Pregnant with#1 I Love my bump buddies :)

[missteep]

Can i join you ladies?!! This is my first time ever posting! Just found out a few days ago and am so excited! I am 6 1/2 weeks. Had an appointment yesterday and did the blood work. Have our first ultra sound in two weeks. Like most of you, im terrified something could go wrong.. doesn't help that i have had zero symptoms. Congrats to everyone!!

 

[GoingBananas]

Congratulations to you too!!
I'm still not really getting much symptom action but its still very early. Not sleeping very well so a tad tired. It's really warm here in Australia at the moment so I would LOVE a cider in the sun. Even a beer or cold vino... Never realised how much I crave a drink. Think that being Christmas and having started 2 weeks holiday yesterday, I'm learning it is the worst time for me to get bfp. Fortunately the joy outweighs the desire for alcohol!

[JJsmom]

OH!! I have blood pressure issues and the dietitian at my first appt told me to eat banana's and potatoes!! So I eat loads of banana's and different types of potatoes (But she said don't go overboard on the potatoes) LOL! She said potassium lowers blood pressure! It was 146/96 and it's down to 127/78??? I've never seen it that low!!!!! But they said after a certain point it'll level off some and then probably go back up some towards the end.

 

[JJsmom]

Oh forgot to add, you can hear the heartbeat when they do the ultrasound. At least they did with they did the ultrasound on my belly @ 9 weeks (which I thought I was just over 8. They turned it up and my DS (8) yelled what's that??? He said it sounded like a train going over the roof of the hospital. LOL!

 

[wontgiveup]

Well Family was thrilled Now i just pray that every thing works out, ill be glad when my 12 weeks is up atleast.
My first scan is on 1-14-13/OB appointment

MerryChristmas/night night

 

[GoingBananas]

Merry christmas guys!!
My first OB appointment and scan is the 30th jan.
I have to get more bloods taken in the next day or so though to confirm if/that I have overactive thyroid issues which appeared on my first blood tests. Does anyone have this issue too since bfp or know of anyone with them? Just me?
Anyhow I'm sitting on the couch after a long lunch. My family are all festively boozed and snoozing, I'm awake and sober. IT'S KILLING ME!!!

 

[wontgiveup]

That's when my first midwife appointment should be too, though from what the doctor said I don't think I get a scan until about two weeks later.

You should be able to see the heart beat then, from what I've read. Everything I've seen says you should be able to see it from about 6 weeks.

I don't really have MS either. I've had a few moments of queasiness and lost my appetite at times, but no proper sickness.

Not having ms is making me feel like something is wrong, I keep reading storys of were they go to there first scan and there is no baby, but there body still making HCG and haveing symptoms... IDK what to think... I wish i could have a scan earlier but they only do them about 8wks Any of you other girls feeling this way, or am i the only one who hasnt seen the baby yet (little bean)

No, you're definitely not the only one feeling that way. I just keep trying to remind myself that the statistics are on our side and the chances of having a healthy baby are higher than the chances of anything going wrong, but I still think I won't relax properly until I have a normal scan.
