Hello everyone. My edd is January 27, a week after my wedding. We have been trying for so long, with 2 losses, so this is a huge blessing and I'm praying I will finally get to be a mom. And my bday is in 2 weeks. Hopefully the stars are finally aligned! I am at the lab right now, waiting get bloods drawn for my second beta and to check progesterone. Big hugs.

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!

That sounds good. I think I will try doing a schedule like that along with some weights. I was doing 5k about 3 times a week and weights up until the transfer so I definitely want to keep at it. The main issue that I'm having right now is that the darn estrogen patch keeps getting sweaty and lifting.

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.

Oh wow, you were on the ambulance up to 33 weeks, that's fantastic! I'm an L&D nurse and we're moving but I think I'm going to look for a job when we get to our new place next month. I don't want to be at home for the pregnancy if I can help it. I'm a little worried about applying for jobs pregnant though.

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!!

Em xxx

Em, we're IVF buddies! How many did you put back?
I hope you don't have any more fainting spells, and I'm glad the MS is giving you a break.


I'm so happy to see so many new January mommies

Hi ladies

I've just got my positive test today. If my dates are right then I'm due on the 23rd January 2014

I have mixed emotional I'm really happy finally falling pregnant after having a miscarriage last year. The due date falls within a few days of the anniversary of my miscarriage.

Then this afternoon I've had some cramping and got some light brown discharge. Both aren't continuance, the discharge is only a little every so often but nothing when I wipe.

My partner and myself have looked on internet and most say this is normal.
But I'm so scared that I will miscarry again.

Are these normal early pregnancy symptoms?

Many thanks
Samx

My name is Lacey, I am 24 years old. My DH is 30 and we have been together for 2 years and 4 months and we have been married 1 year and 8 months. My DH has two children from a previous marriage. Daniel is 8 and Tyler is 2. We had been TTC for 27 cycles and the 27th cycle gave us our BFP. We have done two IUIs and they both failed. We had to take a break from the IUI because my husband was getting ready to leave for training and we didn't have the funds. I was trying to budget the funds and was not thinking about getting pregnant and we were just having fun and boom 3 days late on my period so I tested 5.15.13 and it was positive. We are super excited because we were told my DH only had a 2% chance of getting me pregnant naturally. So this baby is a miracle.

Both cramping and discharge are normal during pregnancy. If you are bleeding red while cramping, then I would see a Dr. Have you set up an appointment? If so you should bring it up with them to ease your mind.

 

[samjm83]

Not had chance to get docs appointment yet. May try and get in on monday for peace of mind.
Thankyou x

Welcome to all the new January Mommies-to-be!

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.

I'm not sure. With my son, I had one at 7ish weeks but that was because I had some bleeding & had miscarried a month before. Then I didn't get another til 20 weeks. So I'm not sure how my OB usually does it. But I've heard some cases where they don't scan til 20 weeks. So I'll have to wait til my appt on the 31st to see.

Vtjessbdo you not routinely get a scan around 12 weeks??

I didn't with my son so I don't think so. But I think every dr is different.

I'd like to join the group I got a BFP on a home test on Mothers day!!! Had it confirmed the next day by a blood test. My 1st ultrasound is next month when I am exactly 8 weeks! I am due around January 20th. I have a daughter who will be 10 years old this summer so we are definantly starting over but i am thrilled as we have been trying off and on for several years to give our daughter a sibling.
