Well, the time has arrived. Tomorrow will be 7 weeks. The other 2 miscarriages happened at 7.5 weeks, so I'm hoping that this next weekend will be uneventful. I know that doesn't mean smooth sailing - just that we'll be over the first hurdle.
I have started to have more symptoms in addition to the constant hunger. I definitely feel tired a lot (especially in the afternoon), so I have been trying to go to bed around 9:30-10pm. I also have a bit of the breast tenderness. The weirdest one is the "not feeling well" randomness, but I can't quite put a finger on what's actually wrong - just a general icky feeling. I also feel that my body is sometimes out of sorts, sort of like I haven't been exercising for a long time and that I'm not very limber. I try to go to the gym every day now to ride the bike for at least 30 minutes, but sometimes it's not easy to make myself go (especially since it was snowy & icy yesterday). Tonight, I don't want to drive around on the roads more than necessary (even though it's mostly dry), so I'm going to try one of my prenatal DVDs at home. I'm hoping that by doing all the exercise, I'll hold off the feeling of being super out of shape and stiff.
This Friday is another ultrasound. They want to check the fetal pole, get some measurements, and see if they can pinpoint a due date more accurately. According to the online calculators, I'm due October 21, but we'll know more on Friday.
