    good morning everyone

    starangel - I haven't had got my results yet. my doctor won't ever give results over the phone good or bad so i have to wait till my appointment tomorrow...longest 2 day wait ever... i still have really strong symptoms so I think the force is strong with this one.

    Is your bleeding light? Let us know how the results go... everything here is crossed for you

    Thanks for the well wishes, the Dr rang and my HCG is over 2,300! Can't believe that this time last week it was only 70. The bleeding I am experiencing is annoying really. It is light but I am calling it spotting because that makes me feel better. Basically I am wearing a liner and once a day I get some staining but other than that it is just brown sludge or red mucousy blood when I wipe. I did have some clots but that was last week and haven't seen anything like that since then. I keep thinking the bleeding has eased but then I go to the toilet and there it is again. It's persistant that's for sure. My last pregnancy didn't have any bleeding at all until I started to mc (the very very light brown spotting was my first sign) so it is still scary to me but with my numbers increasing, I am feeling more positive.

    Starangel thats awesome news!! 2,300 is brilliant. I have gone home early from work. I was sick all day vomiting i just left and went to the doctor.. but I now have my results, so on the 28th by hcg was 46 then on 30th it was 186 so thats gotta be a good sign...

    I just feel sooo rotten and want to sleep all the time. But sooo excited at the same time that i just feel this is gonna be it this time...

    I can imagine the bleeding is worrying but as you have probably read on here it can be really normal. I have had a bit of slight cramping and that makes me worry but it hasn't gotten any worse.

    great news.... so when are you due then?

    Mrs Hendo - I think you are 4W3D and I got an HCG level of 70 at 4W1D so yours are higher than mine were From my calcs I am due June 1st......I saw you joined the BB thread but I am going to wait until after my scan in a couple of weeks and if they confirm the dates I have I'll come and say hi then

    Sorry to hear you aren't well you poor thing. Rest up and take care of yourself.

    oh thanks starangel.... I am feeling pretty rotten but still so happy because of the reason why.... i just pray that this little embryo grows into a big beautiful bubba.

    I am so glad your tests went so well. I got a massive sleep of 3 hours this afternoon. No idea how I am going to continue at work. soooo tired. How are you going with tiredness? My dr told me to take some B6 vitamins so now every morning I take a pregnancy vitamin, pregnancy folate and now b6 vitamin... jeez...

    I was really apprehensive joining that thread but I figured i am just going to be positive.. There only seems to be a couple in there so far so I prob will spend more time on this thread till then. Everyone here understands the apprehension after going through a miscarriage..

    Mrs Hendo, another thing which will also help with the nausea is the blackmores morning sickness tablets, they contain B6 and ginger and really help. If you take several of these a day (as noted on the bottle) they should help with tiredness and nausea. Stay positive, stay happy, stay pregnant! (great BT results too!)

    Limited brain function at this hour so hope everyone is enjoying themselves and I'll be back tomorrow to report on baby colour! (I'm so jinxing myself by talking about it so much!)

    Morning everyone - I realised that yesterday was my first real day in this thread and I may have slightly hijacked it talking with Mrs Hendo

    AFM with my dating scan - I am stuck in that wanting to have it asap and wanting to wait long enough to see a heartbeat if possible. Can anyone please give me some ideas about when I should be able to see a heartbeat? With my last pregnancy, I had a scan but the sac was small and they couldn't see anything inside - at that stage they said it was just too early.

    Greenslw - have fun in the country, sounds like a great opportunity for some R & R

    Megsmum - what you wrote is so lovely, I can't wait to feel like that about a baby of my own.

    Hi to everyone else, like I said I am really looking forward to getting to know everyone better
