I know 5babies! All of a sudden I can't wait until we get the results back from the MaterniT21 test, which is in 3.5 weeks. The results should be back a week later on or before 6/10! I'll have a great nub/potty shot though that will be done on 6/2. Trying to pass the time....[emoji6][emoji4]
So apparently I've just had a good couple of days. I'm up right now- can't fall asleep because I feel like I'm going to puke [emoji20]. Ugh! The bands AND the medicine is not working! I hope this is the part where it gets worse before it gets better. I can't imagine it getting worse than this...off to puke

Oh no.. That is terrible XX. Really hope it gets better for you. That's some strong hormones you've got going on!

I swear this baby rejects certain foods I eat. I had a blueberry bagel around 8:00pm! Needless to say it didn't sit well and came up. I'm fine this morning, thank goodness!

Oh no XX I hope the nausea subsides! I'm already feeling sick, which doesn't usually happen so soon for me. I'm dreading throwing up.. I almost did this morning. I take ginger supplements and drink tons of ginger ale.
My brown spotting turned pink when I was supposed to start my period. . I'm starting to think it's hormone related? I took a test to make sure my hcg was going up to relax myself and it has. I just wish the spotting would stop for my sanity!
XX-so sorry! i hope this is the "big bang" and it will start subsiding from here
seebee-how frustrating!! did you get a beta done?
I had my first "official" ultrasound yesterday. got to see and hear the HB at 127. tech heard of the ramzi theory so she said placenta not there yet but attached at posterior left. now, i'm going to read all my past ultrasounds and see if they are different. haha. started taking the B-calm PNV in addition to my nightly Unisom/b6 and i'm feeling a little better.
anybody know what link i need to copy and paste for my ticker?
think i figured it out!
Smarston that sounds very promising!! Happy you got a cooperative tech. Last baby the tech shot me down as soon as I asked about my placenta- she said "You don't have one yet" and refused to discuss it further. That's why I got my u/s tech friend to give me the correct lingo for this time lol.
I haven't had my beta checked yet.. first dr appointment is Monday. I just heard of the Ramzi theory! I hope it's correct for you :) I'm going to ask about that with my first US too.
I'm trying not to get my hopes up for DH! My baby implanted on the top left and I ovulated from the left side too! Plus my HcG levels are so high. It very well could be DS3, but it is sure a compelling coincidence! My next US is in 3 weeks. I'll be 13 weeks 5 days- eek! We are having blood drawn then too for MaterniT21! So excited [emoji4]!

Me too!!! That's exactly what has happened to me. . I'm trying very hard not to give myself hope. I've picked out a boy name and have only pinned boy nurseries, etc. I doubt I'm going to be able to get the harmony testing, etc because I'm not 35 so that stinks. Was hoping to have the results before our disney trip in June (or during) to be able to shop there but not sure it's possible. We have a family history of spina bifida and scoliosis but don't think they are risk factorsQuote:

I always thought left side sleeper = girl and right side sleeper = boy too. I always slept in my right side with my boys. I became a left side sleeper due to DS2 needing me to sleep with him when he wakes. Who knows anyway! I don't think these things sway much

I've always been a left side sleeper and have only made boys, so either I'm backwards or that wives tale is bunk lol :-)
So I got woken up from putting DS2 to bed with HORRIBLE heartburn! It started at 5:00pm and I took my two doses of Zantac (Tums stopped working for me). I called the after hours nurse and she told me to take either 2 Tbsp of Mylanta/Maalox, or 20mg of Pepcid (Famotidine). So far I think the Mylanta did the trick. Ugh! If it's not one thing it's another! This baby better be the sweetest, most flexible, cuddly baby after all I've been through so far [emoji4]!
Happy Mother's Day ladies [emoji253]

Hi ladies :) and happy Mother's Day
Need to confirm pregnancy with blood work, so hopefuy this isn't too premature. I will be due mid-January 2016.
I was feeling slight cramps during the 2ww, headaches and getting random pimples which I have never gotten (past pregnancies or af).
I have zero appetite and everything tastes too salty and spicy. Is this a function of swaying pink?
Happy Mother's Day!
It is really hard not to look into all those signs and OWT.
My first US will be on Friday, can't wait anymore. Looks like i will only have 11 week us and 15 week us, so there is no nub shot for me.
i will ask about the blood test but I doubt they will let me do that since I'm not over 35 yet.
Have anyone heard about the blood test TellMeBoyorGirl? Is it another scam?
The waiting game is sooooo hard:)
I have insomnia with this pregnancy. I'm tossing and turning all night. I'm usually a tummy sleeper and that's already uncomfortable for me :( and I can't sleep past 6 anymore.. anyway.. happy mothers day!!
Feeling worried now. Since Friday I have felt like I have been having hot flushes and stomach pains and felt nauseous. I thought it was the start of pregnancy symptoms. This morning I feel fine. It was either a virus or I'm not pregnant anymore. I've had no spotting. Should I be worried? Last time my symptoms didn't start till around 6 1/2 weeks

I wouldn't worry since you haven't had any spotting. Pregnancy symptoms can ebb and flow. I would at be are your OB or midwife to have beta HcG levels drawn, if you're worried.
Hang in there! I know it's hard not to over analyze every twinge, ache, and symptom.

