Re: Monday 10/19 ticker change
Upcoming Appointments: Wednesday for our 12 week! Can't wait to see our little one again!
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: I am finally starting to feel better. I guess what they say about the 2nd tri is true!
Questions for the group: None today
GTKY: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be? Pad Thai from a local Thai place that H and I go to all the time.
Upcoming Appointments: 11/5 for my first appointment with my OB. We will get to hear the heartbeat for the first time! 11/9 for my 1st Tri screening ultrasound!
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: Symptoms:Nausea is bad...I can't wait until I don't feel nauseous anymore and I'm really hoping it ends soon. Preggie Pops have been helping a little bit. No other symptoms even compare at this point. Rave: I just got the most comfortable jeans ever from my stitch fix this weekend and I want to replace all of my jeans now. They have a stretchy band around the top instead of a button and zipper, but they aren't maternity jeans.
GTKY: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be? Right now I think nothing...if I had to choose maybe cereal/granola with a lot of milk.
Upcoming Appointments: 11/2- 1st ultrasound. 2 more weeks. I feel like I have been waiting forever.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: I am so incredibly tired all the time. And nauseas, although the nausea has died down a bit. Yesterday I was so tired I needed to nap or I wasn't going to make it through the day. It was bad.
Questions for the group:
GTKY: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be? That is such a tough question. I love food so much LOL. But I guess it would be a medium rare steak, with anything sweet potato (baked, fries, tots), and some broccoli. MMMMM.
Make a pregnancy ticker
Upcoming Appointments: Dating ultrasound this morning!!!
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: Sometimes nauseous, exhaustion, sometimes I just feel crappy.
Questions for the group: Anyone else develop an antibody in your blood since your last pregnancy? Apparently I've developed anti-E. Not sure what it means yet. Will learn more next week at my Dr. Appt.
GTKY: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be? Pizza!
Upcoming Appointments: 3 1/2 weeks away (just had one on Friday)
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: I took off on Friday for dr. appt and daycare touring and since I got in this morning, I've only heard about nitpicky things I did wrong that were 'caught' while I was out. Way to welcome me back, team!
Questions for the group: Is anyone else struggling to get enough sleep? I'm only getting 6 1/2 to 7 1/2 hours of sleep per night, even on the weekends.
GTKY: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be? decinitely feeling the pizza movement!
Upcoming Appointments: I've had two so far, and two u/s. Next appointment isn't until 14 weeks.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: Symptoms: Tired, tired, tired. Rave: MH's family gets on my nerves so much! His sister and brother know the news, but we haven't spoken to them yet. We've called both and left VMs--yet neither has bothered to call back. (We know they know the news because MH's dad told us that he told them. Which also bugs me). Anyhow, how hard is it to call your brother back for a congratulatory phone call? UGH!
Questions for the group: None.
GTKY: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be? Anything with tomatoes. I've made this jambalaya-inspired soup the last two weeks. IT has a tomato base. I'm salivating just thinking about it right now!
DS: Born 5-17-16
Upcoming Appointments: I have my NTS ultrasound today. I'm just focusing on how pumped I am to see the baby and trying not to focus on this being screening for abnormalities, which I'm low risk for but is still scary! My mom is coming with me, she is so cute. I invited her to come since she had said she'd like to see an ultrasound, then last night she was like "So do you think I'll get to be in the room when you do the ultrasound?" Of course! Thats why I invited you!
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: I think overall, my nausea is better than it was around week 6, 7, and 8. Or its possibly I'm just more used to it now. But its really getting to me. I just want to feel ok again. Everything gets worse at night, too. I've been taking vitamin B/unisom three times a day which has been helpful, but I'm almost out of vitamin B so I stopped taking it for a couple days. NOPE. Ordered some more this morning, I feel horrible again. I was really hoping that I'd stop taking and be like "Oh, I don't actually feel too bad!"
GTKY: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be? Cheese fries. I've always loved cheese fries, and the other day DH and I went to Outback because those are some of my favorite cheese fries. I basically ate all of them. Also, I'm pretty sure my mom and I are going to get MORE cheese fries today. Healthy? Not at all. Do I care right now? Not at all.
Upcoming Appointments: Tomorrow! I have my first ultrasound and a nurse practitioner appointment. I am counting down the minutes until 2 pm tomorrow.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: I'm a hot mess. I absolutely hate not feeling like myself. I'm so exhausted. I don't have much of an appetite and when I do eat, there is a high likelihood I end up with stomach issues. This morning I woke up thinking, "wow, I feel decent". I took a shower and then nasty nausea hit. Yuck! I feel like such a whiny, complainer.
GTKY: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be? This is tough. I think I'm going to go with pizza. It's a trusted standby and hasn't disappointed me yet.
Upcoming Appointments: Had lab today for non invasive genetic test. OB appointment in 2 weeks for 12 week check up.
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: Kinda calm now, which is nice considering I was so nauseous up until last week. Of course, decrease in symptoms freaked me out but a quick check showed munchkin is just fine.
Questions for the group: Has anyone else needed a small snack lately? I used to be content with regular meals but now I find myself needing a small snack a couple hours after because I'm so hungry.
GTKY: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be?
Pizza hands down.
**edited because I somehow jacked up my own post and had half of it missing when it posted.
DS: Born 5-17-16
Upcoming Appointments: 10/30 NT and anatomy scan, plus MaterniTi 21 test. Can't wait to see my wee lass on ultrasound again!
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: I have a cold and it's annoying af. I feel blah. No pregnancy symptoms anymore though, which is both a blessing and a curse.
Questions for the group: I guess more for other FTMs: Have you felt closer to your own parents now that you are pregnant?
GTKY: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be?: Tekka maki! I hate that I can't have sushi every week anymore.
*edited for typo
Upcoming Appointments: 1st apt tomorrow! Finally!!
Rants/Raves/Symptoms: nausea, nausea and more nausea. My first pregnancy I was able to eat a small snack and it would help. This time along I feel like nothing is making it better.
Rave: we told our family this weekend! It's so nice to start sharing the great news!!
Questions for the group:
GTKY: If you could only eat one meal for the rest of your life what would it be? Avacados! I love them with everything! Especially making homemade guac!
Edited cause I wanted to share a rave too!
