Well I have been so sick with what I thought was strep throat at first since one of my cousins was around me last week with it but now it just feels like a bad cold which is causing me not to be able to sleep or eat all that well I've been taking the Tylenol cold med but I don't think it help plus my primary hasn't finish processing my referral to a ob yet which is making me upset and I'm almost at the point where I'm bout to just find my own cause I can't take this I need to see a doc and of course I want to make sure lil one is ok
-
@Honeygold89: Im so sorry youre sick and that the Dr. is taking his sweet time! Do you need a referral for ins? I would probably find my own!
-
@AuntieEm: YES!! I ate mac and cheese again today. Hahaha. Im eating other healthy things to, but the nausea isn't helping me want anything but carbs.
-
@Springtime: Ive heard sour stuff is good for metallic taste. Do you have that? Its mild for me today, but yesterday I kept rinsing my mouth out because it was so intense!
-
@citymouse: no I don't have to be referred but since the week before I was suppose to be referred because of the tiny lump in my breast and last week with him drawing my blood I was trying to wait but in becoming very impatient.
Also here and there I get that metallic taste and I just eat a pickle and it really helps I have went thur a full big jar over the last week
-
I just got my BFP over the weekend and DH and I are very excited!!
EDD if you have one: February 22
When Did You Find Out?: First day of missed AF.
Child Number: 1
Where You Live: Boston
When's Your First Appointment?: Haven't scheduled one yet.
What You're Most Excited For: umm a baby!
What You're Most Scared About: At this point, Twins! I don't know if I could handle more than one baby. I feel cautiously optimistic about this pregnancy since we conceived on the first go and I am taking good care of myself.
Symptoms so far: fatigue, sore bbs
Any fun plans for the summer?: Lots of trips to the beach, weddings, weekend vacations. -
@MSBartlett: congratulations! And yeah to another Boston bee!
-
@MSBartlett: welcome n congrats
-
@MSBartlett: Yay!! Welcome!
-
@MSBartlett: Welcome!
-
@Honeygold89: I'm an impatient person so I probably would have just asked my friends and family with babies who they recommend. That's how I found my OB that I'm seeing Monday. Have never been to her but 2 friends randomly recommended her so I took it as a good sign!
-
@citymouse: Ditto. I'm making sure I'm eating good things too. Fortunately still no sickness so I'm not eating hotdogs out of necessity, but just cause they are so darn good right now!
-
So quick update. My GP today said that the 139 hcg level last Weds was high! Feel better about that because while I knew it indicated how far along they thought I was, I didn't know if that was low or high on the spectrum. I know it's not an iron clad indicator, but better than nothing.
More blood today, he said he should have results tomorrow. The suspense is killing me!!! -
Surreal that I am posting here!
EDD if you have one: February 23ish - I think. Positive OPK on the 1st.
When Did You Find Out?: 17 DPO - I have long LH and was scared to test and be disappointed.
Child Number: One
Where You Live: NZ
When's Your First Appointment?: Don't have one yet, but going to try and get one for 27th.
What You're Most Excited For: Feeling baby kick!
What You're Most Scared About: Miscarriage, this LO is so wanted!
Symptoms so far: Lack of appetite,, a bit of cramping, BLOAT!
Any fun plans for the summer (or winter in the Southern Hemisphere)?: Going to conference for work then roadtripping to see my sister.It's funny, what really got me thinking that I might be pregnant was the fact that the risotto I made my husband on Monday made me want to retch! And then last night at the cinema, the trailer for Man of Steel came on and I started tearing up... Emotional much?
-
@Springtime @lavender: Fun we are all going to have about the same age distance between our LOs!
-
@AuntieEm: OMG, I can't even HEAR the word hotdog right now! hahaha! It was the same way last time, too.
-
@SweetMamaM: Congrats and welcome! I was rooting for you on the June POAS board
-
@erinpye: It's so funny how something is a craving for one person and an aversion for another! I'll stop posting about them though for the sake of your stomach, haha.
