1. How far along are you? 6w1d

2. How are you feeling? today I feel like utter crap. Thinking about anything other than saltines makes me want to puke.

3. Anyone have an appointment this week? 18 days...

4. Rants/Raves/Randoms (ETA) I don't remember if I posted this yesterday or not (dang pregnancy brain) but my entire work knows now. The nausea is at a point where I am walking away from my desk a lot in fear of actually throwing up and I did not want rumors to start.

5. GTKY: What is your favorite nursery rhyme? 3 blind mice. My step-dad sang it to my niece all the time before he passed away.

1. 3w6d!
2. Feeling alright but hate my prenatal vitamins.  That mixed with the moldy fruit I found in the fridge= almost barfing.
3. Go for my second blood draw tomorrow morning.
4. My son goes for his 1 year vaccines today and I hate them.  I feel so bad for him everytime.
5. We sing a lot of twinkle twinkle, the ABC's, 5 green and speckled frogs, On top of spaghetti, and 5 little ducks!

@saphiresweetie88 You forgot to add 'Grad' into the title!

1. How far along are you?  4w3d

2. How are you feeling? Not too bad. My stomach constantly feels like it’s in knots, but no real nausea yet. I would love to be able to sleep past 6:00 though.

3. Anyone have an appointment this week? Nope, first one on Nov. 22!

4. Rants/Raves/Randoms 

I’m having a hard time getting work done when all I want to do is look up various pregnancy/baby information!

5. GTKY: What is your favorite nursery rhyme? I’d have to think about this, but for now I’ll say rock-a-bye baby.

1. How far along are you?  6w3d

2. How are you feeling? Not too bad today, but yesterday was REALLY BAD. I only vomited first thing in the morning but I had to wear the ReliefBand turned up to 4 all day to be functional and I wasn't able to eat.

3. Anyone have an appointment this week? I had an annual exam today with my "old" obgyn practice, and nothing I heard or saw would make me want to go back to them. I even asked for a flu shot and they said no bc I'm not registered as an OB patient until I have my 8 wk appointment. 

4. Rants/Raves/Randoms  See above about the flu shot!!! Then I went to Rite Aid and waited there and they wouldn't take my insurance! So I was 2 hrs late to work for nothing.

5. GTKY: What is your favorite nursery rhyme? I'm really not into kid stuff, so I don't even know any! lol 

SaphireSweetie88

@MrsN092714 - Thanks! I fixed it


1. How far along are you? 5 weeks

2. How are you feeling? Better than I was yesterday but not as good as I would like to be right now.

3. Anyone have an appointment this week? I have an appointment for the 2nd blood test tomorrow

4. Rants/Raves/Randoms? I hate this waiting for the results.

5. GTKY: What is your favorite nursery rhyme? It's not a nursery rhyme but my mom would always sing Tura Lura when I was little https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6roPtWeraSw  The words start about 53 seconds or so into the video

mrs35

1. How far along are you? 4w6d

2. How are you feeling? SO TIRED. Starting to feel little waves of nausea. 

3. Anyone have an appointment this week? Not for another 3.5 weeks

4. Rants/Raves/Randoms 
I am a teacher and we have parent teacher conferences tonight. I'm really hoping I don't fall asleep between meetings! 

5. GTKY: What is your favorite nursery rhyme? I'm going to need to brush up on these.. 

pepper16-2

@GlitterFish Wow, that is SUCH a pain! I'm so sorry!! Have you made plans for another OB? 

1. How far along are you? 4 weeks 4 days

2. How are you feeling? Mostly fine - tired, bloated, a little crampy, and my nipples are super sore. Acne has dissipated over the past two days (famous last words) which has been nice.  

3. Anyone have an appointment this week? Not until 12/1 - blah.

4. Rants/Raves/Randoms These 5 weeks from BFP to first appointment feel like such a brutal waiting game and I am just SO EXCITED about the prospect of the second trimester. I normally hate wishing for time to pass quickly, but right now I just feel like Christmas cannot come soon enough!!! 

5. GTKY: What is your favorite nursery rhyme? Not a nursery rhyme, but I always sing "But I don't want to live on the moon" from Sesame Street to my niece and nephew.

realgoodthing

1. How far along are you? 4+6

2. How are you feeling? Pretty okay! Still just mildly nauseated if I don't eat for a while, little dizzy, boobs fairly sore, but nothing too crazy. Entertaining the crazy dream that maybe I'll just have an easy pregnancy this time around...until I remember I'm still so early!

3. Anyone have an appointment this week? Nope - just waiting for my doctor to call me back about progesterone supplements.

4. Rants/Raves/Randoms: Without getting too much into politics, since this is not the place, just feeling generally despondent post-Tuesday, but the pregnancy is a nice ray of light!

5. GTKY: What is your favorite nursery rhyme? My grandma used to sing me one in German called "Schlaf, Kindlein, Schlaf" so I think that's my sentimental fave!

glitterfish-2

@Pepper16 Yes, I have an appt with the "new" OB on 11/22 at 8 weeks. She had been on maternity leave so I contacted my old practice to start setting up IUI, but they would only make the annual appt at that time, and I got KU in between!

pepper16-2

@GlitterFish Ah! Got it! Very glad you have the appointment with the new OB coming up! 

