Anatomy scan

Last week I had my anatomy scan and LO looked great!

We also found out that it's a girl!

The doctor mentioned that I have placenta previa and have to go back for an u/s at 28wks to see if it moved at all otherwise I will have to have a c-section.

Here are some pictures of little Ava:)

15wk appt

I had a great appt on Friday. All of my blood test results came back negative for any disease or genetic disorder, I'm immune to all the things I need to be and the NT Scan revealed a 1 in 10000 chance of downs syndrome vs the 1 in 800 based on my age alone. MW said they don't see a need for an amnio.

I found out that I have an anterior placenta and my MW just warned me not to get paranoid if I don't feel the baby right away. She said it could be up to 22 wks before I feel anything and not to worry since I have an extra layer between me and the baby.

She used the doppler and we got to hear the baby's heartbeat. Every single time I hear it it's like the first time:)

I scheduled my big u/s for 9/28. I can't wait to see the baby again. I hope the baby corporates so we can see if it's a he or a she!

12wks - 8/12/10

10wks 5 days - 8/3/10

I've already made a couple purchases

I was reading up on some boards that some women bought fetal heartbeat dopplers so I decided I wanted one too. I know I have several weeks before I will be able to even attempt using it but I thought it would be pretty cool to have.

Since my m/c I've kind of used food as a therapy and have unfortunately gained a lot of weight. So now that none of my pants fit me I thought it would be appropriate to buy some maternity leggings since they were on sale at destination maternity!

I can't believe my eyes

Cheri was right about June being the month we conceive and find out!

I am so full of emotions right now. I'm extremely happy and I feel so blessed to have a baby on the way. I also am extremely scared and nervous that we will loose this baby too. I keep praying that this is our take home baby. I don't think I can make it through another loss.

I'm trying to stay positive and think about the little bean growing strong!

The little ones EDD is 2/24/11 which is 5 days after my birthday. This would be the best birthday present ever!

Cheri22 reading

Below is my email of questions to her with her responses in between.

Hi Cheri,

Please see below with the confirmation of my payment. I am sure you received one on your end too. I'm requesting a prediction by pass family. I've included a picture of me and my husband Jared from our wedding which was 8/29/09.

We started trying to conceive in October and got pregnant our first cycle trying. My BFP was 11/19/09 and my EDD was 7/28/10. On 12/30/09 I went in for my 10 week ultra sound and they found an empty sac. Since I was showing no signs of letting go of the pregnancy we opted for a D&C and I went in the next day 12/31/09 for the procedure. My doctor said we only had to wait one cycle before trying again. I'm currently in the middle of my 5th cycle trying to conceive after our loss without any luck yet. I would like to know if/when we will be able to conceive a baby. Also, can you see how many children we will have and when? Can you also tell what the gender(s) would be and anything else about them?
First off all, I am so sorry to hear of your loss! As for next baby to come, they show a baby boy and they relate him to JUNE so this is either birth month, conceive month or the month you find out in. The first thing they also mention is an iron deficiency.. so not sure if this is something you have or your husband, but perhaps just a routine dr appt for tests would be good? Nothing "major" but perhaps this has something to do with ttc?
They show your son as always being full of confidence and the type to believe that he can do anything he sets his mind to.. I really believe that he can. hes not always the fastest one to get things done, but would say that if you took a look at what he hands in,. and what the 'fastest" person did, you will see a HUGE quality difference. With your son, seldom will you ever have to ask him to do something over. He takes pride in his work and anything he has to say he did, is something hes going to do well.

They show him being really musical, I am seeing him wanting to play the drums and like everything else in his life is something hes going to play hard and go "hard core" with. Putting alot of time in practicing and doing what he can to be good at it.

They show him wanting to be in martial arts. Is something that he finds to be a bit more relaxing than one most would think and is actually going to take it more seriously and advance through his belts. Hes even going to be liking tai chi and other forms.
When it comes to career paths they show him linked to being involved in sales. They show him preferring to be involved in the inside more so.

