Such good news yianna! I'm currently letting my toddler shred a package of dried out wipes and have NO idea what I'm making for dinner. So basically I definitely need a cook and a maid. I'm also a dummy and scheduled my grocery pick up for between 7-8pm. Wtaf fuck was I thinking. Sounds like you need a pregnancy Brian.

Hi. I still go here. yianna all things crossed for your sister and her wee one. AFM- I would like to be able to fall asleep at night. It's never been easy but lately I'm laying awake for at least an hour before I finally fall asleep and it sucks.

Oh I just saw a great story on fb.
TW though:
A photographer from a city in my province posted about how a couple had booked a newborn session with her. She had just heard from them that they had lost their baby. But, They wanted to give their $200 deposit to a family that had experienced loss before, in order to photograph their rainbow baby.
It broke my heart.

Leaf 🌱 That. Sounds. Horrible. If I even brush against mine too hard with my shirt, I feel like I could die. You poor soul.

Leaf 🌱 OMG -- I think I may just have to switch to waxing now that I've heard that story... Did it stop? Quick update: Isabella's HR keeps going down, randomly. The scan this morning looks good, but my sis is getting her second round of steroids and the goal is one more week. Sis will also get a bag of Mag prior to delivery, and after delivery... so once they hang that, she knows it's nearly go time. As much as I want her to go another week, my gut says baby will be here this weekend - but what do I know - I'm not a doctor, I'm not even there, but it just seems so 'dire' in a way.. I feel bad - once I'm pregnant and through the first tri - I have no issues. It's just not fair she's going through this, she waited sooo long for this baby. Ugh.

I had my NT scan + 12w appointment today. There seems to be some discrepancy with dates which is frustrating but only 5 days difference so I guess not too big of a deal.
When the phlebotomist was taking my blood, it was like trying to get blood from a stone. It took so long for her to get just half of a vial. She kept saying "You're dehydrated, you need to drink more water. Do you hate water?" No, I love water, but I throw up every time I drink water. So I'm officially on Operation Hydration. It was scary to see how dehydrated I was so I need to try harder.

Boob update: trolls bandaid is working quite well. I'm never shaving anything again due to what is likely PTSD. Sorry DH.
Anddddd I just got asked if I was an intern. I can't decide if I should be flattered or offended 🤔

katietopaz I felt flutters a week or so ago (like 10.5-11 weeks), but told myself I was insane. But this was like a clear stab. So who know. I feel like, if it makes you feel better, why not think it? That's true! I also felt a little vindicated this morning at my NT scan, because baby was 100% hanging out over on the right side, where I've been feeling flutters. So maybe I'm not totally crazy?

This is kind of a TMI post but I didn't want to start a new thread because it's embarrassing. The last two times I peed, there was a tinge of pink on the toilet paper after wiping. There's nothing in the toilet or in my underwear. I've had diarrhea the past couple of days and I have hemorrhoids since having DS so I'm thinking maybe it's that? What do we think? Sorry for the gross post.

smilesp if you can't confirm exactly where the blood is coming from I'd go get checked for a UTI. I got a few last time I was KU and usually didn't know I had them. Have you had sex recently? That could cause it too.

Sorry for the gross post. *more TMI* I woke up the other day to a small spot of blood in my underwear and panicked for a second. Then I took a deep breath and realized my labia was irritated (from a mosquito bite) and I had and apparently I scratched it raw overnight.

I had so much spotting through first trimester that these TMI are not scary too me. BUT even tho I'm semi used to it, I keep hoping it's quit. It's been a couple days now, so I suppose this weekend I'll have more and of course I'll freak out at first sight.

Sorry for the gross post. Pregnancy is TMI, so go ham. I've had a lot of spotting this pregnancy, it could easily be the diarrhea, the hemorrhoids, cervical irritation (from ANY kind of pelvic stimulation, grumblegrumble), UTI, or something else entirely that isn't necessarily something to fret too much over. If it keeps up for a day or two, make a call in to your doctor. They can help determine the cause and hopefully give you something to help (whether that be meds or behaviours).

So far, sis and her baby are stable. So the prayers and positive thoughts are working! Last week I posted about keeping my original OB appt at the OB I have seen since forever... I'm definitely breaking up with them, but I did go and go to see my little gummy bear jumping all over the place. So I'm relieved and have officially past all my loss milestones Interesting though, I have 3 SCH. They are SMALL, but dang it. I'm not bleeding, thankfully, but the sonographer said that she sees SCH 7/10 of the first tri ultrasounds she does. That it is actually more rare to not have them, then to have them. Huh. Who would have thought?

Just a reminder that anyone with a negative blood type may need to go get a rhogam shot if you're spotting!

I have the busy body-est neighbors ever. We live in a neighborhood of mostly retired folks and they're super sweet, we love it here. But they keep being nosy about us giving DS a sibling, especially because my BFF (who also lives in the neighborhood) is 23 weeks and our first kiddos are only 3 weeks apart. Give me one more week and then I won't have to lie to your face, sweet old ladies!
Also, I spent...well over an hour last night looking through pregnancy announcement ideas for inspiration last night. Our plan is to announce in a week-ish.
