ok so who wants to get pregnant in 2011? (closed group)

[nypage1981]

But now that you are spotting...shouldnt you be able to say yes, I am bleeding?

Our docs do that blood work too for all that. Its the normal screening for the first prenatal visit along with a PAP smear and pelvic. Mine didn't do the HCG either because at the time I was not spotting. Now I would possibly get some sort of other blood work to see if im good still or not.

I am feeling achey today so that sucks. Makes me think something is going even more wrong. SIgh. I hate this.

omg. I don't want to eat anything! It tastes fine, I just don't want to eat! But I HAVE to eat, cos if I don't then I feel 10 times worse, so I'm forcing myself to keep eating and it's bl00dy horrible when I'm hating it so much!! UGH!

ny, good luck!!! I hope you can get a scan ASAP to know if it's ok... I hope that because it's brown, and only on-and-off type spotting that it's nothing to worry about. FX &


baby, I haven't had any more bloods done either. I got my initial lot done, and haven't had any done since. I'm feeling more crappy now though so I'm pretty confident I'm still pregnant! lmao. But I remember I was feeling rather unsure when I was around 5 weeks too... just wait another 10 days and you'll more than likely be feeling more symptoms!!!

 

[nypage1981]

Yes I have been feeling really crappy too. I am nauseas a lot and pissy. But to me that could be what happens when i've had a missed MC too cuz the hormones would drop quickly, making me feel ill. SO, yea.

 

[babyhopes2323]

Thanks flying for reassuring me about those symptoms !! im sure ill feel more symptoms around week 6. im only 5 and something now.. i didnt want to eat too and when i do, sometimes im at the table and i just want to cry. im an emotional mess i can clearly say ! sometimes im all elated and sometimes i get the blues !

NY,i havent been spotting. i wiped brown once. its never come after that. i have white normal discharge and i did have yellow on one or two occasions, but brown was once, so i didnt bother going to ask for bloods or call it spotting.

cant wait to hear about your appointment.. please try not to feel crabby..easier said than done i know, but ive realised its important we keep our minds in a happier state, if not for ourselves , then atleast for the babies.

Hello girls- I went for a scan and saw baby again! Well, it looked like a gummy bear. So that's what I call it- gummy bear. They still say so far so good. Im not even close to being out of the clear but gummy bear is hanging on. My last one stopped growing 6w5d and this one is 7w1d so im making progress over that at least. Wish I owned an ultrasound machine. Im pretty sure since ive had 2 in 1 week that they will not let this psychotic girl come for another any time soon and that kills me not knowing if there's still a heartbeat in there. YIKES!

yay! does it give you any comfort that all is ok? I would think after 2 scans the worry would be a little less? and when would be your next scan then?

 

[MummyCat]

Brilliant news NY hope that the bleeding stops and you can enjoy this pregnancy a little xx

 

[nypage1981]

Hmmmm, am I less stressed? Honestly, for today. Cuz yea, I know today my baby is well. I wish I owned an ultrasound machine. I can't face each day without knowing the heart is still beating! I have NO idea now when the next would be. I dont think im to be seen by doctor until 10 weeks now. So..3 weeks.

 

[nypage1981]

Sorry- didn't realize I practically just repeated myself from the first post. I am such a nut case these days. I may have to sneak a peek at work under the radar. I work in radiology. Not ultrasound but have my connections I just dont want to make a friend scan me if I don't know everything is ok because I would hate to make her tell me the bad news....

 

[sarahincanada]

hey can it be bad to have lots of ultrasounds early on, or are they 100% safe? I have no clue so was just wondering

 

[nypage1981]

Hmmm. I dont know! I'd think its safe since just sound waves but don't think there's been any true studies confirming either or.

 

[babyhopes2323]

hey NY , excellent news see ! the spotting is normal and im not trying to pry or anything, and the internet does have a load of crap in it, but they say if you have sex in first tri, sometimes the uterus gets a bit irritated and can cause spotting. dont know how far that is true ! im abstaining thats for sure !

yay hopefully you can relax a bit more now. and the doc i went to said lots of ultrasounds cant be safe etc etc, its sound waves and your baby is just growing, why expose it to such waves etc, but i was insistent on getting an early scan.

there are many ladies who have ultrasounds every week and still go on to have a nice healthy baby so it should be ok !

hopefully every one else is feeling better !

 

[flyingduster]

Oh NY! YAY! Yay for a healthy little growing bean! I know it won't allay any fears for the next few weeks, but if it's gotten this far with on & off spotting, then TRY not to worry toooo much, and enjoy it...


