March Monkeys 2016: 21 boys and 15 girls born

[Natasha2605]

Finally found a provider willing to take me on as a patient!!!

She wants to meet me and chat tomorrow and hopefully she will take me so I don't have to be referred out to another specialist.

Part of me is hoping she will try and do an US but the other part of me doesn't want it yet!

Fx fx fx

We've never made it this far before

Thats great, fingers crossed they take you on! One less thing to worry about!

I'm heading off out for lunch with OH and the kiddies. Frankie and Benny's, cannot wait!

Hope everyone has a lovely afternoon.

Whoever it is that updates the first post, can you put my due date as 15/3 please? Since I'm unsure where I am between 4 and 6 weeks I'm setting myself to 5 so I should only be a week out either way Thank you.

Can I join you ladies? I am due March 21st! I got my BFP on Monday. So excited not to have to endure being the most pregnant during the summer months.

So I spoken to the gynae unit again today because my pregnancy test is the same as yesterday still dark.. my hcg injection was 2 weeks ago tomorrow. And I'm CD25 toady. They want me to wait till CD 37 and test again then they will book me in for a scan.. they saying it could still be the injection. Which I think is wrong or it wouldn't be progressing like it is it would be getting fainter. And since my last two cycles with hcg shot all my test have been as white as a sheet.. even the same time now as last month. I tested for 7dpo-14dpo last two cycles and all not even a faint line then af arrived. This time 10,11 and 12 dpo pressing

I miscarried at 5 weeks last time and I cant even find out how to get a beta hcg

In the bottom test is todays PM test at 12dpo just not wrote on it yet.

To the lady who is still getting 1-2 weeks on a clearblue digital....... I only ever got that with my son, even when 8 weeks pregnant. It scared me to death, hence why i have only done 1 digital this pregnancy. I hope your bean is a sticky one xxxxx

 

[Dawnlouise30]

Take it easy, i pray bean sticks for you xxxxx

I think i'm out guys, my cramps are getting worse, getting quite painful now and i feel like i did last time

Ahh! The ms is killing me today. I can't keep anything down Is anyone else having issues with it? Any good tricks? I've been drinking ginger ale and trying to eat a little something every few hours but it's still bad.

So far I haven't been having any issues with that - but I know I probably will once I hit 6 weeks. Hope you feel better!

Thanks! It hit for me just a few days before 6 weeks. It's definitely not fun but it is reassuring that things must be going well. I can't complain too much.

I'm struggling too! The last four days have been bad. I'm reassured but also slightly scared as I had ms with my first until 18 weeks and I really don't want that again!!

They say ginger is good, boiled sweets to suck on, some swear by sickness bands but I found the only thing that relieved it was eating but that only lasted a short time. I hope you find something that makes yours better

 

[struth]

Kittycat and Beeka-thinking of both of you and hoping for sticky beans for you xx

 

[bombshellmom]

I think I'm probably 4 weeks now, or at least a day away from 4 weeks but haven't had much nausea the last 2 days, I get kinda worried but then I remember I only have slight heartburn and nausea during the very beginning when I miss my period. That's how my DD and mc was. Wow just barely 4 weeks.

This pregnancy is going to drag on lol.

Are you going in to get it checked out? ER?
If the pain is bad maybe to reassure you, you can go in and get checked out? Hope everything is alright xoxo

Lots of ladies use lemonade. The acid reacts to the bile and helps (though what works for one doesn't always work for the other) my sister has two kids and swore by it. Worth a shot, right?

Killing time before my appointment and hoping everything goes smoothly!

No real symptoms yet other than dry mouth and gross aftertaste from everything. Boobs are a little sore and still getting little cramps on and off.

I hope I like this OB and that she likes me.

But for now, I've got to kill another 20 minutes so that I can arrive unreasonably early for my 1330 appointment!

Hi everyone!

I had an early scan today (I've got a scan booked at our ivf clinic next Wednesday, but I'm too impatient even for that so we booked a private one today!) and we're having twins! I can't believe it! I'm so relieved that we saw two healthy heartbeats, but twins brings a whole new set of anxieties! Praying that they both stay with us and I'm so glad we only have to wait a week to see them again!!

That's brilliant news! It's funny because I was catching up on this thread this morning and I actually wondered when the twinnies would start rolling in! So exciting!

Anyone else taking belly shots yet? I have mine up on my journal - cannot wait to post them all over FB

Yes! I took a 3 week shot and am overdue for my 4 week shot. Trying to get a weekly belly shot this time because I didn't always get one last pregnancy! It's nice to load them on to the baby bump app too

Aww beankeeper that really does sound bittersweet. My DD comes off the breast a lot sooner and says it's all gone, I'm terrified I'm losing my supply.

As for bump pics - I had a lovely set of bump pics last time but from about 30 weeks I was unlucky enough to start getting stretch marks and by the end my bump was covered. Don't fancy doing them this time now. Can't wait to start seeing everyone's bumps xx

Be proud of your tiger stripes! You earned every last one! And bump pics can be of covered bumps! Mine are!

Aww thanks I'm not really bothered I have them, but I'm not one for exposing them either haha. I will enable up doing covered bump pics but probably a bit further on when noticeable through clothes. Or I might just start now and do black and white!

Congratulations Ostara!

 

[Natasha2605]

Wow. Congratulations Ostara. That is amazing news!!

I did something crazy today. I was in mamas and papas with OH and the girls having a browse and on impulse opened an account and paid towards a swing and moses basket for my little spud. Got to be optimistic eh

 

[CurlyRose]

Oh hello mood swings and over emotional irritability. I just cried at poor oh for, essentially, wanting to sit down and eat his tea while I was in the kitchen washing up. Whoops!
