Wow I can't believe I'm just waking up and we're already on the second page of randoms. (Hugs) to everyone who's having trouble sleeping. I've actually been seleping decently so far and I'm so grateful.
theophania, huge (((hugs)))! I don't blame you for being traumatized but I hope it gets better each day that goes by without an incident.
twinkie0612, I'm having sex dreams too! But when I'm awake I have like no drive because I'm tired and feel gross. I think it's been like a month for us, and we won't be cleared for sex until after our u/s.

Just checking in to say happy holidays! I just got back from Greece to visit DH's family (Whole week of DS being babysat and us sleeping in, yay!). We feel human again I hope everyone's miserably hanging over the toilet We're off to go eat sushi and drink champagne so who knows I might be joining in singing to the porcelein gods this evening. Big hugs to all!!!
I tried the Unisom B6 combo last night and actually feel ok this morning. I'm also heading in for my first appointment today. I should be right around 9 weeks- hopefully!
Oh god, I want to cry. The kids got kinetic sand all over the kitchen table and floor and then DH gave them pancakes. There is syrupy kinetic sand all over my kitchen

Blech. Thanks guys. I've been at work for 3 hours and haven't been to the bathroom yet so I have no clue what's going on. My cervix was touchy when I was pregnant with DS so, who knows.
I think I'm going to call my midwife at lunch and try to at least get an order for bloodwork or something??? Normally I'm a big, uh, just wait it out, don't waste time and money on testing right now but dammit if this is another loss then I'm getting sloshed on NYE.

Is it bad that I have had that thought too? Like I will be really really pissed if I spend the holidays feeling crappy and sick and not even enjoying one glass of wine if this results in another loss
I am laying down and the girls are very concerned. They keep giving me kisses and squeezing me. My youngest was trying to sit on my stomach and my eldest goes, "no! Our baby is in there and you'll squish him!" (She's convinced herself it is a boy.)
After all of my spotting and cramping I finally heard some good news this morning. I had an abdominal US and got to see my little bean:) Heartbeat 120 bpm and measuring right on track at 6w6d. The tech was able to see a spot of bleeding and said it was most likely from implantation and that I might bleed a little more. I was SO nervous. Thanks for everyone's support on my spotting thread-it got me through a pretty hairy week. Happy short work-week!
I got it cleaned up. The sand is getting put away for a loooooong time
Our kinetic sand was played with once after DD1 got it for her birthday. Then it was promptly put away and placed up high in the hopes she wouldn't notice it anytime soon. She'd forgotten about it, until yesterday when my BFF got her some floating sand/raft thing. *sigh* I hope my BFF knows payback's a bitch!
I feel so huge. I've stopped even attempting to hide it. I let it all hang out at my workout this morning. Pretty sure my trainer was trying to figure out how I went from nothing to 6 months pregnant in a week's time.

Nope, not bad at all. I just left a message with my midwife. They didn't suggest anything to confirm my first CP, I didn't call them for the second, but I just told them I need to figure something out today or tomorrow asap. Not only for NYE but because I want to try to get our RE appt back for tomorrow afternoon if this is another loss.
I'd be 5 weeks exactly today so I'd imagine they'd do bloodwork? I mean, they wouldn't see anything on an u/s at this point, right?

Xp from paif: Had my appointment. We've got one little one in there with a heartbeat of 113. I was wrong on my dates though (math yo!). Doctor said I'm 7w1d with edd of 8/15. Yay!!! And they actually released me today with referral to new OB as she said they'll get me in in two weeks. Also have to stay on all meds until 01/31 or day before 12 weeks. (Boo)

thechickencoop I do think 5w is too early to see much on an ultrasound, so I bet they do some bloodwork. Either way, I hope you get some reassurance. Hang in there, mama.

Please someone motivate me to clean my house. It seriously looks like a bomb went off here. I haven't done dishes or laundry or garbage in 6 days because we were gone so much over Christmas and I'm SO freaking tired ALL the time.
Now the house is so messy that it is overwhelming me and keeping me from even starting on anything.
My family is so needy too. I can't go 2 minutes without DD(4) DS(8mo) or DH(broken leg) saying "mama?!"
Do you ladies have a cleaning schedule you follow? Any tips for tackling the enormous mess? Keeping the family occupied?
TLDR: I'm tired(lazy?) and my house is a mess. Send help.
So I'm joining in on this board as well as September. I don't know my EDD yet, however, based on ovulation I am guessing August 31st. Since my last pregnancy went early, I am assuming this baby will be an end of August baby.
I totally feel you ladies on the insomnia..it is no joke. I will gladly keep the insomnia if it means I don't get as bad of heartburn as last time. *Wishful thinking*
redthestral13 I have no motivation to clean as well. All of our christmas gifts are just sprawled about. Not sorry about it either.
theophania sorry you are dealing with all those thoughts! Hugs!

I typically have a cleaning schedule so I just do a few things each day. However, between nausea and exhaustion I've just been doing the bare minimum. My H has been doing so much to help! Anyways, a typical week is similar to this:
M/W/F vacuum upstairs T/Th vacuum downstairs M all dusting and wiping of furniture T bathrooms W laundry Th mopping and baseboards wiped F overall pickup of anything I missed during the week
Every day of the week I run the dishwasher and do a solid kitchen clean up. The girls are required to pick up all toys before bed.

5 weeks is probably too early to see anything. I had an u/s with my RI at 4w4d to check blood flow and all you could see was a thickening of the uterine lining. I had an u/s at 5w6d with my RE after I had a gush of red bleeding and passed a few clots (ended up being from a SCH) and we could see the gestational sac, yolk sac, and fetal pole (no heartbeat).
I would think they would run betas to make sure they are rising appropriately.
TTC #1 since August 2011 DH (32): SA is ok, slightly low morph, normal SCSA Me (32): Slightly low P4, hostile CM, carrier for CF, high NKC, High TNFa, heterozyogous mutated Factor XIII, and +APA October 2012-August 2015: 4 failed IUIs, 3 failed IVFs, 2 failed FETs w/donor embryos, 1 freeze all IVF, 1 Failed FET, and 1 cancelled FET November 2015: FET w/ DEm #3 Transferred 1 perfect 6AA blast
So I was sitting here eating saltine crackers and drinking my hot lemon water (thanks to whoever suggested that, btw) and suddenly decided a cheese roll-up would be amazing. Luckily we had one (very stale) tortilla in the fridge and some shredded cheese. I slathered it in Frank's Red Hot and it was amazing. But now I want more and I'm tempted to make a Taco Bell run.

I got a break from the insomnia last night. Still had broken sleep due to nursing DD 3-4 times throughout the night but my body needed that sleep so bad.
Also, +1 on the sex dreams. I had one that I had a one night stand with another woman and we knocked each other up... Lol.
