Hoping for our beautiful babies in 2013 :)

AF is due for me around Saturday... I feel like she's comin... cramps on and off today.

BOO!!! GL to you ladies, hope AF stays away!!!

 

[Blu_Butterfly]

Hi ladies.

Do you want me to post the scan? I don't want to be insensitive to everyone trying.

The visit went good. Was in tears. Little gummy bear popped up right away. Doc. pushed me back two days to 7w5d instead of 8 weeks but that's ok. Guess bean has some catching up to do! I heard the heart beat too. I have a follow up scan at 12 weeks.

 

[pinkhope]

Yayyyy Blu!!! No I would love for you to post the pics!!! Told you everything would be just fine!! So glad your little bean is doing well

AF just got me... EARLY. Awesome. (Can you hear the sarcasm as I type this?) UGH.

 

[Afamilygal]

hiya ladies!
sorry to be so inconstant with visiting, I've been doing my best to not go too nutty this 2ww (not easy to avoid- FYI, I am failing) but hi!
Blu! I sure hope you post that scan!!! cant wait to see it, so pleased it went well!
horray!

AF is due Sunday for moi. (boo is right! HA!)

anyone noticing anything different this month? I always get some kind so symptoms but it's never amounted to anything! (cant trust my own body- SHEESH)
only thing different this month was on 7 dpo I noticed my cm when I wiped was slightly (VERY slightly) pinkish... hope it is something good but to be honest, at this point I'm wondering if I made it up in my crazy head..

it was so slight and just that one time. who the hell knows...

anyone else got anything new happening?
xo

 

[pinkhope]

I was not hopeful at all this month... not sure why, just wasn't feeling it and AF came early I swear just to rub it in!! Had a few falsie symptoms but didn't think much of them because my body always plays those cruel jokes.

DH has a sperm analysis next week, although I'm sure most of the problems are on my end, will be somewhat of a relief to know his that at least his swimmers are good.

The cramps are starting to hit me now, luckily I'm off work until Monday so I can stay on the couch with a heating pad eating brownies and watching Gone with the Wind too many times in an attempt to offset my sorrows.

Afam- hope your pinkish wipe wasn't imagined and that you get your BFP in the next few days

 

[Blu_Butterfly]

OK.... here's my little bean

hello my dears, well this is going to seem kind of crazy but I am pregnant!
and I wish I could be over the moon about it but sadly, a lot has happened and we don't really know what is going to happen.

its kind of a long story but I will try to keep it brief. I was testing VERY faint positives on ICs from 9 dpo but I wasn't sure it was real since I had done the trigger. I had tested it out but it never seemed to leave my system and after 3 days of testing, the line wasn't getting any darker (nor was it getting lighter)

My temps were up (until Tuesday morning) but I started bleeding (lightly) on Saturday night. I was devastated since I had had a couple of faint positives and a bunch of signs but by Sunday it was a full blown period (like a LOT of blood, with clots and tissue and stuff- very unpleasant) but although I was bleeding a lot, I was still peeing a line by Monday so I called my Dr and they sent me in for blood work thinking perhaps it was a chemical pregnancy.

My HCG came back as a 3 and they say I was NOT pregnant and did an ultrasound/ cleared me of cysts for the next cycle and sent me home with my dosages for the 3 nights which I did that night and Tuesday (that's a WHOLE other set of concerns which I can't even get into now) but I woke up yesterday with this really funny feeling and I decided to pee on my last IC. the line came up darker and faster than the previous days and although my husband SWORE he couldn't see anything, I insisted they run another blood test. It came back as a 12. so 'technically' I am pregnant. but a 12?! not good... PLUS I bled a ton, A TON! so anyhow, the long and short of it is that Ill be getting another test tomorrow to see if the numbers double (apparently that is ALL that matters -um... I still say a 24 at 17dpo cannot be a good sign right??)

But If I get lucky and they do double, they will watch me closely with a perinatal specialist and see if perhaps the bleeding was from another baby which I lost, but I managed to keep one twin.
I did have 2 eggs so anything is possible.

I honestly dont know what to think let alone what to feel, all I wanted for 20 months is to be pregnant, but not like this. I am so freaking scared and although my bleeding has stopped I now have horrible back pain and cramping. I can't figure out if it is good or bad. I want to be happy but I'm too scared in case I lose this one too. I got so attached to the last baby and my heart was broken when I lost it. I'm just so afraid it is happening again.

so anyhoo. thats my news. told you it was crazy.
Regardless of what happens, the silver lining is that at least I KNOW I can get pregnant (which has been plaguing me since the last pregnancy) but I really really want this to work.. I thought the Tww was torture, but this is dreadful..

but I guess I will know more tomorrow right?

ps. Fatmumma- Im really sorry AF got you...

pink- hope you are feeling better now? speaking of brownies, I would love to eat a ton of them but cant risk spiking my blood sugar... grumble grumble...

Blu- love that scan- so beautiful!

 

[XxFatMummaxX]

Aww hunni!! I am really sorry youve been going through this!! :0(

My mum had a twin pregnancy and lost one and the other one is my 25 yr old sister! It seems to be more common lately or it maybe because more people are talking about it!
Really really hoping your levels double!! But I want you to know that when I was pregnant with my 2yr old william I had 3 positive(faint but positive )tests then a negative but I knew something was up because AF hadn't arrived! I started having awful pains and insisted on bloods ( by now AF was 2 weeks late so 21dpo) and the bloods were 5!!
They gave me a scan and found a sac and said it was a non viable preg!
I dunno if I've told you this before (partly long story) but the consultant said I wasnt preg and to take these tablets to "get rid!"said "I couldn't be as far gone as I thought, couldnt have conceived when i know i did, am I sure it's my husbands!!!!!" so apparently I wasn't pregnant but if I was it was my non existent bit on the side not my husbands!!!!
Anyway I kicked off said I wanted a second opinion and a sonographer took over and( I have tilted uterus) found the baby exactly the right size for dates but I produce hgc very very slowly!!
So maybe that's what you're doing! A slow producer!! :0)!!
I really hope that's the case and your little bug sticks fast!!

Lotsa love xxxxxxx

Thanks FatMumma, that's really sweet of you to share your story with me. It made me feel a lot better

I got my blood drawn this am and I'll be waiting to hear back from them by then end of the day. Something tells me its going to be a looong one
good news is my temps shot up this morning. I have been 97.6 since Tuesday and it went up to 98.5. I really hope that is a good sign! got all my fx!

 

[XxFatMummaxX]

Oh I'm glad your temps are up!! That is a really good sign!! Hopefully you've tripled just to catch up with"normal"!!
Sorry if I bleated on earlier but it frustrates me tht if your body doesnt seem to do what it "should" your not normal and that's wrong!!
Can't wait to hear your results :0D
Fingers toes and legs crossed for you.... The crossed legs aren't gonna help my cause tho eh? Hahaha
Xxxxxx
