Update on the Future Legacies...

Since there are a few of us online that are pregnant, I thought this might be a great place for us to keep everyone up to date on our progress.

I'm having my 12 week check tomorrow. I'll post my update then.

Ladies, how is your morning sickness coming along? Are you done yet?

Sherra how did your appointment go? Are you and your husband hoping to find out the sex of the baby before hand or just wait until the birth?

I hope everything went well at your doctors appointment

Hey ladies! I haven't been on here in a while, so I had no idea that you were pregnant, Sherra. Congratulations!!!!! I had awful morning sickness and it just really went away this week (week 17). I hope that you're feeling well. Your doctor's appointment will be fun -- you'll get to hear the heartbeat. I'm a dork, but I made my husband record it. I make everyone listen to it and they all pretend that it's the most fascinating thing that they've ever heard. My u/s is on September 10th. I can't wait. I want a girl soooo bad!!!

L&L,
Ashley

Ashley,
How far along are you? Are you and your husband going to find out the sex of the baby on the 10th? I'll be hoping for that little legacy.

I am 17 1/2 weeks. I am definitely going to find out the sex on the 10th! I don't have the patience to wait until its born. Besides, I've been looking at nursery bedding, etc., and it's just no fun looking at things not knowing what I'm having. There's nothing gender neutral that I've liked so far.

I did feel the baby move recently. It was weird. It felt like I was being tickled from the inside. Last Sunday in church, the baby was moving like crazy when we were singing. It loves to dance just like me!

Well my appointment went wonderfully. Our baby is very healthy and has no signs of downs or spina bifida. YAY! The sonogram was very thorough so we got a lot of great pictures, including a 3-D that looks awesome. Of course, I never get to keep those. The proud papa always steals them until I get another one.

Yes we want to know what it is. We really want our first to be a boy, but I'm perfectly happy with a Legacy of my own.

I think we only care that the baby is healthy. We have another sono every 2 weeks because we are high risk. So hopefully we will see genitalia again in the upcoming month that is very distinguishable. Otherwise in 4-6 weeks we have another major sono that should tell us.

Yay Sherra! I'm so happy that everything went so well for you!!

ASUADPi · #8 08-11-2004, 08:57 AM

Sherra,
I'm so glad everything went well.

I will definately be keeping you and your baby in my thoughts with you being high risk. If you don't mind me asking, how come your pregnancy is considered high risk?

As soon as you know the sex, you will definately have to let us know.

I had two blod clots in my lungs last september from the birth control I was on. They developed in only 3 months to a size that shocked even the radiologist. I got very lucky that my dr went with his instinct and sent me for testing. After several months, I no longer had blood clots. But because pregnancy has the same hormones, only in larger amounts, we are high risk. I do injections of blood thinners twice a day, have my blood tested every week to 2 weeks, see the dr. every 2 weeks and will be induced 2 weeks early to ensure that I dont' go into labor while I'mon the thinners. That could increase my chances of bleeding out.

Besides that, Everything is great!

Isn't it wonderful, how many gains have been made in helping healthy babies being born! Our Lord is SOOOO good!!

Tigger & Sherra, you're both on my prayer list - I have this call to pray for pregnant women. Let's hear it for easy & safe pregnancies, deliveries, and babies!!

Tggrsluv2bnce · #11 08-11-2004, 02:48 PM
