December 2019 BMB Waiting Room

member
Bueller?
I really didn’t want to be the one to start this thing but I’m also looking forward to connecting with others!
FTM EDD 12/2. Clear as day BFP 9dpo 12 hours after I had convinced myself I was making up a line. It was also my birthday. 🙂
Who else is out there?!?! Anyone else still obsessively testing to see line progression?

Re: December 2019 BMB Waiting Room
@emeraldcity1214 FX so hard for a great US. Hugs
I'm embarrassed to say how many tests I have taken over the course of a week. 😂
I'm excited to get to know everyone! Here's to a happy and healthy 9 months for us all!
Any symptoms yet? For me just peeing a lot more, crampiness from a stretching uterus, and I think tiredness is ramping up. I was chalking it up to being on vacay but yesterday was first full day back and I was ready to pass out at 5pm despite a good nights rest the night before and a low key day.
Tons of cramping over here. It's making me anxious even though I know it's totally normal. My boobs are really heavy and tender. I'm also more tired than usual. I just want to nap every day. Lol
My EDD is 12/1. I’m hoping I won’t be as exhausted first trimester as I was with my daughter. Other than that my boobs hurt and the bloat is real.

*TW loss
@Megz1902 I had a loss in Feb and am feeling the exact same way. Tomorrow will be day 7 since my bfp and I still haven’t called the doctor and not planning to for another week. Will you be joining in on the PGAL thread once we get our BMB? I definitely will!
AFM feeling pretty great! I think morning sickness is trying to rear it’s head, though. And as of yesterday I am freaking starving all the time. Today I had pre-breakfast snack, breakfast, lunch, post lunch snack 1, post lunch snack 2, about to have dinner, and will almost certainly have a bedtime snack. It’s not just healthy snacking to prevent overindulging at meal time, it’s I MUST EAT NOW or the hanger will be real. Boobs are also feeling fuller for sure.
How did y’all tell your H?
My reveal to H was also nothing fancy. We were on vacay and that morning I had convinced myself the faintest of humanly visible, squinty lines was not there (no way H would have seen it nor would it have shown up in a photo so I called it a BFN). He was down at the hotel bar while I napped before my birthday dinner. I woke up and decided to test again. He walked in right as it turned positive!
I told DH this morning. I wasn't going to tell him until he asked or after the first appointment, but I can't keep this to myself LoL I am trying to hold out telling anyone else until we have a scan with a heartbeat, but, I am bad at keeping things from my mom LoL

Finally got a positive that didn’t require squinting this afternoon. EDD based on LMP would be 12/4. I’m assuming I ovulated late though.
Going to the Dr. tomorrow to confirm.
ETA: haven’t told MH yet as he is away for the month and about to not have his phone for a few weeks. Already doing risky things so I don’t need him worrying on top of that. Will be a fun surprise when he comes home!
*TW I’ve also had some bleeding but it didn’t last long so I’m hoping to get some feedback from my doctor as well.*

*TW - loss/PGAL thoughts*
I'm still just over here, testing every other day, noting if my symptoms are still here, and just trying to keep calm. Still need to make an appointment. I see my GP for a physical next week, but the most they might do is Betas, which I don't even think I want. We have moved since my pregnancy with my daughter, and the practice I went to with my miscarriage in October is a bit too far away. So, I'll be starting with a new practice and hopefully all goes well.

TW: PGAL
@Megz1902 I am also testing EOD. I tested ED through 13dpo. Last night I made the mistake of testing even though my collection was nearly crystal clear and I knew I shouldn’t have dipped those sticks (two brands) but I did. And one of them came back still a strong positive but lighter than 2 days ago. Went to bed and woke up a few hours later, couldn’t help but test again. This time not crystal clear and a line that is definitely darker than 2 days ago and I think is a hint darker than control. Whew! This week is really tough as I’ll be hitting the point where spotting started last time. I ended up calling doc today and without prompting they’re bringing me in tomorrow for a beta. Didnt even schedule a first real appointment and I am so grateful they never even brought that up. I really don’t want to have to deal with that day coming and going again. Sooooooo nervous for tomorrow!
H and I just did our third round of IVF and it looks like it worked! BFP at the equivalent of 10 DPO. My clinic doesn’t do betas for another week, but my PGAL is racing and Ineed to see numbers going up.
Looking forward to getting to know everyone. Looks like we’ll have a good PGAL support system!
I know I’m a bit biased and all, but I’m beginning to think Dec 19 is shaping up to be the best damn BMB ever. 😉
My random PG thought of the day: Hellooooo perfectly plump and perky boobs! Where have you been all my life?!
I seriously can’t stop fondling them. 😂
What’s your random thought?
@_khaleesi Good to see you here! It's shaping up to be a great board
My boobs get so enormous when I'm pregnant...so much so that I'm dreading it!
@mamamoo10 All the pee sticks over here too! I hope no one opens my bathroom drawer
@sunshineandlemons and @megz1902 I pretty much told my H the same way. I'm too nervous to do anything cute or funny!
@MrsJessS That must be tough with H away! I hope the month flies by for you.
@BStevens21 Welcome to our temporary board! Hopefully D'19 goes up soon!
super super new here, but got a positive this morning (10DPO). sent a photo to my best friend who has my godson, and she confirmed! haven't told my husband yet. trying to figure out something - this is our first, i'm 31, he's 33 and we've been married 7 years. so i feel like it deserves something a little extra.
EDD 12/17, honestly just felt weird for the last 5 days. test was negative monday, but i passed out last night at like 9.30pm which is not like me. so i took another one this morning and have it hidden in the box.
kind of bummed dr won't see me until 5/1 - she's normally a strict 8 week apt, but is on vacation, so i'm getting a week early.
went my in for a blood test today, currently waiting for results. Trying to stay cautiously optimistic!
ETA: blood test was positive so I have an OB appointment on Monday!
I’ve got a new symptom that’s started today- I am starving! I can’t get enough! Going to try to bring some healthy snacks tomorrow so I don’t get so hangry and will hopefully make good choices that way. 😂
Looks like they do an OB intake appointment/health history appointment with new patients, then schedule the first real appointment. I'm guessing at this point, my first "real" appointment won't be until the first week of May, maybe April 29/30.
Fingers crossed all goes well between now and then.

@sunshineandlemons yesssss I am constantly starving! BUT if I eat too much then a hint of nausea kicks in. My current work snacks are Cheerios, peanut butter crackers, and carrots/celery and hummus.
@anniemarie887 @MrsJessS yes I am so thankful my OB/midwife practice does 8 weeks! I see so many women with so much worry because there was nothing at 5 weeks.
@ejoseph16 omg yayyy congrats to you as well! I had suspected a BFP for you but *creepy stalker alert* couldn’t find you anywhere. Stupid mobile bump.
Betas came back nice and good. First appointment is the 25th! Less than 3 weeks to go!
TW loss
And as of today I am officially spotless past the point of spotting last time. The countdown to Sunday is ON, when I will officially be past the day of loss. It’s really really hard to not get my hopes up with that milestone day behind me.
