Welcome almostthere! Glad you took my suggestion
Elmo - what you said about your kidney infection made me feel a lot better - thank you! Also, just yesterday I had an episode that sounds a lot like what you just described. Not terrible cramping per se, but I suddenly felt extremely weak/faint and sweaty. I usually get like that when I haven't eaten much, but I'd eaten not long before that so not sure what was up. I felt better after about 5-10 mins.
As for telling people... I've told soooo many people! I'll probably regret it if we MC, and that IS something I'm very scared of, but I figure I'll have lots of people's support and it'll be fine. I feel almost ashamed to have told some people so early, but I guess it's down to personal choice, right?
Testingwise, I was going to test this morning on an IC to see line progression but only remembered once my pee was in the t-bowl :doh: I'll have to do it tomorrow.
As for my kidney thing, here's a copy and paste from another thread, but if you don't want to read it 'cause it's pretty long, the tl;dr version is that docs don't think I have UTI/kidney infection but I'm baffled as to why I have so many symptoms, plus I have terrible history of getting super sick from it, so I made them prescribe me amoxicillin, and I'm debating whether to take it or not. FULL VERSION:
So I went to the doc today and was seen by a resident. She said the urine sample I gave two weeks ago had no signs of UTI, which is odd because the pain in my bladder and urethra never resolved since the first time a UTI was identified, so why would I have the pain? And why do I have an enlarged right kidney and pain in my left kidney? When she took my temp via my ear, it was bordering fever (37.5 degrees C), but they didn't want to give me meds because the urine showed nothing. I basically bullied her and the supervising doctor into giving me antibiotics just in case the tests were wrong (maybe my pee was too diluted coz I was drinking a shit-tonne of water at the time?). Well, I didn't bully (I'm actually quite unassertive), but given my terrible history with repeated UTI and possible risk of pyelonephritis when pregnant, I conveyed my concern. They prescribed me amoxycillin and I have another appt on Monday with a diff doc (re: pg) and gave another urine sample today. I'm pretty confused about whether I should take these antibiotics or not. I personally thinks its worth the risk of side effects and resistance. It's also apparently safe to take when pg. As a side note, interestingly, I measured my temp orally and via armpit with two separate thermometers when I got home and I don't have anything close to fever... SO CONFUUUUSED!
We are very cautiously excited as our last transfer attempt in December didn't work out. I look forward to hanging out here and following along with your pregnancies.
