Can anyone else see the stupid smiley face that I can see in my scan pic? Makes me giggle. I can see two eyes, a nose and a smiling mouth

Haha, you mean like the big white lips and black eyes?!?! I see it! It's hilarious and SUPER cute!

Yes that is what I see!!!

 

[Rachel789]

Bex-I see the smiley face Awesome scan pic I am so glad to hear all it well!

Raven/Katya-I hope you both O soon

Dee-The odd cramping sounds like a great sign. Your temp is not down much and an individual temp doesnt mean much anyway. When will you test?

Bethany-I hope the new supplements do the trick for you

I am doing ok, just starting to feel a little nausea the past couple days off and on and I don't have much of an appetite which sucks. I will deal with what I have to though, it will all be worth it!

 

[rmsh1]

Rachel I have only just got my appetite back now, but still got a lot of nausea. I have lost around 5kg, but that is normal, and will come back. No matter what you eat, baby takes whatever it wants from your body stores anyway

 

[Rachel789]

I was trying so hard to eat really healthy and now that I have no appetite healthy food doesnt sound good I just want to make sure I get enough nutrients. Does that become more important in the 2nd tri?

 

[rmsh1]

No not more important, just easier! I found I was able to stomach fruit, even if I didn't really feel like it, and raw carrots! It was food with an odour that put me off the most. Right now you just have to eat whatever you can, andyour body has stores that your baby is just going to help itself to anyway Take a good pre natal

Awww Bex, beautiful scan!

Rachel - I have been sick feeling too but for me it is only in the morning. I've been snacking on crackers and water before I get out of bed and I lay for about 10 - 15 minutes then most of the time I feel better. I'm just not hungry but I make myself eat anyway. It's not easy but I've been getting by. I wouldn't worry too much about the nutrients, our bodies have ways for making up for what we don't get in the first trimester. I read that in What to Expect When You're Expecting.

I had my second beta done today and it was 2,240 which means my HCG is doubling every 45 hours so a little above normal. I have my first prenatal appointment on Thursday! No scan but I'm just excited to hear what my doctor has to say!

 

[seabean]

Caroline - SO HAPPY that your HCG came back so great!!! Must be such a relief

 

[cmwilson]

Dee - You have no idea! I have been pacing, waiting for them to call. Phew!

 

[mrsc81]

Thats great Caroline!!

 

[seabean]

I got excited with all these crazy cramps I've had the past 2 days and tested this AM.
:BFN:

I totally shouldn't have jumped the gun and just waited instead. Oh well. My temp was on the low side again this AM, but I am wondering if its the fact that its all of a sudden in the 40s over night and we still sleep with the fan on. AF should be here on Sat unless it was too early to test and I am still in the running...fingers crossed!

 

[raventtc]

temp drop for me this am too, i guess i am in the waiting game and that is one i don't like at all...damn my body for letting me have some short "normal" cycles and then switch it up. It is cooler here too, and we slept with the window kinda open so this am i didn't want to move cause it was soooo cold...temp in our room said 67 told the hubby no more sleeping like that for us!

love the smiling baby scan picture i can totally see it!!

 

[seabean]

Raven - each month I fear that my body will suddenly stop ovulating and give me another long cycle too. You're only CD16 though, so don't worry yet!


I bet if I had a pic of my dog up instead of Barbie I would have gotten that BFP this morning, dangit!

 

[raventtc]

yeah i know i am not getting down really just thinking it should hurry up...lol

 

[seabean]

Where is everyone? Bethany and Natalie, I hope you two are doing ok! We miss you!

Well I did what you are not supposed to do and looked at my dried hpt when I got home last night. there was a super faint pink line, and it got my hopes up for a minute. My husband didn't see it though, so I think this tww has officially driven me bonkers!

 

[Rachel789]

Dee-Can you take a pic of the HPT and post it? I see your temp went up today, that could be a good sign. I hope that was a real positive!!

Raven-I hope O comes soon for you

I agree Bethany and Nat come back!! Nat I want to know how the femara is working out for you

I have my scan tomorrow morning I am so nervous, I really hope everything is progressing as it should. I have been nauseaus off and on during the day monday and tuesday and then last night I was feeling better and laying in bed when out of nowhere I had to run to the bathroom and I threw up for the first time. So far today I am feeling ok but still don't have much of an appetite. I hope I don't have to throw up anymore, I hate that feeling.

I hope everyone else is doing ok!

 

[cmwilson]

Dee - I think the temp rise is looking good! I can't wait till you test again!

Bethany, Katya, Nat - What's going on with you? I miss you!

Raven - I see you had a drop and an increase in temp! I hope that means you O'd!!

Rachel - Happy 6 Weeks!! I can't wait to hear how your scan goes! I think the nausea is a good sign that things are going well with your little one. Throwing up sucks but at least you can take comfort that it is a good sign for your bean! Good luck tomorrow!!

How are my other pregnant ladies doing?

 

[Rachel789]

How are you feeling Caroline?

 

[cmwilson]

I've been feeling good! I have some nausea on and off but not to the point of throwing up. My boobs are getting more sore on the sides. My main issue has been fatigue. I have moments where I'm just exhausted even though I haven't done anything. I didn't have to work yesterday and I slept until 11am and then took a two hour nap at 2:30! I still don't feel pregnant so that's a bit worrying but I'm sure everything is fine. Looking forward to my appointment tomorrow. I wish I was getting a scan but maybe next week.
