5w0d

Any appointments or testing this week?
Nope one next friday though for blood work and intake

How are you feeling?  What symptoms do you have this week?
I was having crazy heartburn but its seemed to subside

Rants/Raves/Questions?
Haha not yet just trying to survive these next few weeks

GTKY: Have you told anybody already?
I have told my stepmom and my best friends. I dont have the most supportive family and if I told everyone right now there would be a lot of unnecessary drama that I dont need right now

How many weeks are you? 5 weeks 0 days!

Any appointments or testing this week? Not until 5/1.

How are you feeling? What symptoms do you have this week? Tired, as per usual, but that's about it at this point.

Rants/Raves/Questions? None!

GTKY: Have you told anyone yet? My parents know, one of my friends who knew we were trying, and the girls from my first BMB that I still talk to daily. We're going to tell my in-laws this weekend. Aside from that, we plan on waiting until 12 weeks to tell anyone else. And we probably won't announce on social media until much much later, if we do at all.

@drablnd Would you edit the title so it includes 4/5?

How many weeks are you? 4w0d

Any appointments or testing this week? Beta today, and I'm assuming a 2nd beta Friday or Saturday

How are you feeling?  What symptoms do you have this week? I'm exhausted. I don't know if it's pregnancy fatigue, or just general life, but I can barely stay up until 9pm these days. I'm still really early, so I don't expect much for another week or two. 

Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm so ready to start feeling pregnant. After struggling for so long to get here, I want something to feel different, unique. Something that tells me, yup, I'm KTFU. 

GTKY: Have you told anybody already? Uh yea. My mom, my BFF and a close friend at work. We did IVF this cycle and I wasn't shy about sharing that information with people, so everyone's staring to ask "when we'll know?" I'm certain I won't be able to wait until 12 wks to tell a lot more people, mainly because so many will ask about IVF.

@drablnd I have crazy heartburn too but only at night!
@kmallery08 Good luck with Betas!
@vvitchhazel I have trouble distinguishing sluggishness to this pg or life in general. It's been so rainy here that I think it's affecting my energy!

How many weeks are you? 5 Weeks

Any appointments or testing this week?---TW Loss--- I had an early ultrasound yesterday and baby is in the right place.  We are a high risk pg because of my last ectopic which caused my anxiety to skyrocket. I think we get weekly ultrasounds until further along in the pregnancy.  Not sure though.

How are you feeling?  What symptoms do you have this week?
My boobs were like laser boobs last week and now they are just sore with very tender nipples. 

Rants/Raves/Questions?
My baby is in my UTERUS!  This is a huge milestone for us.  Last baby was in the cornual area of my uterus only 2mm from being viable.  It was devastating.

GTKY: Have you told anybody already?
We have decided to wait to tell people including family for a bit. The first lost was very difficult for us.  We hope to tell families at 8 weeks and privately tell others at 12-14 week mark.  I am a teacher and I think I will formally announce to my coworkers the last week of school.  

So glad to meet you ladies!

@justsuzie So happy to hear this one is in your uterus! I've had major laser boobs the last couple days. My DH keeps poking them. Fortunately they're not sore yet or I might jab him back.

How are you feeling?  What symptoms do you have this week?  Pretty good just a little tired and mildly nauseated. I was deathly tired last week though !! 

Rants/Raves/Questions?  Not yet . 

GTKY: Have you told anybody already? I have only told my immediate family. My husband doesn't want to tell his family till 12 weeks. The first time we waited like we are now. This past November we had a miscarriage and I ended up telling way to many people..... it was a little sad and I don't want to go through that again having to let everyone know l. It took weeks ! so my lips are sealed till I hit 13 weeks.

We are waiting too.  We didn't tell too many people the first time around and it was for the better because the recovery from the ectopic was so draining emotionally I don't think I could have handled condolences and explanations. Glad you are here.
