Thanks for all of the well wishes ladies. All is well and the car is back in action. The fool that ran him off the road didn't slow down or stop or anything.
DD skipped her nap so we are chilling on the sofa watching Sesame Street right now before dinner.
Yesterday I let mh sleep in so today he let me! Then I spent most of today editing while the kids and him play with baby. But he left for a concert in the city a few hours ago, so now it's just us chickens. I was a genius and had him pick up a rotisserie chicken and potato salad and buns before he left so supper is easy and then I have a maternity shoot tonight.
So those of you around 7ish weeks, do you feel connected or do you still feel kind of like you know you're pregnant, you are doing all the right things, but that it's sort of an abstract concept? That's how I feel anyways
So we had a little plumbing emergency here today. I went to fill up the tub in case we lost power so we had water to flush the toilet, and when I went to shut it off, the hot water wouldn't turn off! H was out running some errands so I called the only other logical person, my dad! He and his wife came over just before the tstorms hit and my H came home so the 2 guys worked on the shower. They figured out what broke, so we let the storms pass (luckily didn't lose power) and H ran out to Home Depot for parts, but meanwhile my water is shut off. I've been craving macaroni all day and decided since no water, I'll boil ice cubes lol. It'll probably take a while, but at least I get my macaroni!
Oh, also, I'm ashamed to admit that I was a little put out to have to empty out my bathroom trash before dad got here. It had all my pee sticks in it. *hangs head in shame*
ashtog I'm six weeks and still in the abstract concept phase. Half of it is I'm too exhausted to get excited! Telling the in laws this weekend helped make it real and I'm going to visit and tell my parents this week so I'm hoping to move into the more connected camp.
ashtog I'm 7.5 weeks and it's still an abstract concept for me. I found a random digi when cleaning this weekend so I used it today and it still said pregnant. I guess that means all is good. Lol
ashtog I'm 7 weeks today and not feeling connected at all. I was just trying to explain this to MH. I'm like, who is this new baby inside me, I already have a baby! Our first appointment Tuesday so it may change then.

Another vote for not feeling connected yet. We haven't told anyone yet even family, and we don't plan to tell until after our dating ultrasound in two weeks. I also think it doesn't feel "real" yeti. I have been lucky and haven't really had any typical pregnancy symptoms, I know I should just be happy about that but it just seems less real somehow.
Who knew I would be excited by the idea of getting nauseous?
ashtog, I'm not quite "connected" but I'm not "disconnected" either and I will be 8 weeks tomorrow. We tried for 18 months, including one loss at 5 weeks, and were (are) seeing a RE to get pregnant so I think that my hesitancy stems from me waiting for the other shoe to drop. Our frequent ultrasounds help me know it is real but my overall lack of symptoms means that I sometimes forget.
Every day I allow myself to get a little more excited and plan a little more for the future, but I don't know that I will truly connect until we are out of the 1st trimester and I'm starting to show a little bit (which will be awhile I'm sure because I'm overweight to begin with).
I adore my in-laws, but they have been in town for a week (staying at a hotel close to the event they are attending) and they left today. We've seen them almost every day they have been in town and I'm exhausted.
Today I went to the grocery store after church and had about an hour before they showed up for an early dinner (which they brought with them). I DESPERATELY want a nap or to go to bed, but if I nap now I won't sleep tonight and if I go to bed now I will wake up at 4:00 am.
I took unisom last night. I took a whole pill since that's what I did last pregnancy, but holy shit I don't think I'm going that again. It was almost impossible to drag myself out of bed when the kid woke up at 615.
I'm hoping today is the last day of this cold!
It took me a couple days to finally get used to the Unisom. Now, it doesn't make me super tired.

I feel like unisom doesn't even touch me anymore. How long does it take y'all for it to kick in?
