just poping in again!
nice to see some old faces joining us over here!!!
just having a minor freak out... i am 14 weeks now and most of the time i just dont feel pregnant anymore... i know it is normal i have been thru it before but it is horrible... i jsut want to be tired and grumpy and sick again i just want to know everything is ok dam it lol
i have made an extra appointment with the dr i am going to try and get another scan before my 20 week scan i know it sounds irrational i just need to know tht there is nothing wrong
I wish i was more like you Dory, you are dealing with everything so well and i really admire you.
i remember being told while i was TTC that the road to my BFP would be so easy compared to the road you travel after you get it. i didnt believe the person who told me but guess what... she actually knew what she was talking about lol
oh just so you know i do stalk alot more than i post lol i just feel that i have nothing of value to contribute and i dont want to bring everyone down lol
hope everyone is feeling ok
MillyD - I do think your rise in HCG is a good one. This one will be your sticky bub!
MurrayCod - Your HCG sounds about right to me. I think everything is on track. I understand about the cramping as I have been suffering considerable back cramps (I don't worry about the front ones) and they have been fairly constant. Today I saw my osteo about a sore hip and now that he has done work on it the cramps seem a lot less so I think I have been exaggerating the pain in my mind through stress. I am sure stress is contributing to your perception of the pain. As for not throwing up, I never did. As long as I keep burping the way that I do (every 20 minutes) then I figure everything is alright as bloating and burping (and other wind related problems) are the only definite symptoms I get as this stage.
Hi to everyone else. I am admiring everyone's tickers.
murraycod - google "hcg doubling rates calculator" Enter your dates and levels, and you will discover that they are PERFECT. Exactly, precisely, perfectly where they should be. And, man, after 22 betas in 10 months, I reckon I oughtta know!
On that... I was walking up to the hairdresser on Friday, and I auto-piloted and walked to the hospy (which is sort of on the way) and realised that I actually kind of miss my weekly blood tests! Both from the post-molar and from the first trimester bloods, no matter how much I whinged about them at the time! At least with the post-molar ones I could have a coffee and didn't feel like spewing.
Hafta go ring my mum, so not a lotta time for the old persies. Work ahve started organising me a baby shower already - and they want a list of stuff to get me! Eeeeek! I actually don't really want that much stuff, but try telling the rest of the world that! Especially the ones who know our story... whoa.
Kit: can't believe you are eight weeks already (though i'm sure it feels like forever for you)! That's great that you've had no more bleeding. Killer pg symptoms sound reassuring.
Sammy: glad your last bloods looked good. Fingers crossed for you that brown blood is nothing of significance. WIll be hanging out to hear further news. What was Dr's concern with the back ache? Isn't that a common pg symptom?
Hi Audax: beautiful Avvie! Are you a 'singing in the rain' kind of gal? How exciting is it to get movement!! So lucky you can feel it already. THat's early.
Mummytomany: Congratulations on your pg. Hope all goes well with your scan.
EliseLouise: Thanks for the welcome
Dory: Hope all well with your furbaby!
Milly: All good news, that's excellent!
Murray: I've also had cramping on and off. It doesn't worry me because i can tell by location that it's pg and not AF. Does yours feel exactly like AF or is it in a different spot? I've also had back pain on and off that i have never had before when pg. Not sure what it means but planning to go to my GP on Friday and will ask her. I like you though would be thankful for a little classic morning sickness and not these slightly wierd variations of pg symptoms. But i'm trying to be positive and tell myself every pg is different. Your HCG numbers seem to be good so....onwards and upwards my girl!
HPL: Cute story about baby kicking to daddy's voice!
Mummyof4: I know what you mean: you think getting the BFP is the hard bit...and it is...but then there is more worry to come. I keep trying to remind myself to be happy, this is what i wanted! And of course it is but i'm scared to be too happy in case it goes away. But it sounds like you are doing really well and i hope in a few weeks time you can start to relax a little.
AFM: Still have mild cramping, sore boobs, back pain and slightly 'off' feeling here and there but not feeling super pregnant so every time i go to the loo i'm terrified i'll see blood. But at least i'm past day 31 of my cycle. i've never had AF later than that so it feels like real proof to me that i could be pregnant. (Oh yeah and the two HPTs i did that came up positive!)
