My morning sickness always kicked in during the 5th week. I'm hoping it hits soon. I didn't have any with my miscarriages. 

Well, I had my midwife appointment today. I had an ultrasound and it looks like I'm only 5 weeks 1 day. My first reaction was that is a bad thing and the baby isn't growing, but I do think I ovulated late and this could explain why it...

I am very wary of them and declined several with my second child when they were offered. After 2 miscarriages though I don't think I could say no to a scan sometime soon. I never got to see or hear a heartbeat with the 2 I lost and I...

Mine are getting very snug and I'm only 6 weeks. My in-laws come soon and I know my mother-in-law thinks it's ridiculous that I could be showing so early so I'm not really looking forward to telling them I am pregnant. 

We have a pattern with our girls. Anika Mae and Emily Margarete. 3 syllable first names and Mae is my great grandma's middle name and Margarete is my husband's Oma's middle name. So the best name to fit the pattern would be Isabel...

I wish I was cold. I think summer might never end here in New Mexico.

I'm going to wait awhile to tell my kids. It was really hard to explain miscarriage to a 4 year old the first time I had a loss so I kept the next pregnancy from them and lost that one too. We'll wait as long as we can this time. 

I have an appointment on the 30th. It's probably just a meet the midwife and fill out paperwork sort of thing, but I'm hoping they will check my progesterone as well. 

Missing the whole first trimester would be wonderful. I'm a bit jealous of women who don't know they are pregnant until midway through the pregnancy.

That's great :)
