I'm not sure about the epson salts. You want to make sure the bathwater isn't too hot.
I thought the massage wasn't good during the 3rd tri...could be wrong. They have massages just for Pregnant women. Just make sure you go to a good spa who knows what they are doing.

Starry, sorry you are hurting so.

 

[jojosmami]

@Starry Night why can't you get a lower back massage in the 1st tri? I've never heard of that?

Feeling so tired too. Had to take a nap this afternoon because I just couldn't keep my eyes open. Yesterday was the 1st time I since being preggo but today I pretty much everytime I ate. Had to walk around the food store with a bag! I feel so sleepy during the day but at night I can't sleep. What's up with that? Can;t wait to go to the gym in the morning I feel like I really need it! Got my OBGYN papers in the mail to fill out today! This is so exciting!

Hi ladies! Hope everyone is well! I got my hcg results back today and I can't find anything helpful on the internet.

At 4 weeks (14dpo) my hcg was 144. Does that sound right on target? Every website I look at has a different range of "normal" hcg results. I was concerned because the paper work says I was in the 2-3 week range but now I realize that it must mean 2-3 weeks past ovulation... I think.

My HGC was 100.3 @ 12dpo and 221 @ 14dpo and the Dr said that range was a little on the high side so think your good!!

 

[Treykid3]

Jojo, what are you doing up?? So when you get sick, do you have any warning? I never actually threw up when I was preggo w my first two.

Morning sorry your feeling sick I feel totally fine now which worry's me, As I was so sick with my daughter!! So I got a beta done yesterday from fertility clinic, It came back 2000 they said it was high but I did get 2 popped back so maybe 2 baby's? Ive another beta on Sun praying its doubled. xxx

I found this online.

3 weeks LMP: 5 - 50mIU/ml
4 weeks LMP: 5- 426mIU/ml
5 weeks LMP: 18 - 7,340mIU/ml

And so on... huge diifrence in mIU/ml

If we take our beta numbers into account using the above figures we are both perfect hunni!!

I wish I was having more symptoms, it's worrying me that I'm not. I only have:
occasional achy bbs ... but very slight, and no size change.
occasional crampy abdo pains, but not much
slightly tired, but not needing any naps, just going to bed 30 mins/an hour early.
slight 'bump' - but no more than after a large meal.
occasional nausea - but only very slight and at night.

It scares me that other people who are at the same stage as me seem so much more pregnant, iykwim. I keep worrying that something is wrong. I just keep trying to remember all those women who don't even realise they're pregnant for months on end, so must not have had many symptoms.

2000 is about right for 21dpo I think, as the CB digi test displays 3+ at this figure.

I got a 3+ at 20dpo, so our HCG must be pretty similar xx

 

[fifi-folle]

Morning girls! How are we all?
I'm a very happy girl today, AF didn't turn up and HPT today was almost as dark as control line! Yay! Feeling really sick which is reassuring (at least I know I'm still preggo!) and actually got more than 3 hrs sleep last night (past few nights I've not slept at all well)

Lower back massage in the first trimester isn't recommended by some as there are acupressure points which could stimulate the uterus to contract and cause m/c (so I've read). Maybe try a wheat pack? Or sleep with a pillow under your legs (or between them if you sleep on your side).
My hips are really annoying me, I was talking to my best friend who had SPD in pregnancy and she said she had it from the beginning, she saw the physio at 11 weeks, guess I might be doing likewise.

Hope everyone is well x

Aww try not to worry sweetie!

I was so sick with my daughter I had to be hospitalized due to severe dehydration. I feel the same symptoms as you, every1 is different and every pregnancy as am experiencing. I have to admit I did worry and asked for a blood test beta. If your really worried ask for a beta.

Morning ladies
I'm sorry some of you are feeling so ill, hope it passes soon! I'm good today, bloated but otherwise perfect. Hubbie is getting used to me being so tired now aswel so alls good here!

 

[sparky32]

Morning Ladies,

Its the weekend.......yeah!!

Sparkle - good luck with the digi tomorrow, i'm gonna be doing one too and hoping for the 2-3, fx'd

Fifi-fole - whereabouts in Fife are you? I'm in Dundee so not too far away

well i think sickness has landed! Last night i felt very sick and dizzy and just couldn't sleep. I had severe hyperemisis with Grace and i pray i don't get it like that again, but if i do i have to take the good with the bad huh?

I'm thinking about going to get my bloods done on Monday. I got these done the last time but to be honest they just freaked me out casue mine weren't as high as others so i'm not too sure if i'll get any reassurance from them? Oh but what if they're good, argh early pregnancy is hard.

Anyway enugh ranting from me, hope you all have a nice Saturday xx

 

[Sofiekirsten]

Good Morning Ladies,

Well last night I had a tantrum because I felt sick all day and I have been feeling like this for the past 2 weeks and it is horrible. I would rather be sick than feel sick all day.

Got my scan on Tuesday and the MW so I will ask her if she can give me some anti-sickness tablets because I find it hard to do normal day to day things like getting out of bed for starters!

Hope everyone is well.

Much Love

x

Thanks for replying, I really appreciate it. I'm meeting the midwife on Tues, so will ask her about a beta test. Glad you're the same as me, everyone I keep asking IRL about it just looks confused and says 'no I was so sick/shattered/achy' etc. I don't get period pains/PMT at all, so maybe I'm just not reactive to hormones??? Don't know, I'm clutching at straws here!

hi ladies... feeling a little shunken up this morning as i was hit into by a cyclist he just came round the corner on the foot path!! and knocked right into me..

plus alll night and this morning i was getting odd phone calls of a number i dont know and im so stressed.

hope everyone is having a better weekend than me so far

 

[Starry Night]

I had a first trimester massage last time and I had to tell my massage therapist (who happens to be my aunt) that I was pregnant (I booked it before my bfp) and she said she couldn't massage my lower back or my ankles...which I thought was random. I think she said she's qualified to do pregnant massages so I'll probably take advantage of that at some point.

I'm really hoping I don't get morning sickness. I'm now working full time and work has gotten really, really stressful and I can't imagine being sick on top of everything else. This may sound silly, but barfing gives me panic attacks. So when I'm even the slightest bit nauseous I become absolutely useless. And on top of everything else, DH has been without work for some time. I can't afford to get sick. lol

I do seem to feel abit icky in the middle of the night when I go for my nightly bathroom break. That's when I get heartburn too

That's crazy...hope you are taking it easy today - sitting back and relaxing -

The phone calls - can you block the number? Over here you can block numbers of people you don't want to answer, or you don't know....

Take care babyhopes10
