Feb-May 2011 Mommies

Joli - Not too much longer to wait. How far will you be when you go for a scan?
Im with you on the "looking preg thing" I am so bloated and look about 5 months pregnant already. I was really hoping to be one of these thin pregnant women with a nice round bump. But It looks like its going pear shaped already
I think MS is here now. I woke up at 4am feeling absolutely terrible. Managed to get back to sleep and then again at 6am when I got out of bed. Not feeling good.
Ive only been able to stomach toast with bovril on.

Meags - When you getting your counts back?

Sue, Kimika, Cath, Lucy - HI!!

What happened to the rest of the ladies: Didi, Driekie, Fawhaway, Chantel????

Morning Ladies . I'm still here. Our internet at home is used up for the month and I wasn't at work yesterday.

Welcome Lucy - I'm so HAPPY for you! Wishing you a wonderful pregnancy. You guys must be so thrilled.

Cathm - how's the nauseous? I'm really lucky with regards to that with this pregnancy. Nothing yet. Just can't drink coffee!

Girls I'm just sooooooo tired still. Sjoe I can't remember being this tired with the girls!

Meags - how are you - are the pains better now? DH will have to understand that you can't just go everywhere now that you are preggars. With regards to gas - hmmmm I'm glad hubby is working late he he

Kimika - did you order that gender test??

Tazzy - nice scan . Going for my scan on 7 August. Can't wait now.

I know with each pregnancy they say you show sooner, but jinne most of my clothes are already TIGHT and I'm only about 8 weeks! I'm still trying to hide it as I didn't inform my boss as yet. I'm a bit nervous about telling him. He's very anti pregnant women / women with small children working.

Girls I've been chosen by Living & Loving mag to do my pregnancy diary. They will take photos right through my pregnancy and then publish it once jelly bean has been born. We had our first photo shoot yesterday. I'm quite excited about that.

meags - Im not that clued up with the ins and outs of progesterone. But Im sure it cant do any harm in taking it if you dont need it.

Judging by your HCg counts I think you've calculated correctly. Im so excited for your first scan. You must ask for an internal, it will be lot clearer.

so I got the tablets. 1 tablet twice a day...guessing it's orally.

Also was sneaky and had another HCG and progesterone blood test. they refused to do it unless I put the doctor's details on the form so I REALLY hope she wont be angry with me for going ahead with these tests without her asking for them!!!

Even if the progesterone levels are ok, I am going to finish this box (that's ok right??) as it was expensive and surely it cant do any harm?

Tazzy, trying to get an appointment for Wednesday, Thursday or Friday next week. I assume I'll be 6w3 days by the wednesday. Imagine if my dates are completely wrong!

Lucy - nice hcg & Prog count. I was hoping somebody would go for a prog count as I was worried my gynae was fibbing. He was trying to get it into my head yesterday that my count was really high...148!! So i guess he was right

Meags - Nice to see you're back in SA. You can normally see a heart beat from 6 weeks or so. I was 6 weeks 4 days yesterday and the heartbeat was very strong.

Sue - I know how you feel about the sleepiness! I have a 1 hour sleep every afternoon and then in bed by 8pm too. But I do wake up early hours of the morning feeling horribly sick. Im not the kind of person who vommits easily so I rather lie in bed feeling nauseous.

lucy thanks for that and awesome count!!!!!!!
