~*~* July Sunbeams *~*~43 Babies Here So Far!!! 25 Boys / 18 Girls

Forums New posts
I haven't had any appointments yet either. When I spoke to the nurse on Monday, she said that they don't usually book a scan until 6 or 7 weeks since you can't see anything before then. I assume that will be part of my 1st appointment, but I'll ask when she calls me with blood work today. I've been wondering about the flu shot as well since they are giving them here at work, but I guess if they gave it to you already then it's safe.

Wow, Simmy, showing already?! A friend, with her 2nd and 3rd, started showing at 6 weeks, though she's very petite.

Hope you're all doing well today!
 
Oh mememe! I'm due July 2nd. :) This is our first baby!

I'm having some worries at the moment though! I had some light spotting on 14 & 15 dpo and I passed 2 small clots on 14dpo evening. :( However I came back the next day with a massively stronger test so still pregnant...

However I spoke to docs today and I'm having my bloods done - had some today and some done on Saturday, he says if they're doubling nicely he'll try and get me in for an early scan.

Has anyone else had any spotting or bleeding? And any tips on how to stop panicking about my bloods? :dohh:
 
whigfield~Try not to think about it...

That's about my best advice, as I'm going for my second round today, and will be on pins and needles until the results come back this afternoon. Luckily, I'm having 4 munchkins at my place tonight, so I have general cleaning and activity set up for my daughter's sleep over tonight. It should distract me..I hope...LOL

On a side note, How is everyone feeling??

Me~nausea, constantly, but not throwing up, have a torn ligament in my knee, but refuse to use my crutches, because they hurt my boobs, and those suckers already hurt enough! Doctor has me on progesterone due to my chemical in June, that we believe was due to low progesterone, and while I will cheerfully take them if it helps the baby, the dizziness SUCKS, and I'm praying I don't get Jaundice, because yellow skin does not sound fun, although I would cheerfully deal with that to, as I and my OH would very much like it if this little bean stays put and grows nice and healthy. I already have cravings to, FRUIT, if there is fruit in front of me I pig out, speaking of which I'm eating a banana currently!
 
hi all :wave:

whigfield - my friend had a very similar thing at 14-15dpo and everything was fine. I really hope everything is ok with your bloods and that you get to see your little bean on a scan!

myra - I am wondering about the flu shot as well. at my doctors surgery they are recommending it for pregnant women. I am worried about having any immunisations right now but I think that it might be for the best to go ahead.

Does anyone have any thoughts on the flu jab?

mummySS - this is my first but I definately have a bloat developing!

How are you all? I am feeling so so tired today. Got my doc appointment booked for next week, but I am not sure a lot will happen. I think they will just book me into see the midwife at 8 weeks.

H&H 9 months to everyone :) :dust:
 
Thanks ladies! I guess I'll find out around Monday time what the outlook is. :happydance:

I personally wouldn't get the flu jab this early but I've heard of women who did. Maybe worth seeing what your doc thinks? What do you think?
 
Woohoo!! Got a message from my doc's office that my hcg level more than doubled- from 76 on Monday to 336 yesterday!

whigfield, when the nurse calls me back, I'll ask about the flu shot
 
Yay Myra!!!! That is awesomein, I just got my second round drawn, hopefully they have great news for me this afternoon!
 
On the flu shot~I've only gotten the flu shot while pregnant, I did with my daughter, and I did this time around while I was still only hoping I was pregnant. I weighed the risks for myself (and everyone's opinon is different) but I would rather get the shot and be mostly protected (by mostly I mean from everything it covers, minus strains that aren't in it) than end up with the flu for a few weeks, and depriving my baby of nutrients he/she needs. But that doesn't mean it's for everyone. I have plenty of friends who are very anti-vaccine and friends who swear up and down getting the flu shot gives them the flu. So, to each their own :)
 
Guess what??? My levels almost tripled (231)!!! I'm so excited!!! Have my first ultrasound scheduled to, they want to check due to my m/c in June. Novemember 10 at 8:00 AM can not come soon enough!!!!
 
Congrats, Meg!!

I asked my nurse about the flu shot- she recommends getting it, so I'll do so tomorrow.

Looking forward to my first Ultrasound & appointment with the doctor on November 7th!
 
I had the flu jab yesterday, just went with it as dr offered!

I'm very tired, still nauseous and dizzy.
 
Yay for November, as most of us will be seeing our beans in November!!! I'm so excited. I think I'm more excited for Christmas though. My daughter has asked Santa while sitting on his lap (a little embarrassing for Mama) for a baby brother AND a baby sister for Christmas for 3 years now. And while I'm praying I'm not having twins, as the thought terrifies me, one at a time is more than enough for me! I'm looking forward to seeing her face when she opens the present from Santa that will be containing a shirt that says "I'm a big sister!" and reads it. And the look on my mom's also, although, I'm not looking forward to that one. She isn't going to be happy, but she'll just have to get over it.
 
Evening all! :wave:

Serenity - congrats and welcome!

Whigfield - ditto, huge congrats :) I wish i had some better advice too, but all i can say is try not to get stressed by it, i know a lot of people who've had spotting through pregnancy and it's been just fine :flower:

Meg - snap on the sore boobs! Your daughter's sleepover sounds fun! Goodness me on crutches too, how are you coping?

2ndpreggo - congrats! :)

Lizzie - snap on the tiredness!

Myra - :happydance: Yay for the hcg!

And you meg! great news.

Abagail - congrats hun! Yup, felt a bit sick today too. Can't believe so early!


So as for me, the tiredness and nausea suddenly hit me today! Maybe cos it's thursday...????? I don't know - i work full time in the city (london) and have a long commute, plus my hubbie is travelling for work this entire week, plus i have a toddler to deal with.. that could explain it! lol

Also I had a little panic moment today about how the hell I'm gonna cope with my sickness at work, and how to cope in general with a toddler and a baby. Damn hormones playing with my emotions!
 
Hi, think I'm around 2-3 weeks pregnant so kinda thinking I'm due in July. This is my third baby. I have a daughter of 11 years, a son of 5 years (on Sunday) hello to all xxx
 
yes meeeeeeeeeeeeee :)

Predictor is saying July 4th for me 2!!! Found out yesterday, been trying for 6 months and this is my 1st. Lines are still fairly light tho so hoping that they start getting darker, im about 14dpo

Congrats all
