Crap. I must have jinxed myself by saying I didn't have any nausea yet. It hit me hard tonight while I was feeding my son. Everything I was feeding him made me want to yark. And now I'm nursing some toast and water and exhaling to prevent running to the bathroom to hug the toilet. Ugh...this is way too early for this to start!

@simplyfelicity: Morning sickness is crafty, it works in weird ways

@sweetooth: Oh no! I hope you feel better soon!

@simplyfelicity: oh no? Why? I hope she is ok

@travelgirl1: Thank you - I have a feeling though that this may stick around (I hope it does because I want the baby to stick around!) Still - I already threw up last night and this AM. I'm trying to remember what I ate last time when I felt this nauseous...

@simplyfelicity: That's too bad about Boheme! I hope she is ok too.

@fuzzypeaches: I do have some ginger hard candies. Maybe I need to get some more ginger things...

@Candy_nee: Would it be a dead give away if you said, "My stomach is a little upset, I think I'll stick to sparkling water tonight"?

@sweetooth: I think that may be a little transparent. Ugh! This is tricky!

Congrats on your beta! Woo hoo!!

@sweetooth: Yay for doubling numbers! Boo for not feeling well.

I started feeling sick when I waited too long to rat. It was only a couple hours. Yikes!

@Candy_nee: What about saying you are watching your figure or something?

@LindsayInNY: I was going to go with posting on Facebook about a migraine or something like that. She's FB obsessed and I get migraines enough it won't seem suspect.
@simplyfelicity: Well, we will be at a steakhouse, so not sure how believable that would be. But otherwise a great suggestion!

@Candy_nee: FB is an awesome way to do it!!

@simplyfelicity: I'm the nosy one hovering on two due date threads, LOL!! (EDD is June 26!) Feeling almost 100% which I'm trying not to read into. I did schedule an appointment with my ob/gyn since I don't know when my RE will "graduate" me. So I have appointments next Friday the 14th and then the following Friday the 21st (we're on vacation the week of Thanksgiving)! The receptionist person helped reassure me though - recommended the appointment before Thanksgiving instead of after for that reason and said she had no symptoms with her triplets either! I'll take the bigger boobs for now then How are YOU doing?!

Anyone thought about how they would announce to family and friends? Given our history, we are going to wait until Christmas. I am potentially fine with telling family at Thanksgiving after the ultrasound. If we wait until Christmas, I was going to give the grandparents a framed copy of the 12 week scan (hopefully they give you copies then?) as Christmas gifts. Last time, we told them with grandparent books at 8 weeks, so I want to do something different.

@Tidybee: I have been thinking good thoughts for you today and for great numbers.

@simplyfelicity: I'm 6w5d, I believe? I'm the last on the June thread. Womp womp LOL! Thing is, I can't tell if my tiredness is normal or more so than usual?

As for announcing, we're waiting for Christmas. I fit in better on this thread for this since most of the June girls are announcing by Thanksgiving! We're out of town for Thanksgiving so it'll be a pretty easy secret to keep. Not sure entirely what we'll do yet though. We're heading to my parents on Christmas Eve so we might have to tell them that night, depending on how I look. (Plus I can't really hide the lack of alcohol from them!) My in-laws we will have to do via Skype. We're thinking small gifts for each?

@Tidybee: Sending all of the your way!!!

I think I'm the odd one out, but I want to announce NOW, ha ha. Well, after my loss at eight weeks, when we hadn't told anyone, I wished so hard we had announced while there was still a baby to celebrate instead of grieve for, so I decided next time I would announce ASAP. We'll tell my family at the weekend, I'm leaving the inlaws up to DH. I guess he'll wait a month.

@travelgirl1: I definitely waffle but I honestly didn't find having my family (or anyone else) know beforehand any different than had they known until after. I think I am also just more sensitive and careful because my second loss was so recent.
I think it's great you are going to be so open with your family and I am sure they will be over the moon with happiness for you.

@travelgirl1: Holy crap! How did I miss this fabulous news?! I am sooooo happy for you! Congrats!

@simplyfelicity: I didn't know grizz/boheme was the same person!! I can't keep up with everyone haha!

@Reese: try taking your prenatal right before bed. That way hopefully you can sleep through the queasiness.

Nothing new with me. Feeling extremely tired but that's about it. Oh and super sore nipples. I even made a separate post about it haha! I'm still nursing my toddler but the pain is unbearable. All I can think about is my nipples

So, I think the exhaustion is setting in?! I am so tired I can barely think at work today! Still feeling good overall though - food doesn't seem to be agreeing with me but I don't know if that si baby related?

Ultrasound tomorrow at 4w6d - I am bracing myself for seeing nothing but the gestational sack. I kind of wish they had just done another blood draw and then u/s/ next week when there will be more to see.

I guess I am just staying cautiously optimistic at this point.

@sweetooth: not really sure - i should have asked but was so happy with the high beta number but i didn't. from my googling it seems like they want to make sure that it is not eptopic (bc of the early spotting)? the dr told me that once numbers are iver 1,500 they could do an u/s. On Monday my numbers were almost 2,200 so looks like we should be able to see *something* tomorrow.
