I find the ginger biscuits help me when i feel nauseous,

Im sure everything will be okay Monkei, we are all here if you need to vent.

Are you all going to find out the sex before birth?

 

[Autumn leaves]

Hi everyone, Just found out I'm pregnant with baby number one! I'll be due July 26th. We have booked an early scan for 9 weeks following an early loss a few months back so I'm counting down the days!

Look forward to this journey and seeking help from second timers!

Will definitely be finding out the sex!

Welcome, Autumn!

Anyone else suuuuuuuuuper crabby and irritable? Its awful

 

[TTC74]

I'm having tons of uterine sensations combined with gas and bloating today. That has left me freaking out at times thinking that I'm "cramping." After last BFP's ectopic demise, I fear that I won't get a tad of comfort until after I see my little bean in-utero.

I had my first beta hcg at 12dpo and it was 51. Then on 14dpo, it was 160. Today, I called the Dr about the pain on my right side and he ordered another bhcg and it was only 291. It hasn't doubled and it's been 9 days since my last one. Has anyone ever had this happen? I can't talk to the Dr until tomorrow and I'm freaking out!

Hi gypsy - not sure if anyone responded to ur post but I think I recall that u also had some issues with spotting, correct? I am a little confused about the dates, how far along u r n when u took ur bloods. I don't know if u heard back from ur doc, but I hope u were able to get some good news. I was spotting and felt pain on my left side which was really scary. I got my bloods taken at about 6.5 weeks and was at 10k. Then spotting and pain got worse and went in for us and been was okay. I hope u end up in the same situation. Keeping my fingers crossed for good news for u!

I think I want to find out the sex so I know if we are going to need to get boy things or not. Not that the ultrasound always gets it right…

Welcome & congratulations, hope all goes well at the scan.

I do seem to be a lot snappier at the moment. Trying to keep it under control but it is difficult.

 

[RedButterfly]

Mind if I join in?! ��

I will definitely be finding out the sex asap. I am so impatient, I could never wait. It's a surprise on the day of the scan or the day of the birth either way. I admire those with the will power to save it for the birth day.

Hello and welcome
We are due the same day!
Best of luck with your scan we are having a 9 week on too just before xmas

Is anyone else spotty! I feel like a teenager again

 

[ehjmorris]

Ive found im less patient lately and snap at my partner for nothing, just tired

 

[TTC74]

I had my first episode of severe moodiness last night. I was snapping at everyone.

I waited to find out the sex for DDs, but I'm not going to wait this time. As a matter of fact, I'm hoping we can find out after the harmony test but I'm reading online that the lab won't tell you gender after that test even though they could. I don't know how true that is.

 

[wanna-b-mummy]

TTC, my moodiness has been quite rampant too! It comes out of nowhere and I just need to vent it out and even as I'm moaning and shouting I'm thinking "you're being really mean! Stop!" But I can't!

Well I'm contending with all day nausea over here on and off all day long with half an hour breaks in between. I've yet to be physically sick. I just feel constantly travel sick and can't face any kind of food (yet am constantly hungry). Just went and got a load of ice pops and ice lollies as well as lots of biscuits and crackers. Hoping eating biscuits before getting out of bed will help ease the morning sickness that happens as soon as I open my eyes!

 

[dimmu]

Ever since I was just horrible to husband on Sunday I've tried to keep my moodiness under control and be a bit more aware of my words and behaviour. I do struggle to keep calm with DD at times though, I just don't have any patience now and keep snapping.

I was really nauseous yesterday, was even considering throwing up, but today seems better again so far. The symptoms just seem to fluctuate day to day!

 

[SCgirl]

My main issue has been exhaustion. I've been going to bed by 9 and sleeping till at least 7:30! (Hubby has about lost patience with dealing with the baby in the evening though- can't say I blame him!) I've also had a few random emotional breakdowns- those are always fun...
Yesterday I was freaking out b/c I still got a 2-3 on CBD, but I got the 3+ today. Time to stop testing- first scan is in 12 days.
I got my BFP at 3w3d, pos on digi at 3w5d, 2-3 weeks at 4w4d, and 3+ at 5w4d. (Last time I got 3+ at 5w1d, for anyone wondering!)
I also just learned that a good friend of mine is 8w along and just had a good scan! Thrilled for her, and that we could have babies very close together, but now feel like I need to keep mine a secret because it's her first and I don't want to take anything away from that!

gypsymama - Hope all goes well for you & your next results are much better. Thinking of you

Lavochain - Good luck with the appointment! Can't wait to hear how you get on.

dimmu - Like you, I'm grateful for the reassurance from the nausea but I'm definitely hoping it doesn't get any worse! I don't know if I could cope with HG again I've to wait a couple of weeks for my first appointment too. The time is dragging!

Monkei - I'm sure everything is fine! It's so easy to get dates mixed up. It doesn't sound like your doctor saw any reason for concern & I'm sure you'll be reassured at your next scan (which is only around the corner).

ehjmorris - We'll definitely be find out! Are you? I was convinced I was pregnant with a girl the last time & was in total shock when they told be it was actually a boy! I'm glad I found out in advance because I was so sure! Also, I love crocheting so I want to make our babies "coming home" outfit (or at least part of it) so I'd love to finally be able to use pinks instead of blues! (I've already started crocheting for the new baby using mint green! )

Autumn leaves - Welcome! Hope you have a great nine months ahead & good luck with your scan! Sorry to hear about your loss

TTC74 - That sounds so scary but hopefully it's just your body making room for your new little one. I'm feeling pretty ok but still won't relax until I get a scan so I can only imagine how you are

RedButterfly - Welcome! Hope you're feeling good & enjoy the next nine months

wanna-b-mummy - I'm doing the same! I have a pack of plain biscuits beside the bed. I find grazing all day seems to be helping me. Hunger definitely makes it worse so hopefully you can try eat something, even something small. Like one of my (many!!) snacks yesterday was just two grapes but it staved off the nausea for another while. Hope you're ok It was week 7 that it really hit for me last time & today marks the beginning of week 6 so I'm pretty nervous about what's ahead!!

 

[ehjmorris]

Oh Karry1412 that sounds like a great idea my mum is actually crocheting a green blanket too!
And yes we want to find out the sex but at the same time i want it to be a surprise... but all the gender predictions online say im having a girl, this pregnancy is different to my sons so it may just be a girl

 

[Hollynesss]

Welcome, red butterfly! When are you due?

 

[RedButterfly]

Karry1412 - Thanks I love being pregnant except for the spd I get half way through!

Hope everyone enjoys the next nine months!

 

[2b4us]

Ugh, anybody else tired, but having really crappy sleeps???

 

[jalilma]

I need new toothpaste... All of the sudden I can not stand the taste of the one I have! Blech!
