I've been up since 6am. Went in for some repeat blood work to ease my mind about the spotting (hopefully that's what it does!), which I had again this morning. I'm praying it's just from the progesterone supps that I have to stick up there 3x a day. I seriously just read through the entire PAIF spotting thread for reassurance.
MH is up working from home today, but my parents are still asleep! Lazy bums. I need someone to wake-up and entertain me.

I'm at work but I don't feel like working. Lucky for me, none of the reports I need are working properly, so I can basically do none of the things I was supposed to do today. So zero guilt about being lazy.
yessss. I love when my system is down and I have no guilt lazy day!
I didn't sleep well at all last night, I was really anxious and nervous about this pregnancy. I was so excited to tell our parents on Thursday but now I don't want to tell anyone b/c I have this horrible fear of MC. I've never had a loss before, but my BFF had 2 before having her rainbow and my SIL had a loss this time last year. I know I'm not being 100% rational, but I'm worried b/c I don't "feel" pregnant, ie MS hasen't kicked in and that makes me worried... Is anyone else having crazy anxiety? Would it be crazy to run to the dollar store for cheepies to test a few more times? Ack, its gonna be a long 9 months...
We're planning to start telling on Christmas and I've been waffling hardcore, too. I'm so nervous/paranoid about giving everyone else false hope (especially since they've had their own feelings to deal with about our IF), that waiting seems like a better option.
On the other hand, if I do lose this child, will I ever forget? Will I regret not celebrating them and hiding them from more people that would give them every ounce of love they have? A friend once said she's choosing joy over fear after she got pregnant with her rainbow. I may have never had a loss, but I'm clinging onto that.
You don't own me anymore, IF. I beat you, I win, and this is my victory lap.

I am obviously in no way trying to tell you what to do. But I will say that it was incredibly awkward telling our families about our loss when we had never told them about the pregnancy to begin with. We debated not telling our families at Christmas since my first u/s isn't until the 28th, but ultimately decided that it would be better to let them celebrate with us, even if it's only for a few days.
But again, it is 100% a personal decision. I totally understand the side of not wanting to tell anyone, because part of me still does feel that way!

We are still planning to tell on Christmas. I'm just nervous as hell about it, haha.

Oh I'm with you! I was feeling totally fine about it. But then when I realized Christmas is THIS week? Now I'm getting super nervous.
musicgirl, you have made me feel 100% better. Thank you. I would very much regret not telling our parents when we have this amazing chance to celebrate together. And I can't control everything, it's not like keeping it a secret makes a MC less likely. I'm gonna choose joy. Today, I'm pregnant and I'm pretty damn excited about it!
Last night I started being violently ill. I was up all night puking and have been sick all morning. Can't keep Gatorade, ginger ale or even water down
I was never sick with my first, just felt nauseas. Is this "morning sickness" or do you think it's something different like the flu or food poisoning? I didn't eat that great over the weekend and no fever. I'm 7 weeks
Edit: I know you're not doctors, guess I'm just looking for others experiences

Each pregnancy is different, it could just be that you're getting ms this time around. If you're not having any other flu-like symptoms, I'd assume that's what it is.

Thanks! I just thought it was weird that it came out of nowhere and that it is so bad. Ugh I hope I don't feel like this every day
