Hi Ladies!! Jess: I'm
Sorry to hear about the clotting and that you're High risk but I agree with Jen that just means that you're going to be getting extra attention!! Which is great!! And o my You're 9 wks ALREADY!!! You're so close to 2nd trimester, GO LITTLE BEAN!!!

Jen: Dosent it feel good to feel like a pregnant women again instead of a sick zombie!! Your little bean is def kicking your butt which is always a Great Thing!! I'm glad the zofran is working for you! And your DH and you would be in shock like me and mine were.

Deb: Go for it!! BD!! I BD 3days after AF left up until testing. Bc everytime I turned around I had cm dripping somewhere so I felt the same as you, I figured they'll just have to be lying around until "O" occur, the more the better, and hopefully your body will eat up 2 sperm men like mine did!! I know it's going to eat up something....watch out Deb's DH!!

AFM: Well my m/s has ceased some. I still get nauseated and tired but the last vomitting session was two days ago so I'm happy about that Bc that feeling of throwing up sucks!! My DH is sooo excited still! All he ever talk about Is the twins and what we're going to do and who they're going to look like and blah blah blah blah

Which I love, so ya'll know I need my beans to pull through Bc I never saw him this happy except on our wedding day. I'm staying positive and I have a feeling that these will be our miracle babies at least I hope so. I have my 3rd U/S this coming Wed.so I need these days to rush by I'm also rushing them for you Deb!! Until Then Thanks ladies for all the support and ecouragement!! This is the best group ever Bc everyone is always there for each other, Thanks Ladies!!

Hi ladies, I hope your weekend is going well. I expected my opk smiley face today, but no dice... We'll BD anyway, so maybe tomorrow!

by **MrsR** » Sat Jul 21, 2012 5:14 pm

A short delay is sometimes a good thing, isn't it? Get even more spermies spread far and wide, ready and waiting

Although we don't like long delays. They just add to our stress.

Ugh! Nausea is breaking through the drugs now so hopefully it is reaching a peak. A few people have said that week 9 was the worst and then it improved, so I'm hoping for that. We're going away for a long weekend in 2 weeks, I'd like to feel better by then.

Jen - I hope your naseau subsides soon so you can enjoy the rest of your pregnancy.

Lenay - only a few more days until your next U/S. I hope you get to hear both of those heartbeats!

Jess - how's everything going will you?

I finally got my smiley face this morning. DH's entire family is coming over today for his mom's birthday, but after they leave we'll be getting in some much needed QT. We did BD yesterday and of course today. I usually have a short surge so I should O today, but if I don't we'll go for it tomorrow too. Also, I found out my OBGYN is switching practices. I guess I need to find out where she is going. I hope she's not retiring. Ugh!

Hey ladies!

Deb, glad to hear your positive OPK showed up! Hopefully all that baby dancing paid off this month and you'll be getting your BFP in a few weeks.

Jen, I'm so sorry to hear that you've been so sick. I guess it's a comfort, because it means you've got a strong baby in there, but man, I can't imagine feeling that way. Hopefully that will go away soon...

Lenay, I can't wait to hear about what happens at your next ultrasound! When is it again?

As for me, I feel pretty great. I'm still pretty tired most of the time, but my minimal m/s is gone (except for a little bit of a gagging feeling sometimes), and my boobs are even starting to feel less tender! I've read that the placenta can start taking over as early as 10 weeks, so I'm hoping that's what's happening. Hallelujah! I can't believe I'm 10 weeks pregnant already...only 2 more weeks til my next ultrasound.

Hi Ladies!

Jess:Wow!! 10 wks!!! That is very exciting!!! That's def a milestone Bc now you're just weeks away from being in 2nd trimester!! GO YOU!!!! I know you're counting those days down until your scan day, Im rooting that it will be all you want it to be!!!

Deb: YAYYY for Positive OPK!!! It sounds like you are BD like rabbits!!! Which is Awesome!!!! I can't wait for you to scream that BFP!!

Jen: I'm sorry the sickness is breaking thru the medicines...Are you sure you're NOT HAVING TWINS?!!! I do hope you feel better soon!

AFM: m/s has ceased. Nausea here and there but not feeling as sickly as before. Now I have prego brain, I'm forgetting everything including taking my progesterone gel at night. My 3rd U/S is this Wed. praying I will hear my twins HB beating strong, so that I won't have to go bk for my next U/S until to find out the sex. Going every week, is def making the weeks go slower than usual. O well I guess i don't have any other choice but to play the waiting game...here we go....

by **MrsR** » Mon Jul 23, 2012 11:04 pm

Good luck for Wednesday, Lenay. Photo, please!

Meanwhile, Deb is now in the TWW, I imagine? Ah, the waiting game. Thinking of you.

Jess, glad you're starting to feel much better. Thanks for the sympathy, it's always appreciated!

I'm not too sick today (after meds and acupuncture!). Had my first OB appointment and everything is going well so far. Nuchal scan is booked for 3 weeks time. OB is a ridiculously kind person who always makes me feel better about things so talking to him was therapeutic in itself.

Now to wait for Deb's BFP.

by **Deb34** » Tue Jul 24, 2012 6:27 am

Lenay - good uck tomorrow at your u/s. Let us know how it goes!

Jess - wow, this time has flown by! I can't believe you're almost out of your 1 St trimester already.

Jen - I am glad the acupuncture and medsare helping. Hopefully, you won't need them after the first trimester

I am officially in the two week wait. My temp rose today so I think I O'd yesterday. Of course I'll need a couple more days to high temps to confirm that, but my boobs are sore so I am pretty confident I O'd.

