Geez- not only do we fall asleep at work but at concerts too! When will the exhaustion end? Ha Ha. Fortunately, I was told it only last the 1st trimester so we only have a few more weeks to go!!
Gennessa- I spoke to my nurse today and she told me that the cramps are completely normal. The cramps are caused by our uteris growing and stretching. She also said that it is common for them to last alll day long but we usually dont notice them in the day because we are busy moving around. But at night when we are trying to sleep they can keep us awake. So I wouldnt worry about it. My nurse suggested taking tylenol or making a cup of tea because it will relax the muscles. So give that a shot.
As for going on a boat...I would. I dont see anything wrong with it! Enjoy.

HAPPY FRIDAY TO ALL!!

Thank Cooking for the notes makes me feel better. Today is not a good one though I just plan feel like poo. I am sure it has to do with my boss and work being a bit stressfull today.

Unexplained sorry to here you missed the concert but hey you got the rest you needed. HAHA I guess being pregant is simlar to being a grandpa.... My grandpa would fall alseep at every play we went to and I asked him one time why he would go and pay and he said well needs a good rest everyone and then.

And my grandma would not interput him at the play beacuse she was busy watching it.

Hello again.

My boss caught me sleeping at my desk yesterday. Today (just now) she asked me: "aren't you pregnant?"
I must have had a pretty stupid face and started BS'ing "i dont know"
How stupid is that? How can you NOT know?
I am angry at myself now that I lied and that I made up such a stupid answer. I will probably have to tell her next week

and I am not super happy about it.

DNT - I am so sorry for your loss. There are no words that can help just know that you have support here. Take care of yourself.

Unexplained - Hee Hee, I know it shouldn't be funny but the visual of you snoozing on your desk and getting caught twice makes me smile. Sounds like an Office episode.

Gennessa - Is it a motor boat? I am sure it would be fine as long as you weren't drifting. If it is a sail boat, well, doesn't sound fun to me. Just the thought of it makes me more queasy.

I am glad to read all the posting about cramps. I had them last night after working way too much yesterday and it scared the crap out of me. I was looking through all my books trying to decide if I was miscarrying (so morbid). Some woman have cramps all the way through. As long as they are not excruciating and last more than 24 hours, or there is no heavy bleeding, they say not to worry. I have a feeling this constant worrying about my babes is just going to continue the rest of my life

Have a great weekend!

Neffi -- I'm sure you remember me from the Dec/Jan thread. I was elated when I saw that you finally got your BFP!!! Baby and I are doing well and believe it or not she'll be her in 11 more weeks. I am due the middle of Sept.

Rest, relax and enjoy. My advise to everyone is to rest as much as you can to avoid any mishaps. I rest as much as I can and it's paying off.

I'm on the Sept 2008 thread now if you ever wanna ask a question of me.

Good luck to all of you girls here.

I am an originally dec/jan thread buddy along with washintonda. Congrats to both Neffi and Unexplained. I remember you both from our original thread and I am so happy to see you on this side of the boards!

I am also hanging out on the sept 08 boards with washingtonda. I am due Sept 1, also only 11 weeks to go.

If you guys have any questions for us, just pop in on our thread!

Neffi- welcome to the pregnant thread

the u/s with heartbeat is the most amazing experience so far. I am sure you will appreciate it.

CT-Michelle- Thanks for congrats! How are you? 11 weeks left? time goes by fast.

Have a good weekend, ladies. I am going to a baby shower today, and for the first time it feels good to go to a baby-pregnancy dungeon

Neffi-Congrats to you! I was with you on the May/June cycle buddies thread...welcome, and we can't wait to hear your great news when you to to U/S. I can't wait til Thurs for us here!

Thanks to everyone! I was just wondering when you ladies started having side effects? And what they were? I am not even considered 5 weeks yet, so I know I shouldn't be feeling too much, but LB I know you are really sick....when did that start?

Leigh31 · Post by **Leigh31** » Sat Jun 21, 2008 8:13 pm

Welcome, Neffi! I am 5 weeks as well, and I have had very few symptoms. I had slight cramping in the very beginning, around the time of my 1st beta. Since then, there have been a couple of days when I have been tired, but today I actually feel pretty energetic. I am thankful for not feeling sick, but, of course, nervous that I'm not having very many symptoms! How about you?[/b]

Neffi211 · Post by **Neffi211** » Sun Jun 22, 2008 12:46 am

Leigh31-- I am a little nervous as well, but I always try to tell myself that if someone else told me they were under 5 weeks with no symptoms I would say that is normal, so I am giving myslef advice! When was your transfer???

Rubylee · Post by **Rubylee** » Sun Jun 22, 2008 1:11 am

Neffi - I was just tired off and on until last weekend (week 6) and then started getting MS. I had cramping at first, then nothing, and now they are back, which has been unsettling for me. I don't think anything that happens where symptoms are concerned will ease our minds! Not until we hold our little bundles in our arms. (Then starts a whole other type of worry

. But bring it on!!)
