Dreaming Pink Due Date Group: TTC and Beyond

GeCon - Thanks for adding me. Yeah, I don't want to get my hopes up about the test. I do know that both of the ladies who found out at 12 weeks are local, but I don't know if they have my doc. That would be unlikely! But, I guess it's possible that they have different docs and for whatever reason, it's starting to be more common. That's what I'm hoping (obviously)! But, my DS3 is only 13 months, and my doc did not offer it when I was 12 weeks with him...which would have been fall 2011. We'll see!

Afm - More morning sickness this AM. Definitely a new pg symptom for me...yuck, I slept terribly! Woke up 4 times to pee, and really felt nauseous for hours. I may have to try protein! Although, as crazy as it sounds, it's nice to feel pregnant, considering it's so early for me, ya know?

I hear you about the nausea, myrainbowgirl. I keep telling myself that at least it means that my hormones are busy with the pregnancy.

I would ask the doctor about the test though as in: "Two of my friends who live local had this test done as part of the routine check up..." No harm in asking, is there?

Unplanned bd this morning. CM was watery but just a small amount. This evening has suddenly changed to clear egg white consistency and small streaks of fresh blood and low stomach feels a little tender from this evening. Wondering if all is okay and was only because of reduced CM this morning. Blah... Why can't things straightforward?

As long as there is no fresh blood "flowing", I would still go with ovulation spotting. Try not to stress about it. Of course if there is more blood or pain or you are getting concerned, seek professional advice.

Are you charting? Have you got a link to your chart?

Bunnywabbit, it's never good seeing blood when you're not expecting it. Hopefully it's just ov spotting or from dtd. Thinking of you

I finally plucked up the courage to post my scan pics after a few pink guesses. It's even worse hearing 'can't see a nub sorry!' Grrr!! Perhaps it's best though to ground me firmly as I was getting a bit carried away dreaming of a girl. I need the next 3 weeks before my anomaly scan on 18 July to accept hearing a boy. Just because nothing's shouting boy on my scan pic, doesn't mean there isn't one in there! I don't know what I'll do for number 4 if it is a boy, as I did such a full on sway. I'm getting myself in a right tizzy imagining the worst for everything at the moment. Urgh Sorry for the downer.

GeCon - Nausea came back tonight at dinner. Eating didn't help much. Thought I might actually be coming down with something...several close friends' kids have gotten a stomach bug this week, so something's going around. But I feel fine now! Just being pg, I guess. Yeah, I definitely plan to mention it at my 8-wk checkup...trying not to get my hopes up. I live pretty far from my parents (we won't see each other till Christmas), so it would be SO fun to wait and announce the pregnancy when we know gender (if it is at 12 weeks). But I don't think I could wait till 20 weeks to announce it to them!

Bunnywabbit - Unless you're feeling badly, I wouldn't worry too much. I have occasional spotting during my cycles as well. It's probably O spotting! Good luck, hope this is it for you!

Dreamofpink - Yeah, that would be frustrating! Try to think positive! I'm a little confused...are you having #3 or #4? Oooh, your scan is so close! If I'm not able to find out until 20 weeks, I won't know till October...OMG.

Thanks Gecon, thanks girls. Had a little very low stomach tenderness which has gone now. I'm not charting temps, no. Could so see that driving me insane! Knowing my luck I'd forget to do it on a regular basis and muck it up. All I do is POAS and wait for BFPs! Trying my best not to worry but am very wary about any 'unusual/unexpected' bleeds, especially after the m/c. But I guess that sways blue, right?

When was the last time you did a pg test? Did you have a normal AF this time? OPKs are positive when you're pg... And spotting is really common. Maybe worth poas just to rule out a surprise pg? Atomic has mentioned how she lost one twin, thought it was AF, and didn't realize for a while that she was still pg with the second twin. It can happen!

I didn't know about spotting swaying blue. I did think that pg immediately after a m/c sways pink...

I tested 2 weeks after m/c with a digital test. Came up negative. Also tested twice (1 and 3 days before AF started) - negative. Going to retest in around 2 weeks as I'm on 2ww. Thinking my cervix was low when we bd so thinking it was minor abrasion especially since I can't really 'prepare'... Seems to be settled now.

Sorry, I meant the stressing over the spotting swaying blue! I had a full cycle go after the m/c so not sure that m/c will still be swaying pink for me anymore.

Ladies, if you had MS, did it come and go? This if the first pregnancy that I've had it, so just wanting to hear your experiences. I had what I thought was MS the last 2 mornings, for hours before I got up, but not so much this morning! Later in the day, felt some nausea, but overall felt ok today. At first I was a little worried, but then I was soooo tired today, boobs hurt, and had some round ligament stretching, so that made me feel better. Can't wait till I get to see baby's heartbeat!
