    hi ladies Yesterday morning I got my BFP! Finally 5 weeks today and have known for some time that it was coming, just wanted to get past today as it's when I MC a couple months ago. Haven't put up a ticker yet... waiting to get BT done by doc. Ringing tomorrow morning to make an appointment. woohoo!

    Congrats Smallfry
    For me it's only just started really interupting my day and night.

    ATM I have caught something gastro I think. I was so happy to see DP home from his trip then after tea my belly bloated to a balloon and i was sicker than I've ever been, thought it was MS but after spending the rest of the night on the loo it's not.... I just want to sleep. Dam clients, I poped into work, made sure I washed my hands but obviously it slipped through. Hope there's not a bad effect of pg.

    Greenslw - Hope you are feeling better soon, make sure you keep your fluids up and if it hangs around see your doc.

    Smallfry- I was running to the loo every 5 mins at the beginning aswell. It got better gradually, probably by about 12 weeks, then I had a good few weeks where I was normal and now Im back to the loo every 5 mins as bubs is kicking on my bladder!

    erybery, thanks for the light at the end of the tunel Of course you expect to be like this when you get bigger but... I do remember reading a reason for early pg peeing - some hormone triggers it but I can't remember which one.

    greenslw, doesn't sound pleasant. Rest up and maybe try some electrolyte drinks to help keep you hydrated. I find sometimes water doesn't help enough because it doesn't have anything for your stomach to digest if that makes sense?!

    Smallfryplus, I thought water was the best thing but after talking to my clinic this morning I'm drinking purple sports drink. Icky but it's sitting better and minties they are really really helping. Things have settled but I don't want to eat.

    Thanks erybery, I think being pg you panic loads more, I thought I had a fever, panic, I'm not eating panic, but after calming down, it's all back to normal (in my mind at least)

    Well some good news...... I'm 8.1 weeks pregnant little bubba is one week more than I thought. 1.65cm and heart beating madly. I love my u/s photo's such a special moment. So that means count down to no more IVF drugs..... Finish on the 13/7 but I said the 14th sounds better. Brother and sister inlaw + nephews go home to Canada on the 13th don't need to worry about anything else.
