Flamingogirl- I have been feeling tired but not sleepy, nausea has hit about afternoon/night now hard for me to eat. had a few bathroom runs at work luckily nobody saw or questioned as we haven't told anyone not even our parents this time, we want to wait. went out with my brother and they all drinking I had juice and felt bad bc I lied and said i was drinking vodka with orange juice LOL. they had a few already before we got there so no more questions were asked and all night they didn't even know not even the next day when we talked. LOL. but other symptoms I have is bad bloating, and the usually symptoms. other than that I smile because just means baby is still growing. DH is starting to get morning sickness now LOL. How are you feeling? how amazing it is to start feeling baby move!! my ultrasound is sept 26th so I hope we get to see the heartbeat as I will be 6 weeks 3 days, if not as long as baby is growing.

dragonfly- omg its soon! cant wait either to hear your birth story!......so close to October that it reminds me of my angel baby! for every thankful I am pregnant with my rainbow baby now!! get those bags packed girl!!!

DiviniumLiv- I hope it works for you! I did the yellow maca , the 1st month we did the one with all 3 yellow, black, and red. For me just the yellow helped me more. You have to see which works best for you everyone is different! best of luck!

DiviniumLiv, i use the red maca powder. Got pregnant both times within 2 months of taking it. I blend a smoothie every day and add 2 tsp to it. I still take it pregnant. Love it. It doesnt taste as bad if you blend it with something. I use the powder cause i read it is not gelatinized like the capsules and work better. It sounds like any of it works though. Good luck.

@Beaut1ful38. Bags are packed, just need to pack the essentials when the time comes. I'm a bit nervous as it is the anticipation of when it will happen as I was a week late with my daughter and was supposed to be induced that morning around 9:00am but she ended up arriving around 4:30 (sad I don't remember the exact time ) but I'm sure I can find out. I hope your ultrasound goes well and that they find the heartbeat. I hope to post a few more belly pictures before he makes his grand entrance.

@FlamingoGirl13. Looking at your ticker, hard to believe that in a few weeks you will be halfway. Time sure flies by.

So, hubby and I have been discussing names and we agreed but now we are disagreeing on the spelling. He wants it to be unique and I want it the standard way. I did make a point that he got to choose our girls name and spelling that he even agreed that I had a point. Should I fight him tooth and nail on his (baby) spelling? Or somehow come to an agreement where we both like the spelling? One last thing, I'm not sure if some of you saw my discussion about my girlfriend and her pregnancy. But she ended up loosing the baby at 4.5 months as the baby had so many things wrong and the chances of survival were very low to non-existence. My heart broke for her but now I am slightly traumatized as not only did she tell me she lost him (it was a boy), she sent me pictures of him. I'm about to hold my son in a matter of three weeks or less and I can't shake the picture of her baby out of my memory. How do people get passed that?

Dragonfly, im sure you will come to an agreement on the spelling. If he chose spelling of dd, i would chose for your son.I dont have that problem. Lol. Bf doesnt want anything to do with a name so it is all me. As to the friend and the pic, she didn't mean to make it difficult for you. Imagine what she is going through and for her to show you, you must be close to her or she thought she could confide in you. Grieving processes are different for everyone. My friend lost twin boys at 26 wks and i saw the pics. There was a whole roll of them. It was sad to look at but i remembered it was about her and she needed me. When you hold your son hopefully that will be the last thing on your mind. Ppl do things when they are grieving that may not be the right thing for others but just remember, you do have a healthy baby that will be here soon and she doesn't. I hope you find a way to get passed it and still be there for your friend. I am sorry you have anxiety over this. Praying you dont stress to much...

@Beaut1ful38 - You're ultrasound is tomorrow! So excited for you! It's wonderful to feel baby move! I felt him/her for the first time on Friday just for a little bit and then the last two days I've felt movement before I go to bed. Today I've been feeling it more often and I'm excited for it to continue and grow. When was your DH able to feel baby move on the outside? Mine is anxious to feel or hear baby move.

Flamingogirl- yes my ultrasound is tomorrow. I was crying early bc I’m nervous but also excited. As it is the same time frame as we had our loss the last time. But DH says we are good he feels it! Plus my symptoms have gotten more intense. Morning sickness hits me at night which is good. Today it was almost all day. Dizzy spells tonight.
I am not sure if it was 4-5 months when he felt it. It’s been so long ago. Haha! But he would always talk to my belly and as I got bigger he likes to put remote or anything on my belly to see it jump up LOL! I’m excited and will sure post my pic tomorrow it’s in the morning at 9am so that’s exciting!! Does your DH have symptoms???

@Beaut1ful38. Good luck at your ultrasound tomorrow. I am sure it will go great. Please let us know how it goes.

@Beaut1ful38 - Good luck with the ultrasound!

AFM - I'm at cd 10 and are starting to feel the symptoms of ovulation happening within a week. Hopefully sooner rather than later, since my husband's only home during the weekend. He's working this week and also next week too, and works out of town.

@Beauti1ful38 - At one point he said he was having sympathy cramps I think! lol! He likes to talk to my belly too and is always putting his ear on it to see if he can hear anything baby related. It's very sweet! Can't wait to see your ultrasound update .

@DivniniumLiv - Fingers crossed you ovulate while your DH is home!

Well baby is measuring 6weeks and 2 days which is fine and we heard and saw the baby heartbeat!!! It’s beating at 114bpm
