Re: MONDAY SYMPTOMS

  • How far along are you? 6 weeks 3 days

    How are you feeling? Well, the sickness fairy showed up last night. I was blessed with allllll the fun stuff!

    Rants/Raves? - Attempted to have some sexy time with DH last night. Shortly into it, I ran to the bathroom and puked up dinner, plus whatever else may have been in there. To say that put a damper on things is a bit of an understatement. Whomp Whomp.

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be? - Platform shoes. I remember they came back for a short while when I was in middle school and they were SO fun.

  • How far along are you? 9w2d according to LMP. I have a feeling I may be a few days earlier when I go in for my OB appt.

    How are you feeling? So bloated this morning. Like it actually hurts and is so uncomfortable. Other than that, tired and and moody. I still don't understand how I can be so tired after getting 10+ hours of sleep every night all weekend long.

    Rants/Raves? Welp, I found out last Friday exactly when I'll be getting laid off. December 31st will be my last day so I'm scrambling trying to find something else sooner rather than later so I don't have to try and interview with a 5/6 month belly. If anyone remembers my ambitious goals for the weekend, I only got the painting done. I was, indeed, asleep on the couch by 8pm both Friday and Saturday.

    GTKY:
    I'm gonna have to say leather jackets. I love how you can look classy and badass all at the same time.
  • @WinchestertoPittsburgh sorry to hear you've joined the pukey club but not gonna lie kind of giggled about your attempted sexy time, mostly because I've been there too.

    @mrsschmity I'm sorry to hear about your work situation, its good to know a definite date since I got the impression they weren't even telling you that but at the same time, it sucks to have such a concrete line. Best of luck finding a new position! Also I dont feel like quite so much of a slacker after hearing your super productive weekend wasn't as productive as planned so thank you for that!


    How far along are you?
    7w3d

    How are you feeling?
    Tired, can't sleep on my chest because my boobs ache. B6 seems to make me not naseous all day but I've still been hitting my 1-3x/day puke quota. Honestly, I'll take it.

    Rants/Raves?
    First appointment tomorrow, and I'm a mix of excited and nervous. Hoping we get a solid heartbeat!

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be?
    Uhhh, not sure if they're "from the past" but I kind of want to go out and get a pair of Birkenstock clogs because those were so so comfy back in high school.

    @WinchestertoPittsburgh - That made me laugh, but I'm sorry that you're so sick!  And kudos to you for putting in the effort! 

    @mrsschmity - Painting still sounds super productive to me.  And best of luck in the new (and super unfortunately timed) job hunt!

    @Sgoldberg247 - Good luck at your appt!

    How far along are you? 7w2d

    How are you feeling? Couldn't finish breakfast this morning and spent all day yesterday napping or trying to figure out what in our fridge/pantry sounded least revolting.

    Rants/Raves? It's our anniversary today and we were going to go get a nice dinner tonight... hopefully this nausea passes?  If not, we might be celebrating in our pajamas on the couch... with bagels.  DH is being super helpful and considerate about all of this.  He's a keeper.

    GTKY
    If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be? I honestly have no idea.  Fashion isn't really my thing.  How about leg warmers?  It was 30 degrees this morning and my legs could have used some extra fluff to keep them toasty.

  • @WinchestertoPittsburgh Ditto PPs, sorry you're feeling so pukey! I feel bad that I haven't been visited by the puke fairy yet since most of you guys are so miserable. But I'm also thanking my lucky starts and knocking on wood that it stays this way.

    @Sgoldberg247 Thank you :) I'm trying to make the best of the whole situation. As far as my weekend plans - I was feeling so ambitious too. The painting took me all day on Saturday and part of Sunday morning. Then H came home from hunting. I'm so ready for the exhausting to go away.

    @Kballew10 Happy anniversary!

    How are you feeling?
    Meh. A bit nauseas but otherwise okay.

    Rants/Raves?
    I told one of my 2 principals this morning because I need/want out of a 2day conference away next week. I was SO nervous & shaking the whole time. She was so understanding, though. And now she'll probably tell the other one (she's away for 2 days). Phew.

    I'm drawing a huge blank right now. Can I blame pregnancy brain?! Lol...

