BFP!!! But......I now have a lot to figure out. I will try to tell my story brief here, i'm sure you have heard it before. Ok...My last normal period was in the end of may, and since then they have been lasting a day or two, and barely flow, mostly just spotting. I swore I was pregnant, I feel like it, look it, and even think I feel movement (if I were pregnant since the may one I could be 20 weeks) but all tests were negative, including one at planned parenthood. Well AF isn't due for another couple days, but I just got a BFP on a real cheap test. So now I know I am, but the question is, have I been all this time like I though, or did I just get that way. I guess I will have to have another appointment at planned parenthood and figure it out. And make my way to get some insurance. OMG, I never thought I would get a BFP....i'm in shock right now.


I put the test on a page, and little about me and the kids if you would like to look at it, its at http://www.angelfire.com/ex/forevermore/pregnancy.html

Yeah they run on my side and DH side....so it was bound to happen. :) I knew I was having twins before I went to the doctor, I kept thinking about, I just kept catching myself thinking about having twins, then the doc said my uterus felt bigger, and did a u/s and sure enough there they were. I had no reaction when the tech told me there were twins, she thought I was crazy, I was like....well I already knew. LOL Good luck to you, hope you get your BFP soon.

And good luck on Sat. happydwarf!

Baby Dust To All!!! Hopefully its blue baby dust. :) I got 3 girls already.....

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!! Lots of BLUE baby dust this time!!!!! You're 3 girls are absolutely adorable. I want to have twins so badly. I agree that starting a family at a young age does have many benefits. like being young when you become a grandma( AHHH what a scary thought) lol :-). I am 24 with 2 children and ttc#3 (twins I hope) though they only run in Dh side. so probably not to likely. Anyway just wanted to say congrats!!


Lots of Blue Dust your way

Lisa

I too was 21 when I had my 3rd/4th. So I hear ya in the young department and having twins. My storey is a little diffrent because #1 I know that I am pragnant. I was at the hospital with symptoms of a atopic(I've had one before) It was then comfirmed I was indeed pregnant. I too was having weird peirods and when they asked when my last normal one was I couldn't really tell them. I had an ultrasound on friday night at it was comirmed I was 9wks pregnant. When I got up just one minute after seeing the baby on the screen I felt a gush and it was evident that I lost the baby. One minute ago I saw it moving and its heartbeat on the screen.

I came back on Sunday for another U/S to make sure there wasn't any left over tissue. I had another doctor who told me that it was impossible that I misscarried. There is no way from the time I saw the baby on the screen to the time I got up that I lost it. He told me the other doctor shouldn't have told me that. It made me second guess what I saw on the floor friday night. I didn't of course bend down to take a closer look. The doc then asked me if anyone picked up the tissue. I told him that patholigy came down to collect the specimen. He went to go check on that and when he came back his additude was changed. Well they comfirmed that it was an accual fetus. He didn't know what to say. He like the other doctors and nurses hadn't seen a case like this.

On monday morning I was sceduled to have my second U/S because they couldn't do one on sunday. I went in and had the same tech. She went directly to the uterus and guess what she saw? Yes a baby, live and healthy. Well, this isn't a shock since I already had a set of twins. The of and on bleeding was from one of the twins being ready to exspell. That is the only explaination. So anything is possible. My best idea was to go to the hospital and tell them you think something is wrong. You are bleeding not regular and if you have to tell them you are uncomfortable. This may have them take you as priority. You have had twins before and in its self is considered a high risk pregnancy.

good luck

Be who you are and say what you feel because those  who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Congtatulations on finally getting a BFP! I just wondered if you had a blood test during this time? I had my last AF on 8/26. I am getting bigger in the abdomen despite having lost weight. In fact none of my clothes fit me now. Anyway, all of my HPT's have come back neg., the one at the dr. office was even neg. but he told me to come back in 2 wks for a blood test. Anyway, some days I am sure I am and other days I just think that I am going crazy!!!!!! So, I just wondered if you had a blood test since May? I guess I am looking for signs of hope. And let us know after an u/s how far along you are! Again, congratulations.

No I never got a blood test. I don't have no insurance and I went to planned parenthood in the end of September, and they did me no good. So I guess I will return there again until I can get some insurance. And while i'm talking about it, does anyone know if planned parenthood does ultrasounds? Based on my income I go by donation there, and I think they are going to try and do as little as they can, because they know they aren't going to get much out of me. So I just was curious if they did them at there offices or not?

Hi, I have a question. I ovulated either on October 8th, 9th or 10th and my dh and I bd'd on the 4th, 6th, 8th and 9th. I know I ovulated no later than the 10th because I had extremely bad cramps and pinches. On Saturday 10/11 I bought an ovulation predictor kit and the lines were faint and then I tested a second time and the lines were gone so I know I ovulated before then. My question is do you think there is a good chance I concieved because exactly 7 days past the 8th of October I spotted brown blood and I never ever spot 1 week before my period. I'm also nautious, exhausted, my face is bright red, congested, and can't concentrate. I'm also starting to have to go to the bathroom more often but that could be because I drink alot of water. Perfume and cedar smells make me vomit as well as the smell of cat food and chocolate among other things. Food and water taste weird to me also and I can't get comfortable at night. What do you think, email me back at jlansberry@verizon.net
