With dd my first scan was at 6+5 and I saw everything and a hb.

 

[Mommy_DK]

Maybe too early but I remember seeing the kids on the scans early on. If it is going to be a mc or ectopic I wish it would just do whatever it's going to do so I can move on!

 

[Renaendel]

Holy crap babbs! It is your month too! I am so so happy for you!!!

Mommydk, I hope it is just super early like five weeks. Betas would tell the complete story in four days rather than a few weeks. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Yay Persephone, welcome back. Welcome to the middle of your Tww. I think I am just four days ahead of you.

 

[Mommy_DK]

I'm hoping they can get me in to do blood rather than two weeks to go back for a scan, I am in a little depression mode right now, this sucks.

Babs- how's it going?? What did dr say? I am patiently waiting for your answers , prayers up



P.s my appetite has gone down, I was extreemly hungry last week and now I'm just Blah.

 

[Mrs. Burch]

Bab-so glad u called the dr! Good thinkin! When will you go for bloods? Keep us updated!!

Mommy-I'm praying it's just too early. I'd call you dr and let them know what took place they should get you in soon with that info.

Ready-tomorrow is the day!!!! Can't wait to see pics!!

Afm-dr apt was just regular apt. Went over blood work results and listened to heart beat. 155-160! So I moved up the gender apt to Jan 20th!!! I can't wait!!!

So funny story, so I bought a Doppler and we have listened to the hb like every other night. Well I've found it on my left side close to my pelvic bone kind of. So we hear the hb today and it doesn't sound like what we hear every other night. So come to find out I've been listening to my pulse, not the baby's hb I've been in the wrong spot!! Dying with embarrassment. Only me!!

 

[Mommy_DK]

Lol Mrs Don't feel bad I did it with mine too! With our 3rd baby I bought one.... I don't think they were in stores with my two oldest. Have you found the right spot? 155+ is a girl! Lol yay 130 - is boy congrats momma

 

[persephone13]

Thanks everyone! I've been having mad cramping all evening on my left side so maybe the little alien is burying in deep tonight. According to FF I'm 10dpo today. But that's very loose as I wasn't temping this month.

Mommy-I say get bloods drawn and you will know what's going on. Like i said before i used those tests and had lines like that before 5 wks.
Perse-Can't wait until you test, things sound good.
Mrs-I say girl too! Dd had a high hb the whole time while ds was quite a bit lower. Only a few wks and u can find out.
Ren-Have you tested again?

I was thinking if buying tests at dollarama but 11dpo is probably too early for them....

 

[Mommy_DK]

Pers- I would try! For sure , or atleast go and get two or three, never hurts to have extras for later use, prayers going up

Ready- I'll take you up on getting bloods, I bet you're right maybe I'm sooner than 5 weeks . I didn't know you could have such dark lines so early

 

[BABTTC123]

So I went in for bloods todag and they said hcg will be back tomorrow and progesterone at the latest by Friday
I got my results back from the 31st and my progesterone was 15.34 (Or some odd number after the 15 lol) Sooo obviously I had a good ovulation? Or am I reading into that wrong??
Have been having some STRONG cramps off and on today as if that bean is saying "I'm here to stay!"

mommy- You may be pretty early into the pregnancy! One of my friends is only 4 weeks along and looks like she is carrying twins but she only has one baby! The reason why she looks so big already is because, apparently, you show earlier with each pregnancy. Makes it a pretty good early symptom if ya ask me! :3

Ren- when will you be testing again??

pers- I took a cheapy along with the frer today and it shows a very line as well. I have heard that the dollar store tests are pretty good

Mrs- I hope this is a little girl for you!! Then you won't have to stress for the next one!

ready- Your scan is tomorrow!!!
Are you excited???

To everyone else, I will have to get to you all later. This cold is kicking my butt!!

 

[Mommy_DK]

Bab- I wish I had a for sure answer as to why no sac showed and no baby is showing because just from reading and the nurses lack of info it could be 5 diff things. Ready says to get blood so I am going to try to do that ASAP. This is just so frustraighting. I also read chemical pregnancies can make you look and feel pregnant /: as far as your numbers I am useless in that department I've never gotten numbers checked but I bet those cramps were signs from your bean letting you know he's getting comfy, did the dr do blood only today?

