Oh no Rach, hope it all turns out okay.
:wave: also hi everyone! I'm new here; been really reticent to sign up on any forums since we had such a disheartening experience TTC (started looking over my charts at the beginning of the year, and realized I hadn't ovulated in ages). But somehow we got a screaming positive 14dpo! And we left it at that. I get the feeling I'm the odd duck with my single test!
My current math puts us at a May 10th, 2018 EDD, so just shy of 6 weeks at this point. (Almost used to the weird pregnancy math!) Exhausted, my breasts have been driving me up the wall since before we tested, all food tastes wrong (but I'm still super hungry), and I seem to have come down with a cold...so far, so good!
First pregnancy for both me (33) and my husband (45); we're pretty excited and trying to temper the hope, as we know this trimester is the danger zone. Hope is starting to win and we're starting to let it. Have told our moms, my best friend, and my younger (step)sister, who it turns out is 4 weeks ahead of me with her second child! We live a few hours away from each other, but I am so excited to share this chapter with her. She's all enthusiasm and empathy.
