Wow, I checked and didn't see any March babies yet. I haven't had my first U/S yet...but I'm that everything will be fine and the thread will grow from there.

Anyone else with a precious arrival in March 2010?

[IndieBlue]

Dododo.....me passing the time until someone else chimes in for March LOL

Anyone nervous to buy anything baby this early? I see such great deals on stuff when I'm out but I just can't bring myself to buy anything yet. Well, I take that back.....I did buy 6 packs of diapers when I found them on sale LOL.

I can't wait to get to that 'safety' point though, when I can buy clothes and cribs...etc.

I was just thinking we needed to start a March 2010 due date thread so I searched so as not to start one if there was one... and I found you! We should mention it on the other June threads so the June BFP's will join us. I think it's important to start this new thread to start sharing the early pregnancy, freaking out stuff. I'm so excited for this blessing but still in shock that I'm actually here. I feel like it's too good to be true. Also, I have lots of backaches, cramping, bloating and some sharp pains here and there. Do you have any of this? I'm also feeling like this new 2ww wait for sono to hear a heartbeat is soooo long and I'm wondering when my clinic will release me to my ob-when does yours? See lots of issues!!

As for buying baby stuff, I too wonder when's a good "safe" point. DH and I were out shopping today and looked at baby stuff-cribs, etc. It was an amazing feeling to talk about furniture colors we liked etc since we've never been here before, baby shopping has always been for others.

Hello Ladies!
I have not got my official due date from my RE but I think it is March 4th.
I am just waiting waiting waiting for my U/S on July 17th. Praying everything is ok. My only symptom at all is that I am a little tired at night. I wish I would throw up!!! Or at least feel some other symtoms.

[Hazeld0409]

I've read that not all women feel symptoms but I agrre with you I too wish I had morning sickness lol I get headaches, dizziness, fatigue and some nausea on and off but not all the time. I am also a bit tired. There are online due date calculators. Mine is based on that so it may change when I have my u/s on the 16. I'm dying with this wait I just want to see something and hear a heartbeat already!

[trying41]

I'm due March 11. First u/s is July 17-same as cmlo!

Not too much for symptoms-still bloated, and I got nauseous in the grocery store yesterday-I was worried-thank goodness for the produce bags being handy!

I can time a clock by when I need a nap at 1:30.

Hazel-I hear what you are saying. It feels like this is just another stepping stone-the worry (and the waiting!!) has not yet gone away.

Happy healthy 9 to everyone!

Hi and congrats to everyone! Indie - I think our paths crossed on another post and you reassured me I was, in fact, pregnant when I was still in disbelief.

On-line calculators put my due date at either 2/28 or 3/1 so hope you don't mind if I join your group.
I am thrilled but, yes, still very nervous. DH and I are trying to keep our excitement in check for now. I've only told my BF for now. Definitely too scared to buy any baby stuff or even talk too much about having a real baby. I have a vaginal US on Wed. at the RE's see my OB ON 6/13. Can't wait...

I have had some period-like cramping,nausea (no throwing up) and am very fatigued. No sore boobs. I also have mild OHSS so I am really bloated and have a swollen ovary. I kind of like the ovary because I check it everyday and feel reassured when its still big - hopefully means I'm still pumping out that HcG. The bloating on the other hand - 2 people at work have asked me if I'm expecting. Can you believe that?

Anyway, hope everyone continues to do great!

[Hazeld0409]

Hi again Trying, it's so exciting to be on a due date buddies thread!

Winkie, they say you can go up to 14 days over due date so you may just be on the right thread-though I'm not sure that's what you want to hear lol

I went to Barnes and Noble last night for some pregnancy reading. I looked through tons of books and ended up with one. I want to share it with you ladies because I absolutely LOVED it and have not been able to stop reading since I got it! It's called "The Pregnancy Countdown Book" by Susan Magee. Let me know if you read it and like it.

AFm I'm hating this 2ww for the u/s on 7/16. I think I'm going to visit my ob for another hcg and u/s so I can relax a little.

Thats awesome! Good Luck on Tuesday

I wish I could get rid of the doom and gloom I feel and enjoy this.

Hello ladies!!
Just wanted to stop and say CONGRATULATIONS to everyone.
I know you guys must still be a little hesitant but enjoy every single second of everyday.
I got my BFP 11dpiui and I could not hold back and had to tell some people right off the bet (very little people) but once it was confirmed I just opened up and screamed as loud as I could.
Of course not everyone chooses this path but it has worked for me.
THe worrie doesn't go away (sorry ladies) but it does get better.
Enjoy ladies, yall are !!!
Congrats!!!

