Not feeling to positive ....my # this morning was 560...the doctor said not to worry since it was a different clinic but omg I'm finna burst out in tears..

I'm not very experienced with HCG either as it's not routinely tested where I'm from, but from what I understand your numbers look to be in the normal range. For some women with a normal pregnancy the number is higher, for others with perfectly normal pregnancies the number is a bit lower. It's still going up so that's good! And perhaps you ovulated or implanted later
Welcome to the group by the way!

Mumofboys - welcome to you too

Elmo - yes it was quite hectic this morning but really do feel loads better. Definitely taking it easy. Xx

Welcome to huni and mumofboys - a week or two ago I was having the same thing but in the right hand side of my back and so far all seems ok. I hope all is well when you get your 6 week scan

Thank you! I feel better knowing it's not just me - how far along are you now? I sometimes wonder whether my posture has changed and if I have just got in my mind that something will be wrong! I keep thinking I'm getting shoulder pain at times too but again, I really do think that is in my head because of what I have previously gone through! I usually don't like talking on these boards until I know everything is okay but I think it's actually helping me being on here now... It's nice chatting to other mums going through the same stage of pregnancy! It feels more real talking on here now!

Mumofboys - welcome to you too

Huni hope all is okay with your bean.

So I've been exposed to the flu through a child I diaper ed and everything at work. My infertility nurse didn't seem too worried but I was being discharged that day I wonder if I should call my dr today or wait until Monday I feel fine just phlegmy throat a super minimal cough but want to make sure my little bean is okay does it matter of I wait or should I call on call Dr today? Wish I called yesterday.

Thanks for the encouraging words ladies...This chart is the only thing keeping me sane...that means I'm showing above what is expected for 4 w

 

[mum_of_boys]

Hunni - remain positive I'm sure everything is just fine!

I hate the initial 12 weeks...

 

[hunni12]

Part of feels like it's fine considering their going up 200+ and all. I never did the beta # thing with my son

 

[hunni12]

Just a minor update...I think things may be okay and my levels are steady rising. OH went and bought me a test just to clear my head. Anyways, the control is way lighter than the test I took this morning which indicated bean is holding on. So for now, I am staying postive and also I am not cramping as much.

Plus, i damn near passed out in the store lol.


I swear BNB is like the biggest support system ever versus some of the other forums I have seen

 

[ElmoBumpToBe]

That is an absolutely amazing test!!! I wouldn't worry about beta levels your HCG is clearly nice and high with a test like that!

Mumofboys I am 9 weeks tomorrow and also a mum of boys by the way

Could murder a cup of tea but we are in bed, DH is alseep and I can't be bothered to go and make it myself! X

 

[almosthere]

Huni Def rising relax now you and baby uare totally okay! My beta levels were only checked with my specialist once every week just know if it's rising that's good keep positive

So last pregnancy I had the worst. Charlie horses leg cramps but this time I woke up with sore calves without the cramp so weird also I got my second painful pelvic uterus cramping on my left side when getting off the couch apparently too quickly sounds like round ligament pain and I had this happen once before my ultrasound so I'm assuming it's normal it's so painful I can't walk for a minute anyone else?

 

[ElmoBumpToBe]

Do you mean like where you move to quickly and get a very sharp pain stabbing in the side? I have had that and it passes after around a minute?

 

[almosthere]

Yes it is so painful! I've read round ligament pain occurs later like 2nd tri but one article said after first baby it can occur end of first trimester which I'm entering tomorrow 8 weeks so I think it's that it's excruciating though!

 

[Jox]

I've had a read to catch up but I'm sorry I don't remember most of what I've read.

Been awake because of work.

I'm spotting pink snot when I wipe, started about 9.30ish I think. I was at work but at home now. Will call epu tomorrow. This is it I know it is

Sorry for the selfish post xx

 

[ElmoBumpToBe]

Of course it isn't selfish Jox, oh Hun I know your heart will be in your mouth right now, but this does not mean it's the end, it could just be your body telling you to slow down, you have been busy at work. Get some rest and get to epu tomorrow hopefully they won't make you wait with your history but if you wanted to you could go to a&e tonight, my midwife told me epu and a&e are both an option if I was ever to bleed. Sending you massive hugs xxx

 

[Jox]

OH wanted me to go to a&me but I don't want to go, I know they won't do anything and will just tell me I need epu tomorrow. I'm just hoping epu don't need a referral from mw or I'm screwed till Tuesday I'm so upset. I know people bleed but I'm not gonna be one of those lucky ones that everything turns out ok

I had some sharp pains last night but they felt like pains from wind iykwim? Like it passes and u pass wind if that makes sense, I really wasn't worried by them

 

[ElmoBumpToBe]

It could even be some thrush or uti. I know it's practically impossible, but try not to be stressed and upset as that's the one thing that's not good for baby. Hopefully it will not get any worse over night and you can get yourself to epu tomorrow, if they really won't see you tomorrow, you can try and see if tbe private clinics are open and can see you, I think it's important you get scanned tomorrow so you can relax. Sending you lots of healing and calming thoughts Jox. Please keep me updated xx

 

[Jox]

Thanks elmo, chances r I.l break down on the phone to epu so will b surprise if they don't see me but I never know. And as for private, I don't think I could hand over £60 for them to tell me my baby is dead and I'm mcing I'm sorry. Just had far too much shit happen for me to think this is gonna be any different xx

 

[ElmoBumpToBe]

I completely understand. Hopefully epu will see that you need to be seen xxxx

 

[hunni12]

Thanks everyone for being so supportive.

And I actually got round ligament pain very early. I also get lightening crotch lol.

@jox: you are not selfish. I'm sure everything is fine love and bubs is growing away

 

[Jox]

Thanks Hun xx
