September Snugglers 2016

[InVivoVeritas]

Luv, I hope so! I did it in the evening at exactly 4 weeks -- I'd had some spotting and I wanted the reassurance.

xanzaba, I'm with you. I have no reason to feel positive after an afternoon of spotting/bleeding, but I'm determined that this pregnancy will go well.

mari, I think it depends on how active you were before and whether yours is a high-risk pregnancy. I wouldn't shovel a drive, but then I miscarry at the drop of a hat. So long as you didn't feel as though you were straining yourself and you didn't get out of breath/overheated then I'd say you're fine.

Welcome to the new ladies on here!

Still not many symptoms here except crazy dreams and very hormonal. It's funny those of us without symptoms want them and those with symptoms don't want them! I never thought I would want to feel sick!! I remember having nausea with both my boys so I feel a bit worried as to why I haven't got it now.

I have my 7 week scan at midday tomorrow, it can't come soon enough!

 

[hopie2015]

xan- what a great idea! I was thinking I should become that way too. Okay- even though with the low prog. level I don't have much reason to be optimistic, I am jumping on this band wagon with you. Let's do it!

Mari- you are a trooper - shoveling snow! How about you don't the rest of the winter, k? I jsut did one of my usual workout shows and it took the life out of me..I'm back in bed! I hope the extreme ms is easing up a bit now. I usually love tea but haven't been able to drink it.

L- such an adorable banner..thank you! I hope you found your wallet safely at work today. Baby brain does seem to start early.

Inviv- good to know on the progest. and ms.. thank you. Great attitude! As I'm sure your doctor told you, mine said not to worry about spotting (brown or pink) unless it turns bright red.

Mumm and msmax- can you call your doctor to ask her about the sharp pain? Maybe she will want you to come in, just to make sure. I'm not quite sure of ectopic symptoms. My dr. did tell her to call if I ever have pain, so I would give a call just to be safe.
Mumma- 'no thank you' (to twins) LOLL! ditto

x- the dreams are CRAZY. Omg. beyond bizarre last night during my crazy 12 hours of sleep. I guess we should all just enjoy it.. It's like going to the movies for free every night!

New ladies!! You have been added to page one. If you have not given an EDD, let me know what it is when you can so I can take you out of the TBD category!!

Hope - Thank you for the "hope"! I am glad the doctors have good news for you and that the progesterone works to keep that baby sticky!!

Good luck to the ladies with appointments coming up!! it is so exciting!

AFM - 7 weeks tomorrow!!! Bloody nose this morning out of nowhere. Same other symptoms as usual. Scan in 2 weeks!! I will be so glad to see what is going on in there!

 

[mrs unicorn]

Xan that's a great idea - I'm totally on board! I'm loving it at the mo, I only have light symptoms, just light nausea in the mornings. I had to go and buy some new bras today, x2 cup sizes bigger!! (although my C cup was snug) I'm loving the changes to my body already even if my boobs do ache! I also ended up buying some baby clothes, couldn't resist. I've been so desparate to buy things since TTC but haven't, I really wanted to try and wait till I was pregnant. They were all so gorgeous I wanted it all, I'm going to have to show some restraint! << me in the baby clothes section! I also have started to have little emotional outbursts. When shopping for bras I thought 'I am actually pregnant, we're gona have a baby soon' and a few tears came.

 

[dreamer1316]

Hello lovely ladies hope I can join you here! I got my bfp yesterday! Very excited but scared too as its before my AF due. Fertility friend is giving me a due date of 26th September - hope I will be a September snuggler!

Emma! Hiya love!! So excited to see you here! Congratulations! As you know I had bfps 5 days before af was due and just kept testing until she wasn't, that helped. Try to stay relaxed. X

Hi! Thank you I followed you over lol I am doing the same with keeping on testing - I'm very worried about a cp. my test this morning was lighter but then this evening it's darker again, phew! X

 

[campn]

Today's test at 17 DPO, it's looking like a positive ovulation test now! I'm still a little bit scared, I seriously run to the bathroom to check for AF, but I'm officially late now.

How are you all feeling!? Has it hit you yet!?

 

[MummaMoo]

Campn - that is a beautiful test! Feel well and truly reassured with that!

