It is hard, I miss my little boy. He is taking good care of his little sister that is in my belly. Keep in touch.


Briyellz Mom - Friday, 11 April
Thanks, I worked so hard but it was all worth the wait and pain! The thirteen hours of labor and 15 minutes of pushing was hard to wait out but when they out my baby girl in my arms non of that even mattered! I hope you have yours soon and I hope you have a safe pregnancy, Good luck and thanks for checking up on me!


babytaz - Friday, 11 April
Oh wow congratulations to you to. baby dust and fingers crossed. Taz xx


buninoven - Friday, 11 April
WoW! Rough day!! You are so brave to go through all of that! Is it very sore now? That must be a big releif that now you don't have to worry about pre term labor. Thanks for all of the info on it! Well, lay around and spoil yourself and soak up the sympathy! Be the queen!!! I am so happy that is over with now and you can just relax and enjoy! Wheww! Take care! I put a tummy picture up on my page. My computer is being stupid. I have to wait for my hubby to get home to have him figure out what I messed up on it. He's gonna love that! Makes him feel useful right!!! Take care!!!! :)
