Alright ladies how are we feeling? Any appointments this week? Rants/raves or concerns? Let's hear them

QOTW: I need a good book recommendation. Are you ladies reading anything right now?

I had a big scare this morning that I'm still getting over. I'm 13 weeks today and woke up to a lot of bright red bleeding when I used the bathroom. like the entire bowl was bright red. Thankfully my dr could see me right away and the baby is doing fine but the sch they saw on the nt scan last week is bigger. The dr isn't too concerned but I'm super worried that it's growing. He told me to take it easy, no sex, no exercise etc and I can expect to bleed for a week or so. He said to come back in 2 weeks to monitor and check on the baby. ugh. I woke up SO excited about being 13 weeks and now I'm so anxious.

oh @brooklyngirl18 thats so scary! I'm glad you were able to see the baby and that doc isn't concerned. Sending lots of hugs!

@brooklyngirl18 thoughts for you! I know it's hard not to worry but try to relax and take this time to pamper yourself. Im sure this will resolve just fine.

@brooklyngirl18 that is so scary. Pregnancy throws so many curve balls at you but know that the odds are almost always on your side for things to work out just fine. 

I have been missing check-ins because I am clearly still figuring out how this all works on here! I am feeling good - we had a great NT scan and are low risk sonthat is a relief. We also got some super creepy 3D shots of the baby at 12.5 weeks a little while ago. I am always scared that things are amiss because I don't feel that pregnant, but my tummy is growing rapidly so I am trying to just relax. 

As for books, I am an avid reader!! Just downloaded The Ministry of Utmost Happiness by Arundhati Roy and Sally Rooney's Conversations with Friends. What do you like to read @SunflowerMama428?

SunflowerMama428

@LydRussell honestly I'm so all over the place with what I like to read. I like self help books, history, old English literature, poetry, drama, cheesy love stories, erotica...like if you were like what does a 50 year old grandma scholar porn star like to read, that would be my iBooks account.

@SunflowerMama428 50 year old scholar grandma porn star made me LOL thats quite a visual

@brooklyngirl18 I'm so glad to hear everything is ok!! Hang in there

AFM: we just finished our 8 day honeymoon/babymoon cruise to Greece and Italy and we're heading to Barcelona for 2 days. The flight to Greece was rough, with a lot of turbulence and little sleep. I puked twice. Since then, however, the nausea has subsided. We hit the tail end of the "Lucifer" heat wave in Europe, so I made sure to drink a ton of water. I did have cramps a few times, which always makes me nervous. My belly has definitely grown, but I can't tell how much of it is from pasta and gelato, how much is from constipation bloat, and how much is from a baby bump.... we come back to the US Tuesday night and have an appt Wednesday morning. I'm trying to enjoy the moment, but I'm really waiting for that appt....

QOTW: I just read 2 amazing books - The One-In-A-Million Boy by Monica Wood and Homegoing by Yaa Gyasi. I highly recommend both!

LydRussell

@SunflowerMama428 that sounds a little like my collection lol! I can't say I am in the mood for much erotica at the mo

@brooklyngirl18 I'm sorry to hear that but I hope it all turns out ok! I had a small bleed last week that I didn't even mention to H, and had a larger one several weeks ago.

AFM, just plugging along. As you can see in my siggy I have fibroids, and have had two surgeries to remove them, so at my NT scan last week the tech found several small (2cm) fibroids on the outside of my uterus. She said they're not in the cavity so pose no threat to the fetus, but they do mean my uterus will be large. H keeps saying my uterus is like a mogul run in skiing, and I keep pointing out that I had it all cleaned out before pregnancy, but this will just give him more fodder for the jokes...

Regarding books, I keep rereading my old favorites because I feel like every time I pick up a new one I'm disappointed. If you haven't yet, check out Sophie Kinsella's books, from the Shopaholic series to everything else. There's one called "Remember Me?" about a woman who wakes up from a head injury to find she's forgotten the last year of her life, and in the last year she completely changed everything about herself so she's the old version of herself in a completely new body/life. It's really good and funny.

Hi all. I'm new around here. Still learning how things work. I'm 15 weeks pregnant. The sex is still unknown at this point. It's my first pregnancy after struggling to get pregnant for 4 years. I'm so paranoid about everything but things are going well.
