Yay kellsz for another crazy lady Lol! Thought I am so stoked to hear your pregnant and your 17 weeks! How has your pregnancy been so far?

I woke at 3 this morning and didn't feel hungry so convinced myself it was over! Since it's the only symptom I get I was totally freaked out! But please tell me all the sort of stuff comes and goes????

Really good so far apart from crazy lady. I still keep my loo paper overnight to check in morning.
I had pretty much no symptoms apart from trowing up when i cleaned my teeth and that varied so dont worry. Symptoms dont mean anything about outcome nor if they come and go. Seriously didnt even have sore boobs

Oh I love you kellsz your exactly what I needed today - had another major melt down at Work cried my does but then felt so much better!

Why don't you check your toilet paper during the night Lol Omg that made me laugh!

A lady on my due October thread just lost hers and yet this morning was starving and felt sick so I do know it really means stuff all!

Did you get hcgs done? How long for?

I had first hcg then another two days later then weekly until 7 week scan.

Yup go to loo in dark else I wake up too much. Had a mate staying and she found loo paper in bath and chucked it was soo embrassing I blamed it on sleep peeing

So freaking out about food today so bad i cant cook but then dont trust DH either

Anthea quiet a few ppl in my due group had no symptoms full stop.

Symptoms come and go i think as your body gets used to the hcg then it doubles again.

I had a lot of bloating which I only see now as a symptom


Posted By: antheawren
Date Posted: 04 February 2016 at 6:56pm
I have this funny sort of hungry feeling that could sometimes be classed as sick but mainly I can't stop eating but that comes and goes! I've also got really light headed a few times now!

Wow kellsz the girls with no symptoms would make you feel heaps better! Everyone on mine so far have them all it seems!

Ha ha Kellsz. I would be horrified! Are you freaking out about what not to eat? Or what you've been eating so far?

That makes so much sense about adjusting to the hormones then getting symptoms back due to the doubling time.

Anthea that definitely could be a bit of morning sickness. A lot of women feel unwell if they have not eaten enough.

I eat stuff then i freak that its not cooked enough or the packaging wasnt sealed or product containmenanted
Like yesterday at work i did some frozen veges in coconut milk curry in microwave had wee boiling bubbles in milk but now i am worried frozen veg wasnt hot enough to get to temperature kill done or that liquid didnt actually boil enough

Hi Bigbird! 😄
I forgot the other day and had some brie. God it was good! But it was made with pasteurized milk which is ok. Even if it wasn't the risk of infection is small.
I can understand how you're feeling though. Food is something you can control & if you feel like you've done something not quite right it's a real worry.
Just remember some people eat absolute crap & are fine.

I dunno guess I just scared about getting excited and jinxing it?

I so want to be your friend Anthea, is she planning on any scans and is she under a Mw?

Argh brought a Mizone sports water yesterday drunk it and was best before Jun 15. DH reckons it will be okay I hope so it was sealed.


Posted By: antheawren
Date Posted: 07 February 2016 at 7:40am
IT will be fine honey there is nothing actually in there that can harm you they just have to put a best before date on it by law!

She is waiting for a date for a scan now - I want to be like her too! It was almost like she felt guilty for being so care free about it - I said hell no I would give anything to be like you! To not wake every morning and wonder if today is the day I will loose my Baby!

Your allowed to get excited now honey - your getting closer and closer to that safe time and the chances of anything bad happening now are just so small! Like get a decent prize in lotto small!

Ditto what Anthea said about the mizone.
There are so many things that last longer than the dates they put on them.
Had a baked Kumara withh cheese for lunch. Man it was good!! Satisfied my bacon craving last night too. Yum yum.
Few aches & pains today but I've got a cold & a stupid cough which is probably irritating my tummy.

It's full. We just went to that food festival thing I told you about that we're been to before. I ate so much! Some things probably shouldn't have technically speaking but the feijoa sorbet was Bloody amazing!
So Damn hot here I'd like to sleep for a week.
That sounds odd Anthea. Although I remember my midwife showing me how she found the top of my uterus when doing fundal height. And the uterus feels a lot firmer than everything else when pregnant.

I dont wanna scare you but I didnt get shoulder tip pain with my ruptured ectopic infact i didnt know till it burst.

