[mommaplus05]

Thanks meg..I hope they treat u better at ur scan..they were really crappy were I went..im gona wait a few days n see if they call to schedule my nxt apt or anything then go from there..has me soo pissed im considering goin bk to a reg midwife and opting for a homebirth again..

 

[mommaplus05]

Ok now I just got myself even more confused!! I cld have swore the tech said I was 4+6..which is exact from my lmp..I mean to the day. But she gave me sept 3rd as my due date??? Wat? That dnt even add up..I checked to see how far along I was based on due date and that put me at 6+0 today..wat the hell? Anyone have any flippin idea now? She specifically said the due date they had me dwn for was sept 3rd. But I am pretty sure she said 4+6..DO U THINK maybe she was sayin 4+6 by lmp but sack measurement changed it to 6+0 puttin my due date closer?? By lmp my due date wld have been sept 11th..im sooooo confused and pissed the doc didnt talk to me..now I even more worried..wld they have checked my fetal pole at 6+0..they only saw sac and yolk sac..makes noooo sense.

Helloooooooooooo thee ladies....long time no post.

Amanda...exciting that you had your scan today.
But however it sounds all very confusing to me too...my personal advice is to phone through tmr and get some answers....me?....I would go and get a midwife and stick with her
Is thee any reason why you wouldn't want a home birth again love?....I would defo go for it again if you enjoyed and preferred it last time.
For sure let us know how "getting answers " go tmr.

Ashley...gawsh bird- how I miss you lol...how are you love.l.i see you got your possy today
How do you feel about bd coverage so far?...good I hopes.
So I see you mention you have a 24/25 day cycle...now Hun...I think that is a rather short cycle Hun...nothing MAJOUR to worry about but I would defo recomend you stick with your b vits...I KNOW they will lengthen your cycle for you...even if it is 2/3 days...a longer lp will mean a better chance for progesterone to progress and help with a sticky bean
I'm not saying you have a lp defect but the b vits will certainly help with lengthening it.

Natalie.... Yaye your scan is coming up shortly too....
And bless your cottons for worrying about gaining your weight again throught pgy...
You easy get it back off Hun..trust me...that lo will have you running around in no time and you tend to sweat off a lot of it lol...coupled with the fact that your so consumed with THIER diet you tend to forget to feed yourself lol.l.
Big fx for you love..li hope they manage to find out the sex of baba and he/she dosnt play games and hide lol...
Hay hay - finally you will be able to go straight into town and buy your first PROPPER "colour" item for baby.
Have you got any names circulating yet?

Talia....
I love love your new Avy....so sweet the two of you togther at Xmas with your lovely bump.
How cute.....so your facing the home run now. ...how are you feeling about the birth looming?....have you got any ideas how you want to birth yet?...of course I will recomend a natural drug free birth it is AMAIZING....a lil painfull(ok lies...it hurts lol) but VERY VERY VERY. Worth it.
Once you have a birth plan you will feel a whole lot better about the focus of the progressions. so how about you ?....have you got any names yet...?.....
You know it has to be a lion king theme.
I hope you are coping well in that awfull weather you have been having too...it's outrageous .

Anyways....I hope I havnt forgot anybody...

I have my doctors apt tme morning...eeeek so exciting...a lil nervous too...ok lies again...very nervous lol.....
I'm just so relived to be getting to the bottom of this LOOONG ass journey at last.fx for me ladies that nothing shocking/bad comes back.

Well I shall update you all again tmr.

Naaaaaatttttttt!!!!! Hi!!! I have missed you on here!!! How exciting about the appt tomorrow!!!! Hope it's all good news!!!! Will they do a whole work up?? Blood tests and all tomorrow???
I am really shocked at how early I got a positive opk!!! It is already going negative.... I will probably keep testing just too see if I have another surge..... Maybe my body was just working up to it this time.....however I did have the pains so who knows!!!! We bd on cd 5 & cd 8.... Hopefully tonight cd9 but not sure.... My hubby's father passed away today so he may not be in the mood, and I don't blame him! I hope I did o though because he has to fly home to South Africa and will be gone for almost 2 weeks!!

Hey ladies!

Amanda that sounds like a crappy u/s appt if I ever heard one! Very confusing indeed! I think you might be right about maybe the sac measuring ahead but at this point it's totally unreliable for dating so I don't know why they would even mention the change of due date! Hope you get some answers tomorrow! And honestly, go with a midwife, I really enjoy mine, I would hate being seen by an OB!

