5 weeks (or close enough)

So, I ended up panicking a little bit and had my blood draw on Tuesday afternoon anyway.  I'm just nervous.  I got SUCH an early positive test that it was just weird for me.   Which is why, even though my Fertility Friend says I'm due Dec. 30th, I'm not really worrying about 3 days.   But, I just want to be sure that everything is ok.  And my doc didn't call to tell me the numbers or anything, which is fine, but I'm just sort of hoping that things are ok.

We are presently in Maryland, visiting Jack and Betsy.  It has been very nice so far.  Lots of outlet mall shopping.  I went hog wild at New York and Company, and I am hoping that some of the shirts will hang on for a while.  We also got to tell them in person that I'm pregnant again, which was nice.  We haven't been able to tell them first yet.  So, they got to hear it first.  My parents will hear about it next weekend, I'm sure.  Josh and Kristine, I'm not sure when we will tell them.  I should just tell Kristine on my own, but she might actually figure it out from the lack of information more than anything.  I'm thinking about just texting Kristine my due date and seeing if she doesn't just figure it out.  She will, she's smrt.   I mean, smart.

But, Betsy has been EXTREMELY generous and bought everything!   I have three new pairs of shoes, tons of clothes and 3 pairs of maternity pants and a skirt.  Since we have to dress up now for work, I'm short some clothes in that department.  I'll probably check out Kohl's again this summer too.  I'll need some stuff for fall/winter mainly.

I'm feeling ok -- I'm tired a lot and I'm forcing myself to stay up -- like I probably could have gone to bed about 7pm tonight -- but, that's ok.  Bloated -- I look pregnant already -- and slightly nauseous.  Boobs hurt. The weird part is (and sorry if this is too much to know about me) I am really constipated already.  Very weird and sucky.  

Oh, well.   Onwards and Upwards.

  1. You are right, I had guessed. I thought about texting you and asking directly but I was afraid of jinxing it again. haha! Now just waiting for that anatomy scan so I can start buying!
