Brandles maybe twins
Oh yeah, I think I remember reading your post about it and that's what made me go buy a test. Lol!!!! Thank you!! Where can I find that info?
I am feeling the same way Purple, My nausea at the 3 week mark was more than I had ever had and then I upped my protein and it went away... but left me feeling a little uneasy. I can't wait to be out of the 1st trimester so I can start to enjoy this pregnancy more.
OMG!!! My hubby would definitely have a heart attack. Lol!!! But me on the other hand would love twins. I would like on of each please!!!! ;)
Brandy you are pretty on track with my hcg levels and ovulation date and symptoms even... This is also the earliest I've also ever felt sick in a pregnancy...
Some information I have been kind of holding back but it got brought up for you brandles so I'm gonna freak you out a bit more lol...
When the doctor was doing the ultrasound he showed me two seperate areas of fluid.. Now remember he didn't want to call either of them gestational sacs because he couldn't find any yolk sac in one or the other... I read up on it and this study I read said you are supposed to assume any pocket of fluid in the uterus when patient is already established as pregnant to be a gestational sac.. freaking out I mentioned this to my mother who about fainted and I was like "but surely there is no way twins don't run in our family and I doubt my egg split"
So she decides to tell me NOW that actually yeah twins run in our family on my grandmas side, in the women and there was 2 sets of identical twins born to one lady and another identical set born to a close relative of hers and I sat there jaw unhinged and said "identical twins don't run in families it's a fluke chance if they are that common they have to be fraternal twins"
This all became much more real to me the other day when I realized one of the biggest reasons my hcg could have been high to the point of supposed to see a baby but NOT... Is because of twins. Levels would be higher but I wouldn't be far enough along.
So brandy, faint with me. Because neither of our husbands would be happy about that development. Further curiosity to this tale... Doctor was just going to re scan me at 9 weeks depending on bloods... Well when I got my results yesterday he scheduled me for another ultrasound next Friday instead... Soo yeah
Most sites say it's also normal after the 2300 mark to slow down to 72 hrs double time yet calculators have my doubling time at 39 hours
Brandy here is link to info.. It has matched up with my bloods so I can confirm this is accurate

OMG, Burakoam!!! I am dying to find out for you. I need to send you my phone number so you can text me while you're at the Dr's office. Lol!!!! I honestly would secretly love to have twins. My stomach is growing like crazy too. We also have tons of twins on my moms side of the family, but if the tale is true about it skipping generations I would be the generation skipped. However, it didn't skip the last generation, so I guess that tale is busted.
I hope you have at least one blue one in there Burakoam! I LOVE my boys to the moon and back and believe that boys should come together in pairs like shoes [emoji4]! ID twin boys would be SO freaking adorable!!!! Eek! I hope it is!!!

I should be 6 weeks and 1 day.. I'll be sure to let you know if they find 2 lol.. I think I'll die from shock though. I'd be the first in a while to have twins of any kind fraternal or identical in this family. The others are much older. I wonder if coq10 would have anything to do with it if I do have twins.. Better quality eggs more likely to pop more than one out at a time?
Oh purple you are killing me here lol.. My mom said "you would be the one to pray so hard that you get twin boys" lol
Seeing as we were done with babies lol i have absolutely nothing for this bub. We sold the pram and change table about 3 months ago and that was the last things I had. So I have to start from scratch again! I suppose im going to wait till I find out gender so I can buy appropriately coloured things.
Me too Cinss! We just got rid of EVERYTHING!! The only thing I held on to for some reason were her cloth diapers... Let's just PRAY this is a little girl!!! I am dying to find out. I keep looking at all the pics from when I was pregnant with my son and daughter. I am have gone back and forth with what I think this baby is. The unknown is killing me.
On a side note: My last BHCG was drawn last Tuesday and I STILL don't have any results. I am beyond upset. I called the office last Friday and they said results were due to come in that afternoon, and I would have a call Monday am. I used to be the nurse in that office, so the new office staff is still a little bitter with me. I swear I should just change offices, but I love my OB. I should've called yesterday, but didn't want to bug them... I am calling today for sure.
OMG!!! I just got off the phone with my Dr's office and I got my results... What are your thoughts??
7/29 - bhcg 101 Prog. 19
8/2 - bhcg 1263 Prog. 25.1
Doubling every 26.3 hours :omg:
My goodness our hcg's were so close together brandy......if that pattern continued for you then you were around 2000 on the 3rd just like I was! I don't know about twins but I do know I hope you are wrong and the high hcg is my boy and not a girl, lol.... I am so worried about that.. I know there isn't much truth if any to the whole gender/hcg thing but it freaks me out... With my youngest she was tripling every 48 hours but her numbers were lower at the last point than this current ones were.. I am hoping the 'tale' holds true for me in the sense of a woman's hcg reacting opposite to different genders... Thing is I never knew what it was with my first two so maybe high hcg is my girls normally :(
But brandy you do give me hope because of our twin hcg levels that I ovulated on the 14th which is a day I actually had sex... Making it more likely a Y sperm was waiting for that egg!!! Please oh please.
And I most likely ovulated the 14th too... but it could also have possibly been through the 16th.
With my daughter I was
14 dpo - bhcg 97
24 dpo - bhcg 12,000 flat
I know those numbers don't give you hope for your boy... but honestly, I don't think gender has anything to do with numbers... just from past experience of my friends. ;)
Don't worry Burakoam! At 21DPO, my beta HCG level was 22,516 and two days later it was was 32,682!! He's very much a he, and I absolutely didn't ovulate any earlier as I had an US to confirm O.
FX so hard for blue!!

