Summer Sensations! (due May/June 2013)

[raelynn]

Getting - I was totally considering using another ic test today just for peace of mind. I told myself to hold out until next week since it'll be hard to get through.

Almost - Is your first scan Thursday too? That is when mine is and I just know it'll crawl by especially since work has been pretty stressful lately.

For those of you still with an RE, have you called your obgyn yet or waiting until the RE releases you? I think I might wait until after my scan just to make sure everything is all good and then call my obgyn.

stop ladies you are making me want to poa frer!! lol

and rae mine is thursday like you!! i have monday off from work so we will see if that speeds up the week at all or not...i have to miss 2 hours of work for my apt. also-i made my ob prenatal apt for 8 weeks-wanted to make sure i got in on time they are having my have my dr fax over my US and beta results so i wont be getting a 8 week scan, just 7 for now!

I made my 8week appointment with my new obgyn too. I didn't want to chance not getting in on time. Plus I can always cancel if -god forbid - something should go wrong.

I haven't made an appointment yet. I want to wait to see how my scan turns out. I know my beta numbers were good but I'm still not convinced so I want to see how Monday goes then I'll call around and find a new OB. I'm going to see if the clinic has someone they can recommend for the hospital I want to deliver in.

I was in Walmart yesterday and totally had to convince myself to NOT buy some tests. I want to POAS so bad to convince me my sweetpea is still growing.

My first appointment is two days before my seven week scan, I'm with a specialist and get seen every two weeks and get scans often

good job avoiding poas christie!!!

So....I seem to have had some brown spotting since earlier today Nothing when I wipe now though and no cramps or anything so I'm hoping it's nothing to worry about. I know theoretically spotting is common at this stage but it's hard to think logically when it's actually happening. Gonna have to poas again tomor morning...

 

[raelynn]

Getting - I know it is hard but you're right, spotting is normal at this stage especially if it is brown and not bright red. I know it is so hard not to worry though. It seems that is all we do this early on.

 

[PRAYIN4BABIES]

So glad to see everyone doing well I want to see pics of everyones little beans!!!!

 

[Christie2011]

Getting I understand your concern, but agree with Rae. I was concerned when I spotted the first week after transfer and knew it could absolutely be implantation spotting. Still us mommies will always worry about our little ones. Stay strong!

 

[almosthere]

fx your fine getting, i think you are!

 

[Lulu 07]

Hello Ladies!! I'm so sorry I went MIA but my DH was feeling generous and decided to share his flu/cold with me. I was feeling icky and congested for a few days but i feel much better today. I hope all you wonderful mommies are doing well!!

Prayin ~ I'm so sorry about your loss.. It really broke my heart! Your next BFP is right around the corner and it will bring you your forever baby. I love that you've stayed super strong and positive throughout this!

 

[Lulu 07]

Broody ~ You will be just fine just don't stress yourself out.

Forgot to mention that I did my 3rd beta at 21dpo and it came back at 4594!

 

[TwoRdue]

Wow do you have three in there Lulu

 

[Lulu 07]

Haha.. I hope not!!

 

[TwoRdue]

That is a great number, mine was 2705 at 21dpo and the nurse is sitting g on the fence about twins and you are double that.

I actually thought my beta was somewhat in the normal range but I guess it is on the higher side. We'll find out on Tuesday how many little beans are in there. I can't wait!!

 

[GettingBroody]

Thanks girls Only a very small bit of spotting last night but think it was mostly some left over blood being cleared out by the progesterone pessary (tmi!) None today so far but still so nervous. I rang my clinic but there's obviously no receptionist on duty on Sundays. In case of emergencies they said to call the local maternity hospital who will then make contact with them but I don't think this counts as an emergency... Dh wants me to ring my mum because she's a doctor but I know there's nothing she can do and then she'll just be worried too... So I think I'm just going to rest up for the day and try to not stress. Usually go walking with a group of friends and all our dogs on Sunday mornings but I've sent dh on his own today just in case. Now I feel like I should have gone cos sitting here thinking isn't doing me any good either! Tuesday really really can't come fast enough now! Even if I have no more spotting for the rest of the day I don't think I'll be able to relax til I actually see something on that screen! Sorry for the essay girls!!!!! Thanks for reading!

Hi ladies, I am so dizzy waking up and if I get up too fast I get these horrid pounding headaches, but they are short lived thank goodness....anyone else feel dizzy and almost like they won't be able to eat breakfast in the mornings? I do eat to try to make myself feel better!

Also, how much folic acid are you all taking? I am taking 2mg so 800 is that normal??
