I have coloured my hair since I got my bfp and plan on continuing to dye it......each to their own I guess :)
 
I, too, have lots of grey. I just dyed it last week and plan on continuing to dye it. I'm just taking extra precautions to stay ventilated when I dye. I'm not ready for the world to see my grey yet!
 
Hi ladies! So much to catch up on, but I'm trying my best.

I just recently changed my hair color from dark brown to blonde. I am stopping the blonde, as it is a two-step process of bleaching the roots and then doing an all-over color. I plan to use either henna or dye to cover the blonde (asking my doctor tomorrow/Tuesday once I get my bloods results) and then maybe highlights to help mask the greys. ;) We will see.

We're probably abstaining for awhile. I haven't been feeling it much and hubby's understanding. We both still are a little nervous due to my history also.

My FRER progressions have been great, but my digi said 1-2 again today. I got irrationally nervous. But though LMP says I am due the 12, I am pretty sure my O puts me closer to being due the 15-16. So I'm trying not to stress and am putting the tests down. They're great but can drive a woman nuts! :brat: lol!

I have been nauseous with some diarrhea. Also I keep getting this feeling of being almost-heartburn-ridden. Like, my chest feels a little heavy and burny, but not a full-on episode of heartburn or acid reflux. It's weird as hell. I just feel strange concerning my stomach and such. :rofl:

I can't wait for my blood test tomorrow. I am praying I'll get my secondary results tomorrow, though I doubt it. But if I have decent progesterone tomorrow, I'll breathe a little easier. And hopefully things will progress. I have a good feeling about this pregnancy, but I can't tell if I'm just trying to force positivity out of fear of another loss or what. I'm driving myself INSANE.

Welcome to all our new friends! :hugs:
 
Swan, try not to worry over the 1-2. They are the most ridiculous tests! Fmu is said to be most accurate but I've read of women following all instructions to a t then getting1-2 when their bloods the same day were in the 1000+ range.

I'm a cosmetologist. I would tell a client to double check with their Dr, but for the most part color is safe in pregnancy. I would caution that sometimes due to crazy hormones your hair will react differently than normal. You may need a different formula as it could come out darker or lighter than normal. Also, may fade faster or differently.

Swan, i would personally not use henna if you'd also like to highlight. Henna can coat your hair shaft and make anything else you use (such as lighter for highlights) come out very spotty. I've personally seen it look like leopard spots. Henna is pretty, but does not mix with other things well.

Overall, I'd say ask your dr to double check but it's ok with most to color. :)

Hi new friends!!!
 
Congrats to all the new bfps! :)

It's been hard for me to predict my EDD. I use pregnology.com and you can estimate due date based on ovulation date instead of lmp. I ovulated May 27th, but got bfp at 9dpo on my FRER. My cycles are weird and my lmp was actually April 28th! :dohh:
Has anyone announced to family already? My OH told his parents today. I'm not sure when I'll tell mine, but I'm aiming sometime this week. My hyperemesis will kick I'm around the 6w mark and won't be able to hide it after that!
 
We've told DH's mom & I've told my best friend. Haven't told my parents yet. We're planning on telling everyone either at 12 weeks or after my 10 week u/s (so we can show everyone the u/s pics). :)

Is anyone else super emotional or having major mood swings? I've had both for the last few days. Especially when it involves my DD. I go from crying and feeling like I'm not being a good mom or spending enough time with her bc I'm so preoccupied with nerves & worrying over this pregnancy, to going off the deep end over the smallest thing. Then it's back to crying and feeling guilty that I went off the deep end or that I was too strict, etc, etc. Lord help me but I can't seem to find any sort of balance within myself! Hopefully it'll all level out soon bc if it doesn't, I'm pretty sure I'm going to end up in a padded room before it's all over with! LOL :)
 
Hey ladies just popping in to say hi. So much to catch up on.

So nervous about tomorrow beta results. Been reading into every little feeling and slightest sensations to remind myself that I'm pregnant. My son right before I found out I was pregnant started being cold with me. He didn't want anything to do with me. Now this past weekend he's been sweet again. Makes me stress like why is he being nice again. Does he sense something?! I need to stop thinking and worrying. Aaah
 
Gdef, i had the same emotional spell today. Ds napped for 3 hours. Normally i wake him up after 2. Felt so bad! I also feel I'm too preoccupied with my symptoms etc.... feel like I'll join you in that padded room...Lol!!!!

