Belly touching...already???

Posted Monday, December 31, 2007 2:28 PM

Wow. So we told our extended families over the weekend. Can I tell you...I knew there would be belly touching LATER in my pregnancy, not NOW. I got like seven belly touches. I know I'm showing a little early, but come on people, touching my belly at 2

just keep stuffing my face

Posted Friday, December 21, 2007 2:17 PM

This is awful! I hate feeling bloated and stuffed, but the only thing that takes away my nauseated feeling is eating, eating, and more eating. As long as something is going in my mouth, I feel okay. But 20 minutes after eating, I feel bad again. Stick

Starting to feel a little nauseated

Posted Thursday, December 20, 2007 12:58 PM

I have felt just wrong for a couple of weeks now. But today, it's hit a whole new level. I woke up fine but felt dizzy several minutes after getting out of bed. I laid back down for about 10 minutes, then I got up with no problems. Now at work I feel

Just in time for Christmas, ladies and gentlemen, here I am in all my glory with a marvelous fever blister right there on my lower lip! Yippee! I get to be all perty for the holidays now. Nothing like pregnancy bringing out the best in people. I haven't

Christmas makes people insane

Posted Friday, December 14, 2007 11:40 AM

I don't know what it is about Christmas that drives people to act like complete morons. Maybe it's the overload of red and green. I'm not sure those colors were ever supposed to go together. My MIL is upset because of the arrangement of how we're spending

Crying, crying, and more crying

Posted Thursday, December 13, 2007 12:37 PM

I was great yesterday. Felt good, worked out, didn't make too many stupid mistakes. I had the house to myself most of the night and worked on my calendar Christmas presents to my mom and sister. Then my husband came home and I got all stupid again. I

New symptoms and continued laziness

Posted Wednesday, December 12, 2007 3:40 PM

Yikes, it's been 5 days since I've written a new entry. That's so unlike me. So I'm listing my new symptoms. Could be pregnancy, could be the enormous amounts of sweets available to me since the holiday season began, or could be my crazy little self making

It's official...beta numbers doubled!

Posted Friday, December 07, 2007 4:53 PM

So I got the call...beta numbers went from 60 to 181. Yay! I called my husband on his lunch break and he shouted "Woo hoo!" He's very relieved. This was huge for him. He refused to get excited until he knew the numbers increased as they should. My progesterone

Going from "This is taking forever!" to "How did this happen so quickly?"

Posted Thursday, December 06, 2007 1:20 PM

I'm happy about being pregnant, don't get me wrong. I'm sure this is going to be an awesome experience. That said...boy am I not ready for this! I'd like to think I'll feel better knowing that you can't ever really be ready for something like this until

Today is my third blood draw in 8 days!

Posted Wednesday, December 05, 2007 12:39 PM

So I'm having my blood drawn today at 4 to see if my beta numbers double. If they don't, this baby probably isn't viable. If they do, yay me! Oops, I mean yay us. This will be my 3rd blood draw since last Tuesday. I feel like vampires are taking over.

Pregnant...for now

Posted Monday, December 03, 2007 11:44 AM

Hi girls! Okay, so yes the title is right...I did test positive. I should be WAY more excited, but some things are bringing me down and convincing me I shouldn't become too attached to the idea of being pregnant. The Good: I tested yesterday afternoon
