@prayingfor1 congratulations on your bfp. Glad things are progressing well. I have not had any boob leakage. They were super sore to begin but in the last week or so they have started to calm down.

For the sickness I've resorted to lemon & ginger tea which does help.
I am hoping I get a scan date soon as my stomach is feeling a little big for my dates and now OH and I are worried we may have twins on the way.... which although is a blessing will be financial suicide for us.

@gemstone you'll have to give us an update after your scan. It will Venice to hear that everything is going well.

@Tashuurr Yes I'll let you know how it goes Tues, I also have the inkling about twins but hope it's just me imagining things! Never had it when pregnant with our daughter though, so very much looking forwards to the scan and also getting dates confirmed.

Keep us posted too when you get your scan date!

Thanks for tip on lemon and ginger tea and preggie pops will look out for some, got some sherbet lemons yesterday which help temporarily. Also got some travel sickness wrist bands but need to check the pressure point as haven't been helping yet!

@Prayingfor1 that's great things are progressing well! My cycle was also strange and didn't ovulate until cd52, so just proves even if your cycles are random you can still get pregnant!

Hope you ladies are having a good weekend :)

I hope you both are having a good weekend as well.

@Tashuurr- I'll have to keep the lemon and finer tea in mind. I'm glad to hear that your breast soreness is lessening. It gives me hope lol.

@Gemstone2907- I also want to hear how your scan goes. It's is weird how with strange cycles we still managed to get pregnant isn't it?

Also, I had to laugh reading the last couple of replies because I too have been thinking that I may be having twins based on how extreme my symptoms have been. Also, I felt my usual left sided ov pain and then the next day I had what felt like ov pain on the right side. Tashuurr, I agree that it would be an incredible blessing but that we would have to greatly rethink our finances as well.

Ain't that mad that we all think we're having twins. Hopefully it's just a crazy thought.
Today the nausea turned into full blown vomiting!! I'm so sad! I hate being sick. It's left me with the most sorest throat from all the fetching.
My tummy is starting to feel very heavy. Getting lots of pressure and I swear I'm starting to feel flutters. Last night i was laying in bed and I could feel the heartbeat to the very front of my tummy. It was very strong and fast. Definitely not my heart rate as I was feeling my pulse and it didn't match.... crazy right?!
I'm around 7 weeks and 3 days. Feels like I'm 20 weeks though haha.

@gemstone super excited for you for tomorrow. Hope your scan goes well x

@Tashuurr- It would be crazy if we all turned out to actually be having twins!
So I see my OB on Thursday and I'm kind of upset because I called today to ask if they would be willing to fax orders over to have my progesterone and everything checked, since they had just told me that I would need to see a fertility Dr to conceive, and they said no. They will give me all of the orders on Thursday, I just am worried because I just found out, none of my Drs had said this before, but because I have PCOS and high testosterone levels I am 3xs more likely to miscarry if I'm not using progesterone and another med. I wish I have never found that out online but I did, so now I'm worried and upset that they won't do the blood work before my appt. I just feel like if they won't do the bloodwork ahead of time that just puts an even longer delay before I could start using the meds if I need them.

@tashuur it's not crazy at all feeling that as I have also been feeling odd movements here and there in my tummy in the last week... Apparently you can feel things move sooner with twins haha! how funny we all suspect possible twins, the odds must be incredibly slim if we all were! I wouldn't mind if it's was our first but not sure how I'd cope with 2 plus our daughter! Probably mostly by lying in a dark room haha

Not long to go now, 4pm tomorrow eek! Just want to know all is ok, but still getting symptoms and tummy feels/looks like it's popped out since yesterday so hoping all is good and well.

Sorry to hear about your nausea has turned to vomiting, it must be really horrible, hopefully it was just a one off. Coconut water is good for sickness, in case you get it again. Have you had to tell your work?

@prayingfor1 I'm sorry to hear you didn't get the response you had hoped for with your doctor, could you ask another doctor there and explain your concerns and see if they'll do the blood work for you?

@Tashuurr- I'm sorry that you are actually vomiting now. I'm like that too, I have no vomited as of yet but any time that I do I get shaky and I cry and it lingers... I hope it doesn't last and you get to feeling better soon.

@ Gemstone2907- Not at that practice no. But if I don't like how she handles things on Thursday then I will call around and find another Dr. Honestly the way her assistant spoke to me today, as if I had done something wrong by pregnant without help... I'm not happy. It's funny because after that I looked at my calender and she didn't even refer me to the specialist until after I had already ovulated. Of course I would wait to see if I was successful before calling! Grr! Lol

@prayingfor1 so sorry to hear that the Drs are dragging their feet sorting out bloods. You may have to resort to a complaint. After all this is your unborn child that is at risk. Hopefully there's a little more insight at your appointment on Thursday.

@gemstone yes my manager knows. I work in a hospital so for health and safety reasons I've had to inform her.

I've felt a lot better this morning. I've managed to make it to work without the usual mass wave of nausea. Praise the lord!

@Tashuurr- I'm very happy to hear that you are feeling a bit better this morning.

@Gemstone2907- Good luck this afternoon! I'm sure it will go fine and be all wonderful news! I'll be waiting to hear the good news.
