Hey ladies. So is anyone else peeing like a race horse??? Because I definitely am lol
Yes! And feel really sick tonight. Do u ever wonder if it's all in your head though? I do!
Anyone planning to get a Doppler for checking hb later on? Undecided if good idea or not...
Yes to peeing like a racehorse
I do wonder if the symptoms (especially my constant hunger) is just a placebo, and really I'm just using it as an excuse to pig out!
Haha. I saw boobs and chocolate.
and it made me smile.
It doesn't 'appear' fractured.
*whew* no surgery. Was terrified of this.
Extreme strain. And immobilization for 4 weeks then physical therapy.
Also. I've stopped wearing a bra. Because the boob jail was making it worse. Feels good to be free. ;-)
So glad it's not broken and you won't be needing surgery
I hear ya on the no bra business too. Freedom!!
Good news Pix! (Well, I guess as good as it can be, given the circumstances...) Hope it gets to feeling better soon.
As for me, well, my bathroom counter has become covered/cluttered with peed-on sticks. 'Cause I like to compare, to make sure it's progressing.
Today makes a week since my bfp. With the amount of money spent, I think it's about time to stop. And for my own sanity (but I'll also be going crazy without it).
I don't need a week's worth of old tests lying around in the open or taking up half a drawer. So- I think it's time for me to part with them. The other times I parted with mine were at the end of pregnancies, so this is a big step for me. (Constantly comparing, remember? sigh. i really am a poas addict)
So- I took one test from each day, made a photo record of the week's progression, and into the trash the tests go. It's a little bit liberating...
Well done you for taking that step! I've put all of mine in a little clear bag and stashed them at the bottom of my underwear drawer
I might keep them yet!
Hmmmm looks like this thread moves so fast that some peoples posts get ignored. I could take offence girls lol. Hope you are all good anyway x
Awww Tui sorry your post was overlooked
the thread does move fast though! I think more multi-quotes could be used to help prevent it moving as fast and posts being missed, not sure if everyone knows how to use the multi-quote though? Or they just don't want to lol! x
Well my beta today fell to 20.9 so it's definitely not a viable pregnancy. They're closed on Sundays so I have to go to the hospital on Sunday to get blood work done (what a way to spend Mother's Day). They'll do another HCG and want to make sure my kidneys are functioning correctly in case I have to take methotrexate for an ectopic since it's a pretty serious drug. They're fairly confident it's not ectopic but they just want to make sure all the base work is done just in case. I have an appointment to see my doctor on Monday morning to go over everything and make a plan going forward.
I hope you all have a H&H 9 months and wish I didn't have to leave you.
Shilo I'm so sad to hear this
my thoughts are with you lovely, please be easy on yourself and rest up xx sending lots of warm thoughts your way, I hope you get your bfp forever baby very soon xx
So sorry to hear about your loss shilo.
Has anyone been having weird pulsing like cramps in your abdomen?? I tried goggling it (terrible idea) it's not painful just like a pulsing every once in awhile.
Hmmm mine are more like stretching cramps/pains.... Are they like that? As long as you're not in any pain, I'm sure it's fine. Just bean getting settled in nicely
I seriously need to stay off of google. I google every symptom or lack of and worry myself.
My nip naps havent been as sore today and I googled
Googles my lack of morning sickness lol
Googled if only seeing a gest sac at four weeks is normal
I need to stay off it.
My back is hurting quite a bit today though...off to google I go lol
STEP AWAY FROM GOOGLE!
no good ever came from it!
Yeah I have noticed that some days my symptoms are a bit lighter than other days. Do not worry tho! I am sure your little sticky bean is just fine!
So, do any of you ladies know why some due date calculators say I am 5 weeks pregnant and some say I am 6 weeks? I have calculated from not only LMP, but from my conception date as well (since I am fairly sure of the exact day it happened). They all say Jan 4th / 5th as a due date but not all of them say the same length of time. I am so confused! Some of the calculators even have the option for me to enter both conception and LMP. They too would have varying results. Some would say 5 weeks and others would say 6 weeks like in my signature.
Someone please explain before I go crazy!
Basically it all depends on how long your cycle is as to how your EDD will be estimated, especially going by the LMP method. If your cycle was longer than the normal 28days then EDD by LMP will put you further along than you actually are. The most accurate way to work out your EDD if your cycles are longer than average is by ovulation. To do that you just count up how many weeks since ovulation and then add 2 weeks on to it, as those 2 weeks prior to conception are counted even though you weren't pregnant then. Confusing, I know! I hope that makes sense
It's the bounty app, honestly you can do everything on it, cravings, moods, sickness (time of day, how bad), movements, weight gain, exercise literally every different thing you can think of it's fab x
I was actually going to start exercising. What are the best exercises to do while preggo? I was just going to use the bike. Also how long should you do it for? The only weight I want to gain is the weight of the baby and everything it needs to survive. I want to actually lose body fat when pregnant lol. I know something that is probably hard to do but I am surely going to try.
I think the advice is you can continue with your current exercise level but if you didn't do something before getting pregnant (that's overly strenuous) then it's probably not best to start now. I think the best pregnancy workout is swimming, as it works the whole body and is gentle still. It's so good for when you start getting all achey towards the end too. I had awful SPD with DD2 and swimming always helped my hips and pelvis feel so much better afterwards. There's yoga and Pilates too, but the pregnancy ones are probably better than standard x
