I didn't randomly wake up at 3:30 this morning! My husband woke me up then instead. -_- Thankfully, I was able to go back to sleep! But we had to get up early because he needed to get to work early -_-
NariaDreaming I'm sorry it didn't give you a better feeling today but sending all the positive vibes and prayers your way for an even better beta Friday! I had a headache today too. FX it's just a happy, healthy pregnancy!
+1 to the club. It sucks. I keep setting mini-milestones in my head of when it'll be "okay."
NariaDreaming - Congrats on the doubling!! Purely anecdotal, but headaches are a preg sign for me, so I'll keep my FX that's how it'll be this time for you. xoxox.

As for me, apparently DS needed to have his shirt changed at daycare today. He came home and I noticed he was wearing a three-quarter sleeve shirt. I looked at the tag - 12 month... he juuuuust started wearing 24m/2T! Whoops, guess I need to swap out his extra clothes there!
Last night I dreamt that I was on vacation with a few people from high school. Suddenly my old HS crush turned into a fucking shark and (violently and vividly) ate another one of my classmates.
This is the 3rd day in a row for death dreams. Wheeee.
Also, the eaten is now a Rodan and Fields rep, so I was kind of okay with her being dream eaten.

I should warn you though, while I havent dream killed you yet, I dont think anyone is safe. Also last night (same dream) a woman in my dream was turned into a stuffed animal and I had to find a tennis ball covered in her blood and some knife thingie in order to save her. I cant make this stuff up.

2nd betas are back - rise from 142.7 to 257 in 43 hours. 79% increase. I know this is okay, but I don't like that it didn't double. They have me going back Monday & Wednesday for 3rd & 4th betas, & my PgAL brain is making me just want to cry my eyes out.

So many hugs. PgAL is a bitch.
If it helps at all, your doubling time is 50.66 hours, which is very, perfectly normal. I use this website to plug my betas in and it gives me a lot of peace of mind.
DS and I slept for over 11 hours last night...I'm blaming it on his lack of a nap yesterday. I have to catch up on some work today and we're going to get out and enjoy the sunshine!
**trigger warning: spotting***
We went to the zoo yesterday and afterwards I noticed a very small amount of (red) blood-tinged discharge on the TP after peeing. No cramping and nothing much since but I can't keep my brain from going to negative places. I called the ob nurses' line and the nurse I spoke to was very dismissive and made me feel silly for calling. I go in on Tuesday so at least I don't have a super long wait. Until then, I'll be over here trying to not freak out.

thinkingofthree I'm sorry the numbers aren't where you want them. I hope they look better in your next betas!
Cythe Seriously with these intense pregnancy dreams. And for me it's that some feel so real too.
One day last week my grandfather who passed last month came to me in a dream and said he was very happy about the new baby. I've been so sad that I won't be able to announce to him. He just loved his grands and great-grands so much.

Perfectly normal to have some spotting after abnormal exertion! I'm sorry the nurse was dismissive and rude, though. What a bitch. :/
Inb4 anyone has a panic attack about it, a hard poop can also cause spotting. Basically, if you have a higher than usual amount of strain or do a bit more exertion than usual, it's not incredibly uncommon to see a bit of spotting. That said, if you are worried or freaked out, call in. Early pregnancy is mentally rough and peace of mind is absolutely priceless right now. <3

How special is this!! I have a thing for dreams - just not the man/shark people eating kind. I truly believe that your grandfather stopped by to let you know that he is with you and so happy for you.

I feel like absolute garbage today. So nauseous but not actually puking. Not sure which is worse. And so tired I feel like I'm in a haze. Going to be doing the least today
LT for support. Sometimes I wish I would throw up because then I might feel better. I feel so nauseous but also hungry at the same time. Food is absolutely not appealing at all. I hope your nausea eases soon.

The bolded is the story of my lyfe
I have partially the opposite problem, I'm having MS but food still sounds good until I eat it. Then I have the regrets for about an hour.

thinkingofthree, hugs! I will be thinking of you and keeping everything crossed that baby picks it up
bubblefan, i also had the tiniest bit of spotting after wrestling my kid on the playground. First tri is the worst because everything is so terrifying.
I went to the DMV early this morning to renew my license. No change of address but needed to take a vision test. I waited an HOUR. Got called to the desk and apparently, I logged into their system (just logged in, didn't change anything!) back in March of 2013 and therefore needed to provide proof of address.
So I ran to my office to print bank statements and utility bills and ran all the way back to the DMV. Luckily they gave me a no-wait card, but still. I wasted an entire morning. There have got to be more efficient ways to handle these things.
That is the worst. I'm so glad I haven't had to wait long at the DMV since I started going straight to the county office instead of the hole-in-the-wall places. I think I've had to wait 20 minutes once?
Also, here our DMV and DOL are separate. So we don't have to deal with people getting our licenses at the same time and I'm trying to renew my tabs. It's kind of a nice system.
