**April Bunnies 2015**

Thanks Rebecca! I'm going to go get a pedicure to help the time pass more quickly.

Beankeeper, will be thinking of you. FX everything's fine!

Oh, and Oswin, thanks for the info. I have eaten Balsamic a few times...I'm really not one to worry too much about every little thing. I figure most of that is only dangerous if you eat large quantities.

Hi Perplexed!! I remember you from the pregnancy boards from our last!! My DS is a couple weeks younger than your lo! And it looks like we may be due around the same time :thumbup: I'm not entirely sure but thinking I'm due around the 13th.
So glad to see you again! :hugs:

Hey Kala! I also remember you from the pregnancy forums! happy to see you again it's awesome we are due around the same time, I'm known to go over but I think last time I ovulated late.

Rachel I don't have an April birthday but my birthday is a few days before my dd's birthday, she was due in November but came early December!

I made the mistake of eating lettuce today I feel terrible. I ate quite a lot of bad things with full on taste so I wouldn't taste the lettuce anymore but once the taste faded I felt the lettuce again. it's not even the lettuce itself just the morning sickness. I have a bigger appetite now but not for any of the right things.
 
Lithodora I'm alone a lot too, so lots of time to worry!

Lets be alone together! :happydance:

It's a plan!

This came up on my Facebook Timehop today, and I thought of you

Spoke to the doc, to phone EPU first thing this morning. Got light cramping ATM. I'm my way home from work to rest.
 
Hello, mamas! I'd like to join, if I may.

I'm 37 years old, I have a daughter who's 2 years, 5 months old, and I'm about 7w3d along with this new baby. It took us two months to get pregnant with our first and 16 months with this one, with a chemical pregnancy in June. In fact, I was due to start clomid the next cycle. We had a consult with the fertility specialist on a Tuesday and I got my BFP that Friday. I'm on progesterone because my levels were on the lowish side when I did my day 3 & 21 blood tests a few months ago.

So far I have almost zero symptoms. I guess I'm a bit hungrier than normal, and a little more tired in the evenings, but other than a few minutes of mild cramping every couple of days, nothing. Maybe the beginnings of some food aversions.

My first pregnancy was the same, so I'm telling myself everything is good, but being three years older makes everything more scary. I had my first OB appointment and ultrasound the other day (and I could tell even my doctor was concerned about my lack of symptoms) and we saw a sweet little bean with a healthy heartbeat. I've had two tiny "spots" since then -- but it was a transvaginal US and I also had a pap smear, and with the progesterone I think my cervix might have been momentarily irritated.

So now I'm just waiting for the time to pass! Being of advanced maternal age I'm going to do the blood test screening at 11 weeks, but mostly just because I want to know the gender!

We haven't told anybody IRL except three friends. Not even our moms. I'm sort of not looking forward to the influx of grandma attention. Pregnancy is really personal to me (except of course I'll make friends with a bunch of strangers online and tell them everything).

Beankeeper, I hope resting does the trick!

This is how I feel too :rofl:
 
Thinking of you Beankeeper.

I don't like bean chilli anymore, couldn't finish it. That's one meal off my list!
 
Ditto Oswin and citymouse! I want to wait telling anyone irl (even my mom) because I'm a quite private person.

Fx for you beankeeper. Hope you feel better resting at home.

As for me symptoms seem to have gotten worse these last few days. Low energy, contant nausea, weird taste in mouth, always thirsty and more sensitive. Belly is constantly 'out' when pre-pregnancy always had a flat stomach which is so uncomfortable. Basically I feel like crap all day...

My oh says he feels sorry for me but I want him to take care of me more ;) I tell him that's what I need but he doesn't seem to hear it. Boo!

Have you tried giving him really specific requests? My DH isn't big on helping out around the house or stopping at the store or anything, but if I called him and said, "I NEED mashed potatoes from Kentucky Fried Chicken, and oh by the way there's one on your way home if you take X road," he would do it.

That's very good advice! I just wish he understood something on his own. I think that's what I'm after. I want him to be more attentive to my needs and take some initiatives on his own... but you are so right. If I need something I have to ask him!
 
I don't think I know a lot of men that are that attentive to go out and do things like that on their own, even my own male family members need to be told exactly what to do and how to do it in order to help. Basically, a step by step write out :rofl: I guess that's one of the perks of my relationship, we are both very in tune to what each other needs. Especially now that my wife is pregnant, I'm doing much more around the house than usual, without her asking, and only because I just picture her being exhausted and sick and doing the dishes-or laundry-or vacuuming and I don't want her doing that stuff feeling all crappy. So that thought guilts me into thinking about doing it myself :rofl: She's OCD, I'm not :haha:

On a side note-her hormones are throwing mine all completely off! I'm sure some of y'all have heard that when females live together....they kind of "sync up". Well we definitely were, and her hormones have thrown mine so off balance. I can't even explain it, but I cried thinking of a quit smoking commercial earlier-enough said :rolleyes:

My wife is feeling really crappy. Not ms or anything much anymore, thank God, unless she doesn't eat. But she feels "fat" and "gross" and just blahhhhh (her words, not mine). She thinks her stomach is poking out too, which I have noticed her normally very flat (and fit) stomach is harder and getting that "angle" you get before you start showing? Know what I mean? She just feels gross, I feel bad lol.
 
Oh no Eidson, that's not fair you getting sympathy pregnancy symptoms when you're not the one pregnant! I hope your wife feels better soon.

My OH asks me how he can help me, I keep telling him he could take his turn and be pregnant this time but he doesn't seem to be getting the hint...
