I'm pregnant! It's very early, just 4 weeks today. I didn't think it would happen this quickly, but I guess I got really good at OPKs TTC DD2, because our timing worked out this cycle. I had a v v faint line at 10 dpo (I thought I was seeing things, but hopeful), and then confirmed the next day. I'm nervous because it's still really early, because of covid, because we will be outnumbered, and because as I have described here recently, my last pregnancy absolutely sucked ass and it took me a while to be in a place mentally and physically where I felt like I could take on another one. But I am also really excited, and H is, too. I am really hoping that the intense nausea waits until at least the day after Thanksgiving. Because this embryo would be very rude to start before then. I have a very limited amount of time before I start turning into a hot trash bag full of garbage, and I am doing my best to enjoy that time. I am not excited to feel like shit at work while also trying to cover up that I am pregnant, and the news will likely have to come out as early as it did last time (7-8) weeks when I become nonfunctional. I already ordered Unisom and B6 to try to head it off as well as I can when it starts. I wouldn't normally tell IRL people so early, but since we are seeing my parents this weekend and my sister and her family next week, I plan to tell them. They will absolutely suspect something when I am not drinking wine at Thanksgiving- lol. And my MIL, who has requested that if we conceive a third, we notify her that I am "toting a baby" a la Angela from 90 Day Fiance (yes, we are trash people who watch trash TV). We will tell the kids later on, but I already ordered these:

Also, if you start to feel really bad call and get zofran. There is also a patch I used too that helped. Hopefully this one is magical and you don't feel like hot garbage

Yessss! This is wonderful news. So a July baby then? Congratulations!!! Yes! I estimate July 25, although if the doc office goes by last period (ETA last period, not LMP... I think this is how my office did it last time, I can't remember) they will probably say July 20th. It will be our first/only summer baby. We are three and DONE, btw. lol.

I ordered sea bands, but I may need that patch. I took Diclegis for the two rounds my insurance would cover last time (the unisom and B6 should be similar to this, I think?), and then switched to Zofran. Zofran worked to keep the nausea down, but woof, the constipation was almost worse. I really do hope this one is different!

Obviously your baby will wait until after July 21 so s/he can be part of the 2021 Leo Extravaganza! I had this thought, haha. I haven't gone longer than 39 weeks, so we will see. If they're a Leo, they come with an automatic requirement to go HARD for their birthday, right?