  • @WinchestertoPittsburgh: I'm sorry you got sick, but your story cracked me up a little. A for effort!

    @mrsschmity: Well done on the painting! And that stinks about having to scramble to find a new job so soon. Wishing you lots of luck!

    @sgoldberg247: Yay for B6!

    @Kballew10: Happy anniversary!

    @DeePaddy24: That's great your principal was so understanding!

    How far along are you? 6w4d

    How are you feeling? Exhausted. No actual throwing up, but a handful of false alarms so far. Ginger ale, ginger candy, and granola bars are the current fixes of choice. Also, my boobs are sore, and I'm uncomfortably bloated. Otherwise good! Haha

    Rants/Raves? Had a nice, semi-productive weekend complete with 2 naps. Win.

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be?
    Hmm. Definitely giant shoulder pads.

    Kidding! I have no idea. I basically wear what I want anyway, regardless of trends. :D

  • How far along are you? 9/2

    How are you feeling? Ok. I was hit with something Saturday and did nothing all day. I stayed in my pajamas. Yesterday was better and we went see James Bond!

    Rants/Raves? Just ready for some more energy.

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be?
    @mrsschmity I'm wearing a leather jacket today. LOL..I bought it last year. I think it's still in style. Maybe. I don't know.

    I really can't think of much that I wish would come back. All I think of is shoulder pads and high waisted jeans and then I cringe.
  • How far along are you? 7w3d

    How are you feeling?  HORRIBLE! I haven't actually gotten sick but the nausea is doing me in.  

    Rants/Raves? I got most all of my Christmas shopping finished this weekend! The stores were already a mad house! Luckily all we have left is our daughter!

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be? Um... no clue.  I have never been one for fashion, but I am loving the big piko tops and palazzo pants.  Always my outfit of choice for work, or a weekend out.  (also about all that will fit me pretty soon lol).

  • @WinchestertoPittsburgh A for effort! I'm sorry that happened to you!

    @Mrsschmity Good luck on your job hunt! Fx you find something you love quickly!

    @Deepaddy24 it must be a relief in some regard for work to know! I'm having a hard time hiding it with all the work dinners we have (avoiding wine!) 

    @Kballew10 Happy anniversary! 

    How far along are you? 7 weeks 3 days


    How are you feeling? Pretty good, the bloat is down, and the scale was down 2 pounds this morning (it had skyrocketed 6 pounds in the last few weeks with bloat!) Last night I was very nauseous but today so far I'm doing OK and I'm wearing normal pants so I'll consider that a win! 

    Rants/Raves? RAVE that I managed to survive Saturday night out "Drinking" with my sisters at a martini bar... I had called ahead and made the reservation in my name and told them what color I'd be wearing & to make all of my drinks "mocktails" the waiter was like my BFF... he did an awesome job - even when my Brother in Law called & sent a round of special drinks to the table, he had one set aside for me with just juice, and he handed me the bill at the end so no one was suspicious of missing drinks :) I consider this a major win & now all I have to do is get to Friday when we have our first appointment and then we tell our parents together on Saturday!! 

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be? Hmmm, I really love the shift dresses/mod fashion of the 60's. Lilly pulitzer is my favorite designer so I do still wear a lot of that inspired clothing, but I'm in the minority with that. I just love dresses all the time, I'm not much of a "casual wear" person I prefer to be in dresses all the time.

  • How far along are you?  10w1d

    How are you feeling?  Good.  No bad symptoms.  Very lightly tender boobs, but that's fading today it seems.  Not having nausea when I don't eat, and I don't feel fatigued right now.  Yay!

    Rants/Raves?  Finally getting over this cold, woohoo!  So is DH.  He said he woke up for the first time in a week feeling pretty good.  So glad.  Poor guy.  

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be?  Victorian style dresses... I don't know why, but I just looooove them.

  • @chelthorn - Done already?  I haven't even thought about it yet!  Good for you!!!!

    @MsBeachNJ - Hooray for accommodating bar tenders!  I applaud your efforts!  We've already had 2 of DH's friends call me out on not drinking - luckily, they were close friends that I didn't mind telling early anyway.  Clearly you have a skill that I do not!

