Tnx yahmama! Congrats to u too.
I wanna do the gender blood testing, but my insurance doesn't cover it and I just can't justify paying that out of pocket to find out for sure a tsk early. With all 3 boys it was undeniable at 16 weeks what gender was, I'm far too poor to shell out $350+ to not wonder for probably 4-6 weeks lol
It's hard isn't it unwirklich, I feel the same and in the end I decided not to do it because $350 doesn't change what's already in your belly it just lets you know that little bit earlier so I'm trying to be patient and I have such a strong feeling it will be a 3rd boy for us
Hey ladies I am going to jump in here!
I am due January 18th!
I am only 3 weeks and some days and I already feel as sick as I did at my peak sickness with my last pregnancy. I am in for some trouble I think.
Longing, I was really optimistic I had my girl at first, cause I've never gotten any high degree of nausea before, and I did at first this round, but it's pretty much gone away. I'm actually kinda scared, cause I'm only 6 weeks, it shouldn't be going away. Though I had virtually no symptoms with my boys, and still not even a spot of blood, so I'm trying not to worry.
Sweetdream, thank you :) I'll make sure my midwife includes that in my first blood panel. I use a state funded free medical program, because for our family size we are considered low income..still waiting on it to come in. Though I I'm not far enough along for them to tell me much yet.
Unwirklich, you are just fine I am sure. Symptoms can come and go, maybe you just got a handle on how to deal with the nausea. If you didn't have it with other pregnancies I would think it is okay if it settles down quickly for you. If all your symptoms disappear completely and you just don't feel right then it would be time to worry.
congrats, rosie!
unwirklich- I know its hard not to worry but if you never got sick with your boys, your ms could just be short lived...with my DDs I literally was only sick a few days with them and never more than slight nausea with the boys. xx
Welcome Rosie and congrats again on the BFP! :)
Wow with the symptoms, maybe this is your DD after all! :giggles:
I'll add you to the list.

Lets hope it is Flowerlily! Thanks!
It's so hard to gauge isn't it, I had not an ounce of sickness with my first son but was really sick with my second son so I'm not going off that this time around.... I have been a bit nauseous this time but it's still early, hoping it doesn't get worse!
Welcome Rosie and Congrats x
Congrats Rosie!!
I am still mostly symptom free at 6+4. I now have tender breasts and sobbed this morning for no reason but that's my lot! I was similar with my son too. V lucky.
So do you ladies have any strong feelings re sex of the baby? Before I got preg I was so strongly convinced id have another boy. Sure of it but now I am preg I don't have a gut instinct like I expected to. Unless this changes once I see scans. Both hubby and I knew at 10 weeks when we saw the scan it was a boy x
Well, last night I got like, one tiny spot of blood. Was almost identical to what I got at about 5-6 DPO that I thought was implanting. It was so little I'm trying t not worry, the net says spotting is common in week 6, but I don't remember it with any of my pregnancies but the one I lost. Hard not to worry.
Hi Ladies, just found this forum and joining now. Due in January and swayed pink. Finally a BFP after a year of TTC!
I'm sure it's nothing to worry about Unwirklich if it's only a spot of blood. Bits of bleeding in early pregnancy is very common. As long as you don't have any cramps with it you should be just fine. Maybe try and get some rest.
I'm going to join this group now if it's ok with you girlies. Got my bfp on Thurs last and due Jan 19 2015 Yay!!!! :)

Welcome belledandy and congrats on the BFP! :)
Hope it's a sticky pink bean for you!
Do you know what day in January you are due? ;)

Congrats daisymoo on the BFP and welcome! :D
Do you have any symptoms?
I'll add you to the list. :)

Thanks flowerlily! Only symptoms are extreme tiredness and extra sore bbs!

Im nauseous all day long. I have zofran and it only helps a little. I'm also breaking out like a teenager lol
Momto4, I tried using zofran this time and I found it didn't work as well as my last guy:/ I read online that it can actually make you worse if you're dehydrated... But it's hard to stay hydrated when you feel so awful:(
Anyway, just thought I'd mention since your all day nausea comment just have me shivers!! Yuk! Feel better soon:)
flowerlily, do people go by the first day of their last period? If so, mine would be Jan 9th. If by ovulation, it would be January 12th. I have my 8 week appointment set for June 2nd. Not many symptoms here except sore boobs and sleepiness. With both my boys, I had nausea for the good part of the first trimester and *glowing skin*. Then my appetite picked up during the 2nd and third semester.
Normally yes, belledandy, especially if you have regular cycles.
But I'm using O day/the day I thought I Oed which was 10 days later than I normally do. And I'm still prepared for it to change at the first u/s which I think will be around 12/13w.
Good luck with your upcoming scan.

