I have my first ultra sound in an hour and a half and they said I needed to drink four 8 oz. Glasses of water 2 hours before my appointment...Within 10 minutes of my first half a glass I had to pee so bad...I haven't hit 4 glasses yet...Lol I honestly feel like I am going to pee my pants. Ah! Well anyways...If you had to do this too before, how did you keep your mind off it?

I'll let you all know how the appointment went.

I haven't had my first ultrasound yet, but....

They told my friend to do the same and she couldn't do it, so when she came in for it, they put a cathiter I think it's called. If you don't know what that is, they stick a small tube up your pee hole and fill your bladder with water, they can see things better when you're bladder is full.

It's not comfortable neither. :? She said it burned like crazy when they removed it.

Lol I drank 2 glasses just before I left the house (live about 3-4 min drive away from the clinic) and by the time I got there I had to pee really bad but she had no problem seeing anything.

I found out I am 11 weeks 1 day (i thought I was about 11 weeks). The baby had a heartbeat of 156 beats per minute (she said between 110 and 180 is good), it was moving lots, and it is about 4 cm give or take she said. My due date will be febuary 21st. I am very excited. I am so excited my little bump is healthy. She jiggled the little paddle a bit (they psuh down gently as it is) to make him move around, and man he didn't like it!! He was moving around all over the place! She said he must not like being bothered! Lol. His arm and leg where up in the air...I call him my acrobat. I don't know if it is a boy or a girl but for some reason everyone in the house has gotten used to calling it a him...Lol. Anyways that is the update.

Oh no! That totally sucks!! Mine started to go away last week. I still get random waves of nausea...But not really bad. I went away on vacation for 2 weeks to visit family and I think it did me good to get away from my boyfriend and stress for a while. I started to feel better instantly. Maybe that's all you need is a little stress free break away from stuff. Hope you feel better soon!

I have a different case of nausea, it's severe.

I've been to the e.R twice just to get rehydrated.

It blows balls. :(