@leilac I know EXACTLY what you mean and won't get into here either, but here's a bit of positivity that's helping me: 7 Women Who Made History in Election 2016 

theweevee

1. How far along are you? 6w, 6d

2. How are you feeling?  Pretty good.  I have random severe stomach cramps that suck, but it's only happened two or three times since bfp.  A friend I haven't seen in years asked me if I was pregnant at lunch.  The bloat is real!

3. Anyone have an appointment this week?  Next Wednesday!

4. Rants/Raves/Randoms. See rude friend and pregnancy bloat.  Hmph.

5. GTKY: What is your favorite nursery rhyme?  The only one I could think of is twinkle twinkle.  I'll have to brush up on these!

TalesOfASocialIntrovert

1. How far along are you? 5 + 5

2. How are you feeling? Pretty blah most of the time. I had severe cramping late last week and mid this week but it was determined to be nothing of concern. I have waves of nausea, lots of headaches, and back pain. Also, this bloat is no joke!

3. Anyone have an appointment this week? Had an US Wednesday and got to see the gestational sac and yolk sac. We go back in 2 weeks for a viability US.

4. Rants/Raves/Randoms: I'm too tired! My rant is that I want to be in bed, sleeping soundly. Is that too much to ask for?? (Evidently yes, bc pregnancy means you don't sleep. Ever.)

5. GTKY: What is your favorite nursery rhyme? Not really nursery rhymes but I like "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" and "You Are My Sunshine".

mrs35

@Cait32 yes! And then I immediately came and checked all the new intros here to make sure she hadn't intro'd. 

thatcma

@cait32 and @mrs35 that individual did intro here...

mrs35

@osucma I must have missed it! I was half sleeping.. 

TalesOfASocialIntrovert

@osucma @mrs35 and @Cait32 I saw that too! Crazy!! And I totally wanted to chime in when they said to just head straight on over the her BMB. Nooooooooo!!!! No drama yet hough so there's still hope for us here, right?

Literally my thoughts exactly.

SaphireSweetie88

She did intro here but let's give her a chance before we pass negative judgement. Everyone makes mistakes when posting on TB (and in the TTGP board) - I know I made a couple mistakes and I am glad that all was forgiven and we all moved past it. Let's do the same here unless it happens again??

Itsnotyourturn

@SaphireSweetie88, look I get what your saying but here's the deal I haven't been active on TTGP for 9ish months and it would have been really odd for me to go over there and say "heeeeeyy look at me I'm ku!".  Like I would have felt odd in my skin. I feel odd even lurking in this thread. So someone who was active five years ago and claimed to lurk does not seem like an innocent mistake.  However my hang up is really in her response.  "Sorry, I guess I could have lied" was so discrespectful after being so cruel, because she didn't need to lie, she could have just not posted at all and came on over here. Her post was crappy and then extra crappiness of the backhanded non-apology I think would make most people want to keep their distance.  
Edit for grammar

SaphireSweetie88

@Cait32  @Itsnotyourturn - I went back and looked. My previous post was posted here before I saw her additional comments. I can now see more of where you're coming from.

@Itsnotyourturn - Don't feel awkward lurking on this thread.

spk112

I am so glad that somebody here posted about this. I saw that post yesterday and it bothered me and left a bad taste in my mouth.

SaphireSweetie88

@spk112 - I had a bad taste in my mouth too when I saw the following replies when I went and looked again so i couldn't help myself from commenting....

thatcma

@saphiresweetie88 I saw your post and you said everything I was thinking.

ETA spelling error

SaphireSweetie88

@osucma - Thanks! She got me worked up lol

BabyBump2

Oops. Posted in the wrong thread. 

longhairdntcare

*lurking*

her original post (while completely insensitive), didn't necessarily come off as malicious to me. Ignorant and immature, for sure. But her second post and the MC comment, completely uncalled for and inexcusable. 

pepper16-2

Have you all checked out the TTGP grad thread today?! So many exciting posts!! YAYAYAY!! 

SaphireSweetie88

@Pepper16

I saw it earlier! I was so excited

thatcma

Just looked now and am so STOKED!

JAM85

1. How far along are you? 7w1d

2. How are you feeling? Eh ok. I am having some horrendous "morning sickness" and food aversions. Basically all food aversion. Breasts are huge now too and doing the funny little things they did early last time with DD. I'm still recovering from bronchitis so hard to tell which tiredness is from which 

3. Anyone have an appointment this week? Nope next Tuesday!!

4. Rants/Raves/Randoms Apparently I need to check out the TTGP grad thread this month. I was only active 2 months on the group and only in the TWW so hopefully it's ok if I'm here!

ETA: I still remember the 2 drive by pee sticks while I was there and then they claimed they had been lurking when there was no way they could have and still done that 

5. GTKY: What is your favorite nursery rhyme? Huh I don't know I guess itsy bitsy spider? Mostly because DD is so cute singing it with the motions 

MrsN092714

So excited for all the TTGP grads moving over today!  Yay!

JAM85

Holy cow I got caught up on that explosive thread and how insensitive of her. How in the hell can you think that is ok and then to continue to make disparaging and innappropriate comments....

but welcome to all the new TTGP grads!!

SaphireSweetie88

@JAM85

I noticed she hasn't posted here since all that either lol

JAM85

@SaphireSweetie88 I don't know how she can after that and knowing we know all about it. I agree with @Rae. The first post was just stupidity and ignorance though still extremely insensitive and hurtful and the follow up response was just rediculous 

SaphireSweetie88

@JAM85 - I don't know how she could either but we've seen it happen before.

@Cait32 - If she does, she'll likely get the same response
