Congrats Flaneuse so did you just see the sac that early? Got my scan on august 1st at 7 weeks... cant wait!

NJAngelAPN - Cant wiat for update on your appointment. do you think they will do a scan?

WudLuvabub - other ladies have complained of feeling ill on them too, and have tried other brands. But if vitimins in general make you ill i would say stop taking them. Then instead, eat real healthily and be aware of what veg gives you which vitimins. Also just take a folic acid pill a day - as thats the main one. If you cant even take them without being really ill then leafy greens contain lots of folic also try a glass of milk a day so you get your calcium.

*WELCOME TO ANY NEWBIES - IM ADDING YOU TO THE LIST!*

As for me.... just got my 3+ on my CB Digi!! its gone up a level every wednesday .. that was the last test now ive seen 3+ though. i WAS SOOOO WORRIED that it would have gone bk to 1-2 or something. YAY! thats a good sign right??

I had a bout f neausea yesterday - thought i wasnt actually sick. wonder if this is the start of MS or was just a random episode? I also had it twice the day before.... mmm....

I got my 3+ today too! It is a good feeling isn't it?! Mine came up in seconds - I was quite surprised as the other ones had taken a few minutes. I had left it a few days as I wanted to be sure to get it. I was so nervous about falling back to 1-2! That is it for me too - I just had to get a 3+ and now I am not doing any more testing.

I'm started to getting nausea too - not bad but just lurking. It has been constant all day - I hope that it doesn't get any worse!

Sorry for the tripple post!

I've had such a crap nights sleep. I actually got up in the middle of the night and shouted at the dog because I dreamed she had done something bad (god knows what!). Result - me feeling really tired today, and the dogs ignoring me. Marvelous!

I've got a 10 hour shift today 1-11, and I'm so tired. Also worried about the stress of my job not being good for me. Things are winding me up at the moment that usually wouldn't. Damn hormones!

Hope you have a better nights sleep tonight

Hi Ladies,
Today I'm having a nagging dull ache in my tummy.. Hoping this is normal.. Has anyone else had this problem and everything was ok?

me! i was having cramps that felt like AF cramps but also a more dull pain that eventually led me to the bathroom. i think there's just so much going on down there, plus it messes up the digestive tract, that i've read a lot of ladies feel pain. as long as you're not bleeding you shouldn't be worried!

I have felt the same for the past 2 days - just like BLAH in my tummy - I want to eat but I just don't feel right - but I know I need too

I have been having trouble sleeping as well - I can't fall asleep but my body is so tired and then when I do fall asleep I am waking up way before the alarm!

 

[Meerkat13]

I know pooch and blessingbaby3 have had aches but anyone else?

Also ladies for how long? I found out I was pregnant the day my period was due (last Friday) and ever since I've had a dull ache... Almost constant I woke up this morning and no ache but it came on again mid morning.

I've no other symptoms just the constant ache, anyone else? I'm petrified I've already lost bean.

I've no appointment with midwife yet, left a message but lady said I was very early dats and would call me back in a while for first appointment

I'm off on holiday (Cyprus) at the weekend, and I'm more stressed by the whole thing than excited.... Can anyone assure me these aches (like a heavy belly as well) are normal?

Someone say I'm normal
Xx

 

[Flaneuse]

Meerkat try not to worry about the aches--I had Af like cramps for 4 days and still get them off and on. It's normal!

Thanks!!!

I can't ask any friends/family etc as I'm not telling anyone till scan.

Nobody had mention period like pains/aches longterm....starting to think just me....was convinced start of m/c

You have put my mind at rest a little....since finding out I'm a total worry wart which isn't like me.....roll on m/s and sore boobs!!

 

[BlessingBaby3]

Pooch- OMG!! That's me all the way!!! I use to be able to sleep in and now no matter what time I go to sleep, late or not I wake up at the crack of dawn!!!
Meerkat13- Try not to think negative!! Mine has faded but it comes back every now and again. Like pooch says as long as we don't see any blood with it we should be ok!!

