Hellobee Boards

@mrsbookworm: Congratulations and welcome!!! Hoping you have a very sticky baby!!!

Ugh, I'm feeling sick, but I'm not sure if it's m/s or the stomach bug I just had.

@cram88: I'm sorry you've been sick! Glad everything is going well related to the pregnancy.

@snowjewelz: I'm thinking it must be m/s. I just ate and now I feel better! Plus with the stomach bug, I was experience stomach cramping, but this was just nausea! Plus I'm 6 weeks, so it's right on time, haha.

@simplyfelicity: I had a ton of cramping immediately after BFP that lasted for over a week too! They were a little worse than AF cramps, and also lower. I was scared but it went away!

@simplyfelicity: Yes, normal! I had a ton of cramping or pinching immediately after my BFP. By 6 weeks, it's pretty much gone, but those first couple weeks, it happened a lot. Very normal!

@simplyfelicity: I never had much cramping with AF, so I can't say for sure. But the pinching after the BFP is so normal, but can definitely be scary if this is your first pregnancy!! I remember being so freaked out the first time around because of it!!

@simplyfelicity: Yes, but I could tell it's a bit different. I was def really scared... But just have to get through it. Remember that there's a lot going on down there so cramping would be normal!

@whenoceansrise: Thank you, Hon, I am so relieved! I keep running to the bathroom to see if she has shown up!

@simplyfelicity: Yeah, I was freaked out b/c my normal AF cramps weren't even that bad. I think I read somewhere that your body might still think it's got AF and trying to go through the motions until it realizes that it's pregnant. Hugs I hope they go away soon so you can feel better!

@simplyfelicity: Don't worry, that's normal!! My cramping felt exactly like AF and I was such a basket case. But it went away a little over a week ago (I'm 8 weeks tomorrow) and now I just get some stretching pains every now and then but it's a lot less constant and doesn't feel like AF anymore.

@theotherstark: Yay for your u/s tomorrow!! Can't waiit to see pics of your little love

I am so stinking sick. I am at my wits end with this... I had to leave work early yesterday, which is not something I wanted to do but after throwing up 7 times at work, and then getting 6 vials of blood drawn on my lunchbreak, I just couldn't handle it. It was so nice going home and resting though! I've started taking a half dose of unisom at night along with b6 in the mornings and evenings, which my OB said should help. I also got some sea bands, and I feel a bit better right now, but this morning was so rough I didn't know if I could make it through today! Hoping to start feeling some relief soon.

Also am super excited for my ultrasound on friday! My numbers from a blood draw I had a while ago (at 25dpo) were really high so now I'm nervous for twins, but I know betas don't mean anything. But still haha if I'm not stressing about one ting, I'm stressing about another!

Is anyone else getting shooting pains in their boobs? At night when I roll over or sit up, I get what feels like lightning striking from the sides of them to my nipples, and it is super weird/painful. Just wondering if I am a lone weirdo in this?

@missybear: I'm sorry you are so sick. It seems like nausea meds should help have you considered that?

I'm worried about twins because I'm already so big at 5w but know it is irrational.

It will be interesting to see if anyone is pregnant with twins.. there are a LOOOOOT of mamas on this board.. I am 100% a singleton pregnancy, confirmed through U/S.

What are you guys doing for nauseau? I'm about to lose it... Water makes me sicker.. Ginger ale doesn't work.. I used sea bands when I got sea sick on a cruise and they just make my wrist hurt... I have yet to throw up at work, but I have a feeling that day is coming soon.. so far I just dry heave at my desk.. and I don't think I'm sick enough to need a prescription for morning sickness...

@littlek: OMG, the image of your dry heaving just made ME dry heave! Thanks a lot, lol!

I have no advice. My m/s just started and I ate something and felt better, but it was back 2 hours later and eating again didn't seem to help this time... boo!

@littlek: not sure how much help I'll be since I'm also super sick, but I'm dooing sea bands even though they hurt because if they help a little, it's worth it to me. My OB recommends trying to take 100mg of vitamin b6 in the am and pm, and then if that doesn't help, add half a tablet of unisom in the pm, and go up to half a tablet in the am and a full one in the pm if you need to. I just started that last night and I'll let you know how it works for me. I feel ya on the terrible nausea though.

@littlek: haha, well I share a cube with someone! Thankfully he wasn't here when I just dry heaved!

I was scrolling through the posts and am super jealous of everyone's dark lines...mine were so light at 10,11, 12 dpo. I am 14 dpo and haven't POAS since 12 dpo because DH won't "let" me. My lines were getting darker just barely but some of you had lovely dark lines from the get-go. I just keep reminding myself that positive is positive, and I got a positive digi. I never thought I would have dark line pee stick envy!

@winniebee: No, I'll try that.
