Mommy-Sorry ms is kicking ur ass, it makes life tough when it doesn't let up. It sounds like ur dr is being proactive which is great. This waiting game is driving me nuts.
Ren-something is catching my eye on that bottom test. U r still super early but I have everything crossed!!!!
Bab-i have my everything crossed for u too! It would be so awesome if we could all just move forward with the pg stage. I'm glad u r feeling better and back on the ttc train.
Perse-My symptoms weren't consistent until 7+ weeks. I hope the ms isn't too bad but it means things are good.
Mrs-Those pics are so cute! Love, love love!
I hope I didn't miss anyone?
Afm-I eat as soon as I get up and keep putting food in my body every couple of hours so I can maintain the ms and it seems to be working. I didn't a couple of days ago and felt soo sick and dizzy. Really I feel a lot better than I did with dd and more like I did with ds. I am so freakin tired I feel like I haven't slept in weeks.
Still no luck on the doppler even though I thought I caught something last night but it was gone as quick as it came. I'm trying to space out my usage.

Hi everyone!

I don't think I caught it this month. No symptoms at all now :/ oh well.
But there will be babies in my house VERY SOON!
My guinea pig that I adopted last month is pregnant and at the VERY end of her pregnancy!
The lady I got her from had left her in a mixed group of males and females and unfortunately it looks like she was knocked up!
It feels like she has two in there and they are pretty active! I gave her some celarie and the babies were kicking around like crazy!
I am scared to death of her giving birth so i really hope all goes well.
She is an awesome guinea pig and calls for me EVERY time she sees me she gets pretty spoiled lol

 

[Mommy_DK]

Ren- that looks like a positive to me ...?!? Your appointment is a day before mine , have you retested ?


Bab- Do you have a testing date or are you just waiting around playing it by ear until you have symptoms? Congrats on the guinea pig babies!!!!

Pers I am so so sleepy too! I slept half the day yesterday and all day until about 6pm today..... I feel like I have chronic fatigue , or sleep patterns like an infant so weird. I'm going to ask my dr about what I can do about it , maybe it's my diet too

Anybody else tired all day ? I could probably be in bed all week long if I didn't have kids to tend to! I have one other friend who sleeps a lot but I think hers is due to depression

Mommy, I did, I have a darker thin line on the test this morning that the husband can see now. Once it turns thick and pink I'll phone the doc. I would be embarassed to go in for bloods if this is an evap. I want to be sure.

Mrs burch wow good memory on the symptoms. I still can't sleep through the night at all now needing to pee. I had to nap today this afternoon. Hoping that these don't go away and aren't just from progesterone! Wish me happy puking ladies!!

Babbs I hope you did catch this month anyway! How neat that she is about to give birth. I hope everything goes ok.

Ready, glad you can keep,eating small meals frequently That was about the only thing that ever helped me.

This is today so for sure darker just still thin. I have to really squint to see it at BnB resolution but it is super obvious high def. still, I am thinking evap.

[BABTTC123]

Mommy- Its all those hormones!
And I hope she is fine! She is 2 and guinea pigs shouldn't breed after 8 months apparently...

Ren- I can see it!!! Fx it gets nice and dark as you get closer to af due date!

 

[ZoranaC]

Hi Everyone, I have had blue veins on my breasts, going towards my nipples for a few days now. There is also one large vein on each side of my abdomen going all the way down to my lower stomach and pelvis, where it spreads into little branches. My arms also have veins!! I have never had this before. My breasts feel fuller than usual.

I was supposed to get my AF today, I tested this morning but


Me and my husband have been trying for a couple of months, could I be pregnant?

 

[BABTTC123]

Zorana- It can take a while for a bfp to show on tests even with an frer The only way to know for sure would be a blood hcg draw. Fx for you!

 

[ZoranaC]

I hope it's that! I hate seeing a
do the doctors do a blood test if you ask? or just urine?
xx

 

[BABTTC123]

mine required me to have blood tests, but that is because I was on clomid.
But I am sure that if you ask then they will do it. It's not like it's any skin off of their bones.

 

[ReadynWaiting]

Ren-that line doesn't look thin to me! I am hoping and praying that this is it. Puke girl puke!!!! So sadistic...lol.
Bab-no symptoms meant bfp for me. Every other month I had symptoms. Fx'd!!
Mommy-I wake up in the am and feel like I haven't slept, i drag my ass and have a nap when dd does at 1230 and usually sleep the whole time and then watch the clock until bedtime at 8! I'm freakin exhausted! !!

 

[BABTTC123]

Ready- I hope so! But at the same time I don't think it will happen. Hubby wasn't feeling well this week so we missed out on dtd for 4-5 days

So I am sensing that Snickers, my guinea, is pretty darn close to popping! Yesterday all she wanted to do was lay around until the evening. Normally she is extremely active during the day. But even last night she was lazier than her normal self and didn't feel up to begging for attention as she normally would do every time she could see and hear me lol
She has stopped eating and drinking as much and from previous experience with Breeding dogs, I know that some animals will get nauseas close to labor and won't eat or drink as much and it will decrease up until they give birth!
So hopefully she has them soon! I got today off due to lack of work available and I have Wednesdays off now. Fx that she has them while I'm home!