When it comes to marriage, I am seeing him closer to 23. They will have two boys of their own.
GIRL- MAY so this is either birth month, conceive month or the month you find out in.
When ti comes to your daughter, shes someone who you can really see being a bit more reserved, probably a bit more patient than most and really has no problems with waiting her turn. She is not someone who is going to be too demanding nor is she a drama queen. Seems to be able to accept people for who they are just go with the flow. Shes someone who is a bit more understanding with peoples problems and seems to be the one that is a bit more of a listener and being supportive to her friends than sharing anything really deep about her. She does not seem to be the one that gets stressed easily. She is usually pretty open about what shes thinking and people seem to be able to trust that about her. Knowing that shes going to keep in confidence anything that they have to say and that she will be their friend through thick and thin,
She tends to have two best friends, there is one male guy and one female. They all seem to have a good time together and seem to just be able to relate. Often hanging out in large groups. She loves to wear the white color, is known for wearing "Fancy" type shoes that she finds stylish and seems to be the one that is able to kinda make things her own. I am seeing her using some fabric paint and making her shoes fancy, using regular canvas shoes, and decorating them with the paint and jewels. Shes not afraid to be daring and different, and just be herself.
When ti comes to career paths, they show her working as a dentist.

When it comes to marriage I am seeing her closer to 24. They will have two boys of their own.

I'm a buyer for a chain store and wanted to know if you see anything about my career in the future.
I actually think you should stick with your current company for the next few years. I really feel that although they dont always show it, they really do "have your back" and will be able to provide you with the opportunity for growth. So stick there, for the next few years (they show 4) and things will continue to work well. I then see you contemplating a move. I am thinking it might be a change of scene or just a bit more responsibility that is going to catch your eye.
Also, my husband has been unemployed for about a year now and has been unsure about the path he wants to take. Do you see anything about his future career?
I think that part of him being unsure is because there are a few things that really interest him that he is not sure if he can do it as full time. I would actually suggest him to try something as a hobby/home based business as well. I am thinking if you can, should look into going back to school a bit, and upgrading his current education/career choice. I get the impression hes going back to what he knows best and should hear more about his career direction in AUGUST. This can either be where he hears of something hes going after, or perhaps when he gets his interview?
Tell him its time to open his eyes. I get the impression hes not really "networking" and trying a few other things. Almost like hes putting in 80% effort, and that can be because he does not have his sights set on which direction he wants to take.
What type of financial position do you see us in?

Right now, things are not going to be much better.. I do see you guys doing "okay" and have something to fall back on... I think that NOVEMBER is going to be a better month for you (could relate to something that happens at your work, again either when your given news its happening or when it actually happens). I do have a feeling that next year is going to be better for you guys.
Overall, though you both really do well financially and does not seem to be a concern for either one of you during your lives. This translates to me, that this will be an area that you are both lucky in, and not have to worry about (in the overall picture)
Can you see anything about my relationship with my husband and our future?

The only thing they show is that sometimes your husband can be a bit selfish without knowing it (what man isn't). Almost like he does not take what you say/think/feel seriously or realize how its affecting you. I get the impression that you put more of an effort in the marriage than your husband, trying to do things that are nice to show him how you feel and not getting the kinda reaction you are looking for. This actually makes me want to know if its possible that your husband is suffering slightly from depression? This would explain this interpretation of the marriage to me.
Overall though, they do show you guys as very connected on the overall picture and will have a successful marriage. Your the type that will try and try and try and do what you can do to try and make things work, and when you have gotten to your breaking point is when your husband realizes that your angry about it and turns into really sweet and helpful and wanting to make it up to you.

I've included a picture of my husband and I with my Papa (my dad's dad) who passed away June 2008 to cancer. The old Polaroid picture is of me as a little girl with my Poppy (my mom's dad) who passed away January of 1998 also to cancer. I've also included a picture of me at my first communion with both my Poppy & Papa. While I did get to see them both before they passed I just wanted to know if you can get a connection with either of them and I just wanted them to know that I think about them all the time and love and miss them very much.

I actually have a feeling that since you mentioned both of your papa and poppy tat they have come together. I do get the sense of the word "pancreas" so not sure if either died of that type of cancer or had problems. They show yellow, so that does reflect cancer. I do get the sense of a good sense of humor and a bit of a love for magic or anything that is going to grab the childs attention and being entertaining.
I really get the impression that your mom's father is coming through stronger though. I think he had more of a presence in your life. (he would also be able to be stronger, because he had passed away such a long time ago)
Do you have any questions for either of them?
