Yes! I need protein too I've eaten so much chicken and yoghurt and cereal since my bfp!

Oh my gosh I had Raisin Bran cereal last night - first bowl of cereal in probably two years.... BEST. THING. EVER!!!!!

I know right? I still feel weird eating breakfast and strangely guilty! But it is just so good to eat normally again even my 3 yr old has noticed and says why are you eating meat mummy or why are you having the same as us mummy lol! He even noticed I'd switched back to tea instead of coffee haha!

Haha, you all are cracking me up with the diet change -- because now I'm not stressing as much when I first eat breakfast (though it's such a habit now that I haven't skipped it at all!). I have totally slacked on my protein intake and have eaten a lot more sugary things -- not good. I'm not even craving them or anything, I'll just eat something salty and savory and go "Hell, I don't need to watch the sweets as much now!" lol

ABC and kitten -- it's not like I WASN'T hungry with DD, haha! In the first few weeks with her, I'd go from just super nauseated to super hungry. Though I wasn't ravenous like I am now -- I was way more easily satiated compared to my constant eating now lol. But that could also be because of how I've been eating for HE all this time. I seems like a lot of us have been on our sway diets for ages lol.

Welcome kjoseph! So happy to see you in here!

At how many weeks did you have / are you having your first ultrasound? The office is going by my LMP but I have a long cycle so I am scheduled at 6w 3D for my first u/s. Should I try to push it back a week or two to make sure I can see and hear something?

[ABC.2606]

Kjoseph - what CD do you think you ovulated on? I know you weren't quite sure of the day. But I'm guessing if you ovulated well past CD14 then the ultrasound may show you as measuring behind and at 6w3d you may not see the heartbeat as baby wouldn't have developed enough yet. If you ovulated just a couple of days late then maybe it wouldn't matter.

I'm having my first scan tomorrow at 5w3d but that's because the RE wants an early scan given my 3 miscarriages in the past year. I ovulated right on CD14, but I still don't expect we'll see much beyond a gestational sac & yolk sac tomorrow. We'll probably have to go back next week for another scan.

[ABC.2606]

TP - Yes I want all the sweets too!!! Except today I'm feeling really nauseated and pretty much nothing sounds or tastes good. I'm still eating because I feel like I need something to settle my stomach but nothing seems to be helping! And my crazy insane burps are back! I had those with my last pregnancy (the last one I m/c) and it's like I get all this air built up, which contributes to my feeling nauseated, and then when I let it all out via burps I feel a little better. It's very weird! Not sure I remember having that with my boys.

I’m pretty sure I ovulated on CD 19

Kjoseph in my experience I would go later rather than earlier. With ds2 I went at 6+2 and no heartbeat had to go back again 2 weeks later. I would say around 7?weeks is safer to hear heartbeat? Saves money and worry.

I'm not getting scanned until my panorama test at around 9 weeks so no ramzi obsessing for me this time which is probably a good thing!

Only thing with no scan until 9 + weeks is I won't know if I have twins or not until then- not that I'm expecting to but because of the clomid and being older breastfeeding third pregnancy and quite a few twins on my maternal side I guess there is a possibility! Oh well wouldn't change anything anyway so we will see!

Loving the sweets too! And yep woke up due to a burp last night and ever so slightly nauseous this morning.
Another thing I've noticed is headaches on and off all day which I never had with boys.

I get it TP- with my boys I could have eaten all day and never got full just ate until the reflux was unbearable!
At the moment I get hungry, a little sick, eat then I'm good for a few hours. I think the le diet definitely decreased my appetite and shrunk my stomach if that's possible!