-
Finally a legit symptom that must be from being KU! My nips are so sore and sensitive. Kind of relieved!
-
@citymouse: Yes! I have that metallic taste too, I ate a giant pickle last night, it was sooo good!
@MSBartlett: @SweetMamaM: Welcome!!
-
@AuntieEm: yeah that's what I plan on doing now
@SweetMamaM: welcome
-
Guess I didnt luck out with the morning sickness, waves of nausea is not fun, esp when I'm working on patients
Hopes this passes fast and doesn't stick around.
-
So I had to just find my own ob and now I have my first ob appt mon the 24th yay I can't wait to check on my little bean and maybe get help with this cold. DH is taking off to go with me this time which makes me happy cause with the first I was alone so I had to take all the bad news by myself. I been having so many dreams about babies and fish lately just this morning I dreamed about the U/S and seeing and hearing the heart beat its kind of confronting
-
@Honeygold89: Yay, glad you have an appt and hope you like this OB! We are first appt twins too! BFP and appt!
-
@AuntieEm: yay I'm glad and so excited they made t for so soon cause I thought it would be in July some time so here's to good luck for us both on Monday

@Honeygold89: glad you have an appt now!
@SweetMamaM: Yay!! Welcome!
@Springtime: So fun! Thank you for doing that!
-
@Springtime: Thanks so much for doing that! I was thinking of doing the same thing but you beat me to the punch!
Will be fun as we have our first appointments and see if we are far off -
@Springtime: Thanks for making the list. I had meant to do it but MS and migraines are kicking my ass and I'm just not able to be as "present" as I want to be right now!
-
@Ree723: thinking of you! hoping all the levels came back positively
-
@citymouse: Thanks for thinking of me! The initial report yesterday indicates the numbers are looking good, but I have an appt this morning to find out more concrete information, so I was going to wait until after that to update this thread. Starting to think this might be real though!
@SweetMamaM: Congratulations!! So thrilled to have you here! Happy and healthy 9 months to you!
-
@Ree723: Oh, I didn't mean to force you into posting before you were ready. Im sorry!! I am glad to hear that the numbers were good though. FX everything still looks good tomorrow!
-
Just going into my 6th week and all of my symptoms are disappearing! Is this normal? Feeling like I need to run out and buy another pregnancy test to make sure everything is okay...
-
@mrs.halfsie: Some of my symptoms went away as well, like my breasts aren't having any pangs, or pulls anymore and Im not constipated anymore. But other things have started like MS. Also, not cramping as much anymore, I think?
-
@citymouse: Yeah, my main symptom was cramping - which was different than period cramps - and that has all but disappeared. My breasts are still a bit tender, but not as much as they were at the beginning. MS hasn't set in yet. It's probably nothing to worry about, but I can't help but worry!
-
@mrs.halfsie: I am 5 weeks 6 days and totally panicking about my lack of symptoms. My main ones were hunger and cramping and don't feel much of those anymore. No MS yet either. Boobs never really hurt. Last week's ultrasound and beta were fine but tomorrow I have another doctor visit. Soooo incredibly nervous (like can't sleep).
-
@Ree723: I'm still praying for you and hoping everything goes well
@mrs.halfsie: @citymouse: @raintreebee: I have heard this is some what normal and nothing to worry about I have been having symptoms to come and go but I'm just not sure if its been because of my cold or just because but like I say I have heard this to be normal dont worry about it everything is fine
-

@raintreebee: Good luck at the appointment tomorrow, I'm sure everything will look great
I am currently overseas so seeing a doctor regularly to check my levels is out of the question sadly. Which compounds my nerves! I do get progesterone level results back tomorrow - I hope they look good. @honeygold89: Thanks for the reassurance! I'm hope everything is okay, but it's hard not to worry
Hopes this passes fast and doesn't stick around.
