Thanks Cassius and Dory. Well I had the U/S and it had to be internal as we couldn't see much with the external one. I am 6 weeks today and we saw the heartbeat as well at 105bpm which the lady there said was good at this stage.
I am so over the moon at the moment. Now I guess I am just waiting for the dreaded 8weeks to get over to feel safe. We have decided not to tell anyone till the first trimester ends.
Thank You God!! For the time being, we are trying to be "cautiously" happy.
I know its hard, but instead of cautiously happy, just go all out and be happy. You have a bub! Relish this preg, in this moment. It is a blessing, as you know. If you can try not to let fear hobble you. I know its hard, I seem just to be having a positive day, where I can feel the happiness and not the fear, and it's wonderful.
I have passed one vodoo date and have a few still to come, but whilst I know I will be anxious, I know I will also be anxious until I am holding a bubs who has made it. I don't want to look back and think that if that happens, this pg was just misery for me, waiting for something unhappy to happen?
Right now I am truly blessed and I want to give bubs as much love as I can. It might just be me and my eccentric coping style, but it's mostly working for me. If it could work for you, it would be another blessing.
Thanks Dory. I don't think you are eccentric in your beliefs, instead I would love to have your thinking too. I can see that you have gone through so much and it's commendable that you have such positive attitude. I wish with all my heart that this time your dreams come true in the best possible way.
I have started having MS and have literally been bedridden for last couple of days due to extreme tiredness....but it all feels good.
Thanks Cassius.... it was a very wonderful feeling to see a strong HB.
Dory - Congrats on completing the 1st milestone. Good to hear that you are well again after the gastro.
Summer - Thanks for your advice. I know that I should be like that, but it's getting a bit difficult nowadays as last time these days were the ones when I started spotting. I am trying really hard to stay positive after every ache and pain though.
Just wanted to ask something.....is it normal to have pain in leg during PG? And does MS change every day....I had just been throwing up all my food till the last 2 days but today it's just dry retching...is this normal[sorry for TMI]?
GSB - I am sooooo happy for you. I am sorry tht you are tired, but that's a good sign and evern better that you are taking it easy. But i reckon you don't have much a of a choice? That early pg tiredness is pretty compelling and overwhelming.
Summer24 - good luck with your pg. Good to hear that things are going well after a bumpy start. I agree stress doesn't help.
AFM - well a sort of milestone reached for me today. 12 weeks, only 28 to go! Not really a significant date for me in my journey, but statistically important. It's good to have reached it anyway. I have had a mild bout of gastro this week and am feeling better again. Phew! Not nice, even though I wasn't that sick. I would way prefer the type of M/S I get than gastro. At least I still have an appetite with M/S!
Cheris all the milestones you reach! I cherised every day and every week, especially reaching 12 weeks, then 20 weeks etc.
Just remember - positive thinking is best in life - negative thinking only manifests horrible things - and you dont want horrible things to happen.
Just keep thinking to yourself and putting it out there "that i AM going to give birth to a happy healthy baby"!
Goodluck everyone - cant wait to hear and see pictures of your beautiful little babies.
GSB - how are you doing? Are you still bedridden? Hope the M/S has improved or that at least you are working out ways to manage it. It's tough to say the least.
i'd hazard that the pains you are feeling are all the bumping and stretching going on. there is a big growth development at that 9 week mark and there is sooo much moving around down there. sometimes i get sharp stabbing pains in the lower ab and it can radiated down either through the vagina or down the inner thigh ITMS.
hope you are travelling along ok, and that the m/s is being gentle on you!
Hi,
just wanted to say congrats hope all is still well
Dory, I have just stumbled on this thread - I am soooooo pleased that you are with bubs, I do hope that all is well I will pray for you, sending you so much love you have been such a support
