I am hanging out with pink eye and a fever and a cold. Hoping not to infect DS. Last night my fever got up to 101.3, which made me nervous so I called my RE. Not much to be done except Tylenol and fluids, but this sucks.

danib glad the MRI came back normal but sorry you still have questions. Hope you can go home soon.
It's chilly and raining and I feel like we slept the day away. We're still in bed and it's already 11:30. I hate springing forward but I'm going to love having more sunlight in the evening again! More time for walks and enjoying our deck when it's warm out.

Hope to hear you're home and feeling well danib are they going to continue to try and figure out the trigger so that it can be prevented from happening again?
Ugh calindi I feel for you. It's not enough to feel like garbage, but to have the mindfuck of a fever too just sounds like hell.

@goldenlove I just started 'breakfast' at 11:30 haha. I swear that springing forward is more than just hour change by the way it screws with us so hard every year. I, too can't wait for the extra hour of sunshine and the nice weather that will hopefully be here to stay.

AFM it's a dreary and lazy day in my neck of the woods. H has his certification boards he's taking the first week of May and hasn't started prepping yet so we're on self administered house arrest for the next month. Fun times ahead.

Update: he has decided that he wanted to test the accuracy of our cars' automated tire pressure sensors.
This is after he spent a half hour running the generator dry because the gas 'sat too long' in it. He was supposed to be getting me eggs out of the garage fridge.
danib glad to hear you're doing better. Good luck with PT over the next few days. I'm a PT so i know what it's like in the other side of this for you. I hope this one helps you push back to your norm and gets you home quick!
It's been a great day so far: my kid slept great last night, we went to brunch this morning and now I feel a bit crappy! This makes me happy because my pgal brain had been telling me that no symptoms is a bad sign. I know that's not necessarily the case, but no one said I was being rationale.

I just got over pink eye. It is such an annoying "illness". Except I didn't have a fever or a cold, that kinda makes things more miserable I imagine. Sorry :/
hangry - I have never had pink eye before and never realized how uncomfortable it is! Add in the virus or flu or whatever.... I am just glad DS (14 months) is being a sweetheart today and playing happily by himself. He even brought me a book and his Elmo doll, sweet boy!

Ugh pinkeye is the worst! DS stayed with my in laws last night so got to sleep in for the first time in months which was amazing Waiting for morning sickness to start (it was around 5-6 weeks with my two other pregnancies) and trying not to be too freaked out that I don't have many symptoms yet. PgAL brain is a total bitch!

Just finished eating breakfast and it's 1:40. Better late than never I guess. After this weekend, I'm thinking my nausea is triggered from waking up really early. I feel it during the week but I feel great on the weekend after sleeping in. Stupid work!

hangry I feel ya on the PgAL brain and symptoms. I never had any symptoms until after 5 weeks on my son, yet my nausea this morning gave me a sense of relief (even though I'm pretty sure 4 weeks is still too early for symptoms).
I know, I will take it, even if I imagined the symptoms!
danib I'm glad your MRI came back good although I can only imagine that not having answers about your trigger is frustrating. Hopefully you'll be home in no time!!!
sophiegrace Eggs.. Is it so much to ask for? Just get the eggs. No test experiments... Just the fridge. Kind of cute though, my husband is like this too.
We actually had a very warm (but gray) day here and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I spent some time with my sisters, neice and mom - we went for a walk followed by lunch - my moms bday is tomorrow and it was nice to do an all girls thing.
I, too, have the freak outs about lack of symptoms. My first sign that I was having a CP a couple cycles ago was that I woke up one morning and my breasts were no longer tender - at all. So now my breast tenderness comes and goes and it's scary, I'm just trying to stay calm knowing I had ok betas - that's all I have to go on right now. But even my stomach feels less bloated than last week and I have no other symptoms (tomorrow is 5wks).

I went out on a boat earlier today! I was a bit anxious about how rough the water was going to be or if it would make me nauseous. It was great though! Is anyone else still peeing on sticks? I cannot stop! I have peed on 4 since my BFP, so 5 total. I am telling myself to stop but it's reassuring seeing the 2 lines.

Hey everyone! The last few days have been nuts between midterms and preparing for our open house today. I haven't had much time to check in so I am getting caught up now! I am so relieved this week is over. My spring break is this week and I get to kick it off with an ultrasound tomorrow morning...so excited (and anxious!). I don't think I can handle keeping my house "show" ready much longer. Off to catch up on the other threads...
I don't fear the lack of symptoms because I had none for quite awhile with DS, and even then they were mild. No nausea ever (lucky, I know).
I do fear multiples. We did Follistim and a trigger shot, and based on ultrasound done two days before the trigger, we had 4-6 follicles in the running to be mature in time for ovulation. I don't think all of them took, but I really hope we just have one more on the way. I can't imagine a challenging pregnancy with a young toddler, and I am supposed to fly to Utah for my brother's wedding (he asked me to officiate) in early October when I will be just about 32 weeks along. Last pregnancy, that was totally fine and we took a trip around then. If I am pregnant with twins, I doubt I'd make it.
cookswithwine9 I POAS this a.m, too I had one left and it was reassuring seeing that 2nd line appear so quickly!
I haven't had many symptoms so far but what I *have* experienced has eased up somewhat the last couple days. IIRC I didn't experience much for the first 6 weeks or so with my first pregnancy.
Hope you all had a great weekend despite losing an hour. We were busy with yard work yesterday (we're hosting Easter for my family and DH's so had some projects we wanted to do to get the backyard egg hunt-ready:) and today it was a bit rainy/overcast so we mostly hung out around the house. We all got good naps this afternoon, too.
I made a pan of brownies this afternoon so we're now enjoying those and watching TWD.
Unwinding after a day with the inlaws...I feel like I am leaving Bizzaro land sometimes after a few hours with them.
Sister in law is getting married to a divorced man with a young daighter this fall. She is 30 but acts 15.
At one point a few of us women were chatting and one person asked her how many kids her and her fiancé were planning on having and she replied 2. Then some one asks if that's two more or two total including step daughter. SIL get a legitimate disgusted look in her face and says "no two more, I want two kids with my own genes my kids are going to be so cute". I was appualed at her response. Not that she wants two more kids but her genuine reaction to it upset me. I've seen some other things with the stepndaughter that have concerned me and how she might be treated when other kids come along too. Sad.
danib DH and I thought it was a very good episode; lots of action, but also thought-provoking. Carol, in particular, turned in an amazing performance. Hopefully it will be worth the wait for you!
Have they given you a timeline for getting back home? I know you must be getting stir-crazy!

Re: the pregnancy apps. Ovia is pretty nice because you can input a lot or as little of your information daily, but Sprout is neat because of its interactive baby image.
Anyone else hoping to time maternity leave with the holidays from work?
I'm a little worried because we have a lot of paid holidays in November and December but I don't know if I'll get it while on leave. And I wonder if those holidays counts towards my 12 weeks of FMLA.
