Rachel - To be honest, I've barely noticed my CM this cycle. I had a few days of creamy, and then since then I haven't really noticed any at all. If I check internally it just looks a bit 'wet' but nothing distinguishable. I do hope your CM is a good sign. The throwing up definitely sounds like it!
GRGirl - Haha Thank you! That's funny you yelled out loud. Did people look at you strangely? How was your appointment?
Munchkin - Cramps are totally normal!!!!! I remember when my co-worker got her BFP (she was one of those clueless girls who doesn't find out til 5 and a half weeks), she was complaining of cramps and kept saying, "I know I must not be pregnant, I have bad cramps and feel like AF is starting any minute" ... but sure enough, she was pregnant (around the same stage as you!) and she continued to complain of cramps for weeks. She's now 31 weeks and complaining constantly of back pain...and soon that will be you too! Have faith!
Elizabean - Aww, than you! I am glad your consultation gave you great results although it is unfortunate they were so unprofessional. Can't wait to see a few of those delightful scan photos. Can't believe you're heading toward the 2nd trimester already as well! You and IAW are like my idols.
LL - Oh right! Hurry up and wake up!
OH thinks I need to take some time out of BnB I woke up this morning and said 'Ooo my cycle buddy is testing today' the look on his face was priceless :') Why can't TTC just be simple for once
I just saw this now because I was in such a hurry this morning, but that made me laugh! I tell my dh about my BnB friends too. I think he's gotten used to it.
AFM - When I called my dr's office to confirm the pregnancy, I asked for a blood test instead of a urine test so I don't have to try to hold in my pee and go first thing in the morning. This way I'll find out what my hCG levels are, although she isn't doing any follow-up tests to see if they're doubling.
Something disconcerting about testing early is it's too early to have any major symptoms. I can't wait to start feeling sick to my stomach all the time! hahah. But I am feeling really hopeful today and have managed to avoid the worry.
