Is it for the other November group?

kwynia-I'm on the oral form of prometrium too and I've had daily spotting/discharge with LO's pg and this current one. I think some of it is due to the progesterone as I only started getting it when I started my current dosage (200mg 2x/day. I took 100mg 2x/day for DS and DD1) but I also have a history of unexplained bleeds and SCHs in my first tri so how much is one and how much is the other is hard to say. But hopefully it's just the meds for both of us, right?

afm-big blob of light brown opaque discharge tonight and achey/tight belly. Same old, same old at this point but FX I don't see any clots. I'm expecting one but I would prefer not to see one just the same.

 

[kwynia]

Thanks Dairy, I'm hoping so.

 

[Embo78]

thanks everyone. No more spotting for me and I've checked the tp every single time I've gone to the loo! I'm hoping it was just some old stuff making it's way out from implantation Only 2 more weeks until I see whether everything is ok in there

I've updated the front page with all the new rainbows. Please tell me if I've missed anyone or if I've made a mistake. There's a few EDD's that need updating too so let me know those if your EDD isn't on the front page too

How's everyone doing today?

No. A (now inactive) user on here made a fb group and added her b&b friends into it to keep them all updated x

Glad your spotting stopped. How're your symptoms? Still kicking your behind? I'm getting sick as a dog in the morning x

 

[Embo78]

Symptoms are still nice and strong and are reassuring me each day. They don't seem to come and go like with my previous pregnancies which I'm really glad about!

Yeah I'm bad in a morning too and until about 4-5pm when the nausea wears off. That's when the tiredness really takes over and I'm counting the minutes til I can go to bed!!

So glad to hear of your symptoms too hun Are you having an early scan?

 

[Embo78]

I bet you didn't recognise me on the fbook group cos I'm blonde now

 

[Ladybirdgb]

Morning ladies

Hope all you ladies who have had spotting are ok this morning???? fingers crossed it goes away completely for you xxxxx

I went and managed to get my bloods taken yesterday lol nurse at doctors totally failed she tried bless her but my vein collapsed and she gave up so off to the hospital I went. Phlebotomist got it first time yay!!!!

Anyway had to go see doctor this morning and he spoke to a consultant re my blood pressure issues the consultant agreed that my home readings where fine, but I possibly have white coat syndrome Ie I don't like having my blood pressure done at hospital or the doctors but as a precaution I have been put on low dose asprin to thin my blood reducing the risk of blood clots and reducing the risk of miscarriage

dentist tomorrow glad they don't take my blood pressure when I go there I hate the dentist

Oh Embo my dd is 5/11/15 cheers for adding me to the front page hun xxxx

 

[Embo78]

My mum is the same at the docs ladybird. She gets so worked up and anxious and her bp goes sky high. I think I'll tell her to check it at home to see if it's better when she isn't so worked up

I'm the same with my veins. I have TERRIBLE veins!

Good luck at the dentist. I hate the dentist. Have a massive fear

 

[SweetV]

I have been told that I have beautiful veins to see but they are hard to puncture. my IV at the hospital kept coming out the last time I was in the hospital.

I seem to have the disappearing symptoms. I think my tummy issues stem from not being able to go to the bathroom. I'm so bloated and I just keep drinking water. I had to pee every 15 minutes last night until 2 am!!

Thanks for the info re the fb group. I kept seeing these secret groups being created and never jumped on the bandwagon lol. I have better access to fb than b&b at work.

 

[girlinyork]

I bet you didn't recognise me on the fbook group cos I'm blonde now

Yes lol. I didn't make the connection

I just had a call through about an early scan. 3rd April in the afternoon. I'll get a call soon to book a time. I get to have it on the antenatal ultrasound suite instead of the epu which fills me with glee because the epu is full of bad memories

 

[Embo78]

Brilliant just a few days before mine.

I know exactly what you mean about Epu. I go cold just thinking about being there. Mind you the last few times I was there it was very positive cos it's when I was pregnant with maxi moo!

 

[dairymomma]

Two more days. TTTWWWWOOOOO more long drawn out stupid days before my scan.

Had a bunch of teeny red strings in the toilet last night but they were bright red and only a bit of red staining on the tp. Nothing like I've had all weekend. Odd. I want my scan done so I know what's going on in there but it doesn't pay to try and move it up this week because the dr is in surgery today then off the afternoon. Tomorrow he's at a different hospital and it's too last minute to squeeze me in there for both the scan and the appt, so I'm stuck with Thursday. Boo. And Thursday can't come soon enough.

But it positive news, I feel like puking. That's gotta count for something, eh?

 

[girlinyork]

Yes sickness is a great sign dairy xx

 

[Embo78]

Yup! Sickness is goooood!!

Make sure you get a pic. It would be lovely to see your rainbow. I have a funny feeling everything is going to be oK for you jill

 

[Ladybirdgb]

I really hate the dentist with a passion I just hope I don't gag to much when they are doing anything as just brushing my teeth has me retching like mad lol.

I still feel sick if I have not eaten in a few hours, was feeling a bit ropey this morning after toast with butter weird!!!!

Soooo cant wait until my scan on Thursday 8.30 am at the ultra sound department excited and still scared incase anything is wrong going on my own as well as hubby is taking our daughter to school.

Hope all goes well with your scan dairy xxxxx

 

[kwynia]

I feel a bit behind, both because I have a late november due date, and because I'm in the states. Always playing catch up

However, I'm feeling a lot of the same stuff, nausea comes and goes in waves., eating seems to help. Quite a bit of dizziness and lightheadedness but apparently that is how hormones affect me because it doubles after i take my prometrium. Quite a lot of round ligament pain and I'm glad I know what that feels like from my other pregnancies otherwise i might be alarmed at how sharp those pains can be.

Glad everyone sounds well, just waiting on scans is torture. My scan is in two weeks, I'll be 6w4d by lmp but almost 7 weeks because i have really short cycles and ovulate early.

 

[dairymomma]

Em-my EDD according my guesstimates is Nov 12 but I'd prefer to not be on the list until I know for sure what's going on. I think it's the same feeling with my ticker/signature. I'm not updating that until I know what's going on because it would be just gut-wrenching to put my ticker back only to find out in two days that there's no baby.

(Must wait. DO NOT CALL DR FOR NEW SCAN DATE. MUST WAIT. *I'm almost literally having to sit on my hands to keep myself from calling the dr office right now... I want to know SO badly. This sucks.)

 

[Embo78]

We should set up a group on facebook for our november rainbows

Sorry you're going to your scan alone ladybird. I've been to a couple alone and I was actually a lot calmer than when DH is with me strangely!

kwynia. I don't think you're the only American mummy in here hun I'll probably have my baby towards the end of November cos I always go over my due date. I'm going to avoid induction this time cos it was a nightmare with Max. Three day long induction
