Thanks HPL for all your positive thoughts Oh, they make you wait til Monday for your results, torture! It's nice to have that extra bit of progesterone security, is that pessaries you're on?
Audax - oh, I'm so sorry about your past morning sickness experience. I really hope the sickness is completely worth it this time!
Mia - they're making you wait for you scan a loooooong time!
Minnie- less than a week til scan, focus on getting well
Hi everyone else!
Well, my hcg was around 59,500 today at 5 wks 6 days. It hasn't quite doubled every 48 hours since last Sat but do you think that's ok once it gets quite high? Progesterone is back up to 75 (from 55) and that's on 5 pessaries a day. They want me to come in for a scan tomorrow, I'm soooooooooo nervous. I'll be 6 weeks exactly. Eeeeeeeeeeek!!!!
Your levels sounds very good to for 5wks 6 days... as I said my Ob will be happy with 1200, I know its only 4wks 4days, but still your way in front of my HCG wise I'd be happy with it... Your progesterone sounds good too... yes I am on the pessaries, just 1 a day at 100mg... I find it really kicks starts my symptoms with a lot of nauseous morning so far...
Yes they make me wait but to be honest this time around I havent been too stressed or anxious, something inside just 'knows' this baby (boy fingers crossed) will stick and I will meet him in Novemeber... With my 2 mc something inside me knew they wouldnt survive, and both times it was before anything was visibly wrong, just a voice inside my head would tell me to be cautious and perhaps something was wrong, sadly yes that voice was right, but this time around, my DH and I are just so sure and positive that he will be here and we will have a christmas as a family of 4....
and honestly ladies, I just have this feeling that we will ALL be having christmas with our new little ones... I just have this overwhelming feeling of positiveness.. Enjoy your weekends ladies!! Stress Less and Enjoy More!!
Mich - 75 is awesome! I don't think mine ever got that high with DD's pregnancy!
HPL - so thrilled for your feeling of positivity. I'm feeling it too
Mke - congrats on your scan! Two girls will be wonderful, and your DD will love having a sister.
Saw my Dr today, got a fresh script for Maxolon, I'm leaning on it pretty heavily this time. She remembered how unwilling I was to even take a panadol last time round - how far I've come. We laughed about vomiting, and she told me that the more morning sickness you get, the more likely you are to have a smart kid. Apparently there was some study a few years ago. I blame DH and his three degrees, making genetically smart babies that make me spew!
Audax - LOL re the theory of vomiting makes for a smart baby, mine mustnt be at all brainy then LMAO I've had 0 morning sickness this time round. Ahhh well hahahahaha
HPL - thanks for the positivity , I dont know I have a feeling about my little one too and that he/she will be with us for a long time so
AFM - I didnt get to the docs ontime (thanks to a burst water main on Parra Rd!) for a BT yesterday so still just thinking positive and letting it ride for now.
Any thoughts on using Veet depilatory cream for your upper lip whilst UTD? I havent used it just incase but am starting to get desperate LOL
Audax: I have maxalon here too but some far havent needed it... my DH on the other hand has been suffering from severe MS and cravings and wild mood swings... such a nice break lol - I like your theory on the worse MS the smarter the kids... I like to this DD is quite bright and my MS with her lasted from day dot to 30weeks... ALL DAY EVERY DAY....
Mia: bugger about the BT but i guess this way you can enjoy your weekend without worrying (even just a little) about the results... Glad you have a positive feeling about this bubs too...
I have a question.... What are your thoughts on the Digital HPT?? I have used them before and they have been quite accurate... I have just taken one as I am completely 100% addicted to POAS lol and it came up with 3+weeks... Now according to me - which i have to admit this is the only month in my life that i bothered to track my ovulation - I should only be 2weeks post ovulation - 2 week 3 days at a stretch... but this test was BAM 3+ so I am wondering if I have gotten my dates wrong??? To be honest I would LOVE to be further along than I thought.... Just wanted your thoughts thats all.
Hi all, on my phone do just a quick update
I saw a heartbeat of 120 at my scan this morning!! So happy to see something in the sac this time. Apparently it's measuring 5wks 5 days. I know I'm 6 wks exactly so I'm hoping there's just a lot of margin for error at this early stage!
HPL- i once looked up the hcg levels for those digital tests. I have a vague memory that 3+ weeks is hcg of 2000 and above, but don't quote me!!!
Thanks Maruschke and Mia
Mia- not much in the way of symptoms here. Sore boobs, pimply face and greasy hair mostly! Yuk I definitely don't have morning sickness (so no smart baby here either, ha ha!!). I feel like I occasionally have a 1 second twinge of sick feeling, then it goes and I don't know if I've imagined it! How about you?
Hi all
Maruschke: i was stalking you, good to see your scan went well, congrats on your little girl
Mich: wwhhhoo so happy for you, you must have so relieved to see that little
HPL: sounds like your numbers are increasing well
Audax: i hope the maxalon is helping you
mia: how are you going ? not too long until your scan now
afm: im going ok, i rang the clinic the other day to ask them for another blood test this week, they thought i was ringing because something was wrong, i felt like saying how would i know if it was at this stage !! anyway im going for a blood test tuesday and then the scan thursday, if the number tues is bad im not going to go for the scan, im scared enough as it is and i just can't bare to see bad news.
im pleased to see you all feeling so positive, im hoping some of it rubs off on me !
Ive been nervous all wkend, not for any particular reason i guess not knowing for sure everythn is ok is doin my head in. I went to my gp to see if i cld get a scan today but she said its bter i wait till nxt wk incase its too little to see so she thought its best to wait sigh! She gav me a paper for an u/sound place near home so i went anyways but d rudest receptionist said they were fully booked until wednesday. I willl just wait rill monday just a lil sad i cant see it today i know i hav to b patient
Congratulations to all you mummies. Wishing you all a smooth, trouble free pg.
Just stepping in to say I got a BFP this morning. Very, very early days yet and not getting excited yet.
My first thought was 'here we go again, how long before I lose this one?' But I will try to be positive and just enjoy the ride, no matter how short (but hopefully at least 8 more months).
DG!!!! I am sending you the biggest amount of sticky vibes EVER!! Congratulations on your BFP... Praying my hardest that you get to meet this little one in 8 months time!!!
Oh, they make you wait til Monday for your results, torture! It's nice to have that extra bit of progesterone security, is that pessaries you're on?
I'd be happy with it... Your progesterone sounds good too... yes I am on the pessaries, just 1 a day at 100mg... I find it really kicks starts my symptoms with a lot of nauseous morning so far...
