Re: FFFC!
YAY!!! I was just going to post this!
1. I quit my job almost 3 weeks ago and I am soooo bored at home. If I felt better I might get some packing done but instead I have spent 5 days on the couch.
2. I am staring at my phone trying to decide whether to call the nurse for some zofran. I am a whimp and cant take the m/s another whole day.

I'm afraid to tell my boss that I'm PG.
She's sending me back to college starting in summer and giving me a new position at work. I'm afraid that she's going to be p!ssed that I'll be going on leave as soon as I finish classes instead of jump starting the new job.
1. I'm terrified of telling work that I'm KU again. I'll have been back at work for well over a year by the time I go back out on maternity leave, but I work in a somewhat male-centric field and I have noticed that women who have families aren't as upwardly mobile as men...or women who don't have families. I have thought about becoming a SAHM, but I really don't think it's for me. I'm torn.
2. My mother's intuition sucks. With DD, I was 110% convinced she was a boy. I was shocked...pleased, but shocked that I was so off. This time around, I had a strange, nagging feeling that there could be more than one in there. At yesterday's u/s, only one sac was detected. So much for that.
3. Normally, I am disgusting by any and all gelatin products (because of what gelatin is made out of). m/s hit this week and someone here mentioned that Sour Patch Kids helped them. I ran out to buy some and am ashamed to admit that I kinda like them. A lot. It's not really helping my m/s, though.
This exactly, and it has me totally guilt-ridden...but not enough to jump into action!
This, exactly! Love it!

This!!! It's so me!
1. I had three glasses of wine and a ton of sushi two days before I got my BFP. And I don't care. I loved it and that's the last time I get to do that for a while.
2. I lost weight in the first tri with DD because I had no appetite. This time, I mostly feel fine and I've started gaining weight. I know you're SUPPOSED to gain weight but I'm already getting nervous about how much I'll gain and whether I'll be able to lose the pregnancy weight (and hopefully more) after this one is born.
I have lost about 5 pounds over the last 1 1/2 weeks, even though I eat normal. It worries me a bit, too, but I bet we'll gain it back in no time
I have a couple...
1) I had some spotting Wednesday and Thursday this week. So yesterday I went out and bought oh...7 more digi tests...took one at work and yup still pregnant, the spotting was freaking me out. I debated calling the Dr today to see if she would check my beta's today, but the spotting is gone today so I resisted, I am a nut case, this I know.
2) I feel like a lazy pile this week ever since I got my BFP I have stopped walking, lifting weights or pretty much doing anything, mainly because the spotting scared me and the weather this week has been so crappy, hopefully I can pick my workouts back up next week!

This is me - sort of. I got laid off in December and while I have been looking for a job and going back to school, I am SO bored and feel like such a drain on my husband, even though he would never say anything like that to me.
I don't really want to tell my MIL that I am pregnant because I have a feeling she will never leave us alone and I can only take her in very small doses.
Will baby #3 be another girl?

Agreed- we are doing 30+min walks nightly and I am looking at a couple yoga studios in the area!
I'm an idiot and re-posted FFFC above. I don't know how I didn't notice this one!
Here are mine:
1) I peed on another stick this morning at 21 dpo. I've probably peed on 8 or 9 total. I'm nuts. But after 13 months of stark white pee sticks, I'm still struggling to believe this is real.
This morning the test line turned darker than the control line. I'm praying this fact will prevent me from peeing on things again in the future.
2) I'm sick of hearing about the royal wedding. I couldn't care less about it.
9/2010: First visit to RE = CD3 b/w (normal); CD7 ultrasound (normal); DH's SA (normal but morph wasn't analyzed, so doc ordered a 2nd SA); Prog. supplements starting 3dpo for all future cycles
10/2010: SHG to check tubes (normal!) & DH's 2nd SA (normal)
2/2011: Start first Clomid + Ovidrel + IUI cycle = BFN
3/2011: IUI # 2 (Clomid + 50iu Follistim + Estradiol + IUI) = BFP!!!
Beta #1 (14 dpo)= 161
Beta #2 (17 dpo)= 518
Beta #3 (24 dpo)= 7,728

This for me, too!! My DD was born in May, so I also have very little summer maternity clothes. I already bought a few tops and a pair of pants and the box arrived this week. DH asked about them, and after I told them what they were, he said, "Really? Already?"
And to all the ladies worried about weight gain, I hear you. I lost all of my baby weight within 4 months after giving birth, but then over the course of the winter, I gained 10 lbs. At my OB appointment yesterday, I was SO relieved when my doctor didn't ask me to weigh myself. He's got a digital scale in his office and it always weighed me in 5 lbs. heavier than my scale at home! I'm really, really hoping that he won't ask me to weigh myself with this pregnancy. That was always the worst part of my OB appointments.
1) My symptoms are starting to go away and so I'm starting to freak that I'm about to miscarry like all the other times. If I could just make it through this weekend I would feel better because after today it will be the furthest I've made it in a pregnancy.
2) I'm POASaholic as well. I think I have at least 10 or 12 that I've done starting at 8dpiui. But I was testing out my trigger shot so thats why I started early. I just took one the other day to make sure I was still pregnant and I almost did another one just a little while ago but I resisted. I still have 2 left so I'm sure I will use them before my u/s on Thursday.
3) DH is really pissing me off with some of his antics recently. It's really one simple thing that he is supposed to be taking care of and it's still not done after 1.5weeks. Everytime I try to take care of it myself he gets pissy and insists he is taking care of it. Ugh MEN!
If you think you're nuts, you should see my bathroom drawer full of pee sticks. I lost count of how many. I finally quit doing it at 6w6d. Uh huh. I was crazy, but I'm recovering.
1) I had my first introduction to m/s this morning. As I was leaned over the toilet puking, I realized I was smiling because this was my first real symptom. I had been so worried because I hadn't 'felt pregnant' until this morning. I've never been so excited to puke which just adds to my belief that though pregnancy is awesome, its also weird.
2) The idea of breastfeeding freaks me out. Everything about. That I can actually produce milk as if I'm a cow. And the fact that someone will be living off of my milk. And the fact that a baby will be sucking my boob. All of it just really freaks me out. Yet, I'm still committed to doing it.
3) I want to tell the world. I'm not even 7 weeks pregnant but it's my first pregnancy and I literally want to tell the world. I'm going to try really, really, really hard to wait until 12 weeks... ugh, seems like forever.
We're holding off on telling any family so I can go to my last weightlifting competition without being hasseled about it. I know my MIL would flip out even though I cleared it with my OB, general practioner, M/W and coach before we even started trying. My mom would not be happy either.
Lifting is my "me" time and since that is going to be hard to come by with a baby, I wanted to get in one last attention hoarding, selfish, all about me weekend before I have to quit for the pregnancy. I'm hoping to lock in my first 240 deadlift.
My thoughts exactly!
