5 weeks

I feel different so far in this pregnancy. One thing is my nausea is after I eat instead of before, and I want to eat totally different kinds of food than I did during my other pregnancies. I'm craving full-flavored meals and not snacky things like yogurt, fruit, crackers, etc. I've been taking extra B6 which I accidentally discovered works for the nausea. I also went on this crazy cleaning spree the other day and I was able to really focus on it and was not tired at all for the entire day. Dan asked me when Kathryn was coming home! My mood has been better than normal, except that when I do get upset about something, (usually at bedtime), I cry. I also want to go to bed earlier. I've decided to wait to see an OB until 20 weeks and then get an ultrasound. I'll probably be seeing my midwife at 10 weeks or so, if I make it that far. I think it will cause less worry to just wait and see if we make it past that critical part than if I started going in for checkups and early ultrasounds like I did last time.

I see two lines!

They're positive!

I am excited. I thought I wouldn't be after the loss but I am. We decided not to wait to try again because Lily was conceived right after my first miscarriage. And who knows, maybe that just works well for us. Anyway, so far so good. I'm not worried yet. I know that I can lose this baby at any time, but I am not going to worry about it right now. We are just happy to have another chance. Dan said "Well, Ok, we'll give this one a go!" So here we go again!
