Morning Sickness

Morning sickness has officially reared its ugly head. For the last 2 weeks or so, whenever I tried to go to sleep I got a little sick and it took me anywhere from 2 to five hours to finally fall asleep. But, once I was asleep I was fine. I could wake up in the middle of the night to pee and go back to sleep no problem. I could sleep in the middle of the day like a champ. Then Sunday came. I felt sick on and off all day, I didn’t actually hurl but I kept feeling like I was going to, and (TMI) I kept throwing up a little in my mouth. Then night came and all hell broke loose. The last two nights I haven’t been able to fall asleep at night, when I do finally fall asleep, then wake up to pee, I feel sick again and the whole process starts again. I also can’t sleep during the day. The only interesting thing is I have the most vivid dreams, I told my husband that we need to figure out how to get inside my head to get them out clearly, I think we have a few books or movies up there. Problem is that with dreams, when you try to explain them after the fact, they never really make sense. He thinks I’m a little nuts. Hopefully only 3 more weeks of this. It’s only suppose to last until week 12 right?

7 weeks 6 days

7 weeks 6 days, you can't see how long tand strange the swirly things are on the end but you can definetly see a change in my utuerus.  Hopefully it will continue to grow and stretch!

6 weeks 3 days

Ok, that wasn't actually that hard.  Here is the 6 week 3 day picture.

8 Weeks Pregnant

I've been too scared and too tired to write a real blog but as of yesterday we are at 8 weeks. I had some brown spotting and was put on bedrest for 10 days but now I'm back at it, kind of. All I really want to do is sleep but that will have to wait a little longer.

I would post the ultrasound pictures but I have no idea how and don't have the energy to figure it out. The 6 week picture was crazy! it looked like a banana with a chickpea in the middle, touching both sides of my uterus. My unicorn uterus is definitely strange. The 8 week picture was a little better. It stretched out quite a bit and the baby wasn't touching both sides but it did look like a ball with two thin swirls coming from both sides. Hopefully I'll post pictures soon.

Congrats to all the others out there who also had a sucessful IVF. Looks like there are a few of us:)