Now all I can do is wait! Good thing we have a busy week and weekend planned so hopefully I won't stress too much.

by **Deb34** » Tue Jul 24, 2012 6:28 am

Lenay - I meant good "luck"

by **Deb34** » Thu Jul 26, 2012 4:53 am

Hi ladies, it's official, I am in the TWW or for me the 11 day wait....

I O'd on monday so if :af:

Isn't here by next Friday, I'll test. I am going to stop temping tomorrow so this next week is not consumed by the possiblity. It stresses me out to think about what may or may not be. We had good timing, with BD on O date, -1,-2, -4, and -5. But we've had that before so I don't want to get my hopes too high.

We've got a cookout on sat and a concert on sunday so we'll keep busy. Monday is my doctor's appointment so I should also get my questions together because somehow when I am there I forget my questions.

I hope all is going well with each of you.

Lenay - I hope you got to hear 2 heartbeats yesterday!

Praying for all of you!

Hi ladies:

Jess and Jen y'all two are moving along yal will be in 2nd trimester in no time!! How the m/s going?

Deb: WOHOO!!!! For you TWW, really came fast!! Yea I agree no tempting that has to be exhausting and emotional. I do hope you got that BFP, you def deserve it!! Glad you're going for your testing hopefully you want need anything Bc you'll already have a bean baking in that oven!! I agree get those questions together,I do the same thing, have a million worries and questions b4 I get there but when she gives me the news I forget everything, GL MA'AM!!

AFM: Well yesterday was very exciting and sad at the same time. Good news is I hear my Little turkey HB @ 162, o I couldve cried, all 3 of my pregnancies that's the first time I ever heard a HB from any if them. Thank God. The sad part is, the other bean had stop growing,I didnt get to hear the HB. But my OB informed me that the one that Heart was just beating away Is progressing awesomely and beautifully. I still have to go on for my little bean I still have and still Thanking God everyday!!

by **MrsR** » Thu Jul 26, 2012 3:59 pm

Lenay, I'm so sorry about your little number 2 bean. It's so sad that this happens sometimes. You're right though, you need to carry on for your healthy, growing baby. I hope this is the first and last setback for your pregnancy. I'm sending you positive vibes, always

Deb, no temping, I like it. You might even lose track of the days (or is that too much to hope?). Testing around August 6, then?

Jess, glad to hear you're feeling so well. Long may it last!

I'm still sick but I'm trying to be hopeful it will be gone in a few weeks. I did a silly thing and skipped my meds last night before bed as I felt ok. BIG mistake. Didn't sleep well, and woke up gagging. Stood, dry-retching over the kitchen sink while I waited for my toast to cook! Feeling better now I've eaten and taken my morning meds. I won't mess with the program again for at least a week or so, I think. I'll be 10 weeks tomorrow.

by **Deb34** » Fri Jul 27, 2012 4:55 am

Lenay - I am so sorry to hear about your #2 bean. I can only imagine what you and DH are feeling. I am glad that #1 bean is progressing beautifully. You're right about staying strong. Like Jen said, I hope this is the last setback.

Jen - 10 weeks already, how wonderful! When is your u/s, I think that is coming up soon...

Jess - I hope all is well with you and your little one.

Well today was my last day to temp. I am DPO 4 today and temp rose another .5 degrees today so I definitely ovulated on Monday. I will not temp for the remainder of the TWW. If :af:

doesn't show up by sat, Aug 4 th, I'll POAS.

Happy weekend to you all!

by **MrsR** » Sun Jul 29, 2012 12:31 am

Deb - August 4, great, it's in the diary :wink:

Good plan.

Lenay - hope you and DH are feeling ok after your happy/sad news last week.

Jess - 11 weeks! Nearly in T2!

I worked on Saturday, and today I've been cleaning the house all day, with DH's help, thank goodness! (As my mum said when she saw how sick I was with m/s, "Thank God you don't have a useless husband!") He's cooked a stew that smells amazing. One thing I'm thankful for is that despite being pretty sick, I haven't been as bothered by smells as some people. It doesn't increase my nausea (maybe that's because it's pretty much constant!)

Just found out that my best friend is pregnant, she's 8 weeks, after a m/c a couple of months ago so I'm really happy for her. We live in different states now but we see each other several times a year and it will be so cool to have babies the same age, fingers crossed.

Hope everyone's weekend was a bit less working and a bit more having fun than mine! This whole thing is really dragging now, I want to fast-forward a little bit until the sick part is over. Next scan is my nuchal on August 14, so that's still a couple of weeks away. Should really look like a baby by then.

by **jadencoal** » Mon Jul 30, 2012 6:47 am

Hey ladies!

Lenay, so sorry to hear about the second baby, but glad to hear the first one is doing so well. That's a precious gift in itself, so congratulations!

Deb, looking forward to waiting out this week with you. I have everything crossed for your BFP!

Jen, hopefully your nausea hits the road soon. It really doesn't sound like much fun at all! I've been a bit of a slacker on the housework myself, mostly because of the fatigue. Hopefully that will ease up soon.

As for me, this past week has been a weird one. I was feeling fine, and then all of a sudden my symptoms came rushing back this weekend. My boobs are just as sore as ever, I'm exhausted all the time, and food grosses me out again. Ugh. Come on, second trimester! Only two weeks to go...

Also, my NT scan is set for 7 August, so...8 more days til we get another peek at this bean.
