What was everyones numbers from bloodwork, if you had them done? And how far along?

No clue! She just left me a message on my voicemail saying that I was indeed pregnant and that I have to go back to make sure my numbers go up.

Hi ladies. I had my doctors appointment today. I feel crappy.
The doctor firstly told me I wasn't even 4 weeks and I had to count on her calendar to show her I'm 5+1... And then she told me I was silly having my appointment so early because I might miscarry. Who even says that?!

She's also booked me in for a pap smear this thursday. I've had two abnormal results in the past year so she says I have to have one sooner rather than later. Is it even ok to have a smear during pregnancy? I'm really nervous.

I had one with my first at about 7 weeks and was perfectly fine

In pregnancy, they do a low womb smear. Completely safe. I hate nurses like that. So arrogant. How was the job interview?

 

[Junemummy2]

Hello everyone. Well I'm 4 wks tomorrow!! I so wish I wasn't so impatient with testing. I can't stand the wait to know everything is ok & as it should be. I already have 1 daughter who is 2yrs5m. All went fine with her but I just can't stop worrying. I did 2 more tests today just to check! All pos & showing progression.

I really think I'm going to book for an early scan with this one. Can't wait a whole 8 weeks.

So apart from the anxiety, I'm knackered with sore boobs! No MS yet though!! One thing to be glad of.

Hope you are all ok & growing those beans well!!

 

[CottlestonPie]

Thanks girls
I think I will go to the appointment and explain that I'm pg and nervous and hope she's gentle?

The job interview went well thanks! I think it'd suit me but the hours are a bit hit and miss... childcare would be impossible to arrange so even if I'm offered it I'll have to turn it down. Ah well... One less thing to worry about innit!

 

[28329]

Oh no! Sorry to hear that. Ugh, always something comes up when there's something you want!
How is everyones symptoms coming along? Today i've become so super hungry. I'm hungry all the time!!

Wow, that's a terrible experience!! How did she figure you were less than 4 weeks? Chances are you wouldn't even have gotten a positive pregnancy test at the time you booked the appt, so that makes NO sense. She sounds like a fool.

Oh and my sister is a labour/delivery nurse and she says a lot of women get paps while pregnant. I'll have to get one because my last was 2 yrs ago. You'll be fine

Hi Kellya!

Can anyone tell me what goes on at first prenatal visit to the doctor? I'm a bit nervous even if I really like my obgyn she's super nice.

 

[StefNJunk]

Hey everyone! Just got a BFP two days ago. Nervous because MC'd at 5w2d in August. Hoping this one sticks! June 17th here.

Hi Kellya!

Can anyone tell me what goes on at first prenatal visit to the doctor? I'm a bit nervous even if I really like my obgyn she's super nice.

When I went to my first one with my first pregnancy (that ended in mmc). I had to fill out like 20 sheets of medical information. Then we talked alot about options as far as ultrasounds, testing, etc. Then I had a full exam (including pap smear). Then a transvaginal ultrasound. That was about it. I have my first appt Wednesday and had to fill out all the same paperwork. I would like to do my ultrasound first this time being it was bad news last time. Good luck at your first appointment

 

[Mellie1988]

Evening all! So my FIL guessed I was pregnant he asked why I was later for work (I started at 11 instead of 9 because of MW appt) so I said I wasn't late I had drs appt...then he said oh ur nt pregnant aswell are you (SIL is 13 wks peegnant) and started sticking his belly out and rubbing it...I just smirked and looked away, in so rubbish!!! Haha so he was like omg u are!! Sooo cats out of the bag lol, kids funny really that he guessed, I can't keep anything secret!!!

Welcome to yet more new comers sorry your DR was such a cow Cotton I'm 5 weeks 3 days and went to see MW today so ur deff not too early!!

Well I don't even have an appointment yet, my obgyn is more concern about the HSG and ultrasound. I'm going back tomorrow for blood test to make sure my numbers go up and Friday I have an ultrasound to make sure the sac is at th right place. I hope we'll be able to see it. If they don't rush me to the hospital right after my u/s like last time that probably means everything is going well for now.

I'm sorry to hear about your m/c.
Oh one question: my obgyn said she doesn't have to see me right now (it's too early she said) so when should I have a visit with her?

 

[jellybean87]

There's going to a lot of ms here soon. Nausea hit me today. The smell of roast chicken made me gag.

It was scrambled eggs that set me off today!

 

[shobbs]

Yuk scrambled egg made me Ill the other day. Everyone says they get more sense of smell I've got the opposite I can't smell anything just get a horrible taste in my mouth

 

[jellybean87]

Anyone not finding out the gender?

we won't be finding out the gender. Are you?

 

[shellgirl]

Congrats and welcome to the new June baby makers!

Cotton, I can't believe your doctor said that!!! That is so insensitive. I probably would have got up and left right there.

I attached pics of my progression tests and my digi. Beta was 45 on Wednesday, only 12 dpo and 2 days before AF was due. Went back Friday for another and waiting to hear back. Fx'd it went up.

Today is the first day I started really feeling nauseous. I ate a bagel with cream cheese for breakfast and felt like I was going to throw up since then. It's been 5 hours, ugh. Looking at it as a good sign though!

 

[jellybean87]

Hi to all the new joiners.

dd made me laugh today, she said 'I know they cut your belly to get a baby out' I said yes sometimes. The a few mins later she said 'x said they come out of your girly bits too, but they can't because that's too tricky!'

 

[28329]

Aww, look at then bfp's!! Beautiful. I wish i could post my picture but i'm using my phone and mobile site!!
I done some research on how much hcg is needed for 3+ on a digi. You need 2000 or higher for 3+. I got mine today but would've got it 3 days ago. Pretty high for 4 weeks right? Fiance is scaring me with the thought of twins!! We've decided that if we don't get a scan by 8 weeks we'll book a private one for 9 weeks. I'm just hoping this baby is our take home baby.
How's everyone feeling? I am peeing too much. And everything smells and tastes horrible!
