Hey:) hope everyone is feeling well! And congrats to any of the new bfp's!!
Just wondering if anyone has tried Teeccino before? I have been trying to find something to replace my morning coffee and I just picked up a bag today to try tomorrow. I guess it taste like coffee but is caffeine free and is way better for you;)
Essnce I am under Mayra Alejandra Flores... I have a picture of my self 😆.
QueenB3blue,
I think you are ok as long as you have one cup or less. I had coffee this morning amd my stomach has been acting funny since yesterday so I am paying for it now. Let us know if you try it and how it is :)
Is it just me or is anyone experiencing hot and cold at the same time. I haven't been able to sleep since sunday because my feet are always super hot but I am cold in my upper body :( its getting annoying and I need more than 3 hours of sleep :mad:
I have been feeling like I have a fever and keep getting hot flushes.I thought I was coning down with something the other day.x
eleena,
:( I thought I was too. The dh thought I had a.fever last night. As we speak my feet are freezing while im sitting here at work. Super weird but Im thinking it has to do with the extra blood we are pumping through our body :(
I get chills often. More frequently when I am nauseous. But it really does feel almost like getting sick. But, since its been happening for two months, I am pretty sure it pregnancy related ;) I get hot flashes, but not as often as I am cold. Hubby laughs as he is sitting around in a t-shirt and shorts and I am wearing a sweatshirt, socks, and wrapped in a blanket!
I get the chills when nauseous too hot dogs x

Just had my dating scan, as expected my EDD has been put back, by a whole week! To 20.5.15. So I'm exactly 6 weeks today (& look like 6 months LOL).
Had my first cup of teeccino this morning. It was really good, I had a hazelnut flavor. So it is a good alternative to coffee, but cost more:-/ Through most of my pregnancies coffee doesn't even sound good, but at least I found a healthier option;)
I haven't made any appointment's yet. My midwife schedules blood work and an ultrasound at 9 weeks, then at 12 weeks I see her. I am contemplating lying about my dates so I can get my scan more like the 12 weeks mark. I will feel bad if I lie but I would really like a chance at getting a good nub shot;) but then I am nervous they wouldn't adjust my due date, I would be at least 2 weeks off!
*sigh* I wonder why some places do the first scan at around 8 weeks and some 12??
And Yes, my body can not decide if it wants to be cold or hot:-D
Here in NZ they won't even scan you for the 12 week scan before 12 weeks you have to be between 12 and 13. The dating scan is at about 8 weeks so very different purposes! I would lie , the 12 week scan is more important to me unless you have a history of miscarriage X good luck xx

QueenB,
Thanks for updating on the tea. I am going to have to buy some. I am really trying not to drink coffee but I usually have one (iced) latte. I wonder how bad can it be to drink coffee while pregnant :( of course with a small amount. Honestly if you want your work done sooner you should. Just say your last period was the month before your last one ;) and that your period was out of sync the past few months due to stress.
Omg ladies !
I honestly really thought I was coming down with something. Even the dh mentioned to me again if I had a fever. I get chills, & feel nauseus usually at bed time :( That is only a sign of the beginning and more to come.
Sorry yogi!! I have just had that for about four weeks pretty much every night sleep and bed are all that helps me! Xx

