light hearted ttc

[AC1987]

oh wow you guys! that'll be crazy if some of you are pregnant again!

It was SO weird the last time feeling SO pregnant, that's why I think I may have miscarried

Aside from many medical bills or that I want to plan my trip to Canada next year and I know if I'm pregnant I can't go. So that too stops me from wanting to be.

There have been cycles where I felt "very pregnant" and assumed I was (the nausea and vomitting) but I got so used to them around my cycle that I dont even care anymore and I will know I am pregnant when it is confirmed through testing.

I also hate those evap lines. 2 months ago, I had one and showed dh. We both presumed I was pregnant and called up the ob's office. Af came the next day and when the office called me to schedule, I had to tell them it was false alarm. Kinda embarrassing.

i really need some help here guys. I really think im either pregnant with no hcg or having some sort of crazy hormonal phantom pregnany. I have so many symptoms it feels so real. I even had (tmi) some clumpy clear discharge like iv had before round the mucous plug forming stage. Can hormones really be doing that to me?!
I need to change my diet and lifestyle if i really do end up pregnant. But dont want to do that too much and act like i am if im not! My body is thoroughly convinced im pregnant im so frustrated!

 

[hello_kitty]

Jo - IMO, I honestly dont think its possible to be pregnant without hcg, scientifically anyways. The hcg is an indicator that the fetus is developing, thats why it drops to 0 when you are either no pregnant or miscarried. I think its your body messing with you. Did you have another period since or will it be coming up soon?

afm, I am 5 days away from af and getting backaches. I've had backaches before though around af time so not too convinced that its a pregnancy symptom. Its weird because pregnancy and af symptoms are so similar.

Jo have you taken anymore tests? Maybe go to the gp if it continues!!

 

[hello_kitty]

I went to the doctor today because I had sharp pain in my pelvic region last night (so bad that I rolled over from it). Went in this morning and they did a urine test to see if I had a UTI, which I didnt. They also did a urine pregnancy test, which also came out negative. Finally, I had a blood test done for hcg. Will probably get the result tomorrow. If its negative, I think its not likely that I Am pregnant.

Jo, it could just be crazy hormones!!

I think with me the last time my body was convinced I was pregnant so it was going through the motion like so much that I started thinking that maybe I was so I'm pretty sure for it to be that crazy then maybe I had a miscarriage.. but since I never tested there is no way to tell for sure.

This month I've kept dh far from me as I'm so paranoid

I started thinking about how it would be to add in another kid... but right now its like I think of Rose as such a baby.. I don't know how I'd feel about having a baby right now. I think it'd be really hard on her too since she is used to being the baby. She hasn't even seen any babies younger than her!

 

[ricschick]

Kitty did you get your blood results?

 

[hello_kitty]

Yea they called me today and said both came out negative but that I should test again if my period is late. My period is due on the 10th so 3 more days. I dont really feel pregnant though. Its actually more of a relief. For the past few days I have been thinking about all the adjustments and postpones we would have to make if I am indeed pregnant. That would mean saving up money to upgrade to a bigger car and cancelling our planned trip for next year. I am glad I dont have to make any changes now.

TBH though, I love babies but somehow I dont feel in a rush to be pregnant any time soon. It just feels like for the past 2.5 years I have experienced "baby overload" makes me kind of weary of adding on another. The feeling of dealing with a newborn ALL OVER AGAIN exhausts me...guess I need to be extra careful so I can get that extended break after all...does this make me weird that I am getting tired of babies?

 

[josephine3]

nope i wanted to be done for a few years but it seems like my body has other ideas. I still feel so pregnant this cant be fake i swear i can feel it all, lump in my belly , flutters, sensitive to smells, literally gagging at things which i never do usually i have a pretty strong stomach. Im desperate to get an u/s i hope i can persuade the doc to book me one! Its hard to get the treatment u need on the nhs!

 

[ricschick]

Have you tested anymore jo?

Glad you got the resul you wanted kitty(whats your real name?) x

We're NTNP leving it upto fate! Lol

 

[hello_kitty]

Claire - my name is lily

Jo - are you still getting your periods? If not, maybe you can use that to persuade them into giving you an us? Or just tell them you think youre pregnant and feeling flutters.

 

[hello_kitty]

my period is due tomorrow based on last month's cycle. Doctor said I am not "safe" until af shows up because I might not have implanted yet when the tests were done. I think I will wait til cd 40 to test again (which is the longest I have ever went without af) if iI dont get my period tomorrow.

 

[josephine3]

just got back from docs she felt my abdomen and said everything felt fine, she rubbed all over the 'ball' type area and said it was my small intestine but she couldnt feel anything wrong. Said she can book me a scan but wont be for 4-6 weeks. I will def be showing by then. Im already struggling to hide it to be honest im worried what i will say when omeone asks!

 

[ricschick]

this is so strange jo isn't it!! have you done anymore tests? did you struggle to get a bfp with the other 2? it could possibly be a cyst maybe?? x

 

[AC1987]

My period is SO weird today! OK it was due today.. but came on Saturday.

Anyways it was almost gone this morning.. well it was light.
I went for a walk with the kids, but half way through the walk I start cramping.. which is unusual for me.
I come home and pass this clot! Like the size of my thumb, followed by red bleeding.. So it makes me think either a miscarriage or something is wrong. Like maybe I over-did it. I can't think of how a walk could justify it though. I'm passing tiny clots now.. which is normal.
But the big one has me freaked out!

 

[mzswizz]

hello ladies! how has everyone been?

 

[ricschick]

Ac I'd go to the docs just to put your mind at rest!!

 

[josephine3]

god dammit why is it deleting my posts arrrhhhhghh!!!
Patrice its great to hear from u! Are u still ttc? Hows life?
So i went back to the docs. She felt my belly and said she couldnt feel anything wrong and that its very unlikely im pregnant which i knew anyway. But she booked me and ultrasound but not for 4-6 weeks as its not an emergency im still worried incase there is some sort of retained product messing me up. I seriously will be showing in that long im starting to struggle to hide it now im dreading incase someone asks me. This is seriously messing with my head. Im not sure when id be due on again, but at the latest would be the 18th if the strange bleed was actually a period. Its so weird. I feel almost a knot in my stomach to the left. She ran her hands all over it and seemed to be poking it when she asked 'this is what u are feeling here?' i said yes can u feel anything there? 'no.' she said! Argh. Frustrated.
Strange af ashley? Do u normally get clots? I get quite a lot usually...hope everyone else is good x

jo-hopefully they figure out what is going on with you and hoping that it is nothing serious. As a matter of fact, i am divorced now and I am in a new relationship. Also, currently I am not ttc because.....i am already pregnant Tomorrow I will be 6 weeks and I fell ill so I got an ultrasound to find 2 yes TWO sacs. So not only am I pregnant but its with twins Exciting but scared at the same time.