And Nat, as I said I have a midwife and I'm planning a natural birth hopefully in the water. I've been practising some hypnobirthing and I like it so far! Just have to get Kurtis up to speed! I've been so busy, working flu everyday since there's an H1N1 outbreak here, 10 healthy ppl 18-64 have died in the last 2 weeks.... So we've been mad, 2 hr waits and security at the door! TV Crews at the clinic everyday, just nuts!
And yes we've had names since about 8 weeks I think but they're secret! No lion king names ill assure you!! Hope everyone is relaxing extra fore tonight I still have an hour of chaos before I can go home!

 

[natjenson]

Ok ladies..li am back from my apt. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh this is so exciting.


So ok- ...he explained that firstly he cannot send us to the "specialist" untill he sends our basic test info first...so he discussed with pete about SA....he has to phone through next week to request a home kit and then rush his cute ass up to the fertility dept at our hospital on the same day to hand it over.

He has requested bloods for me to check...E2 ,FSH , LH , and inhibin B , prolactin and TSH , ASA....
this is booked for cd9 ...kind of threw me a little but that's what day (preficular testing) he wants to do....then I have to go in on cd23 bloods to run a progesterone check.
I'm very happy with today's apt...and he oppolagised for the "little" he could do for today but he assured me that these tests are a nessesary first step to get us registered at the local clinic...which I have just researched and not only are they great but they are now performing iui
I think this is the route we may be getting guided down her
For now too we are just running a few tests to to see if there is anything causing an infertility issue.

Well ladies what do you think?....
I am sooo happy we are finally on the right path...
I just have my fingers crossed that all is well...or something minor comes back that is fixable or treatable.
He even made a bet with us....lol....that we will not get as far as "extensive" testing.bc couples tend to relax more with ttc and that we bets we come back very soon and announce our bfp.lol....well if only that becomes true lol...we will see I suppose.

If you cant remember what she said then call them to confirm - that's all you can do! 4+6 makes sense to me if that's when your LMP was.... don't worry so much about the due date...

 

[OurLilFlu]

Yay Nat!! That sounds like a great appt! Definitely a step in the right direction! You'll get some answers for sure and see where to go from there! The doc sounds pretty confident so that's always nice to see! I hope his bet it right!!

 

[Petzy]

Talia - That is crazy about Edmonton.. my brother lives there and is getting his shot today. I am also getting mine tonight at the pharmacy... craziness!! Lots of people at my office have been sick... freaking me right out!

 

[Nataliieexo]

Thanks nat really hope he/she co-operates or i will cry i am so excited its unreal counting down the days here lol I am actually pretty busy after the scan but going to try get into town and buy a outfit because i dont have patience to wait lol

Not just yet i know for a girl we will be using my mams name as her middle name, but not 100% on names there is just too many names to chose from lol

And your app sounds good, deffo a step in the right direction and i am sure like the doctor said you wont need further testing, alot of people get bfp before big testing starts, so fingers crossed x

 

[crazy84]

Well girls... I got my positive on cd 9.... But kept testing.....tests got lighter...only got a flashing smiley on my digis......then today cd 11 I got these!!!! So maybe I had 2 surges and this will be when I actually o! I had the pains on cd 8&9 though! Weird huh?!

 

[Sis4Us]

Amanda that's great.. Im so glad you got some answers and you have the official 6+2 now Awesome.

And so glad that you have an apt in two weeks and you can surely see the HB then! Very exciting.

So sorry about the MS kicking in though.. I am lucky so far... Did it come in waves? Have you vomited? Did you get this with your other pregnancies? xx

 

[mommaplus05]

Meg I had mild nauseau w the other pregnancies but certainly not this bad..nor did I have the fainting spells. I believe I was almost this sick w my daughter..amd yes I have vomited several times over the past cpl days and the only food not making me gag is fruit. Ugghh I been libin on fruit and fruit water .lol popsicles r nice. Other than that its not happenin..I gag tryin to tolerate my vitamin as well..I feel truly awful..dnt wana leave the house or even get outta bed. Lol blaaa...I still have another 6wks to tough it out. Hopefully not that long though. The hcg is suppose to peak between 8-10 wks then go bk dwn. So im hoping this lasts a short time and I can feel normal again. I cant even kiss my dh without gaggin..talking makes me gag .lol if I dnt have fruit I just chew ice chips to try n ease the gagging feeling a bit.

 

[mommaplus05]

Hopefully u dnt get ms meg..its horrid..mine was mild w my boys so eother its just gona b bad for me or I gona have a girl. I just cant wait to pass the first trimester. Lol very thankful to be prego but very sick this time.

 

[Nataliieexo]