Btw... Sorry for my Guinea pig talk. I just figure that if I can't have a baby right now then I will enjoy this surprise (as long as it goes well) and cuddle baby piggies instead :3

 

[Renaendel]

Woot woot, I can't wait to see a picture of your little mamma and her babies. That IS exciting babbs.

ready, sorry you are so tired. Thank goodness you can do your nap time with the kiddo.

Another night of not sleeping through the night. The line on the test is a little thicker today and I had my temp dip. I don't think it is dark enough yet to call the doc for bloods quite yet. I know all to well how quickly these can go away.

 

[ReadynWaiting]

Bab-we had a hamster when we were kids that had babies. They were sooo tiny!
Ren-I see that. Hopefully it doesn't go away and just gets darker.
I'm used to the tired feeling but was answering Mommys question about being tired. Im trying to just go with everything and not complain too much. My symptoms are quite manageable compared to dd. I have 9 days until I see the mw.

 

[BABTTC123]

Ready- I just realized that you only have 6 weeks before you see the gender!! Ah!! I am super excited about this xD I am sticking to my first guess that it is a little boy!
My sister had some hamsters breed before but the momma didn't make it
For guinea pigs, they are naturally high risk #_# so that is where my fears come in play...
You should google baby guinea pig pics! They come out all ready to go with fur, eyes open, able to walk AND they can start eating solid food within days if being born! But they do still nurse for a week or two just to get that added help
I still have some multianimal formula sitting around that I can use if they need some help.

Ren- I still see that line!! Personally, I would be going in right away xD but then again I seem to expect that the doctors will know how to make that baby stick lol
But you are so darn early a bad are seeing this line that it must be a good sign!!
Oh and of course I will post pics of the babies when they arrive! :3

[Renaendel]

Per your instructions, I googled them. Ohh my gosh, sooo cute. They look just like mama but tinier. Maybe if she only has two it will be safer for her.

I try never to say this because I don't want to jinx myself but I do feel pregnant this month. Either that or I have a bladder infection because it has shrunk to the size of a pea. Ugh, why isn't this day over so I can pee again. The second I have a line that might not be confused for an evap I am going in.

I just told hubbs and this was his Skype back to me.. So in love..
"Ohh. My"

[Mommy_DK]

Ren- I'm hoping it stays!!! But it looks like it's getting darker!!!

Ready- Same here I don't want to complain too much and trying to just be grateful and enjoy, but I was starting to get a little concerned because it seems a little chronic and don't remember being this tired at all with DDS or ds But I'll float with it and try tweaking my diet some and see if anything changes. I was lol reading about how you watch the clock! I nap with dd too , it's good to know its not just me!

Bab- I don't mind the piggie stories! I loved my little piggie when I had him . Are you feeling ok? Have you had af yet?

Sorry I'm skipping around right now , be back in soon!

My appointment with the genetic counsellors is on Wednesday I'm hoping they do the blood draw same day

 

[ReadynWaiting]

Ren-I actually started with a bladder infection (or so I thought) and the urge to pee has subsided only slightly in the last week as far as not getting up at night. I so hope this is it for u!
Mommy-I think with the 1st u r a little oblivious to symptoms but as each subsequent pg happens u r acutely aware. Plus u r chasing 2 other children while growing another. The days that I miss my nap by 7pm my eyes r burning and body is sooo sluggish.
I'm hoping in a few wks I'll get a surge of energy back.

 

[Mrs. Burch]

Hey girlies!!!
Ren-I am so hoping this is it for you!! Keep us posted, did you poas today? Lets see it!!
Ready and Mommy- I was so tired and I don't already have kids that I was chasing around. I look forward to 9 every night to go to bed at an "acceptable" time. I have more energy now in the 2nd tri then before so hoping you gals get it back soon. Mommy let us know how the apt goes today. Ready getting close to your next scan!!

Bab-can't wait to see pics of the little babies!! I hope you are home too when she gives birth, that would be pretty cool to see. I had no signs for my bfp either so sometimes no signs are a good thing.

AFM-I think I am feeling little kicks occasionally from Bristol, not too often but here and there. My next apt is the 18th and we get to see her again, two weeks from today. Glad to see you all are doing well. Fx for a few more bfp in here!!

 

[Renaendel]

Mrs burch: Wow she is big enough to start feeling kicks? Way to go Bristol! How exciting. I can't wait until the 18th for you.

Ready, thanks for the heads up on the bladder infection. That makes me feel better. I really don't want this jinxed. You are right, just a few weeks andyou should be getting your energy back.

Babbs, I am officially reporting here for guinea pig baby watch! Are there things you can set up in her cage now to ease her birth?

 

[Renaendel]

Ugh I hit reply and I wasn't done!

Mommy! I'll be thinking about you in Wesnesday. Hope it all goes perfectly and they can do that blood draw on the same day.

AFM, tests are driving me batty. Darker again but still not enough for me to feel like I can go in. I do think it is darker today and thicker, but who knows. Ohh I hope I didn't jinx it with all my tiny bladder talk. Stick eggies stick!
