Pregnancy after Long Term TTC - September 2008

[Possums]

Nic- welcome here! yay, we've both made it over here in September...levels sound good

afm- having my levels checked again on wednesday, just to keep tracking things for now...only 2 weeks now until our first scan...yay!

[Nicole S]

Thanks ladies, I still can't believe it...I must still be in shock.
Quick question, I had another light pink spot on the toot paper on Sunday and this morning did any of you get this??

Possum, yeah for your scan in a couple of weeks.
I think mine is in 14 sleeps time...not that I'm counting or anything

Congratulations Nic So wonderful to see you here.

In regards to the light spotting, I didn't have any, but I know a lot of women who did and continued with perfect pregnancies. I think that if it is light/occasional then there isn't too much to worry about. If it is heavy and red then you need to get to the doctor/hospital. Your levels sound great! If you are worried, ring your doctor/nurse and check with them. It is better not to sit and stress about it.

Wishing you a H&H pregnancy.

Congratulations, Nic! The shock wears off about the same time the nausea sets in... May the rest of your pregnancy be happy and trouble free, and the spotting can nick off! Afraid I don't have any experience with spotting like that, though.

Hi Everyone
I will attempt to do personals Im just so happy that this thread is soooo busy
BW: Hope you REALLY enjoy school hols and find some way to relax and pamper yourself!!!
Nicole: Big Welcome. Yes i had some spotting around 12 weeks and it is quite normal to get a little when your period would have been due, the dr told me as long as its not heavy and not accompanied by alot of pain. In any case its always worth getting checked out to put your mind at ease!
Possums: hope the next 2 weeks fly by, V exciting!
Tl: so glad all went well with your scan, sounds like you have a very well behaved little
bub!
Poppihome: hope your doing ok, thinking of you
Queen: so so happy everything was good with your mum, that is just so scary and a stress you and your mum definately dont need with your little bub on the way.
Shannon: i really cant believe you are still working, you must be totally exhausted with 2 big bubs kickin around in there, hopefully these last few days they'll let you slack off abit i think you deserve it!
BG: Just so great to see you in here, so sorry your feelin so ill though, but like you said its so reassuring, but hopefully the edge will be taken off by the seabands they are really good, but leave you with just enough nausea to know everything is good. Hope the next few weeks fly by till you can get to see that little
oh how excting we have new smiles!!!
Devon: hope your enjoying the long weekend and the awsome weather, bring it on i say.
AFM: Feelin good espicially with this great weather, roll on summer, but bubs is sooooooo busy i actuall feel very very sore today, did some gardening yesterday and dont know if that brought it on, but my lower abdomen is just aching like i have been kicked (which isnt surprising) DS was never this active, she just doesnt seem to stop! Well it all feels a little boring at the mo with no appointments or scans or tests i hardly know what to do with myself and DS has gone to spend the week with his grandparents, so im lost, will be ok once im back to work wednesday.
Well really hope i didnt miss anyone. Have a lovely day (probably week by the time i get back on here) Good luck and tonnes of sticky vibes to you all

afternoon all!

Nic - welcome - looks like we'll only be a couple of days apart!

not alot of personals today - still trying to get my head around who is where!

just wanted to pop in and post - got a referral from my clinic for u/s today, so called up, and they've slotted me in on Friday - i asked if that was late enough (given i'll only be six weeks or just over) and they said it will be fine - so viability scan on friday! woot - that's so soon! i got the shakes when i hung up - i think scan is the first of the big milestones to get past! DH was so sweet - rang his boss and said "i've gotta be home on Friday for a few hours" then gave me a big hug. he's very excited! took me shopping yesterday (can i say, the gremlin HATES shopping as much as mummy - was so tired and blurgh last night!) - bought some little jump suits and a teddy bear for the baby. he's embracing this so much - it's very cute! he's such a big scary looking fella (BW would probably attest to that) - but he's such a big softie!
