slaven

It's Friday here in Korea so I'm starting this off and sorry I've always sucked at GTKYs:

This check-in is for those whose weeks change over today! Meaning your EDD is on November 3, 10, 17, or 24.

*If your week does not change over today, please do not post. There will be check-ins every day so everyone has a weekly check-in*

1) How many weeks are you? 
2) How are you feeling?
3) Any appointments or tests this week?
4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
5) GTKY: How are your clothes fitting?

1) How many weeks are you?  4,0
2) How are you feeling? I actually feel good. I slept in a bit though. I'm not nauseous or anything yet but also not super attracted to food at the moment.

edit to add: So DH and I were supposed to go out for dinner tonight with some people. He had to stay late at work and they all cancelled so now I'm stuck making dinner for myself and I totally cried about it. I also went and got some Sweet Mayo and Cheese Pringles....only in Korea haha
3) Any appointments or tests this week? I had my initial consultation to get referred to an OB. I should hear back from them today or I'll be making calls this afternoon.

edit to add: The nurse never put the referral in so now I have to wait until Tuesday. womp. womp. 
4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Thoughts on sex this early in pregnancy??? I really don't have a sex drive right now but I haven't heard anything against it this early and DH wants to get it while the gettins' good haha. 
5) GTKY: How are your clothes fitting? My bras are barely fitting and midrise waistbands like leggings hurt a bit.

Bump. I suppose starting a daily thread on Korean time means it'll get lost by the time it's actually Friday in the states haha.

1) How many weeks are you? 
5 weeks
2) How are you feeling?
Not too bad. Still have sore/tender bbs, some mild nausea, and am feeling more tired by the end of the day.
3) Any appointments or tests this week?
Nope!
4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
I did some yoga yesterday (through the Yoga International app...tons of prenatal/pregnancy yoga workouts) and ate a salad for lunch to try to start being healthier.
5) GTKY: How are your clothes fitting? 
I'm less bloated this week, so I'm wearing all my skinny jeans while I still can! Have switched to lacy bras to help with breast tenderness.

ETA for spelling (love auto-correct lol)

@slaven I understand there's no risk to having sex at this point (think about it -- most people wouldn't even know they're pregnant yet) but I get the worry. (tmi) We have not had sex since the BFP, because both of us have some post-IF anxiety about the pregnancy. 

@janvier112 Thanks for the tip about pregnancy yoga! I'm interested in checking it out.


1) How many weeks are you? 5 weeks

2) How are you feeling? My main symptoms have been low blood sugar headaches and stomachaches. I basically have to eat every hour or I start feeling super sick. I'm also exhausted. I slept nine hours last night and could barely wake up. I occasionally get a fleeting sore boob, only ever one boob at a time, which is bizarre. 

3) Any appointments or tests this week? six-week ultrasound at the RE's on Thursday

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Sure, any tips on how to handle the constant hunger/low blood sugar without gaining ten million pounds? I've been trying to eat healthy but I'm still eating a LOT to avoid the low blood sugar headaches.

5) GTKY: How are your clothes fitting?  No change yet!

@slaven Sex is 100% safe for all of pregnancy. Generally, the second trimester hormones cause an increase in sex drive, so if you're not in the mood right now, just tell him you'll make it up to him in a couple months.

1) How many weeks are you? 
5 weeks
2) How are you feeling?
Emotional at random things, constipated, so bloated, tired, craving random foods, and also afraid of losing another baby.
3) Any appointments or tests this week?
No
4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
My dog has gotten clingy. I think she knows what's up. Haha.
5) GTKY: How are your clothes fitting?
Um, is it too soon to wear maternity pants? Haha. Some days my jeans are more tight than others. Also, my belly looks significantly fatter than it did a week ago.

I was totally craving cheese yesterday (Friday) but all I had was vintage sharp cheddar and couldn't stand the sharp-ness so I craved a glass of OJ. Turns out our OJ is fortified with calcium so I think I need some more of that which will be interesting to get since I'm lactose intolerant.
