    Re: pregnant or not?

    Hi Kavi,
    Congrats! Stay cool and be positive.. I know its easy to say and difficult to follow... Symptoms vary from person to person. Just don't strain yourself and don't exert yourself. Check with a gynac... All the very best... you are in our prayers.
    Let us know once you confirm with the gynac.

    Re: pregnant or not?

    Hey guys,

    Thank you so much for ur support. I got my blood test results back.. guess wat???? I am pregnant. Still cant believe it.

    I dont have appointment with my gyn until jul 23rd.By then i will be 10 weeks 2 days. Is it ok or should i have to check for sure with another doc? Do we need to take any tablets now. can i take OTC folic acid tablets?

    Thank you so much,
    Kavitha

    Hello Kavi,

    Congrats once again:thumbsup. We all told you right.
    Yes you should see a GYN and they will give you dates for scan and what prenatal tablets to take.

    I went for my 1st scan around 6weeks. Check with your GYN. :)

    Between did they tell your EDD?

    congrats girl!now sit back and enjoy your growing bump:)...

    symptoms will show up in couple of wks... so dont worry...
    OTC folic acid are safe... but still just call your doc and ask him/her to name you the folic acid brand he wants you to continue.
    apart from folic acid you wont really need much till 10 wks..on your nxt visit he will prescribe you calcium and iron supplements too..
    good luck!

    Re: pregnant or not?

    hey guys,

    Thanks yaar..
    My gyn hasnt yet given me EDD. Actually i havent yet met or talked to doc. I gave blood test and a nurse called me to tell the results.

    I m still worried because from today i have severe lowerback pain. I am in HMO and seeing a doc takes atleast 1 and 1/2 months.

    Many ppl say they have ultrasound during 6-8 weeks. By the docs appt i will be on 11th week. I am really scared now, wont that be late?

    Cheers,
    Kavitha

    Re: pregnant or not?

    kavitha... as i mentioned before, just call your doc and ask him for folic acid supplements... i had my pregnancy confirmation scan at 6 wks... since i didnt have a beta hcg blood test, and only an HPT ... but my first full fledged scan was done only at 11 wks...
    before that its too early anyway, so its perfectly normal to wait till 11-12 wks to have your first scan , not to worry!

    hey loonypooh, bujjig, n the ladies wished me.. thank you guys once again

    I calculated EDD using due date calculator. It shows tat due date is feb 12th. Now my question is from May(my last period) to Feb is just 9 months and a week. isnt it 10 months as they say in movies? How you guys would calculate?

    Cheers,
    Kavi
