May Babies!

September 03, 2008

Well, I just found out yesterday that I am preggo and now I am looking to unite my pregnancy buddies. If your due in May come on over!

I hope we all have a happy and healthy 9 months!

September 03, 2008

Hey Rachel!!

How are things going?

I was completely blown away from the positive yesterday. I hadn't the slightest idea and I on CD 53 (but I ovulate late in my cycle so it all evens out). Just called today and schedule my first appointment on the 25th!! Really really excited by now but I don't feel much different other than a horrible backache.. I feel like I've been slouching for years and its just catching up to me.

How are you feeling today?

September 03, 2008

Hey, not feeling too bad today. Just excited and nervous and wondering if every little thing I am feeling is from being pregnant! LOL. I still can not believe it! Today when I POAS the pregnant line can up as the pee was going across it! I was so excited! I have taken 4 tests so far just trying to convince myself. I waited for so long to see that silly little line I just love watching it come up over and over again!

I have been feeling just slightly light headed, bladder feels a little funny - not peeing a lot yet though, my hips have been killing me and my back seems to hurt all night long. But you know what? I don't care! I am loving every minute of it... every ache and pain reminds me of my little one! I had gotten to that point where I was starting to wonder if this was ever going to happen, so yesterday was one of the best days of my life!

September 03, 2008

I'm in :) I'm due on May 7th!!!!!

September 04, 2008

Yeah.. I'm so excited to be posting in here.

I'm due May 13th (give or take a day)

The lower back pain is feeling better.. I as lifting quite a bit of stuff yesterday so I may have strained something.. I'm not cramping in my tummy so that makes me feel 100% better.

I think I'm just moving right along.

I'm going next week (Wed or Thurs) for my Beta #'s.

I've been taking tests every day to check if lines are getting darker and so far so good.

I am pretty tired, have headaches and a tad bit of nausea but it is easing up.. which scares me.

I feel better when I'm sick! :)

I've just been praying my little heart out asking for a healthy and full term pregnancy.

How are you guys doing?

September 04, 2008

Hey guys, how are you all feeling? I am not doing too bad, just more of the same symptoms I have been having.

I am really excited, my first prenatal is on September 18th at 2:40. I am really looking forward to it! I'm also glad because I don't need to have a pap due to the fact that I just had one a couple of months ago.

Does anyone know about when you get to have your first ultrasound?

September 04, 2008

Congrats Rachel!

When i was pg i got my 1'st u/s when i was just about 10 weeks. and that was for both my pregnancies. But it's different for each dr. GL and **stickyglue**

September 04, 2008

HELLO! ladies well i am due on the 3rd of may:)

i have had all my betas done and just waiting for my u/s in 2 weeks. CONGRATS to all the ladies here and cant wait to share pics of our growing bellies. rachel like jilly said it really depends on your doctor. morning sickness is starting to kick in nothing to bad just feel a little sea sick:) how is everyone else doing?

September 04, 2008

There are a ton of May babies!!

I just scheduled my first appointment too and that's when you should get your first ultrasound. I'm not quite sure how far a long I am due to some confusion at the Dr.'s. I actually got a negative there on CD 38 and gave up for the month but still didn't get a period and tested again on CD 52 and got the positive so I maybe actually be the due the end of April.

Hows everyone feeling today?

The only thing I noticed is a bit less energy and some heartburn that comes and goes.. at least my backache is easing up that is the pits!

Keep hydrated ladies!

September 06, 2008

Hey Ladies, just checking up to see how all of you are feeling. I am not doing too bad at all, the afternoons are the time I feel about the best. The rest of the day I am a little queasy and fatigued. I have been having to pee a lot more... but I think some of that may be that I have been focusing on getting more fluids. The most annoying part is that I always have to pee at about 5:30 or 6:00 am, then when I go back to bed I can't get back to sleep. So that also might have something to do with the fatigue. lol. Round and round we go!

I am loving ever minute of this experience though. The aches, fatigue and nausea just reminds me that my body is gearing up to build my baby(s). :)

So, tell me, what has been up with all of you? Any new crazy symptoms showing up for any of you? This has been such a fun and exciting process so far... it will be great to watch all of us grow!

September 06, 2008

congrats to u both:) have a H&H 9 months!!

September 06, 2008

I'm feeling much better..

I started using Gas-X and that literally helped me so much. I was in so much pain with gas and constipation.

