We had a name for our son by 22/24 weeks...this time...not so much!  LOL!  Good luck to you and hope she arrives on her own!  My Orig. DD was August 25th, but then I had an Ultrasound and it said August 20th...so we are shooting for something in between.  It changes with every ultrasound up and down.  I will have another Ultrasound here at some point...my OB wasn't sure when just yet.  I am about 28 weeks.  (I see my ticker isn't working now...guess I will have to try and fix that!)  :)

Sometimes if it isn't first morning urine there isn't enough hcg to show a positive...so if you took it this morning it has built up overnight to get your positive!  Congrats!  First morning urine is the most accurate...but not always necessary!  

Start your vitamins if you haven't already and schedule an appt with your Dr!  :)

I'm at almost 4 months my son has weight gain issues but they don't believe it's wls related. Women in third world countries who are truly malnourished and starving still breastfeed fat plump babies.

Ok now I don't even know what to say bought the digital pregnancy test and that one says not pregnant but the other two showed a faint pink line!!! My sis in law says its because my hormone levels probably aren't high enough yet! Has anyone ever had this happen to them or known someone that got two positives with a faint pink line and then did the digital and it said not pregnant?!?

Uneventful....lol  Cervix is slightly softened but no dilation and still thick. I have another appt next week and if I do not deliver by due date of June 8th (next Saturday) then they offered/would like to schedule an induction for that following Monday, June 10th. We will see but I plan on walking and trying all the wives tales to see if I can have her before then. We do have a name but keeping it a "secret' for now.... Our son was nameless until the day we left hospital and even then we ended up with a name not even on our list. LOL

 

I can't imagine having to deal with an autoimmune disorder on top of pregnancy so good luck to you. I have pretty bad anemia that has caused issues but know it could be worse. Good Luck on a name...I know it is rough! When is your due date?

How did your appointment go today?  I don't blame you on the induction...I really didn't want that with my son...thankfully he came before hand! (40 Weeks 3 Days). They gave me some pinto in since labor slowed a bit...I ended up with an epidural.  More so for my husband than myself...he begged me to just get one!  Lol!  

I am hanging in there...just did the Gestational Diabetes test on Tues. ...was a little rough, but we made it.  Haven't got the results yet though.  My autoimmune disease has been rough this pregnancy, but I have a great Dr who has been very helpful!  Baby is breech and I have been having some contractions.  Dr. Said I will be having another ultrasound here at some point, she just wasn't quite sure when yet.  Other than that...pretty non eventful..which is good!  :)

Cant wait to see pictures of your little girl!  Your son is a cutie....so I am sure she will be adorable!  Do you have a name for her yet?  We are still looking!  Our babe might be coming home nameless!

Hi!  Fellow DSer here.  Both of my babies measured about 2 weeks behind.  I delivered a 6 lb 11 oz (came 2 weeks early) and a 6 lb 2 oz (came on due date), 2 girls, 2 different pregnancies.  They were both totally fine.  I also didn't really gain much, but I expected this.  I think with each, I gained a total of 15 lbs.  Within a few weeks of delivery, I was down about 30.  I just made sure to constantly nibble.  I also allowed myself to have carbs, which is what your body needs to stay out of ketosis.  I had my lab work done every 2 months and I actually had to get iron infusions.  I also consulted with Vitalady as far as my labs went.  The babies took what they needed first, which left me a bit exhausted.  Overall, I had really great pregnancies and entirely natural (no meds) births.  My second baby, we checked out within 12 hours of her birth.  My favorite protein, is NOW whey protein isolate, unflavored.  This didn't make me feel sick and I could add my own flavors and sweeteners.

I agree....a line is a line. I had to almost cross my eyes to see the one on this pregnancy but it was there. I bought a digital the next day and sure enough the word pregnant popped up....shock of my life, but awesome. It was early too and I took a dollar store test and got the positive so I would say congrats! Keep us posted once you confirm at doctor.
