welcome lissa & deecar, congratulations ladies - How are you feeling?

@confuzed thanks for the welcome. I'm feeling good except for heartburn and some light cramps. I'm also pretty hungry especially in the morning which is weird for me because I don't normally eat breakfast. I made my first appointment with my ob for 3/20 and I can't wait! DH is super excited and I'm basically a big ball of anxiety.

lissa- you poor thing but totally normal, is this your first baby?

Yes @confuzed; how could you tell LOL?! I had a CP in January but other than that i've never been pregnant! DH has two older children so he is much more relaxed than I am! I keep taking my temp and a dip test every morning. Temps are still high and the strips are getting darker. I think i will do that until i run out of tests (which will probably get me through the weekend) because AF is officially due on Saturday. But i'm pretty sure she's not coming! I've had some pretty constant cramps since yesterday afternoon but they aren't that bad and i think that is normal (no bleeding or spotting). The heartburn is real and has been waking me up at night and my nights aren't too restful (i usually have no trouble sleeping). I just turned 41 (got my BFP on my birthday!!!) so i'm very worried about egg quality and if this pregnancy will be viable. I know we won't find out much for a couple of months so i'm just trying to take it one day at a time.

Can anyone tell me if it's safe to BD before i see the doctor in two weeks? According to apps i'm 4 weeks and 3 days today but not going in for my first doctor appointment until 6 weeks. Thanks!!!!!

@confuzed thank you, I was a bit hestitate to saying anything yet since I am so early, it has taken us so long that I am afraid that I will jinx it. but I am feeling good other than bloat and the occasional cry.

@lissa645 I want to know as well, my husband is holding out on me, he says that he feels things are soo fragile right now he wants to wait until our 6 weeks appointment. T-5 days.

My DH will have an aneurysm if we have to wait until our 6 week appointment! That's two weeks away!

Good afternoon ladies, I had my 20 week ultrasound today. Everything looked great.

What a beautiful scan Confuzed! So glad to hear great results!
