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

[babyhopes2323]

yay sarah.. FX'D.... BFP please or BFP after op, anyone will do !!!

yeah flying i guess im just sooooooooo impatient.. i absolutely cannot imagine you are waiting until 12 weeks for your first scan. i would go bonkers in all that time. im trying and mostly will have a second scan on tuesday, just to look for that fetal pole so that im a little more convinced !!

i so dont feel pregnant and so its very difficult for me to eat healthy. im also reading too much on the internet so worried about blighted ovum, heartbeat, why im not feeling pregnant etc.. its making me mad !

hi everyone!

what you all doing this weekend? I am getting ready for my trip and doing some last minute work. Being self employed I can take time off when I want, but theres a lot to do before and after the trip

Im still crampy, I really do not think Im pregnant as I did have this before, Im thinking its perhaps when the hormones kick in gearing up for your period and perhaps my polyp creates an aching too. I have read of people being crampy before their bfp but most people I talk to on here had barely any symptoms at all. So Im back to ignoring everything, and its only 17 days till my operation

ny how is the spotting? flying I hope the nausea eases off soon! baby stop googling!! I look forward to you seeing your fetal pole

FF finally put my coverline on my chart today and it says we have "High" on our bding. I woke up this morning with the intention of taking a shower and going straight into work but it's pouring rain here so I texted my boss that I was going to give it some time to settle down. I may even just go in tomorrow as I am only working the weekend so that I can have free lunch with my bosses those days.

 

[flyingduster]

baby, I agree with Sarah; STOP GOOGLING!!! lol. Research is great, but you can read far too much into it too, try not to google toooo much!! I didn't get any real symptoms until well over 6 weeks. I know you are a worrier by nature, so don't try NOT to worry; that'll just be a waste of time! But try not to feed your worry too hun. Keep positive!


sheryl, yay on good timing of BD!!! GOOD LUCK for you TWW now!!


Sarah, YAY! only 17 days!! hahaha


AFM I'm much the same. Tired, nauseous, bloated. lol!! We got the proofs back from the photographer the other day; from the photo shoot we had with my dad, stepmum, my brother and his fiancée! We've chosen a group shot of us all, and a photo of just me and hubby. I look forward to getting them back, as we've not had any photos done of us since we got married! AND this time I can say that I was 6.5 pregnant in the photo tooooo!!!! hehehehehe

 

[babyhopes2323]

thanks sarah and flying.. i know exactly what you mean about googling.. its an addiction and ive got to stop.. i want to be honest about one thing though. id rather stick here than go on to first tri because being brutally honest, i feel so many negative vibes from first tri, its sickening me to the point where im starting to feel paranoid. i dont blame those women on first tri who start threads because they are concerned, but every other day theres some thread about miscarriage even though it hasnt happened.

it hasnt happened for these women, but they still post threads about it and start talking about it and instead of cherishing their pregnancy or sending out positive vibes, its more of a fear i feel every time i go on to first tri, i open most threads and just read and dont post into it because its so negative.

me as a negative worrier, would like some comfort from these threads rather than worrying about what some women would write which then makes me go on to google other symptoms etc.

honestly, i cant wait for this saga of 12 weeks to get over. its like your first ttcing, and worried, then you are pregnant and worried for 12 weeks, and its a constant phase. so i think im going to try and steer away from first tri for a while. i havent started a single thread on there as i fear all this negativity is wearing me down.

so sorry for the rant but this is honestly how i feel.

xxx have a nice day !

 

[sarahincanada]

awww preethi, just stick with us and then move over in 2nd tri!! I would be constantly worrying over there too. the first tri is so stressful that its good to shelter yourself from any added worry.

afm, Ive hurt my back really bad, last night I could barely walk. a couple of times a year I get this trapped nerve in my lower back, its when my pelvis twists and start hitting a nerve. its excruciating pain, and last night I was so upset that I may not be able to fly on tuesday. today after sleeping its a little less excruciating, but I will have to see how it is as the day goes on. I am going to go and see a chiro tomorrow to see if they can relieve some of the pressure. I guess I will have to tell him theres a very very slim chance I could be pregnant right now so dont do anything too crazy!

