> [@EmAnJ](#): > > I posted an update in the [Should I tell my boss weā€™re trying to conceive](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=570790&highlight=EmAnJ) thread as well - turns out we donā€™t need to worry about it! Congratulations! Thatā€™s fantastic news. I was just reading your other thread and was going to chime in with ā€œNo, donā€™t tell your boss!ā€ Iā€™m glad now that all you have to do is tell him you ARE pregnant! šŸ™‚ Iā€™m pregnant with my first right now - just hit 22 weeks. Iā€™m a type 1 diabetic, so itā€™s been a rough go, keeping everything in control. And oh god, the _morning sickness_. Itā€™s just started to taper off within the past few weeks. I had a few early spotting issues as well - if you can go in for an early ultrasound, I highly recommend it. And we should totally start a pregnancy thread here! ---

Thanks folks! Not out of the woods yet - Iā€™m still spotting a bit. Yesterday evening for an hour then this morning a bit. No cramps whatsoever though. I have a doctorā€™s appointment tomorrow morning and am awaiting my beta results from last Thursday. ---

> [@PandaMom](#): > > EmAnJā€¦I havenā€™t seen you on in a day or 2 now. How are you doing? Did you get the Beta results??? what did the doc say? I am keeping you in my prayers. Thanks. Well, turns out this one wasnā€™t sticky. I started miscarrying yesterday. My first beta was only 13, and my second, which was 6 days later was 16, so probably peaked and is now on itā€™s way back down. Iā€™m pretty upset and donā€™t really have much more to say. Thanks for the good thoughts and prayers, etc. ---
