I'm hoping it's more high hcg levels than twins!! Just so I don't have to fight for a hb or spend a fortune on an independant midwife lol. X

Morning gals

Welcome to all the ladies from the other thread!

I knew you would find us ljo

No symptoms yet. I normally get MS pretty early but nothing. My boobs dont even hurt and I am still BF my 1 year old. I dont even really have cramps. Its still early so Im sure everything is fine. But you cant help but worry a little bit.

Hi HGSurvivor. I'm in fife.
My mum only guessed because she knew we wanted another soon, I don't actually know what else made her think that though.

I hope you don't have any of the same with this pregnancy. I am so tired today, I can hardly keep my eyes open. My DD is just away to bed (very late night for her), don't think I will be long at the back of her though. Yes, I think we are due quite close together. I'm just going off what date I think so might change when I get our scan.
I'm quite lucky in that my last pregnancy was quite easy. I hope I get the same this time. Just with an easier (and smaller) delivery at the end.

Evening ladies - this thread moves really fast I am struggling to keep up! Sounds like everyone is doing well with nice Hcg results and good symptoms. Who is first for an ultrasound? I love seeing all the scan pictures!

As for me - I have resisted doing anymore tests (seem to have found some will power from somewhere!) I have sore boobs and I am also permanently cold which is odd cause I was really warm last time I was pregnant but maybe I am just cold cause I am just so tired! Fell asleep in the sofa this evening and now I am in bed - night night all x

I'm not getting boob pain either (normally I do) I'm still breastfeeding one of my twins so maybe it's cos of that? I havnt breastfeed while pregnant before so I wouldn't know

 

[Jcliff]

I literally cant deal with this fatigue!! It was never this bad with my DD. I have also started to feel a bit nauseous. Mostly at the mid/end of the day. Its funny because I wake up STARVING, and then its all down hill from there. Yikes!! Anyway, how are you all feeling? Im scheduling my first US for February 17th! The first US is always so nerve wracking!!

 

[CharlieKeys]

My first antenatal appt is 25th feb .... The week i *should* be 12 weeks is the week I'm on holiday ... So not sure how they'll work the U/S around that

 

[staceymxxx]

So monday my hcg was 113, thursday 384 so today it was suppose to be 768. ... its 1215 Instead! !!!! First scan on Thursday to see if we are having one or two babies! !! Xx

 

[kel21]

Congrats on those numbers staceymxx.

 

[whigfield]

Oooh CharlieKeys my first midwife appointment is the 25th Feb too. Maybe they'll do the US a bit earlier?

Congrats on the numbers stacey! They sound great!

 

[grich2011]

My first scan is Thursday as well to give me my due date!

I breastfeed through my last pregnancy and it was SOOOO painful! It's why I decided to test in the first place lol. I figured it would be the same this time around

 

[zephyr]

Oh wow I hope I don't get any pain then!
Did your kids self wean while pregnant? I'm kinda hoping my boy will cos he is a boobie man and won't give them up.

 

[sprite30]

I'm having my first scan on Monday morning at 7 am just to see if there are multiple and to make sure it's in the uterus. I can't wait to get another set of betas as well

 

[jmandrews]

Wow! Everyone has been very chatty today I love it! I'm having trouble getting caught up. I updated the first page. Please double check and make sure I did not miss you. I changed the name to October bumpkins. Seemed like everyone agreed it would be best if we were all together

Hope everyone is getting rest and not too nauseas. I am so excited for the ladies who have scans this week! Can't wait to see everyone's little beans and if anyone has multiples. Yay!

Sorry I haven't been able to be on here much today. My twin sister is here visiting with her DH and baby who turned one today our DD's love each other so much it's so sweet.

Nope she nursed through the whole pregnancy. I was hoping to tandom until she was at least 2. But As soon as baby got here she stopped nursing. I dont know if it was because she was used to nothing being there or if she didnt like the new milk taste. But she did wean on her own. It kinda worked out for me

I thought since I nursed through my whole pregnancy that I would be ok nipple wise when baby got here...Boy was I wrong! Im kinda glad she weaned when she did, cause it hurt SO bad.

 

[zephyr]

Oh thats really cool how that worked out!

Today has been a good day. No sickness or anything, just cramps still.

 

[zephyr]

I'm looking forward to hearing who has multiples too

im freaking out about multiples again, im a bit chubby, had frat twins already, over 30, have lots of kids already and was also breastfeeding when I got pregnant so I have good reason to panic. The ONLY thing keeping my mind at ease about having multiples again is the fact I got pregnant two days after I *think* I ovulated.
Tbh I think that's probably why im putting off my scan lol it wouldn't be too bad as I know what to expect and there's so much id do differently the second time round but I know twins are lots of work and I would pack myself the entire pregnancy lol

We knew we were taking a risk having one more and were happy to take the risk but we did discuss the what ifs a lot beforehand to make sure we were both sure hehe

Hi ladies, I need some support. I had hcg levels checked on 1/27 at 3 weeks 6 days and had hcg level of 73. I decided to email my nurse practioner to ask if it was a good # and she said that it concerned her with me being almost 4 weeks. I did do another blood test yesterday 1/31 but still waiting for results. I hope it will all be ok.