ok it hurts to sit so I will sign off, talk soon my lovelies

 

[babyhopes2323]

oh sarah im so sorry about your back. i hate it when something like that happens just before travel.. dont worry im sure youll be jetting off to england just perfectly fine.. ! eat some nice shortbread and devonshire scones with clotted cream on my behalf..

what i said about first tri is so true.. im going to take your advice and dont worry, was planning on sticking here anyway until 2nd tri.


so i was tensed and got this appointment today, had another early scan, the g -sac and yolk sac was so big and different from the 27 feb scan.. i even saw the fetal pole and more than that. i saw the flicker of the heart beat on the screen.. it was such a relief ! but i was confused as one doc said i was less than 5 weeks, but this one says im about 6 weeks, or a little less and has called me to come on tuesday morning again for a full US and she said we shall then confirm how far along you are and when your due date is. i asked about hearing the heartbeat. she said oh we see it on the screen etc, but im sure i can ask the radiologist on tuesday to let me hear the beat and i was suprised to see the heartbeat so fast since im actually only about 5 weeks and something..

anyway, sigh of relief, ruled out ectopic and blighted ovum and confirmed normal pregnancy so im happy. i was so stressed that my BP was 140/80 !!

got a massive headache now, but going out for a walk and some shopping..

see you ladies soon. xxx

 

[sherylb]

Well you sure make me want to stay away from 1st Tri when I get my bfp. I have plenty going on in the ttc threads as it is.

 

[sarahincanada]

yay preethi!! thats so amazing, your little bean is healthy and growing. now try to relax, the calmer you are the calmer the bean is. looking forward to seeing how the scan goes on tuesday (I will have internet when at home and will be checking in)

 

[flyingduster]

Ohhhh, yes I'm not entirely enjoying the first tri either! I basically don't go there, but I have found a couple of 'ok' threads and I follow them, but I don't go into first tri much cos I don't want to hear everyones worries... Probably bad of me, cos everyone needs support if they're worried, but ugh, there's SO MUCH!! The worries don't stop after the first tri though, they just change! lol.

I think it's worse because anyone who is having problems comes online for help, so there seems like a high number of people having trouble on here, when in reality there's millions more women out there having perfectly normal happy pregnancies who haven't come online to join the forum! Ugh.


So I'm keeping my own little world of support, you guys are awesome and I've got some nice groups on facebook who seem nice too. The rest can keep their worries and fears over there!!! lol

We have to trust our bodies in the end. If we miscarry, there isn't anything we can do to prevent it!! If it's going to miscarry, it's going to. We will continue to take care of our bodies and our growing babies as best we can, but there's nothing we can do if it's not a viable egg so there's no big deal in worrying about it...?? hah, easy for me to say when I've never had a miscarriage I supposed? I know some level of worry is good because it keeps us safe and cautious, but constant stress over every little symptom can't be good for us or our babies... Try to trust in your body.


Baby; YAY for a healthy heartbeat and growing baby!!!!!! YAAAYY!!!

Sarah, ugh I hope your back feels better again ASAP!!

 

[babyhopes2323]

yes flying, i know EXACTLY what you mean , it is so worrying and negative, im not going into first tri at all. thank god for the fact that im not the only person who feels this way about first tri.(flying, cant wait for your scan and for your pics ! make sure you post some. xx

i was so looking forward to going to first tri when i was ttc, now im prego, i wana stay away from that negativity.. i feel more positivity in the ttc thread because over here, even if people are having a tough time getting preggo, i find they still have so much hope and faith and positive vibes in them, knowing that its going to happen to them at some point !

with people like sarah who are a constant source of support to us prego ladies in her ttc thread, i dont need the worries from first tri. and the best part is, ok i feel sorry and pray for those who are undergoing problems with their pregnancy. but those that arent, still post such negative threads.

sherylb, its upto you. if you want to know what i mean, have a peek on first tri and see how many threads youll find negative,. im sticking with flying and am not going into first tri..at the end , its upto you where you feel comfortable !

massive headache...now.. so going to try to get to bed..

sarah, hope your feeling better with your back.. yay to the countdown for your op. xxx

 

[sherylb]

I looked at a few and I think I would want to stay away. I am a total worry-wart.

