I am going to go to one more appt. and then really start looking though my options.
i might want a midwife.

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

My heartburn/reflux has really been bothering me the past two days. When I have fewer symptoms, I get nervous and want more symptoms. Then, when I have more symptoms, I want them to go away.

My doctor's office called today and rescheduled my paperwork appointment. I'm slightly annoyed b/c I have to go to a different office, which is further away from work. I don't want to have to take off any more time than I need b/c I don't want people at work to suspect anything. On a positive note, I scheduled my first trimester screening for June 17th, a day before my birthday.

I have to call to make my first appointment too. I also did not get a print out of my first sonogram! What's up with that??

I have mine scheduled for June 6th which is my birthday. I know there is a high rate of false positives. My DH REALLY does not want the test. I don't know if I am going to do it considering there is a high rate of false positives with twins.

Good Morning Ladies

I had my first real appt yesterday, they took 8 vials of blood! Good thing I'm not too bad when it comes to needles We had our first sonogram, the Dr. said the baby looks good and the heart was beating strong - it was so cool!!! He also said size wise, I'm right on track for a 9 week PG. We scheduled my 1st tri screening for next month. I asked him about false positives and he said it's about 25%, that does seem a little high - but he suggested we have the test since DH has a nephew with Downs.

So here's our first baby picture!!!!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

I had my first sonogram yesterday (will try to post) and my husband and I were so surprised to see how "big" the baby is. We thought it was going to be a little dot. It was so cute!! We got to see the heartbeat which was sooo exciting!!! I'm one week ahead of what I thought (Will be 9 weeks on tomorrow). My due date is Christmas!!! It feels so much more real now!!!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

DH was floored and is on cloud 9, it was really amazing to see....I'm on hold now to make my ultrascreen appt!!!!! I want to make it already!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

YAY!!!!!!!!!

Yay!!!!! Isn't it incredible to see the heartbeat! It was just mesmerizing, I didn't want the test to end My next sono will be in about 2.5 weeks for the tri screening So why do they have you on hold for the ultrascreen (is that the same as the tri screen?)

I can't wait to see your pics! yay!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Congratulations to everyone on seeing the heartbeat!

How is everyone feeling? I have heartburn and reflux every day, particularly in the late afternoon/evening. My boobs are still sore and seem much bigger (I don't mind though). I occasionally feel nauseous and get sick about once per week, but I'm doing so much better than I was a few weeks ago. I was really crampy yesterday. They were AF-like cramps and were pretty low. It worried me, but I hope it's normal.

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

all this exciting news! yay!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

I am checking in!!! I will be 11 weeks on Monday and am feeling great!

DH and I got to hear the hb at my appt this past Tuesday which was amazing...

I have my nuchal translucency screening scheduled for June 4th...can't wait, but am nervous as well.

My doc is sending me also for an early dating scan just to check all the measurements on 5/31 so I'll get to see my baby twice in one week! YIPPEEE!

As for MS, Reflux, exhaustion or any other symptoms...I have been spared as I have felt really great!

Can't wait to hear all about everyone elses beautiful babies!!!

Re: Starting a December Mommy Thread!!!!

So I just wanted to update, I haven't had any bleeding since Sunday ( ) and I just heard from my Dr. She said my #'s look good, my hcg is increasing steadily and my progesterone is 1430

I feel really relieved, thanks for the kind thoughts ladies

Great news!!!!! You must be excited!!!

are you sure your progesterone is 1430?? and not your beta??? I never heard of P4 being so high.....in the first trimister it should be between 9-47.....1430 sounds very very high....just curious....

Sounds like you need a new doc. alright. What kind of doc. doesn't offer you a printout of a first glimpse of your baby? He's playing down your pregnancy by rushing through your appointment too.

I switched docs. after this happened to me and am so happy I did. You deserve all the doc's attention when you meet with him. Anything less and it's time to look elsewhere!
