Well I'm on my 3rd pregnancy, with one child (almost 3 years). This will be my husband's first-born, and the first grandbaby on his side...We lost the last baby, and are hoping for the best this time around. We lost the last bun around I guess 6 weeks, but didn't know it until around 9 weeks. I had a D&C done, and it was honestly the roughest emotional point in my life. I've made it past that and we've been trying for another baby for so long, but it's so hard to stay excited when you're sick and drained all the time, and worried about a repeat miscarriage! I love this website tho...it makes me feel better knowing i'm not the only one! We're due July 16th...so I feel bad for all of us big and miserable women in the middle of July!!!! Central air and a pool pass!!! Should be fun, but regardless will be well worth it! Best wishes to everyone...this is such an exciting journey!

Well I `m 11 weeks today! So excited to be almost out of the 1st trimester. Next appt is Jan 3, so hopefully we can then schedule a date to find out what I `m having!!! As of this week, I `ve been feeling much better! A little bit more energy and finally NO GETTING SICK!!! I `ll update more after the next appt.

I had my 12 week appt. yesterday. I was super nervous to not hear a heartbeat since that happened the last time around. But, my baby's heart was beating strong at 165bpm. I requested to have the Nuchal screening done, and they said more than likely in the next week! I'm so excited! I really really hope I can get a peek at what I'm having! Otherwise, I have to wait until 20 weeks! :-( March seems so far away! I'm ready to start on the nursery colors already!!! Next appt. is Jan 31st, with the exception of that ultrasound. I'm so ready to see my baby looking like a baby instead of a big smudge on the screen.

Today marks 13 weeks!! I `m sooooo excited now to know that my chances of miscarrying are nearly gone. I `m finally getting giggly and excited and anxious about the baby. I think I will enjoy the pregnancy so much more this time around now that I know everything is well, and everything is not a surprise like the 1st time around. I had to cancel that nuchal screening. Most insurance companies here don `t cover it unless you `re a carrier of downs or if you `re 34 years or older. Needless to say, I don `t have the cash to have it done! Guess I won `t know what I `m having til 20 weeks!!! Seems so far away :-(

I `m so ready to decorate the nursery!!!!

Week 15...Feelin good most of the time...occasional gags here and there...I feel like morning sickness keeps trying to sneak back up on me...Baby bump is pretty much the same size as last week...i `m really starting to go through the emotions...what a roller coaster ride...I haven `t felt the baby move yet, and I can `t wait...I think that `s what I need to feel better. Next appt. is Jan 31st and hopefully end of February I can say pink or blue :-)

Well I went to the doc last week and I am measuring a week big. I also measured a week big at my ultrasound. They said they won `t move my due date in case we just hit a growth spurt, but will continue to monitor and if I continue to measure big, I `ll have another scan done to make sure I `m not having a 10 pound baby! lol
