Well, I only just took the test so my math may be a bit off but I think I'll be due in February. I am still a little surprised actually. I knew that missing my period was unusual but tomorrow I'm doing a triathlon and all last week I was so high strung about when I'd get it I thought perhaps I'd managed to wish it away. But yesterday I started feeling a familiar low-grade queasiness that didn't seem related to reace jitters and sure enough! Two lines!
What a rush of emotions! I had been feeling ready but dh and I hadn't been making a concerted effort. Now I feel excited and happy but also a little sad for dd whose life has changed and she doesn't even know it yet!
Well, I'll be back, but now I need to try to sleep well before tomorrow's race!
Congratulations! I know that feeling of being a little sad about your first baby having to share your attention with the arrival of the second...it's a hard adjustment. But worth it!
Hi Mamas!
Yup, I did a tri on Sunday and it felt great. I did slow down once during the swim because I started out too fast and didn't want to bonk in the first leg of the race and then on the bike I stopped for a few seconds to let my heart rate slow a bit but I still ended up with my best overall time ever!
Now though I can focus on being pregnant! It's good to have another project, wouldn't want life to get dull or anything!
My first pregnancy was soooooo easy. I had the mildest morning sickness, and only in the morning. This time I feel queasy pretty much all day and most of the night too.
I'm also feeling crampier than last time although I guess that's because my uterus is all excited to stretch waaaay out again!
Yesterday I went to the gym but I was really unfocused without something to train for. I don't want to lose the fitness I have from all the triathlon training but I'm so sleepy and queasy I can't think of anything that sounds inspiring.
I just hope these symptoms will wear off sooner rather than later!
Well, thanks for the welcomes mamas! I'm in for sure!
Wow!! Congratulations on your pregnancy and congratulations on your triathlon!!! I used to run long distance too; maybe I'll start again some day...good for you!!
