This is quite a big step for me to start this journal as I am the most anxious newly pregnant person ever. After an early m/c in December it has made me feel very on edge this time round.
Here is how my story begins...In May 2007 I came of BCP and I fell pregnant in December but sadly ended in early m/c. I gave myself a 3 cycle break and now on my first try I am pregnant!!!
I spent days going am I or aren't I and I didn't want to tell OH as if I were wrong I didn't want to disappoint him. I sort of new I was as I my bb's didn't waste no time in starting to get bigger!he he. I started to get tired early on in the evenings and was generally happy to laze around. After a hard days work on Saturday I decided I am going to buy a test. I went and bought a clearblue 2 test and decided when I wake up to do it. I woke up at 3:30am and decided to do it. It came up positive straight away b4 I got to turn my head. I was on my own and had no OH to hug and kiss. I saw him later that day and told him. I tried to make an appointment with my fav doctor but that isn't until next monday. I did my online prediction and I'm estimated at 4wks 5days. I can't wait until I get further along and feel more pregnant I'm actually looking forward to morning sickness. My symptoms so far are: tiredness, bigger/sore bb's, on friday got 2 moments of dizzy spells, disturbed sleep keeping waking up at 3am or so then up for an hour or so then back to sleep, back pain
and the odd twinge(don't like this). I want this baby so much I pray my bean sticks and stays with us. I'm finding eating healthy really easy so thats me. I'll prob be updating quite often as I need to get my feelings out.
Ok so today I'm 4wks and 6days. Yippeyyy I'm 5 weeks 2mrw I can't wait. No doctors appointment until Monday so I can request an early scan to put my mind at ease. I'm taking it one day at a time at the mo. Not getting twinges really maybe once a day. To calm myself down I count to 20 and it goes so that helps. All I've been feeling is extreme tiredness, back pain(suffered with this from b4) and regular hunger. I'm hungry right now and will be dashing of in a minute to eat something. I can't get much done in a day though, as after I eat lunch from that point onwards I'm very tired. Still looking forward to morning sickness as I'll feel like I've got some good pregnancy hormones if I do get it. That's all really. It's 5 sleeps until my doctors app. and 1 sleep until I'm 5weeks!
Well the day has finally come and my first doctors appointment is today! I'm 5+4 today(safely past 5wks) I'm excited and nervous don't know what they will do but I'm just looking forward to seeing my doc as she's really good a reassuring me. I'm sleeping much better the last couple nights which is good it means I'm not dwelling on things too much and just getting on with things. I still haven't got any morning sickness but thats ok plenty time for that to kick in. My only symptoms are: sore boobs ,stabbing pain in my left boob geez it hurts when that happens, get tireder quicker at work and abit hungrier on some days. To be honest I don't feel pregnant properly yet maybe it's coz I haven't seen a doctor or anything. I think maybe once I go today and the ball starts rolling it will feel more real. I'll update once I've been.......x

Well I'm back from the docs it was interesting and overwhelming. I made my request for an early scan but it can't happen so theres nothing I can do about that. All I have to do now is pick a hospital with my OH of where I would like my soon-to-be bundle of joy to be born. I have another docs appointment in 4 weeks so thats it really. She tried to reassure me things will be fine and I am feeling better at the mo more excited and it's true what she said I am further on than I got last time so thats a start. x