See that's just it.. It seems lots of people with boys have these crazy high hcg numbers I've never seen in my life lol..this baby has higher numbers than Angela did at this point so just gonna cross my fingers and hope it means something even if it really doesn't
I am getting impatient for Friday since Friday is my next ultrasound...
Ive booked my NT scan for the 23rd, seems like forever away
It is forever away! I would be dying on the inside... As it is I have 4 weeks left until panorama and that seems forever away then a week before I get to know... Yeesh.
Anyone familiar with the moon sign or moon phase for gender nonsense... Well the moon sign has been right for all my girls.. Can someone give me examples of it being wrong and give me hope because this baby in my tummy was also a girl sign and girl phase like my first two.. Angelas the only one who had a boy moon but still a girl sign and I'm just like oh god please this can't be real? I would have apparently been in girl signs the whole year so was doomed in that sense no matter what..I just don't want to believe it's 100% accurate even if it has been for all of mine so far ☹️
If it were true, I'd have 2 girls and a boy instead of 3 boys! And for my 3rd boy, only the moon phase was correct.

I love you hubby. Thank you!!!
Goodluck for the scan Burakoam.
I have booked my NT scan for the 27th. I go back to the fertility clinic next week to get blood tests to be monitored going off the progesterone. I thought my nausea had stopped but it is back, although quite mild but I think it was mild with ds1.
Testing...
Guess it's just the 2ww thread I can't post in lo lolol oh well then I guess.
Good luck with your scan burk. Twins would be fab. I'd be petrified incase I had twin girls though. That would be just me luck haha.
I have ages to wait until my first appiintment/scan. I should be booking in soon as I'm over 7 weeks but I'm deceiding between 2 different hospitals. I feel totally not pregnant although I feel quite thick around my middle. I have put alot or weight on doing he for so long but dropped all snacks etc I'm hoping it's just bloating and not because I've more than one stowaway. Got a family party tomorrow so it's going to be hard not drinking and disguising it! This should be my last hurdle for a while! Hope everyone is ok and feeling well xxx

Baby measures 5 weeks 6 days... I was off on my dates by... Days. This is sort of astounding to me because it means I had a positive pregnancy test at 8dpo. I thought I was 10 DPO when I took it or I wouldn't have tested... That explains why it was so light LOL... Worried about the fact this baby was conceived at a 2 day cut off... Nothing I can do now... Just a little sad I guess...last had sex Thursday morning and baby was conceived sometime after 12 am Saturday since that was my 72 Hr mark... Also means I ovulated very late in my window.
oh also heart rate was 115 BPM...doctor said thats the low side of normal so he isnt concerned yet
Aww that's fab burk. I think I may be in same boat with the date situation but will confirm after my scan. I think I ov later than previous months which given of changes tactics might have even put me further away. Bean looks fab though so exciting. It's so real for you now x
Scan looks great Burakoam. I wouldn't be too concerned about HB as the average for that gestation is 104, although the old wives tale is saying girl but it isn't the most reliable and is wrong for a lot of people. Even at 6w 1d it is above average so I would say it is on the low side at all! Measurements can be out by a day or so when the scans are that early so your ovulation may not be different.
oh my gosh purple..id be so happy...do you have any way of proving that to me with articles or personal experience? it would make much more sense to me if i had conceived friday...
What a cute pic Burakoam.
Congrats, Burakoam!!!! Such a cute little bean!!! I still have to wait 2 more weeks for my scan. My Dr likes to scan at 8 weeks. I can hardly wait!!!
Just from what I have read online they can be out as they are only measuring in millimeters. My previous one she got about 3 different dates in the same scan!
This one was 4 days behind and I know when I ovulated but as I had a normal period I'm also sure I implanted late.
I agree with purple, Burakoam! At my first scan even then when I asked about dates (we were measuring ahead) she said it might just be the angle since there's a lot of room for error that small. What a sweet little bean - sending all my blue dust!!![emoji170][emoji170]
I know its very early but is anyone thinking about names yet? I have a couple that I am considering, all of my family (my parents, me, brother, husband, and children) all have names that start with either A or C, so naturally those are my choices for starting letters, I also have a tattoo which symbolises the A and C together.
So for a girl I was thinking Cian or Aria. And for a boy hubby likes Cane or Aven.
