Sooooooo I guessed it rite MrsMaxxxxxxxxxx

I am so thrilled for you...!!! Wow...!!!



You forgot MrsMax I was the first to guess hun...!!!

GL for your beta tomorrow...!!! Stickiest baby dust to you...!!!

 

[mrsmax]

Thanks Regal and Jogu and Jogu - good guessing skills.

I did a digital test with a conception indicator this morning and it said 2-3 weeks Makes me feel a little more conifident ahead of blood test tomorrow.

What is everyone up to? I am enjoying my last couple of days chilling at home. Dreading gooing back to work Friday!

 

[jogu07]

welcome hun...!!! good, you need to chill now and tc of yourself and the little one...!!!

I m on CD 7 and today my temp dropped down to 96.6 from 97.4 yesterday so am wonderin.....anyways, heres wishing h&h 9 months...!!! Ohh yes, how did you disclose it to your DH...??? just curious...!!

 

[mrsmax]

Do you mean CD 7 or 7 DPO? If 7DPO could be an implantation dip.....crossed.

I thought about how to tell DH - I wanted to savour the moment. He came home from work and I made him a cup of tea and did the post work chat and then I appologised and said I had been bad and done a test. He was like "that's ok - I'm dont mind" (we had promised to wait until the next day). I then went and got the test and gave it to him. It took him a few seconds and then checked how it worked and I said yes, 2 lines means we are pregnant! He was shocked and excited and over the moon. He had assumed that when I said I did the test it was negative - as that is what we had both expected. We agreed not to get over excited though and take it one step at a time (proving very hard to do though!!!!)

Aw lovely story Mrsmax! I am really so happy for you both. Yay for your digi! Enjoy your last days off, when will you find out the blood results, does it take long?

I've been a bit emotional over the last 2 days. A friend of mine was a week overdue, had her baby yesterday but the baby's been in intensive care after a "traumatic birth." Not sure exactly what happened yet, she had problems breathing, but you don't expect a term baby to end up in the special care unit do you? So this morning the baby's daddy put a photo on facebook of my friend holding her for the first time, it was so so lovely. I was so worried all day yesterday. I text her this morning and she should be out of intensive care today and has tried breast feeding too (seems to like it so that's good.) God I can only imagine how worried they would be. I cried when I saw the photo, what a wimp lol!

Enjoy your last day off Mrsmax! I'm off to work soon, a late shift until 8pm, at least I've had a lie in lol.

8 sleeps til my holiday!!

[mrsmax]

MrsP - your poor friend! It just goes to show with this TTC/Baby game the worrying never goes away. So pleased the baby is ok now.

Where you off to on hols? So good to have something wonderful to look forward to x

 

[MsJMouse]

Just stopping by quickly to check on MrsMax's test.

Yay so very very happy for you! Congrats MrsMax. Can't wait to hear the bloods confirm it.

Hope everyone else is doing okay. Will catch up later.

[mrsmax]

2-3 weeks on digi?!?

Yep - hoping that is a good sign

 

[Regalpeas]

2-3 weeks on digi?!?

 

[Regalpeas]

Hi ladies

Looks like everyone's moving along one way or another

MrsPTTC-glad the baby is okay. Hope everything continues to move forward in a positive way.

Jogu -you're on to the next cycle?

AFM,

My thyroid levels are normal. Yay, but vitamin D still very low even with super dosage of vits over a 3 month period
Also two nodules found on my thyroid so I have to get check that out too. Pray for me. Trying to get my body sorted out for a nice comfy healthy place for baby to rest when the time comes.

 

[mrsmax]

Ok - so it is starting to sink in - I am having a baby Got my beta back today and at 16DPO it is 359, which the nurse told me was fantastic and they dont anticipate any problems!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 1st scan 24th May.



Regal sorry about your vitamin D level being low. I have never heard of that before. Will send all my prayers your way hon

 

[MrsPTTC]

Ah Regal, sorry you're having a bad time hun . What can cause vit D deficiency?? I really hope the nodules turn out to be normal. Sending my thoughts your way

Mrsmax, yay Brilliant news! Are those numbers so high that twins is a possibility or is it just in the normal range?

Thanks Regal, my friends baby is still in the special care unit but she's breathing on her own now so should be out soon

x

 

[mrsmax]

Yikes! I dont know - back to Dr Google, although from what I have picked up Betas arent a very good indicator of no. of babies.

 

[MrsPTTC]

Oops didn't mean to worry you! I know nothing about beta's just wondered... x

 

[rosababy]

Numbers don't mean much, you're right. Unless they're REALLY REALLY high, than maybe it's twins, but not all the time. My first number was 128 or something on 14 dpo and I had a friend irl with a number of 400 something and she's only having one as well.

 

[hopefulmama2b]

Regal- good luck, hun. I will be thinking and praying for you.

MrsMax, great numbers!!! You ARE having a baby. I can't wait for your scan! That's not too far away either!! Like you mentioned, betas are not a great indicator of multiples. Mine were (if I remember correctly) 24 at 11 dpo and 960 at 16 dpo. One baby here! I suspct my high numbers contributed to my hyperemesis, but not sure on that.

 

[jogu07]

Love and to everyone...!!!

Good luck and loads of baby...!!!

 

[MsJMouse]

Yay for great numbers MrsMax. Can't wait to see your scan.

Regal - sorry to hear about your Vit D deficiency. That is very common in Australia - which is surprising due to the amount of sun in this country - guess we are all so concerned about getting skin cancer that no one goes out in the sun these days!! (Vit D is generated by the skin when you are out in the sun.) Good luck with the nodules on your thyroid.

Jogu - good luck with this cycle. It is good to feel positive. My TSH goes up and down and has done for the last few years. Not on any meds as such - taking some herbal prepartions to support the thyroid and also added iodide supplements as the thyroid uses iodine to make T3 and T4. Hopefully you get your TSH below 6.

Nothing exciting happening here. Waiting for the cruise we want to take to go on sale. Otherwise back to work again - time truly does fly when you are having fun!!
