CALLING ALL WOMEN OF STRENGTH!! New Thread 2-3-11

[dnikki0928]

A strong woman works out every day to keep her body in shape…
But a woman of strength builds relationships to keep her soul in shape.
A strong woman isn't afraid of anything…
But a woman of strength shows courage in the midst of fear.
A strong woman won't let anyone get the better of her…
But a woman of strength gives the best of herself to everyone.
A strong woman makes mistakes and avoids the same in the future…
A woman of strength realizes life's mistakes can also be unexpected blessings and capitalizes on them.
A strong woman wears a look of confidence on her face…
But a woman of strength wears grace.
A strong woman has faith that she is strong enough for the journey…
But a woman of strength has faith that it is in the journey that she will become strong.

Rachjas- I had morning sickness from like 6-8 weeks, but barely...! Guess I'm getting lucky this time around, hehe! ;) I just feel completely different this time around, totally different then when I was pregnant with the girls, and I know each pregnancy is different but it just amazes me at how different each one can actually be! :)  Can't wait to hear your update from your apmt on Monday! I know you're anxious to see that lil bean! ;) How are you feeling?
Guesito- The baby's room is adorable! :) I'm glad the contractions have stopped, what a relief!! Wow, you're good! You've already got your bags packed?! I didn't pack mine till like a few days before I was set to have her, lol! You're on it! ;) 7 weeks will be here before you know it!
************************************************************************************************************************************
Guesito: Oh my, I hope you stay contraction free! As for the backaches, be careful because you could be contracting in your back (back labor), keep an eye on it. Also, be sure to tell your massage therapist of the GD and high blood pressure and contractions. Chances are (sorry!) that you will not be able to get a massage. I am a massage therapist and if you have any of those, we require a note from your OBGYN stating it's okay to recieve a massage. I'm not sure of the massage licensing laws in FL, but here in OH we are the strictest state and the hardest tested state throughout the U.S. Rest up and make sure you are drinking enough water.

Luvkayln: 12wks?!! Geesh! It seems like just yesterday you told us! I'm glad you aren't having much morning sickness...although we are relieved to get it, it's just rough lol! We got hit by the same snow storm you guys did - except here we got at least 1-2 inches of ice. It was nasty out.

Rachjas: How is the zofran working for you? I had it with DD but quit taking it when it made me sooo completely constipated (TMI sorry!). Ginger ale works really well and small amounts of carbs at a time, like toast or small bagel and such. Hope all is well and I can't wait until all the papers are finalized!

trh: Almost there!!! How are you feeling? Are you getting really excited yet? I can't wait to see pictures!!!

Has anyone heard from Keyan lately? The last I heard was she needed a biopsy and haven't heard anything yet...

AFM: Well, Peyton turned 1 yesterday... :-( I can't believe how fast time has gone by!!! She is walking everywhere and getting into everything lol!!! She's getting so big too, she has her 1 year well check next Tuesday. Besides the ice storm we had here, we are all doing well. DH went out and bought a generator in case we lost power b/c of all the ice accumulation, but thankfully it didn't go out. We are expecting more snow this weekend and again Monday and Tuesday. Oh joy lol! I'm ready for warmer weather!!! I hope you all are doing well!!

Hugs, Love and SSBD to all :-)

My goodness it has been forever since I have logged into Medhelp. I've just been super busy!

How is everyone doing?

Conner will be 7 months the 17th, I never realized how fast they grow :( it makes me sad! He's a big boy, weighing 19 lbs 2 ozs and 27 inches long! But after all the scares while I was pregnant concerning his brain and heart everything is fine and he's a healthy baby!!

As for myself I have been doing great! We got a HUGE surprise this past Saturday, I'm pregnant!!! After all these years and all the fertility stuff with Conner and boom it happens just like that!?! We are really excited just nervous with my history of loses. But my Ob did put me on Progesterone since I was on that with Conner. My estimated due date is Oct 2nd!

I hope this finds you all well and I'm going to have to check in more often!

Uploaded a few recent pics of Conner if you wanna take a look <3

mlward: I too don't know what the hemorrhage is. Did the doc explain it to you at all? Just rest as much as possible and drink plenty of water. Keep your butt in bed lol!!! How are you feeling otherwise?

Ad: OMGosh!!! What a suprise!! Are you around 6wks then? Congratulations :-D How are you feeling?

[ad_06]

Yeah around 6 weeks...the dr said between 4-6, but with may calculations 6 weeks today! I feel pretty good...Just tired, but that is expected! It really was a TOTAL surprise!! lol

[krichar]

I had my first OB appointment yesterday. It as more of a meet and greet. They weighed me, checked my blood pressure and booked my next u/s. We didn't use the Doppler or measure, she just asked my concerns and I brought up my racing heart. She said I was high risk because of my age and the fact it was ivf, never mind my 2 losses. SO she said they will watch me closely for diabetes and high blood pressure. We booked my next u/s for 2 weeks from now ( feb. 18) hopefully baby will cooperate and we will find out the sex.... So excited!

Guesito- how are you doing? Haven't heard from you in awhile and just wanted to make sure baby is staying put! Have you been resting lots?

Luvkayln- 12 weeks already...? Time sure flies for everyone else but me, lol! I know I am progressing at the same speed but it feels like it is dragging for me... Lol!

[rachjas0623]

krichar- Sound like your appointment went great! You are going to be finding out the gender sooo soon!

ad_06- That is AWESOME news!

AFM- We meet with Baby C's BM again this past week. It went amazing as always! Still haven't heard from the courts about a date yet... grr! Our third ultrasound is Monday! I will update ASAP!
