I have since stopped testing. LOL. I have not. My nipples stopped being super sore for the first time since I got my first positive and I had some cramps. Panicked and tested just now when I got home from work. Of course my test line was significantly darker than the control and now I feel crazy and ridiculous, but I'm just feeling so negative about this whole pregnancy. I'm struggling to be excited and I'm desperately waiting for my first ultrasound. I'm crazy person style still burning through a cheapie every few days. I need to give them away so I'll stop, but I keep thinking that if this doesn't stick I'll need them again anyways. Sigh.

Well I guess my concerns are unwarranted. I got my first rough wave of dry heaves tonight. There it is, definitely pregnant and progressing. Oof.

Nothing too crazy yet. But I think my worst is always after 8 weeks actually. I do think eating well and being active everyday is helping.

I wake up a bit queasy every day but if I workout right away I feel better, and fine longer. I need to stay on top of being active and hydrated because it seems to be helping.

cnf I'm sorry you're struggling emotionally. Hugs ♥️ I haven't been around for a few days because I've been so sick I can barely function. I ended up telling my boss even though it's super early because I didn't want her to think I was slacking. I'm sure she's thrilled my due date is the day before the next school year starts. If you guys say it helps I'll have to try exercise for some relief. I'm struggling.

Now just to drag my butt to actually do it... That's for sure the hardest part. I'm so exhausted that it's really a mental thing to get going.

I couldn't even get through a full cup of coffee this morning 🤢 All my sympathies. This is my first pregnancy where coffee doesn't completely turn my stomach even at the thought of it. I'm grateful too because I don't remember being this brutally exhausted previously.

I'm grateful too because I don't remember being this brutally exhausted previously. I am completely off coffee now. And I was 3 cups a day of strong coffee. Even the smell of it is too much for me now.

My morning sickness has hit HARD. I took a promethazine last night and slept 11 hours. I'm still tired and sick today. Ugh.

I've been spotting on and off now for about a week. Sometimes more than others, but never much more than what gets wiped off on the toilet paper. I'm really thinking that it's just my cervix but I guess we'll see *shrug*

Anyone else having period like cramps? Cramps, occasional nausea, and sore boobs are my main symptoms.

Nausea is out of control and the dry heaves and hacking have settled in. Every time we're not in the same room and I make a noise H asks if I'm puking 🙄

I've been puking and miserable the last two days so I called my OB to see if there was anything I could try. They told me B6 + unisom. I had my first dose today at lunch. Luckily I'm home with a duck kiddo because then I slept two hours with her afterwards. It knocked me out!
Anybody else used this? Does your body get more used to the unisom? They said to take it 4 times a day, I'm worried I would just want to sleep 24/7.

If call for clarification since unisom is a sleep aid.

fem I take diclectin, which is a combo pill of the 2 that is available here. I took it with DS and my last pregnancy as well and definitely found that while it made me a little loopy, it didn't put me to sleep. However, I only take it "as needed" so that may be the difference.

fem the B6-unisom combo made me sleepy but still very much barfy with DD, so I ended up needing to ask for something stronger. Also hi. This is me dipping a toe in with my 10/2/20 EDD if this one sticks. My boobs have been killing me for 2 weeks. I’m exhausted as all get out (doesn’t help that DD has been sick and keeping me up half the night). And everything is smelly.

I'm having another no symptoms day and it's freaking me out. I hate this. I'm like horribly sick for 3-4 days, then have a day or two with nothing and it spikes my anxiety. Trying to keep it together today. Trying to tell myself I don't need to burn a test when I get home.

I am SO tired, and so sore, and so emotional, and my belly won't stop pulling. I feel like since I'm on the progesterone that it's just cranked every symptom up. Today I literally almost walked out of work because I couldn't handle it.
