No more tea for you mummylove, you need to find something you can hold down better. I'm so glad that your mom is more supportive. Sounds like you need to give your OH a work over though. Good luck with that dear, it's hard to change them.
Mal, I know it's far fetched but you really should go have it checked out. It could be anything, appendix, infection, contractions, or it could be your uterus is ripping. It does happen although very rarely. If you are having pain, you really should at the very least have it checked out. Please, for me????
Amanda and Braij, I'm so sorry that your mommas are meanie mommas. Your children are your greatest blessing and it just shows you what they thought of their own blessings. They don't have their priorities straight and they don't understand. You are raising your children, and don't let them make you feel badly for having them, you are ideed blessed.
Lucky for you Sweet Alida. My mom had issues with us having so many but I just never call on her for help and now she comes to us and never says a word. I think they know now that I live for the kids and there isn't anything else in the whole world that makes me happy.
Braij, can you check into state insurance for your child? I don't know what's available there but if you need help, don't feel badly for getting it. You'll have plenty of years to pay in your share and you can't go back and have your kids then because age doesn't allow those things.
AFM, I can see that I'm way too stressed. The money isn't worth the stress. If I need the beta to calm me down then so be it. Also, if I lose this one too I want it documented so I can get whatever testing or treatment that may help. SO... I called this morning and went in for a beta. It told the nurse that my test was lighter, and at this point I don't even know that she believes me that I'm pg anyway. I did have it done at my pcp instead of my obgyn because the hospital fees are so much higher. On the downside, I won't get the result until tomorrow morning. She said it'll be there when they arrive. I will call them if they don't call me by 9am. She knows I'm anxious for this result. I'll decide what to do tomorrow, but I'm thinking maybe have another done tomorrow morning just so I'll know before the weekend if it's going up or down. It's just easier to deal knowing.
I know that I drank a lot yesterday evening, over 32oz. after 8pm then some during the night too. My urine was the lightest of yellow, almost not yellow this morning. It's still very dilute now and I seem to be peeing more than I'm drinking. Well, we ate at McDonald's last night and I was all swollen and puffy at bed time. Maybe it's the trash food.
Of course, the more I'm stressed the more I'm trying to find any thread of hope. I shouldn't do that to myself, but I can't help it. I tested again with 2mu, 3mu, 4mu, and will likely test more. Just a quick summary, I'll put more on my chart.
This one shows 17dpo fmu and 18dpo fmu.

This one shows 17dpo fmu and 18dpo 3mu. I know it's not darker still, but my urine still looked very pale and it's very close. Yesterday's was very dark in color. If urine concentration really matters, this could be a significant detail.
