I wish I had a LITTLE nausea at this point in my pregnancy so it seemed more "real." Instead I'm just getting cramps (which I have had for a few weeks now) and sore boobs. If the morning sickness shows up I will probably really regret this comment. I'm almost 6 weeks so I guess the worst will probably come.

morning sickness usually says hello around 8 weeks. brace yourself
___heyvanity 3rd-Dec-2012 04:54 pm (UTC)
I have an ultrasound at 7 weeks. If we hear a heartbeat and everything looks normal, it'll feel more real--morning sickness or not. I am counting the days because I'm just worried sick about a miscarriage.

ooh yeah...careful what you wish for. i'm currently 7 1/2 mos pregnant...i wouldn't want to wish for that.

although, every pregnancy is different. my first (she's now 10) i was not sick at all. this one...UGH...it's there not as severe as the first two trimesters. :\

Wait a couple of weeks but be careful what you wish for, I had terrible morning sickness.
But I understand the feeling of wanting the pregnancy to feel more real.

Aww, congrats!! I'm 12 weeks myself, and I didn't get any nausea until about 8 weeks I think. It's been on and off for a month or so, mostly food aversions and smells getting to me. 6 weeks is still really early, so I'm sure your symptoms will change in a few weeks.

Good luck, I hope you don't get anything too bad!

deceitful Re: About Time! She's never been NOT pregnant. 3rd-Dec-2012 05:00 pm (UTC)
It is so gross and creepy when a magazine publishes a whole pregnancy and a loss of said pregnancy even if it's not real. Who sits around and thinks..hmm our story clearly didn't pan out let's say she lost it!
pineandapple Re: About Time! She's never been NOT pregnant. 3rd-Dec-2012 05:00 pm (UTC)
Well, it is a baby for Christmas, though. Sort of.

Apparently she has had a longer pregnancy than Jessica Simpson.

yay i'm so excited lol.

also i just read this long-ass royalty fic series on ao3 where prince william and prince carl-phillip are together lol and i made myself a little crazy because it was so well written and the characterization was so awesome and i wanted everything to be true lol.
black_blasphemy 3rd-Dec-2012 04:55 pm (UTC)
they have fanfic for royalty???

the internet continue to surprise me

girl they have fanfic for nail polish lol
__papillon 3rd-Dec-2012 05:26 pm (UTC)
yep lol: this is the first story (about william and cp), part of an entire series . it's basically about all the male princes and a lot of them are in love with each other and most of the time it's very hand wave-y and not at all realistic lol but it's very well written. the main couple is william and cp and their stories are my fave so i mostly just read their's but they also exist in the other stories about the other princes. i ended up really wanting the whole thing to be true lol which is sad and also because the irl version of these people are not as awesome as they are in fic lulz.

sometimes the heavy diana stuff is hinted at and the way it's handled is so sweet and it gives me feelings lol /ridic i know.

this is all much better than the early stuff i found years ago where it was like, william had a secret lover and then he'd leave him by climbing out the window at eton, and then there was this one fic where a caterer waitress serving prince william food hits her head and wakes up as his sister but it's kind of incestuous? also william/harry exists lol crying.
juteux 3rd-Dec-2012 04:58 pm (UTC)
THERE IS ROYALTY FIC? ROYALTY SLASH FIC?

i mean i know i shouldn't be surprised but damn.
nappingathena 3rd-Dec-2012 05:08 pm (UTC)
Is that the one where Harry ends up getting a Catholic stripper pregnant? I liked the first one with William and CP, but not the spinoff with Gui from Lux and Amadeo from Belgium cause they're too closely related.
heyx_lyla 3rd-Dec-2012 04:54 pm (UTC)
Wonderful news!
