[Twinminator]

It's taken me aaaages to catch up tonight (DH home today and has been a proper laptop-hogger!!, so had a whole day's worth to read)

Nothing much to report from Twinminator World; I am becoming more aware that I'm being moody... erm, well, swinging from elated to sad to bleeping angry... but other than that all's as well as can be expected (for those who know a bit about me!).

However, I go to bed this evening hoping and praying that I don't wake to more news of beanies who have drifted away. And I am crossing everything for Pinky cat, that her beloved bean is just giving her a little scare and nothing more xxxx

Preeeetty impressive Sara!!!! Ha ha!

I dont think I have very many symptoms yet. But I am still dealing with this strep, so I cant tell if they are symptoms from that or the bean. I know I have serious gag reflex, which doesnt help when taking my antibiotics. So sorry for those who have had a loss, I have been there and know how heartbreaking it is. I am pretty sure I am due March 22, but this could change once I go to the doc. They dont want me to come in until 10wks? Is this normal? It seemed kind of late to me.

My OB doesn't see me till 10 weeks. I do get a 6 week nurse ed appointment where they discuss what tests there are, foods to avoid, appointments throughout the pregnancy etc....but yeah, no real appointment till 10 weeks. All my good friends have had the same. It does seem late to me too! But that's cuz we are anxious

 

[braijackava]

Yeah I guess I am just anxious. Last time I miscarried it happened during that window before the first appt. It was a blighted ovum though, so not something that is likely to happen again. Just anxious!

 

[Embo78]

Yay! My boobs have started hurting!! Never thought I'd be so happy to have swollen, painful breasts !!!!

me too!

 

[Embo78]

High five to sore boobies membas !!
Have you any other symptoms? I'm tired all the time, badly constipated and gassy (tmi) and really weepy. Keep crying at the silliest things!!

 

[braijackava]

My boobs have been sore since about 5dpo, so I am at the point where I want it to stop!!! Lol

 

[Reebo]

to honey.

Fingers crossed for pinky - I hope everything turns out okay!

I think doctors in the US schedule the first appointment for later than those in Europe. Mine isn't until mid-August, when I'll be 9-10 weeks. I asked if I needed to come in earlier to get a blood test to prove I'm pregnant and the nurse laughed and was like, "if the test says you're pregnant, you're pregnant." Ok, I'll take her word for it!

I can't figure out if I'm super tired b/c of the pregnancy or b/c I didn't have coffee this morning. Normally I need a full cup to function normally but today it just didn't taste right so I didn't drink much.

I have mood swings, my nipples are larger/redder/sore, and sometimes my stomach gives me an attitude, but nothing major. I also have AF like cramps and some ovary twinges. Last night had a couple bad cramps but they passed quickly. Oh and I am very tired sometimes!

 

[msarkozi]

so I got a call today and I have to see the gyno on the 29th. I'm a little nervous, as I don't know what to expect at this appointment. My doctor sent them a letter yesterday stating my mom's history, as well as mine, and they would like me to come in and see them.

My mom had to be stitched up at 3 months in her first pregnancy, and then 5 months in her second one. Not sure if I am going to have the same fate or not, but I am glad to know they are taking precautions with me.

 

[Embo78]

Don't worry about the AF pains membas. Or try not to. I can't really talk cos I've been a bit of a nervous wreck. Apparently they're really common.

So glad your doc is taking extra care of you and bubs mel. It must put your mind at ease (slightly!)

Well I got up really early again cos it's a week since I got my BFP so I wanted to do a digi. I prepared myself for it being 1-2 cos I've heard so much stuff about them and this is what I got .................

 

[Tanikit]

Msarkozi its great that they are being proactive and taking precautions.

My next appointment is only on 25 August which seems forever away. I'll be 13 weeks by then and it will be the nuchal fold scan. Of course I still have to book appointments with the endo and I need to see a dentist so I'll still be running around like crazy.

Now the whole family is sick and I must take DD back to the doctor today as its been 5 days and she's not improving despite all the medication. DH is insisting he's going to work this morning, but he should have been up an hour ago and I am not going to tell him as he needs to stay home. As for me, I could at least keep some soup down last night, so maybe I am starting to get better. As I start to feel better I start worrying more about my little one inside me.

Embo wohoo for 2-3!

 

[Embo78]

So glad you're keeping something down Bronwyn (love your name btw) If you can get some strength I'm sure you could cope better with everything. I really do feel for you. I hope DD gets better soon. Is she managing to drink at all? Think your OH should defo be home helping!!
