Good luck mama! Ours went well we saw the baby jumping and everything. Everything came back normal.

Yay for 14 weeks!

120 is way to high to be your heartbeat, and wee ones range quite a bit. Don't get discouraged!  

I read everything! Lol... Chatty girls... ;)

I'm praying for all of your appointments to go well this week! I know how nerve wrecking spotting can be... So praying for you ladies as well!

Also, Daesey, yay for 14 weeks!

And I completely agree about the stripes on maternity clothes... Lol.

And my Doppler took like 3 tries and lots of YouTube to be sure I found the hb. Lol. I was so excited when it came that my pulse ws in the 120s...   and at 14 weeks, my baby is still in my vajayjay even though I can feel my uterus an inch or 2 under my belly button. My ob's Doppler is waaaay more sensitive than mine so that's why they can find it so loud and so fast.   I had to check my own pulse a lot to see if it matched what I was hearing or not... Lol

I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday!

You should take a video and post it here like I did to get opinions on the HB. My heart is always high like in the 90's sometimes 100's to begin with and on top of that I was nervous and excited so I know mine was very high already. When trying to get the baby's hb I kept getting my own. One trick is to touch your neck to see if it yours. And the youtube videos helped a bit. This one in particular because she shows you the different sounds that you can hear. Its a bit long but very informative. Move the probe slowly like in the video. I actually found mines where she found hers, I kept checking up high because I'm 14 weeks but apparently the baby is low lol.

Thank you for posting this! My Doppler shoukd be here Monday or Tuesday and hopefully it'll help me find it!  
The dr found mine really high last week so I guess I'll start there!

Finally past the 12 week mark!  
Has anyone started thinking of names?

I have a little! I wont tell any of my friends/family in real life. Lol. But I'll tell y'all!  
I like Rosalie for a girl and Finley Jude for a boy. We would call him Finn! I think it's a boy, but everyone I know tells me it's a girl...I don't have my gender ultrasound for 6 more weeks! I'm considering havin an elective ultrasound in a couple of weeks!

I like both of those choices! My sons second MN is Finley, but spelled Fionnlagh which is the gaelic version!
I've got about 4 names I like for each gender, but I can't decide on any of them haha!

same thing with me minus the name part. If I have a boy his name will be Jude David. I have NO girl names picked out. Ugh lol

Oh I like that spelling!  
I couldnt decide on a name for my last baby until she was born. Lol. And dh doesn't like any of these names...so we will see why he/she is actually named. Haha

That is cute! I love the name Jude!  
I have a horrible time with girl names!

We had a boy's named picked out pretty much as soon as we found out we were expecting. We just recently decided on a girls name. If it's a girl she'll be named Morgan Kathleen, Kathleen after my DH's late mother. If it's a boy Deklan Michael.
