Hi everyone!
I got a positive on the home test I did last night :) Still need to confirm at the Drs but I figure I'll be due around the 15th!
Excited!! whoop whoop
PS I already have a 6 year old boy but it feels like so long ago it's all new again lol

Hi everyone
I got a BFP on Fri after TTC 8 months. For those of you who've got bloods back - did they contact you & tell you your results, or did you have to ring & ask? I had a blood test Mon but doc said it was to find out my blood type, so I feel like a bit of a knob if I ring up asking for HCG levels and they say, "er, you're o+"! I'm due 12 June.

Congratulations ladies Dunedinite - I only knew my HCG levels because we had done IVF and they get you to do blood tests every few days to monitor the levels and chart the progress. You could ring your doctor and ask for the hcg results from your blood test and if they didn't check for that then if you really want to know you could ask them to refer you for HCG bloods, however, they only really mean anything if they are taken over a period of time as it is the amount they are increasing by that is being monitored. I could be wrong but I don't think that they worry about it too much if you have conceived naturally unless you have a history of miscarrages. I hope that helps.

Unfortunately we had some bad news today... Tuesday last week my HCG was 96 and today it was a lowly 3, so little Egbert is now longer with us I'm doing fine though, obviously sad but am still grateful to have accomplished what our IVF Dr didn't think was possible! Wishing you all the best with your pregnancies xxx

Thanks Biddy :-) im an old regular on here but haven't posted much in the last year,3 kids has kept me busy ;-) I had a scan on wednesday which only put me in my 4th week,amazing considering I tested positive,with a nice dark line which came up really quickly and at 6pm,two weeks ago,I always get early results. But so im very early along and I think due around the 19th...the day my son was due three years ago haha,oh boy!

Hi everyone, Wow there's lots of us already We are due 5th June (snap with many of you!) Had a miscarriage in March this year (at 12 weeks) in my first pregnancy, but we're happily back on the horse, yay! We live overseas, but will be home in NZ by the time this baby arrives (if, fingers crossed, it sticks). Things are done differently here. I'm being put through an early pregnancy clinic because of the miscarriage first time around, so hopefully will get a scan around 8 weeks. Did our test at 5 weeks, both over the moon! Looking forward to the next months with you, Em

I am feeling alright at the moment, sometimes a little light headed. Last time it really hit me at 8 weeks so I have that to look forward to! We are telling family this weekend. Have told a few friends, I am terrible with secrets!

I am terrible with secrets (well ones about myself) too! I am dyyyyying to tell my family but dont wana do it over phone/skype, and I dont wana tell friends incase it gets back to my parents. Its my first too. Am waiting for friends/colleagues to pick up on fact Im off the booze (I do like a good sav!:)) We had a developement session at work yesterday and all I could think is "see ya later suckers".... (even though I will go back after mat leave).

I'm feeling really good! Actually, it's worryig me a bit - the last time I was exhausted, nauseous, very sore chest, and huge skin breakouts. My skin broke out a lot last week and seems to be clearing up. I am wondering if my hormones are fizzling out and we're in for more bad news this time. Waiting for an appointment hopefully next week some time for an 8 week scan, will see how we go. I think last time the nausea really hit during week 8, and ramped right up then. Fingers crossed!
I found it REALLY hard to keep the secret first time round, this time much easier. Also, being overseas makes it a lot easier to not tell family. We're going to surprise them when we come home at Christmas with the news.
PS: I'd like to join the private thread if someone could PM me the password? Thanks!

Well I went to an early pregnancy clinic today (they said they would monitor me after miscarraige last time)... and I got to see a little fluttering heartbeat. Certainly doesn't look like much in there! But it's THERE :-)
They put my due date back a few days so now due 9th June. Yay!
