I had to check online to make sure what I've been going thru is actually morning sickness, what you see on tv and here all the time is morning sickness is the constant over the toilet throwing up. I haven't actually thrown up, but I have constant nausea starting the moment I wake up in the morning. The only thing that seems to help is eating, which I'm hungry ALL THE TIME...but when you feel sick to you stomach you don't really want to eat even though it makes it all better CATCH 22. I didn't have this with my first so I don't know what to expect, I just hope I can get over it soon.
I emailed the doctor today to ask if I could get an ultrasound at my first appointment to rule out the idea of twins...or confirm it. The nurse left me a message that she would let the doctor know and get back to me tomorrow, so look for an update tomorrow.

still worrying...but something different I no longer have the insomnia thank goodness, I wake up every morning sick to my stomach, but I never get sick. My back hurts really bad, I am about 2 cup sizes bigger and my stomach feels so heavy already. I have been freaking out thinking that I am going to have twins all day today, don't know why, talked to Kevin about it and told me know need to worry about it, if it is there is nothing we can do about so don't worry. He is right, I just need to wait and see...My first appointment is on March 19, so I will try to be patient.

Stop worrying, get some sleep It is now 5:34am, and yes I am up writing in my journal...why??? Can't sleep, checked online and it says it's normal, but very normal if you are worried. Yes I have been worried thinking this isn't really it mainly because I tested so early...but I just went to the babycrowd journal for my first pregnancy and seen that I found out I was pregnant in my third week with her as well, it makes me feel much better. So far nothing much has changed, still sleepy, a lil gassy (usually at night) and now insomnia. I called and scheduled my first appointment yesterday its on March 19th, so excited, about everything, ready to do this all over again

Surprise! Surprise! For the last couple of days I have been having tell tale symptoms, I've been really tired and taking long naps, headaches and some cramps. Today was 9DPO and I thought it might be too early...but with having symptoms for the last 3 days I thought maybe. I took a cheapie Dollar Tree test first thing this morning and it was a faint positive. I thought that was enough to tell Kevin, I had Kaniya give him a box and in it it said, I'm going to be a big sister Cuz mommy's pregnant. He was sort of in shock but happy. I had just took a progesterone blood test yesterday and when the doctor called he said my results were 25, really high, I told him I got a faint positive this morning and he said to retest and make an appointment for 4 weeks from now. I retested with a digital and First Response, both were positive immediately...its confirmed...I'm PREGGO!!
