Newlife and Diva, I just said a prayer for the both of you and your babies. Its in His hands...just know that everything will be alright, where ever the path may lead. PLEASE both of you update us tomorrow. I will be thinking about you both all day. God Bless to all...

Newlife, you are in my thoughts and prayers as well. I wish you the best of luck that the baby will be OK.

I've never felt like I could be healthy and pregnant....until I lost all this weight. Hubby and I are now trying to start a family. At age 38 with blocked fallopian tubes and ovarian cysts this might be a long road. But, I know I'm better off without all that extra weight I've been carrying. Wish me luck!!:frown:

Hello all,

Our first baby appointment was yesterday and all went well! I am so grateful that we were able to see the heartbeat and the baby was moving and growing well. Tears of absolute joy and gratitude to God.

I hope you are all doing well out there. Newlife, we're worried about you girl....no matter what happens, we are here and thinking of you.

Hugs.

Diva, a huge smile was on my face as I read your post. What a nice and joyful first app. Congrats!!

Newlife, I hope all is well with you. We are still praying that everything will be OK. Hope to hear from you soon.

Nymoosic, best of luck to you. I have a blocked tube, PCOS and this "weight issue", but I also want to be a mom REAL BAD some day too. Looks like you are heading in the right direction...congrats on the weight loss Many baby wishes to you and everyone else ttc. Keep us posted!!

you guys are wonderful thank you!

diva-got shivers when I read your news! So wonderful!! such a blessing these little ones are! after all we have been through with our weight!

I saw my OB today because spotting started again but she took a look and things look ok. Last week upon exam my cervix was slightly dialted and she noted stringy tissue but this week it has closed up nice and tight and she said as far as visual inspection it looked good-no loose tissue. I will have my HCG levels tested tomorrow and that will really tell us if things are going well. I will keep you posted!!

thank you all so much for your kind works and prayers!!

Hi everyone! Sorry, I wanted to respond a few days ago, but work and home life has been so busy! Newlife, we are all thrilled you're doing ok for the moment! Any more news on that front?

I had some spotting after my pelvic exam at our 1st appointment, so I freaked and called the OBGYN, was told that if I could get rid of it in 1 wipe of the tp, then all was good, and it ended in a few hours, so thank goodness! It was barely anything, just a few drops, but I haven't had any bleeding at all, so it scared me. Doc said it was definitely just irritation from the appointment, he noted my cervix had "bucked" a bit when touched with the probe. Did you ladies know that your cervix can instinctively flex and tighten if it senses a threat to baby? Kinda cool.

How was everyone's New Years? Hubby and I went to dinner with my parents and brother, then were falling asleep on the couch by 11pm. We managed to watch the new year and seal it with a kiss, but were in bed shortly after. I guess my days of getting dressed up and going out with the girls to an expensive night club are over...that's ok! Hee hee. I'll have a 4 month old by this time next year, so maybe I can take a few hours next New Year's Eve and hit the town with the girls for my first night away from the baby. It seems that most of my friends had 3 or 4 month olds before they would spare a few hours out. I have everything I ever wanted right now with a baby on the way and a wonderful marriage, so life is good.

I wish us all much success and happiness in 2009.

Newlife, my thoughts and prayers are certainly with you. I had a devastating miscarraige five years ago, so I can certainly sympathize. If it provides a glimmer of hope I will tell you that when I miscarried, the cramps were not just normal cramps. They were VERY severe and I was only 7 1/2 weeks. If yours are not that bad, maybe it's a good sign. I wish you luck and strength. Even if the news ends up being good, the rollercoaster of emotions is really tough.***HUGS***

you guys are so great! thank you so much for all of your support! so we have good news. My HCG levels went up Wednesday, not a huge jump but up none the less which is a good sign. becuase they were rising so slowly my OB did want to do a US to make sure all looked well. There he/she was a little dot with heart pounding away at 140beats per min. All looks good :biggrin: I still have occasional spotting, nothing too alarming, it's not even red just light pink and only once and awhile on TP so we are cautiosly optomistic and taking it a day at a time. I'm feeling like I can enjoy my pregnancy more now. The past week I havn't wanted to write minteh baby journal or talk about my crazings this that and the other because I was trying to detach myself from it in case I was loosing it. Anyhow as I said we are cautiosly optomisitc and hoping and praying for a less eventful 8months! I havn't been stressing over my weight for the last week or so either, seemed rather trivial with the danger at hand. Although I'm happy to report that I'm sitt'n pretty at 216.5 :confused: I was 215 when I tested positive and over the first few weeks went up to 218. Now over the past 2weeks I've gone down a few lbs. I'm watching it closely now and trying not to pack on the lbs with this pregnancy but I also want to make sure I'm healthy. although I just can't get enough MILK and junior mints! lol I was never one to have a glass of milk and now I'm drinking 3glasses a day!:tongue: lol. Well everyone keep the posts com'n they are too few and far between!!
