Just an Update on Me
Well, I am still hanging in here!!! I have made it to and almost through my 7th week. Whew~~~
I go on the 29th for my next dr's appointment and at that time I will be 10 weeks. Hope to hear a heartbeat, and then I am sure I will be scheduled for an u/s the next week, or with luck I can get in that day or the next. I am so anxious to see that my bean is sticking and growing and all of the above. I couldn't get in to see my fam dr to get anything scheduled sooner, just being patient (extremely hard) and hoping that all things good will come out of being patient and waiting. I have noticed some things are different this time. Boobies are still sore and seem to be getting sorer by the day, today I flung my backpack out of the truck and it nailed me square in the right boob and I nearly fell over from the pain..... Today I believe I had my first real bought of nausea, I tend to get nausea when I first wake up or wake enough to change positions, but it goes just as fast. BUT today all through my bus run (200pm-500pm) I felt like I wanted to PUKE. Still feel queasy but not as bad. I rolled flat on my stomach last night in my sleep and quickly jumped back to my side as I felt a really uncomfortable pain but once I moved on to my side it was gone....so sad the tummy time is done...LOL Constipation is still there but the apple juice is like a miracle, if I drink it I go once daily and without much forcing,with out it I struggle badly. Other than that I am taking things one day at a time, wishing for more symptoms and praying daily that my baby is doing wonderfully and growing and is HAPPY all nestled inside me.
Hope everyone else is doing good as well. Glad to see everyone's updates and progress.

Sounds like things are progressing well. Just hang in there and stay positive.
Also, don't be freaked out if you don't hear a heartbeat at 10 weeks. That's still pretty early to get it on doppler, especially if you have some belly fat or excess skin still hanging around. They couldn't get a heartbeat on me at 11w1d.
Keep taking that Metformin!

The doc told me to stop the metformin, I didn't want to but I followed his orders. Hopefully things will still turn out for the best. Hubby actually hid them from me so I wouldn't be tempted to continue taking them.....LOL
I know that I probably won't be able to hear the HB as I do have quite the apron and well just plain flab, but if I pull the flab up and they put the doppler right on the pelvic area, I may get a chance.....LOL
