I guess I'm just nervous about getting my blood work back...I want to make sure my BETA is good and rises in the 48 hours like they want it too...I just hate this wait! And since people already know...I feel like I'm jinxing myself or something!

I also keep having headaches (not major ones) but for the last 2 days I've gotten them...I wonder if it's just stress!

I just want this baby so bad and am so anxious to get past certain weeks to know more and more!

Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers and tell me not to FREAK OUT!! LOL!

Thanks girlies!

Don't freak out :) Headaches should be normal in pg, when I was pg my obgyn asked if I had headaches. But you should mention them to your doc, perhaps they will take blood pressure measurement to see if it's low or high. This is nothing to stress about just mention it to them. I hope your beta looks great when you get it!

I hope your betas come back great. I am right there with ya in the waiting game. It is awful! I had a very bad headache that lasted almost 3 days last week. I just figure it is hormones. Good Luck!

Good luck with your beta...I will keep you in my thoughts.

OK good...I feel better that I'm not the only one who has gotten headaches...at times I get a lot of headaches so it's really nothing new, but since I'm PG now that's why i was worried.

I just wish the doc would call with my numbers!!!

I'm feeling the same as you... absolutely terrified at every cramp and twinge. I'm also having trouble not freaking out, and driving my DH crazy!!!!! I have a scan on Friday 30th and I am counting the minutes till then! Hang in there - we will both be fine!!!!

PS Have had a couple of headaches too, it's a normal PG symptom xxx
