Good for you Tiffani! I really hope you are pleasantly surprised with pink. Good luck to you too 3M&AL! Pink to go around for everyone!!

Surgena,
I feel the same way!! I was sick with my boys and deathly ill with my girl that I lost but I'm so early i keep reminding myself I didnt feel sick the last time til around 6 weeks!
As far as gender goes, I don't have my hopes up as I feel like I had the chance at a girl and lost it :/ I also kept thinking there was no way it was girl but it turned out to be...
also, being on the progesterone suppositories I don't know if some things are preg symptoms or just side effects..

but after everything I know I just want a baby at this point and I also think that 4 is my max so I think maybe one more go around if its a boy....

I got my betas done again today.. I hope I can get the results tomorrow and not wait til Monday..

[suregena]

I don't get betas done here... it's a waiting game. Patience. Trying to relax. Hoping my body is doing the right thing and helping get those little cells multiplying and forming parts of a baby.

I've spoken to a midwife briefly and she will ring me in the next week or two to organize when I have my booking in appointment, probably next month sometime.

I am still so early on... but even after 1 successful pregnancy, I can't help but wonder if my body is a failure at getting these embryos going. I guess I should keep my mouth shut and just trust that things will move smoothly! And hope that the two miscarriages before my son won't repeat again.

Miscarriages are so draining.

[spinningmadly]

They are draining. I am watched really closely this time because of my previous still birth and possible clotting issues... I've never had betas etc done before .. I don't know if it's more or less stressful to do them

Welcome to the new on in this thread - congrats on the BFP's!

Surgena - try and eats lots of pregnancy super foods - lots of fresh fruit and veg, make sure your taking some supplements, and think positive

Tiffani and three men - how exciting with your scans! i hope you both have a happy day!!! Make sure you keep us posted We will be going for a gender scan at 15 weeks as well, i am trying to tell myself its a boy Ive even brought a little paid of blue booties - i don't want to feel any disappointment. At the moment i feel like i won't be upset, but i worry that i might feel a tad sad at the the time if i hear boy. Poor DH - i reckon it will really get him down, he won't show it, but deep down he will be sad if its not a girl.

Ive been feeling really tired as well and the boobs are so so so sore!!!!!!

[Rosie85]

Tiff my Dh is the same and doesn't understand why it bothers me so much for this babe to be a girl, he says I am crazy and to just stop worrying about what I can't change. I just want to slap him....

Lassie, that's a grand idea..buying those booties. Getting excited for a boy could help ease the GD if it is indeed another boy, I may do the same and buy something cute and blue.

I really feel like I am carrying a girl. Things are so different for this pregnancy and my first two were so similar. I know people say that doesn't mean anything but I know people where it did mean something. I feel more connected to the girl name I have picked out and to girl clothes when i look at them in the store so hopefully that is my intuition saying something!

I went to the bathroom this morning and when I wiped there was scant brown discharge. I've thrown a pantyliner on just to pay attention if anymore happens.

This is NORMAL around 4ish weeks - right? You see, even though I've been pregnant (three times, technically) before, with my son's pregnancy I had still been post miscarriage so was so fixated on my period starting that I never attributed anything to pregnancy so likely wasn't paying attention.

Also, a very tall IKEA CD bookcase tumbled over onto my son this morning... the little shelves and massive amounts of CDs showering him. His arm got pinned to a chair. He was a little shaken but his arm is okay... but now I have this big pile of CDs and stuff to pick up and pull together but I'm too paranoid because of the light spotting. Grrrr.....

AND I won't see my husband until tomorrow night. So I can't just leave it there all weekend.

[Cinss]

Oh suregena im not sure about spotting at 4 weeks, hopefully its nothing to worry about. I had a m/c before DD and i didnt have spotting. For me it was just like a very heavy period starting at 10 weeks.

[Butterfly Spirit]

Surgena, I hope it's just implantation still! I would leave the cd thing there...or have your friend come over and help..if you are spotting you should take it easy.
