Thats great ladies.....i might have to do one of those tests as well....:)
OMG i did one of those tests and it says + 3 so im over 5 weeks pregnant....so whats the go there then??? i swear i had my period around the 24th of Jan?? did i ovulate early or have high levels?????? i suppose i am nearly 5 weeks on my counter...
early implantation, super sticky baby :)
Try not to stress about it me4ever. Those are just estimation and don't take into account the drastic difference in people's HCG levels. Its even possible to take one the next day and for it to be different.
After saying not to stress, that's exactly what I'm doing.. scan is in just over 2hrs to see if there is still a hb. Scares me even more comparing this scan to DS2 scan measuring same gestation (diff of 1 day) and seeing so much fluid with him yet just a tiny pocket with a squished baby this time. Probably mentioned all that before but it is scaring the sh outta me still and now its so close to finding out I just feel like puking out of nervousness instead of just ms.
Good luck Dampyre. Thinking of you hun.
Damprye - how'd you go? Good news I hope!
MLR - can't believe you're 30 weeks already! Home stretch! How exciting!
Melster - maybe HCG very high? Good sign! Like Damprye was saying everybody's hcg level is different and even each test is different...
Cheshire - yay for a 3+ week for you as well!
Just had results from blood test and I couldn't believe the nr's! HCG is 3345 and progesterone has gone up to 77 in one week... Next blood test next week and then the clinic will book a viability scan for the week after - I just can't wait! The HCG is going up so much faster than with my mm/c so a good sign I suppose.
Thanks for all the welcomes
Me4ever :) you must be so chuffed go sticky baby
Melster I have no cure for snappy hormones but nibbling and lots of water seam to be helping my fog
Damprye hope all went well
Wow those sound like some fancy POAS girls never seen them
Just wondering can pessaries give you an upset tummy? Mine has been off for thee days now here I was expecting constipation not the opposite thank god it's more early morning and night? Odd
Have to share I was reading DS a book and he flopped on my chest I screamed he laughed historically. Kids are funny.
Greenslw - yes I am very chuffed! Fingers crossed for very sticky babies for all of us! I used to get constipation when on crinone gel, but not so with the pessaries.
How many pessaries are you having and what other pills and patches are you on? I'm on 1 pessary a day and 3 tablets metformin a day. Could it be something you have eaten?
Growth and HB :D There is a clot as big as the gestational sac which caused the bleeding and will likely do so again. I go back again on the 18th.
Fantastic news Damp.
Hope the clot doesn't cause to much trouble
Fantastic news ladies... Hope everyone has sticky babies
Glad all went well damp :) with you
Me4 I'm on 3x prognova pills 1 ever 2 days estradot patch and 2 per day pessaries not sure about food cos it doesn't normally hang around for days maybe give milk a miss tomorrow and see.
Almost fainted at work yesterday and today fingers crossed I'd have way too much explaining to do also is anyone else hot? Bit soon maybe I do have a bug..
Thanks everyone.
Greenslw- hot here too
It's very quiet in here or am I just a serial poster bahahhhhhh lol......how's everyone doing? How r u now Damprye ?
Well dd woke me twice last night wetting the bed. I wasn't impressed and I actually had a few pains. No bleeding. And not to the extent when I think I was miscarriaging ..... So hopefully it's ok. Kinda have that snuggle nose...tired. Hormonal. But I don't think I'm feeling pregnant pregnant.....I'm a bit crazy paranoid at the moment. Wish I just settle. Gotta go out with the girls tonight. Going to be hard to find something to wear and trick them with my drinking
Grr tablet wiped my post
Melster DS was up last night. But he does most nights again. Going though another sooky faze. And tantrums! 3 is much worse than 2! DTD with DF last night and had cramps right away they've settled but its annoying that mc fear is taking over my life a little. My mc was at 8 weeks so I'm thinking ill be nervous till then. Also not sure when to share. Heart beat check on 19th if all goes well with bt this Tuesday. Fingers crossed for big HCG and progesterone. Still doesn't feel real.
Hope lack of posts means everyone is doing great :)
Greenslw- yes, you get. All these warnings of the terrible 2s but noone prepares you for 3! They go get betterthough. For ds1 it was around 3.5yrs. I was also pregnant then so hang in there.
Melster- I'm a serial poster, even when I try not to be lol. I check my settings a couple times a day to see if any new replies :redface:
I'm doing ok. I've come to peace (at least for now) that I could lose this baby at any time or have a prem bub or have another little fighter that hangs on till term. I have no real control and for once, I am ok with that and will just take each day as it comes and enjoy this pregnancy for as long as it lasts. On the 18th I should be getting my next scan if I'm still pg :) I'm not even stressing right now that I will be doing this all without my now ex. Why stress over it all?
