So you are or you arent?
My test was a +sign or a -sign.

When I was pregnant I took like 5 tests, 6 if you count the one at the doctors office. First I bought a 2-pack and the first one i took was positive. I took the second one the next morning just to confirm, you know what the hell, they give you an extra in the package. It was negative. WTF is going on here, am I or am I not? So I go buy another one, just a single test in the package cuz I'm like well that's all I'm gonna need right? It was a plus or minus sign like someone previously mentioned. I took it and all I got was a vertical line. What the hell does that mean?! My hubby was like,"Why don't you call the hotline?" No way, they'll think I'm some kind of retard because I can't read a simple test. I finally went out and got a digital read-out test in a 2-pack. Both came up positive. Whew!

That would have driven me crazy! When I took my test, it was 1 line = not pregnant, and 2 lines = pregnant... So they tell you to pee on the stick, and then wait 3 minutes for the line or lines to show up. I did my thing...and looked at the stick and BAM! 2 lines! It didn't even allow me the three minutes of agonizing over the results...lol! At the time it was a big shocker; my fiance and I were just beginning to plan a wedding for this spring! Needless to say, we changed our plans and got married a little earlier... and now we're anxiously awaiting something even more exciting than a wedding!

same to you. How are you feeling? My wife lately couldn't get comfortable anywhere, and her back hurts from the inevitable weight gain. I introduced her to my recliner, and told her she should sleep in it, see if it helps. (I bought it specifically to sleep in post neck surgery, and slept in it exclusively for 4-5 months) I think I'll have our bed to myself for a while now. Going by due dates, she's about 6 weeks ahead of you, so if you have any questions, let us know

Where did you get a PJ onesie?

genevieve

Yeah I want one too. I can find other bands...

Im doing well. Getting bigger but not huge. Im carrying very compactly.
My back and hips get very sore though so since Im a dog groomer and
have to stand all day I only go in to work one day a week now.

I had a very easy go of things so far. No morning sickness at all.
People keep asking me how I am in a manner that suggests they want
gory details, but alas... I have nothing to offer them.

You guys must be getting excited though!
Everything ready?

Yeah, everyone wants to tell you horror stories about morning sickness, and it's as though they want to hear your horror stories as well...but I always disappoint people when I tell them I barely had it. I was mostly just a little tired in the second and third month...that's all. I sometimes think people don't even believe me!

Fighting Hellfish

Definately getting excited. Ready? I don't know if we'll ever be ready. But her shower was this past saturday, so we have a ton of stuff now. The nursery is all set up, we just have to put the sheets on the crib, and the bumpers and all that jazz. you sound very similar to my wife. When people realize she's pregnant, they think she's 4-5 months along, but she's about 8 1/2. She also had absolutely no morning sickness. My theory is that's how it has to be with first, or else there won't be a second. Funny story, not PJ related, but I still hang out with a softball team I used to play for. as of season end, last November, of the 12 regulars 7 were either expecting, or had babies within the last 2 months

Yeah, they look at sideways.
I am loving the fact that my sister went through hell and it really bothers her that Im doing fine. Shes quite nasty.
She weighs about 100lbs and is tiny.
Im 5'9" and weigh 160lbs.
She told me I probably wasnt showing cause Im "heavier" and "heavier" people some times dont show at all.
Like Im some 500lb behemoth.
Almost punched her.

Yeah I know tons of people too. I thought maybe it was cause its that age group but I also know a teenager that had a baby this year.

We have the room painted but are waiting to buy our furniture till we rip up tha carpeting and install the laminate we bought.
Of course the year we plan to do house renos we find out we're prego! Go figure.