Hi ladies, Mind if I join this group. This is my second IVF and I am officially pregnant. Today I went for my 3rd Beta. I am having sever cramping and mostly they are in night. Yesterday night it was unbearable. On a scale of 1 to 10 the pain was 15 and it lasted for 15 minutes. I am not having any spotting but I am very scared with the severity of the pain. My nurse said if there is no bleeding than its OK. Please share your thoughts I am scared to death.

Thanks

[IndieBlue]

Wow, the thread is finally growing LOL YAY!

Well, I'm so glad that there are more March ladies/babies. I'm still very very cautious because of our chemical last year, plus the lighter HPT's and the AF type cramps. My SIL did a scan on me Friday night and saw nothing....but I was only 5weeks so really there isn't much to see at that point. Oh she did see a small black line/smudge so something was going on.

I'm having AF type cramping and some sharper shooting pains in my lower pelvic area.....and some stomach aches like I get with AF, so it's all very unnerving.

June: Your BETA's look great. I would definitely keep track of the cramping though...maybe you're just having tougher cramps because there is more than one burrowing around in there

Jersey: I'm so glad to see we're on the same thread again....congrats on the natural BFP!!!

Wanessa: Congrats....and thanks for the insight on telling people My husband told his brother and I told my SIL because she could do an early scan on me. We haven't told anyone else....well we did tell my 2 best friends, but they are not happy for me and have pretty much ignored me since I told them. It's crazy how people can't put their own emotions aside for a minute to be happy and pray for something so important to their friend.

CMLO: You're so strong to have been through so many cycles....you're pregnant so keep trying to get rid of that doom and gloom attitude (although I know it's hard to do....I'm walking around in a daze because of all these symptoms and last years chemical). We'll be fine though...and be celebrating in March with our new babies

Hazel: I'll have to look for that book after my first OB scan.....I'll feel more secure after that I think. I loved the book What to Expect when you're expecting when I had a natural BFP years and years ago. I've heard it's not so great for IVF ladies though.

WInkie: I know what you mean. The first few weeks I was still so bloated that I was wearing my 'big' pants and loose shirts. The swelling has went down, but then again I kind of liked it since it was a pregnancy feeling LOL I'm having AF symptoms and some pregnancy symptoms so it's hard to distinguish and really feel pregnant and enjoy it.

Jessica: Thankfully no nausea that has led to actually throwing up yet. I didn't get sick till 2 or 3 months with my natural BFP though.....still I think I'd feel better with that symptom LOL

[Hazeld0409]

Jersey, Yay for natural!! Good luck with upcoming beta!

Christy, I know what you mean I just want to enjoy being pregnant instead of worrying every day about every single thing I feel (or don't feel).

Wanessa, CONGRATULATIONS and thanks for your positive words, very much needed!

June, CONGRATS to you! I too have lots of cramping to the point I thought I was displaying signs of an ectopic pegnancy this weekend and freaked out. My ob told me to stay away from reading stuff online and come see him this week for another beta and possible early u/s.

Indie, OMG about your friends!! We have told more people than we planned but they have all been positive. There are a few people I think will be more like your friends so they will be the last to know... selfish people still exist! You're feeling like me-it's those sharp pains and cramps that make me feel like AF is coming which worry me but the book I mentioned is great and addresses even the cramping as quite normal in the 1st trimester. Of course I don't believe the good words but do believe those that worry me lol I too feel like I'm not safe until u/s bust geez, I really want to be happy about where I am right now... does that even exist for us after such a long journey to get our BFP??

[MrsM]

Hello ladies - I was waiting for someone to start this thread!! I too am just cautiously optimistic about this whole thing!!!

My RE said my due date is March 5. I had my first ultrasound on Thursday, 7/2 and we saw the gestational sac. My dr was concerned about possible ectopic pregnancy since I have endometriosis, and he was going on vacation for almost two weeks. I go back on the 15th and am just praying they see a baby.

I had some cramping early on, no spotting though. Other than that, I have sore BBs, some nausea, have dealt with some fatigue, I was really bloated at first, but I had OHSS, so that has calmed down. I get a little dizzy when I go up stairs or get up from sitting, and my sense of smell is supersonic at times. But I just don't FEEL pregnant, other than my BBs. It scares the crap out of me, but I know it's normal and even my RE keeps telling me to relax.
