Just wondering... is it normal not to have an appointment until 8 weeks? I called my OBGYN and told them I got a positive pregnancy test. I was hoping I'd get a blood to confirm it but nope, just an appointment for a month from now. Is this normal?

My OB won't see me until 10 weeks! October 10 is my fist appointment. I think I will go crazy until then thinking that every cramp and twinge is a bad sign... I did however go in for a blood test yesterday, it was positive too so I was excited. My OB didn't even see me, I just went to the lab, they took my blood, and then called later with the results... Maybe you should ask for that?

This thread is definitely moving fast!!! Welcome to all the new BFPs! This is exciting!!!

AFM- I had quite the scare this morning! My BBT dropped .1 degree away from the cover line. My AF is due tomorrow I am 13DPO today (except she is not supposed to come cause of the BFP) and I had stronger cramps this morning. I completely freaked out! I took another HPT, still pregnant but the line is not much darker than Sunday... I looked it up online and apparently temperature fluctuations during pregnancy are normal? I am a little less worried now but still worried... Has anyone else had this happen or do you just stop temping after the BFP???

Phew - I was away for a long weekend and we're already up to 38 pages! Welcome to all of the new May mums.

I am still not having symptoms aside from a little bloating (ok, I look about 3 months gone, even though babe is the size of a poppy seed - what's up with that?), so I took another test. Test line was darker than the control line - woohoo!

On the job front - you'll remember I lost my job on Wednesday, had my birthday on Thursday - then on Friday was offered a different job! It was a hectic, but exciting week!

I stopped temping after BFP! But when I was at my docs office last Thursday my temp was 100.7. So idk if that is normal or what since my normal temp is 97.6. They didn't seem concerned about it at all.

I cramped & felt like I was going to start my AF all the way through until about 3 days after it was due. Then the cramping became little quick, sharp twinges here & there.

Best of Luck and here's to a healthy & happy pregnancy!!!

Hey Miss!

Im feeling fine thanks Had a crazy few days of really horrible and strong ovulation type cramps but they seem to have eased up now! I do feel more tired than normal though so I am with you on the whacked!

Im so nervous...I desperately want to do a cb digi to see if my 1-2 has changed to 2-3 but I am way too scared to do one just incase it hasnt

Should I bite the bullet? x

I think you should I done a digi at 3+6 or 4 weeks and I got 2-3 I'm going to do another digi on Friday to see if it's changed to 3+ if so I'll be panicking it may be twins x

I've had the cramps but they went a little yesterday and today and now I'm worrying about why they aren't there! My DH also informs me that my hormones have kicked in!! How dare he?! Isn't a girl allowed to cry daily for the last few days over nothing in particular?!?!

Haha think ive had those hormones for years let alone in pregnancy!!

My cramps went too I was reading that in the 4-5wk timeframe there is still burrowing going on in terms of laying the roots for placentas so thats probably why we have been getting the pains. Im sure there are plenty more aches and pains just around the corner for us to panic on xxx

Congrats & Welcome to all the new BFPs!! This is so exciting!!!

Happy 5wks! x

With my first bfp my temps were like the snowy peaks its very normal. Tbh, I wouldnt worry about temping now. The body temp does tend to fluctuate and its just going to be one of a list of things youll end up worrying about on a daily basis but dont really need too Youre preggo! AF is not gunna come! x

I was just about to go buy one but then stopped myself Doc wil have my first set of beta results in tomorrow so id be just wasting cashies! Hopefully ill get a nice beta level tomorrow and pretend its my 2-3 xx

 

[JustFluffy]

Thanks ladies, I feel lots better about the drop in temp this AM. I am officially no longer temping! My overly analytical self has more important things to over analyze

 

[BeccaMichelle]

I have a question for everyone: I have hypothyroidism so do you think I should see a high risk ob? Some people have been recommending it and I wanted to know what you all think

when I was in the UK the only difference was that I occasionally came in to see the Consultant rather than just a midwife. when I mentioned to my OB that we were trying he promptly sent me across the office for a blood test to check the levels. I'm sure they plan on doing it throughout the pregnancy. As long as your normal OB knows about it and it treating it proactively then I don't see why you would need a different doctor. I'm only on 75mg and they never had to increase it last time.

 

[aknqtpie]

As soon as I got my BFP, I stopped temping.. I knew I would start freaking out.

I have been cramping a little today, and am nervous as well since AF would of been due on Thursday/Friday.. so I keep checking lol.

Hi Ladies! Wow this thread has been busy today. Lovely to see a lot of new Mummies to be:wave:

Congratulations SarahUk, Justfluffy, LauraAvasMum, M3LL, Hopeful H, BellaRosa, Catattat, Katrina18 & Lpjkp! Sorry if i missed anyone theres so many of us, if we are only up to May 12th -imagine how busy it will be in two weeks time!

Lpjkp - yeah don't worry about no nausea now, mine didnt start til 5-6 weeks first time and 6-7 weeks second time and some of my friends had none at all.

Poppy13 - Yeah hormones definately kicking in here too, my poor hubbie i'm getting irritable so quickly

Foxycleopatra- how did your hcg blood results go?


Poor Babee-bugs! Hope you feel better and get some rest- also hope you are supervising, more than building young lady!!

Hope everyone has had a good day. I was ok at work until 3pm and then I lost the will to live, just needed to go to bed so badly and kept making mistakes my memory has been so bad this past week. Xxx

Hello ladies! Please add me to May 8. I've had three BFP's over the last three days. Still having cramping but I think that's due to it burrowing in, or at least I hope.
I went to see my obgyn 6 days ago (I only met her once before as I moved after getting married) and asked the nurse to give me a test just in case, and when the ob arrived she went berserk on me for asking and said there was no way I could get a positive before September 8. Ha! Showed her! Now I know I need to go find a new obgyn fast. One who won't act like a jerk to a first time ttc like me. When you call and say you have had a bfp, do they all make you wait til 12 weeks? I feel bad that will be my first time meeting my new doc.
Congrats to all!

I think the 12 weeks depends on your doctor & your situation. My first ultrasound is scheduled for September 13th which will put me at 7weeks. But I have used the same obgyn for 6 years & I'm considered somewhat high risk due to age and past female issues. I say ask around the area to see who people like. Then I would call and ask to speak with the doctor. Remember, they work for you not the other way around & if you aren't completely happy & comfortable with them then I wouldn't be trusting them with the safety of my baby or myself.

Best of Luck & wishing you a happy & healthy pregnancy!

lol my dh has been calling me various insulting names over the past few days " according to him my crazy hormones are already kicking in ! " and omg another 8 months of this ! " poor him ... not lol

 

[maybesoon]

oh yea!!! I'm right there with y'all.... My DH is trying to blame the hormonal crap on me right now too. I'm sorry but I don't think I've been hormonal at all & none of my friends/co-workers or family say that I have. I think he's just being a little shi*!!! But guys are oblivious to what's going on around them... God love them!

 

[jtink28]

i think maybe i got a good DH then, because that man pampers me to death, and never says a negative word. We've been together for over 4 years, and he's never lost his temper with me. And goodness, I can lose my cool with the best of them
He has given me foot rubs anytime I asked, and said that even though I'm acting a little crazy, he thinks it's adorable.
i love that man for lying!!!!! Haha!

 

[Sass827]

My DH is claiming it way too early for me to be feeling anything, but I'm waking up in the morning ravenous, and if I don't get food soon, I get very snippy. If I don't get food within an hour or two, I totally lose it. anyone else feeling like that?
