That's what I keep trying to think I will be much more relaxed after I hear a heartbeat and knowing that I won't get to until 10 weeks stresses me a little but I think when I do hear it I'll be thinking girl because this pregnancy is so different.

How are all you ladies doing today? I'm feeling very down and worried because I took my Detect5 test today, and it didn't show much of a progression from last week (7 days ago). The line at 2000miu is definitely darker, but not by much, and although there's a slight shadow at 10,000miu, when I compare it to last week's, I think I see a shadow there too. To make matters worse, my back has started aching - it could be due to the fact I was just sledding with the kids, but of course I'm worried it means a m/c is starting.

I have a strong feeling this is a boy too and with my others I knew they were all girls! I also never knew I was pregant so early on either but this time despite the hcg only being a 3 lol I just knew I was..

mocha i always felt great at 6 or 7 weeks. its because the numbers aren't going crazy anymore. sometimes they start to slow down a little at this point.
trust your intuition ladies. i noticed mothers intuition is right but you need to be careful... make sure you aren't confusing your desired gender with what you feel in your heart.

[TTC5]

girlmom yes that is so true, maybe I am making myself feel this is a boy this time?

My nausea comes and goes, I had bad for a patch for 2 hours earlier, and then , without warning, it left like it came....

Mocha, I'm sure your baby is fine and healthy in there, but understandable that you're worried....

TTC5, glad to hear your numbers are doubling nicely, or more than doubling!

Jamie, glad to hear job's gone well, and yay about no MS! I wouldn't worry about it...just enjoy not having it!

Thanks, ladies. I wish I could get my pre-m/c innocence back, but I think I'm going to be a trainwreck this whole pregnancy...or at least until the first trimester is long past.

I did start to feel quite queasy as the day went on, which made me feel better. I got quite car sick on our way to a birthday party across town, and I just have an unsettled tummy in general. It hasn't affected my appetite, though!

Mocha oh how I would love that innocence too. That was taken away with my second (loss) pregnancy
