I had my dating scan this morning. Diva-n-Dan, I felt exactly like you, I was nervous and felt sick to my stomach. This time almost to the day last year we had our first scan and found out we had lost the baby, so I was scared and paranoid. Good news this time though, the Sonographer found the baby straight away and the heartbeat was nice and strong. So I am feeling a bit better now. I am not as far along as we thought, going by my LMP i should be 9 weeks 3 days, but I am actually 7 weeks 1 day. Now I just have to try to relax and hope this one is a keeper.
Much love and best wishes to everyone, hope you are all doing well.
I love Diva-n-Dan's story too! It just makes me laugh/cry, especially the way you went on to 'torture' your poor GP...
Glad to hear things are progressing well for you Mako - guess it won't be too long before we're pestering you for labour news...
speaking of which... no, i won't ask. you'll tell us. and you know who you are.
ALR - how're you doing? Hanging in there?
I have nothing of any particular interest to say. My mum had to lie to relatives again - she claims she was more convincing this time. Gearing up for a very busy time at work over the next 3-4 weeks, and we're moving at the same time. Had forgotten about the bloody forum in September. Will have to pressure DH to be more helpful.
Clare - a huge Welcome to you & what fabulous news of being pg with twins.
ALR - hoping you are doing ok, hang in there.
Destiny - Congratulations on your pg!
Diva - sometimes I find that finally being pg is still hard to believe & I am 26 wks, so it does take a long time & I guess until you have that bub in your arms it never really goes away so you just need to try & be as positive as you can.
Mako - glad your appoint. went well, my dr said epidural to me as well which I do need to do a bit of research on as well.
He said if you REALLY want pain relief that is the way to go.
Monnie - still no ziggy?
I know this is probably too much info but does anyone have a remedy for constipation (like is there anything else I could possible get!!!).
I have tried licorice, coffee but couldn't force any prune juice down that was revolting, what else can I try?
Jo - 27 (treated endo)
Dh - 34
Second chlomid / IUI March 2007 -
DJTTC - One word for you ... metamusil ... I personally take the fibre caps, but the powder's totally safe for PG too ... couldn't live without it at the moment ....
just though i would let you all know that my BT cam back really well, OB told DH that he knew how to pick a good breeder. So now I am a baby making perfect machine..... I was happy just to know I am health and most of all the baby is too.
Hope it continues though.....
Well Monnie, nice to see you still in here hopefully for not much longer,
DJTTC, i used aloe Vera juice for a while when I was really backed up. I think its safe in pregnancy.
Hi Everyone,
Was hoping I could join you and share stories.I just found out that I am Pregnant! I seriously can hardly believe it...am already totally stressed...am I still feeling nauseous? will my levels go up next BT.....do we ever stop stressing,it's so hard not to eh?
My HCG was 156....have no idea if that's good or not and the nurse told me I am now considered 4 weeks.
Wishing you all happy and very healthy pregnancies.
I'm sure your scan will be really great Kotare, and you can finally spill the beans!
Glad to hear you bought some stuff Clare - there'll be no stopping you now.
And thanks for the reassurances on bloating - the doc told me "Basically, you won't be able to fit into your skinny jeans for at least a year or so." Not that I wear skinny jeans, but anyway, at least the pain's gone... Just slightly resentful about having to wear baggy tracky dacks in the first trimester - but at least it's winter, hey.
All the best with finding people to take over from you Mako and DJTTC. It's always a problem, cause, you know what they say, if you want something done properly...
Any more movements Lt Panda?
Hey Sazz, I know what you mean. I just scroll down the latest messages while i'm writing as a reminder...
Claire Congrats and welcome. I wish you all the best for the next 8 months.
Kotare All the best for your scan on Wednesday and I'm sure you can't wait to tell the "world". All the best with the move too.
Marcellas Don't feel bad about wearing trackies hun. I have to say that I pretty much live in them atm lol. Atleast I can wear mine to work too. Its a bit harder when the weather gets warmer though.
Sazz Don't feel bad about "personal" posts. Thats what we are here for hun. Who else would we feel free to talk too during our most difficult times? Its good to get everything off our chest and may I add, its very healthy. I also scroll down the page to see where everyone's up to and then do my personals. It makes it much easier.
I've had a busy day today. I had to work this morning and then I had a seminar to attend for work this afternoon. I have to say it was very boring and I was so uncomfortable. It was quite hot in the room and I just swelled up like a balloon. My boss couldn't believe how fast my fingers swelled and then the cankles happened again and they are still up tonight
I hope you are all having a great weekend and big belly rubs to you all