Yogi, my chills and nausea are always closer to bedtime too. But it's normal to feel colder at bedtime because your body temp drops to prepare for sleep. And the nausea, it just contributes to the chills. Thankfully, I am finally starting to feel better. It was a longer run this time though. I am 15.3 weeks! But was nauseous a bit this evening, but not for long.
I did find out that I have a UTI. I went to the doc last week and they told me I didn't have one. But sent the sample to the lab anyway. Mostly since I am pregnant and the symptoms did match my other pregnancy UTIs that I had with my last pregnancy. So those results came back positive.
Ill tell ya, symptoms can really be a tricky thing. Every single symptom I get that is from my daughters pregnancy makes me think its another girl. Which, naturally, if I am leaning toward wanting a girl, is tough. I am trying to keep my head on straight, since its just as likely, if not moreso, that this baby is a boy. But it so hard. This pregnancy is NOTHING like with my sons (which were pretty similar) and just like my daughters. So it's tough not to feel hopeful.
Hotdogz, it totally makes sence. I am so not used to the body temperature abrupt shift changes, but totally worth it. I remember my utis from my pregnancies and mine are always horrible. They usually end up becoming kidney infections. One thing I do get often are yeast infections :( and has never failed with all three pregnancies so I can relate with these dang infections. I really hope your symptoms are related to your daughters pregnancy. I have been craving so many salty foods and tell my self it could be boy related buying themselves I don't remember which im sure I did eat lots of salty foods in my previous pregnancies. It never hurts to hope and dream for what we want. I hope you get your little girl 😃
Supposedly you can safely have 3 coffees a day. I'd die without coffee I have at least 2 & have done so with all my pregnancies. No negative affects at all.
I need your opinions ladies :)
I am debating to go have my pee tested for pregnancy tomorrow but what I do not know is how the test is done or how sensitive. I should be 13 dpo tomorrow and today I did get some decent lines however they are still not pitch dark and I am indecisive if I should go in tomorrow or should go in a week? I really want to go tomorrow just because me and the dh are going out for our anniversary friday night, which is only a dinner and a movie but this is when I am planning on giving him the big news as he still doesn't know? What do you all think ? Shall I take a risk or wait it out. I read the policy and it says that if it shows negative they could retest in a week. My dh said he wanted me to be certain I had a positive hpt before I told him and at Kaiser they upload the results asap so I would be able to pull it up and show the dh, but I am just worried to have to wait or get a bfn :eek:
Hot flashes were my very first symptoms with DS1 and DS2. It has to do with the increased blood volume.
Yogi-- I think you'd get a BFP at the doctor's office just fine. I went in at 12dpo and it was definitely positive on their urine test. They use pretty sensitive tests. Oh, and if you're prone to UTIs and yeast infections during pregnancy you may want to try taking Fem-Dophilus, which is the only probiotic with the strain of bacteria that is best for the female reproductive tract. I already started taking it as I'm prone to yeast infection during pregnancy as well. With DS1 I was also GBS+ at the end and with DS2 I made sure to take the Fem-Dophilus for several weeks before testing and was negative with him. You can get it at Whole Foods in the refrigerated section (it was on sale when I got it last week).
Here's the link to it:
Jarrow Formulas Fem DophilusŪ -- 30 Capsules - Vitacost
For me, I try to avoid caffeine during pregnancy. I was never a coffee drinker until about a year ago and I definitely couldn't stand the smell of coffee when I was pregnant with DS2. I would make DH use the coffee maker in the bathroom with the door closed LOL! I incorporated caffeine into my sway, but after getting BFN 4 cycles in a row I decided to ditch all caffeine in the 2WW for fear it was hindering implantation. This cycle I switched to warm milk with cinnamon, honey, and vanilla extract instead and I'll probably keep drinking that since it's really good. But it's definitely not going to wake you up like coffee or anything! In fact, I drink it before bed!
Thank you Essnce!
For all of your great advice! I am going to go in and have the test done. I will also try out the fem pills. How do your take them? Just follow the box instructions. I think I may have to go tomorrow because I felt that sensation and I want to nipit in the butt before it starts. 😃
You take 1 pill a day for maintenance or 2 pills a day if you're feeling any symptoms.

