Minnesota May Moms-to-be

KShep715

Any others out there? It's my first and I'm in Woodbury, MN. EDD May 25, but having an US next Wed to listen and see for sure!

Week 6 for me: Food aversions to the max! and constantly queasy. pasta and white bread are about all that sound OK. And I miss my energy!

I used to live in Maple Grove, but recently moved to ND. I'm 7w5d and EDD is May 15. I had an US last week and everything looked to be right on track!

Week 7: I ONLY want carbs! Haha. I feel tired, especially in the evenings, and also have breast tenderness. No major food aversions, other than some meat, and can't STAND the smell of food being reheated.

Hi! I'm in Minneapolis. Expecting my third around the end of the month. Which practice are going to?

I'm just shy of 6 weeks and have little to no aversions. With my first two (both boys) I could barely eat anything by now. I have been craving meat like nobodies business though!

Welcome to the board!

I'm in South Minneapolis and expecting #2 on May 22. No MS, super sense of smell though. Looking forward to my first appointment next week, also looking forward to telling people in 6 more weeks. Boy that's a long time to wait!

I'm in Plymouth an expecting after a Mc in early July. EDD is May 10. We have our first appointment on Tuesday, I will be 9 weeks at that appointment. Been super duper queasy but no puking thankfully! As far as food, something sounds good to me one minute and then the next minute it sounds disgusting!

I'm about an hour north of the cities (not going to say which one cuz of my screen name and it's a small town - I was new to this! ). EDD is may 12th, first appointment is oct 12th.

I'm starving. All. The. Time. Bloated and tired, so feeling glamorous!

As most North Dakotans are, I'm a fan of the MN Vikings and Twins.

I live in North Dakota as well!

I am in South Minneapolis expecting my second baby May 7. We had a miscarriage in April so a lot of nerves this time but all is going well. Heard the heartbeat 2 weeks ago and go back in on 10/16. We're going to Clinic Sophia in Edina. My other baby is really a toddler and will be 3 November 30. She's super excited to be a big sister!

Super sore boobs for the last 5 weeks. I have a little baby bump and my skin is the worst it has ever been in my life. I crave sweets and carbs for thepst part, but I also love apples.

Congrats mamas!

St paul girl here. Expecting my second may 18th. My son is 7 so quite an age gap. Lots of morning sickness but my midwife group is amazing and helping alot. Dicligis has been a god send and grainy carbs settle my tummy alot. Im also super super sleepy so work has been hard.

@Jesse835235 and @ruggles0909, what part of ND are you from? I'm in the Bismarck area!

I'm in Plymouth expecting my first. My first appt is Oct. 7th but they won't do an U/S until later. Going insane with not knowing if this is going to work out. Hoping for the best!

Coming over from the April board...due April 25 (so it could be May!...).  I'm in Roseville, first time mom-to-be!  So fun to see a few MN moms!  

@sjecc09 -- I know quite a few people who have delivered with midwives, I'm at a Healtheast Clinic and there is a midwife group there, I'm not going that route but it is an option.

sjecc09

@UnbreakableKimmySchmidt I wish I had them as a closer option! I moved from Maple Grove to ND in January, and there aren't any midwives close! I have met 2 of the PAs and one of the OBs at the practice with prior appointments, but I'll meet my doctor (recommended by an OB at Mayo/relative) on 11/3! I hope I like her and that she is supportive of a natural labor and delivery (if I can handle it)!

look up Minnesota birth center. I have been nothing but happy with them and my first apt isn't until Monday. They have been more than helpful and I have a few friends that have nothing but positive things to say about them.
