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!

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!
CharLeigh~ Congratuations on your surprise BFP darl, they are the best aren't they, we also got our surprise BFP a few weeks ago now. I was totally convinced we had no chance that cycle, lol. Here's to hoping and praying for a wonderful 9 months for you darl. And we are all here for you to lean on as much as possible darl like Tegam said.
Hi to everybody else I have missed hopefully I will start keeping up with more persies soon ladies I have been feeling a little more alive the past couple of days, I am off for my scan tomorrow so please wish me luck I am going to need all the luck in the world for this one girls, I am totally petrified what will be found at my scan. I keep trying to pretend it all aint happening to me.
Welcome Char-leigh! Definitely echo the words of Tegam and CM. Lean as much as you like - friends don't always understand but there will always be someone who's walked in similar shoes in here. I hope the next 8-9 months are completely boring and the BFP is the last unexpected thing in your life for a good, long time!
CM - good luck for your scan! I hope you see a gorgeous little 12-weeker in there.
30 weeks today for me. Nothing too exciting happening here. Back is still awful - the number of times gorgeous DS talks about "back, oww" indicates how much of a whinger I am! I'm playing chicken with him at the moment at the end of the bath. He has to stand up for me to get him out, sometimes it takes a looooooong time, but I wait him out until he gives up - while I can still pick him up, I may not be able to for long and he has to help me out. He is lovely though.
Good luck CLairesmummy! WIll be thinking of you...
Congratulations Char-leigh's mum! I can only imagine the rollercoaster of emotions you are on. I hope being on BB can help you a little and that all goes smoothly with your pregnancy.
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 - Oh wow! 12wks already! So excited for you, and very glad your scan went well
afm - Didn't get the results today so peeved. Now somehow I have to make it through the whole weekend until my appointment on monday to find out the results.
At least this mornings test was even stronger - almost as strong as the control line! yay! I don't have any more tests left lol, and no $$ to buy more so I'll have find something to do to keep me occupied.
HPL - Oh I am really so sorry honey I really really hope you're wrong!
S & S - I'm sorry for your m/c I really hope you're able to try again in January. It's not far off, take care of yourself in the meantime. Exercise is good So sweet about your parishioner's gift. What a lovely thing to do!
Clairesmummy - Hope the m/s goes away soon!!! not nice! I hope you don't have to do insulin, but if that's what's necessary think of it as a sacrifice for your bubba. Isn't hayfever the pits? I've been taking Polaramine cause that's safe. Good luck for your scan! How rude of that bus driver!
JennaJayen - Glad to hear your little girl is doing so well How cute! Congratulations on the new little surprise!!! DH will get used to it Hope you get the results soon!
Loops - Yay! Glad your scan went well It's always such a relief isn't it?
AFM: Well I've had a pretty good week. Can't really recall the start of it so much, lol. That's the baby brain for you. But things got more interesting on Wednesday. I had told Mum earlier in the week that DH and I were planning to go baby shopping on Saturday (which is today and we're about to go soon) and she said "Oh, before you do, come over after work sometime. I have something you might want... although you might not want it until you have a second child." So of course I was very curious! Anyway, I went over on Wednesday and there was a pram! Double pram. One at the back, one at the front, so long, not wide. She had picked it up off a vergeside collection and cleaned it up. She asked the lady why she wasn't selling it and she said that she couldn't be bothered!! This is it here: Love N Care » Blog Archive » hi-rise tandem It's the CLOUD colours. Score!! So DH and I definitely took it. I'm of the opinion that I can use it straight away and why bother waiting for a second child? I'll use the other bit for shopping or whatever. DH thinks we should get a single one and wait until we have a second child to use this one. I reckon I'll see how I go with it first, then if we think it's too much, I'll get a single one and we'll put it in the shed. But cool hey?
Then that evening, I went to my first aqua aerobics class at a local private gym, run by a physiotherapist and only for pregnant women. It was heaps of fun and there were some other newbies too. My colleague at work told me about it but she wasn't there that night. Maybe she'll be there next Wed. But I really enjoyed it and loved feeling so light in the pool. Although it was a bit deceptive.... I felt like it wasn't really working my muscles so I worked harder to 'feel' something. So much fun, but so much pain! I'm definitely not as fit as I used to be. OMG I have been aching ever since. The last ache went away this morning. Panadol has been my friend the last few days. I decided I'm going to go to the local pool and do some of the things from the class by myself every second day or so, just so my body doesn't freak out every Wednesday night, cause it's only once a week.
Other than that, bubs seems to be good. He/she is fluttering away in there and I actually felt it from the outside the other night when I was lying on my side and it was kicking that side. I put my hand there between the bed and my tummy and could feel it with my hand, not just inside! Hope that increases more and more so DH can feel it soon!
Anyway, that's me. Enjoying my long weekend, thanks to the Queen! Gonna go baby shops now
last Tuesday, 6 months after losing Char-leigh @35 wks. Our emotions are a little all over the place atm but we are trying to stay positive.