Wow on the "glowing skin" part that early for you!
I never really get that part and the thick shiny hair until late 2nd tri or early 3rd tri.:( Also same with the appetite.
As for now, I'm in the worst part of all my pregnancies; vomiting at least 5 times a day, not eating anything for days and if I do it has to be something dry. Already lost 4kgs at 8w! And I really want to avoid the the hospital.
I'm craving KFC's spicy chicken wings and I'm so afraid of not being able to keeping it down and never going back to eating it again.
Even looking at the screen is making me nauseated..:sigh:

My spotting continued all weekend, seems to peak last night with what I'd almost call light flow :( , then magically this morning, gone, nothing but a bit of brown cm. So I dunno, 5 am last night when I wiped to find period like blood I was convinced I was miscarrying, now I dunno, no clots, no cramps and it's stopped.
Oh no unwirklich, can you see a Dr or go to A&E? Probably it's nothing major but hopefully to put your mind at ease.
How many weeks are you?
Will be thinking of you.
Oh, just seen you're almost 7w.
Sent from my SM-T210 using Tapatalk
I'm glad it stopped, unwirklich! I agree with flowerlily, though, that it would be good if you could go to your dr just to make sure everything is ok. It's probably normal early pregnancy bleeding, but hopefully they could give you an u/s and be able to check on your little bean! xx
No, my stupid insurance coverage still isn't approved, and none of the local offices will see you while your case is pending unless you pay cash upfront and I don't have enough to pay for it. So I can't get a scan or even talk to a doc unless I got to the ER and end up with like a 2K bill
:( well, sending good thoughts your way that you can have peace of mind anyway since it stopped xx

Flowerlily, oh no, sorry to hear about the nausea. I don't miss that but...for me, if it is a sign of a little baby girl, even tons of acne, I will take it, for peace of mind, LOL! (Oh gosh, what am I asking for?)
I didn't know there was a KFC in Ireland, but I also love KFC too, lol.
Unwirklich I'm glad to see that your bleeding has stopped. I know it can be a nervous time but it is quite common in early pregnancy. Hope you get your insurance sorted soon. Get plenty of rest if you can (I know that can be hard with small men!) Look after yourself x

Yes we have, and almost every other American fast food restaurants.
So, yesterday I texted DH to get me some spicy chicken wings from KFC when he leaves work and to my surprise he even left work early and got a big bag (15-20) of the wings and came home with a big grin on his face thinking I'll be eating all of that, but little did he know I only had 2pcs and 15mins later it went down the loo!
Ugh, I don't know why I was even craving it this early as it is something that I indulge in and the pizza huts cold and hot desserts later when I get my appetite back.
On the bright side, got my first scan appointment today on the 6th of June at the hospital which will be around 12w.
Well, I too have a few differences between this and my previous pregnancies but I'm refusing to think of it as it being a girl! And I already have a strong feeling of it being another boy which is something I'm cool with, ykwim?

Does anyone have hunger as a symptom? I am waking up at 4 or 5 in the am because I am hungry. I have to eat or else I get a stomachache. Even during the day, I already have to eat between meals.
Getting a scan today. I am only 5 weeks 6 days but the dr says he will already be able to see something.
flowerlily, that's a lot of chicken, lol. sounds good though. exciting about your 1st scan! i know what you mean about being cool with another boy. i had to make peace with myself about having three boys before TTC.
coliny, i think i'm about 4 weeks-ish and no real hunger; well, maybe a little bit because i was on the girl diet, lol. good luck on your scan!
Yes, me!! I am so super hungry but at the same time I also have issues with indigestion and (tmi) constipation! I know those are from the progesterone supps I have to take because it really slows down my digestive system... But I wish I wouldn't still feel hungry all the time bc then I know how bad the indigestion will feel afterwards! Trying to eat a little bit at a time but all I crave is meat (sausage biscuits and cheeseburgers)
And Flowerlily, after your post yesterday now I want spicy chicken, lol!
How did your scan go yesterday, coliny?
Sent from my Nexus 5 using Tapatalk
I know that's a lot but I'd easily have 15pcs at one go and to make it look healthy for me I'd have different salads each time plus the desserts, as I'm not a big fan of fast foods. And the thought of it is making me feel sick right now!
Sorry I know some of you are craving it already, don't mean to put you off.;) Go for it!:)
Can't wait the scan in 3 weeks time! Seeing your baby for the first time is so magical! And that's usually when I get a reality check that I actually have a life growing inside of me.:p
Sent from my SM-T210 using Tapatalk
Just had my scan. Dr saw 2 sacs. Didnt check heartbeat yet as he said it is still too early. Very excited and scared at the same time.
Wohoo coliny! That's fantastic news, although my worst nightmare!
Maybe that could be the reason for the hunger pangs?
You are actually making 2 lives, how exciting!:)
