I keep thinking. OMG! I AM having a baby! There's still this tiny part of me that is afraid that something bad is going to happen, but each day that passes by it seems more and more real. I don't think I will feel really good about things until I hear my baby's heartbeat, but it is starting to really sink in that this is really happening!
No, it hasn't sunk in yet at all. Like Theresa, not until I see/hear the baby's heartbeat will I be able to accept this pregnancy but even then it will take me a few more weeks of waking up and thinking, "I'm not pg" then realizing that yes, I am!

VERY cautiously expecting after two losses early 2013. Hoping and praying my Valentine's Day due date baby sticks this time.
Not at all! I don't feel pregnant, the bloating is starting to subside. My boobs are getting less sore. I never felt normal again after the positive test with DD so this seems too good to be true. I keep waiting to see blood or find out it was all a dream or something.

So surreal to me still. This is my first and I an a worrier anyway, so I will admit I just simply can't stop worrying about every little thing. I FEEL pg, sometimes more than others, exhausted, sore bbs, light nausea. But I agree with seeing the u/s and heartbeat, it will take that before it sinks in. I feel like I can't wait another whole week!
NOPE not at all...Im still waiting for AF to show up in the next few days. Even though I keep taking tests to make sure they are getting darker, it just wont seem real until probably about 10 of 12 weeks im afraid. I do love the KNOWING part. I KNOW im pregnant but i dont FEEL it yet!
I don't know when this will ever sink in, every time I've been pregnant it had ended in loss. I'm hoping that we see a strong heartbeat on friday and maybe I will feel a little more sure then...
I don't know what I feel. This is my first time to ever be preggo! I can definately tell my body is different and I definately have some light symptoms but other than that not much has changed but the knowing in my mind and my heart that there is a precious little life growing inside of me...I am praying it will stick and grow up strong and healthy!

I'm the same way. I worry about everything. Sometimes I think its all not real, then it hits me I really am. After I actually see the baby it'll sink in
Definitely with the rest of you... I'm excited, but it hasn't officially set in yet until we have the sonogram and see/hear the heartbeat!

yeah the nausea is making it seem quite real. When I'm not feeling sick I kinda...forget! I'm sure once we tell everybody at Christmas and I start going to the dr/getting ultrasounds it will feel more real though.

Not at all, it took three years to get ds and for it to have only taken 11weeks for us to get this one seems so unreal, but when I see my betas it sinks in a little big more, but then I feel in shock again that I'm going to be a mom again and my kids will be a few days shy of 11months apart!

Oh it's real to me...my sore boobs won't let me forget it! But what's not real to me is the fact that this one is going to last. I'm still not feeling the optimism. Even after seeing the heartbeat....I just keep thinking that anything could happen between now and my next appt. I truly don't think I'm going to feel secure until the 2nd trimester. I want to talk about the baby and truly believe that he/she will be here in August...I just don't believe it yet.
It hasn't sunk in yet at all. I am so nervous that something will happen.... I think that I may actually take the ticker off my signature cause it makes the days seem to go by even slower! I just want to get to Jan. 4th and see my baby's heartbeat.
It hasn't sunk in for since my DD seems to take my mind away from being pg. When I was pg with her all I could do was think about being pregnant. I think once I actually make it to 12 weeks and hear the heartbeat I will really start realizing it is real!

It definitely hasn't fully sunk in yet. I mean, I know I'm pregnant, but I'm so worried about having a miscarriage. I love having symptoms, though. My boobs are really sore and I'm peeing every 5 minutes. I LOVE IT!!!!

I feel the same, completely. I don't want to let my guard down and let myself dream, because it has not ended up well in the past. I hope and pray each moment of every day that this time things will be different. After the 1st trimester I hope I will start to relax, and enjoy!

Me too! I can't wait to wear my maternity pants.
I'm sure once we tell everybody at Christmas and I start going to the dr/getting ultrasounds it will feel more real though.