Ready- What is your scan for tomorrow? I must have missed that, I'm so glad you're being seen now . Do you like this dr so far?

I feel like a freakin medical mystery! Why can't this just be as simple as dtd and have children with my dh ? Now that we're married and doing it the right way it's difficult but when we weren't married and I was far from settled down living a wild child life style I could get pg by looking at dh ?! I don't know how much more I can take.....trying to stay calm but this is just making me nuts.

 

[BABTTC123]

mommy- I agree with Ready that a blood test should confirm it!
And didn't you say the person didn't seem to know what they were doing?
That very well could be! They probably were looking for an obvious baby and not the sac xD
I would request a different radiologist (is that what they are?) next time!

 

[Renaendel]

Each doctor is different babbs. Mine says above 10 is sufficient. Though my understanding is that most RE's want 15 or higher for medicated cycles. I am testing daily because of my ectopic history. I don't think I have a chance this month. My BFPs have all been in the 7-11 day range and tests at 12 are very very blank.

I am totally ok with this. I was really sick with influenza this month and I am pretty happy honestly that I don't have to worry about pregnancy on top of the flu. But I tell you I am going to be wanting that October baby!

 

[BABTTC123]

Hell yeah!! You better get that baby!! I've always thought that it would be awesome to be born on Halloween :3 the parties would be soo much fun!

 

[ReadynWaiting]

Bab-Will you have repeat bloods drawn if hcg is present? I am excited but also very nervous. I am praying for a hb but steeling myself for the worst.
Mommy-Do u have to make an appt for bloods or do u just go in? In canada you have to get your dr to do it or give u a req to go to a lab. My scan is a dating scan but I asked my mw if I could get in early as Ive had an ectopic before and am concerned. She was going to do it around 4wks but i rescheduled after 6cweeks so i could see a hb. Normally u don't go until 12 wks.

 

[Mommy_DK]

Ready- I am hoping ectopic isn't the case for either of us! Do you have any symptoms ? I Woke up feeling really dizzy and last week I had horrible stomach pains and it hurt during my bowel movements. I may need to report this and be seen ASAP just to be safe. I'm making an appointment to try to get bloods done with my specialist since I'm in the middle of switching drs. Good luck today honey ! Keep us updated

Bab- Any word from your dr yet? I know you won't get some of the results in until Friday but maybe heard about the others today? I think it is a radiologist I keep calling them sonographhers...? More than likely I'm wrong ! But she wasn't very thorough so she may have missed something. Hopefully someone can get me in and do bloods right away

Ren- Feel better soon, I wanted an October babe too, super fun birthday parties and he/She would be here Just in time to enjoy holidays with us

 

[BABTTC123]

Ready- I think so.. My doctor had said that she would probably put me on progesterone pills just in case.
Fx all looks amazing today!!

mommy- I won't find out until later today lol it is only 6:00am here xD
Hurry up and get that appointment made for bloods!

afm- I mucked up and peed about an hour before I had to get up. Didn't think at all about testing then :/
still tried testing when I got up but my urine was clear and the cheapies showed up as negative.
I hope that is all that was wrong.
Well I am ending up staying home today because this cold I have wouldn't let me sleep at all. I have been coughing all night!
I tried vics vaporub on my back, chest and feet, i have taken cough syrup, I have water by my bed to help ease the coughing but it just won't go away!!!
This is the second time in a month or so that I have gotten sick this bad! I just want to be healthy :'( lol

 

[persephone13]

Okay! I'm going to dollarama to pick up some tests!

 

[ReadynWaiting]

Mommy-I have had symptoms just not like with dd which makes me wonder. My boobs have been sore, waves of nausea that almost feels like motion sickness, headaches, frequent peeing. I go in 3 hrs and my nerves are getting the better of me.
Bab-an hr hold and cheapie tests are not a good mix. The ics and dollar store tests are ok but they sick early on. I hope u feel better soon.
Perse-Have u poas yet????????
Mommy-bloods drawn yet?
Smommy-How r u holding out?
