Great to see our October group growing.

I moslty feel thirsty and dehydrated. And more water means even more trips to the restroom... Have some heartburn too.

What about others?

Please do post the details of your first ultrasounds. I will be looking forward to read about it.

All new October ladies...

Hi Ladies,

I am also on the boards at almost 11 o'clock on a Saturday night...I lead and exciting life

So far, just sore bb's, fatigue, an incredible sense of smell, and some indigestion. But so far no morning sickness or bouts of nausea. But I am only 5 weeks along so I know I have a lot of time ahead of me to develop MS.

Have a great night!

HI Everyone!
It is a dream come true to join a thread like this! After 2.5 years of trying, I think this is IT! ( I hope!! ).
We have experienced 3 early miscarriages, so I am cautiously ecstatic- if that makes any sense!
I believe my due date would be October 19th based on the 1st day of my last period.
My 3rd Beta is tomorrow morn. I am praying that is rises!!! So, I have to ask if anyone is experiencing this...starting today (which is 18 dpo) I have been getting very watery discharge, almost like I peed in my pants every couple hours or so. Anyone else get this?? What the heck?! For the last few days, I was having very brown discharge, now totally clear. I know this is TMI, sorry!
Anyway, I am so excited to get to know all of you and keep in touch over the next 8 months and beyond!

2yearstrying. Hope that our october groups keep growing each day.

I too have a lot of clear discharge... though i didnt have any brown discharge (just spotting around 5dp and 6dp). But I mostly read on these boards that brown discharge is quite common and nothing to worry about..

Good luck for the 3rd beta!

Regards
Misbah
