Hello everyone. I'm not sure how far along I am because each time I calculate it, it comes out differently, but I'm pretty sure I'm right at 6 weeks. This is my first child, and I've been worried to death. I think my HCG levels are fine and rising steadily although I haven't had any tests done but because of the way the lines com out darker and faster on PT's, I've had 4 of them done, 3 at home and one at a clinic. My first OB appt isn't until the 3rd of December but it's so hard having to wait that long to find out if everything is alright. I was having some pretty bad cramps last week so I went to the ER and they wouldn't even let me go back, they just kept saying it was completely normal and to go home and get some rest. I've had no bleeding (thank God) and my cramps have pretty much gone away completely except for a few very minor ones here and there that I'm pretty sure is due to my uterus stretching. My husband and I have already told everyone the good news, which we probably shouldn't have done but we're just so happy and excited that we couldn't contain ourselves - I've been told numerous times that I wouldn't be able to conceive. Here lately, like, the past 2 days I've been feeling weird....my body temp has been higher, I've been nauseas but I've never gotten sick, I've been hungry constantly, really tired, my boobs are killing me....I know that these symptoms all come with being pregnant but last week and the week before they were a lot more noticable to me. Did this ever happen to any of you? For those of you that's had to wait, what did you do to keep from going insane?
