Welcome to the ttc in fall group..........AUTUMN ACORNS!!!!

[MackMomma8]

You girls are the best!! I'm already looking forward to this cycle... ordering some OPKs today!!

 

[ttcbabyw1]

ttcbabyw1 - has your spotting stopped?

Yes. Thanks for asking. All seems back to normal. Still feeling like hurling/actually hurling on a regular/semi-regular basis. I think it just freaks you out to see any kind of blood when you are pregnant. Even though it was only a teeny tiny bit....I was still worried. Think I'm back to being (mostly) calm!

 

[Mrs_T]

Yay! Congrats Miss Redknob! Such exciting news!

MM I've also got a feeling its gunna be ur time soon!

 

[mouse_chicky]

It's a little early, but in case you'll be away, Happy Thanksgiving to US girls!

Well got my HCG results they were 23 for 10dpo..Does anyone know if this is good or not??

 

[babynewbie]

I havent got a clue sorry hun

 

[Miss Redknob]

Where is everyone?? I am at work (night shift) and bored out of my brain.

 

[BabyMaybe917]

It's just past noon here... time for lunch.

No idea on the HCG I think the main thing is that it continues increasing. You are so early still!!!

 

[Miss Redknob]

Noon!! It is 5:30am (23/11/11) here

Having another blood test today, hoping it doubles..

As far as I understand it, there is no "this is good" number and "this is bad" number.. it's completely about the doubling. Buuut, I'm no expert, and I never had this done, so my understanding just comes from pokings around here. GL!

Never had it tested. I don't think it's as common in the US as it is abroad; at least that's the impression I get from these forums.

Oh ok. Here in Australia they do a blood test when you get a positive HPT and then they repeat it in a few days.

Girls, nesting has totally kicked in, lol. We have an open floor plan where the kitchen and dining areas are hardwood and the den area is carpet. Only, the carpet has gotten dingy-ish because of the dogs. So, hormonal and slightly irrational me has decided that baby cannot possibly be crawling around on the carpet, and now all of it is being ripped up to be replaced by hardwoods in two weeks.

That of course meant we needed a rug, which meant I needed new curtains because I couldn't find any rugs that seemed to match well with what we have.. and while I was redecorating, I decided to have DH build us some shelves so I had places to decorate and accessorize..Oh, and the baby will mean an influx of visitors, and our Ikea chairs didn't feel "sophisticated" or comfortable enough, so we went and bought new ones that will be delivered on the 10th (and omg they're gorgeous IMO.. and the back is down blend and SO comfy)...

We have FIVE packages we're expecting tomorrow with all of these goodies!! Ah! Stop me! I haven't even started on the nursery yet!!

Here they just seem to take our word for it, lol. I never had an HCG blood test done. I called and said I was pregnant, they estimated when I'd be 8 weeks for my first appointment, and then I just had a dating scan done at that appointment to pinpoint GA and check everything looked as it should. Amazing how different care is depending on where you are! FX for your doubling!!

 

[mouse_chicky]

now that's what I call baby overhaul, babyb54!

good luck with your test, Miss Redknob.

 

[Miss Redknob]

Well I have turned into a POAS addict, but on a good note my FRER from this morning the test line is almost as dark as the control line..stick bean stick

Baby54 - Love the chairs!!

 

[MackMomma8]

Holy crap babyb, I think that is awesome. I can only hope that my DH allows my nesting instincts to take over our hous like that!! he gets moody if I rearrange the living room...

Mine was a bit hesitant at first (he doesn't much like spending money, haha), but once I requested a "man tools" project and took him along to chair shop, he warmed up. The rest of it I think he's written off to "happy wife, happy life" Whatever it is I don't care! I'm just so excited to see it all come together in the next few weeks!

 

[kitty2385]

sooo many bfps since i was last on here! hopefully someone remembers me haha, i disappeared for a while because i was thinking baby baby baby baby every 10 seconds and it was driving me mad, let alone driving OH mad too! So im back and im trying to catch up with everyone

 

[trgirl308]

Hi Kitty! Nice to have you back.

BabyB, those chairs are gorgeous and look really comfy! My nesting phase may end up with us buying a whole new house because this one is too small... my DH really lives by the happy wife-happy life.. so hopefully that will still work.

10 dpo today, haven't tested yet... want to wait at least until Saturday...
