=(( I am so disapointed and mad at myself......I had been lifting my little nephews (more than 20 pounds) and have taken the laxatives like 3 days in a row......I also had a dream in the morning....yeah....and Xrated dream and had a big O......(not O-vulation...ya know....)

It's ALL MY FAULT.........I am so depressed......

I have a friggin interview tomorrow and it's the one i've been looking forward to! i am gonna do terrible now! =((

It's not a lot of blood, i thought i saw some brown yesterday, and then today when i went potty i saw in my pantyliner......brown! so, i (sorry i AM gross i know...) stock a piece of toilet paper in my hoohee and saw pink redish!!!! is not full BLOOD....but it's like when im getting AF.....it would start in a couple of hours from that.....=((((((((

I am so sad........

I thought this was too good to be true.......but i f*'d it up this time!!!!! =( i shouldn't have done these sh*t!!!!!! =(((((

[love1221]

[vsentz]

[love1221]

Sorry...I know this thread is kind of old, but how far a long were you when the spotting started?

[40smama]

Hi all -

Just a quick note before I leave all my pregger chickadees for a couple days.  Yeah - nw my symptoms are pretty much all day but worse at night.  I swear if I didn't know better I would think I have the stomach flu!  Do ya'll think that's what it is?  The reason I ask this is because the nausea and fatigue got better last week and then got suddenly worse Sunday.  Oh well.....the things we do for our babies (and gladly so)!!!

Sarah - those stats about miscarriage after seeing a heartbeat made my day today!!!  Girl, I'm sorry that you had that scare!  Thank God you and that little peanut are okay!  How nice though to get that u/s earlier!  You take it easy but everything sounds really, really good!!

V - I'm w/the others - how's the job going?  Were you able to get all of you paper work done?  Girl, let us know how you're doing!
  
:-)))))))))) - jennifer

[nwmom]

Oh my goodness Sarah, you scared me there for a minute!!!!  I'm so glad they got you in and even more excited that you got an u/s!!!!!  Isn't that the best feeling seeing your little one in there!!  Take it easy and CONGRATS on your positive u/s!!!!!  :)

V:  How's the new job, did they have you start yet?  Hope your enjoying it!

40smama:  I hope you were able to make it to Albuquerque today to see your daughters!  I'm sorry your feeling so  miserable!  I remember I felt the same way with my dd.  I couldn't eat anything really for most of the first trimester except at night when I finally felt ok enough to eat a little dinner.  Is yours all  day long or just part of the day?  Hang in there hon!

:)

[Chookdee]

Hi there...

I had a scare last night, geez...I was cramping and when I wiped, there was red blood and I thought, oh god, this isn't good, actually thought I had overdone things at work....tried to calm down and get on the net to post, but the connection wasn't working, so waited til this morning to call the doc. Thankfully, he squeezed me in for a quick visit to see if all was ok, and yep, did an ultrasound!!!!!!!!!!...

I was SO scared there would be something wrong, but bubs measured at exectly 8 wks today, as he should be!!..and I saw a tiny flutter of a heartbeat....HOW AMAZING to see !!!!... I now feel like this is all ridgey didge!!..I was wondering if i actually AM pregnant!!!...Yay!!!..

Also, doc said that at 8 weeks, with heartbeat, odds are that its 97% everything will be fine, and only a 3% chance of miscarriage. What a relief...

Hope you're all traveling along well. Good to hear from nwmom...your symptoms are pretty much, same as me..40smama, hang in there...things should improve soon, and vsentz, hope the job went well.?

Sarah

[40smama]

Hey girls!!!  Nw - have your dr or nurse or someone check your blood pressure (that's from pharmacist dh).  he thinks it's fluctuating for some reason.  I'll be thinking of you tomorrow for your u/s  - as exciting as those are, it's nerve racking.  I agree w/you- that d*** progesterone is probably what's making you sick.

Girls, I've given up eating because all I did yesterday was puke!  I'm not even kidding - am feeling a little better right now.  Dh gave me some vitamin b6 and unisom to help w/the nausea and it does okay but the pills taste really bitter and are hard to get down!

We (dh and I) go to Albuquerque tomorrow so he can do a pharmacy thing and I get to see our daughters who are going to college there so I'm very excited but he thinks if I'm not better then I can't go - ummmmm don't think so.   My next appt is this Friday but just for progesterone check - I'm w/you nwmom, I can't wait to get off the prog.

