update...

Hi Everyone,
just wanted to give an update...today i am 6w 5d...and went back to my RE for an ultra sound...this week i saw the heart flicker...doctor said everything looks great. i will see him one more time and then off to my obgyn. unfortunately i have been extremely sick with nausea and vomiting... so i am starting on zofran 2x daily....i am not surprised since i was on the same meds and dosage a few years ago with my pregnancy. although its total discomfort....i know my hormones are working...lol

tricia448....So Sorry for your nausea.  I am more than great aside from the mild heartburn and the constant running back and forth to the bathroom but other than that i haven't any symptoms....THANK GOD!....My only complaint is that I have an unusual sleeping pattern.  I get very tired after eating and I'm up all night.  I'm trying to change that or this baby will be on the same schedule...lol....I know you must be excited for your next u/s like me....we've got to compare notes!

waitn838....WOW....!How far along are you?  How are your symptoms?  The funny part is my bday is 7/31 and my anniversary is 8/5 due date is 8/15 and my sons bday is 8/31....LOL...its going to be a  buisy month for us!....How has your u/s been?  Did you see the heartbeat or too early yet?

jnitro26....Thank you!  What's your story!

Tanker Chic...hows the bed rest coming along?

tricia448...Once again I am soo happy for you!  Maybe we can compare notes....when is your due date?  It seems like you and I are going threw the same process.  My RE told me he wants 1 more u/s to check the heartbeat again before he releases me to OB/GYN!  My next apt is after New Years which will be on the 2nd of Jan.

I was on zofran during my 1st pregnancy.

It really only works well if you take it continuously--my dosage was one pill every 8 hours.

At first I was just taking it "as needed" but I found that once I got to the point where I was THAT sick, that it didnt really help.

Taking it continuously (every 8 or 12 hours) is much more proactive and basically stops you from getting sick in the first place!  It was a God-send to me!

Congrats...I know thats a great feeling to see that heart flicker.  I am 12wk5days and I am starting zofran tomorrow.  I should have been on it a long time ago but I kept thinking it would be get better soon.  Hopefully it works so I can start eating and drinking water.  Blessings to you!!

Congratulations on your pregnancy.  Sorry to hear about your nausea.  I hope the Zofran works for you. Ginger is supposed to help.  Drink ginger tea, or put it in some water.
