Good Morning Girls-

Boy do I feel great today.... I had a great workout and I'm so excited about our scan tonight. I truly hope we can find out the sex of the baby....

Buckeye- welcome back... glad to hear you enjoyed Arizona, but had to watch such a sad game.

Wendy- Welcome to this side of the boards... and congrats on your BFP. Sounds like things are moving right along for you, which is great. Hopefully once you hit that 12 week mark you'll start to feel a little more comfortable... well probably not, but it sounded good. I don't think the worrying ever ends.... good luck and keep us posted.

Hope you all are doing well and here's to having a great day!

Hello Girls!!!!!

I am sorry about being MIA, but it will last a few more days as well. My oldest son is graduating to Boys Scouts with honors and we are deeply involved in the ceremony and set-up. In fact, I was up till midnight last night trying to finish making his career arrow. On top of that, I am teaching a Scout leader class on Thursday night and also trying to do all my homework on time for school.

Welcome to all the newbies (Jordan22, Wendy and CaseyP). I pray you all progress with ease and worry less than I do.

As for our little one, she seems to be doing well. She is getting more and more active everyday. I had a breathing test on Monday and my oxygen levels are down again. They have upped the meds again and I have to go in for another test on Thursday. This means that on Jan 23rd they will likely do another u/s to make sure she can handle the meds okay. For me, I just had the side effects of the meds, I get the jitters and tire easier. They also make me hungry which does not help my plan of only gaining about 20-25 lbs with this pregnancy. I will do perrsonals once the ceremony is over (probably Monday). Hope everyone stays heathly!

Well sorry to hear that your oxygen levels are down again... hopefully once things slow down for you a bit and the meds start to kick in you'll be good. Please keep us posted and try andtake it easy (I know easier said than done).

Tasha--GLad you are feeling so well! I hope to get exercising again soon...now that I'm spot free for over a week! Good luck at your US...hope you get to see a hamburger or a hotdog! :lol: We're still planning on not finding out the sex of our twins....but I'm starting to weaken a bit!

Angelica--I'm so glad to hear from you. I'm sure your little one is just as strong as can be. Good luck at both of your US next week.

Jordan, Wendy, and Casey--Welcome welcome! Good luck as you get bigger--and no, the worrying never stops. I'm always worrying about something--even when it's nothing! :wink:

Rachel--You sound like how I used to be before I got preggers. I used to be go, go, go all the time. But now I'm just always tired or slow at everything I do. How do you do it? Good luck on your next breathing test.

Colleen--Have you started the summer thread yet? I'll have to look for it. My babes will be coming in June or July!


Nance--How are you doing? I hope all's well...

Nothing new for me here. It's weird, because I really am not experiencing any of my previous symptoms--no more nausea, not much ligament stretching down there.....although I am tired. I haven't had an US in a couple of weeks...I need that reassurance, you know?

TAke care ladies!

Nicola,

Please stay calm. Are you still on progestrone? The progestrone is know to cause the vaginal area to bleed with rubbing. It is completely normal in most cases. Is the bleeding slowing or heavy? I think you will be fine and the baby will be floating around and growing just fine. I bleed heavily through both of my pregnancies with the boys. Though it is worrisome, most women have some bleeding during early pregnancy.

I am praying for all of you in the early stages.
