Jessica's Diary EntriesDiary Navigation: |
January 18, 2000
Well, I can safely say this has been a good week! AF never showed when
she was supposed to so I took a test and got a REALLY faint positive
yesterday, but it took about an hour to show! Then today I retested and
it showed rather quickly. Still faint, but DEFINITELY there! I had it
confirmed at the doctor this afternoon and it came up very quick and a
strong positive. I'm pregnant!!!
I'm cautiously optimistic about it time because I feel nothing like I did the other times I was pregnant. I had implantation spotting at about 7 dpo and nausea now. No cravings, nothing. My nipples are ever so slightly sore. I'm nervous, though, because I am cramping some. It feels like a dull ache, know what I mean? But it goes away if I lay down. Don has ordered me to bed rest for the next 2 weeks. I'm definitely resting most of the time until after my first prenatal appointment, which is next week. But I think maybe we have a keeper!
I'll hang around here until after my first prenatal and then I'll start the pregnancy diary. Thank you all so much for the support you've given me. We're so excited to finally be starting our family. I hope all the other diary writers can join me soon! ++++++++ vibes to everyone!!!
