click on the image on the front page (or one in my sig, think it'll be the same) and it'll take you to the site, to the right you'll see some codes. Just copy and paste the code as you did for your tickers.

I've had it mostly ony right side. I know its normal to have cramping and such as everything is growing and adjusting to baby. Idk if it is normal to have it on one side though.

Same here. Felt pulling and cramping on my right side. I think they're normal growing pains. Had them during last pregnancy.

Hi ladies

Im due with #2 on 20th January with caught with our first month of TTC

I can't get over all the symptoms I'm having already! Gassy, feeling sick, cramps,bloating and acid reflux/heartburn don't remember any of these on my first! x

Well ladies, I had my first ultrasound yesterday and everything went great! It was too early to see the heartbeat, but he could see everything else. The blob was is the right place and measured what it should for 5w4d. I was so nervous but my dr was very reassuring! We had some trouble scheduling the next visit, so it's not until a week from Thursday. By that point I will be 7w3d so we should definitely see the heartbeat then.

Hi to all the new bfps

That's great Lindsay - I went at 5+4 and only saw the sack and a teeny bit of yolk so sounds like you saw more than me

I had loads of cramping until about 10 weeks with Alex and a fair bit this time its normal hun

My most recent symptom change: Sore boobs! They've gone from tender and just a little painful to quite achy... I tried to lie down in my stomach in bed last night and immediately had to roll over, because ow! Not as bad now--I think they don't like being stuck in a bra all day.

Those of you who already have kids: How early did you get a maternity bra (if you got one) before? And did it help with breast soreness?

Hey Ladies I have a couple questions/concerns...
Today I was having mild cramping..Almost like cramps i get before i start my period..They weren't sharp or anything but they were consistent for a bit..It really worried me. Ive not had any bleeding either..But the cramping does seem to be only on my left side. Should i be worried or is this normal?

I've had that sort of cramping too, and also mostly on one side. I suspect it's the side where our little beans have implanted themselves and are digging in! As long as the camps are mild and there's no bleeding, I wouldn't worry at all.

That's wonderful!

[NewYearNewMe]

I really want an early scan, we did with my little boy at about 8 weeks, so i might book one again for 8 weeks.

I am currently 5w4d, i cant wait to start telling people, we have kept it to ourselves for now x

 

[vtjess423]

Welcome to the new bfps!! Congrats!

xxEmilyxx, your first scan is the same day as my first OB appointment. I'm hoping my doc gives me a referral for a scan then as well. I don't know if she will or not. If she doesn't say anything, I'm definitely going to ask as there's no way I can wait until 20 weeks for a scan!

 

[lindsayms05]

I hope you guys can get in for an early scan! I was nervous that it would freak me out because a heartbeat wouldn't be seen but it was actually very reassuring. Ive had very few symptoms so i was convincing myself there was something wrong. Now I can't wait for my next one, lol. It's starting to feel a little more real now.

 

[flashy09]

I am newly in as of yesterday! Due Jan 26th, 2014

I hope everyone is having a great weekend. Sorry to those of you coping with MS. Emily, I can't believe you fainted! You must have been so scared.

Lindsay, yay for early scans!

VtJess, 20 weeks?!!?! So, they won't give you a first trimester scan at all? That's crazy.


I got back to jogging today. I was nervous, but I want to keep up my activity level for as long as I can. Got in 2 miles on the treadmill and then walked for a bit. So far so good...no spotting.

 

[Try Rocking]

ttc I was afraid of jogging too but I'm glad I kept it up. I was worried about spotting but so far I've been lucky! I've been doing it every second day and walking just about everyday as well. I want to stay as fit and healthy as I can this time around.

I hope everyone is having a great day!

I've been going to a trainer three times a week and a fitness class for your core two nights a week since my son was three months old. I was just getting in to working off the belly flab fr him and we found out we were pregnant again. Lol. Oh well. I'm starting this pregnancy about 15 lbs lighter then the first one and I have the go ahead to keep working out. Keeping the weight lifting within reasonable limits and I was told that the abdominal class I take is fine till the second tri when it's unsafe to be on your back.
I followed the same philosophy when I was pregnant with my son. I work as a paramedic on the ambulance , lifting and climbing in and out of the truck till I was 33 weeks. My son was born at 36&6.

 

[xx Emily xx]

Yep ttcfurrever it was horrible! I still get dizzy when I stand up, but it usually passes pretty quick! Feel much better with no nausea today

Congratulations to the new BFPs!

Vtjess do you not routinely get a scan around 12 weeks??

The only reason I am having a 7 week scan as well as 12 is because its an IVF pregnancy, there's noooo way I could wait till 20 weeks!!
