38, 1st pregnancy, and nervous

Lori

Aunt Flo was due on a Friday, and I just knew she wouldn't show. That next Monday I had a regular doc appt with my endocrinologist, and he ran a blood test that was bfn. Okay... too early? 10 after missed period tried a home test, bfn. Yesterday was 19 days late, so tried again and bfp!!

My actual first clue, before I was late, was a super sensitive nose. Now my biggest symptom is a constant low grade cramping... low enough that I'm just constantly aware of my uterus.

I was a teacher for the past years, and we decided that I was going to stay home and focus on TTC and lowering stress. Then COVID and I'm amazingly grateful we made that call last winter.

Any advice and/or good vibes are appreciated. I'm not telling anyone other than hubby for a bit, so y'all are my outlet.
