February Valentines 2012 - We have our first Valentines!

[MRS_HJO]

Hi Josefin, and congratulations. My due date is Feb. 14 as well!

Does anyone else feel like they constantly have a burp or a, ahem, fart, about to come but nothing happens?! I'm full of air but it won't come out. Is that normal?!

Also woke up this morning feeling like a freight train rode over my boobs. Owww! Seems a lot better now, thank goodness.

Just off to the GP in an hour, I'm going to Cornwall this afternoon for my honeymoon and my allergies are doing my head in, I don't know what is OK to take. Hopefully they will do my referral to the midwife.

Last night was my first night where I struggled to fall asleep and when I woke up in the middle of the night to pee, I had issues falling back asleep. I am so exhausted... and I have to go to work. Boo! lol.

I do get that sometimes, monkeydo. Though more often than not, I really do need to burp or fart. /: lol.

Brookettc3 and Johnsprincess..... don't worry i am the same, i woke up this morning and felt nothing. We just need to remain positive as much as we can!!! It will come with time

Thanks! I'm trying. My last didn't end well and I know that's clouding this. I'm just so scared!!

I know hun, same thing for me.. but we can't go by our last pregnancy. This is a new one and it is gonna happen for us!!! I really truly believe that if your negative you will get a negative outcome. I know it is still hard not to be scared, believe me... I know.

I have the same "cloud" - I've had a LOT of spotting with this pregnancy (all brown, but still) and haven't really felt nauseous which is different from my previous two pregnancies but really similar to my first - and that ended in a MC at 6+3. Holding my breath for this one.

No spotting for me...but just really no symptoms. My breasts don't even really hurt which I think is freaking me out the most.

 

[brookettc3]

I don't really feel the need to burp a lot but I am soooo gassy it's terrible all night I wake up also I am crampy because of it. :/

 

[Junebugs]

Junebugs- thank you for your positive outlook it truly made me smile I have never ha a loss and I can't even imagine but your strength is very amazing. I am
Going to go in early tomorrow and ask for my blood work then an I think after that I will relax if my levels are going up

Good! I hope everything went well with your appointment, don't worry i'm sure it will be going up .

 

[Junebugs]

My last (and first) was also a blighted ovum!

Really?? Wow that's odd, we are on the same path.. lol. Last night a had a bunch of mild cramping, not sure if it was gas or not?

 

[brookettc3]

Junebugs- thank you I have to wait til 1 now so I will get the results tomorrow morning. It's only 9am :/ I am getting so anxious! Hoping and praying for a quadrupled number!

Yep, really! Heartbreaking to go in there and see the sac and no baby, ya know?

I had some "cramping" yesterday and...this is totally embarrassing, but I couldn't tell if I had to go to the bathroom or if it was "cramps". After a few hours...found out it was because I had to potty!!! I felt better after that. But I've been gassy at night...

I'm having a Craptacular day. Just still really not feeling pg at all, even though I know it's still early. Have a TON of papers to write. My house is a mess. Etc etc etc. I just want my appt to get here.

 

[swanxxsong]

i . am . so . tired .

getting through the rest of this workday is BRUTAL, I tell you. BRUTAL. D: lol

 

[KjConard]

I am SOOOOOO tired today too! I can barely keep my head up. I can't wait until I can take a nap or get to bed super early!

 

[Junebugs]

Fingers crossed!!! You need to let us know as soon as you find out!!

Ya your telling me, the worse was i knew it was a blighted ovum but all my doctors kept telling me it was fine and i was just a bit behind.

When is your first appointment?

 

[brookettc3]

Got my blood drawn today should get the results tomorrow morning The ovary I ovulated from is hurting kinda worried.
If I am having an ectopic would my levels be lower?

 

[mrsraggle]

So far as I know with ectopics the pain is severe, really severe. Not sure about levels though.

I'm really tired too. I work part time and have a one year old too so I'm really suffering! Today she slept from 1.30pm-4pm so I had a good long nap alongside her!

 

[swanxxsong]

AMEN KJ, I'm ready for naptime! I'm so glad I get to leave work in 30 minutes.


And coincidentally I was asking my sister (a nurse and a mommy lol) about ectopics and she said the pain is extreme. seriously, seriously agonizing. I beleive I read that during an ectopic, the levels wouldn't rise as fast, but I could be wrong. I'd def ask the doc tomorrow!

FX your results are good!

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you and sending you good vibes! I hope everything comes back positive tomorrow!

 

[nightkd]

I thought the levels with ectopic were supposed to be crazy high? I could be wrong though.

I've been hungry ALL day...Even when I eat something, within a few minutes, my tummy is rumbling again!!

I seem to be getting stressed out more easily too... I think I need to take a break from my intactivism, I have no patience!! And maybe my games... And other people... In fact, someone lock me up in a little room with a cosy bed and a fridge stocked with yummy foods!! I'll knock when my waters break

Hello everyone! Found out this morning that I am a member of your club! On line calculator said due 9th of Feb! I'll prob have a section a week early which just about still puts me in here!

My name is Abbie, I have a 6 month old girl and a 10 year old boy! I had bp problems at the end with Kitty and I'm desperately hoping to keep my presure down this time.

Looking forward to a good chat with you all, I came in a bit late to my group with Kitty and never really got involved!

With my ectopic, the levels didn't rise as they were supposed to and I had spotting. At 6 weeks (or so -- I wasn't sure of dates bc I'd had a normal period), my HCG was 501. Three days later it was 532, and two days after that it was 593. I really didn't have any pain; typically, one wouldn't feel extreme pain unless their tube ruptured. My levels were never high enough to see anything on US, so I was a "presumed ectopic"; I was pretty textbook, though, as having a period, spotting, and slow-rising HCG levels are classic signs of an ectopic. Please don't worry that's what you have -- it's pretty rare!


By the way, I had my first US today! It's in my uterus (whew!), my due date of 2/1/12 is confirmed, and they heard a heartbeat! Wow!
