Hope the puppy dog is ok missy!

 

[24/7]

Lots of bad cramping here for the last 24 hours, scan booked for thursday morning. xx

 

[lisaf]

24/7 ... what kind of cramping? period-like cramps? pulling? Any spotting? Hope its ok... cramping is very common in early pregnancy, but it can be a sign of something so its good that you're getting checked out. Keep us posted!

 

[24/7]

It's period like pains, very low down, no bleeding which is keeping me positive for now. Have got some antibiotics too as have been peeing lots, but no sign of infection?! I just want my beanie safe and sound. xx

 

[lisaf]

hang in there.... if the cramps are intense, I understand the worry... but period-like cramping is pretty normal for most women... my friend was whining about her period needing to just COME already before she got her BFP (she was only testing weekly). I had it pretty constantly since implantation and its started to taper off a bit or come and go.

Hopefully I'll be like this too, it's just so hard not to worry, we love these little babies so much already. xxx

 

[lisaf]

Oh yes, the worry is something I live with daily!!! Lol..... dont' expect it to ever fully go away, I just try not to let it consume me.

There are several threads in the First Trimester boards about cramping that are very reassuring to read through!

 

[chuck]

Hope the cramps end up being just one of those things....I hate those 'one of those things' things they are so worrisome!

 

[24/7]

Thanks chuck, am trying to stay positive, just so difficult. xxx

 

[chuck]

First tri is just so trying isnt it?

I remember first time constantly checking my knickers worrying about every twitch.

I only got my BFP yesterday so it hasnt really set in yet. It will though I know ti.

 

[24/7]

It really is, and I told myself I would stay relaxed, and that lasted all of two minutes!! I'm just so scared its all over, just as we fell in love. xx

Just to confuse you girls I have had my username changed (was ttcArmyBrat) as that pre-dated my daughter!!

So hi again from the all new improved KimE

lisaf - hope your puppy is ok hun

24/7 - I had period type cramps with my daughter and spotting from dpo11 to dpo18 so cramping can be a good sign of implantation I was worried though and am again with this one, it's so hard not "knowing" everything is going to be ok I know

Does anyone know if you can get a BFP before implantation just cos I did bleed with my daughter and haven't this time - am worried I have not implanted (BFP at 10dpo)

Gotta go feed Pops now - she's climbing up me lookin for food

 

[new_to_ttc]

Kim you wont get a BFP before implantation as the body wont be producing any hCG to detect! Every pregnancy is different, I never had an implantation bleed with this one.

24/7 hope everything is ok hun cramping is very normal, I hope Thursday will put your mind at rest

mummy how was the scan??? Chaos have you had your results? Cant wait for you ladies to post and update us!

Lisa hope your puppy is ok hun! Hows the sickness by now? Hope you're feeling better!! I tried banana today instead of grapes, seemed a bit urgh at first but worked So yay.. snacking on fruit, reducing my calorie count in my meals to compensate and hopefully I will start to lose weight again now Im eating more regulary through the day!!

Nope, you need to have had implantation to get a BFP as its hormones from the placenta that gives it.
I didn't have a single drop of blood with Button either

24/7 Cramping is completely normal, I remember the cramps the first couple of weeks with my first, they were that bad! They lessen with subsequent babies though.

My scan went really well seems I ovulated late, baby measured 7+1 so due 2nd may now! OB is putting me on weekly progesterone injections from 16 weeks to try and stop preterm birth, anyone heard of this?

Hi Kim

 

[new_to_ttc]

so happy for you mummy!!! 1 day isnt a big change hehe I wish they gave me a more accurate date at my scan, everything was soooo vague because they were just looking for the medical stuff lol Did you get a pic of your little bean???

 

[lisaf]

mummy - I've only heard of progesterone during the first tri... but then again, I only know what I've learned from trying to get pregnant with low progesterone, lol.
Glad you had a good scan.

Chaos - and word on the numbers?

24/7 and KimE - cramping is also your uterus making room and expanding to accomodate the baby, so its not just implantation-related ... having some medium-strength period type cramps as we speak! Lol... Also... I noticed I had a ton of gas almost right away and that was very crampy! So the cramping sometimes comes from your intestines slowing/changing too as they adjust. In fact, I felt 'sick' whenever it was gas/constipation cramping.... uterine cramping was just cramps, no sick feeling. Hope that helps?

AFM - no news yet on puppy... the vet examined him but he's being stubborn about providing a urine sample apparently so they're going to keep trying for that. He's just super anxious, not pooping right, this morning was whimpering and even yelping, dropping his butt to the ground every few steps, tail dropped (and for a Bichon, a dropped tail is definitely deliberate, lol!!!)

new, I got a pic, just waiting for hubby to come home and put it up for me, baby looks just like a jelly bean in it I expected a bit of a date change, but my last af was 23rd july so must have ovd really late

Lisa im really sorry about your puppy We have a 61/2 month old french bulldog and she was ill recently, she keeps stealing things then getting sick Maybe your puppy has some sort of parasite, our friends spaniel puppy recently had something called coccidia, made for a very sad puppy! Has the vet said anything yet?

Also anyone else having a nuchal scan? Or seeing a perinatologist? I have an appointment there soon and wondered what they will do, last time I saw one at the end but that was only for a better ultrasound

 

[lisaf]

Thanks mummy - vet thinks its psychological at this point... I don't know what to think about that or what to do.... he won't go on the lawn ever since we re-seeded (the seed had a fertilizer).. I was so happy about that because I figure he won't be killing our attempt to grow the lawn. Instead he pees and poops in the spider plants, which cracks me up because I hate them and want them gone.. but maybe something in those plants is biting him?
I mean we go to let him outside and he won't come out even though he was ringing the bells etc... if you got a bite on the bum every time you went poo, you'd be showing anxiety signs, right? lol... If that is the case though, that means we have to walk him EVERY time he has to poo... and this boy poos several times a day.. morning, noon, evening, sometimes late afternoon... I know it would be good for me, but just isn't convenient when I'm already running late for work because I had to stop and puke.
Oh.. and picking his poo on walks makes me puke too... *sigh*