Baby feva, i can't imagine the stress you're having right now. I was worried sick over getting my 2nd beta so I can somewhat sympathize. I don't at all think that your ds senses anything. Little ones are finicky and of course he will go back to being sweet...He loves his mama and wouldn't stay mad!!!! :) I've been praying for you. You have to have some faith and not expect the worst. If the worst happens, deal with it then. Try to enjoy today as worry only robs you of your joy right now. I will pray that your levels are perfect tomorrow! Meanwhile, try to rest, breathe, and maybe have a warm drink! Keeping you in my thoughts!!!

I've been very emotional lately too. Mainly just being weepy over everything. I was watching Ramona and Beezus (Disney movie) last night and I cried when the cat died in the movie :blush:

Funny story about my dd. I got my bfp on Monday night. But 3 nights before (on Friday night) while I was putting dd to bed, she put her hand on my stomach. When I asked what she was doing she said, "Oh, my baby brother is in there and he's scared so I'm just holding him while i go to sleep." Keep in mind that this was a surprise baby! We had not been trying nor had we even talked about or mentioned the word baby or any other associative words. I got freaked out. Like big time. So dd actually knew or maybe sensed it before we did! Unfortunately, she's been super whiney and just generally unhappy ever since. I do think that they can sense things that we cannot, but i honestly wouldn't look into it too much. I can change dd's mood towards me in half of a second with a choc chip cookie! Lol!

Ttc, come on girl! I'll make sure there's room for 2! Or maybe 4?:wacko: I yelled at dd tonight bc i was in the bathroom peeing and she came and just stood in the doorway and started talking....nonstop. Now, I've already given up my privacy by leaving the door open (just in case she needed me, haha) but i draw the line with being watched while i wipe. It's just my thing. So i asked her to step out of site while i wiped. She started whining. I asked again. Whining continues. Asked again. Whine... I'm at boiling point now. I yell..."get out of my bathroom right now so i can wipe myself in privacy!" She runs out crying bc i yelled at her. Then i walk out crying bc i yelled at her. This vicious cycle never ends! LOL! :)

Lol we can look after each other every step :) i read on my pregnancy guide the babies teeny tiny heart starts beating this week but will not beat the same as ours. Everyday im reading up on whats happening lol
 
You girls are so chatty! Lots of posts while I've been asleep.
I felt down and a bit emotional yesterday which I put down to dh being bad tempered in the morning.
Xx
 
Gdef, my daughter said "baba" (baby in Afrikaans) numerous times the past couple of days and started kissing me and be more loveable. She would usually just sit on my lap and hug me, but I am used to giving her kisses on her forehead since she was so sick as a baby and the habit stuck. I do think they sense things.

I am scared to have sexy time, but hubby asked me a few times. I will need to talk to him, because I know it doesn't cause miscarriage, but the the fear is always in the back of my mind. Maybe we can just be gentle, don't know. Lol

As for colouring hair............ I need to colour mine, but think I will wait a few weeks still. I am getting so nauseous already so if this goes on then I would mainly be indoors anyway.....and it's winter! Good excuse. Lol

I am going to my obgyn at 3pm today to get all the bloodresults. Hopefully I have a better doctor than the GP was! I am 14dpo and due my period today. Got a very nice line this morning :) I am done testing for now though!

I hope you all will have a lovely day! :)
 
Hello everyone and congratulations to all the new mummy's to be! !
So much to catch up on but I am just about upto date!!
I'm with you on the emotional roller coaster, feeling like absolute rubbish with nausea and loose bowels but not actually vommiting..which I think would be better..just get it out of the way, right? !?
Me and my DH haven't dtd since we found out we are expecting #2..I haven't felt like it and he hasn't seemed overly concerned so I think we are both subconsciously waiting until after our 12wk scan which will be end of July. .I think. I've decided today to have a big family bbq at ours the weekend after our scan (so we can be sure all is well) and announce it to everyone at the same time .. If this is a no go I'm definitely going with the cute printed t-shirt for my DD and letting her do the talking, as it were!!
Oh and speaking of toddlers and their tantrums...since ...gosh..I'd say for the couple of weeks she had been such a little diva!! Tears, tantrums and just generally being super hard work!! We are usually the best of friends but it seems I can do nothing right.
She's always been a poor sleeper and generally wakes at 2/3am for about half hour or so for a drink then I put her back to bed but these last few nights she has been shocking...to the point my DH has told me to leave the housework and go back to bed today whilst DD is at nursery and he's at work!!
We have a long but exciting road ahead of us ladies!! Let's hold tight and enjoy the ride!!
Love and hugs to you all xoxo
 
I have had nausea in the evenings from about 4+4. Followed by nausea and diarrhoea for about three days now
