2015 MARCH-MALLOWS... Due in March 2015!! Come join us!

[chelsealynnb]

Welcome new people! H&H 9 months!

I didn't feel much symptom wise today, other than sore boobs, thirsty and incredibly exhausted. Another blood draw tomorrow! I'll be pleased if my HCG level is 2500-3000.

 

[Bowmans]

Welcome bucherwurm and missfrick. Many congratulationS

Laska- yay I'm so happy for you

With regards to bbs that was the one thing different this month - they weren't sore but yep that is starting to change........


chelsealynnb - I'm glad I'm not the other one thirsty all the time - they say it can be a symptom of twins lol x

 

[missfrick]

Add constant unquenchable thirst, and super-bad hot flashes to the list
Keep forgetting things, but I'm sweating as I'm sitting here with the a/c on... 4+2...

How do you ladies try to stay relaxed until around 8wks? I am stressing myself out that it's not going to stick - I'm trying to stay distracted and stuff, but it's like the ONLY thing on my mind.

The girls here keep me sane.

I'm too really thirsty all the time and then that makes me wanna pee even more lol. Oh I too have a memory like a sieve - baby brain.

The more symptoms I have the more I know the bean is getting comfy. Time will fly - I'm 5 weeks tomorrow

EDD March 6, 2015! A complete surprise, SO came back from a week away working, and conceived that night! This will be my first. POAS yesterday and this morning, CBD, BFP!
So far: constant urination, swollen bbs, getting carsick, and cannot eat ham/bacon/cucumbers - I hope I don't keep having food aversions I love to eat!

I'm so nervous I want it to stick so bad. My SO is super supportive and even though this is a surprise, it's a welcome one

Congrats, I'm March 7th! It'll be fun to keep up with everyones progress & symptoms!!

Last week before I got a BFP I had CRAZY food cravings in ate a huge jar of pickles in a matter of a few days, also craved garlic bread, salsa & chips, lots of chocolate. I've also been super emotional crying at the drop of a hat! I also had a couple days were I felt pretty down & depressed- but this BFP has fixed that! Tonight I've started getting some mild cramping & urinary frequency. But other than that, I feel great!

Quick question!! When does everyone decide to tell immediate family? We're having a family get together this weekend for the 4th of July & everyone on my side of the family (my parents, brother & wife, sister & her husband with their kiddos) will be there. I know they will find it odd that I won't be drinking any alcohol so I figure they might figure it out anyways. I REALLY want to tell them but I know it's still early & a mc is possible.

Also- do you all think it's ok to ride in a boat? We are camping on the lake & boats are pretty bumpy at times. Anyone ever heard about this being bad?

 

[Bowmans]

I've told my mum - I wasn't going to but it just came out. I'm going to try and wait till first scan to tell the rest of the family but I think it's up to the individual - whatever you are happy with. At least then you will have extra support throughout your pregnancy plus you have always wanted to tell them on the 4th July x

I'm sure the boat is fine - bumpiness might turn your stomach if sickness has kicked in.

Hope you have a great time xx

 

[MrsKChicago]

I think a boat is probably fine. Especially at this point when your baby is the size of a poppyseed and extremely well padded.

I just texted my brother's wife to make dinner plans this week, and we'll tell them then. We've seen them three times since finding out, and I felt weird not mentioning it all three times. And I'd like to be able to ask SIL questions - they have an 8 month old. Mom won't find out til the world does, unless I have symptoms I just can't hide on our late July family weekend trip. I'm not sure when he'll tell his parents - they were estranged for years and are only just carefully giving contact another chance, so I don't think he's rushing to mention it.

We have a country house and I fully intend on going on the boat (but will have to pass on waterskiing).

I told my parents and siblings within minutes of taking the test (right after I told my SO). He is less-ready to tell his family, so we're waiting a while to tell anyone else (though I really wish he'd tell his parents - coincidently last weekend I was holding a baby and his father told me it "looked good on me") I guess just tell when you're comfortable.

 

[Laska5]

thanks for all the reassurance! I had been hoping all along to tell on the 4th but my husband was really against it. He's worried about telling my family before his family & offending his side of the family. I just told him we'll plan a trip to see them (they live 4 hours away) & we'll tell them then.

Ugg- I can't get my pregnancy tracker to work right! Am I doing something wrong? You can see the code in my signature instead of the picture.

 

[Laska5]

NM I got to tracker to show up right, but it's now so small. Is there a way to make these bigger? Sorry for the stupid questions- I'm new to using these things!

 

[lucy1]

I am SO bloated it's making me cry

 

[Bowmans]

I am SO bloated it's making me cry

No tears the bloating will ease and then we will be left with beautiful bumps. I'm having to be careful what I wear because of the bloating and like the other girls say it does get worse at night. The joys of pregnancy xx

 

[molly86]

A lot of you on here are discussing symptoms. So am I the only with no symptoms yet? I just don't feel pregnant. Nothing has changed yet.

 

[smawfl]

Everyone is different molly. I'm sure the joy if symptoms will hit soon!

 

[dan-o]

Molly they will come! Unless you are one of the lucky ones who is symptomless!

Chelsea good luck for your beta, fx for a nice rise!

Lucy I hear ya on the bloating front!!

Smawfi, quite the opposite, my digestion in soooo slow! Horrid! Hope it eases for you, it's the hormones messing with us I reckon.

Laska and missfrick, congrats on your surprise BFPs today!! and welcome!

Hi bucherwurm, congrats on your first ever pregnancy, how exciting!!

AFM, no more spotting, tests blazing.. Happy days

 

[dan-o]

Ps. I may go a bit quiet on Mondays and Tuesdays as I can't get online much on those two days, but I promise I will update ASAP if anyone joins or EDD's change etc x

 

[Loozle]

Morning ladies! Just a quick hello from me before I head off to work.
Feeling nauseous this morning and actually woke up in the night to pee for the first time last night! I've never done that before, even when heavily pregnant so that was a surprise!
I'll catch up properly later, hope you all have fantastic days!

 

[Ckelly79]