Hope - I *could* call the docs about the pain, but I'm pretty sure they would just tell me it's just ligaments/muscles moving to make room for the upcoming few months. I'm worrying less about it now. Trying to get on board with the positivity!

 

[xanzaba]

I think this mind-over-matter thing might be working! MS has been manageable all day, and I think part of the reason is that when I ask "Is it reasonable to eat lunch at 10:45?", I think "Anything is reasonable if it makes me feel good!". Some of the bloat seems to have gone down too, I'm wearing formal pants and they aren't even snug I'm getting stuff done at work. Must be Friday

 

[LoraLoo]

Great line campn!

Definitely not sunk in here yet. Don't think it will until we (fingers crossed) see a little heartbeat.

 

[mari35racz36]

Hey ladies, MS is still really strong today. Just been eating little bites every so often. I've been sipping on water throughout the day. Thanks for all the advice on shovelling the snow. I didn't feel out of breath or tired at all. But my lower back is a bit more sore than yesterday. My hubby wants me to leave all the snow shovelling to him now. Lol

 

[hopie2015]

Mari- that is a great husband! Glad you're getting in small bites and lots of water. I've been able to keep food down now for 24 hours. All i eat is plain pasta. Water is still tough.
All of you are doing great with xan's plan. I love it! It is helping me too. I've gotta be honest..I'm not confident in my results next week but I think the positive thinking is helping a lot and I just get to enjoy this pregnancy while I have it. Also like said, it helps with the nausea. I also think of people going through chemo, etc who have such terrible nausea. Putting everything into perspective. And I swear Mari- try the acupressure point on your wrist (google pressure point for nausea). I think it's been working! (supposed to work the same way sea bands do).

Onward and upward!

Thanks leson for introducing me to this group Good for you for keeping fit still! I have trouble exercising these days, muscles feel easily sore and tired. But I'm determined to keep fit and do the exercises I used to do. Maybe just make it shorter or lighter but more frequent.

hopie: Thanks. Don't worry, I'm not easily scared My mother supposedly had a really difficult time with me because she already had stomach problems before conceiving and the MS of course made it way worse, but she said that it was weird that on the day after the first trimester was over, the MS COMPLETELY disappeared. Guess I'm a punctual baby I really hope your nausea lets up or your doc has a solution for you. Ginger gum and dramamine are my gotos for nausea but not sure if they would help during pregnancy. Maybe I'll get to experiment if the time comes for me.

I haven't read through everyone's post yet, will catch up soon. I'm personally checking underwear and TP like a crazy person since AF is due today or tomorrow and I'm just really afraid I'll have a repeat chemical like last cycle. Guess it'll be like this for a while until I can actually get a scan.

 

[lesondemavie]

Psy, I'm still constantly checking TP and underwear now 2 weeks after AF was due. It's still so surreal!

 

[MummaMoo]

Same here, every time things down there feel a bit "squidgy", I have to go check!

Welcome and congratulations!!!! Wishing you a H&H 9 months

I am still checking underwear and TP everytime i go as well. Lol AF was due Dec29!! I just worry a lot.

 

[mari35racz36]

Hopie- thanks for the tip about accupuncture. I will look it up I've never had a day like this before. My nausea is the worst and those fatigue is really bad today. I've already throw up a few times. I would love to just go and curl up I bed!! Hope you are doing ok

 

[hopie2015]

ditto exactly, Mari and af was due 12/29!

So sorry you have ms so bad today too. I just talked to my dr. office again and they are going to admit me to hospital if I want to go tomorrow for 2 days treatment..it has been so bad the past few hours I cant take it anymore and will need iv for dehydration.
Hoping you feel better this evening!

Wow pc, your mom sure had it rough. This whole experience really makes me in awe of mothers even more, what they go through having their kids.
Wishing you all the luck in the world to you!

 

[Michellebelle]

I've had some really light nausea today, but mostly just the feel like nothing really sounds good to eat. So still no full blown MS yet, which does worry me a little. I'll know for sure at my scan on Monday if there's a healthy baby growing in there.

Just enjoying each day though! I feel much more confident about this pregnancy than I did with either or my MCs. With both of those I knew pretty early that something wasn't right, but so far so good this time!

 

[Michellebelle]

Hopie, I hope you start feeling better soon! Sorry you're feeling so awful.
