Also I'm so ready for my ultrasound at almost 11 weeks. I just keep thinking what if it's an empty sac. Having a chemical pregnancy last cycle doesn't make it more likely, right?? I don’t think it would make it more likely. Are you having any cramping/spotting?

There’s only a couple of us but might as well have a check-in! Weeks Pregnant: Baby is the Size of a: FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: Team: Appointments: How are you feeling? Rants/raves? GTKY - Intro? Tell us about yourself I think I go here now?? Still kind of in shock tbh. 1. According to LMP I’m 4w1d 2. Size of a poppyseed 3. This will be our 3rd and final baby 4. Team finding out ASAP 5. Have a phone appointment for my nurse portion next week Thursday, she said she would order a dating ultrasound after that for me to do around 8 weeks 6. Physically I just have some cramping/bloating and some breast tenderness. Emotionally I don’t feel like this is real yet. It took us so long to get pregnant with both our DDs, so I was fully expecting that to happen again. This was our first cycle trying and it seems to have happened. So naturally my anxiety tells me it was too easy so now something will go wrong. I am a 31 yr old medical assistant and have been married for 10 years. 2 DDS, one just turned 8 and the next is a year and a half. We have a big gap between the two because I had severe PPA/PPD and was (is) terrified of that happening again.

I had my 10 week scan this week and did my blood draw! I am up about 2/3 lbs so far and not superrrrr thrilled about it. But also not surprised. working out less, eating more. As soon as I get some energy back I am going to get back to it.
We will know in a week what the sex is and if there are any chromosomal abnormalities. My referral was sent to my MFM and I should be getting a call to schedule my appt very soon. I'll see them for first scans in about two weeks.
HR was 178. If the heart rate thing is true, that leads me to believe girl.
I have a posterior placenta this time, which is wonderful so I can feel some earlier movement.

Exciting donnameagle! Heart rate was true indicator for both of my kids. For my SIL, her son had a higher heart rate so we were a little surprised he was a boy. Baby’s heart rate here was 176, so I’m thinking girl too.

I really want the call on the all clear for the other part of the tests!!

I have been waiting and waiting for my ultrasound next Monday morning. I've been mostly not thinking about it, but i still have this "what if" is an empty sac... Or??? I have been counting on having DH being there to hold my hand.
Now..... DH's grandpa died and the funeral is that morning. 😔
I called the OB office to see how long it would be until i could get another ultrasound appt. Cause i hate to keep DH away from his grandpa's funeral. At least 3 weeks and I'm already 10 weeks. 😭
And she told me they tightened their restrictions and DH can't come in with me so now I'm a mess and don't know what to do.

Also I've been kinda waiting to tell people until we actually know there's a baby in there, so another reason i don't want to wait for a later appt.

alwayscheese, I would take the appt. I have gone through some trauma without H next to me before and yes, it was not preferable. But I think waiting 3 weeks will be even more torture. MH has been at one scan as of now because of covid and our other kids schedules. It does happen! But I know all will be well and you'll be so glad you went!

Congrats donnameagle!!!! I’m sorry alwayscheese. I personally would keep the appointment and wouldn’t want to wait. Would you want to go to the funeral or skip? Could you FaceTime or take a video for your H to share afterward?

Could you FaceTime or take a video for your H to share afterward? I am hoping i can do the video/video call! IDK about the funeral. If it wasn't 4hrs away I'd maybe just send DH to the funeral. I might also call another OB office to see if they could do an ultrasound sooner. 🤷🏻♀️
