MH will be late coming home from work today. Like, not till DS is in bed kind of late. I don't think I have the energy to do dinner and bathtime on my own. Considering leaving DS at daycare till last possible minute. #badmother.

Not a bad mom. If it keeps you sane hen you'll be a collected mom for dinner and bath.

My Dd is in daycare while I'm home recovering from this virus. She's staying until the normal pick up time.

I must also make sure she gets a bath tonight. I really don't remember when her last bath was; maybe last Friday?!?! #badmomclub

So on Sunday when I expected my period and my temp was still super high, I asked DH for my Wondfos so I could POAS (I handed them over a few months ago and asked him to hide them from me to save my sanity because I was obsessing and it was stressing me out beyond belief). Well, he had no idea where they were. Luckily I had a random other test in the medicine cabinet so that's what I used and then we went out and bought a couple digitals because I was convinced it was lying (obviously it wasn't). But now I would love to continue peeing on things and he still has no idea where he hid them! I even tore apart the upstairs myself last night and nothing. They've completely disappeared 😂

Look! There's a baby in my ute!

And just one, thankfully. We even saw the little primitive heart flicker.

Baby Lugnut measured almost right on track at 6w2d (I'm 6w1d by O day). So no change to the EDD. And I've been officially graduated to my OB/GYN.

I can't believe it's real. I almost cried in the doctor's office. Probably would have if my nerves hadn't still been shot.

Now that we have confirmed a viable pregnancy, we're moving forward with telling MH's family this weekend and my family next weekend. My grandfather-in-law's birthday is next Tuesday, so the whole family is getting together to celebrate. This will be his first great-grandchild. We cannot wait to surprise him with this on Saturday. Eek!

My due date changed to September 10 but everything looks good

Congrats mambo on everything looking good! The date change wasn't too far off was it?

Nope two days. From the 8th to the 10th but since we have to anticipate a 37 week delivery even those two days are important

[saltandvinegar]

RajahMD & mambo , - Awesome news!

@wicky - I did the same thing. Didn't have time for the full method but I still purged a TON and felt so much better. I need to do this again with some of the items that ended up in the basement for storage.

[caybeh]

Congrats RajahMD & mambo!!!

[salmon2017]

Hooray for all the great results today!!!

[kellykapow]

RajahMD,so exciting to see that first little flicker!

mambo, glad everything is looking good.

@gotgingy, I'm glad everything looks great! I have a low thyroid, and they like to keep an eye on my numbers too.

This post makes me so super happy for you. I understand the emotions that go with trying for a whole year. Thanks for sharing the ultrasound photo! Enjoy telling your family! It's the best!

Congrats to everyone with good appointments/scans today!!

My daughter has been feverish and miserable all day. Just crying and whining non stop and won't be anywhere but on me. It's breaking my heart because I have no idea what's wrong. Worst part of being a parent.

That's so hard. Hope she feels better soon!

I was contemplating telling my parents tonight about the baby. But my mom just texted that she's spending the night in town (they live on a farm). The roads are terrible and my dad has spent all day snowblowing I guess. So....maybe I'll tell them this weekend.

[laurenash323]

Glad it looks like everyone had great appointments today!! My follow up ultrasound is tomorrow and I'm super nervous!

Anyone else on lovenox injections? I know they tend to leave bruises. I've been using them since we started seeing the specialist and never had a bruising issue (I'm also on a baby aspirin regiment)...all of a sudden today I'm getting bruises the size of a golf ball almost!

[springbeduk]

Hooray for all the good news from today's appointments RajahMD, mambo, & gingy!

[cnf2013]

RajahMD I am so excited for you!!! Congrats on graduating!

I've got a headache and my son was up half the night

[CK1]

mambo I'm battling an off and on headache today. I hope you get some relief soon!

@gotgingy Oh no! Take care of yourself today!

[salmon2017]

I feel like death warmed up. Kind of like being hung over. Plus my beautiful toddler gave me a not so beautiful cold. Not impressed.

I called in today. I had to sneak upstairs to the nicer bathroom (on the classroom floor, which is currently abandoned for break) to throw up several times yesterday. I just couldn't do it again today.

That is my nightmare, puking in front of my students. That and my water breaking in front of them. Last pregnancy my water basically exploded the day after what was supposed to be my last, but I got pulled from work early. Thank goodness.

[saltandvinegar]

I feel sick today. Haven't thrown up yet though. The only thing that sounds good is junk food. I had chips for breakfast and am contemplating getting something off of a value menu for lunch even though I brought grilled chicken and veggies.

I hope the rest of you are feeling better soon! Also, I'm handing out LTs for commiseration.

This exactly. MH made me a wonderful quinoa/spinach/salmon dish for lunch. I can't even look at it.

1. I feel like a major creep reading through all of these posts, since nobody here knows me yet, lol. But I'm happy for all of the awesome news from some of these posts!

2. I think the nausea is slowing settling in. I can't believe it's already here, only 5 weeks in, but I guess that's my reality. Sigh.

We would love to know you better! Set up a post just for yourself and tell us everything

For the ladies who get nausea WITH vomiting, do you feel better for a little while after you throw up? The way you do with a stomach bug? Because I just feel sick all the time, and keep wishing I would throw up, to get a break.

I haven't gotten sick yet this pregnancy. But with my other pregnancies, yes I always felt better after I threw up. I remember one time with DS, I threw up and literally ate lunch right afterwards. It was the weirdest thing.
