[mummygabby]

hi Ladies love the name of the new thread, just to let u know all went well at Docs today back next week again they are being very good at keeping an eye on me then EPC on the 18th January can;t come soon enough just want to hear that heartbeat and maybe i will settle a bit

 

[BreeLeeC]

Love the new name. It sounds great!!! Has anyone called their doctors or midwives yet? I emailed my midwife yesterday to give her the heads up but I can't seem to remember when we go for our first checkups? It seems so early still? I had a very normal and easy pregnancy last time but the pregnancy previous to that was a missed miscarriage at 11 weeks so she sent me for early scans just to keep my mind at ease. I know my mind is going crazy lately worrying about every little twitch or cramp. I swear everytime I wipe i'm looking for blood Wish I could just sit back and enjoy this portion of it..... anyone else worrying like crazy?????????

Any of you guys not feeling excited? I've had two miscarriages and my body and heart just won't let me believe it's going to work out this time I don't feel pregnant, my boobs feel fine, I don't feel any more tired than I usually do, I'm not peeing any more than normal.. I did get to see the doctor yesterday and had my first beta levels checked, my hcg was at 76 yesterday. I go back again tomorrow (and then every 2 days for as long as I want) and I'm really worried the number won't double as it should.. My next appointment is on the 18th and from there I get to schedule an ultrasound (so long as my beta levels come back good) and I'm even more scared of that. My last two pregnancies were missed miscarriages that I didn't find out about until my first ultrasounds. I'm so scared it's going to happen again.

sunkiss, how are you holding it together after your loss? Are you having a difficult time?

I am waiting a week or two before calling my dr, had a chemical last month at 4w2d and im worried it could happen again (although im trying not to think about it)

I feel different to last time though, last time I thought something would happen and this time i feel much more confident it will go ok (really hope so) Ive gone so far as to look at baby things online (which iwas doing anyway whilst TTC)

I am feeling quite sick at hte moment and have a tummy ache (not cramps just a hungry feeling)

MrsMcD123- Im so sorry you are having such a tough time. Try to just relax and remember to breath. You have to stay positive and just believe it will happen if its supposed to. Its out of your hands now and there really is nothing you can do. Its on the man upstairs court now.

BreeLeeC-I Have already called my OB/Gyn and have an early appointment for this next Thursday. I am so excited to go but Im pretty sure they wont do a scan until the next week or maybe even next day. In my Dr.'s office they cant do a scan the same day they do the confirmation b/c of insurance reasons. Dumb! Im really ready to see my lil sticky bean. Im trying to be very optimistic about this pregnancy. Obviously my last one didnt end with a rainbow baby but I just have a good feeling about this one.

I think being catious is an OK thing, but worrying is not a fun past time. I think if we are all very honest about our feelings it helps get it out of our systems and perhalps make us feel a bit better about it. I guess it is true, there is nothing we can do at this point but try and be healthy and take our vitamins. I have read that more then 2 cups of caffeine a day can up your chances of miscarriage so I have been trying to have Zero intake of caffeine until the 12 weeks mark.
Having hardly any symtoms makes it even more tough, nothing to make it feel real. My acne has started up for the first time since basically sept 2008 when I was pregnant with my son and I can't believe how happy I am to see these awful red spots
Lets all try our bests to stay positive and if we are ever having down moments and are beginning to let the worrying get the best of us- BLOG, come on here and vent!! Venting makes it feel better and someone will be here to listen i'm sure. Positive updates on appts and scans will definately make us all keep our chins up as well.
Maybe at some point we could start a belly comparison gallery- as long as we feel comfortable!! Would be fun to see who starts showing when!!!!!

wow i didnt realize so many of us have angel babies...well let me ease ur minds right now, i am praying so hard for us, we are covered, we have those little angels watching over us n bringing comfort, trust me they will see us through this..after the devastation of birthing my baby to know she wasnt gonna make it absolutely crushed my heart to pieces, i felt like i was walking around with no heart like she took it with her the day she left me, the thing is she never left, i always feel her all around me, when i am @ my lowest she sends someone or something to pick me back up, lets just say our angels came here n did what they were suppose to do, they were picked for much bigger jobs, i'm so happy n honored that God chose me to have an angel, i know i am always protected with her in my life, hold onto that ladies..this is going to be our year, i promise u!!

as for me, i am going to a maternal fetal specialist on friday, mind u this appt was made since last yr oct, it all fell in line for a reason, i have the greatest feeling in the pit of my stomach that this will be a successful pregnancy !!

MrsMcD123- With my son- my boobs were never sore, I never pee'd anymore then I nomally did and my morning sickness didnt kick in till I was almost 9 weeks. I had pretty much no symptoms!! If that makes you feel any better.

I also rented a fetal heart rate doppler at about 8 weeks- I didnt hear a heart beat through it until i was about 10 weeks but it sure made me feel better to hear the HB whenever I was nervous or worrying. I cost very little in the long run if you look at how much worrying and stress it saved me! I would highly recommend it to ppl that are feeling nervous or stressed about their pregnancies!

 

[BreeLeeC]

Sunkiss- your postive outlook is sooo refreshing and needed to help us worry warts Thank you soooo much!!!

That does help. It just seems that when pregnant the first thing people talk about is sore boobs and it just freaks me out that I feel so..normal. I'll definitely be buying a doppler the minute I get home from a good ultrasound! Still have 3 weeks to a month until then though

i dont have much symptoms either ladies, but i am starting to feel fatigue and headaches which i had early on with my daughter, the next thing that happened was the boobs killing me..i never had morning sickness with her, i barley felt preggo until i felt her moving..i will be so happy if i dont get that morning sickness but if i do its ok, i am just so happy to be preggo again

i didnt show much either and i was almost 5 mths, i had a small bump but they say u show more with the 2nd, so i am looking forward to that, i remember i couldnt wait to get my bump lol, funny how we never want a belly until we are preggo

[Crownjewelz]

Sunkiss you really are the best! I seriously just love this thread!! So thankful and grateful to have found some really lovely ladies on here.
I am also feeling normal besides gas, fatigue and mild cramping. I remember my boobs started to kill at about 6 weeks though. Not looking forward to that but Im sure it will help me feel a bit more pregnant.

 

[sunkiss]

Still feeling the same today. I guess I feel a little bloated, mostly when I try to lay on my side at night. I don't remember when my boobs started hurting last time but I look forward to it!! Other than that, I'm super nervous, I have my second beta check today, I go in around 4:30 and I'll probably have the results by 6:30. Me and hubby will be at his parents house for dinner so I'm going to have to find a discreet way to pull him aside to look at the results because there is no way I'm going to be able to hold off on looking until we get home!

How are you holding up sunkiss? Are you getting good sleep?

 

[sunkiss]

welcome hoping, hold on i am keeping it crossed for u

ok i will be praying ur numbers are good, but no worries because this early on they may still be a little low.

i have been feeling pretty good actually, not too much going on yet, i know i cant wait for the symptoms too so i can feel more pregnant...i hope we can look back on this later when we are feeling like crap from symptoms ha ha..i rested pretty good last night, went to bed early as fatigue is the only thing i pretty much feel mostly, i cant wait for my appt tomoro so i can see what my levels are like and get some questions answered, im looking forward to that.

we are gonna be mommies wooohooo
