Well, so far so good! I seem to feel better earlier in the day and get more nausea and such later in the day. I'm having the "pinchy" implantation cramps on and off still which is a good thing as far as I've been told. I've been trying to take it easy, I did walk around the mall for a while on Saturday and have lunch with a girlfriend but than came home and laid on the couch the rest of the night! Went out to breakfast and to Costco on Sunday and napped on and off! I had a terribly stuffy nose and a headache last night but I slept a lot and took a nice hot shower this morning and feel ok now!
So, this baby seems to like peanutbutter!! When I first get out of bed in the morning, I'm dizzy so I eat a spoon of peanut butter right out of the jar and feel better! I'll scoope a spoon out a few times a day and its just really yummy to me right now! Odd, because I've never been much of a peanutbutter eater in the past!! LOL!! I usually have a big sweet tooth but sugary things don't settle well right now and I was actually craving PEAS last night, of all things!
My boobs are very sore and seem to be growing!! I'm very small chested so the prospect of having boobs for once is kind of fun!   I tend to be dizzy most of the time and the nausea comes and goes. I get very tired easily but overall I feel pretty good! Just as a little reasurrance this weekend, I peed on a pregnancy test stick and the test line was nice and dark! I haven't had any bleeding at all so I'm still thinking positive and I'm getting very excited!!! I will go in Wednesday for a blood test to check my beta but I won't get the results until Thursday. Next week Wednesday will be the ultrasound. I will be 6.3 weeks and hopefully I'll get the see the baby's heartbeating! Will even seems to be happy and is talking baby things more now and has been really helping me out a lot around the house and making sure I'm comfortable!  Stick Baby Stick!!!

I'm glad you're still positive and upbeat!! It's probably very hard for you to not completely analyze everything you feel throughout the day, I know I would. Even now, every twinge in my abdomen area makes me wonder if my IBS is acting up. I just tell people I am very in tune with my body, ha ha.
But so far, so good right?? Got my fingers crossed for ya!

Glad to hear your report Michele! All sounds good!!! Did you see my last post to you on your other thread? You had asked some questions about my numbers and weeks. Anyhow, I did get a HB at 6 wks. It was actually 6wks 3 days!! So I hope next Wed gets here fast for you!!!
Funny about the peanut butter and peas!! Strange craving! LOL

Oh boy, I was trying to be healthy and eat an apple, which was very yummy! But then I felt like I had a piece of the skin inbetween my front teeth and when I looked in the mirror, I saw a rather big dark spot so got out the dental floss. Well, its not apple peel, its chipped! My front teeth are kind of prominant and its right inbetween them, not on the bottom edge or anything! It really looks like I have a big wedge of food stuck there but its sharp and definitely chipped!
I called my dentist and he won't numb me or do any x-rays or anything else like that since I'm high risk pregnancy until after the 1st trimester. He thought he might be able to fill it in with something for the time being as I don't think there is a cavity or anything else there. I sure hope he can do something because I feel like I look like a hillbilly!

Michele-
I am so glad to hear that you are still feeling bad! LOL Actually I am glad you are being positive right now. That is good for you and your little bean!
As for the tooth I'll ask Mark tonight if there is anything to do about it. Maybe he might have some suggestions. If your dentist can't help you then maybe you might have to drive down here for Mark to see you!!