  • How far along are you? Between 7w6d and 8w4d- depending on LMP or ultrasound

    How are you feeling? Alright. I'm mostly nauseous in the middle of the night. It wakes me up :( I'm also super bloated, sore boobs (getting old), and still super tired.

    Rants/Raves? Its Monday :( that's my rant. And I have to run an iffy meeting tomorrow. Also, we announced to the first person yesterday, my brother, and he really didn't care. Didn't even ask the due date. My rave is that my ma is flying into town on Wednesday!!

    haha @Kballew10 We buy for A LOT of kids in our family (at least 10) and last year we shopped early and it was so nice not having to get out in the craziness after Thanksgiving.  Plus our closest bigger city with a mall, Target, etc. is 45 minutes away so when we make a trip there we make it worth the drive.  Now my 3 year old daughter hasn't decided what to ask Santa for yet so it looks like I will be making another trip there or just shopping online.

    How are you feeling? -always starts off good and goes downhill, so fine at the moment

    Rants/Raves-just a case of the good 'ol Mondays. I'm counting down 'till Thanksgiving week when I can take some time off.

  • How far along are you?  7 weeks today

    How are you feeling? Crappy!  The nausea has hit with vengeance!!  I haven't thrown up yet, just so nauseous! I had the easies pregnancy with my ds, I was hoping for the same this time around.  But it doesn't look like that's going to happen!  :(

    Rants/Raves? We go in for an ultrasound today to see what's happening with the third baby.  I'm so nervous and scared!!  I just want today to be over!

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be? Big, chunky Doc Martin type shoes!  I love how they look with tights and short floral dresses or skirts!  I guess I want that whole look to come back!

  • @jaceyannie: Best of luck at the ultrasound today!
  • How far along are you? 7-8 weeks, probably. I'll find out for sure on the 17th. 

    How are you feeling? I feel like I have the stomach flu 24/7. So basically the same as I felt with my first, plus exhaustion. Hopefully fewer hospital visits for fluids this time. 

    Rants/Raves? I swear to God if one more person tells me nausea is a "good sign", I will vomit on their shoes. 

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be? I wish girls could wear dresses all the time without people asking why we're dressing up. I looooove vintage dresses. 
  • How far along are you? 8w4d

    How are you feeling? nauseous. tired.
    Rants/Raves? I thought this pregnancy would feel like it was flying by given it's my third. nope. not even a little.

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be?

    hospital scrub pants as actual pants - only b/c I am pregnant and feel like a giant blob.

  • @feenstas agreed on the "nausea is a good thing". When I mentioned to my MIL that nausea had set it, her response was " yay!". My mom was a little less enthuastic and just said it is reassuring. You don't get to say its a good thing unless you're the one going through it. Ugh

    How far along are you? 9w6d

    How are you feeling? Tired, sore boobs, super emotional, headache, and starving, no matter what I eat!

    Rants/Raves?  My mom drives me crazy.  Saw her yesterday and I'm still upset about it.  She talks to me like I'm a child, ignores my husband, and only talks about herself for hours.  Not looking forward to telling her that I'm pregnant!

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be?  This isn't necessarily a piece of clothing, but I went to a Broadway show yesterday and people were wearing jeans (I wore leggings because of my bloated self).  I wish we had to dress up for a show still and make it a fancy event!
  • @mrsschmity Sorry to hear about your work situation. FX you find something soon!

    @jaceyannie: Hope everything goes well at the ultrasound today!

    @Kballew10: Happy anniversary!

    How are you feeling? Welp, doctor confirmed I have an upper respiratory infection and prescribed amoxicillin. Oh well, better to get rid of it then for it to get worse. I seem to get either an upper respiratory infection or an ear infection this time of year every year. Other than that, nausea, bloating, and really tired no matter how much I sleep.

    Rants/Raves? Rant: being sick and having to take medication. Rave: being home with DH and my pup? DH works from home which is usually awesome except he's super busy in meetings all day.

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be? Umm... I have no idea. I don't know anything about fashion. I can think of tons of things to NOT bring back though. lol

    How are you feeling? Ehh.  The colace is doing it's job, thank the good lord cause sitting was getting uncomfortable.

