    FTM/STM/TTM+: 6TM

    Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: blue💙

    Upcoming Appointments: AS on the 12th

    How are you feeling? (Cravings/Symptoms): I don't really have any symptoms. I really don't even feel pregnant these days. 

    Rants/Raves: I haven't felt much movement in the last several days. I know it is because I am moving around all day packing stuff but it is still nerve wracking. I know he is fine because I have been checking his HB on the doppler every day. I also woke up with a sore throat. 😑 So now I'm sick and really don't have time to rest because I'm moving next week and half my house isnt packed. Plus I have to deal with the buyers coming over today to take measurements of the living room. I'm giving them 30 minutes to do what they need to do and then I'm kicking them out. 

    Questions: 

    GTKY: Fun fact! Give us a random fun fact about yourself. I danced for almost 20 years. I actually have reoccurring dreams that I'm on stage performing and I have completely forgotten my dance. I actually had that dream last night. 

    @gumby22c I have moved a lot in the last 10 years. Basically staying in one place for 2-3 years and then moving completely across the country.

    Baby is the size of a(n): mango or hot dog or a crepe

    FTM/STM/TTM+: STM

    Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: Pink

    Upcoming Appointments: Monday 6/17 for a/s

    How are you feeling? (Cravings/Symptoms): still just largely exhausted. I feel sore and achy already, although I was extra active this weekend so hopefully that's just a side effect from that. 

    Rants/Raves: I have a meeting today at work that I really don't want to attend... I think it is way above my pay grade and since I'm a contract employee I really don't feel comfortable attending. I'm dreading it. A rave is that for my birthday MH got me a gift certificate for a prenatal massage, so I'd like to schedule that in a couple of weeks.

    GTKY: Fun fact! Give us a random fun fact about yourself.
    Ummm... I'm kind of boring, but I guess one would be that I've run 5 marathons.

    Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: Finding out

    Upcoming Appointments: 6/17 for A/S

    How are you feeling? (Cravings/Symptoms): Pretty good. Hunger like no other. Craving coke/pepsi, which only happens during pregnancy...

    Rants/Raves: My prenatal massage was AMAZING, so much so that I scheduled another one for next month. Rant: I have a big inspection this week that I'm trying not to stress out about too much. I'm also not feeling much, if any, movement. I feel like I am here and there, but not enough to be sure. I'm just hoping all is good. 

    Questions: Maybe TMI, but does anyone else have super itchy nipples? Mine are even flaking a little. I don't remember if this happened this early in my last pregnancy or not. Any suggestions for relief? 

    GTKY: Fun fact! Give us a random fun fact about yourself. Ummm...I love giraffes, so much so that I have a tattoo of one on my ankle. It was kind of annoying with DD though because I got so much giraffe stuff at my shower. Like giraffe explosion.

    Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: pink 💕

    Upcoming Appointments: June 27 - 20w appt, July 2 - anatomy scan

    How are you feeling? (Cravings/Symptoms): Ive been craving chicken tenders with honey mustard (hard because I’m gluten intolerant) and pickled okra. Symptoms are mostly just tender breasts and irritability 🤷🏻‍♀️

    Rants/Raves: throwing up has gone down to about once a week now so that’s good

    Questions: 

    GTKY: Fun fact! Give us a random fun fact about yourself. Each of our children will have been born in different states. (NC, GA, and now KY) 
  • @gumby22c I am only just now getting my skin under control, broke out relentlessly all around my mouth for weeks. Good luck 🤞

    @dani_0921 I think the itchy nipples is probably normal and I don't think it is too early to use a nipple cream like lansinoh to stop the flakiness if you want to try to treat it.

    How are you feeling? (Cravings/Symptoms): I also have not been feeling very pregnant. I'm a little achey and still going to the bathroom 2-3x a night but other than that I'm feeling pretty great right now.  Oh, and pregnancy brain!! Lol

    Rants/Raves: My son is almost on summer vacation and I can't wait.

    Questions:

    GTKY: Fun fact! Give us a random fun fact about yourself.
    Best I can think of is that I'm left handed 🤚😂
  • @Rawa1416 our children are also born in a different places, except for us its different countries even! 😂 My son was born in Germany, and this little one in the US (GA). And future children will be even somewhere different if there are more because we wont be here long.

    Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: little boy

    Upcoming Appointments: Anatomy scan June 18th and 20 week appt on June 28th

    How are you feeling? (Cravings/Symptoms): I've been feeling a lot better - still REALLY fatigued though! I haven't vomited since LAST MONDAY! I have gagged and come close, but I've been better at taking my diclegis and upping the amount and feel like it's finally taken the edge off

    Rants/Raves: Rave: It's finally warm on the SoCal coast! It's been so chilly lately, so I'm happy about that. Rant: I have braces and am getting so tired of them. My ortho promised they'd be off before November though so fingers crossed!

