Thanks duchess - there's no sign of blood this morning so that's a relief. My focus is on staying positive & not focusing on what could or could not go wrong. I just keep telling myself "I am pregnant. I AM PREGNANT" lol
I hope everyone has a good day, I'm looking forward to getting to know you all
Dutchess- Lol are people really complaining of a pest problem in a rural area? If I had the money, I would totally go rural and hope to once bub is born, studies are complete and I can get a community service job out there but that will likely take a couple years as noone would want someone rural will little experience. I almost brought a house out in Kondinin (?sp) a few years ago. They were willing to give it up for 100K (needed some extreme reno to be a "nice" house but I still liked it). Lots of rooms though. Good financially that I didn't (cos I lost work and such pg with ds2) but I still wish I had.
ticktoc- fx
melster- go team pink
Cheshire- hope you start feeling better soon (hugs)
me4- I think girl
AFM- My goodness does this baby move! I'm loving it even though she has caused quite a bit of pain by doing so and left me with a tender tum but yays on no bh today. After getting appointments sorted today, I went and had lunch at dome with DS2 (well was kind of an appt as well as my friend with us is part of a program I am a part of and was catching up as part of the program also) and then we went home for a nap gonna tidy downstairs again tonight (never ends does it?) and will be getting my bathroom all pretty
Hi all I'm still feeling miserable with cold and have had my first day of full on morning sickness so rather unpleasant in all. However in good news this weeks hcg test great -16 916 at 6wks 2 days. Still early days but good start at least.
Greenslw hope u enjoy weekend away. Sounds like you need it!
Ticktok welcome! Hope your dp was excited when you shared the news. fingers crossed all continues to go well.
I have been getting Braxton hicks.... My stomach just goes rock hard and tight. She said I was having one with the. Baby is moving more...... Went our for dinner tonight. Kinda glad I'm tucked into bed and half of me wants to be our drinking. Pretty tired tho
I'm good thanks Mel, had a moment of panic tonight while filling the car - out of no where I suddenly thought omg what happens if I'm not actually pregnant anymore? Wth?? I've poas stick every day since my bfp so I'm pretty sure I am but I guess my sub conscious is not convinced.
I just went to the hospital ... This back pain was terrible, I wanted to check for a kidney infection. She told me to come in after i called maternity and checked for contractions. She said i shouldnt be getting braxtons this early ( i
Thought you could) said that being sick last week could have caused a irritable uterus and maybe my backs out ..
Hope you're ok melster? When will you know what's going on?
I'm seeing the GP on Tuesday, I'll be 5+1 & am hoping my hcg levels are healthy. I wonder if it would be worth asking for an u/s so early? I'd really like reassurance bubs where it is meant to be. I'm trying to not think of what could go wrong or else I start crying (like I did this morning while putting washing on, funny hormones!)
5wks1 day may be messing with your head
At 5wks6 days I saw sac and fetal pole and an amazing heartbeat!
Maybe book one for 6 weeks?
Melster any update?
Me- hate the affect of elevit combined with iron tablets!?! I was in so much pain and scared myself with cramps but was just severely constipated so I'll ask GP on Friday to get me something to move things along
My ob appointment was awesome, couldn't get Doppler heartbeat so did quick scan everything is working and were it should be
Melsta how are you going? Have you been able to find out what's causing the pain?
Ticktok I know these early days are stressful but dont think you'll be able to see much on a scan yet. Earliest probably about 6wks.
Duchess glad ob apt went well and bub doing all the right things.
I've still got a cold but not feeling quite so miserable. And at least onset of morning sickness a good sign in many ways! DS turns 6 tomorrow so focussed organising celebrations for him which is a good distraction. Unfortunately I've given him my cold tho so hope he doesn't feel too sick on his bday.
Duchess you have my sympathy regarding the elevit! when I first started taking it in Dec it clogged me up but then my body got used to it but since falling pregnant - omg! It's terrible! No matter how much water I drink or vegies I eat. Have started eating a handful of dried prunes at night to ease things along for the morning and glad to say it's working well.
Desailly how far along are you? (sorry, I probably should go back and check) I hope you're little boy is feeling ok tomorrow.
Hope you're ok Melstar.
I woke up this morning convinced I had lost this pregnancy and when I went to the loo and saw very pale pink tinged cm that made me cry so I hopped back in bed and started over analyzing all my symptoms or lack of but once I'd spoken to DP and told him my fears and had more of a cry I realised that the cm is probably from DTD yesterday morning and as I am only 5 weeks today it's probably a bit early for the onset of strong ms and other symptoms. DP kindly gave "the girls" a feel and reassured me they still feel like they're growing and becoming fuller
I promise, I'm not normally this neurotic, I blame the hormones I hope the GP I see tomorrow is a "human" and doesn't treat me like I'm nuts (I have had to find a new GP after moving to the area last year). It would be great if she recognises that I may need a bit more reassurance for a while.
Ticktok I'm 7 wks today. I think it's natural to over analyse all your symptoms after some losses. I know I am! I'm getting blood test weekly to check hcg levels which whilst not conclusive gives some peace of mind. Maybe ask your gp tomorrow if they'll arrange that for u. I'm hanging out for ob apt on 19 June as he'll do scan and I so want to see a heart beat this time!
It's completely normal to analyse every symptom.
I really not really having any symptoms till about 8wks & I was convinced the pregnancy was over.
Now I worry when Boo doesn't move or seems very quiet.
Even tho I know he still has heaps of room to move about so I won't always feel him but you know pregnancy sends us all a little crazy
Until I'm told otherwise I'm telling myself my placenta is stopping me from feeling anything!!
I over analysed everything, this bub was one of many many many tries at fertility treatment... I ended up telling myself that all symptoms can go either way and not to worry until I have a doctor tell me to, it kinda worked...
In the middle of a huge house rearrangement making sure baby will fit before we resign lease... The house is crazy
Mel hope you are on the mend back pain can be so awful
Tictoc I hope tomorrow's GP visit goes well, I bled for three weeks from 10-13 weeks heavy and squirt is still with me hope you're ok
Duches I love shifting things around hope its enjoyable
Desailly hope your house is on the mend winter sux
Sorry if I've missed anyone
Well interesting weekend the days were great full of outdoor adventure, night ahh DS was a handful ended up in our bed and DF ended up in his bed. Oh well back home. Also have come to a decision I'm telling work this week. Feeling so nervous but I have to trust that my integrity will be valued and when I go for the job trust the integrity of my boss will mean she chooses based on merit. I think it's the right choice. Guess ill know if I get the job.
