SammyP: So sorry for you. I went away for the weekend and didn't have the internet and have just logged on today to hear your news. Take care of yourself.
SammyP So sorry this happened to you again. It's not fair.
Poor WTH. Hope you're feeling better and the congestion clears up. I know that can be miserable. Oh, and my mum always made me stick my head over a pot of boiling water (no longer on heat) with a towel over my head. I'm not sure what that did, but it usually made me feel better. And then splashed cold water over the face to make your skin tingle.
sammy i am so sorry for your loss. lost for words. be kind to yourself and surround yourself with loving supportive people. sending you lots of love and hugs.
Emmy83: best of luck for your tests over the next couple of days
Hi to all the other ladies on this thread. Sorry not much time for persies today.
AFM: Well had my first ob appt yesterday, saw the heartbeat. Nearly started crying when it was first detected- silly I know. I was so nervous before my appt, that my ob decided to do the US before taking my BP. BP was still 140/60 when he did take it, he wasn't so concerned about it as the bottom measurement was fine, he said the top measurement is more likely to be elevated due to anxiety. I was certainly anxious. I had loads of cysts on my ovaries, more than when I had a pelvic US the month before we got our BFP. Ob suggested that it could be due to the changes in hormone levels, but we will have to monitor them. Does anyone else have PCOS with their pg? Apart from that he was happy enough not to see me again until 13 weeks, so I guess pretty good news.
Josh'smum - I have pcos but I havent been told I still have cysts whilst pregnant. Maybe I have but I wouldn't know. It wasn't silly to be nearly in tears when seeing the heartbeat. Its a very emotional time!
Emmy - Welcome to the thread, I wish you all the best in this pregnancy! I would get another HCG test as soon as possible just to ease you mind, I was at my docs every 2-3 days for the first 3 weeks!
Thanks ladies. I am feeling anxious due to my past two m/c but I am this will be a happy ending meaning Ill get my baby at the end of it.
I saw the Dr who gave me the referal for repeat bloods. She told me not to have it till 72hours which is Thursday Lunch time. All I can say is thank God I can get the results that day asanother few days on top of Thursday to get the results would not help. Sorry for my anxiety. I hope it eases as soon as I see the numbers rising and if not
HI girls. Lovely to see all the new faces in here. I feel really slack about not posting much but it is SOOO hard to get on the computer these days
SammyP - Just wanted to say how so, so sorry I am for your recent loss. Its just so horrible to have this happen anytime, let alone repeatedly. I hope you are being looked after
Zstar - yipee at great scan and seeing your bouncing bean. I would take the scan date rather than your last period. They are pretty accurate at that early gestation and your ovulation date can be quite variable
Josh'smum - yay for you too at seeing a little HB. SUCH a reassuring sign. Hopefully all continues on smoothly from here on
erybery - wow 32 weeks. Getting closer to the finish line now
Easha - hoping you are ok after the other day
Pash - good to see all going werll for you
greenslw - HUge CONGRATS on your engagement. How sweet of your DP!
WTH - hey buddy. Glad your pg is all going to plan. Its amazing that we will both have these precious babies in our arms fairly soon. Yuk for the sinus issues. I have had two bad bouts this pg and I must say, the thing that helped most was acupuncture. I was there for just routine pg wellbeing stuff but asked her to treat the sinus both times and within a couple of days was feeling much better both times.
emmy - best of luck with BT on thurs. I remember that waiting only to well. Every day for the first few weeks really is agony but you will get through it!
AFM - All is going along ok although typical for me, nothing is ever simple. We have attempted the 4d scan a record breaking 3 times with NO success. Not even one picture of our little princess. Face has been hidden every time by cord,feet,hands etc! Quite disapointed given this was my birthday pressie and supposedly meant to be something "nice" for this highly traumatic pg. Anyway, guess we just have a very stubborn baby. Coming from this scan however, some concern over my amniotic fluid level. The scan is totally NON medical but she did mention it and I hae enough knowledge to have noticed myself. OB is sending me for a proper scan next week to check everything.If bub an ok size then will probably just need monitoring so hoping this is the case. Otherwise she will still have to come out early.
MOvements have been pretty good whichc is what I am supposed to be watching out for so not to worried at this stage
I did purchase a wig finally, thanks ladies! Looks pretty natural, certainly to those who don't know me so feeling a bit better about stepping out now!
oh Sammy waiting in the Hosp must have been awful, glad you had the shot though. No words can say how sorry I am.