But give me a week or so and the pregnancy sickness will kick in and I won't want anything to do with it!
The doctors office I go to does not do NT scans, they do a 8/9 week one:( that is why I would lie about my lmp, so I could get a look at the nub around 12/13 weeks. But I know I will probably go to a private place around 14/15 weeks to get a gender scan. That would just be another week or so, maybe I should just be patient.
Is everyone finding out their gender? Or are there any team greens amongst us??
I will definitely be finding out the gender. In fact I hope to be able to do the Harmony or Panorama blood test so I can find out as.early as possible.
We are green :) We think ;) Lol.
I will check that out for UTIs. I have to be careful, lots of things promoted for UTIs have cranberry and I can't have that because of my blood thinners. But I do probiotics, just not that kind typically. I also use apple cider vinegar when I get symptoms. But I do treat with antibiotics when I get a positive urine test (haha...crunchy...but like my medicine! Lol).
I've always drank caffeine in pregnancy too. I hated coffee with my second son, but love it this time. I limit myself to either one iced coffee or one soda a day. I need a hit of caffeine with these munchkins all around. Thankfully, everyone has been happy and healthy so far!
We are green ;)
But I do feel like cracking with this big run of girlies!!
Hoping hoping for a girl but do feel at peace with my third boy and have already convinced myself that's what im getting!!
I have been off coffee due to ms but will drink it through this pregnancy and did the two weeks before ms hit!
I know sunflower and Beth wade are team green too X

.
We are 100% finding out. I found it very hard to bond with my first baby in utero & I found that much easier with my second when I found out he was a boy & we were able to name him. I'm certain this is boy #3. Certain.
Hi! thought I'd join now as I had an early scan on Tuesday and saw the little heartbeat! Think I'm due 30th April :)
Huge congratulations babybeaublue!! So happy for you hugs xxx
hi ladies,
i was hoping to join this thread. I am due with my third child April 5th. I swayed for a girl because i already have 2 wonderful boys. i will be finding out the gender at my 20 week scan but i think i already know that I am having a boy. I just had my ultrasound at 12 weeks and 6 days and I saw what I think will develop into a penis and testicles. I posted the pic in the ultrasound forum. I know it might be too early to tell but I am trying to embrace the idea of being the mum to 3 boys. Either way I am pretty excited about welcoming another child into our family. Hope you all are feeling well. I have to say I have only just started to feel normal again over the last few days. I was pretty exhausted, gassy, bloated and queasy for the last 3 months. Bring on the second trimester yay :)
Welcome Deb and Babybeaublue!!!
Congrats and welcome deb and babybeaublue! Great news :)
Funnily enough I LOVE the smell of coffee especially when pg!! Weird hey. I've always only drank one or two cups a day because I can only have it in the morning or it interferes with sleep. I continued that during the sway and have been drinking it now. I've had the odd day where I only drank decaf.
As far as the world is concerned including DH we are team green but between you ladies and I, I will be finding out on 7th October at a private gender scan. I'll be 16 weeks. Need the headspace to get around hearing boy so that when I officially hear it with DH I don't react badly.
Welcome babybeaublue and deb this group just keeps growing which is awesome!! Xx

Hello & congratulations, babybeaublue & deb :)
Hi ladies,
I had a false alarm :(. I just experienced a chemichal pregnancy. AF came full force this morning. I did take a frer which is still faintly positive but now I can peacefully move on to October. Good luck to you all.
I'm so sorry for your loss yogi, I really hope October is your month for a sticky baby!
I'm sorry Yogi - Chemicals are hard..they really play with your emotions. I truly hope October is your month. GL
welcome deb and babybeaublue! congratulations.
Thank-you girls. I am not devastated at because I was able to accept it since yesterday. My hpts were not.getting darker so that trigerd my thoughts that this was a chemichal. Thank-you ladies for your support. :)
Congrats babybeaublue and deb!
So sorry Yogi:(
DH and I decided to not lie about my lmp to Dr. So I won't get a chance at a nub shot. But I figured analyzing the darn thing would probably make me cazy anyways!!
Hope everyone is feeling good. No ms for me yet. I am sure in a week or so it will kick in. Maybe I should eat that cheeseburger I have been thinking about since April before it doesn't sound good! I can't believe I have gone this long without one!!!!
