What I hate most about pregnancy is that you can't see what exactly is going on in there at all times. I promised myself I wouldn't worry like I did last time. Yeah, that lasted 5 days. Of course I have different symptoms this time so it's not like I can even compare (not like you ever really can compare pregnancies because I know they are all different in some way).
Gah! thanks for letting me vent. I know that if something happens there's nothing I can do about it anyway, but I hate this not knowing business.
FWIW, I pretty much did the same thing. At first I was so proud of myself for being so much more chill (and that's still true, but it's not saying much because I was kind of insane the first time), and then I started to worry about feeling GOOD of all things. I remember how much I used to get annoyed by the people who would whine that they didn't have any morning sickness, and I couldn't understand how they wouldn't just consider themselves lucky. And then I started to do it, too. WTH.
And it's also not really your fault because time freezes between the moment you get your BFP and your first ultrasound. Slowest weeks. EVER.
Yes the beginning is the hardest part. How are you feeling?
I am mostly tired and bloated. OMG, the bloat! I didn't have this with Zoe. I get what I call "stretchy pains" and I feel them on my c section scar too, which I hate. No nausea, and no aversion to meat. I am actually finding myslef very hungry. Last time I lost 10lbs in the first month because I was a little nauseous and just didn't feel like eating. My 1st appt is Aug 13th, which is 2 weeks sooner than with Zoe.

Yes, time is at a stand still! I hate the waiting from month to month. I hate the first tri! I didn't have crazy symptoms with Zoe either and some days I didn't feel pg either. This just sucks. I have been burping a lot, too, lol!

I was waaaaaay more located this time. I was also showing much much earlier. Not really sick, no crazy food aversions. I hated meat with K and I ate like crazy this time. Pregnancies are so different! I hope the next few weeks fly by!