Well, if I don't get near a computer the next few days, I'll talk to all of ya'll when I get back - Vanessa how are you doing?  You sound great!!!!  Puking but great!  XOXOXOXO - jen

[nwmom]

Hey there girls!!!  I've really been out of the loop lately.  Really busy last week and over the weekend!  Glad to hear you're all doing well!  Your still feeling sick but that's a good thing.  I'm doing well, still no m/s but still really tired.  I go tomorrow for my follow up u/s so I'm prayin' everything is still looking good.  Last week I was measuring a week behind so this week instead of 9 weeks I'd be 8 weeks so we'll see if that's still the case.  I'm ready for the 12th week to roll around here so we can relax a bit more and I can get off this darn progestrone!   I think it's making me feel like SH**!!  Excuse my language.  The dizziness is crazy, I took my dd out of the car the other day and it felt like the whole car was rolling side to side and I've been the most irritable BI*** to my poor dh!!  I don't remember feeling so mean and irritable with my dd, just extremely emotional (would cry during sad shows, ect.).  Well ladies, glad all is well, any dr. appts for any of you in the near future? Talk to you all later! :)

[vsentz]

Heeeeeeeeeeey girrrrls!!!!!!! well, like i said I am freaking addicted, so i had to come a little and check on my girls......man! i cannot say I am sorry we are all feeling this sick and tired!! lol I AM GLAD!!!! girls, this is so exciting!!!! (yeah it sucks arsh that we feel like rags, but it is a good sign isn't it??) Jen! i am soooooooooooooooooo glad your prog spiked finally!!!!!!!!! man! that is GREAT!!! big big SQUEEZE to you sweetie!!!!!
Chook! i know exactly how you feel girlie! my dh has to travel often....last time to friggin St. Louis and it sucked! 4 days by myself, he's having all the fun in the world.....and here i am....in my dirty arsh house, nothing good to do.....and sick as hell!
Now him and his brother are planning to go to New Jersey to do some woodwork and get about 500 bucks each! (go ahead buddy!!) but it's again...all weekend! so, i will be a pest here next weekend and it's a good idea to go rent a bunch of chick flicks for my good ole self......=)
About the yummy things to eat........YUCK!!!!!!!! is there ever such a thing?????!!!! hahahahahaha
argh......just hang in there girls! first trimester is almost over.......(around one more month to go.....)!!!!

Love ya'll!!!!!! xoxoxoxoxo

[40smama]

Hey chook - Girl, I'm sorry that you're so tired.  I hate, hate the feeling.  I love my two dogs but they missed their last appt w/the groomers (they're both schnauzers sp) and I can't stand the way they smell.  I'm a horrible dog owner!  I've done very little w/them for the past week except to feed and play a little w/them.  My dh has been the one to walk them....

So you'll have to tell what dvd's you watched this weekend!  That really sounds like fun.  I'm a member of Netflix but haven't really gotten around to watching any of the movies that I've received in the mail.  But now that you've mentioned it, I'm gonna watch some of my old favorites (I know it sounds corny but I love Doris Day).

I'm in my 9th week - still so early - aaaauuuuggggghhh!  Aren't we due around the same time?  Trying to find good stuff to eat and then keep from puking occupies much of my time as my taste and smell seem to change hourly!  Chook - have a great rest of the weekend & hog the rest of the bed!  That sounds REALLY really good to me!

[Chookdee]

Hi 40smama, glad to hear all still going well with you, but I'm still sorry you feel so sick...you must be almost 10 weeks now? I think around week 10 the placenta may start producing progesterone..could be out by a couple of weeks, but it'd certainly explain your rise...Hopefully only a couple more weeks of feeling like rubbish...

My weekend has been VERY quiet...nothing to write home about, but shouldn't complain.My dh left this morn to Sydney for 2 weeks!!...Thank god for my two dogs I have to keep me company..ooo...also looking forward to spreading out in bed, and having my pick of dvds to watch..yay!!...

just wondering how I am going to get through this week at work...just so tired, and have had enough of work!!

Anyhow, take care..hope you found that something special to eat!

[40smama]

How's everyone doing?  Just thought i'd checked on my fellow preggers -

V - you wild and crazy thing!  How are ya doing today?  I'm so thankful for that inbox cuz girl I'm addicted too!  You're a sweet thing to listen to all of my problems - lol!!!!  I'm pulling for you and that little bean of yours - he/she better not go anywhere - not if I have anything to say about it!  I'm glad to hear that you're getting so sick, girl - lol!!!  Saltines, anyone?

Just a little update - thank God everything is still okay.  It's like I go to every appointment expecting bad news which goes against everything I tell everybody else to do!!!!  Anyway, this last appt (which was yesterday) I would've been shocked if there was something wrong cuz I feel so sick!  My progesterone shot up 19 points so YEAH!!!  Maybe my body is starting to make some progesterone?  Who knows?!  The nausea and fatigue continue as before - nothing has changed.

