2015 October Owls! | The chicks are hatching! *16 boys & 8 girls so far!*

[Dark_Star]

I don't even know how I'm not sick as a dog with an HCG of 235,000. I haven't even gotten sick once.

 

[Serenjay]

I have lost weight off my frame but my tum is swollen from bloat/constipation.

 

[Aliop]

Aprèslaube, hoping for the best

Meant to say earlier re the scans, here in Aus as a public patient I'm pretty sure you are only entitled to the 20 week scan and a NT if you chose to have it done is an extra one. We go private and I have a scan each time I see my OB so I will be having another next Thursday 😃

I've gained about a kilo and feel awful for it, so bloated and gross!

I'm praying I'm as lucky as you still haven't seen my baby yet it's driving me crazy turned seven weeks today and not hcg have started to slow it went from 9085 to 26000 in 8 days my doctor wanted the numbers to be in the high 30,000 still hoping next Thursday baby will be in there with a strong heart beat

Take it day by day Mrs Smith, the vast majority of all clinically tested pregnancies end with healthy babies. Fingers crossed for your scan next week!

Wow that good strong numbers. At 6 weeks last time I was about 6000-7000. So I think yours are awesome!!

 

[detterose]

So glad to see you back AFTG, that's fab progression!

Detterose - hi! It's ollie_and_mummy from IG! Wee surprise pregnancy on this end for sure Haha.

Hope all ladies are keeping well. I've contracted stomach flu and can barely even keep fluids down I'm pretty dehydrated now so looking like I'll need to go to hospital tomorrow as my kidneys are killing me. Just hope our wee bean is ok

Oh wow, we are all on October haha! How exciting. Our bean was very much planned after 3 mc's since Hunter so I am praying hard that there is a nice strong heartbeat at my ultrasound on Friday. Just a week to go!! Sorry to hear you arent well I've been sick also. Its awful when you are pregnant and have a toddler to look after

 

[Cariad_x]

Ah, I hope this is a sticky one for you! Good luck! X

I started bleading this morning, a mix of red and brown blood. Not a lot but it's there. We don't know if it's to do with my kidneys down to me being so dehydrated. Dr's at 12:15. Keep everything crossed for me please x

 

[3boys]

The nurse seemed to find it weird that the doctor hadn't called me. And then she said that I might just be leveling out. She asked me if I'm bleeding or anything which I'm not, the brown discharge stopped and I still think it's a bladder thing. No cramping. I have our first prenatal scheduled for next Friday so she said to just keep that and call if anything changes. I know you level out at like 12 weeks but when I took that I was only 7 1/2. I'm so sad.

You can start leveling out at 8 so it's not over yet x

 

[Serenjay]

Cariad hope all is ok xx

To everyone else counting numbers I would try not to worry, I read time and time again about not having the numbers expected but go on to have healthy babies.. x

 

[pink_bow]

Cariad fingers crossed hun xx

 

[allforthegirl]

I hope everyone is well and well wishes to all those going through a bit of a stressful period.

AFM I think my milk is starting to slow right down. He is still swallowing at the begining but he is spending more time dry nursing either for comfort or trying to increase my milk. I'm hoping I don't have too much trouble weaning him. I'm not up for tandem nursing at all.

It's pretty normal for doubling to slow down after your hCG hits 2000. I think that's a great increase, and I wouldn't worry.

I Had my first vomiting last night. Thank god for my husband. It was horrible. Tmi, but I was literally having diarrhea at the exact same time so when I threw up I threw up on the floor. It was midnight. Husband had me lay down and he cleaned it all up. I don't know if that was food or pregnancy related.

 

[Dark_Star]

Oh no, either way I hope you feel better!
Hopefully it was morning sickness showing up late and furiously!

Hope you're feeling better... I know how it feels. I'm having the worst ms, or rather "all day sickness" and have vomited twice so far.

Oh no Thinking of you xx

 

[Dark_Star]

I am gaining weight fast with the bedrest and these twins... none of my pants fit right anymore. But I don't want to buy maternity clothes because I don't want to jinx things. It's upsetting how gross I feel when I wear anything but pajamas. Dresses are not an option, it was -30 c this morning.

 

[3boys]

Oh wow that's cold

I'm trying to wean my mumma milk obsessed two year old gently right now, I think my milk has decreased a lot but with dropping his before bed feed I'm so full and sore it keeps me awake so I expressed the bare minimum last night before bed and still lots of pain by this morning so maybe my milk hasn't dropped so much?? I also do not want to tandem feed. I hope you can wean your boy easily.

Cariad, hope all is well xx
