I am petrified to join this and have something go wrong (again!) but I am also desperately needing some early-on folks to talk me off the ledge. So here I am, hoping this doesn't bite me on the bum!

Location: Sydney
EDD: October 15th (based on IVF transfer)
How far along? 5+1 weeks
First child: 2nd child, but 5th pregnancy
First dr appointment: Already seen OB due to history, but next appt is Feb 29th for early scan.
Any symptoms: Cramping, bloating, insane giant hormonal pimples, tiredness.
Who have you told: Most people know our journey, so pretty much everyone who's important to us. And on my blog so you know, all the interwebs

I've had a few betas so far:

12dpo - 28
17dpo - 286
20dpo - 1092

I don't think I'll have more, since they make me anxious - just have to pray this one sticks. Did get a 3+ digi this morning so I'm hopeful things are still rising. I'm 22dpo today // 5+1 weeks.

@FaithFertility: thanks! my first Lo is two and very busy

@Boston terrier mom: Welcome and congrats!!

@jaguar: I'm so glad you're joining us!!

I am still just barely pregnant and I already want to puke up my breakfast.

@Boston terrier mom: anxious hie?! About not having g symptoms?!

I am feeling anxious in general, knowing all we need to get ready...DD being a siblings etc.....lol

I started bleeding this morning. since my lines never got darker on my pregnancy tests, I think it's safe to assume it was a chemical pregnancy.

@FaithFertility: anxious that I have no symptoms and that the dr asked me to re do my betas.she said they were low but didn't give me a number. I have no patience to wait for results.

@Boston terrier mom: Awwww I'm sure all is OK!
My OB this pregnancy stated that my first were on the lower end at over 170, I think OB are not as sensitive as RE, my first beta with DD was 74 so I know the game!
They usually do 2 as to see numbers double regardless of first number!
Hang in there!!!!

@LatteLove: ughhhh I'm so sorry! I pray it's only break through spotting! Prayers!

@Boston terrier mom: Ah yes, welcome to beta hell. I just got out of that. No need to be anxious tho. One number means nothing, it's the rise the matters. Low numbers are fine as long as they rise appropriately. Doctors just don't like low numbers. And my mother didn't know she was pregnant with my brother until she was 8 weeks because she had zero symptoms. Lol. She never felt sick or tired or anything the whole 9 months. So lack of symptoms isn't a bad sign, although I still find myself hoping for more of them. I'm probably asking for trouble. Lol

@KrzyRiver: Steal away! It made it easier to keep track of everything instead of writing in a journal. Plus I could pop my weekly pictures right in.

@KrzyRiver: it's not heavy, but moderate like my periods usually are... I also stopped feeling nauseous last night which was a big clue for me that it wasn't sticking.

Location: Minnesota
EDD: October 5th
How far along? 6 weeks 4 days

Who have you told? DH

@whiskers: Thanks hun, I still feel like I'm jinxing things by being here, but I am being brave.

@artsyfartsy: Oh you poor thing. No real symptoms here except feeling a bit shady and lots of cramps/back aches.

@LatteLove: Have you had betas done, hun? I am crossing my fingers for you. x

@FaithFertility: I was so scared to even look up my due date (been there too many times) but... I did it. I just hope this one is remembered for a happy reason and not a sad one.

5w2d... exactly 2 weeks til our first scan. I am alternating between so excited to completely petrified that there will be nothing there.

@jaguar: I understand that, I just hope time moves quickly for you over these next few weeks.

@Miss Ariel: Welcome friend!

@whiskers: we're still breastfeeding. Only twice a day though, morning and at night. I keep saying we're going to drop the morning one, but haven't yet.

@FaithFertility:

@Miss Ariel: awesome. Between teething and sickness DD2 has actually been nursing more instead of less lately. We have no real schedule and how long she actually nurses isn't consistent either. So i don't even have particular feeds to drop. With DD1 i just cut her off one day and i was more upset than she was over it (my hormones went crazy).

@artsyfartsy: Awesome Thanks!

@FaithFertility: A.J. is so cute! For us we have 10 possible girl names we like. Boy names are tough. Coming up with T's name was a nightmare.
DH and I have been discussing a boy name since T was born haha. We figured it would be tough (and it was) but I think we have one picked. I'll have to find out for sure that it's a boy before I can really be 100% on it.
