Pregnancy Info HOME

Hi Ashley! Thank you so much for your post!!! It made me cry:) It gives me alot of HOPE!!!! Congrats by the way!!!!! You must be very excited. So how many Flintston vitamines did you take?

I'm glad it helped! I am super excited because it's my first, but its also kinda stressful because everytime I have the slightest pain I worry! I'm in a period of round-ligament stretching now, and that has been anything but pleasant for me...I was taking One-A-Day pre-natals, but they started to upset my stomach a lot (I did research and found that it also causes a lot of women to become constipated too) as well as make me nauseated in the mornings! I skipped one night of the vitamins and the next day was a world of difference so I just asked the Dr. about switching. He told me to just follow the instructions so I take two gummy vitamins a day; I don't know what it would be for the others, but it has adult dosage information, apparently some people never grow out of flintstones! It's much better than before...except that now I really have weird cravings for gummy bears! haha. I'm going to keep on these vitamins unless they tell me otherwise, but from talking to people who have used the same doctors they say that they never went back to the regular pre-natals! Hope this helps!

I bet it is a little stressful since you don't really know what to expect, but what a great experience! The prenatals do make me kinda sick if I don't eat yogurt before I take them. I do have one a day adult gummies that I love!!!! I bet I could just take those and then take a extra folic acid supplement. I love the way that the prenatals make my nails and hair grow though:) Anywho........I am off to a cookout! Hope you guys have a great weekend!!!

Good morning everyone, Ashleydee- Thank you so much for your encouraging words. I am feeling better and I can't wait to test! Congrats on your pregnancy and H&H 9 months girl! Simone- I Really hope I am preggers. It would be perfect timing in my opinion. You are right, if you bring all the signs out that it is imperative for hubby to perform "right" he will feel pressure. A friend of mine did just that and her hubby couldn't seal the deal... I want you to become preggo when hubby comes back because like you said that would just be so great! And Hubby will be the most excited I bet!!!! So have you decided to take vitamins all the way?

Update: 10 DPO already and I woke up with a slight sore throat (which I don't feel anymore). my temp was 98.42 and I feel crampy as if my period was on its way. My nipples are sore but not overwhelming as before. I also smell everything. The nasty taste in my mouth is back. Bd'd last night and was incredibly wet... what is going on?

Hi!!! The last two days I took my normal vitamines only because I forgot to take the prenatals at diner time and they make me sick if I don't take them with a meal. I kinda would like to stay on them, but they are so expensive. I think I pay like 30 dollars for a month supply. That includes shipping and handling. Since I am going back to the States soon I could probably find some cheaper ones. I went to a cookout tonight and their was a girl there that was four months pregant and I was so jealous!!!! I know my time will come, but still. So are you going to wait until you missed your period before you test? Some people get their positve at 11 dpo. Also if you have the metalic taste that is another great sign. Stay positive!!

Update: today is 11 dpo and I can't wait for tomorrow and monday to be here already because: MY BBT TANKED THIS MORNING TO 97.6 Yes, I was sad and I've felt like it is not the month. Yet again, i felt crampy and a bit nauseous. My nipples hurt a lot after I took my bra off and I am eyes burning sleepy. If my BBT goes back up tomorrow, I'm testing if not, I'll just give it a couple of days to watch what happens. I wsnt you guys to pray for me coz I am nervous. I was hoping to see implantation bleeding but nada.

Hey Bebe- STAY POSITIVE!!!! I am praying for you girl!!!! It is so hard to just wait and see what happens, but just try not to stress about it. Not everyone has implantation bleeding. Some people don't experience anything. So you are still in the game until af comes:) Positive vibes being sent you way!!!!!!

Temp back up to 98.24 but got bfn. Be right back!

It might still be to early. Don't give up!!!!

Simone you are such a wonderful person! May God bless you and your family. I want to give you a big hug for you words: Thank you thank you THANK YOU! I am going to relax and think positive. I will not test until next week-end. Like I said initially, I am excited for this cycle no matter the outcome because I finally experienced a "normal" cycle after all this time.

You are welcome! I have heard a lot of stories where people had to test a couple of times before they got their BFP. I would just hold off until af is due. Like you said no matter what the outcome you still are one step closer to becoming a mommy:) I got a email from the hubby today and they might not becoming home after all:( It could be a long 6-7 months. Please keep us in your prayers. I really want to see him before I leave for the States. I am having a hard time with this deployment. It's my first one and I am so not ready for this.

what does bfn and bfp mean?

Monique- B(ig) F(at) P(ositive) or Big Fat N(egative). Simone- you bet I'll be on my knees for ya. I have a friend who's been deported to afghanistan for a year in the mean time his family has to move to a base in North carolina to await his return. THAT SUCKS! I'm sorry you are dealing with this have you befriended a few ladies at the cook out the other day?

Oh welcome Monique. Bfp or bfn is how we report the results from the home pregnancy test. Where are you on your journey if you don't mind me asking?

Well I have not really ever ttc before. I mean I have had unprotected s_x but it was not planned. I do want to have a baby and have wanted to for about a year. I am 19 and I have a guy friend that wants to have a baby with me. We are going to start ttc very soon. We have already had unprotected s_x but that time wasn't planned. I am going to be testing if I miss my period which is due tomorrow.
