I bet tums would be really good for getting extra calcium. My regular dr told me to take them to help battle pms a few years ago.

My boobs are KILLING ME today!!! I have been having some slight cramping..but nothing major. I also have some pain on the inside of my thighs..weird..could be totally unrelated!?! I think the worst so far is the crappy taste in my mouth. I remember it so well from when I had Rian. I have been chewing gum non stop today!

Ladies! I've just had my hcg results back and at 5wks 1day (21dpo) I'm 2,542! Does this sound good?

 

[TonyaG]

Those numbers sound great!
I just left me office for a minute to use the washroom and missed the nurses call!! What luck I have. Anyways she left a message that my levels are rising nicely and I'm booked in for my 6 week ultrasound next.

Ok scrap that she called back and said my beta level was 1930 up from 69 last Friday!
She said to monitor the spotting and of it gets worse to either go their for an u/s or to the ER if it is after hours. But she said it's normal to have spotting.

 

[luluamcr]

Phew! With my m/c at 7wks my level was only 21 so I was hoping for hundreds this time! Super chuffed! Still got 10 days to wait for my scan.... tick tock!! Exactly how slow does time have to move??

I had quite a bit of spotting with my second so don't worry too much! I am still at the stage when I'm scared to wipe!

Hi ladies.

Can I tentatively join in?

Got a faint BFP 2 days ago and they've gotten darker each day since.

Hard to know exactly when I O'd I'm either 3+5, 3+6 or 4weeks so I think I'll take the midpoint.

I've worked out my EDD as May 10th.

I don't have a lmp as I M/C last month at 9 weeks.

It's all very scary now but I'm very hopeful and think I'll be brave enough to get a ticker and a pretty May 2013 banner soon.

Wishing all of you the very best of luck and a wonderful, happy and healthy 9 months ahead.

We can do it ladies!!!!

I hate waiting too, it is so annoying! I'm glad we don't work with midwives here in Canada (very little)

Urgh. What a pain.

I'm scared to see a doctor/mw. I know they'll give me the doom and gloom talk.

So maybe it's a good thing she didnt call in a way.

Hope your worries get settled soon babes. Xx

grrr that is so frustrating!!! I hate that especially as it's friday, make sure you ring back on Monday until you get a response.

well it's been a whole 8 days since i officially got a clear bfp and Dh and I have managed to keep it quiet all this time I'm quite impressed! It does make the time go slow though trying to keep the secret.

Hope all you ladies are good, i've just eaten far too much and now i've got an achy tummy so going to chill out. Hubby is working all weekend so nothing too exciting planned. xxxxxxxxxx

welcome to the new ladies ive added you to the front page

Anyone else addicted to buying HPTs!

In the last 4 days I've bought 2 packs of sainsburys own, a pack or FRERs and was just in morrisons so thought it'd be rude not to give their own brand a go.

Worst thing is I'm going to have to walk past a savers, poundland, boots and Superdrug tomorrow and I know I can't take all that temptation without cracking. Also probably going into ASDA as well.

I like to compare the same brands but also like to give each test at least 2 days for HCG to build. So I figure I can do one a day of different brands. Lol.

Of course I have a bazillion ICs so I do one of those every day too. Ooops!

DH has managed to hold his tongue so far!!

[Babee_Bugs]

cupcake in about a week i managed to use 29 ics and 4 digitals hahahah

My OH was like, cant you just use the one test??? surely the one positive test should basically tell you, your pregnant???

Hmmm right, but we wont tell him that though

 

[CupcakeBaby]

29 ICs!?! Awesome!!

I'm OK at limiting myself to just one IC and one other test per morning. But it is hard for me to not do one first thing!

I figure why not, it's not hurting anyone and it's exciting.

 

[luluamcr]

Asda would be a no go if I was practising restraint! Each time I'm in I buy a FRER double pack cos they're on offer at £6!! Two packs was ok cos can sometimes spend that on one but now it's getting to point of ridiculousness!! Bedside cabinet is near full....

Oh no!! I will definitely be in ASDA tomorrow then!

Just try and take it easy and eat lots of healthy food. Should HIV you some natural energy.

The fatigue shouldn't last too long. And just remember why you have it. for the best reason in the world.
