-
I'm absolutely freaking out - I haven't been very active on these boards lately, but I just got a positive test and aaaaaah! I'm assuming my EDD will be in February at this point. I'm REALLY hoping so, at least, since I just started a job with amazing benefits and I have to be there a year before their maternity leave takes affect. :S

-

@mrskrumpet: No morning sickness here. I read it typically starts around 6 weeks and I at 4 weeks and 4 days I think. I didn't have any MS with my first pregnancy, so I am kinda hoping it is the same this time around!

(My daughter had a virus this weekend that they were afraid might be harmful to a fetus. It's been a scary few days, but it looks like 1. It probably wasn't one of the dangerous ones, and 2. I haven't caught it yet! We have to get bloodwork done if I develop a fever though.) I'm so excited to be here to go through this journey with you girls! I had a slightly complicated pregnancy last time but still absolutely loved it, and can't wait to do it again:)
-
And here is my pee stick progression. I am so excited to have a good one I can't help but want to share!
Here are 10, 12, and 14dpo. Sorry if its tmi Anyone else have one to share?? -
@CObee: they look awesome! I took digital- so no progression! I had a cheap-o test that I couldn't read so I broke out the fancy one!
-

Anyone here have to fib or pretend drink yet? We are extremely social and me turning down a glass of wine would never happen. We have a wedding coming up and a week-long trip with DH extended family. The vacation is at a lake house so full of day drinking and drinking games in the evening.
The wedding I think I can just hold a beer and/or get sprite with a lime. Any ideas for the week long vacation? Virgin sangria? Virgin Bloody Mary?
I'll only be 6weeks and his mom his such a worrywart. I want to wait till we have a heartbeat to spill the good news! -
@LibbyLou: I buy fake wine at the grocery store and put it in a real wine bottle. I also made fake sangria.
Good luck!!
-
@Mrs. Champagne: what is this fake wine you speak of? Just NA? In the wine section?
-
@LibbyLou: NA and it was in the regular drink section. (I'm in Ontario so no wine section at the regular grocery store)
-
@Mrs. Champagne: Oh, I love the fake wine in a real wine bottle trick. I'm going to have to use that one.
@LibbyLou: I've done a root beer bottle in a bottle koozie before, but the smell could give you away. Maybe just an empty bottle in a bottle koozie. I don't think it's realistic to fake everyonet out for a whole week though. I know my family would catch on.
-
@LibbyLou: I feel you - I have a wedding in a week and a week long beach trip with extended family next month. I never turn down a drink (you should have seen me at the bachelorette party 11 days ago!) so I will definitely be raising a few eyebrows. I can probably fib through the wedding, but there's no way I'm making it through vacation! I didn't really want to tell family until 8-12 weeks...
-
@ms.line: same all around. Just got invited down Dow my weekly wine Wednesday with the neighbor. I'm bringing down my copper mug and saying I was in the mood for a Moscow mule. (Filled with water). As for vacations- ay yi yi. We may end up getting caught.
I am going to ask for beers while in the lake at least once a day and then slowly pour it out. Hoping no one will see!? Who knows.
These are good problems to have though compared to our last months problems -
@LibbyLou: I lol'd at the mental image of you pouring beers into a lake!
Agreed, they are better problems to have, but I'm still on pins and needles. Think I'll "officially" join this thread after my second betas come back on Friday.
-
Can't believe I'm joining this thread! I'm trying not to worry and be optimistic until there is a reason not to be!
Location: Wisconsin
EDD: February 23
How far along: 4 weeks, just POAS this morning
First child? yes!
First doctor appointment: waiting to hear back
Any symptoms so far? Nope. I really didn't think I was pregnant, so while I wasn't surprised I got a positive, I wasn't really expecting it.
I am the MOH in a wedding this weekend! I think I am just going to hold a drink all night and volunteer to be the designated driver.
Who have you told? Just DH.
So excited to get to know everyone. Here's to a happy and healthy 9 (8?) months for all of us!
-
@TemperanceBrennan: yay! Congrats!!! We are due date twins! After least for now
Have fun at the wedding this weekend.
