I feel lucky

to have sore boobs, to feel nauseous all.day.long., to hate the smell of pretty much every food, and to want to sleep all the time. Lucky, very, very lucky. I couldn't believe my high beta number and the first thing I thought was omg, did the embie split? Guess my dr. had the thought too! DH went with me to see the first sono. The sac is measuring right where it should and there is just one. Next week I will go back to see if we can see a heart beat. I am happy for now but I'm sure mid-week I'll get nervous again. All we can do is hope for the best:)

I'm still on limited activity b/c my right ovary is still enlarged. Its been a month now since I've done any sort of activity b/c with in a few days of stiming I was sore. If all goes well I think I get to call this an 11 mo. pregnancy! Really it has been over a month since I've felt "well". But again, I feel lucky to say that.

So my nausea is more or less food aversion, I'm hungry but *everything* sounds so gross! Especially chicken! I actually find more flavorful food sit with me better. Bland chicken, yuck! Shrimp with spicy cocktail sauce, yum! I also have been loving garden salads...odd when you spend most of the day feeling sick but I guess its healthy. What is sad is chocolate is on my aversion list right now and I'm a HUGE chocolate lover!

I should also say I feel lucky to have such a great husband! He has been the best support for me and has taken great care of me through all of this. and the poor thing has gotten any sex since November! It was funny, I asked the RE when I could start doing some light walking/working out. When she say not yet and we could talk about it again next week I knew that included sex. DH had to ask:) Again, we can talk about it again next week.

I know what you mean... so happy for pregnancy symptoms (even if you feel really yucky half the time)! So happy for you!