    Rants/Raves? DD is getting a cold and I really would love to sit at home with her and snuggle but that doesn't pay the bills and I don't need to get sick.  Hoping she gets past it quickly.

  • I'm 9w6d

    Week 9 has been a pretty good week for me. Today I'm feeling extra sluggish but I think that's mainly due to not getting enough sleep last night. I spent 5 hours on math homework! I'm hoping to go to crossfit after work. That always makes me feel better but I need to get extra motivated to go.

    My rant is that I hate my new pregnant body :(. My boobs are huge and my stomach is gross. I have gained 5lbs which isn't a big deal because I fluctuate about 5lbs anyway from time to time. But I swear to me I look like I've gained 15lbs! I hate that I hate my body so much because it's doing such a beatiful thing. Maybe once I start feeling better I'll feel better about my body.

    Hhmmm fashion to bring back. I would say the dresses that women wore back in the 40's and 50's. Just the everyday dresses they wore. I love that era.
  • @MrsOdom2488 I've lost 7 lbs and still look like I've gained weight, its ridiculous. Agreed on not liking my pregnant body at the moment. I can't wait until a real bump hits instead of this squishyness, then at least I'll look pregnant, not just chubby.
  • @Sgoldberg247 that's exactly what I'm waiting for! I like the bump part....just not the blump!

    @mrsschmity Girl, I love leather jackets. I have two and I cannot wait for Georgia to cool down for good so I can rock them whenever we go out.
     Also, This is great! So nice to comment and read what other mamas are up to. 

    How far along are you? I'm 6 weeks and 5 days along (going off the date of my last missed period). 

    How are you feeling? My breast tenderness is going away a bit now actually. Hopefully that's normal/OK. Otherwise I feel pretty good. Of course I'm tired - especially this late in the day, but otherwise nothing.. 

    Rants/Raves? I finally got a call from my doc. and I should be getting a call from my OB's office soon. I thought I would get the call today, but it's getting late so maybe not - lame. I just want to make that first appointment already! I shouldn't get myself so worked up, but I just want to make sure everything is going well and the little babe is healthy and growing! 

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be? I'm a HUGE fan of the 70s style peasant tops. Love love love them.
  • How far along are you? 7w1d

    How are you feeling? Nausea when I think of food including anything with melted cheese. It makes me sad because pizza and Mexican food are my favorites but just thinking of them make me gag. Boobs have crazy veining and hurt, pee all the time and I cant tolerate stupid right now.

    Rants/Raves? Hubby went to the grocery store yesterday and got everything I asked and then some. This has never happened. I asked if he had looked into what I might be able to eat and he said no, just guessed. Other than the tuna he was spot on! Coco Krispys are my life right now.

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be: Jnco Jeans. They were ugly but comfortable. Hate the way skinny jeans feel!
  • How Far-7 weeks!

    Feeling-nauseous, tired, cranky, quilty. I was going to make turkey burgers for dinner for us but it grossed me out so cereal it is! And my boobs are so gigantic they have their own zip code. And I'm beyond bloated.

    Rants/Raves-everything irritates me no matter how weird. I have no idea how my husband is putting up with me. I'm so upset there's no ice cream in the freezer I'm in tears.

    GTKY-I'd love to bring back the 20s flapper style! It looks like so much fun!!
  • 7w3d
    Feeling extra tired, I feel like I'm gonna have a breakdown any moment. Last night I felt nauseous after work, didn't eat a thing and went bed at 6:30pm... Didn't wake up until my alarm went off at 6:30am!! I can't complain too much because my first pregnancy was way worse than this one, but I feel so down.
    Rant/rave - I gotta give credit to my husband for taking charge with our toddler and getting things done when I'm laying in bed feeling sorry for myself
    GTKY- I would like to bring back.... 50's style dresses and everything really!
  • How far along are you?
    7w2d
    How are you feeling? Sick! I've been nauseous all day blegh and had very little Appetite.

    Rants/Raves? I'm so tired of being exhausted and nauseous! I just want to feel normal again! It's only week 7! I haven't actually gotten physically sick much but the all day Nausea is killing me!!

    GTKY: If you could bring back one piece of fashion from the past what would it be? The 1950's house wife dresses so classy and beautiful !
