4w2d-It's my birthday and other milestones

It's my birthday today so as a little present to myself and because I promised myself I would take a test every 2 days till 18 dpo I took another IC test.  It's still positive, and I'm feeling so good today.  That could be because it's my birthday but I just feel so positive that things are going to work out.  

For my birthday, my labmates decorated my computer with balloons and ribbons and they put up a LOL cat poster that was really cute and said something like where's da cakez.  It's nice to be remembered!  And the best birthday gift of all is knowing I'm still pregnant.  This time in September and we were having a m/c so I couldn't have asked for better news!!

4w0d- Still pregnant :)

I took an internet cheapie test and we're still pregnant.  The test was never this dark with the last pregnancy so I'm feeling a bit more positive about this pregnancy.  Of course that can change in a split second but for now I'm trying to be as positive as possible.  I know there is nothing I can do to change what will happen and I'm enjoying each day as I can in case something does happen, so this baby knows it's loved no matter what.  

Symptoms that are different from last pregnancy:  Sore boobs, sore back, headaches, lightheadedness (is that even a word), hungry all the time (though I had that with the last one), tired after work, slight nausea in the morning but nothing that would stop me from working.  I'm looking forward to some serious morning sickness once we make it past the 6 week mark.

I'll be taking another test on Tuesday and then another one on Thursday just to feel better about this and then once we make it past Wednesday I'll be phoning the doc/midwife.  Hoping to make it that far!  Baby steps (no pun intended).

We're having a baby... again!!!

It's been 2 months since the miscarriage and we just found out we're pregnant again! Being overly cautious with this one and I know I won't be feeling like celebrating until we make it past how far we made it the last time (5 days) but it's still nice to know that we are capable of getting pregnant relatively quickly.  Here's to making it past Wednesday!
