December, . Be gentle with yourself, and see you back here very soon!

Mrsmax, sending all my good thoughts for your scan today.

 

[xanzaba]

Mrsmax- good luck, I'll be thinking of you today.

3babes- congratulations, welcome to the board!

 

[mrsmax]

Good news! Heartbeat seen and all looking normal. What a relief! Thanks for all your supporr ladies. Off to bed now with yucky but wonderful morning sickness!

 

[LoraLoo]

So pleased to read this mrsmax- have been thinking of you!

 

[campn]

Mrsmax- Yay glad the little bean is doing great! I also had brown and even red spotting with DS and it was nothing serious.

Ladies so I got the result of the first beta at it was 16,000 at 5+6. She said that's a good number so hopefully everything is okay and we didn't see the baby on the u/s cause it's just early. I've no idea what the numbers mean, I looked up online but it seems like they vary so much.

If someone has more insight I'd greatly appreciate it!

 

[xanzaba]

Yay MsMax!

Campn- those are good, high numbers- high is good, and they're not astronomical. Before 7 weeks it's hard to see much.

 

[Just1more2]

Welcome marlsbar and 3babes!!

Congrats on a good scan Mrsmax! It is such a relief!!

That is a great number campn!!

AFM - Scan at 345 this afternoon. I am both excited and super nervous. Been feeling really great the last 2 days and that scares me. Still nausea here and there but nothing as bad as a I had over the weekend... We shall see!! Wish me luck!

 

[campn]

Thank you ladies, I'm a little relieved. Hopefully the next number is double or close to double!

Just1- good luck hun! I hope you get to see your little one!! Some days I don't feel pregnant at all and other days it's in full effect!

 

[xanzaba]

Campn- don't panic if it does't double. Once you get to a high enough number, it doesn't double every 2 days, more like every 4 days.

 

[campn]

Campn- don't panic if it does't double. Once you get to a high enough number, it doesn't double every 2 days, more like every 4 days.

Yeah I read somewhere that they take longer to double at this level, Just as long as it increases it should be okay then?

The lab tech didn't show up so a nurse had to draw my blood and she couldn't get me to stop bleeding! My vein just kept popping blood, that was a little scary and she had to raise my arm up for a while but I definitely saw my life flashing by

 

[mari35racz36]

Welcome Marlsbar & 3babes! Conratulations and wishing you both a H & H 9 months

Mrsmax - Glad everything went well. So relieved for you

campn - those numbers sound great!! To me its sounds like you are right on track.

Just1more2 - Good luck at your scan today!! Let us know how it goes

AFM - I feel like I could sleep all day if I could. The fatigue is just as hard to deal with as MS for me right now. I don't remember feeling this crazy tired all day with my other pregnancies. Not being able to drink coffee right now probably makes the fatigue worse. lol I stopped taking my nausea pill because they are not making any difference. Any one else feel like January is just dragging on forever?! Bring on Feb and the 2nd tri!! lol How is everyone else today?

 

[lesondemavie]

Hooray mrs! So glad all is well

Mari - The bad MS probably contributes to the fatigue too! And yes, January does seem to be dragging a bit. My first scan on 2/5 can't come soon enough!

Yesterday, smells hit me so bad. The gas station right next to the claim jumper was awful. We'll see if it's the same today. Yesterday I also forced myself to go back to sleep at 5 am after peeling, and then today I slept in until 630! I still fade fast by about 8 pm, so I'm getting about 10 hours of sleep now. Think it helps keep fatigue away during the day. Another day down, another in front of me

 

[campn]

Mari- So sorry about the nausea! Mine also started earlier and worse this time around, I was hoping to be luckier. Drinking coffee is a challenge now but without it I'm so tired and get headaches so I'm just making myself drink it.

Have you been taking naps when your kids take naps? I'm trying to do that more. Sleep when the big babies sleep. January is definitely dragging on which is so weird, I bet it'd go much faster if I wasn't pregnant!

 

[Just1more2]

2 hours girls!! I am so nervous!

 

[gina236]

So my appointment got canceled. They basically told me they won't do anything for me that if I am worried to go to the ER. I made the appointment with a different location so maybe they have different policies per location? Idk. Really annoyed and don't even know where to go from here.

 

[MummaMoo]

Ooh can't wait to hear how it goes Just1! Lots of luck!!

Wish I could drink coffee to give myself a boost, hot drinks just haven't sat well with me so am avoiding them for now. No actual throwing up for the last 3 days though so hopefully it's on the way out.
Sophie had her review with the health visitor today, which went well, she was impressed with her vocab and her overall development so that's reassuring. My little baby is 2 tomorrow! Eeeek!

Got my booking in appointment come through, finally! Not til the 11th Feb though, first scan is on the 17th Feb... seems sooooooo far away!!

 

[psychochick]

mumma: oo happy early birthday to your LO!

gina: hmm that's super frustrating.. Can't they at least confirm pregnancy with their own urine test? If ur in the US, Planned parenthood will perform a urine test for free I believe, and you don't need an appointment for that. But other than that, I think unless you have a confirmed history of risky pregnancy, even my hospital won't do anything else unless I'm bleeding. I researched to get betas done around me and seriously came up with nothing.

mrsmax: yay congrats! time to sit back and relax

campn: From what i've read on here, that number at 6w is great! When's your next U/S?

Just1more: good luck. Hehe I scheduled my U/S for the earliest slot available in the morning precisely because I didn't want to be a ball of nerves for too many hours that day.

leson: I'm the same: one day at a time. Different symptoms to varying degrees everyday.

Think I'm experiencing some nausea at the end of meals, which makes me need to stop eating right away. But I feel better after a while. Then when I get hungry I seriously turn into a zombie. My brain's just flashing food, food, food. Guess my body's forcing me to have small meals frequently.

 

[mrsmax]

Just1 loads of luck! Mummamoo congrats on lil one turning two tomorrow and great news on her development.

 

[Just1more2]

mumma: oo happy early birthday to your LO!


Just1more: good luck. Hehe I scheduled my U/S for the earliest slot available in the morning precisely because I didn't want to be a ball of nerves for too many hours that day.

Ugh! I did have it scheduled for 9am this morning, but DH couldn't get out of work at that time, so I had to change it! Oh well, hopefully so worth the wait!!

Hi ladies newbie here! I'm due September 4th with #2. DD turned 2 in October! congrats everyone x

Added!! Welcome!!
