Pregnancy So Far (1-17 weeks)

Well this pregnancy has been pretty much uneventful so far. Thats a good thing.

Below I'll give you a basic outline of how things have gone. I'll put things into basic terms people who have never been pregnant can understand...because sometimes I get comments that people think are cute, but really they don't know what the heck they are talking about. I'm not getting too personal...the first 4ish weeks are pretty basic for most women.

Week #1...Regular Female Cycle Issues
Week #2...Nothing Much, ovulation late this week OR
Week #3...Ovulation occurs early this week, which means sperm & egg must meet within 24hrs. Implantation occurs. The egg must bury itself into the uterine lining to survive.
Week #4...Normal stuff, at the end of this week normal women usually miss their cycle & decide to test.
Week #5...I tested early this week, because my cycles are different. It was VERY positive. The only symptoms I had were minimal constipation & gassiness. Not bad really. Easily solved. By the end of this week I was exhausted... totally & completely exhausted.
Week #6...Exhausted.
Weeks #7-11...I won't bore you. I had mild nausea which was solved by an occasional cup of peppermint tea. I won't describe this as "morning sickness"...because I've HAD morning sickness & this wasn't it. Other than that...exhaustion. Shear exhaustion.
Week #11...We announce our pregnancy.
Week #12-14...Nothing new. I'm exhausted.
Week #15...Exhausted & measuring 3-4 weeks ahead (18-19 weeks).
Week #16...Exhausted & still measuring 4 weeks ahead (20 weeks).
Week #17...Exhausted & still measuring 4 weeks ahead (21-22 weeks).
