So I realize that I have not updated this blog since I first started it. What can I say though, I have like a million blogs because... 1. I forget to update and 2. I forget so long that I lose my password and everything. So I'm really trying not to do that here. This blog kind of got screwed up though. It was originally intended to be about our (my) infertility problems but I actually got pregnant sooner than I had expected. To be perfectly honest, I didn't think this would ever happen. Jay kept telling me that it would happen and I just needed to be patient and not lose hope. I think I should have listened.
Even though I was temping and charting everything, in October, I just kind of gave up so to speak about it ever happening. I broke down. Jay and I just kind of had a "moment" I guess you could say. We cleared everything from our minds and just had some fun and enjoyed each other. It payed off though. And here we are, 8 weeks tomorrow. I owe it all to Jay, for calming me down and making me relax. Basically just going with the flow of things.
Well since I cheated and copied my posts from my pregnancy blog <-- That's a link btw!, I guess I could at least put in some of the stuff I left out. Like symptoms for instance. If I happen to repeat myself from another post, I apologize, it's baby brain!
So lets see here... I started taking pregnancy tests around 8dpo (Days past ovulation), of course that was way too early but I did it anyways, tested on 8dpo,9dpo,10dpo and all came up negative. Allison (BFF) kept telling me over and over again to stop and that I was testing wayyy too early. She kept telling me that I was pregnant and that I just needed to way it out a couple of more days. So I finally listened to her and I stopped testing, I only had 2 more hpt's anyway. So I waited, I was supposed to get my period on 13dpo. Like I said in the other post, I woke up, took my temp, and my temp was still high. Now most of you don't know what the temps even mean. I will NOT go into that since I explain charting on a daily basis. It tends to get annoying after a while. I will however, tell you that when your period is expected, your temp will drop, so the fact that it was high is what prompted me to test with FMU (first morning urine). My first positive pregnancy test since I was pregnant with Briahnna. We all know how I reacted after seeing that so I don't need to go into details with that part.
So now I will skip to symptoms. The exhaustion and tender/sore breasts started wayyy before I ever got my positive. I thought it was just the progesterone since that gives you the same symptoms as pregnancy symptoms. I started getting nausea around 4 1/2 to 5 weeks, full on morning sickness hit me around 6 weeks. Now the nausea and breast tenderness is on and off and has been the last 3 days. Not really much changing right now, I hope the symptoms start leveling out though. At least I have those to reassure me that everything is going well and the baby is growing properly since I have to wait so long for my ultra-sound. I guess that's really all for now.
Oh one more thing... here's a pic of what the baby looks like as of tomorrow since I will be 8 weeks tomorrow!
