Week 5 summary: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔘 Took another FRER which was a dye stealer at 20dpo/5+1. And then a CB digital with weeks indicator and got the coveted 3+ on it! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔘 Farmers had their 50% off nursery gear over last weekend, so we went had a sneaky look at what they have available. I thought I would be the picky one but I was wrong! And then he panicked as he thought the 50% sale happens rarely and he started wondering if we had to buy this weekend but was able to calm him down and say these sales come around 3-4 times a year. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔘 We’ve set when we are going to tell our families. Hubby has used the excuse for an early birthday dinner for me (as we will be overseas for it) to tell his family at pretty much 12w. Then we will be up visiting my family en route to going overseas a couple days later so will tell them then. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔘 I had my first baby dream whilst pregnant. We had a big chunky healthy baby girl at 8 pounds something. But it felt like I was looking at her for the first time when she was in the hospital cot so maybe I’d had a c-section with general? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔘 Told the second person in ‘real-life’ about our news! (One of my bestie who I’m visiting for a few days) ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔘 Hubby unexpectedly bought our first bag of nappies while I have been away 😍. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Week 5 symptoms: ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔘 Tiredness is my main symptom still- getting tired by mid-afternoon. I even fell asleep during the last 2 tracks on the mat at my barre class once! 🔘 Tightening sensation around my lower abdomen on and off, but more noticeable when walking. Also some minor sharp sensations even lower down around pubic bone from time to time. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔘 I’m unsure if the minor background nausea here and there is in my head or not. But I’ve started having a piece of toast in the morning before I leave for work around 7.30 instead of waiting until I settle in at work to my usual breakfast at 8.30 (which I have as well but after 9 now). I felt more nauseous on the morning of 5+5 but I’m wondering if that was at least semi-related to waking up at a crazy hour (4.30am) for an early flight and not managing much sleep. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ 🔘 Increased creamy CM. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
