Hi everybody just checking in to say a huge congrats to Loops and Sara, hop everything goes really well for you both. I have been throwing up all week end and still sick this morning have spent all week end in bed. I feel horrible, i dont think i will ever get over being sick this pregnancy.
Hi Loops and welcome! My hcg at 4 weeks and 2 days with my ectopic in Jan was 227 and with this pregnancy it was 27 at about 3w 5d, so I reckon yours are about right! GL!
Welcome Sara! Sorry to hear about your m/c, I hope this little one is a sticky!
Congratulations Cheshire on you marriage. It sounds lovely! Sorry to hear your sick again.
The Mrs: I am finding that as I get bigger I just don't have the lung capacity I usually do! One of the perks of all your organs squishing up, I guess.
ALish: The due date looms closer and closer! I'll never forget you due date becasue it was the same as mine last time! I'm so glad you nearly have your bubs in your arms.
Clairesmummy: I found my MS started to petter of after 11 weeks, so maybe you just have to hang in there for a little bit longer and it might get better? I hope so for your sake!
Possum magic: Congrats on the birth of your bubba, I managed to miss it completely! I hope things are well.
AFM: Slightly awkward question...did anyone else get pain right down low (like 'babies exit passage' low) in 2nd trimester? I remember getting it with DS when I was nearly due, but not at 20 weeks. Also Braxton Hicks: how early did you get them? Everything is happening so quickly this time!! Ds's pregnancy seems to drag with nothing new happening untill right near the end!
Hi all

Welcome and congratulations Char-leighs mum! Wow you are going to have a tough road ahead this pregnancy...make sure you lean on everyone here on BB as much as you need, sometimes people in real life just arent ready to walk in our shoes or hear our pain....we are all here for you!
pqlal~ I have booked my scan darl, but it is my 20 week scan. Thank you for the good luck wishes, means alot to me. My scan is on Thursday the 10th November at 9am.
Hey everyone, I haven't been on BB much lately but thought I'd check in
So exciting to see all of you with your tickers plodding along nicely I'm so happy for you all!
Princess E is doing really well, rolling and babbling, almost 7 months old now!
And guess what! I might be joining you all again soon... very early days yet, so I need lots of sticky vibes, but I've had 5 faint positive tests in the last 3 days, slowly getting stronger, and had bHCG done today so I should get the results tomorrow, was a huge shock as DH didn't want any more kids and was going to be getting the snip soon and I was just starting to come to terms with only having 2 kids. 2 weeks ago yesterday we went on our very late honeymoon (we were married in Jan last year just after the first mc on our journey to have Princess E) and I could have sworn I O'd just before we left (didn't DTD until the third day of our honeymoon, so I'm only on 13dpo today going by that, 3wks 6d, due July 7th 2012 - which happens to be DHs birthday, he is not impressed with that lol), so this is very much a surprise.
he MS is already kicking in, feeling very queasy the majority of very day already, boobs are tender and feeling fuller, and this is the first cycle since Princess E was born where I haven't bee so bloated I look like I'm 4 months pregnant lol
So anyway, please keep it hush hush on the rest of BB and on FB as well if you're on my friends list on there, I won't be publicly announcing it until I hit 12wks and the scan says everything is ok.
I thought I'd let you guys know as I realy valued all your support while TTCing and while pregnant with Princess E.
Congrats on the newbies in here!! And thanks for all your congratulations to me for making it to 12 weeks.
Scan went very well today -- phhewww, I was so stressed going in. but BUB very active, nice HB of 143 BPM and all the right limbs and organs. We can finally be excited Not sure about the downs risk yet, but I'm sure it should be fine.
Loops: here are some averages I found useful from 4 weeks.
* At 14 DPO, the average HCG level is 48 mIU/ml, with a typical range of 17-119 mIU/ml.
* At 15 DPO, the average HCG level is 59 mIU/ml, with a typical range of 17-147 mIU/ml.
* At 16 DPO, the average HCG level is 95 mIU/ml, with a typical range of 33-223 mIU/ml.
* At 17 DPO, the average HCG level is 132 mIU/ml, with a typical range of 17-429 mIU/ml.
* At 18 DPO, the average HCG level is 292 mIU/ml, with a typical range of 70-758 mIU/ml.
Welcome loops and Sara - may your stay here be long and boring
Just a quickie - thanks for the concerns guys, I'm feeling heaps better, so not worrying about a PE any more. PM, I was on clexane last time so was induced - AROM didn't do it for me, and we waited for me to be ready to go. If I wind up on clexane again, I'll still be pushing the natural bandwagon, but it would be far more remote as the dangers of going into labour while anticoagulated are pretty scary.
I'm off to bed - hopefully I'll get on here properly tomorrow - take care guys - belly rubs to all.
Oh and CONGRATULATIONS Chesire! Nice secret to keep chick Glad you had a lovely day.
Thanks for the very lovely welcome and best wishes ladies! Really appreciate it xo. My 2nd HCG around 20DPO was 477 so pretty happy with that also.
I did later have a look online and found yes my HCG and P4 were pretty good but thanks for sharing ladies.
Becnxavi ~ thanks for your info. Yes I think I was about 16-17DPO when I got the HCG of 140 so according to your figures that would be above average - so happy with that! thanks again.
Wannabe mum ~ I love your post - hope the stay is long and boring
Sara ~ GL to you as well, FX'd everything goes smoothly for you.
I look forward to getting to know you all in here! Hopefully I am in here for the long haul!!
