How are you feeling? Slight nausea that I can mostly control by not jumping straight out of bed running right away and eating every 2 hours on the dot. Doing anything baby related today? Bumping
Rant/Rave/Positive Vibes: Its been super hard to keep this secret bc we had to move in with my parents temporarily, which means I feel like crap and everybody is around. Plus I have the two kiddos to take care of so if im relaxing my mom is judging me like Im not taking care of my kids, but I also have to fake it alot that im doing okay so they dont suspect. We're also fixing our own house that we just bought which requires a lot of energy I dont have. But on the other hand I love this time of year and Im so excited to just be pregnant. And have a place where I can share it
Questions?
GTKY- Tell us your guilty pleasure! Salty foods most recently Ritz crackers, stacked with sharp cheddar, a slice of pepperoni and a slice of pickle (dont knock it till you try it!!! Its amazing!) Also late night binge watching Quantico, Survivor (yes im one of the 5 people on the planet still watching), Reign, Gold rush, Alaskan Bush people and Hart of Dixie. So pretty much something from every random genre of tv!

@WinchesterGirl Its not breakfast, but after lunch I start to feel sick. I bring a clementine for an afternoon snack and as soon as I eat it I feel so much better. I normally don't even like citrus fruit, but these are really helping me.
For breakfast I have some vanilla yogurt and granola.
How are you feeling? Like crapola... All day nausea/heaves/gagging....go from hot to cold like it's my job,the sore boobs and food aversion/hightened sense of smell is killing me.

Questions?
Answer - First grandchild for my parents, second on DH's side of the family. But his sister was a very young when she had her son, so this will be the first time a baby is cause for celebration, not "OMG what did you DOOOOOO?" on his side of the family. Not that they don't celebrate her son, but his parents basically ARE parents to his nephew, so being able to just be grandma and grandpa without the added financial and emotional burden of being the parent as well - that'll be a first.

Food - I've been eating pickles and I feel like such a cliché. But... such salty goodness, which is all I've been craving. I keep trying to justify that they are cucumbers... kinda. Sorta...
How are you feeling? I am dealing with some insomnia so I am pretty dang tired with 3 kids to take care of during the day! I have been feeling a little m/s but I am not sure if it is true m/s already or if it is due to lack of sleep.
Doing anything baby related today? Nope.... 99% of the time I forget I am pregnant

GTKY- Tell us your guilty pleasure! You may choose from any category - food, TV, music, anything! Guilty pleasure... that is tough! I am definitely splurging on the moment watching TOO MUCH netflix!

Right now, Glee and tator tots!!
I would just say "I'm DD" or "I had a headache earlier so I took a couple tylenol and I don't want to get messed up"...
I didn't want to start a new thread and I just found this out later today that my doctor wants me to start taking progesterone supplements since I had a corpus luteum cyst rupture last week. I'll start tm since it's a twice a day med. Unfortunately it's s vaginal suppository and I was reading some crazy side effects on the package. Has anyone taken these or are taken these? Have you ever had any problems with them? Thanks for any advice ladies!
Expecting baby #1 August 2016
Already have three furbabies- Blake, Sydney, and Chester
@kcolly32 I just switched from progesterone oil injections to vaginal suppositories. I just had normal pregnancy symptoms with the injections (sore breasts, MS, and tired). When I switched, my first day or so my MS was so bad I could barely eat, but after that, no issues.
I'm on them due to IVF and have been three times in the past. No issues. Except eventually, it all clogs up and comes out (gross, sorry, but true). No concerns! I prefer them to the injections, that's for sure!
