September BMB Waiting Room

chichiphin

Well I guess I’ll start this thing... 

I’m a FTM and found out yesterday at 9DPO, so it’s very early but got a stronger positive this morning. I’m also already nauseous so I might be in for one helluva ride. FF says due date is September 5!

Hi omg I was hoping I’d find something like a “waiting room”! Lol.

I found out yesterday at 10 DPO and then a blazing FRER line and digital this morning at 11 DPO. FF due date September 4th!  let’s be friends

eta: I’m also a first time mom

chichiphin

Hi @leafyarch! Sounds like we are both super early to the game here

leafyarch

@chichiphin yes super early! I never thought this would be me lol. Tell me your TTC/BFP story!

Hello ladies!! Super hesitant to post this, but I don’t want to be afraid! I got a very faint line on Friday at 8dpo. The line hasn’t gotten much darker, but definitely keeping my FX that it does. EDD right now is 9/5 (H’s bday!). I’m a STM and *TW this is my third pregnancy. I was in May19, but found out I had a MMC at 13 weeks. PGAL Brain already sucks. End TW* So happy to be here and I hope with everything that I have I get to stay!!

I was thinking about making this thread yesterday! My EDD is September 2 and I found out 2 days ago. Havent told my H yet. Waiting for Christmas after our family leaves. 

chichiphin

@zuuls_mom hoping this is your sticky bean! 

zuuls_mom

Thanks @chichiphin! My FRERs are still super faint even at 11DPO so I’m starting to get discouraged. My H wants me to wait til Wed to test again, but that feels like an eternity. 

leafyarch

Welcome y’all! I hope we’re all in this for the long run together! Happy holidays

I had a beta done yesterday at 11 DPO and it came back at 58. I’m pretty happy with that number. I’ll have a repeat on Thursday 12/27. My FRER was also stronger today than it was yesterday.

Hi ladies! My tests are still really faint too, but my first positive was Friday and really faint and even if it doubled every 48 hours, my HCG level could still be really low and not concerning. I went today for my first beta, not sure how many I need TW I had a molar pregnancy last year so we are not only looking for them to rise, but to not rise too quickly. So I am not sure if I have to do 2-3 or more.  End TW

I am really nauseous for this early though, compared to my other pregnancies.  And I am exhausted, so I keep reminding myself these are good things. 

chichiphin

Yay @holly321 I’m so glad you’re Sept! I hope those betas are exactly where they should be.

afm - got beta and progesterone tested today but I’m out of town so results will be slow. The RE is trying to figure out if I still need my progesterone supps. I keep POAS and the line keeps progressing so I think it feels more real today. Plus I feel hungover/nauseated a lot. 

zuuls_mom

*TW well, it looks like I’m out before it even really began. Bleeding started a bit ago. I was so hopeful for this one to stick, so I’m really upset. And of course H says “better for it to happen now than how it was last time.” Yeah, not helpful. If next cycle works out, I may still end up in Sept. Either way though, wishing you all a H&H 9 months ❤️

Ooo just found out today I’m pregnant with baby no.2 due about 4th of September! So exciting! Probably only about 2-3 weeks along, and have had terrible nausea for 2 weeks now 🤭

holly321

@zuuls_mom, I am so sorry.  I am sorry about what your husband said, mine did the same thing with or second loss.  It is hard to remember that they think they are being helpful.

@chichiphin, I was sad at first when I realized my math was wrong and I was September and not August , but it is looking like a good thing.  I took another test this morning, with SMU and having a coffee, and while it is still lighter than I would like, it is definitely darker.  Plus, I am really nauseous, so that’s good! I am really hoping to not have to live off Zofran this time around.

 I hope you don’t have to wait too long for your results.  Hopefully you won’t need to continue the progesterone. I hope I will get mine tomorrow.  I know my OB does not have office hours, but I have gotten results from him when he doesn’t before.    

SmrBrd2012

@zuuls_mom So sorry to hear that. I hope the next cycle is the one for you.

chichiphin

@zuuls_mom oh I’m so sorry ❤️ Take care of yourself 

holly321

TW. My first beta was 7.   I wish you ladies the best!

zuuls_mom

I'm so sorry @holly321. Sending tons of love your way.

chichiphin

@holly321 I’m so sorry friend ❤️❤️ Sending love

Finally got my b/w back finally from 10dpo - beta was at 64 and progesterone at 200. Follow up b/w and u/s on Jan 4!

Hey ladies!! I’m a FTM as well, got my postive digital FRER on christmas morning figured id join in until a Sept 2019 group opens up! Im only a little under 5w along but i am SOOO bloated its scary anyone else experiencing this?

chichiphin

Hey @knottie8483d5f23ea29a69 welcome! So it’s easier to get to know you/tag you etc, you should head over to the Knot and change your community user name to something that is more personalized to you. You have to log out & log back in to the bump for it to take!

I’m also FTM and found out Sunday at 14DPO tried 3 HPTs from 2 different brands to be sure. Had my first beta yesterday. Waiting for results. **TW had a MC in August @ 8wks so really anxious and nervous about this one. I'm happy but scared at the same time. FF says my expected due date is Sept. 9th. Hope this one sticks, FX. 

cee_marie

Hi everyone! Found out 5 days ago that we’re pregnant! First time parents and due September 6ish:) I’m really nervous and wake up everyday still and take a test..I’m not convinced I’m not going to wake up and just not be pregnant anymore! (I know I’m ridiculous). Going today for a blood test to hopefully ease all of this a little. 
Any recommendations for the first trimester for this FTM?? Any advice would be awesome:)
Thanks ladies!

Hiiii @maserrano714 & @chichiphin! Psyched to run the future 9/2019 BMB w/ some familiar TTGP folx. (I changed my avatar for the new year, don't be fooled.) 
& hiiii everyone less familiar! 

I had a super light BFP NYE morning (10 DPO)--& then retested today (12 DPO) & it was like doubly darker (ahhhhh!). I was doing all this BSC stuff to like "make sure" the 10 DPO line was there but--it was. I feel like I'm in a "waiting room" IRL bc I haven't told anyone yet (see TW below for a bit on why) & I'm waiting until DH & I get home from our holiday travels to tell him. I'll be a FTM, DD 9/13, according to FF. (ahhhhh!) I have been lurking this board & waiting for today's follow-up to test. 

TW: mention of prev. loss

I had a CP back in early Oct., so at the same time that I am ready to post here confidently for the support TB offers, I am *also* trying not to get too excited. The darker line this morning definitely gave me a confidence boost. But yeah, also hoping this one sticks.

chichiphin

@kagesstarshroom hooray! congrats! I'm hoping for a super sticky bean. 

So glad others are joining too! 

cee_marie

How has everyone gotten their beta tests so early? My doctor won’t take blood until my first appt on Jan 14, 6ish weeks!

supermom34482

how far along will you be when you have your first appointments? I will be just shy of 9 weeks and I feel like it's forever away

maserrano714

@kagesstarshroom congratulations, wishing you a H&H 9months and a sticky baby. I totally understand about the apprehension about celebrating too early. Its almost like I don't want too get to attached in case there is a loss making it easier for me to deal with. But I'm trying.

@cee_moll **TW** I'm getting monitored early because of my history of miscarriage. Not sure if it's the same for others.

Hi ladies, I am excited to be joining the September 2019 bump group! I took a test Dec 31 and got a BFP. EDD is September 11th. This will be my second child as I have an almost 14 month old daughter. Looking forward to getting to know everyone. And congratulations to you all on your pregnancy.

chichiphin

@cee_moll I'm being monitored by an RE.