However, your hcg levels and doubling looks too good for ectoptic. Fa told me this time around theh atart off really low and dont double normally at all


Posted By: LP pka Rainyday
Date Posted: 08 February 2016 at 11:39am
That's interesting to know Kellsz. I thought that was a classic sign of ectopic. But as you say Antheas results aren't typical of ectopic.
I've felt queasy all day so far. Only thing that made me feel slightly better was a chai latte. Can't exactly drink those all day! Desperate need of a nana nap this arvo me thinks.

Typically women get very crook with ectopics. Shoulder tip pain is agongy, awful awful pain in your shoulder. Ive only had one.

Anthea bad cramping is pretty common and not always abad thing, good things can cause it in early pregnancy ie lots of strectching and growing.

Rd have you tried lemon or lime in water its fab for nausea.

Been having werid sensations in my womb almost like contractions or a shuder.. but not painful but not like other flutters ive felt

I can't picture what your meaning but I'm sure it's all very normal - maybe Baby is doing somersaults in there!

Are you having a 7 week scan and more HCG till then? They help a wee bit well for a day or so

Just focus on what you know,HCG increasing nicely as it should.


Yeah its a odd feeling,could be flips that would be cool. If only I knew it was I would be so happy.

Hun lots of peoples HCGs dont follow the rule exactly, you still had a good increase. I think its too early to assume anything.

When was the last bloods Anthea? It doesnt always mean a mc if they are lower than expected as it can range from 48-72 hours doubling.

Blood levels look fine Anthea - doubling is only a rough guide, as long as you see a good increase it's fine. Doubling times, as kelz mentioned, can be up to 72 hrs (and some ladies go longer than that) :)

When do our bodies ever do anything according to text book anyway?

Hopefully time flies super fast till your scan then HCGs mean nothing and you can have some relief

Can go both ways. You can get crap results & have a healthy pg and you can start with good results & mc.
My last mc I told you about earlier today I got hcg done because I suspected I was going to mc & result was 74 at 5.5 weeks.
4th pg I got fantastic hcg & saw heart beat at 6 weeks then hcg stopped rising & mc'd. Probably not the answer you want but just my experience & the reason why I didn't get hcgs done this time.

That's OK rd I googled and got the same answer! You would have to think something would be wrong with Baby to loose it after seeing a heart beat ah! It's pretty damn cruel isn't it

These HCG tests are hideous aren't they? Mummystheword - from what I have read that is still well within the normal range at 4 weeks?

With my first pregnancy my levels were pretty low, to the point where my doctor cautioned me to be prepared. I was having threatened miscarriages right until week 16, not fun, but my daughter was born no problem. Second pregnancy had a great HCG at 4 weeks but must have miscarried not long after because was back to 10 by the time they actually found the missed miscarriage at 8 weeks.

Antheawren my doctor got an urgent test so he had my result today, 686? At 4 weeks 2 days I guess thats in the ok range, but like I said, didn't mean much for me last time.

I think we are all going through our own private hell!

That's an awesome rate mount and mummystheword - mount yours must be off the chart!

Hcgs do your Head in don't they yet they are so hard to stop as it does give you reassurance for a small amount of time even if you freak getting them and waiting for the results!

Welcome aboard the crazy train Mount & mummystheword 😄 you both sound like your on track at least on paper.
This seriously is one hell of a journey yet look how many of us are doing it. Desire outweighs the fear.
I started watching the secret life of babies & gave up half way through because it was too cute! nearly cried watching a baby being breast Fed. They really are fascinating.
My darling boy has been very loving lately. Bless him ❤ he must know I need a little extra TLC

Thanks for the welcome ladies. Honestly with baby number 1 i was just easy breezy didnt even realise i was preg until 6 weeks. And now its all hcgs and putting my feet up and all sorts. Paranoid about getting past the point that i miscarried at last time not that ill be out of the woods but its like a milestone in my head.

Welcome and congratulations Mount and mummystheword, it's great you are 4 weeks and 2 weeks as well Mount. I will be following your progress.
I don't like these HCG tests I would rather not know rather than having the stress of it all. I will have to have them weekly through FA though. I am not looking forward to my test on Friday

Also Kellsz I understand your paranoia about food poisoning. If I am concerned about anything I always take an extra probiotic or 2 to help support the immune systems ability to fight the onslaught of bugs.
