Hang in there babyfeva!! I am so hoping for great news on Monday!

Welcome to the new Ladies :)

Thank you so much, I appreciate it! I think that I haven't been feeling so bloated because I wear scrubs daily. I went to put on a pair of jeans to go out for dinner and uh, yah I could barely button them. So, I guess I am bloated... LOL
 
Hi all!

Welcome to the new ladies. I hope everyone is feeling well. I've had lower back pain for about 2 weeks. Occasionally I'll eat a meal and it will not feel good in my stomach. I don't exactly feel nauseated it mostly just aches near the top of my abdomen. It's no fun.

I'm planning on doing a short weekend trip with DH, so I'm hoping I don't get hit with the 6 week nausea.

Can we just talk about boob pain for a minute? Yow! I sincerely hope this doesn't last for the next 8 months. No thank you. There's no really way to get much relief with them either.
 
MrsLemon, I have had some dull lower backaches over the past week or so.

confuzion, thanks...I am hoping my digestive system slows down...I usually have the other problem with my IBS. I guess I would rather have the bad stomachache than the vomiting! I am going to try to eat even smaller meals more frequently and see if that helps any.

If there are any gluten free friends here I was searching online for some good substitutes for saltine crackers...I can't have wheat/dairy/onion/artificial sweeteners/honey/etc...so my best option is a plain rice cake. Other ideas listed were gluten free pretzels, brown rice pasta, applesauce and yogurt. Of course I am craving a juicy cheeseburger on a soft pretzel bun, french fries and a milkshake...this might be a long 8 months if I get more cravings I can't eat! :(

I craved for something different with a little sweetness, but not much and made some gluten free pancakes yesterday. That seemed to sort out my craving and I wasn't nauseous after I ate it.
 
MissEyre. OMG I know where your coming from with the boob pain. Mine isn't so much the boob it's my nipples. They are very sore. I sleep on my front but my nipples are telling me noo!!! On your side please lol. I think that's why I have been suffering with insomnia because I can't get comfortable :(
 
babyfeva - hang in there! Monday is coming so soon. I know how you feel though - I am feeling pretty much nothing today and it worries me. I did have to get up to pee in the middle of the night last night which is not normal for me, but then maybe I just drank too much water before bed last night. I dunno.

savvysaver - have you tried these? https://www.crunchmaster.com/home.aspx I think you can get them at Trader Joes or Whole Foods. I'm not gluten free but several of my coworkers are and they keep these (the multi-grain ones) in the lunch room. They are a bit on the salty side and very tasty. I like them a lot!

I'm just watching the time go by as I head toward my appointment on Monday afternoon. My MIL is coming to visit and do a little home decor shopping with me today (we just moved into a house last month and we have almost nothing on the walls!) so that will make for a nice quick afternoon. Hopefully the rain stays away so hubby can fire up the grill for dinner tonight too! Wishing you all a happy Sunday!
 
does anyone else occasionally touch their boobs just to make sure they still hurt?
 
I do... and I'm still testing 2-3 times a day. The test line takes all the dye and there is barely a control line to be seen but I still do it, just to make sure the lines are getting darker!
 
Glad im the only one im almost thankful that I don't get paid for another 2 weeks and cant justify spending money on another pregnancy test as i must of spent loads this cycle with clear blue digis!!

im more pregnant than ive ever been and yet don`t feel more relaxed!! no one told me that after a long journey TTC it would be so hard to enjoy being pregnant :( im disappointing in myself.
 
Woofie, thanks for the suggestion! I will have to check for them next time at Whole Foods or TJ's. I checked the ingredients and it looks like I can eat them, I love salty crackers!

Yep, I randomly grab my bb's throughout the day...even if they weren't hurting my constantly grabbing and poking definitely makes them hurt. I am only an A cup but I feel like they are fuller. I also have trouble at night getting comfortable...I am so tired all day and when I finally go to bed I toss and turn.
 
Angel, yum gluten free pancakes sound good! Thanks for a good suggestion, that would be something plain and easy on the tummy.
 
Catching up after a long weekend! lol.

Welcome Zebra!

My boobs are so sore. They were from the day before I got my BFP and now continue. My 2 y/o keeps leaning on them and I'm like NO PLEASE STOP! :brat: I feel guilty because I know she doesn't understand but I need to keep adjusting her during the day if she's trying to play or cuddle because she's wounding me. :rofl:

And yes, I touch or bump mine to make sure they still hurt. ;)

MrsLemon don't feel badly. :hugs: It's hard in the early stages to enjoy and appreciate pregnancy, especially when you've had a loss, long journey TTC, etc. I've been told by other PAL moms that it gets easier in time, esp after the scary first tri is gone and as baby movements can be felt. You're definitely not alone. I'm trying to enjoy it, but my emotions are still so laced with fears. It's a tough compromise! :hugs:
 
Wow, most of you are having sore boobs but I don't. The only thing I notice is that they feel heavy by the end of the day when I take my bra off. I didn't have sore boobs for my last 2 pregnancies either.
 
This is the first pregnancy that I've had sore boobs this early. They've been hurting every day since the BFP.

With my second MMC, I didn't get sore boobs until 9 weeks (which weirdly enough, was when my baby's heart stopped).

Scan tomorrow babyfeva, right? I'll be thinking of you. FX for a happy update.
 
Hey Ladies!
I know I already talk to most of you ladies over on the February hearts forum... but I was wondering if you would mind if I pop in over here too? I don't think this pregnancy really technically counts as a rainbow baby, but I had 4 angels in a row before my daughter and son were born... and I can't drop that overly cautious feeling that I think others who have been lucky enough to never had a loss don't seem to fear as much. I just think it would be nice to connect with others who have a lot of the same feelings and concerns as I do :hugs:
 
zombie - this group is for anyone who has experienced loss, so you most definitely qualify :hugs:.

You are definitely welcome here :-)
 
My boob soreness has gotten worse and worse since I got my bfp! It started as just my left nipple then my left boob then both started hurting now they are both really painful! Especially when I take my bra off at night!
