July Firecrackers 2018

I have everything crossed for you, and all of my positive vibes are being sent your way x
 
Still waiting - have seen a nurse, waiting to see a doctor and hoping (praying!) they will do a scan to ease my fears. Thanks for the prayers and kind thoughts!
 
Ahh all this waiting only to be told they won’t scan me here (healthlink told me they would.. I might ask the nurse when she comes back) but will do a repeat HCG (my last one was 4w5d so over 2 weeks ago). I guess that can tell if it’s a really low level, so praying it’s high and won’t take long to get results. I’m just waiting for blood work now (all waiting all the time lately).
 
Oh, Alli - got everything crossed for you!! I'm sorry you have to wait and that they won't scan you! I really wish they would to just ease your mind!
 
Hope everything is good alli! That's very frustrating that they won't scan you.

Ameeann those numbers are good! Hope Saturday's are much much higher xx

I forget who else was spotting but I hope everything is fine and it's just the babe getting comfortable :)

We are with my DH's family for thanksgiving, they live in NY so we don't see them often at all. Twice a year maybe. I'm very torn on whether I should tell his parents and siblings tomorrow. Normally I'd be all for it but I've just been having such a hard time emotionally with the fact that I'm pregnant again. But they aren't judgmental and I know they'll be excited... and maybe that will help get me excited? Thoughts?
 
Okay so! my number was 70,000... doctor said he felt I didn’t need a scan and to see my doctor next week, since I had no cramping or heavy bleeding. I’m relieved my number is high of course but I don’t KNOW baby is okay. So i still feel apprehensive. Spotting has slowed down, is now only very light brown when I wipe, only. Nothing on undies. I’m praying I wake up and it’s gone tomorro or continues to taper off.

Thanks for the prayers ladies I felt them!!
 
Good news Alli! It's too bad they wouldn't give you a scan, just to ease your fears. But it sounds like everything is good and hopefully your doctor will give you one when you see them. I'm debating on trying to find a place to get a scan since my doctor won't do a scan before 8 weeks. It seems like December 6 is sooo far away!
 
Yes they would have only sent me for a scan tomorrow if they felt my number was too low or perhaps if I was bleeding or in more pain. Spotting can be totally normal. Perils of the public healthcare system i guess. Or maybe i just got a doctor who was more by the book and didn’t want to do it needlessly (even if it would ease my fears).

Next week I see my doc and she will refer me for a scan and I will try to get in as soon as possible but realistically I’m probably a week and a half away from one at least. Praying the spotting slows down or stops!
 
That sucks they wouldnt scan you, so sorry. At least your numbers sound good and fingers crossed the spotting stops. Thinking of you xx
 
Hi Ladies...I’ve been rushed down to SYD for work so I even only just had a chance to catch up on the thread. Still here and no end in sight currently.

Can’t remember who said it but it made me laugh at having a number of different apps. I have a ton too :haha:

Alli I’m glad to hear you’re numbers are super high but I’m sorry they wouldn’t give you a scan to ease your mind!!

Currently so tired but I think it’s because of the long days. For the past couple of days my symptoms have really eased off which is making me nervous!!
 
I have the doctors at 10:30, I can’t take this nausea any longer. I really hope they give me something.

My nan took my DS into school today because DD had started to be sick, she didn’t really talk to me or make much eye contact :/
 
Unique I hope the doctor gives you something and makes you feel better soon!
 
Argh! The pain in my hips is ridiculous. I have arthritis in my hips too, so whenever I’m pregnant my hips feel like they’re gonna fall off they hurt so bad, and nothing helps. Heartburn started tonight, luckily nausea stayed away for thanksgiving and I was able to stuff my face although I’m now paying for it :haha:
 
Luckily never had a problem with my hips. But my friend had to have crutches.

Doctors have given me cyclizine, I’ve never heard of it. I also had to have a blood test done to check liver and kidney function. Side effects are dizziness and feeling drowsy. I hope it’s not too bad, can’t wait for this nausea to stop.
 
I'm feeling really negative today :( not sure why, I'm not bleeding anymore but I just cannot find a logical reason as to why I'd only be 5 week's, even if I got my first positive at 7dpo it would still make me 6 weeks yesterday :( I don't know. I'm sick of waiting already though... Sorry to be a downer ladies, km jusy frustrated.
 
I remember someone saying months ago that at this early stage if they measure even the teensiest wee bit out it can make a big difference days/weeks wise. I remember mums on here being out at early scan but their dates caught up on later scans. I hope this is the case for you x Try not to worry, I know it's hard :hugs:

Thanks lovely, I really hope this is the case too! I've started cramping a bit more and stuff now but I'll guess we'll see! Thanks for your support!
