I think you are in the clear though becasue you are over 2 weeks right?
only supps I did were folic acid and will be cutting that soon too since I get all mine from food sources. I have never taken prenatlas while prego they just don't agree w/ me and food sources are absorbed by body better anyway.
def. need to get away from the le diet and start upping that protein and fat for the baby:) just start going back to eating good food:) how long were you on diet? i only didi it for 5-6 weeks so maybe that's why it's so easy for me to go back to shoveling my face lol.

Just to say please don't cut folic acid just yet, its important you keep the dose up til you are 12 weeks then you can wean off it slowly :prof: thats my Atomic head as told by the fair lady herself x

Well statistically odds are in your favour bb, gb, bg, gg - at least three of the four options have at least one g and with clomid to its lookin good

Yeah i've got that to, its really thick and sticky and i keep worrying maybe things are dislodging and i'm miscarrying but nothing happens, no pain but occassionally there is a little blood streak in it (sorry tmi ladies) but not like period more like that from a scratch.

Other weird thing for me is my cervix hasn't risen (not that i have been poking it or anything)

ME !!! But mine is more watery and leaves me feeling wet so i am wearing panty liners at the moment !!

Am so pleased its not just me lol!!!! I can't remember this much at all with my other 3 - some creamy discharge but nothing like this!!!! My friend had twin girls and had to wear a panty liner - she kept thinking she had wet herself but it was discharge - mum23boy - maybe you have twin girls! I haven't had to wear liner - mine is mainly when I go to the toilet!!!

Mine is more wet and stretchy - I sort of slip when I wipe - sorry!!!! Not sure about my cervix - bit squeamish about trying to work it out now! I'm obviously mad!!!! Sometimes a streak of blood can be burst blood vessel can't it?? X

HELLO SECOND TRIMESTER!!!!!! :) :) :) :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:
I am so excited to finally be over the first trimester, mostly for the steep decline in miscarriage rates lol. I stopped taking my diclectin at bedtime a couple nights ago but my tummy was super upset last night so I ended up going down to get 1. Hoping that was my last bit of nausea saying bye to us :) I won't be taking anymore hehe!

It took me awhile to get back to eating normally. I kept forgetting I was allowed to snack! But now I am eating constantly. :S I am always hungry and I start to feel queasy if my stomach gets empty.

I thought it was 13 weeks and that's also what my ticker says but my pregnancy phone app tells me I'm already in the second trimester? HM! Well last night I decided not to take my diclectin before bed (my nausea comes at about 8pm and I have trouble sleeping so I have been taking just 1 at 7:30 each night) to see if my nausea will subside on it's own and I fell asleep pretty easily so I guess it's almost done! Still had a bit of an upset tummy but DH rubbed my back and I fell right asleep. Waking up was a lot easier too! It's a good morning - DS is in a fab mood, I feel good and the first snow fall came over night so it's nice to see a white yard! :)

Yay cvd :) Glad you are feeling better. I think 2nd trimester starts at week 13 but not 100%sure. I'm also starting to feel nausea is better but still very very gassy. And I think I'm a little less tired too. On my last scan last Friday, doctor told me to stop taking folic acid for 3 days cause it might also be the culprit of nausea. He said if when you stop it, you still have nausea, take them for another two weeks, but if you feel better without them, stop them. He said the important thing is that we take them before getting pregnant and till about 12 weeks. I stopped as he said and I am feeling better so I'm not taking them anymore.

Add me to this as well. At one point I had discharge which looked a bit like a show. I had a massive panic attack that i was going to miscarry but the midwife told me it's normal.

This is exactly what happened to me, really thick, sticky and stretchy, kept thinking I was losing my plug!

Hopefully that is a good sign for your girl 3boys. I used to have to force myself to eat breakfast when pregnant with DD. This time around I am actually eating for 2 already. I cannot keep myself fed. I have a cereal bar and juice straight away when I get up then I have my proper breakfast in work at 8:30 as normal. (I only get up at 7:30 so not like it is a long wait)

Thanks hun. It's all down to my MS, it just doesn't allow me to eat before 11. I have never had this before so you never know ;)

I can guarantee there is plenty of blue dust to go round, I will happily share all of mine. Are you going to be finding out the gender?

Really???? I had no idea!!! I've actually been pretty shotty with taking the extra folic acid lately. I take my prenatal vitamin like clockwork with breaky everyday but I was taking folic acid after dinner and over the last couple weeks I have been forgetting every now and then - maybe I have the pregnancy mush brain LOL! It's hard to tell when I was taking diclectin if nausea still really affects me. I took folic acid today but I'm going to stop now since I am through the first trimester so I will see if that helps! Thanks for the info! That's awesome!
& now that I think about it makes TOTAL sense. I only get nausea at nighttime, and I was taking folic acid after dinner. I think that may have been the culprit!

Mine goes back and forth - super sticky then SUPER wet all day long. I should really wear a liner but I am prone to YI with liners/pads so I've just been changing my undies a couple times a day.

On the subject of all this extra cm, I look at the weekly preg calendars each Monday when I start a new week and this weeks said that the body produces all that extra cm to keep infections and bacteria away! I kinda thought it was more horomones maybe lol but it's just keep flushing everything out in there!

I'm a veggie and i have 3 sons - go figure!

Besides your dh is a boy (obviously) so there's been a bit of blue in there somewhere, lightening may strike twice!

Your theory sounds awesome, but unfortunately, I don't think it actually works that way. The way I see it, I most likely released two eggs, and each egg had a 50/50 chance of being fertilized by either an X or Y sperm. It would be awesome to think that I'd have a 75% chance of having a girl, like you suggest, but I don't think that's correct. However, I'm no good at statistics, so what do I know?! LOL! ;)

I have my NT scan next Monday (just one week from today, whoo hoo!), so hopefully I'll have some good pics where we can obsess over nubs. :p I'm absolutely dying to find out what I'm having, especially now that it's getting so close.

I was also stuffing myself from early morning when I was having my DS and even during this pregnancy which I also think it's a boy. Good luck to you...perhaps you also have a little boy in there :) When are you finding out Pearl?

Me too, I had never thought about it but actually I usually got more nauseous in the afternoon and evening too and I used to take my folic acid usually in the afternoon! I hope you will be much better soon :)

I'll take my portion of pink dust and give you some of my blue :) I only got one boy too, (and probably another one on the way) but my sisters are all having boys and my SILs also have only boys....we really need some PINK in the family! My hubbies sister told me that if this is a girl, she's gonna spend a fortune on buying her cute dresses, she's not married and doesn't have children herself so she really adores our children, but if this is a girl, she would be extra special to her.
