How far along are you? 5 weeks, 5 days
Any milestones passed? Not really... if I get into May I can breathe!
Any thing new to report (hb, u/s, etc)? Not yet...
How are you feeling? Depends on the minute. Last week I was much more nauseated and threw up a few times. The last few days the nausea has been better, although it comes in waves. My smeller is in high gear, I'm exhausted and my boobs ache like crazy! On top of that I've had very little cramping. All in all I feel very different than I did with either of my losses. And amazingly I'm staying really calm and I'm not too worried.
Next appointment and what for? (ie regular, u/s, bloodwork, etc) Have my first midwife appointment on the 26th and first u/s on May 2nd. I'll be 9 weeks.

How far along are you? 29w2d

Any milestones passed? Almost 3/4 of the way baked

Any thing new to report (hb, u/s, etc)? Next week I will! The hb was 136, of course all of those mid-wife tale believers think it's a boy...lol!

How are you feeling? Pretty good for the most part, but I want to be able to sleep again...my hip hurts and wakes me every hour and a half or so, readjusting is NOT easy

Now I have allergy symptoms, fun times...guess I need to get some Zyrtec

Next appointment and what for? (ie regular, u/s, bloodwork, etc) I have a level II u/s next week to check baby's kidneys to ensure there are only 2 (I had 3 that caused lots of issues when I was little, so they are monitoring this LO to ensure that isn't the case).
