had a He** of a checkup last Thursday!

So, of course I am feeling great, no morning sickness, nothing... but the Ob visits are HORRIBLE. Very gloomy and guarded, why can't the nurses and docs be HAPPY? Anyway, they try to find a heartbeat with a doppler thingy, nothing. All over, nothing. Doc is very sad and says 'Well, maybe it's expired..." i was upset and insisted every thing was great, i FEEL great, and I think the baby is happy and alive and feeling good too...

She sadly says she'll do an ultrasound and says she'll be right back.
I'm still in the stirrups, backside to the world, you know?
The nurse wheels in the ultrasound machine and leaves me.
I sit there and WAIT.
For 25 MINUTES.
She left me in the stirrups with the news that baby expired for 25 MINUTES by MYSELF!


BABY IS FINE. Beautiful, waving wee arms and legs around, big tummy, heartbeat, looking great!

The whole visit took three hours. yeesh.

I'm 12 weeks along and loving every second. I just had a stillbirth at 8 months in october.. so I had a grand total of three months between pregnancies... I have a HUGE BIG OLD belly... and I AM LOVING IT!!!


Happy gestating, everyone!

Congrats!!!! We usually tell at least my parents by 8 weeks. I can't hide the morning sickness from my kids so they know as soon as I get a +test.

littlefarm_bighappy, what a horrible thing to do to you! why make you wait that long after saying something could be wrong. I'm glad baby was perfect!

We told our parents as soon as I got the positive test...2 days after I missed my monthly...at midnight.

I probably would have taken a test sooner except that a week and a half earlier I had a negative blood test (they tested me b/c I needed to go on steroids for an allergic reaction), so I wasn't expecting to be preggo that month. That test was quite a surprise even though we were trying!

ETA: DH made me take 6 pregnancy tests in the next 2 days before he believed it.

littlefarm_bighappy, I'm so glad everything's ok for you! and disgusted at the medics for the way they handled that.

as for telling my family - my brother knew at 9 weeks because he asked why I'd been ambulanced in to hospital (miscarried one of the 2 babies). I told my mother at around 12 weeks - when it was finally confirmed that I was still pregnant.

my cousins, aunts etc only found out last week - at 25 weeks. Didn't want to make a big deal of it, especially until I was far enough along that they would try to save him at the hospital if something went wrong.
Besides, most of them don't care about me so why bother informing them?

Fiance's family - his mum and dad knew at around 12 weeks. His birth family still don't know.

After just losing a baby, they treat you like that? I'd be looking for another OB practice... and I seriously would like to

the OB for saying that to you and then leaving you hanging.

So glad the baby is fine. Too bad he/she wasn't flipping them the bird when they did the ultrasound...
