Hi Everyone, I'm a newbie on this forum. Just found out I'm pregnant on Saturday, off to see the midwife on Wednesday. Not too sure if i'm actually due Sept 09 yet as i was on Depo and have no dates or anything to go on, will have to wait until I can get in for a scan i assume.

Mine havent changed, except the odd bit of light coloured blue veins through the nipple area, but thats it (sorry TMI). I really want them to get sore so it feels like Im pg, because at the moment I dont

Welcome RyanJacobsMum!
haha Rianna - nope haven't got sore boobs yet but do have really sore nipples actually! Just the very ends are sore when you touch them  DH has been told to stay away! haha
have to say I'm looking forward to having sore boobs too - means they'll be growing which I'm definitely looking forward to the most!
Quite exciting that at 5 weeks the baby is about 5mm long and it's little heart starts beating - I love reading your ticker info - I just wish I didn't feel so normal though so I could feel more involved in the whole process!
I'm off to have my first check-up at the Docs on the 6th Jan (I'll be 6 weeks) - when do you guys go?

CONGRATULATIONS SEPTEMBER MUMMIES!!! WISHING YOU EACH A HAPPY AND HEALTHY PREGNANCY.
Rianna, with my first pregnancy I didn't get any symptoms until I was about 7wks. It was so odd being pregnant without any 'proof' IYKWIM. But of course the evidence of that pregnancy is my beautiful vivacious little preschooler so everything turned out better than perfect I'm sure yours will too and I'm hoping the next 2 wks until your scan pass very quickly (you know you'll have to keep your well wishers - aka stalkers - updated).

Thank god i dont have sore boobs thats the last thing I need is for them to grow im already DD.
The morning sickness I thought I was having ended up only being for that one morning so back to square 1 with only constant cramps but not bad 1s. I had them with Guy so im not too worried.
I havent even booked a doc appointment yet. Not sure when I should. I have Guys unvailing next week so am just trying to get through this time without too many more worries, the blood tests the docs give me always freak me out when the HCG isnt rising ive had enough of that.

lol Amy!!!! My DH is dying for my boobs to grow, he wants to take advantage of the 'free inlargement' lol (Im a B, so any increase is a good one in his opinion lol)...
Ive already had my first appt, I asked for a scan referral because of the spotting Ive already had and previous MC. So my next one is at 8 weeks I think.
Oh Jo thats good to know IYKWIM. Hahaha stalkers, what stalkers lol
Laurz I know what you mean about HCG levels. I decided not to have serial BT's done this pg due to the stress it caused when I MC'ed. I'd rather take each day as it comes this time. How are you levels looking??
ETA Typos!!

Hi everyone. I've had dramas. I had a blood test on Monday because I am paranoid after my first mc. The HCG levels were 2970 (or somewhere around there). I hadn't been feeling very flash, quite bad cramping. About half an hour later I started bleeding, so I automatically assumed that I was having another mc. Wasn't heavy heavy, but still heavy enough. Yesterday I was as well, but less again. Today a very very small amount. Rang the doctor and got sent back for blood tests today and the level has gone up, but not by much. Its now around 3150. I now have to wait until Monday to find at whether it is viable or not. Not knowing is worse than "waiting" and I hate waiting!
I don't want to get my hopes up to have them come crashing down, but I don't want to be too negative either.
Does anybody know what "normal" is for these tests?

Congrats September mummies!!!
Just popping my head in to say, dont stress too much about the lack of symptoms right now, nothing really starts happening until 6 weeks+
With Caden, I felt all good up until 6 weeks, then i was crook as, Id had a few days of feeling queazy between4 weeks and 6 weeks but it didnt get into real MS until 6 weeks, and I had NO sore boobs what so ever, and I had spotting for 2 weeks from 5 weeks!
This pregnancy, Ive had the spotting, basicly no MS, apart from feeling a bit sick when i dont eat enough, and Im really tired, but no sore boobs. Because of the spotting, Ive had my hcg done and they are high and rising well, so having no symptoms can me nothing at all!

Sh_az that must be so hard - waiting and not knowing can be so stressful. I found this website that may be helpful with the HCG levels:
Normal HCG Levels
Hopefully Monday will come with good news for you xx

sorry im lurking again,
The thing with hcg is that its not so much the level, its how its rising, they say a healthy pregnancy the hcg will double every 48 hours or close to double, for example, mine on xmas eve were about 7000, then they were 12000 on Saturday and then 25000 on Monday. They could be lower than that but if they are doubling its usually all good, and sometimes your levels could go from 3000 up to like 15000!
They really should do 3 blood tests over a week so get a good idea of whats happening.
Im still spotting pinky a bit aswell even though my levels are fine, and I did with my son aswell.

**Lurker**
fingers crossed Sh_az that everything is fine..waiting sucks doesn't it!!...I know some woman have a period like bleed early in pregnancy..that gets mistaken for a normal period so maybe that's what it is.
Hmmm wish I knew if I was UTD already!!...I'm sure it's far too early to be having symptoms and it's making me paranoid lmfao..Think I'm only 3DPO and have had bouts of nausea and tiredness..today being the worst. Sheesh if i am (though probably not) this hypothetical baby would have to be female!!....since i had no symptoms what so ever with Kahtrell til 8 or 9 weeks along. Ok **lurker** out. lolz

**lurking in **
Regarding symptoms, I had none in the early stages . . . I did a pregnancy test in mid - February which came up positive and i thought i was about four weeks gone - when i had the dating scan in first week of March i found out i was 13 weeks pregnant (all with no symptoms)
And Shaz - i had a bleed in Jan which i mistook for a period (hence why i didn't do a test till i missed Feb's AF). I think now it may have been implantation bleeding. I really hope everything works out for you

Thanks for the link amy. Made interesting reading. I've had a look at some other sites as well. Its a waiting game really, Monday seems like a very long way off and I am an impatient bunny!
On a funnier note, my husband has never been so interested in my periods .... asking every 5 minutes do you still have it, is it heavy, is it light, is it normal bla bla bla. It is a tad annoying but very sweet!
I will keep you guys posted on my progress.
Hope everyone has a good New Year - I imagine there will be no all night parties this time around!
