Sunday Ticker Change 1/15

mrs_tacos

This thread is for those Bumpies whose pregnancy starts a new week on Sundays- so if your ticker shows 4+0, 5+0, 6+0 etc, this is the check in for you. If you are, say, 5+6, then your check in thread will be the Monday Ticker Change, 5+1 would be a Saturday check in.

6 weeks

How big is baby? 
a ladybug

Upcoming appointments this week? 
None this week. My first appointment is 1/23

Any new symptoms or changes? 
Metal mouth is real and annoying. Also lots of dry mouth, and a few aversions, especially to coffee and butter. I don;t know what it is, but the smell of butter makes me really sick.

Rants/Raves/Questions? 
A little rave: We had sex for the first time since our BFP, and I did't spot after! I was really worried, but I also didn't want to go 9 months without sex because of fears from past pregnancies. I'm just so relieved! 

GTKY: What are your hobbies? 
I read a lot- 120 books last year. I doubt I'll read as many this year, or in years to come, but reading is definitely my #1 hobby. I also love gardening, cooking, playing board games, and painting.

GTKY: What are your hobbies? 
I looove camping and fishing. I also like to read and cook. My husband just got me a really awesome painting set for Christmas and I'm so excited to get started painting! I don't get much time to do any of my "hobbies" tho. I've got a crazy almost one year old who takes up 99.9% of my time! I did a watercolor painting during nap time a few days ago but it looks like a preschooler painted it

Rants/Raves/Questions? I can't eat Mexican food or I'll get sick and I love Mexican food

Mood swings going like crazy. I keep getting angry over stupid things. Also super hungry all the time which is a nice change from my previous pregnancy where I lost a bunch of weight cause I had no appetite 

Rants/Raves/Questions? 
because we weren't planning on getting pregnant for a few months I hadn't been trying to quit smoking but now I am trying it's so freaking difficult. I know it's what's best for me and the baby but it's still a difficult habit to quit. Don't want to hurt my baby

GTKY: What are your hobbies? 
I like to read and watch tv shows.

@drablnd I had a terrible time quitting when I found out I was pregnant with my first! Some things that really helped me were drinking everything through straws, I think that helped keep my hands busy and was similar to putting my mouth around a cigarette. Also I would get a super ridiculously minty gum and when I wanted to smoke I would pop in a piece or two and take some deep breaths, felt similar on the lungs!

@daniellelynette my first time it was super easy to quit because every time anyone lit one around me I would throw up. I haven't gotten that lucky this time around but I'm down to a couple a day which I'm hoping to be completely done by next week