    I'm a HIMYM fanatic! 
  • mc0303mc0303 member
    @gumby22c yay for turning a corner! I think I might be following you! I'm 1 week vomit free :)

    @emeraldcity1214 How cool! What kind of dance did you used to do?

    @creamcheeseplease Running 5 marathons!? That's way not boring lol 

    @dani_0921 Yes to the itchy nips!! It's so strange. Sometimes it's more pronounced than others. The other day I was at the grocery store and suddenly felt like they were on fire bc they were so itchy. 

    @Rawa1416 yes to those chicken tenders!! and pickled okra? I'm intrigued. I've never had pickled okra. 

    @ABabyMarshall I'm still peeing 2-3 times a night too and it's so annoying. I feel like I'm almost sleep walking now though. I've almost fallen asleep while peeing. lol 

    @dancer688 aw! I'm jealous of your disney adventure!! I like super close to Disneyland but have yet to go! 

    @klstone25 I feel you on the allergies - it's the worst time of the year






  • @mc0303 I did all kinds from ballet to some hip hop. Although hip hop wasn't my strongest because I just couldn't let get from all the ballet training. I would actually like to find an adult class somewhere to get back into it. I miss it so much. 
  • mc0303mc0303 member
    @emeraldcity1214 oh wow that’s so awesome! I hope you do find an adult class when you move. I always wanted to try dance and signed up for a class when I got to college, but was so out of shape that I couldn’t keep up with the first day!! Lol 
  • @emeraldcity1214 @mc0303 I did an adult ballet class when I was living in Australia! I had never taken a single dance class, and it was such good exercise, though I was easily half the age of the next youngest person (I was 20). Unfortunately, they don't offer them in my city anywhere, but I loved it!

    Upcoming Appointments: June 25 ultrasound

    How are you feeling? (Cravings/Symptoms): No cravings really, but a strong aversion to chocolate. I'm feeling good most days - heartburn every night but that's about it.

    Rants/Raves: Rave: I met with a midwife today and LOVED it! I'm definitely going to switch my primary care to her team of midwives. She made me feel so much better about everything. Rant: we went car shopping this afternoon and it's a maddening process! So many things to consider and salespeople are so hard to trust!

    GTKY: Fun fact! Give us a random fun fact about yourself

    I once did a 6 week canoe trip in Northern Ontario that was over 700km!
  • @angieeeeee thank you so much for the laugh when I read "clotheslined by banana." Also, I'm sorry you're still throwing up like that.

    Upcoming Appointments: I have to schedule my anatomy U/S

    How are you feeling? (Cravings/Symptoms): Uncomfortable....I never felt like this until i was like 32 weeks pregnant with my first two. Craving fresh cherries and chicken BBQ. 

    Rants/Raves: I'm just in a miserable mood really. I have a brother who is pretty much useless and he causes so much drama and stress in my life. Sick of it. 

    Questions: Anyone else not close to their sibling(s)?

    GTKY: Fun fact! Give us a random fun fact about yourself. Fun fact: I remember faces REALLY well. I once took this test to see if I was special and could remember faces, etc really well compared to other people and I was for sure above average. Kinda stupid, but people who do really well at that type of thing can be used in the FBI and stuff.

                                                                         Image result for i breastfed my baby 1 year
                                                                
                                                                
  • @dani_0921 I have really bad itchy nips too.. I'd second lanolin or even just vaseline or something helps.

    @angieeeeee LOL to close lined by a banana! I hope the nurse or whoever wrote that was laughing about it too.

    Upcoming Appointments: in two weeks with my midwife

    How are you feeling? (Cravings/Symptoms): same old!  I figured out my migraines are triggered by not getting a good nights sleep, so at least they’re predictable at this point and I can kind of get ahead of it with Tylenol and a cup of coffee.  I hate taking anything but I have to be with my son so it’s not an option to lay in bed to fix it like I did with his pregnancy.   

    Rants/Raves: breaking out like crazy around my chin, it’s driving me nuts.  However, she’s been moving a ton the last two days so that has made up for it!

    Questions: none 

    GTKY: Fun fact! Give us a random fun fact about yourself.  I’ve been a thousand feet up in the air in a hot air balloon and a hundred feet under the water scuba diving.  I love, love, love diving and can’t wait for my kids to be old enough to join us, but I definitely won’t be getting in a hot air balloon again 🙅🏼‍♀️
  • @xilovemybabiesx I'm not close with my brother at all. His morals and values are the complete opposite of mine and DH. He actually goes out of his way to be disrespectful around us. 
  • @mc0303 I love himym!!! And if you like okra and pickles you will love pickled okra. A friend of mine turned me on to it and now I can’t live without it!
  • mc0303mc0303 member
    @Rawa1416 YAYY!!! I'm on like my 1000x rewatch! Hehe. I always throw on an episode when nothing else is on and I end up going through the whole series all over again bc I can't stop. And I'm gonna have to try out your okra suggestion! 
  • @gumby22c hope your streak is still alive and you’re officially over the MS hump!

