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

[flyingduster]

Ahhhh, a break in the symptoms! This is nice!!! lol! I have some energy, I'm able to feel hunger now, not just nausea, and I'm not feeling as bloated! *bliss*

My symptoms have been easing the past few days, though they come back with a vengance from time to time, they have been easing *in general* which is lovely! lol! I even ate a real meal last night. Sorta. ok, half a real meal, but it was good! lol. Yesterday my boob was hurting soooooooooooooooo bad, and (TMI, sorry) last night when I undressed for bed I realised my nipples were so freekin huge, they were erect and sticking out SO far like a cartoon porn star or something! lmao! They're a bit better this morning, though they're still aching. *sigh*

But the nausea is easing, which I'm LOVING.

Ugh I don't have much for nausea but it is just an overall hate for food. I stand in the kitchen starving my brains out unable to eat anything. Spaghetti o's are all I could manage. Lol. Otherwise I don't really feel much of anything lately.

Baby I'm sorry I'm confused. So the ultrasound put you back in dates is that what you meant? How far do they say you are and how far were oj the first scan? It's easy to be off in the beginning.

Hi mummy how are hings wih your baby? Good?

 

[flyingduster]

ny, that's all I had for a week too; just a total lack of appetite. NOTHING sparked my appetite, I was so hungry, but there was nothing I wanted to eat despite the house being full of food!!! It then progressed to nausea on and off, and then constantly, and now it appears to be easing back to the on & off status! I still have no appetite though. lol!

O.M.G. My boobs are on FIRE!! yeouch!!! They did this yesterday morning, so I'm hoping they ease like they did yesterday too, I can deal with tender boobs, but omg when I'm sitting perfectly still and they are burningly painful..? UGH!

 

[MummyCat]

NY.. all good so far, my boobs have been stinging big time... so much that i spend a lot of time having to squish them to soothe them!

Glad to hear it's all good news with everyone! x

 

[nypage1981]

I am fine too...wish I had more symptoms though. I have felt crampy and achey since saturday so thats a new one for me to obssess and worry about

Sarah- how long of a trip are you taking? Remember your ear plugs for the Justin Bieber concert. Lol. That sounds like true torture for me!

 

[sarahincanada]

hi everyone! just checking in before I have to go and pack and finish a million little work things. I miss talking to you all already and I havent left yet! I went for a chiro treatment and a massage today, so the pain is a little less but Im still nervous about sitting in a plane for 8 hours. well the good thing is Im so busy Im not even thinking about the TWW so it will go quickly!! will check in again when I can, lots of love to the healthy growing babies and ladies who are waiting for a bfp it will be our turn soon!!

 

[sherylb]

I have been super busy since I went back to work last Monday. Work is very stressful but I only have 6 weeks left. Hopefully DH will have a new job by then.

 

[babyhopes2323]

ok ladies, new improvement,.

Ny, i went for a scan today and i am exactly 6 weeks. its proper measurement taken today.


got a heart rate of 125bpm and a growing fetus.

have another improvement, what they didnt find in the first scan.. i have another gestational sac.. gulp.. measuring 5wk and 2days. the first one measures 6 weeks.

doc said could be twin pregnancy or could be that both were fertilized but one is not growing. they cant say anything for another 2 weeks when i have another scan to determine twin pregnancy, but as of now, there is another adjacent gestational sac, but no yolk sac in that or fetal pole so yea.. im going into the world of google to see what i can find out about such situations !

sarah hope you enjoy your trip. NY, you got the HB etc, so relax.. im all relaxed now with still no symptoms and im 6 weeks..

mummy, flying, hope everyone else is feeling better !

 

[MummyCat]

Have a safe trip Sarah!!

OMG Babyhopes.... we have the same due date... 1.11.11 or 11.1.11 (if you're in the states)

Also... twins.... OMG... well the second sac could possibly explain the spotting? I don't know too much about it..hope all goes well!!

[nypage1981]

Oh baby I'm sorry if it is a twin that was lost. Hope the other one hangs in there. My mc was twins and I lost both. It was so up and down and sad. Most go on to have one perfectly fine though. Hope it clears up ok for you.

 

[babyhopes2323]

Hey, Doc said most likely it could be a twin or an empty sac but my other one seems to be growing perfectly well, and since the twin / not twin, sac is empty and has no yolk sac or anything, i doubt it is going to affect the other one NY !

yes but ill get an answer in two weeks ! hope your not worrying too much..


Mummy, hey hope you or feeling good.. you dont seem to report any symptoms so thats good !

remind me how we have similar dates? im 6 weeks and 1 day today, so if you count the weeks, they say 9 months and two weeks for delivery dont they? when i calculated it showed me 18 of october - 31st, anywhere in between !

But if we do end up having the same dates then yay !!!

 

[NDH]

Baby, they consider gestation to be 40 weeks (from date of lmp if you have a "normal" fp, or by dating scan) so you have roughly 32 weeks to go. However, only like 5% of babies are actually born on the due date. Calculators generally go by your lmp, which puts you ahead of your dating scan by about a week or so, so that's the discrepancy.

