Ladies, I hope everyone has had a great weekend. We had gorgeous weather, but I've been stuck inside with this darn flu or cold or whatever the heck it is. I broke the high fever early Saturday, but now I'm running a low grade one again. Struggling not to be nervous and anxious. If I let fear overtake me, all I can think about is that this is my 16th week and this fever is going to be what kills the baby!

So I bet you can all guess I'm doing a lot of praying over here! And I'm treasuring every little thump, bump, and roll I feel, without trying to stress over the times I don't feel much.

I'll be so glad when I start feeling better, and to have my next appt on Friday.

Morning ladies! Must have been a very busy weekend for all! I know it was for me!

@miracle-I have the craziest dreams too. I always wonder how much they will change when I get pregnant. I swear I could write a book on them! How are you feeling today?

@rebecca-I just know you are not going to have any issues with this pregnancy. Baby is just fine and healthy. A lot of women have low grade fevers during pregnancy. Try not to stress about what is going to happen, because I just know only good will come from this pregnancy!

How is everyone else doing??

I am 12dpo today. I had the busiest weekend I have had in a long time. I think we were home for maybe four hours, aside from sleeping of course. We helped our friends move yesterday and had lots of stuff going on Saturday. Last night we got home around ten p.m. I took a shower and felt SO SICK. I had kind of felt a little nauseous during the evening when I sat down, but that was it. I think the hot and steam of the shower set me over. I was so sick. I got out of the shower and DH found me wrapped around the toilet :( I didn't throw up then, and got myself to bed. But about ten minutes later i was throwing up. I do not know if it was food related or what. I have never once thrown up from food. Of course DH is saying....hey babe, maybe this is a good thing. I don't know though. I really hope it is something good, but I just don't know.

Don't have time for a whole post at the moment, just wanted to pop in real quick and say...

@rebecca - I hope you and baby make it safely through this sickness! Try not to worry.

@LSchrader - Oh boy, I surely do hope it's a "good thing" and not just something you ate!

Ugh! My temps have been much higher than my first cycle temping! It's been between 97.83-97.87. I WAS sick, but not anymore and the environment hasn't changed!!??

I checked my cervix today for the first time in a while, it's high, closed, and the hardest I've ever felt it.

I just don't understand what's going on! Could it be a bad thing that my pre-o temps are so high?

@skyline-I hope so. I have never been one to get sick like that. I can honestly say, the only times I have ever thrown up were from being hung over or a migraine. This time, it was neither. I just think it's weird that I don't feel sick now.

@football-I really do not think it matters how your temps are, as long as you see a shift. I had months that were higher and lower. My temps were always in the 97's before O and then once I would O they would shoot up to 98's. I really really think you are just fine. What CD are you?

Today is CD11 and before the CP O-day would usually be CD15. Last month everything was delayed by two days though.

I think you are just fine then. You will probably get your temp drop before you O and then you will spike. Your temps will not be the same every month!

Thanks, @L! I'm also thinking maybe the CP changed my temp range or something. They say pregnancy can alter your cycle so who knows. As long as I get a shift!!!!!! :/

@football-exactly! Just as long as you get your shift you are totally fine!! My last month of temping, I had super low temps, but i still got my shift.

I really hope this is it guys. I have no clue why I would have been so sick last night...DH just emailed me and said last night was the first night he was happy to see me throwing up haha :) But what I don't get is why would it just go away? I don't know if that is normal for either MS or if it were food related. yep, i know I am over thinking it :)

I wasn't pregnant for long, but the week I was, I felt nausea on and off. One minute I'd feel like throwing up, then the next I was totally fine.

I really, really hope this is it for you, too! When are you going to test?
