Whelp...FINALLY tomorrow is my 1st ultrasound!! I feel like I'm been pregnant forever. FX all goes well! If it does go well, this is my announcement I plan to show everyone.

Other than that-- been sick, but slightly getting better. Been taking B6 vitamins. Some days I'm sick all day, and some days I'm only sick early in the morning and late at night. 
The baby loves anything potato or tomato right now, and ALL THE CHEEEEESE!

Hope you are all doing well!

Good luck tomorrow @lgsdesigner!

Not a lot going on here.  I have good days and bad.  I've been sleeping more than my new normal the past couple of days.  LO must be going through a growth spurt.

I'm very relieved to have switched to maternity jeans.  They're pretty comfortable.

Hope you are all well

@lgsdesigner - good luck today!

NeonNoon - yes, maternity jeans/pants are very comfortable - though I often check to make sure I zipped up my fly - then realize there is none!

AFM: 26 weeks, 4 days.  On Sat I had a bit of bleeding/spotting.  I was out of town and called my OB's office.  They said if it doesn't stop to go into the ER, if it does, just call first thing Monday.  It thankfully stopped by the end of the day (tapered off) and then we decided to drive home on Sunday vs fly (since this happened the day after flying and has happened one other time recently after flying).  Went in on Monday - everything looked good but I do have a friable (fragile/sensitive) cervix as a result of the pregnancy - basically it is 'juicy' and I am more susceptible to bleeding/spotting as a result - can happen from normal activity - just a weird coincidence that it happened both times after flying. My cervix was closed up tight though so that is good.

We did decide to cancel my flight for this weekend just in case (out of state family wedding) - though DH will still go.  I also had an ultrasound today to check cervical length just to be sure.  Everything is fine - it is nice and long.  I also learned our baby is ~1lb, 15oz and is in the 39th percentile for weight.  I thought this was bad but the tech said as long as it is over 10th that is good (she also added that I really don't want a baby in the 80th or 90th percentile for weight - which is a good point!).  Heart rate was a good strong 146bpm.  S/he continues to be super wiggly and stubborn - but they finally got all the measurements they needed.  And we finally got a good picture of the face (all the others the arms / hands have been covering the face).  Baby is also breech currently - but that is fine since I have plenty of time.  

Feeling better now that I have had the u/s - and added bonus that I got to see our little bean! (DH is traveling so missed this one!)

Hope you are all doing well - I think of you often!!!

Hi all!  11 weeks today and can't believe how it has flown by. Feeling a bit less tired, which is very welcome, and waiting for the end of next week to check in on the bean again. 

I had an inconclusive result from a routine blood screen for being a Tay Sachs carrier, so have to have another blood draw for a more conclusive test, unless they can bundle this with the CVS I'm having on Thursday! Looking forward to having some more information after next weekend.

My sense of smell is ridiculous. We were having dinner in the living room and I could smell every individual food on the table (including carrots !??!), but also faint scent of windex from the kitchen and that Ikea wood scent from the guest room.  I thought I had a good sense of smell before but this is completely crazy.

Hope to see you all on the P>35 side very soon!!! Keep up the good temping and charting work.