 

[Joannaxoxo]

Its nice to read this forum and see that my symptoms are like most of yours... helps to reassure me. I've also like most of you not had many symptoms, which was starting to make me worry but it is still early days. Like most of you I've basically had frequent urianation and sore breasts... no ms except some waves of nausea once in awhile. I'm glad I found you girls!!

meerkat - stop worrying about the aches darling. They are perfectly normal. They have been my strongest symptom - and at one point, my only one!

ive added the newbies - welcome!! x

 

[Flaneuse]

I am already driving myself crazy with wanting to clean and re arrange some of the furniture!! Today I am steam cleaning the carpet with water/vinegar and once DH gets home I want him to help me move some bookshelves. I did this last time too! Lol.

Hi girls,

So had my first appt, which was really nothing. Discussed do's and don'ts, as well as what we think the due date is. Since I was a Clomid girl, and we only did one cycle, my gyn is wondering if this isn't really a late bfp from the LAST cycle. I had my LMP May 7th, did five days of Clomid, IUI, beta 15 days post-IUI was negative. A week later (so three weeks after IUI), had a crap period (one and a half days of brown discharge), went in for labs on CD 3, and my estrogen levels were too high. Went in again on CD5, the estrogen levels were CLIMBING, so they told me I had to take a month off, no Clomid, no IUI. So last month was the do nothing month. The only reason I took an HPT was because my period was about six days late, and I was planning on calling the MDs office to ask them WHY my cycle was still messed up.
My gyn thinks it's odd, just because with Clomid, you usually have very HEAVY periods, not nearly non-existant ones. Plus, it would explain the rising estrogen. They never repeated the beta, and I just took them at their word, and never did an HPT. Who knows?
She is sending me for an ultrasound first thing in the AM - apparently she doesn't have a technician in office. I will know more tomorrow! She says that you will usually see the HB at a beta of 25,000. Since my beta was >3000 one week ago, it should be up in the 20k+ range. Here's hoping!!

How exciting!

I also had my first appointment today. Was nothing much really. Checked my blood pressure, got me to do a carbon dioxide breathalizer thingy, took my medical history and OH's, details of previous pregnancies etc. Gave me my pregnancy record book, couple of magazines and some booklets on maternity services in Sheffield.
Have my next appointment on 8th August, at home to complete rest of my paperwork.

Also got my 2-3 on cb digi!!! Yay! Such a relief as we didnt get that progression last time.

Hope you're all having a great day xxx

Wow NJAngelAPN, I hope things go well for you tomorrow!

Question for you all, is anyone else feeling like they can turn into the devil at the slightest thing? We got a puppy a few weeks ago and the poor thing just got the full force of my rage when she peed on the floor! I realize that it really wasnt her fault, but I just couldn't control my anger!... I kicked her outside and listened to her cry/bark for 15 minutes while I calmed down lol. It is just me?

Joannaxoxo - THANK YOU for posting this! I felt like a raging lunatic today - the past couple of days actually. I just get ENRAGED like the Amazing Hulk. Thankfully I have a close friend who's only a bit ahead of me and she keeps me sane when I vent to her and she commiserates she felt the same.

I told my husband this morning that I have to work on being nicer and more patient with the tourists! (They're everywhere where I work and are always very slow on Metro, taking up the entire sidewalk, etc. - but they're on a vacation!

The other thing is my head is REAL foggy - like I am missing things I don't usually overlook. This has me frustrated the most. Hoping it improves as I adjust to raging hormones.

Just found out I'm pregnant today! (Due date March 22nd)

My biggest symptoms so far have been Af-type cramps, serious gassyness, and surprisingly, not being able to type without botching every other word and stumbling a lot while reading outloud. If this is the onset of "Pregnancy brain" then it looks like I'm in serious trouble!
