My husband and I found out we were pregnant 2 weeks ago. I went to my first appointment to confirm the pregnancy. We are thrilled!!! I have only told my sister mainly because I just can't keep a secret like this between my husband and I alone she is my biggest supporter. The problem I have is that I am a Big Time worry-wart.
I have not had any morning sickness (thank god!), but I do have a sharp shooting pulling discomfort on my lower right side abdomen for the past three weeks. I've heard it's probably just legumin stretching or an... ectopic pregnancy... Am I worrying too much about the ectopic pregnancy? Would I know already??? This is my concern, can anyone shed some light?

Congrats and welcome!!! Please try not to worry so much, I know it's hard, but don't stress about anything! I had similar shooting pains a lot during my pregnancy, but if you have any doubts, ask your Dr. Hope you have a great 9 months!

You are all just so precious! Thank you AGAIN... It's kind of overwhelming (in a great way) getting all this wonderful support. I can't wait until my sonogram, 2 1/2 more weeks. I just saw my friends sonogram (she is 8 weeks) and let me tell you it was absolutely amazing! I could see the spine, head, arm & leg buds. I got very giddy...
The best part and most anxious part is waiting to tell our family. We will however wait until the first trimester has passed... I hope I can hold out. Once I get my sonogram I will post it. I have some great ideas on how to tell our family.
Thank you AGAIN!!!
