this new journey is so nerve wracking!

(4 weeks, 0 days)

i've done one urine test to confirm the pregnancy for my doc, but it came back as a 'weak' positive (probably because it was at least the 3rd pee of the day). so now i have to pick up another requisition form from the clinic to go back to the lab to do the test again tomoro (i did the first one yesterday). in the meantime, i'm still getting positive results on the internet cheapies, so that's good. i'm also officially late (which seemed like it was going to take forever to happen, lol). so this time, i'm going to make an appt with the lab and go a lot earlier in the day so hopefully the hormones are much more concentrated and it comes back a strong positive and i can then book my first pre-natal appt!

otherwise, still nothing really new. not much in the way of symptoms other than feeling ready for bed an hour and a half earlier, i'm starving every 3 hours and i'm now waking up in the middle of the night. last night was the first time i had to get up to use the bathroom in the middle of the night, the other nights i just randomly woke up... so i guess that's how it starts, lol. i will probably never enjoy a full night's sleep ever again for the next 10 years  :P

otherwise, i'm feeling good. wishing i could get out walking more, but i've been so busy studying so i can finish my latest course before the deadline that i haven't been able to get out except on weekends. at least once this course is done, i can take it a bit more easily on the studying front and keep up with my walk/jogging so that i stay fit and healthy. i'm just glad my doc has given me to the go ahead to continue jogging as long as i can keep up a conversation (which was actually a lot easier than i thought it would be!).

here's to a very happy and healthy 9 months!!!
