--Morning sickness seems to be completely gone, as of the last four days.
--Not constantly tired now.
--Not hungry 24/7.
--Belly 'popped' out a little three days ago. It used to be big only after I ate. Now it's protruding all the time. (I'm 5'8.5" and about 126 lbs, so it's pretty easy for me to show, I guess.)

Does this sound like my mid-March period was implantation bleeding and I am really due in November?

I'm not sure what to think. I had just started a new job March first, so I was all distracted and noted neither my period start date or length. I seem to recall it being a little shorter and lighter than normal. (It's already short and light.)

I guess I'm still voting Dec, but am not at all sure now. :confused:

Thoughts?

Not necessarily. Everyone is different. My belly popped out around 9 weeks, and I only briefly had m/s, between weeks 6 and 8, and it was very mild. My tiredness was rather mild too, and I find that when I have things distracting me I don't notice it so much. Your practitioner should be able to give you an estimate based on the size of your uterus I think, or could send you for an US if you're not opposed and want a more accurate date.

YAY!!!! You are blessed! that is so exciting that those symptoms are gone! I am a little more than 9 weeks right now, and I can feel my uterus, where it has come up out of the pelvis....it's different with everyone...

Just wanted to say that I thought mine was gone. It left for a full 4-5 days. Just when I accepted and celebrated, it returned, not as bad as it's hight (at least not yet), but back with the low energy, crankiness and all. So don't get too worried just yet.

Oh, and I popped way back at 4-5 weeks and have been randonly since, so it's all OK!

I announed to amused office mates two weeks ago that I thought my morning sickness was gone ... they assured me I was just having a good day! They were right! In fact, I traded in the constant seasick feeling and exhaustion for a much easier to handle (for me) sudden and violent illness every once in a while. I haven't been sick now for 2 days, and my energy level and appetite seem to be back. But I'm not celebrating yet!

I keep reading the "pregnancy week by week" books and they ALL say that I "shouldn't" be showing yet. Well, around week 6 I popped out and none of my pants fit anymore. I outgrew my bras within a month! It all seems to have levelled out now (I'm just about 10 weeks) and I haven't gained any weight for a couple of weeks -- but I can definitely see the little one -- we call it Zy-the-Goat, or Zy for short.

I notice that on days that I begin with a solid yoga practice, I'm not as sick or puffy. I also notice that even if my tummy seems normal size in the morning, its paunchy by evening. Is this water retention??

So glad to have moms-to-be and moms to talk to -- all of my friends had their children ages ago, and I don't live near my family. So, thanks for just being here, everyone.
