Hi everyone 
I was here with my 2010 pregnancy and just got a BFP last friday... so I will be lurking/posting but will wait a little bit before hopping on "The List"
4wks 2 days (estimating, haven't had my OB appt yet)
w/g- down 1 lb over the last few days.
s/c having a bit of trouble sleeping, don't know if its excitement/nerves or the pregnancy
other- Went in for bloodwork yesterday and I guess they will call me today with labs. I took pro with Juliet and am anxious to see if I need it so I can start it ASAP.
Thankful- With Juliet, I looked at the clock every minute or so waiting for my beta #s. This time, I care just as much, but she keeps me so busy I will go an hour or more before it even crosses my mind. So thankful for such a wonderful distraction this time around!!

Yay Becky! Good to see you over here! 
Kailah and Snowflake (trying it out, lol)
9w0d (as of Tues)
w/g - down about 5lbs
s/c - m/s, fatigue, lowered immune system. Some RLP.
other - I have been sick, sick, sick. 2.5 weeks ago I got strep (holy cow! I didn't realize how bad or serious strep was!) Then a week ago, just as I'm feeling better I got a cold that turned into a sinus infection and now it's in my lungs. I have never been this sick, and for this long. A strange thing happened though - I don't know if it's just how our bodies work, or if God was just being nice to me, but during the bad parts of my illnesses, my m/s went away! Yesterday was really the first day I've had m/s in over a week. Of course now I can't keep anything down again, but I finally was able to pick up some morning sickness comfort which helped me SO much last time. Hopefully that'll kick in in the next couple days.
next (first) mw/a next monday, finally! 5/21 I'm going to ask my m/w for a u/s, especially with how sick I've been. :x

Hi everyone! Especially Becky! Welcome!
Pam and Baby N #2
11w5d (as of Tues)
w/g - up about 4 or 5
s/c - Tired, slightly nauseous here and there, some RLP.
other - Had my US yesterday as part of my serial sequential screening. Little one was doing great, but not really cooperating so we couldn't see the body parts as well (the US tech could). We only got one good pic. But I'll take their word for it that baby looked great! I'm stressed about telling my boss. I think I'll tell her this week or early next.
d/a - next Friday for my first OB appt - saw the MW last time.