Hope everyone's having a great weekend - mine's boring so far but I'll find something to liven it up - maybe something yummy to eat that won't make me gag?  That's about the extent of my exciting life.  Ya'll go do something fun!

[vsentz]

hoping4amiracle!! hey girlie! where have you been??!!! long time no talk!!! how's every thing going with you?? updates! updates!!!! =)) thank you for your thoughts!! girl, please send me a message whenever! i love talking to you!!!

40smama- hey girlie!!! I know, it's like my new addiction to come and check my messages (inbox) and i know one of yours will be there!!! i LOVE it!!! =)) (what a dork...i know!)
Nahh....the job thing, i think this is where i need to be right now.....don't worry hun, i will get a good maternity leave 100% paid if all goes well! =) (and im not loosing any money, it's about a couple bucks more than what i was originally making....) =)
The spotting has subsided a little....well, i must say: a lot......i still see things are not 100% clear down there, but it's not the stuff that i was seeing!!!! =S so, i guess we are progressing! =), now i been reading about this girl that had breakthru bleeding with progesterone sup., so maybe this could be it?? i don't know.....what i know is that little one is hanging in there strong so far......and he/she is being nurtured from 'this side' and 'the other side'......;)

How are YOU doing??? still morning sickness??? girl, give me updates!!!! i've been having it bad, but i just hang in there knowing it's a good sign! i'll tell ya, i can't wait for the 13 week mark!!!! *sighs*...never made it that far....=(
oxoxoxoxox

[40smama]

hey nw - love hearing from you and chookdee - hope my fellow preggers are doing great!  You both sound great & I know I've talked to you in other threads but wanted to say thanks for thinking of me!  I'm doing okay - about the same.  Could barely (again) lift my head off the pillow this morning but better this evening.  Chook - sorry that you're feeling a little out of sorts - I know that you can't wait for that u/s - but it sounds like you're doing really, really good!  I know this sounds redundant - try not to worry (like I'm one to talk - lol).

V - I talk to you all of the time - you crazy, girl!  I'm sorry about the job stuff (actually all of the red tape stuff) - hang in there girl!

[HOPING4AMIRACLE]

hey girl I've been thinking of you. i am glad to know everything is going great for you! how have you been feeling???

[vsentz]

Hey ladies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! how are my gurls doing today!?? I did go to sign my papers yesterday, but they are giving me a hard time because they need to prove I can work in the US,....and then, that i studied at my college......argh! soooo loooong! so i might not even start until next week! =S
Anyway, I am so glad to hear every one is hanging in there! so glad to hear the U/s's went well! and girl (nwmom) DO NOT worry sweetie, mine was 112!....taken at 6w 2d.....and the doctor later said he thinks it looked healthy, no need to worry.....so, i think we are fine....I am just really hoping this one is my little sticky bean! =)
Chookdee girl, I think you are just worrying for nothing sweetie! i know! better said than done huh? but really....you'll see your little wormie squirming around like he's having a blast!
40S! girlie! i haven't even had time to check them! i've been so busy PUKING my brains out! oh, and sh*tting too....lol....is like having a stomach infection!.....lol........hey, question, does progesterone makes you horny?? cuz if not.....then dh just looks sexier lately......! damn!!! =))
I feel like my days are: wake up, eat, sh*t, go to sleep (couch), wake up, eat, sh*t more,......and if i can, go for a small walk with doggie.....come back, eat....., maybe sh*t.....and go to sleep!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! lol anyone related to that?????

kkase- I don't think they make you miscarry girl. In fact you can take them in very low dose to help you go......just ask your doctor what you can take.....i think senocot is ok......the only thing is that, if you push too hard or make much effort going, you can bust a little vessel down there and you might spot.......hope this helped! =)

xoxoxoxoxo TO ALL!

[nwmom]

thanks ladies for the supportive words!!  I appreciate it!  

Chookdee:  Hang in there!  I know it probably seems like a long time but just imagine once you go in your going to be able to see so much more than I did today.  That will be so exciting for you!!!!  I'm feeling the same grumpiness!!  I seem to get more irratible a lot quicker than I did before I got pregnant!  Some days everything bothers me.  

40smama:  Thanks for the info on heartrates from your nurse.  It made me feel better.  My dr did say not to worry about it.  It's like ok, if you don't want me to worry about it don't keep talking about how it's a little lower than the norm.  Just say looks ok.  You know?  LOL!  Hope your feeling better.  Still have the m/s?  

V:  You start your job today right? Hope your enjoying your new environment!!!  How have you been feeling?  

