TMI but does anyone have the trots? lol
Unfortunately!
TMI but does anyone have the trots? lol
Only 3days until my scan but I feel so nervous that when the ultrasound is done, it won't be good news
I have sore boobs, bloat at night time, no bleeding, spotting or cramps BUT I jus cant get excited this time. I am knitting baby hats for the maternity hospital and usually I'm like 'oh this one is cute, maybe I should keep this one just in case' but this week, I am totally different and just can't imagine myself with a baby.
Is anyone feeling like this? Maybe it is self-preservation due to my losses. Hopefully I will see a wee heartbeat (or 2) on Friday and it will help shake this feeling of doom.
I'm the opposite to the trots

This is my recent test but still not many symptoms at all really, you would think with all the hormones would feel something

Phantom I have just read your surrogacy journal and its had me in tears!!!
Especially when you told them you were pregnant
I think what you are doing is a wonderful thing, giving someone the chance and opportunity to have a family of their own, I take my hat off to you, I don't think I could do it as much as would love to.....what a wonderful gift!!!
I've been lurking for the past few days and hoping I could join you.
On Wednesday I got a BFP at 14dpiui. I got my beta done and it came back at 193. Yesterday I got a second beta and it came back at 586.8 so I'm hoping things are good and rolling from now on.
My first ultrasound will be October 22nd (I think I'll be 6 weeks 5 days) and my EDD is June 12th. Could you please add me to the list?
The betas were done at the RE clinic and so will the first ultrasound. I called my OBGYN's office and they have to call me back to schedule the first appointment. I'm in the US but I'm from another country that usually scans at 12 weeks, 20 weeks and then around 32 or 34 weeks. Not sure what the procedure is in the USA. I'm thinking first scan with OBGYN might be at around 8-10 weeks.
As for symptoms, my boobs and nipples are sore, I seem to be getting some twinges down there, dull ache on the right side of pubic bone from time to time, the other day I swear I could smell the cologne that every single passenger in the bus I took downtown was wearing and I think my nipples are starting to darken.
How do I join the facebook group?
My name is Keri I was in the Two Week Wait for quite a few years..I am due in June, June 11th. I have a little story! 08 got a 3 pound cyst........OUCH! Had surgery, doc said I have endo would be almost impossible to conceive on my own..So I charted and charted and charted without ever catching ovulation:~ well we gave up and said whatever! We excepted it...Now its almost 2013.......Hubby is working 13 hours a day the Bding just is not there..So on Sept 12th I walked over to my neighbors and I felt this discharge gush out I was like huh? So I checked I was ovulating after all these years! I told my husband I am ovulating he said oh yea LOL....I said come on lets try 1 more time. Never thought about it really..On Sept 27th I told him in the morning I am either pregnant or I have 1 hell of a bladder infection. So I took him to work then I took a test it was I freaked, ran to the neighbors showed them, 1st I took the plus....both were + then I said okay the blue dyes stink time for first responce.....It was so then I am crying I call the dr run there pee and it is Im in shock, So I got my 1st prenatal appointment on Friday the 5th they did an HCG and all the testing they do, had to wait til friday! Hcg was 607 I was like okay is that good? Thats great they said, average at 4 1/2 weeks is 429..so Im in heaven...So I am 5 weeks now, sore bb's and tired and bloated. Keep getting up to potty and I can't go back to sleep! Think I am in baby shock...LOL Nice to meet ya guys I am in Illinois ladies!
Hi ladies, sadly I think I'm off this thread now. Been bleeding. Had a big cry and now just waiting to see. Fingers crossed but think im back on the TTC page :'(
Been a blast while it lasted.
Healthy 9 months to you guys, and hope to be back on this part if the forum soon x
Hi everyone! Had my 1st appointment today and it didn't go very well! The dr seemed in a big hurry, I was the first appointment and she was an hour and a half late! She didn't ask me any questions or do any blood or urine tests, just did a scan and told me to come back in a month she was arguing with her receptionist all the way through my appointment! I'm defiantly changing hospitals! With my son at the first appointment they did blood tests and urine so I think I will see some1 a bit more thorough. The horrible woman wouldn't even let me see the screen while she did the scan I had to ask the receptionist for a photocopy of the scan picture out my file!
I had a scary experience this afternoon. I called the nurse to get my blood test results - hcg, iron and folate. The blood test was done at 4w1d (4 days ago).
My hcg level was 170. From looking online this looks perfectly normal to me, but the nurse said "Hmmm, I'll have to go and ask the Doctor. It looks a bit low to me."
So she goes to ask the Doctor and calls me back and says "it's a bit early to tell if it's all OK". I was like, "I just want to know if an hcg level of 170 at 4w1d is abnormal?" She said "Oh no, it's not abnormal".
Grrrr - why did she have to freak me the *#@% out by initially telling me that she thought they looked low! I knew from previous research that 170 isn't low (after all, 4w1d was really only the day of my missed period), but she still freaked me out for nothing.
Anyway, I'm having weekly tests now - next one on Thursday morning - to check if the hcg levels are rising. FX!!!!!
Then she said she'd call me back again only if I had abnormal iron or folate levels. Anyway, then 10 minutes later she calls me back!! Luckily it was only to tell me my iron and folate levels were normal. Phew! (They checked iron and folate as I have been anaemic in the past and also had a folate deficiency a few years ago).
This is all scary stuff, feel like I'm on a rollercoaster!
I didn't BD for the whole 9 months with my last pregnancy cause I was so scared!! NO JOKE!!
There are other things that you can do though if you don't want to BD.... LOL