 

[babyhopes2323]

oh ok ! i didnt know that. i thought mine was a dating scan yesterday as she measured me exactly at 6 weeks, so 32 weeks then as you say ? yes i thought so as well when i calculated !

how are you doing at the mo ?

 

[MummyCat]

Morning... yep as NDH says, they work it out as 40 weeks, so 32 weeks yesterday works out to 1 Nov... but my daughter was 13 days late... so it's just a date to aim towards for me.

I'm not mentioning symptoms, cos i dont want to over analyse them and stress over them. last pregnancy I did everything right and still ended up with a missed miscarriage, so I'm just going to wait and see what happens

 

[babyhopes2323]

yeah true !

Lets not even mention the dreaded negative M word.. lets stay positive as thats whats going to get us through all of this in the end !

xx

 

[flyingduster]

ooooh, baby! A possible twin!?? How exciting!!!

Guys, if you are 6 weeks now, then it's another 34 weeks until your due date, not 32... Though of course the due date is only a guess date! lol

Sarah, I hope you're having fun!!!

AFM, I'm feeling pretty good. My energy is improving again, and the nausea is definitely decreasing for now. My boobs still ache a fair bit in the mornings, but they ease again by mid-morning usually. I'm just pleased to not be feeling queasy all the time!! And to be able to EAT properly. I'm still not really wanting to eat much, but I'm not feeling tooo terribly bloated when I eat a full meal either, so it's nice to be able to enjoy an evening meal with DH rather than snacking all day & night and him having to eat a meal alone!! lol

I'm gonna be 9 weeks tomorrow! omg! I swear ladies that when I was 4/5/6 weeks that at the time it felt like forever, but in hindsight I'm all of a sudden looming onto 9 weeks, which is getting soooo close to double digits and that magic 12... wow! YAAY!

 

[nypage1981]

Baby- yea there's things lke this that happen all the time so im sure you will be fine and grateful for the one baby that keeps on growin!

I will be so grateful to the powers that be if this pregnancy lasts for me. Im just still so scared that it wont. Now im like, 8 weeks and haven't seen it for a week and fear that ever time im crampy its done and im going to lose it. Grrrr. I can't deny the morning sickness though. Specially since I puked at work this morning but that could be my progesterone pills. Im so scared still.....

Mummy- i like your way of just waiting and seeing what happens and being relaxed about it..

Flying- so cool that you are feeling better! I am accepting how I feel, like crap. Lol.....pretty aweful and I hope that is a good sign! I can't wait to get as far as you are! It will feel so amazing when we are all past this stupid first trimester.

I am sooooo constipated. Ahhhh, TMI! But its the worse i've felt with all that before. Im full of shit! Hahha. Ok, that was not lady like. But couldn't resist. MIsery!

 

[NDH]

Guys, if you are 6 weeks now, then it's another 34 weeks until your due date, not 32... Though of course the due date is only a guess date! lol

Lol, math was never my strong point oops, my bad. It didn't seem right, but I went with it anyway.

 

[flyingduster]

I spoke too soon. I feel like crap again!!! Ok, the nausea is still keeping away (mostly) but after lunch I was feeling soooooooo bloated and TOTALLY drained of energy. My arms and legs were so HEAVY and I didn't want to move. Ugh. I have a physical job too, there's not much I can do BUT keep moving. I did lay down on the table for 10 mins though and it did help a lot. lol!!

I'm not sitting around an HOUR after closing waiting for someone who has apparently forgotten their dog. I have no phone number to call them, so I'm left waiting.... I was feeling So crap earlier that I was really really looking forward to going home, and I'm left sitting here so long that I was crying before from the stupid emotions of just wanting to gooo hoooommmmeeee.

 

[babyhopes2323]

AFM, woke this morning and wiped brown discharge, sorry if TMI, but that was it. im never spotting, just wiping brown every 2-5 days . today was a bit darker than expected, so worried, i called the doctor who said, it could be the empty G-SAC , the embryo that is not growing probably.

i said should i be worried if it turns red? she said no, dont worry, just keep taking those progesterone pills and see me on the 22nd for a scan to rule out the possibility of twins.

i was satisfied because i had a hunch it would be the empty g sac myself but wanted confirmation.

but it seems to be brown discharge when wiping, nothing even comes on my underwear. if it does, its white, so the brown is only when wiping and that too occasionally, but i worry it will turn to full blown red.

whatever happens, im not satisfied completely and so have booked another appointment on sunday morning with another hospital for a second opinion because of my worries.

sunday is the first day of the week in dubai and we have fridays and saturdays as our weekend.

im kind of worried, but we found the heartbeat so im hoping that keeping that in mind, it will calm me down until sunday.

i dont have any nausea or morning sickness like you guys. i have sore boobs but thats it.

i felt very very slightly nauseated yesterday evening but that was it. im into my 6 weeks now so am waiting like a crazy woman for the 6 week expected symptoms eagerly to assure myself again, but havent been experiencing any.
