Due Date August 6th 2013 Anyone?

[pola17]

Hey gals... I think Im out... got my hcg levels results, and got
Progesterone 12.37, and hcg 130

I think its too low!

Too good to be true!

 

[lovestory]

Pola- Sorry to hear that. Are you sure they are too low? I got mine tested twice already and just on Monday they were 350 (which seemed really low to me too), but they had doubled like they should have.

lsmarie-Also so sorry to hear about your pregnancy. Good luck with the coming months!!!

Hows everyone feeling? I have been on the other sight with all the August babies, but I can NOT keep up! There are way too many girls on there and I don't like to spend my daughters naptimes catching up!!! Will any of you stay on this tread?!!?

I have not had ANY (NONE) symptoms and with my daughter I was very sick by now so getting levels checked periodically and hopefully an ultrasound next week before we leave the country for a couple weeks! Hopefully all is well and just a different pregnancy for a different baby!

Hi ladies

Pola - sorry to hear that - I don't really know much about blood levels but hoping it's all Okay.

Lovestory - I can't keep up with the ladies on the other thread either - too many and too many conversations going on - think ill stay here

I'm also symptom less - slightly worried about that but trying to rem back to my 1st and think I was the same - nothing til 6weeks and it only lasted til 8 weeks

 

[pola17]

Thanks, girls!

My doctor said it was a little bit too low, but he said the progesterone levels are nice, so he asked me to get another blood test tomorrow (after 48 hours), and if the numbers are the double, that should be good news, and he wants to re confirm next week during an scan, that is not an ectopic!

Thank you for your replies! I really appreciate, as Im very scared! DH is so sad!

I would love to keep this thread going with a smaller number of us! I'm also on the other thread, but it is hard to keep up. I'm doing it right now because it's all that I can think about, but at some point I'll have to get on with life!

Pola, lots of hugs, and don't give up hope! It must be so scary, and I can't imagine what you're going through, but as others have said I think on this thread (or maybe the other one), hcg levels can vary a lot from person to person, but the rate of increase is the more important indicator, so fingers crossed you'll get great news after the next test!

 

[pola17]

Thank you!!

 

[lovestory]

How is everyone doing?? I started feeling sick for the first time yesterday and then today throughout the day... Just hoping it doesn't get as bad as it was with my first. ALTHOUGH, it gives me more hope that our daughter will have a baby SISTER! They will be 21 months apart.

Has anyone told family/friends? We are going to tell our parents this week. We are flying to England to see hubby's family and our daughter will be wearing a big sister shirt when we get off the plane! It will be pretty cute. We figure, we would tell them if something went wrong anyway so we wanted to let them know.

Hope you're all feeling well! And if not, it's for an amazing outcome!

 

[pola17]

Awwww I like the idea of how youre telling your DH's family.

I don't want to say yet. As my hcg is too low yet, next week we'll discover if it is an ectopic, or we're just earlier than expected!

 

[Xxenssial]

wow august babies already lol.

 

[Halliwell]

Hi everyone!! I am due 16th of August and so very excited!!

 

[lovestory]

Pola- my levels were lowish too but doubling as they should be! My period was a week early the month we got pregnant so we don't really know our due date. Hopefully the little one just implanted later than you thought!!

 

[pola17]

Thanks! Problem is that im not doubling!

So far, I've had 2 tests: the first result came on 130 and the next one, 2 days later came on 195.

However, I do not have severe cramping and i have never bled or even had spotting.

I don't know what to think anymore I try to stay positive, but at moments it's very hard!

 

[Mattsgirl]

Pola I really hope everything turns out ok and your little baby is perfect.

I agree there is way to much going on in the other thread. I like the small groups alot better. I'm not able to get on very often and when I do I don't want to waste 2 hours trying to catch up on everything.Right now I'm still exhausted and starving all the time! The last couple night I've been getting really nauseous right as I lay down to go to sleep. Hoping that it stays that way and I don't get really sick like my sis is. I called my insurance company today to make sure what was covered and what I was gonna have to pay for (we normally have a copay of $25 whenever I see a doctor) but thankfully all prenatal care is covered 100% by insurance, no copay, and when we go to the hospital to deliver the baby its 100% covered as well. So the only thing we have to pay for is lab work. And thats only $10 dollars for every trip to the lab.(not every test) So needless to say I am very happy right now. We were scared we were gonna have to pay the copay every time plus a couple thousand at the hospital. So yay for good news!! Now I just need to make my first appointment.

 

[Mattsgirl]

Oh and also has anybody else noticed TMI their nipples turning brown? That seems really weird to me.

 

[pola17]

My nipples are darker as well! Lol! And they look different!
I'm still on bed rest, but hanging in there!
Unfortunattlelly got a yeast infection (ewww) but my doctor prescribed something already!

I have an ultrasound appointment on Wednesday! Hope hcg ate rising and there isn't an ectopic!!!

I prefer a smaller group as well. Catching up is a pain in the butt. So many girls post in there, that when I told about my problem, I got ignored, but it's not their fault... It just that many pages come up, that you go to the last page and continue!

 

[RebaRezzelba]

Mattsgirl - yeah my nipples were nearly black when I had my 1st (and so round too - covered the whole boob lol) but I haven't noticed them changing yet with no2 - think it's still early days - dint thunk they changed til 12 wks approx with no1!

Pola - hopefully you get good results on Wednesday - fingers crossed

As for me - sick as a dog these Past few days - no vomitting thankfully but just want to curl up on the couch and chill but I've got a 16 month old so that's not gonna happen

 

[pola17]

Thanks! I'm surprised most of the times, I'm positive! I'll let you know as soon as I know something!

 

[anchor08]

Pola, it does sound like you're positive, which is great! It must be so hard right now, but I hope you can stay that way and expect good news. We're all pulling for you!

Right now I have the "problem" that the rest of you probably wish you had -- not enough symptoms. I know that's not necessarily a bad sign, but it feels like the days are ticking by so slowly, I wish I had more certainty that something was actually happening. I probably won't see a doctor until early-mid January, which just feels like a really long time of not knowing what's going on. I'm really trying to just enjoy these days of not feeling sick, though, because it could hit at any time.

Thanks! It's hard to stay positive, but I do my best!

Symptoms sucks, but like you said its a way to "feel pregnant"
I'm sure your little bean is just fine!
I wish time could fly as well!!!