Yeah I thought 3 was worse than two... And I got one coming up
To five and boy is she putting the attitude on. I was up Last night coz she wet the bed... I lost mine at 9 so I'll maybe ease up at 12.. But the first scan will help which is in 7 days
Oh no did you break up. Hope ur ok. It's a good attidude to have. Hugs.

Just to clarify DTD doing the deed lol or baby dance sorry for too many acronyms damprye send me some zen even your post seams calm.
Melster I still put a nappy on DS I'm chicken for wet beds.
Was at my mums today so hard not to share
Greenslw - you do indeed get the works! I hope your progesterone is going to go up smoothly now, fingers crossed! Mine went up from 29 to 77 in a week! The FS was really happy.
Damprye - sounds like you made a good decision! Leave him behind and only look forward! I've been in a similar situation a long time ago, without children though, and have long moved on! Life ahead will be so much better! hugs for you!
Melster - re: pains - were they lower tummy pains? Could be stretching of the uterus??
All's good here as well. Had a late day at work yesterday and had to work again this morning. It's hard not to do any heavy lifting, but I told one of my colleagues at work what's going on (she's also one of my best friends), so she keeps jumping in and telling me off if I even point towards something that needs lifting :) Very nice. Don't have many symptoms yet, just feeling exhausted, am going for a little nap in a minute! As a first time mummy to be it's nice not having to worry about older children :) I don't know how you girls cope with having to care for the older kids and also feeling rotten at the same time. Also made the first appointment with the obstetrician in about 2 weeks time, I'll be 8 weeks 2 days then, depending on the dating scan, supposedly to be done in a week and a half. First another blood test coming Wednesday. Am curious what's going on with the HCG!
Me4 it was much much easier last time :) but less pressure also I've got a miracle so know my body is able to do it. Glad you've got a good workmate.
Greenslaw... I use these mattress protector things that you can buy we're nappies and pull ups are. They go underneath thr sheet and you get about 10 in a pack and they sit on top of the mattress and it absorbs quiet a bit
Me4ever..yeah they were lower pains... But I don't think like my mc... So hopefully it's all ok
Hopefully it's all good with ur blood test
I had a bit of morning sickness this morning... Yuck... Just before I ate I felt a bit seedy..

Melster bet morning sickness was good too. I've had it for two weeks now yuck at the time but keeps me thinking positive.
Thanks for the tip re bed wetting. Sometimes I think DS is just lazy with the nappies on.
How do I get my edd? I don't have af so bit confused?
greenslw - for EDD - I googled an "EDD with IVF" and followed their instruction, you can then choose what day embie it was and what the day of transfer was. This is more accurate than using a general one that goes off your first day of your last AF.
Melster - Have you been feeling alright today? No more back aches I hope?
AFM Am surprised at how positive I am this time round... Have already started crafting something for the baby room. Something I didn't do during my last pregnancy that failed. Went out for a nice picnic with DH tonight, had grilled fish and chips, yummy. (last time I had fried fish and had bad heartburn afterwards, fingers crossed it stays away this time!) Am exhausted during the day and definitely need a nap during the day. I prefer my morning naps to the afternoon ones as I feel crap after the afternoon ones and it takes me ages to wake up. No real nausea here yet, as long as I keep eating regularly and healthily. Woke up last night though and had to eat some crackers as I was starving!!
How are you girls keeping?
Argh what's the deal with the double posts??!
We have told almost everyone & we did cop a fair bit of nastiness seeing as this is #4 but i'm over it now. It's not their life & they can all just butt out.
Feeling pretty sick here, not bad bad but bad enough. I just hit 6wks so it will be interesting if it gets worse. I have everything crossed it doesn't.
Greenslaw.... I felt sick yesterday, we went to the shops and to the toilets and they were gross and nearly made me vomitt and I felt a bit seedy all day... That was the most I have felt sick so far.... No more pains just niggle.. I only got dd out of night nappies at 31-2 ... She was quiet early at day nappies around 2 ish... She is still wetting the bed once or a couple nights a week !!'
Me4ever...... Yeah not to bad this morning, not to many pains... Thats great ur positive!!!! Wish I could follow...
Cheshire , I feel for you!!!! Ppl always have there comments. I have step kids and ppl always butt there nose into his business and always make comments how many kids he has. And it's quiet rude really..... It's no one else's buisness... It's only urs and you're the one that lives with them and looks after them!!!!!! I get quiet angry about it actually ... Unless ur abusing you're children or neglecting them ppl Should butt out... Hormone rant over lol
4 days to my scan..... I'm up and down.... I'm actually really really worried about telling my wk!! I'm so nervous... I have only been back 9 months but also my friend there is 20 weeks and they wantede to do her job.... I keep dreaming about it... And I'm a bit worried about what the skids will think...also hubby really wants a boy and i keep thinking about that... I don't know what to do with boys... I'm so used to girls !!!!! I like boys but I'm not a real boy person... But would love to have a son now... Then hubby would relax and I can get my tubes tiied...I almost want to cancel the scan.....

