Here I sit before 5am eating 1 Cherrio at a time and sipping chocolate milk, wide awake and feeling pretty sick. Bittersweet as I am thrilled to be so full of pregnancy symptoms, yet really wanted to enjoy the yumminess of the holidays this weekend!
Blah! Must be another boy (yay) making Mommy just as sick as the big brother did!
Merry Christmas Ladies!
On a side note.....ease my mind on spotting. ONLY first thing in the a.m. after using the bathroom (TMI, BM) I get a tiny swipe of brownish/orange. Nurse said all normal but you know how it is! When should this stop?
Re: So it begins
Oh, so sorry about the nauseous....hopefully it is short term, like less than 24 hours
!
Spotting normal, but still normal to be freaked about about it, as that is what we women do, especially when it comes to our LOs
. I think that mine lasted a few days to a week.
Merry Christmas S, what a wonderful gift this year for you and your family!
I feel you on being awake and nauseous. Ugh. I spotted at 5, 6, and 9 weeks with C. And had 4 days of spotting with this pregnancy at 7 weeks.
Merry Cristmas to you as well!

Nausea stinks. I was nauseous last Christmas with T, it was so hard to keep my pregnancy secret because of it. I barely ate any Christmas food, so I'm doubling down this year. You can do the same next year!
That amount of spotting sounds totally normal, especially after going to the bathroom. I spotted with R from 5-7 weeks and I spotted and bled with T too.
Hey, you know what I was thinking last night - when your sd tells her mom about you being pg, do you think she is going to be like wtf I made him get a V? haha
Bleeding was the only mutual symptom I had with these 2 pregnancies. It is totally scary though. With dd I spotted every single day thru the whole 1st trimester and half way into the 2nd trimester. With ds, I had 2 big bleeds in the 1st trimester, but no spotting. On the upside - call monday, maybe it will get you an earlier ultrasound!
I had spotting this pregnancy too, for a few days, every time I wiped. I'm sorry you're feeling icky. Every time I would get nauseous I would tell myself "I'd rather be pg and nauseous than not pg and not nauseous." It got me through! I can't WAIT to hear how your family responds to the news!
And ditto JnK, maybe you could request an earlier ultrasound?
No experience with the spotting, but I totally feel your pain with the m/s. I have been so incredibly sick since Thanksgiving day. I finally got started on Zofran last week and was dangerously close to paying the ER a visit over the weekend (the thought of Christmas in the ER was the only thing that kept me away).
I hope you feel better soon.