My thoat is feeling a little better but still hurts. My fever is still low grade. I'll be happy when the Strep is GONE.

I'm just trying to take it easy.

I'm the same Rach.. just a tad bit nauseous, tired, breast tenderness and a little bit crampy but just mild.

I've been testing every other day just to make sure line is getting darker and it is... the test line is darker than the control line so that makes me feel better.

I'm ready for my first appt.

September 06, 2008

I haven't felt all that much tired yet and its starting to worry me. I do have a little one already and maybe just too busy to even think about it but I don't feel much but gassy and a nasty backache that comes and goes.

September 06, 2008

Hi everyone.. I'm due April 11.. Alittle sooner than all of you but looking to share some symptoms!! Congrats to all of you:)And Stephanie, I'm so happy to see you in here, I know how disappointed you were the month before, YAY!!!

September 06, 2008

Oh and Stephanie, or whoever else is having problems with constipation... You have to get MiraLax.. Its safe to take everyday and I swear it is a miracle... Nothing ever helps me and I am always taking so much metamucil everyday, which doesnt do much but bloat you up.. This new stuff, you could only get thru perscription now you can buy it anywhere.. Its kinda pricey, like 20$ a jug and if taken correctly will last about a month but well worth it... Trust me, I am so happy about this, you don't even know, haha...

September 06, 2008

Thank you for the insight on the Miralax Tanya...

I've just been sooo gassy, Gas X has done the trick for me as far as that goes but I'm still really constipated. I go from being constipated to having diareaa.. I mean COME ON...

But it is so hard to complain when you are so thankful just to be here! :)

September 07, 2008

Woke up feeling much better today (as far as strep goes) feeling more nausea this morning than the other days, breast still hurting, swollen and HEAVY, cramping is little to mild so I feel soooo much better. I think things are going well.

I'm really looking forward to my first Dr. Appt.

How is everyone else feeling?

I've been taking tests every other day just to ease my mind and they all turn out much darker than the control line.

So I think I can relax for a little while. :)

September 07, 2008

Im glad to hear your doing well steph. and darker tests are a good sign as well. Im sure everything will be fine and u will see that little heartbeat soon:)

September 07, 2008

I don't want to come off sounding terribly paranoid but I don't really feel all that pregnant. I've taken two tests and they both popped up positive before 15 seconds but the only complaint I have is nasty backaches and gas! Ha, how embarrassing but I'm not all that tired yet, my boobs aren't hurting. I have had miscarriages before and I did have a successful pregnancy I just don't feel like I am.... its making me sad!

September 07, 2008

aww Naketa don't feel that way hun. Sometimes it takes a while to even get symptoms. I know for me it was about 5-almost 6 weeks till i started to feel really sick. Give your body time hun. But if your really worried get a beta. I know i will once i get pg again. GL hun ((hugs))

September 07, 2008

sorry i was 7 weeks when i started to get really sick. before that, i just felt a little naseated after i ate something.. but not bad at all. so disreguard the 5-6 weeks.lol i was 7 for sure.

September 07, 2008

Good morning ladies, i hope that you all are doing wonderful. my m/s has kicked in now and throwing up at the sight and smell of anything and everything:) other then that i am ok. u/s in a couple of days, so we are all very excited.

Naketa everything will be fine.. it does take a couple of weeks to feel pg, think positive:) it took me up till 8 weeks with all my pregnancies and this one it kicked in at 6 weeks.

September 07, 2008

Naketa, don't worry too much, every woman's body reacts differently to pregnancy. And... from what I can tell each pregnancy that a woman has is different from the last.

I have gone from feeling hungry all the time to not feeling like eating anything. My mum-in-law fed me some rice and cooked garden carrots and that was the first thing that sat good all day. My gag reflex kicked in today. I was eating something and all of the sudden my body was like that is digusting. The funny thing is that it was something I used to enjoy.

Hmm... what else, I guess just all the usual things: peeing a lot, backache, fatigue, emotional, sore breasts, brick in stomach syndrome, etc, etc. lol. I am starting to wonder if there is more than one baby in there due to all the hormones. I bought a maternity bra today because my boobs are getting so big already. I also bought a little pairof shoes and a board book. Lol... shopping syndrome doesn't go away with pregnancy.

I am glad to hear that all of you are not doing too bad. Nicole, I hope you don't have to throw up to many times during your pregnancy... that is never fun. I am also glad to hear that you are starting to feel better Steph... I can imagine the strep and not being able to take anything!
