Just found a site that says 5-7 lbs the first thirteen weeks
10-14 lbs the 2nd 13 weeks
10-14 lbs the last 13 or 14 weeks.

So it's not too bad....I guess from 13 weeks onward it's a pound a week.

wonderce Try switching pn vitamins. I was one one that had a lot of iron I didn't need & when I switched everything loosened up. Like Marina said Colace is great...my OB said it just adds moisture & the body doesn't get used to it. I just take one at night.
If you remember that baby list book, let ...

I did accupunctue & chinese herbs for months & I know it improved my eggs and helped implant. I wouldn't be pregnant at 43 without it.
Plus...it makes you feel sooooo good

Happy new year!

We're all moving along!

wonderce Sounds like your OB is awesome & that's so important. I'm reading like crazy too....don't know how I'm ever going to figure out what kind of car seat & stroller etc. etc. :)

Lyly I was a little concerned that he showed much bigger....maybe 14W ...

Marina Yep....every decision is stressful now, but if you're worried just wait until 20 weeks like you said if that will make you less worried.


I had my U/S today & he was several days ahead of himself measuring 13W2D, but Dr says it's really hard to be accurate at this stage.
The amazing part ...

jerseygal Yep...you're crazy :lol: No...everybody does their own thing..whatever feels right. I would go crazy not knowing. I find it comforting to visualize him and be prepared with clothes/nursery etc. i also hear it's very difficult to keep it a secret...especially w/ twins...in later u/s ...

jerseygal I'm so glad everything went well! Are you going to get the sex of the babies? It was like the 2WW all over again, but the relief of knowing everything is ok is so worth it.

Marina & Wonderce Yep...I'm suffering a bit too. Not excrutiating pain but definately uncomfortable. I made some ...

Thank you...we're all so lucky to be blessed over this wonderful time of year.
To all the ladies on the board, we've endured so much and come so far...here's to an amazing 2009.

I read this.... as it's the Chinese year of the Earth Ox...will bring a year of more harmony and peace in inter-national ...

lyly congrats on the scan, that's great news. Fingers are crossed for the b/w!

Now with Marina's info, it'll be interesting. She did have wicked m/s with a girl though & they say it's always worse with a girl. Tough to judge though if it's your first :)

wonderce hopefully you can tell at ...

Lyly good luck tomorrow! My Chinese doc said that m/s at night is the sign of a boy...he was right.
I think we should do a poll when everyone finds out the sex to see if all these myths hold true. The other one is that no m/s also means a boy.



Doddo I don't know what to tell you...i think you ...

Woops...it posted twice

I can't find anybody! Where's my mom when I need her?....isn't that always the way :)

Thanks JerseyGirl Good luck this Friday...I'm sure everything will be fine. It's funny, when they turn the numbers around the odds, even for me were very slim for chromosomal issues. It was 1 in 28, which sounds ...

Hey everybody

Just a quick note cause I gotta go tell everybody....it's a healthy baby BOY!!!!

Hey girls

BabiesGalore I hope you're doing ok!

I posted this on my Mommies thread but wanted to do it here so everybody isn't freaked out by the CVS.
It was a piece of cake for me.
If anybody has had an IUI, it's just like that...except they're sucking in instead of pushing out. It's a tiny bit ...
