Me: 31 DH: 36
DD (14) and DS (11) adopted from US Foster care December 2016 BFP April 24, 2018 | EDD December 29, 2018
Symptoms? I’m exhausted and still sick in the morning. Starting to feel better later in the day though! I was actually able to eat a real lunch today. I’m proud of myself.
R/R/Q We had an ultrasound appointment yesterday and the baby waved at me! I burst into tears. And we could see the little feet and counted 5 toes. It was magical. I’ve been looking at the pictures so often today. ❤️
Upcoming appointment? I’ve got my end of first trimester appointment tomorrow morning! We are doing centering, so I’m excited to meet the other moms in my cohort! Anyone else doing centering? GTKY: If you didn't have to sleep, what would you do with the extra time? Work! I work full time plus run my own business on the side. I’d take on more clients and make that money!
What is your EDD? Dec 23 or Jan 2nd. Depends on who you ask. I'm going by Jan 2nd, personally.
Symptoms? Horrifying gas pains. Like wakes me in the night I wish I was in labor because that's easier to deal with gas pains. Other than that I'm feeling like I'm into the 2nd trimester "easy" phase.
R/R/Q Rant: in law family members making poor life choices that piss me off and make me not want my kids around them so much. Rave: husband and kids (well husband and Mr. Almost 3, the baby didnt do a ton) cleaned the whole house yesterday while I was at work and my almost 3 year old also asked to sleep in his own room and did it!
Upcoming appointment? next appt is 7/5. Dating scan because nobody agrees about my due date.
@alexandraseattle admittedly I had to google what "centering" meant and that sounds like a really great way to get/stay connected particularly in the postpartum period. It seems there is only one centering program offered in my area and it's for low-income qualifying only. What a shame, that sounds like it would be a great resource for a FTM like myself without a network of other moms to relate to. On the plus side, I do start prenatal yoga this weekend so hopefully people stick around and chitchat a bit so maybe I can make mommy friends there.
EDITED TO ADD: I just had a prenatal appt this morning and asked if they had considered offering "centering" and it turns out they are starting a pilot program for it in August that I will be eligible to participate it, yay!