I'm feeling worse. lol! I'm 8 weeks now (yay!) but sheesh. If I'm not eating enough, I'm nauseous, but if I eat I'm bloated. I'm trying to keep a constant low-level flow of food going in, but I'm hating eating so it's just a struggle! Feeling like crap basically! UGH! And now hubby is eating sausages & tomato sauce, and I'm feeling sick at the strong smell. Ewwwwwww!

I still haven't thrown up though... Some women have gotten to 8-9 weeks and THEN gotten bad vomiting, but I'm hoping I can get through this without vomiting... lol

I'm hanging out for the 12 weeks+ though when it begins to ease!!!

 

[Huggles]

Hi, I'm still here.

we've managed to get our butts into gear re bd'ing. Twice on Tuesday and then again twice yesterday and once this morning, hoping for this evening as well. Then Saturday and Sunday, at least once each day, maybe twice. Think i'm going to ov this weekend, either tomorrow or sunday, we'll see.

 

[babyhopes2323]

ooh flying, i can imagine. i can smell things from a distance too !! feel like a dog sometimes.. keep asking around.. whats that smell, whats that smell !

yay for your8 wks, you should be able to have a HB scan now.. or have you already had one?

here i am like a mad woman dying for some symptoms so that i can "Feel" pregnant, but there isnt any.. sore bbs even gone !

yay huggles, if you feel youre ovulating then thats really good and FX'D for your bfp this cycle..

 

[sarahincanada]

hi everyone!
just popping on to say hi, Im crazy busy right now...had a tax audit yesterday and now have to drive into toronto to get blood tests for my operation then loads of work to do. lots to do before I leave for england on tuesday but will check back in over the weekend to see how you are all doing. lots of love to the growing beans and good luck to anyone in the tww

 

[nypage1981]

Baby we have not had any sex since my bfp! Poor us. So not spotting from that. I'm just gonna go with the flow. Started feeling super ill again. Ugh. But yay.

Good job huggles. Sounds like you did your part, now its your bodies turn.

Have a good doctors appointment Sarah!

Flying sometimes morning sickness is just extreme queaziness but not puking. That's usually how I get and I think its starting. I also am starting to not like food which is strange for me.ick.

Hope everyone else is well today!

 

[babyhopes2323]

Hey good news Ny, i cant wait to feel sick myself. seems like your bodies going into pregnancy mode.. good for you..

Sarah.. yay for the blood works .. your'e so close to your operation !and im a day after you for the scan, although i may have a cheeky one on Tuesday(got an appointment for what was supposed to be a 6wk 6 day scan will now be a 5wk, 6day scan) when you go to england, only because im paranoid, and thats just me , and i just want to see a fetal pole as the last time i only saw the g sac and yolk sac.

everyone else have a good day !

 

[sarahincanada]

hey everyone! Ive been cramping all day, its so weird. it started as I was walking to my blood test appointment and has been on and off. I had this one other month (the one month I was convinced I was pregnant). So I go from 'theres no way I can get pregnant this month' to 'hmmm cramps, could it be implantation!!'!!! oh well, at least it makes the 2WW interesting. I think most of you said you didnt feel anything much in the 2WW right? Im only 4 or 5 dpo so Im sure its nothing, and if I have conceived implantation will be very difficult anyway so wouldnt have much hope. *sigh* I was quite happy just waiting for my op thinking this month was a no-go and then I get stupid cramps

 

[flyingduster]

Good luck Huggles!!! I don't know where you get the energy from to BD that much! lmao!


baby; I'm not getting my first scan until I'm 12 weeks 3 days along; I'm fully booked at work so can't take any time off for an earlier scan! And the earlier ones are just to date me anyway, and I KNOW my dates without a shadow of a doubt as to the timing (I charted my temps, and only BD the ONE day that I ovulated; there's no doubt it's even one day off! lmao) so there's not a whole lot of worry as to the dates IMO. So my first scan is on April 4th! I hope.... I should contact my midwife next week and make sure she made it for then, cos it's the only time off I have now! lol

And don't worry, I had very little symptoms until I was about 6.5 weeks along, and THEN I started feeling a bit 'off'...


Sarah, oooh, good luck! I didn't feel anything in my TWW. In fact I felt like I wasn't pregnant at all and was fully prepared to focus on the next cycle already!!! lol. I HOPE the cramping is implantation cramps! FX for you that all is fine in there!!!


nypage; yeah it seems all I'm getting is nausea. It's pretty constant, and it's worse if I don't eat (but then I'm bloated if I DO eat... ugh) but with absolutely no vomiting now at just over 8 weeks, I'm hopeful it doesn't GET to the point of vomiting! I'm sorta glad I DO have the nausea; it makes me *feel* pregnant; ya know? But I'm also glad it's not vomiting sickness too! haha!