I have an appointment Thursday. I will maybe ask then. I hate blood tests though 😯

Hey girls! Huge congrats to everyone here! Hoping for everyone to get their happy & healthy desired gender :fx:
I just tested positive today, after what seemed to be a looong time lol, this was a big surprise so am still very shocked. Have decided not to tell anyone yet as DH and I still need to process this event and don't want others triggering my GD with their silly comments. Think I'm having a bloodtest tomorrow morning to see how my levels are. And then phone the hospital for my meds and monitoring. Eleena, like you I also had hot flushes, but they are gone now. I think mine were caused because I had a really bad cold last week, with loads of sweating involved. Now I'm cold again, as usual lol.
Any other girls out here who had a surprise BFP? I didn't sway and my plan was to go HT to ensure gender. I have been longing for a daughter since my first baby, a girl, passed away. We went on to have 2 gorgeous boys. DH was fine with two kids, but I wanted to try one more time for a girl. The plan was to go to CZ next year, but this baby had other plans, cheeky little thing! :HH:
Hi Dana. Welcome to the thread.sorry about your baby girl passing away.
I hate the not knowing and waiting till Thursday is gonna kill me. I just hope she doesn't fob me off like every other doctor and say it's nothing to worry about e.t.c. It just doesn't seem right how I have no stomach ache or nausea today. I will see how I feel tomorrow.
<a href="http://lmtm.lilypie.com/A7Nop3. png" /a>
Welcome Dana, congratulations on your bfp!
Eleena I wouldn't worry about losing the baby if you haven't passed clots or blood. My symptoms are worse some days then better the next. Try not to stress! It's not good for you or baby!
So glad you get to join us Dana!
Eleena- I know it's hard to worry or to read into things. My nausea comes and goes and doesn't stay constantly, and I'm 10 weeks 3 days! I think once you have your appointment and get betas drawn, you might have a better peace of mind.
Hang in there honey! I think this time you have a healthy, sticky bean growing in there!

I'm very behind in reading this thread.. Just wanted to wish all the US girls Happy Mother's Day! I celebrated yesterday (being down under we're ahead by about a day).
I'm just waiting to get my blood taken. This is it girls! In about a week I should know the results of chromosome testing AND the gender! Fingers crossed for a healthy baby and I'll leave the rest to fate. Hopefully my sway worked and if not then I have a very special boy who was meant to be with us. Wish me luck!!!!!

That is so exciting Sunbuny! I have 3 weeks until my US and blood draw. Then we will know what we are having in 4 weeks! 6/10 we will know for sure, but we may have a good idea with our US!
I sure hope you have a pinkie in there Sunbuny!

I'm feeling the baby move! It is a little stronger than flutters! I love it- it makes me feel everything is ok! I'm falling deeply in love with this baby [emoji4]!!
How is everyone else doing/feeling?

I can't wait to feel my baby moving!! That's the best part of pregnancy for me. Today is my Dr's appointment. I'm anxious to see if they know why I'm spotting, hoping all my levels are good. I feel hungover all day, which really sucks. I can't wait to be in the 2nd trimester! It's my favorite.
Keep us updated Seabee! I hope all is well with you and baby!
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
I will for sure! It's really light and barely there anymore.. so I'm not as worried about it.
Ow how cute you feel baby move already, XX! I love it when thos elittle ones flutter around. Not so much when they weight 9 lbs and try to kick their way out through my ribs lol.
Seabee, spotting is never nice to see during pregnancy! I had it with Ds2 and was so worried. Appearently I had a yeast infction which caused the spotting. I hope it's a similar reason for you and baby is alright!
Sunbuny, wow in a week already!! What type of testing did you do? I'm stil contemplating it. It's so very expensive to do and with the move I just can't justify spending this much on something I will find out eventually. Unless there is a medical reason of course. But it's hard and I really wish I could find out now!! lol
I haven't been so well today. Saw my gp this morning about seeing blind spots and she referred me to the hospital to see if I haven't had a stroke. Will be at the hospital the entire day tomorrow for scans, bloodwork and what not. I really don't think it's been a stroke, but a type of migraine. But still want this checked out.
Funny you say that about the yeast infection. I just used the cream 2 days ago and the spotting has been much less. I'm hoping that's the reason for it as well. I hope everything is okay with you, that sounds so scary :/ sending prayers your way that it's nothing serious ♡
Good luck with the Dr Seabee and with the scan Dana.
Are you feeling better XX?
The blood test I had was for some chromosomes abnormality like down syndrome, Edwards syndrome and several other things. Results apparently take 5 days. It is pricey but I have to pay either way for testing, whether it be the older less reliable testing or this newer one.
Wishing everybody a great day! And good health the you and your babies xxx
