So tired and can't sleep. I will NOT miss this insomnia

 

[Heatherlt]

I have some insomnia too, Teacup!! It's now midnight and I'm still awake. Around 5 I couldn't keep my eyes open, and now I'm not really tired. So frustrating, especially because I know my kids will be up before 8 and I'll still be tired. I hope you get some sleep soon.

Angel, welcome!

I'm having insomnia too I have to get up to pee every night then takes me ages to fall back to sleep.

 

[teacup22]

Well did another digi this morning and got 1-2 so I'm now thinking in going to miscarry again
I really can't do this again!

 

[Storked]

Teacup, oh no

 

[Storked]

Every day I am just so grateful to be pregnant again

 

[Tasha]

Teacup, I said else where but FMU is not reliable for me.

 

[teacup22]

Thanks I'm not worried anymore. Think it was a dodgy test it looks all wrong inside. The lines don't look like they took on the dye right.
Silly thing!
Anyone else majorly constipated? I'm not even taking iron either!

 

[Storked]

Opposite of constipation here! But, I drink watered down 100% juice all day so I am sure that is why

 

[Heatherlt]

Well, I didn't take my own advice and I tested last night and this morning with FRER. I don't like what I'm seeing, and now I'm more worried than ever.

Here's all of the FRER I've taken. The line is darkest at 15dpo, and I'm pretty sure my last two are getting lighter. The line should surely be much darker at 19dpo today. My dollar store test is significantly lighter with today's FMU since yesterdays middle of the day test. Any encouraging words? If this is what I think it is, when will I know?

fluctuate between pure exhaustion and insomnia. Usually pass out early then up all night on and off. Very frustrating.
Had really bad nausea last night my mouth watered so bad I thought for sure I was going to throw up... (i hate to throw up I avoid at all costs!!) Do I think I will get through this pregnancy with out doing it once... probably not but a girl can dream right? lol

No real advice as I've just freaked out over tests too... Though my IC was darker.
I'd stop testing, it won't help either way. Hope it's nothing or maybe hook effect or something...

 

[Heatherlt]

Teacup, you're absolutely right.. it wont help either way. *Sigh* This whole thing is so stressful.

 

[Angeltk42]

My first pregnancy last year I had the darkest lines imaginable and that ended in miscarriage so although i'm not POAS all the time I still know that dark or light there is no guarantee. Don't stress over a lighter line... because it could just be the test that doesn't have a dark line and be absolutely no indication of what's going on inside with your LO. I know we are all stressed waiting to see if this one sticks but POAS is going to drive you to the brink of insanity. HUGS!!

I know, I'm just worrying constantly, driving myself and DH crazy
I really hope it's jut the tests... Maybe less dye in them or you drank slightly more today? x

 

[Heatherlt]

Thanks, Ladies. I'm not really sure that I did anything that would affect the tests. I'm going to TRY to relax. I have an appointment in a week, and an ultrasound after that. It's all out of my hands now anyway, right?

It's out of all our hands... all we can do is stay healthy, rest and take care of ourselves.. the rest is out of our control. You will be fine Think about your Ultrasound and how relieved you will be when you see your LO healthy!

Hi, I thought I might chance it and see if I can join you ladies

According to FF I got my (very faint!) BFP at 8DPO and EDD 16th November

Today I'm 13DPO today and AF isn't due til Sunday, but trying to be optimistic since I got a 2-3 on a digi this morning.

I also had my hcg and progesterone tested on 11DPO and the results came back as hcg = 104 and progesterone = 138... I get them repeated again next week


This is my 5th pregnancy! I have one DS who is just over 2 years old, and I have had 3 miscarriages at 12, 16 and 4 weeks. I've had tons of tests done and they only thing "wrong" with my is slight low Protein S levels (blood clotting factor) and mildy high blood pressure. So I'm now taking baby aspirin every 2nd day, daily clexane injections (first one tonight!),blood pressure meds, high dose folic acid and some other supplements. I have everything crossed that this will help me have a rainbow baby!!

 

[Heatherlt]

Welcome, Ginny!! Those are some really awesome hcg numbers. I'm hoping this is your sticky rainbow baby.

 

[Heatherlt]

Sooo.. I took another test. I know, I know.. I'm terrible at taking both my own advice and the advice of others lol. And I'm even laughing at myself. Well, the test was dark again. I'm thinking it's definitely my urine and how diluted/not it is. And as I sit here so thirsty that I could chug water, I realize that I've been doing just that the past few nights. I get really thirsty especially at night so I drink a lot before bed and don't wake up at night to pee either. So I'm guessing my FMU isn't exactly the best to test with. And NOW I can breathe a sigh of relief.