 

[NDH]

Sorry I've been away for a couple of days - very busy.

Preethi, how amazing you got to see the hb already! Too cool!

I too will be staying away from first tri when I get pregnant for the most part. I'll have my preggo journal and most of the threads I'm currently following and that's about it I think. Everyone talks about the negativity in first tri (and I know it's probably for good reason as most losses happen then) but I'm a meta-worrier (I worry about how much I worry) and I don't need other people's ideas of things to worry about when I finally get pregnant lol - I want to enjoy it as much as I possibly can.

 

[babyhopes2323]

yay sheryl, another one in the team on anti first tri's... and NDH too !! id like to join your team of what you call meta worrier.. im a paranoid crazy worrier, but am trying to calm down for the sake of others and my baby

where are you in your cycle.. cant wait for your BFP... xx

 

[NDH]

I have absolutely no idea After AF and before O is all I can say, as I'm trying really hard not to think about where I am in my cycle and worry about BDing enough at the right times etc. If AF isn't here by the 28th I'll be testing, otherwise moving on to another "not trying" cycle and see how that goes.

I'm by no means trying to avoid a Christmas baby (even though my birthday is 27 December and I know firsthand how frustrating it can be to have a Christmas birthday), just needing to relax and not stress myself out about it.

 

[Huggles]

Just checking in quickly.
Think i might have ov'd last night. Guess there's not much more to do but wait and see. Still going to bd a few more times this week just in case, but I reckon after about wednesday we should be safe - if i ov'd at all!
Planning to test either Saturday 19 March (CD 31) or Monday 21 March (CD 33). Will see how I'm feeling closer to the time. REally don't want another bfn, would rather the witch just arrived if I'm not pg, so either want a bfp or af, but not another bfn.

 

[babyhopes2323]

FX'D for that BFP then huggles.. i would think wait it out and test.. early testing might result in bfns, thats what happened to me, i was testing early and kept getting bfn's.

sending lots and lots of your way..xx

 

[nypage1981]

Hello-

Good for you seeing your fetal pole and heartbeat baby! Did they do an internal? And so what they are thinking is you are further along than you thought? Thats good!

Sarah- I pinched my nerve the other day too on the right side. Idk if its the same but either that or it is sciatica. I dont know but was bad! Its still hurting but lessening.

Good luck Huggles on the testing. I'd wait til you are late. I figured the other day I found out when I was like 3 weeks along. Ugh. That is torture! Im only 7 and some and feels like i've known forEVER.

NDH- you should plan a little getaway during ovulation for your not trying cycle. I swear by it! PRetty sure we conceived after 12 months when we went to New York and I wasn't tracking anything while there and we had the sort of sex that just felt like baby making sex! Lol.

Hope everyone else is well. I had a busy weekend of work, and saturday hosted a birthday party of 11 little girls at home. I was on my feet cleaning house at 8 am and sat down at about 7 at night. I got super super crampy and was so afraid I was miscarrying from doing too much It was really achey. I am thinking it was just too much and I shoulda rested more! I will today

 

[MummyCat]

Hope you're all okay!!

NDH, not stressing about it is def the best way! Huggles I hope you've caught that egg!

Babyhopes, so pleased you got to see the heartbeat!!

NY.. that's a lot of hard work... make sure you put your feet up and rest!

Flying.. how are you feeling today?

Sheryl hope you're doing well!

Sarah.... is it one more sleep till you fly????? Hope you have a brilliant time away!!

AFM... I'm good... just exhausted, but it's been a busy few days!

 

[babyhopes2323]

Hi Ny, she says im about 6 weeks looking at LMP but she said i conceived late because baby is small. i know i ovulated late so i cant be 6 weeks.. anyway got another scan tomorrow, for dating and hopefully will be able to hear the heartbeat this time.. xx

hope everyone else is doing fine, i think you should get away during O time too NDH, could take the stress out of babymaking.

hey mummy, glad your doing ok !

Ny, take some rest !! you dont wana be doing too much at this timeee... although i think considering youve got a little one already, its going to be a challenge to try and rest !

xx

sarah, hope your better, i know your flying tomorrow, going to miss you.. please do pop in.. xx
