I have had nausea since the day of my BFP...now i'm getting metallic taste like crazy, along with the ms. Anyone else experiencing this?
 
Oh guys, I'm hoping my MS won't be as bad as last time. :sick: :sick: It started at exactly 6 weeks too, and I found I couldn't keep water down by the time I was 8 weeks. I had lost a stone in weight, so I went to the hospital and they admitted me for 4 nights. I had drips and one day nil-by-mouth. It was horrible! The only good thing was getting a scan at 9 weeks to check that it wasn't twins! :wacko:
 
This is my 4th pregnancy and I've never had morning sickness! Feels like I'm missing out :lol:
 
I had absolutely no ms with my son but with my daughter I had it bad from 5 to 15 weeks

Yes, I am big time.

Oh good, I'm not alone!

My doctor told me that since I had ms when I was pregnant with my son it makes sense that I'm experiencing it again. Never had the metallic taste before though.
 
It may sound strange, but I'm a bit hopeful for MS, just because it is such a reassuring sign. It also helps make the pregnancy feel more real. With my son, I never felt pregnant until about half way through when I started feeling kicks and soon after a bump started showing. Before that, I just felt my normal self. Didn't help things sink in, him being my first baby as well.

I know some women can suffer really badly with MS and wouldn't wish for that, but some nausea now and then would be reassuring to me I think.


We've just had friends round for dinner. It turned into a huge gathering in the end, I don't think they bought my "I'm still hungover from last night," excuse, but no one questioned me on it! One of the couples announced their pregnancy tonight :D we're so happy for them, but it took all my energy to bite my tongue and not blurt out that we were pregnant too. Firstly I would never want to steal their thunder, but also, I really want to hold out till 12 weeks! Eek! So exciting. Their due date is in early June, so our babies will be really close in age. Most of them are all still downstairs, but I snuck away and am about to go to bed. Fatigued? Me? Never!!

I had my second blood draw today at 19 dpo. My number was 1725! :wacko: It was only 380 on Wednesday at 17 dpo... I thought it was only supposed:shrug: to double in 48 hours. I just saw the lab tech today and not my doctor, but my number will be sent to her so I assume she'll call me if she's concerned.

In the meantime, morning sickness kicked it up a notch today and I started throwing up instead of just feeling nauseas. I'd rather just throw up so the nausea stops, but it only stays away for about an hour or two at most. I'm grateful because I know morning sickness is a good sign, but I'm living on ginger ale and saltines right now.

How's everyone else feeling today?
 
Shana, my blood draw is 1700 something at 16dpo, you're totally fine! It was 586 at 14dpo and the doctor said I'm right on track.

I'm just anticipating my first u/s because those numbers are high for 14 and then 16 dpo. We'll see if I'm farther along than I assume. My u/s is at 8+2 so I'm wondering what will come of that date.
 
If it's not doubling in 48hrs they get a little concerned. But more than doubling is not a problem at all ;)
 
I had ms with my 1st and I remember puking so bad at work once that I peed myself, lol. Fortunately is was a sat, so low staff and my DH could bring me clothes. I'm so glad I haven't had it like that with any of my others. This being #5, we'll see what happens. I don't usually get it until at least 8 wks.

Hopeful, Lesh and dark river. I am so sorry for your losses. You are all in my prayers. :(

Thanks.. I'm glad I'm not the only one with a jump like that! Your numbers do sound on the high end for 14 and 16dpo... maybe at your u/s your due date will get bumped up! Another thing at the back of my mind is the off chance of twins... yikes!

Thanks for reminding me Clynn :) I'd definitely be a wreck if my number wasn't rising enough! I definitely am very grateful :cloud9:
 
From what the doctor told me, it's a myth that your hcg being that high that early indicates twins. It's not until around 19dpo that the numbers jump out of the "normal" range. They were not at all saying it could me multiples yet and even discouraged me from the possibility. Hey if it's twins, though, double the blessings! I'm just thankful that the hcg is there and doing what it's supposed to!

Oh me too! :cloud9:

I think I'm just paranoid, and if something isn't 110% textbook perfect I worry. But, like I said, I am so grateful to be having morning sickness and an hcg level that's actually going up! <3 My angel baby would've been due 8 days from today, so our rainbow baby showing up now is absolutely perfect. I always knew December was my favorite month for a reason :)
 
UGH...MS just kicked in. I haven't eaten much today because although I'm hungry I cant seem to figure out what I want to eat and nothing sounds good. Heartburn and nausea is not a good combination at all.:sick: Crackers and ginger ale aren't helping!

I'm also extremely tired, but can't seem to fall asleep. :nope::sleep: TGIF! because I don't have to get up early in the morning.
 
I was just getting ready to ask if anyone else couldn't fall asleep,lol. My mind is racing and my body is saying SSLLLEEEPP...! Had some sleepytime tea, hoping it will help. I don't have ms yet, but my appetite is def off. One day I'm starving, the next nothing sounds good, ugh. I think the heartburn was the worst for me before. I remember hoping I would throw up because it would get rid of the acid, at least for a little while. Hope it eases up for you !!
 
I can't fall asleep either! Or stay asleep! I'm so tired all day, takes forever to fall asleep, I wake up evey 2 hours. Ugh. And lower back ache is already kicking in for me. But it gives me reassurance that everything is going better this time around.
 
Can I join you ladies?! Got my early BFP Wednesday this week! EDD based on LMP is 8/21/14! I'm excited and nervous all at the same time!
 
Welcome to all the new BFPs!! My thoughts are with hopeful, dark river and Leah too though.

Nausea kicked in just this evening for me. Nothing too bad, but enough to be noticeable!

With my first pregnancy I had very minimal MS; just a bit of general nausea and occasional vomits right when I was needing reassurance! I was grateful to have it at that level; still able to function fine, but that reassurance that I was still pregnant!! Lol.

I gotta say, there is never going to be a 'safe' point to be able to stop worrying!! Miscarriage can still happen, still birth, premature birth... Then when they're out and that LOVE is real (nothing can describe it! What we feel now is nothing on what we will feel when we get to hold our baby!!) The worry just intensifies!! Are they feeding OK? Sleeping OK? SIDS/SUDI risks; are they still breathing??! Then they start moving and getting in to things to add more worry... And are they developing OK? Am I raising them right? Ohhh, it will never ever end. And I am so glad, I love it.

Welcome and congrats :flower:

Wow all the late August babies are making their way in now,.. Soon be time for a September group!

Feeling quite nauseous again this morning, and oh so tired! But its my sons 8th birthday so i am going to soldier on. He is currently sat playing with his Hexbugs, and it seems daddy likes them too :haha: My son is so excited, his birthday and the Xmas tree going up all in 1 day has made him very hyped! :happydance: .

flyingduster - You are so right, as parents the worry starts the moment that line appears on a HPT and it never ends. Its amazing being a parent and the most rewarding thing ever :cloud9:
