I finally heard back from the Dr!!! They said my levels rose perfectly and doubled just like they should have in the 48 hours. They had to leave me a vm because I was at work so I don't know the exact numbers but the voicemail said all is perfect and that they will see me on the 15th for my ultrasound.

momofone - that's GREAT news!! I'm so happy you'll be able to stop worrying now and enjoy the rest of the ride
switching gears - I hate to complain but I'm so sick of constantly feeling sick! This is my first so I had no idea how my body would react. I have, like many others, a constant and dull stomach ache. Luckily it's no where near wanting to throw up, but it's really tiring to feel like this day in and day out. Does anyone know if antacids or some other stomach soothing med would help alleviate discomfort?[.QUOTE]
sorry you are feeling rubbishit does get tiring and could last a long time still (sorry!). I would say though they are ok to take its unlikely gaviscon etc will help. There are a few common remedies people suggest you probably read them already but here are a few: ginger (biscuits, tea), travel sickness bands, grazing so you don't get hungry, tiny meals. I personally was only interested in chocolate milk for a large part of first tri last time, we will see this time! X x
I can't imagine they wouldn't though.
I did just use "bloody brilliant" in a sentence to test it out and my son looked at me and said "This isn't Harry Potter, Momma".
momofone: YAY!!! So happy for you.
littlemoomin: Are you British? I'm totally going to incorporate brilliant and rubbish into my everyday vernacular. It will go nicely with my Southern accent.
I have really eaten a lot today. :/
My husband laughs at me because since this site I have incorporated many words and I don't even realize it.

i went to university with a lot of Americans, so i can clearly hear the bizarreness that is the accent/dialect conundrum! Its time we brits started spreading our wonderful words around a bit more
