Hi Ladies,

I just wanted to say congratulations to all of you - I dont mean to be rude, but I saw August, 2010 and I was on the August, 2009 board. I still can't believe my little one is here, I still remember finding out two days before Christmas that I was pregnant. Enjoy this time because it goes very fast and before you know it you will have your little one in your arms. Good Luck to all of you and God Bless!!!

Congrats Me2009 and welcome!!

I had an U/S today and we were able to see the sac. There was another thing on their that the RE said could be a second sac but it was not as visible and we are hoping it is just a blood vessel (I forgot what they called it). RE told me the official EDD is 8/8/10 same as you right Albany?!?! Next U/S next Friday the 11th. Yipppeee.

Nutrition

Post by albany07 »

So, I am reading "Eating Expectantly" and how in the world are we to be eating 75-100 grams of protein a day??????????????????????????

So far I guess you add a glass of milk to everything. I guess you need to add protein to snacks as well.

This is way more than I eat normally and i will grow very big, I am afraid.

Albany – Indeedy, my rocking till the early morning days are long gone – I’m so tired all the time – plus I’d be too busy running to the loo every 5 minutes! This and my sore BB are my only symptoms! Am so worried that i could have lost the baby but had not had any bleeding that I keep prodding my BB to check they still hurt ( was doing this at my desk at work!) as I read that a sudden loss of symptoms can be a sign of M/c but without the bleeding! Am driving myself insane – think my DH is beginning to think it’s going to be a very long 9 months – haha! So funny that you have listened to Radio 1, I do to sometimes and radio 2 quite a lot - now I’m old and in my 30s – am getting on a bit you know! Happy 3 year anniversary. We had our 2 yr in September - has gone so fast with being totally consumed TTC. How many hours behind are you in Chicago – it is 5 or 6? Good news on your beta – every bit of good news is a step isn’t it?
I definitely don’t have that much protein and I don’t like milk much either. Am going to have to get clued up on this diet stuff.

Rikirees – welcome to our thread!

HollyB – Hi there - Seems like we have a lot of babies due on 8/8!

Me2009 – am so excited to hear how many little ones you have growing in there!!!

Foreverlove – thank you for your message. It gives us all encouragement that we will get to where you are now.

Am counting down the days till my u/s – only 12 days to go – that’s less than the 2WW – i can do this!

Did he call it a pseudosac? Fluid collection?

Possible there's a second one.
Avoid IVF and surrogacy in Ukraine. Ukrainian centers pay shills to post here under numerous sock accounts pretending to be patients in Ukraine. Centers using such deceptive advertising cannot be trusted and should be avoided.
