My MS has not been so bad the last couple of days. Today though I have had evening sickness

 

[Oasis717]

I was getting it from 2pm onwards but now it's pretty much all day! Xxx

 

[dancareoi]

Phew, what a morning.

Secondary school offers came out today and have been on edge for days waiting. Our DS got his first choice school, one of the Birmingham Grammer Schools. We are so pleased.

Thats good Lisa. A relief for you. Glad things went ok Becks now try to relax. My blood tests were LH 8.2 and FSH 33.1. They say they are normal but what do the numbers mean. Are they good?

 

[Oasis717]

Thanks fantastic news Lisa, I bet you are all thrilled xxx
Jo if they say they're normal that's really good, I'm good with hcg and progesterone numbers but I don't know much about lh or fsh, have you tried googling to see what the normal levels should be? Xxx

Afternoon Ladies

Dance - Oh my secondary school that's when you know they are growing up - the first term my eldest was fine by the second term he knew it all - including where babies came from

Josie - If they said they said they are normal that's great - I know more about HCG levels and progesterone numbers too but I do know if the LH is higher than FSH level that could indicate PCOS - but yours is not so

Mine last year was something like this FSH 25 LH 7.7 prog level 1.0 so there was some doubt whether I ovulated that month - from my charts I could have given them the answer NO!

Is your doc going to repeat the test in a couple of weeks mine did and the numbers changed again - still within normal values.

I then decided to carry on charting and not bother having bloods done again until 4 months later I had my prog level checked it was 76!!! deff Od and by my chart possibility of pregnancy - the doc said to early blah blah but I was right she was wrong

Will you be also having your prog level checked - to check for Ovulation.

Oasis - Did you manage to get your leg sorted yesterday - so the sickness has got worse is it just nausea (although that can be as bad)

Crazymam - I'm Garfie - I joined a few days ago, I am 42 in August and want just one ickle baby with my new(ish) young(er) hubbybut it seems to much to ask and time is ticking before we stop

[Oasis717]

No hun, well yes in a way that I had to go back to docs yest and they just said the pain can be severe, dont I know it! And it can take 6 weeks to go yes it's the nausea, last three days it's been unbearable then today. Nothing! Yet anyway lol. I want to eat everything in sight today which is not the norm, have lost 3lb so far instead of putting on but mw said that's fine in the first trimester, all I want today is egg salad sandwiches, and chicken Korma, I am literally dying for a Korma!! Xxxx

 

[josie1234]

I am getting my prog blood test done on 7 mar. So see what that shows. I am feeling ok today not as stressed about it all like last month. Hope you are all ok. How long you been trying Garfie. Hi Becks hope you are not raiding the cupboards lol.

 

[garfie]

Oasis - I hope you got a dog you can blame on the egg sandwiches oh and if you manage to get it the curry too

Seriously though make sure you cook the eggs really well

[dancareoi]

Glad everyone is doing ok. I am desperate for a chicken tikka masala but can't because of the diabetes, but I am going to have a dhansak tomorrow.

We had another scan today and measuring exactly right, our little butter bean was moving all over the place.

The risk of MC is now 1 in 200, no greater than later in Pg, but we can't get our heads around that yet, due to our late loss las year.

Dating scan at hosp nex Friday, will book a private nuchal scan for the following wee and back at hosp I was at today, in 3 weeks time for another scan. They will see me up until 20 weeks if that's what we want!

Need to try and relax now!

 

[josie1234]

Thats good Lisa. You are getting really looked after. Good luck for Friday xx

 

[Oasis717]

Yes that's brill Lisa, so so pleased for you!! Xxx
I've got a king Charles spaniel called Teddy lol, so Garfie I could blame him but I think oh is getting used to my gas now! Still no sickness today, hate it when its here do nothing but worry when its not, and dh is really ill today, he's been sick 7 times so far, praying I don't get it whatever it is, off out in the cold now to pick up ds from pre school xxxx

 

[josie1234]

Just spoke to doctor and apparantely the receptionist was wrong. My hormones werent normal. Looks like i am not ovulating. Doc said they ate waiting for the testosterone results which should take 2 weeks. But to carry on as we are BD until then. Fed up. Dont get it particularly when i had pos opks last month. Well will carry on but feeling upset at the mo.