What with the double post. How do I delete ?
Grr going to pm admin
Melster hit edit then delete the txt are you using a tablet or PC maybe it's a site issue. Good luck for scan. I'm in the same boat with wk but you can't put wwk b4 family lol that's my mantra hope it sinks in for me too. Boys are great my DS is so cuddly.
Me4 picnic sounds great and craft sounds like a good way to keep you busy which is great.
Cheshire ppl are a pain got to do what's right for you and maybe have a friend clean out. I've done that a few times no point having negative ppl around ttc is hard enough
ATM sick DS another bad night and no play group :( maybe a trip to the shops but its hot again here. Breakfast is proving hard for me ATM super hungry but don't feel like anything. Threw up lamb roast yesterday too :( bring on 2 nd trimester
I use my phone half the time, but i'll give it a try. That is a good mantra..i guess i just have to accept what ever happens because i cant change it now :)
I think im starting to get morning sickness!!!!!!!!! its good but damn.......lol
I'm feeling alot more confident in this pregnancy now, i have shocking m/s again, i can't keep anything down but icy cold water & sometimes some lemon cordial.
I now remember why i swore i would never get pregnant again after DD3 & my m/s didn't even peak till 10wks with her, i'm dreading these next few weeks but i want them to hurry up so the m/s can go away.
Cheshire that sounds like awful ms did it last long last time?
How you going today melster and me4?
Bt went well for me HCG 3500 and progesterone 78! Happy could have had my scan next week but decided to wait till 7 weeks+ just to make sure it would be awful to not see any. Heart beat due to early scan still would like to see ASAP but good to be patient
Hi everyone,
Im new to BellyBelly and joining in on forums.
I had an ectopic in Dec 12 which ruptured resulting in tubal loss. My husband and I got the all clear and BAM! I'm pregnant again first attempt. I had U/S this morning. I knew much wouldn't be seen as only approx 5wks but disheartened as what was seen was either a sack earlier than 5wks (due to late ovulation) or a failed to progress. My GP didn't do HCG levels so I am now in limbo playing the waiting game. The sonographer was pretty certain nothing was in my remaining tube but still wasn't sure enough. Awaiting call from GP with results and next plan of action.
I think I am experiencing more pregnancy symptoms this time ( bit hazy on what it was like with my daughter as she's nearly 3) as last pregnancy in Dec I felt something was off from the beginning. I guess now we just play the waiting game :dunno:
Cheshire that's no good. If you get real sick get some maxalon tablets ...
Greenslw that's great... Yeah I was a bit hesitant on having this six weej scan ... Hopefully everything will be fine. Sounds positive
Welcome vintage vixon... I have been looking up about scans and from what I read I don't think you see much before 5 weeks 4 days......so I hope and pray you're dates are just a bit out. You'll have to have repeat ultra sound in a week maybe?
Me.. I have fuzzy brain... I past my test tonight tho so that's fantastic..... I'm tired and exhausted ...I have had nausea but no throwing up yet....
greenslw - that's great numbers! Your numbers are so similar to mine :)
VintageV- It might indeed have been too early to see anything, normally after six weeks is the best as you should then see a heart beat.
Cheshire - Yay for feeling more positive!
Melster - well done on passing your test. Yay for very positive symptoms! (and yay for no vomit yet, yuck ;))
I'm having next blood test tomorrow and getting more nervous again... Yesterday I ate some well cooked, but apparently off chicken, got a bit worried after that :$ Not doing that again. Still not many symptoms, besides just being so incredibly tired, and having to eat very regularly. If I don't have a snack in between breakfast, lunch and dinner, or eat too late I feel really crap and weak. Now off to bed, will know more tomorrow if things are progressing and then hopefully a scan next week. Fingers crossed!
me 4 ever, how did you're test go? let you're drs know about the chicken...
Hows everyone else
Im driving myself insane!!!!!!!! seriously......i have my scan in two days on friday and im scaring the #### outa myself...i cant stop thinking about it. i know deep down that there is NOTHING i can do if i have another mc...theres nothing i can do about the outcome and these scans..i know that if i see the baby and its ok that i will feel relief for a little bit..then i will be stressing till the 9 week scan..like i did with my daughter..i need to find a way to deal with and cope with it i think...and i need to stop being a hormonal nightmare .......i doing my own head in let alone anyone elses :wall:
Im feeling extremely foggy and tired..my eyes feel glazed over...my boobs still feel a bit full..stomach still bloated..slight nausea...it comes and goes..been burping a bit..feeling hungry later in the day and not so hungry for brekki....back and stomach ache here and there...so hopefully positive signs..
For a baby i didnt expect im sure feeling very attached...
Mel it's why i decided against an early scan.
It does my head in with stress, have everything crossed for Fri x
14 sleeps till my scan :D
