I can't believe I missed the 5 day mark yesterday. Of course it might have been because I was so nervous about flying in this hellish weather Nevada is having. I'm up visiting my dad right now in the worst snow storm they've had in awhile. Which doesn't normally bother me at all but I'm just a little nervous about putting anything in jeopardy right now. But I've none so many other mothers that flew during this time their first trimester and all seemed to be fine.
Of course I also checked with my doctor and she said it was fine to go as long as I wasn't spotting (knocking on wood) and I haven't yet...(knocking on wood again).
Which actually is part of the reason I've gone off in concern land again because quite frankly I'm not feeling nearly as much cramping and movement down there as I did last time (a good thing?). Honestly I just don't feel much of anything. During the day when I'm up and around I feel just like it would be any other non-pregnant day only if I'm really still at night do I find a few more gas bubbles and an occasionally twinge but that's pretty much it. And to top it all off my breast tenderness has been lessened. Definitely not gone but definitely not as much. Of course I've ready a million things on the Internet about how some people have this but due to the fact that this was pretty much my only pregnancy symptom beyond not getting AF it has completely freaked me out a little. I find my self doing random breast tenderness checks whenever I can and just hope I don't do one accidentally in public making people thinking I'm a complete freak. Ugh.
So that's basically the update on my end. I have two agonizing weeks until my appt. with my Ob/gyn and I'm still dutifully taking my progesterone each morning (luckily none was confiscated on my flight over (lucky for them!) Hopefully this will do the trick this time. I just still wish there was some sign that all is going well...like your belly button lighting up or something. Now that would be helpful.

Don't stress over the lack of or difference in symptoms from your last pregnancy. Each and every pregancy is different...I've learned that through my journey...and it doesn't ever mean anything towards an end result. I say all this to say....just enjoy every moment and don't worry about the little things you're feeling or not and pray and hope for the best. Best wishes to you with this little bean! Hang in there! I always hate weeks 4 to 6 the most...the drag the worst!
A belly button light sounds like the best idea!
Try and remember that every woman and every pregnancy is different and stay away from Dr. Google!
You only have 11 days to go! You'll have re-assurance in no time.
