I know the feeling....its literally quarter past 4 in the afternoon here and my eyes are falling out of my head. Iv nodded off about 5 times since picking up DD at 1pm but the little toad keeps waking me up!
 
I took a 4 hour nap yesterday... and still went to bed and slept 10pm-9am.
I shouldn't complain though, I'm sure some of you mommas would love this luxury.
 
All I want to do is sleep all the time!! It's like my bed has suddenly become even more comfy as well :haha:

Took a fr rapid result today and the test line was as dark as the control line! Yipee!!!
 
Booked first midwife appointment 5th March.

Also my 12 week scan is 7th April.

Makes it all seem so real.
 
ohhhh jealous! my midwife still hasn't been in touch!
what bothers me is that they only asked lmp on the phone ... so they actually would have to assume I'm over 7 weeks pregnant! and yet nothing! if i haven't heard anything i might ring back next week. although the receptionist said between 9-12. How on earth am i going to get in for a 12 week scan if my first midwife app is at 12 weeks !

That's crap. I phoned docs and was given number for maternity services. Woman registered me and gave me my appointments, she was lovely. That's crazy about not hearing until between 9&12 weeks and yet needing a 12 week scan!
 
I'm still waiting to hear from my hospital, the email said I should hear by the end of the week though! So excited!

9-12 weeks is crazy!! Hope you hear soon!!
 
Yeah i hope so too thanks girls :) you feeling excited now you have dates natasha ?

here the midwife books your scan at ure first app. But they just "put in for it" you actually get a letter through in the post AFTER she has done that from the hospital with ure scan ap.
 
I had my tests done on Tuesday but haven't heard back anything. I go in today to have them test my hcg again to make sure it doubles.

The past week or so I've been very nauseous but haven't thrown up yet. Deep breaths, no movement, and ginger ale I think have kept everything down so far. I'm so thankful I don't have a physical job(it's largely desk work) because I know I couldn't do it. I'm so incredibly tired. Yesterday I was sobbing over nothing. My husband is like what's wrong??? What can I do??? Poor guy. I seriously woke up today and was like yeah I need to quit and never work again. I hate feeling like this! I do love my job
 
I just went for an ultrasound yesterday and found that my pg is right on track for my HCG.

Last week I went into the ER with bright red blood, and no cramping. They did my bloods and they were only 150.....thinking I was off with my date they did an ultrasound the next morning and didn't find anything in my uterus and didn't see anything that would say I wouldn't be pg. So had the repeat u/s yesterday and they found a developing pg and my numbers are 486. My Dr says it looks wonderful.

So I will be doing my repeat betas next week.

All through all this mess, even though I was bleeding, I still had my pinching and pulling, still tired, still peeing through out the night(sometimes even twice a night), still gassy, and my ms/food aversion is stronger.

I don't know yet what date they would put my DD at yet, but if we go by what the u/s saw I am about 5 weeks now, so would possibly due around the 19th of October, but I will wait until the dating scan to say for sure.
 
So glad for you allforthegirl!

I had my blood work done last Thursday and I called yesterday to get the results. I'm getting a little stressed because I'm not having many symptoms so I wanted to know what my hcg count was. They were able to tell me all of my blood results, EXCEPT my hcg levels. The nurse said for some reason the lab sends those directly to the hospital first and then they are forwarded to the appropriate doctor. That didn't make sense to me and now I'm wondering if something is wrong and the nurse was just putting me off so she didn't have to tell me bad news yesterday. They are closed today so I have to wait until tomorrow to call back. The stress and the unknown of the first trimester is brutal!

Thanks :flower:

I sure hope they aren't playing you and you get wonderful news.
 
I hope everything's OK Dandi! Yes, the first trimester is extremely stressful and worrying. :-(

On the bright side, it's awesome that they allowed you to have an appointment so soon in your pregnancy. And all of the worries so far are just speculation. Think positively! Fx'd for you.

AFM - my first appointment is Monday morning at 7:45 a.m. I'm very excited and nervous. My DH will be there with me because he'll be off work. Hopefully we'll get a scan that day as well and some pictures to take home!! :) 8 weeks tomorrow. Ahhhh!!! :)
 
Wonderful news allforthegirl! You give us all faith!
Fingers crossed for you Dandi, remember that by far the most common outcome of pregnancy is a healthy baby, although the internet tries to scare us with things that can go wrong.

AFM, the spotting is lessened today, I have also been put on progesterone suppositories so I am hopeful that they will help me. Doctor gave me an internal yesterday and said the amount of spotting looks minimal and my cervix looks good. My measurements have put me ahead by several days so I am now 7 weeks :happydance:

I cried in the doctors office yesterday. He told me that the last baby I lost in June did a very important job: without it I would not know about the potentially life threatening tumors growing on both ovaries. Now that I have had them removed, and the first month I tried, that baby has come back, plus one more.

Thats an amazing story. I believe that your Dr was right. Everything really does happen for a reason!! :flower:
 
Aww, AFTG, YAAAAY! :hugs:

Don't have time to skim through everything right now.


Just wanted to say that this morning we saw one healthy baby with a heartbeat measuring 7w1d. A few days behind, but that's nothing to worry about at this stage. :cloud9:
