Hey all. I KNOW i'm pregnant. I felt it the moment that it happened, I have every indication and am so excited. Although, I can not stop literally counting the days and hours that I am pregnant. Like I know today I am three weeks and four days pregnant and feel like a complete idiot that I know that. Its gonna be a LOOOOOOOONG nine months if this keeps up. Its all that I think about. Oh and another thing, is anyone else feeling bigger in the belly already?

Is it baby or Thanksgiving dinner still?

I know what you're saying!
've been counting the days since I found out too... it seems to be going sooo slowly! I'm just keeping in mind that I should enjoy this time and remember it well- no reason to rush.
I don't think it's really possible to be showing at this point...I do feel a little heavy around the middle. Mostly bloated and like my bladder is full all the time. And I didn't have a Thanksgiving dinner so that's not the culprit!

I did that with my first and with my second I had a hard time remembering what week I was in. I wait anxiously for this 1st trimester to be over with, so I find myself counting a lot.

I have noticed my pants getting tighter already and my friend who is on #3 is 8 weeks along and visibly has a pooch already.

I was soo like that with my first too! I had a lilypie ticker on my desk top and had to remove it because it was making me crazy....
surfing the web for all the info I could stuff into my brain...lol
9 months seemed rediculously loooong...
not this time though...I am going to enjoy the full 9 months

-maybe it is because I know at the end of the 9 months I will have my hands full...lol

I could say try to relax and enjoy it, but everyone has to go through it...I was dying to see who was sticking their arse in my ribs...lol

I agree with that. Its like I'm ready RIGHT NOW and can't wait for any doubts for a second kiddo if I have the baby today. I am excited but scared for the double duty.

I am so glad that other mommas out there are having similar feelings. Today is a month preggo for me and I swear that I have lost a notch on my belt already. I am not eating more I swear
Could me being a VBAC have anything to do with it?

You may not look pregnant at this point but your embryo's heart, no bigger than a poppyseed, has already begun to beat and pump blood. The heart is dividing into chambers and will find a more regular rhythm soon. The embryo itself is about a quarter of an inch/ half a centimetre long and looks more like a tadpole than a human. It undergoes a growth spurt this week.

Major organs, including the kidneys and liver, begin to grow. The neural tube, which connects the brain and spinal cord, will close this week. The embryo's upper and lower limb buds begin to sprout -- these will form your baby's arms and legs. The intestines are developing and the appendix is in place.

Below the opening that will later form your baby's mouth, small folds exist where the neck and the lower jaw eventually develop. As early as this week, facial features are already forming. Nostrils are becoming distinct and the earliest version of the eyes' retinas are forming. Find out how much folic acid you need.
I am in 3rd week of my pregnancy..thankyou God

Actually, lol you COULD be showing! I went to the ER on Sunday with spotting and pain (I am in danger of ectopic due to a blocked tube). I hadan ultarsound and everything was fine, but during my internal, the Dr told me my uterus is tipped forwards. Rather than growing up it grows out. I was in maternity at 5 weeks with DD and I already need it with this LO...

Excitement COULD be it, but sometimes its not ALL in your head!! LOL

Anyway, but YAY US!!!!

I feel like everyone can tell and everyone knows! I'm already about 40 pounds overweight, so my tummy stuck out to begin with. I've also been told that I have a tilted uterus so that might be part of it.... or maybe it is all in my hormone enraged mind!

I'm having the exact opposite problem. I'm so symptom free that I forget I'm pregnant sometimes. No nausea, no tiredness, no dip or increase in appetite, no cravings and no weight gain or even bloating yet. I did have a bit of breast tenderness last week but its gone this week. I'm going to try to not worry and enjoy it while it lasts.

This thread makes me smile. For some reason I "show" super early too, I guess I just get extra bloated. I swear I'm sporting a tiny bump already, it wasn't there last week!
