Sorry i have been AWOL for soooo long, had to get a new laptop then i couldnt remember my password but anyway i have been trying to follow everything but so much going on!
Possums: I have my everything crossed that everythings going to be ok for you and bubs, your so strong i'm sure your bubba is too.
To All the others ladies (there are so many of you): i hope everything is going along well for you.
AFM: Almost 10 weeks now, been a bit sick the last couple of weeks but not too horrendous no where near as bad as the tiredness anyway! Have my first OB tomorrow which is exciting.
Anyway better get to bed will try to blog better from now on.
I'm the new kid on the block! So nice to be in these threads! Have been dreaming about it for ages!
Still cant believe am PG, guessing it will take some time to sink in. Am still obssesively wiping (sorry if TMI) worried that blood will show up. I guess too many bfn's bring that on.
Feel like have become so knowledgeable in TTC and am here now, PG where i want to be and I dont know where to start and what to do.
I now have to wait 3 weeks for my 7 wk ultrasound - which cant wait for - so lots of killing time in between.
BBs are massive and sore which funnily enough am calling them 'my beacon of hope'. Its like that is my proof for my PG. Like my PG test and BT werent.
Have still been getting cramps in my uterus. Is this common gals.
Other than that OK, just heightened sense of smell.
I was also really surprised that my HCG levels were 1700. They said I probably could have tested 2 days earlier. Is this normal?
I guess I am going to be asking way too many questions and wont be able to help with anyone's at the moment!
Well bellyrubs all round and look forward to sharing the journey with you all!
Mon
That wait for your first US is a killer - but well worth it. Cramps in your uterus are common - in fact I am getting some still at the moment as baby is going through a growth spurt.
Congratulations Mon!! How exciting! I had loads of AF-type cramps early on, perfectly normal but a bit disconcerting. Wishing you a marvellous pregnancy!
Sorry, I'm not up to personals today. Feeling a bit teary and emotional.
to everyone.
ETA - Possums, is your next scan tomorrow? If it is I'm wishing you all the best, and hoping for some great news.
Mon - congratulations and welcome!!! Just so you know, I still check every time I wipe ... and yes, still get odd cramps and things, and I especially did a few weeks back. It is an exciting and nervous time being pregnant, when the journey here hasnt been easy. The ladies here are so helpful and supportive.
Devon-I had a teary emotional day yesterday...was at lunch with a friend and she said something which seemed to hit a raw nerve and I nearly burst into tears!
our scan is tomorrow at 9am. we get another confirmation our little Flicker is growing strong, despite these silly old slow-rising HCG levels of mine! Each week to me feels like another milestone...and another step closer to being into a safer zone
I have had headaches the last few days and felt a bit queasy today and BBs still really sore...I just keep talking to our little one and telling them how much I love them already and to keep growing nice and strong for mummy and daddy
Early on (week 4 -5) I had really bad shooting pain "down there" - almost doubled over. But that passed.
No morning sickness at all until about 2 weeks ago, but only first thing - ok after I get up and have a cup of tea.
My boobs have their good days and their bad. Some time super sensitive and sore and then some days they feel completely normal. So don't stress if they calm down a bit.
I too have super sensitive smell - cannot even be in the same state as someone who had garlic and onion the night before. (ok - over exagerrating, but you know what I mean). Sensitive to both good and bad smells.
I have had a craving for chinese food - I haven't touch the stuff since I was a child. I'm normally a Thai/Indian curry girl - at the moment there is nothing more appealing than a big fat serve of sweet and sour pork, fried rice and san choi bow.
The first scan is both nerve wracking (the weeks leading up to it) and a joy. The first time you see the heart beat you will fall in love. Every time you see it after that you'll fall a little bit harder.
I'm super tired all the time and really need to start finding the energy to exercise otherwise I will be way way way overweight by May next year.
These are just my experiences so far - almost 11weeks - not that far along, but it feels like it has been ages.
Anyway- let us know when you have come up with a nickname for the little one.
Woohoo Congrats again Mon! Those levels are absolutely fantastic and just show that your super emby is doing perfect and growing strong! The cramping is also normal i think i had it up until about 8 weeks, which doesn't help the wiping compulsion when it feels like AF is about to arrive! 3 weeks is a long time to wait for a scan you poor thing! And ask away! i am so happy you are here!
Nixon - I love those cravings! Yumm mine were nowhere near exciting fruit and olives.
Possums - Good luck tomorrow morning can't wait to hear how everything goes!
Devon- :hugs: ahh the joys, hope everythign is okay and they are just pregnancy hormones giving you a hard time, but huge hugs!
Janie - Hope your cramping eases up.
Luckystrike - Your shopping plan sounds perfect! How much longer until you hit 12 weeks?
Huge ladies and i hope everyone is having a good week.