[Chookdee]

Nwmom...wow...so happy for you here!!!I know nothing about heartrates, so I can't comment there, but seeing that heartbeat, what a relief..Congratulations!!! It's great they're checking on you in a week as well...You must be very happy!!

v- hope the job went well today?? Gee you must be tired as hell!

40smama-hope ya doing well...

I'm feeling pretty whingy right now..tired, grumpy and jaded with pretty much everything, and time is dragging...man...thank god for the web and these positive posts!

[kkase]

I haven't read everything but was wondering as I skimmed, was vsentz worried she may have been miscarrying becasue she took laxatives? Can that even happen? Am I just confused from beginning what issue was?

[ashort]

vsentz-  CD 9 today...haha...just waiting patiently...this morning no line at all again!!  My cycle used to be 35-38 days so if that's the case I will possibly o on day 17-19..  I'm trying to stay positive...now that they found out I am heterozygous for MTHFR I feel like we know the reason I m/c. Now I'm taking extra vitamins so I feel better.  How are you feeling?  Any morning sickness?  When do you go back?  Thank you for the help with the OPK's I was wondering what was going on with them with no lines.  I feel like they aren't working.  But I will test again tomorrow and see.  I so remember your CD8...I remember reading that post.  Oh it seems like so long ago.    I've never been to New Hope either but my friend is from Allentown and she talks about it.  She said their are lots of psychics there.

[40smama]

nw - OH MY GOSH - A BIG FAT CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!  I can tell that that weight HAS been lifted off your shoulders!  Thank God for that!  I don't know if this really matters but when they measured the h/b of my little critter, it measured at 144 and the nurse said that anything between 120 and 160 was great so I think you're doing fantastic!!!!  I think that the stat they gave you about the percentage of miscarriage is, oh my gosh, so great I wanted to cry - AGAIN!   We all have to tell our little beans - YOU BETTER BE STICKING IN THERE!!!  

V - how ya doin' girl?  Sent you a couple (or maybe 3) messages - thinking about you for tomorrow.  Take care of yourself and that little peanut - try not to stress too much (like I'm one to talk - lol)!

[mommyluv02]

Thanks for asking about me i am doing fine taking it easy this month and only temping and i think i maybe Oed yesterday but i am really not gonna get to excited cause in a few months i am going to go to my OB/GYN and get put on clomid. so there is really no pressure right now. but i am hoping to join this club soon!!!!


nwmom~ that is great about the heartrate congrats!!!

[nwmom]

Hey ladies!  Well, I just got back from my u/s and we saw our little bean in there with a heartbeat!!!!!!  I am so realieved!  They said I only measured 7 weeks so a week off but she said it's nothing to be worried about.  She told me I could've o'ed late or implantation could've been late or both. The heartbeat measured 130.  She said 160 was the average.  I asked if that was bad and she said 160 is only the average and it's exactly that, just an average so she said not to worry.  She did say she was going to have me come back in a week just to be on the overly cautious side.  I feel like a huge weight has been lifted!!!!  I know it doesn't mean I'm in the clear but the % for m/c now that you see a hb she said was only 2% compared to 15% before.  Wheww!!!!!!  Hang on there little bean, hang on!!!!!!  

[vsentz]

ashort- awweee thank you girlie! man! i still remember when i was CD 8! i wish i would have been half as positive as you were!, that day i went to RE to see what the heck was wrong (since i hadn't had my period when i made the appointment) and then they scheduled it like within 2 weeks, so i got my period then (after 3 months) and i was done, so they could do an ultrasound and saw my 'manly' parts....remember? the cyst that according to him is like: it would be the 'recesive' male parts that didn't form (of course! dumb a$$) when i was forming myself in my mom's belly. *scratches head*.....yeah......so, anyway.....
Yep, the answer OPK's get a little darker and darker each day, so you actually can't miss it!....just take one every day....and when it starts showing a second line, test twice a day.....until you see a darker line!! that's your positive (I would actually start bd'ing like bunnies when i'd see the line just as dark or a liiiiittle lighter...just in case)!
I have never been to New Hope! is it nice?? where is it at in PA? it sounds familiar but im to damn airhead and probably is the town next to us and i don't even know it! lol ;)
You go and get your 'butt' read by the psychic and come right back and let me know what she told you ok????!! man i love those creepy things! lol

Amanda! how are you doing girlie??!! oh my gosh, thank you for your very sweet words!...i know, im being dumb.....i know it was early......but you know, last time it happened it was 95...and baby passed away,.....so, at least this time it was over 100.....*sighs* I wish i could just feel free of worry!!! =( I just called the doctor to see when he wants me to go and get the second one...... and yes, you are right, if i just worry about every little thing, this baby is the one that'll be the pisser! lol =))
Thank you sweetie, and keep me posted on how everything is going with you! ok? =)
