At the risk of sounding like a complete asshole...
I really, really didn't want to buy any new maternity clothes this time around (same due date as DD1, and DD2 was a late fall baby... So the seasons have more or less aligned) I'm ten weeks tomorrow but I look 15w, I swear. I pulled out maternity pants, but nursing has me 10lbs lower than I was when I got PG with DD2, and 20lbs less than DD1, which is when I bought 90% of my maternity clothes. So they're all too big. Which makes me mad. Even though it really shouldn't. It's so, so stupid but I DONT WANT TO BUY MORE MATERNITY CLOTHES. <end rant>
This sounds like a nice problem to have! I'm going to buy some more shirts and probably pants too before the new school year just because mine are all worn down.

I have a babe. One baby with a heartbeat. My OBGYN office is small and the equipment is not great. So they are sending me to the hospital next week to have an official dating ultrasound. I'll have more information after Friday. I'm so relieved the first hurdle is done.

sarahandben108, congrats! I'm glad you're past the first hurdle. I feel like pregnancy is a contest where the prize for waiting is more waiting. But to keep waiting is winning!

I know I shouldn't be mad. It just feels like a waste of money... I know. I need to just shut up. But it's bugging me. Plus I was really hoping I could just put on my maternity pants and be comfy today. No dice.

Girl, I wish I had your problem. Lol.
I know how ridiculous I sound. I do. I need to get over it.
2. For the last week or so, I've noticed my left boob feels particularly swollen. Lefty was always the smaller of the two, produced less milk when I was nursing, and by the end of my nursing relationship, was nearly a cup size smaller. Now in addition to feeling much fuller than righty, it's bigger. Has anyone else had their girls switch like this? I'm planning on mentioning it to my doctor but it seems super odd to me given how consistent they had been for so long.
lycih - I have the same problem because I started my pregnancy with my daughter 30 lbs overweight. I gave away what I hoped would never work, and have some that fit surprisingly are ok despite the weight differential. It's nice to be thinner (especially since society seems to place such a premium on it), but frustrating to have to replace so much of your wardrobe, especially if you plan on this pregnancy being your last.
Sending you good vibes for tomorrow's appointment @officedronette!
Re: boobs, my left was always the bigger/better producer with my DD. I think subconsciously I nursed better on that side because I'm right handed and preferred that hand free to do stuff. But even now my left seems more swollen so I'm not sure about yours switching.
Thanks y'all. All is well. I love that office. They are so kind. Baby is so active!! And they moved up my due date based on today's visit - measuring 10w even and pushed up date to 12-8.
So much good news! Congrats on seeing those babies, sarahandben108, cutay, @officedronette!
And HELL YES for progesterone graduation, jrun2013, mleep! To echo what others have said, notelsie, I was given the green light at 9 weeks, which the RE told me is a week or more extra than anyone really needs.

How many weeks are those of you quitting progesterone?
I was 12w with DS, but I'm being told to stop at 10w. Of course my numbers were better this time so I guess it makes sense?
I was 12 wk with DD under my RE. Last pregnancy I wasn't on them. I think my OB wants me on them until 12 weeks this pregnancy, but I'm hoping maybe a little early since my numbers haven't been low at all (he just figured it can't hurt) and it's not covered by insurance.

Yay! Glad it went well!
I started getting nervous last night about mine today. My mind went to well I'm still sick, so that means it's still growing, but what if it's measuring small. Noon (let's be real my office is slow AF so I probably won't even be seen until 1) can't come soon enough.
In the meantime I'm nauseous AF at my desk trying to focus on my deadline.

Good luck!! My nerves picked up majorly yesterday because I suddenly felt really good. DH and I took advantage of it and had an impromptu pizza date, which was awesome. But the whole time, I wondered if this was the first sign that something might not be right. I even enjoyed the smell of coffee this morning when I walked into work. However, the nausea seems to be creeping back in, so maybe my anxiety will slow itself. Waiting until Wednesday afternoon is going to be rough.
ldubhawksfan, solidarity sister, and good luck. So far I've had to eat: a BEC on GF toast, a jolly rancher, an entire large bag of Bugles, and a string cheese. It is noon here. Neither the string cheese nor the Bugles were lunch. I just NEED to eat at all times or I feel completely shitty.
I was so nervous, and I got a little freaked out when I was sitting on the table and realized my sunglasses were on my head, because I got this vivid memory of my sunglasses on my head when my MMC was diagnosed. But all was really well. The doctor was like, I know you have trouble believing it, and outlier events do happen, but the risks are very very low, and the odds are very very good that you will take this baby home (he said he'd go with around 98% at this point). You can be positive. You can be excited. I'm going to just keep trying to repeat that to myself until it sinks in.
leekpartyof2, the nausea does eventually go away, or at least mine did. It wasn't really until week 14-15. And at that point I started randomly puking. But I preferred the random pukes (where I would suddenly be sick but before and after feel fine) to the feeling hungover and like shit for weeks.

Agreed... I've been in the nagging, nearly constant phase for almost two weeks and while it's getting old, I'm not sure that 7w2d is far enough along for things to be getting better already. It's really just that I'm so anxious for this appointment on Weds because it just doesn't seem real and I need something to ground me... a flicker, a heartbeat, something...
