I don't blame you- you work in the medical profession and there are ways to find out which antibiotics are safe. It would be more serious if the infection kept getting worse. I hope you feel better soon

Let's hope the attachments worked.. I had my 12 week NT scan today!! Neck measurement was 1.76, HB was 156 and little beany fell asleep half way through and no amount of poking or prodding or moving was waking it up lol Bean measured right on track 12 weeks 3 days.. I just finally got excited lol

Kendra -- bummer about your back hurting! I saw some of your posts on another thread about some health issues you experienced (at least I'm pretty sure it was you), and it just sounds like you can't catch a break! I have always had back problems, but things are definitely getting interesting now that I'm pregnant! Hope you get to feeling better soon!

KE -- that's a shame your doc didn't give you a scrip for antibiotics, it's always kinda scary to self medicate! But, I do hope you feel better soon and things are cleared up.

As for me......I have my first appointment tomorrow with the midwife. (by the way -- has anyone in the US ever seen a midwife for prenatal care in lieu of an OB?) I'm officially nervous! I think I'm mentally trying to prepare myself to be poked, prodded and possibly lectured. Oh well...it'll all be worth it if I get to see the little one! I've had one MC before and it took us a long time to get pg this time around, so I am anxious to make sure everything is as it should be.

Happy hump day ladies!!

Hello, I was diagnosed with PCOS in May 2011 after 1 yr and a half TTC. I'm 5'7" tall, size 18-20 US. Took Clomid for the first time in late September, had IUI on October 5, and two days ago got my first BFN, blood test confirmed it yesterday. Already been worried about how big I may possibly get.

Thanks, I know it's wrong but it needed to be taken care of. I have a history of kidney stones and really didn't need to have this turn into a pregnancy-threatening infection. As of tomorrow... 1 week 'til my first ultrasound!

Update of mine while I have chance to be on here

. Had a scan yesterday and been moved forward another 3 days from what was expected.

Angharad, love the ultrasound pic!

This morning I had some tinged CM for my "spotting", so STUPID ME, I put a finger in to check. Now, I didn't feel me scratch myself but I did feel my finger push up against a wall. I totally made myself bleed. Like fresh, I just cut myself, blood. LOL, as expected it's already cleared up for the most part, just some residual. Haha. 7 more days until my ultrasound! Oh! and, 7 weeks today!

Another annoying thing for today:

Kaiser messed up booking my appointment. It was supposed to be a prenatal clerk appointment + ultrasound. I called to confirm that I'd have my ultrasound and the lady said that it hadn't been scheduled. She submitted a message to my doctor to try and get it done the same day. =(

It's kinda messed up 'cause OH went through hell to get the day off to go to the appointment.