    @emeraldcity1214 that’s nice of you to let them come measure at all. When we bought our house I brought a tape measure to the inspection. Poor planning on their part shouldn’t inconvenience you, but maybe I’m just a B lol.

    @creamcheeseplease Hope the meeting on Monday went well, sorry that you had to go to it

    @dani_0921 yes to the itchy nips! It’s such a problem in public settings when all I want to do is scratch!

    @Rawa1416 Perdue makes some pretty good frozen gluten free chicken tenders as does wegmans if you have one nearby. But it’s also been a year since I’ve eaten gluten in any form so I’m to the point now where I may forget how good the real stuff is lol.

    @ABabyMarshall totally with you on peeing multiple times a night and pregnancy brain! It’s a real problem at work lol 

    @Dancer688 congrats on deciding on a name! And I’m super jealous of your Disney trip!

    @klstone25 congrats on team blue! I have a strong feeling I’m a having a girl as well so I will also be thrown off if it’s a boy. Still happy because I don’t care what I have but I totally get the having to adjust to the realization.

    @mc0303 I hope your streak continues! 🤞🏼

    @alaluap wow that is an amazing accomplishment

    Upcoming Appointments: June 17 for 20 week and anatomy scan 

    How are you feeling (Cravings/Symptoms): craving anything cheese related and round lineament pain is real!

    Rants/Raves: rant-I’ve been slammed at work and one of our clients just doesn’t understand that she can’t just keep moving up deadlines and expect us to drop everything else to cater to her when we’ve already agreed to a schedule. Rave- so excited to find out if we’re having a boy or girl on Monday 

    Questions: maybe tmi but does it hurt anyone else to poop? I feel like the baby is pressing on my colon or intestines or something and compressing the poop tube so it hurts coming out lol

    GTKY: Fun Fact! Give us a random fact about yourself. I once got accidentally locked in a church at night and it was super freaky
  • @kopp5988 they were only here for 15 minutes and then they never measured anything. I think my realtor told them that I am pregnant and have several small children and these kinds of interruptions are setting me back in any progress that I'm able to make. Unfortunately for them, my kids were super sick on Monday and took really long naps so they couldn't go I'm 3 of our bedrooms. Oh well. As for your poop issues, do you think you could have some hemorrhoids? I always have flare ups when pregnant and they can cause lots of discomfort. Also, are you taking a stool softener? 
  • @emeraldcity1214 so they just looked around?? Weird lol. So I’ve had hemorrhoids before after marathons and such and this feels different, it’s more internal I guess? Not sure how to describe it well. I’m not because half the time my stools are very soft (I have digestive issues from my celiac disease still even though I’ve gluten free for a year). I think i should probably just try upping my vegetable intake a but since it’s lacking right now compared to pre-pregnancy
  • @kopp5988 so far my streak is still going! 🙏
    Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker
  • @klstone25
    I’m obsessed with genealogy too!
    @mc0303 Same with the sizing! Like where is that giant artichoke in there?? Lol
    @angieeeeee Sounds like round ligament pain. It’s the ligament that supports your uterus and when pregnant it is stretched. Pressure from coughing or sneezing or standing up too quickly can cause pain. It’s normal. If it becomes really painful, talk to your OB :)

    Upcoming Appointments: 6/25 for the AS and 6/27 for a heartbeat check

    How are you feeling? (Cravings/Symptoms): So much better. I was out of work for two months with hyperemesis and went back 2 weeks ago but haven't felt "normal" until this week. Like others have mentioned, I don't even feel pregnant all the time. So thankful to be feeling well again. 

    Rants/Raves: Rave: I am a kindergarten teacher and today was the last day of school! I am so ready for summer! 

    Questions:

    GTKY: Fun fact! Give us a random fun fact about yourself. All of the grandchildren on my mom's side who have kids (7 of us) had a girl first and a boy second. So excited to find out if I will carry on the tradition!
  • @Loveleisure I’ve got a similar family “tradition” in that all the women on my moms side starting with my grandma (5 women total) have had girls first! I’m the last of this generations first born girls so it’s all on me to either carry on or break the tradition!

    Rants/Raves: so many raves! We get to have our US tomorrow and find out gender! My bday is this weekend and I’m planning on slathering on SPF and hanging out at the pool. And I’m *hoping* the US shows my placenta is in the right place and my bleed is gone (not really sure what that means though). I’ve been on pelvic rest and DH and I haven’t been able to have sex since finding out we were pregnant and this hormone crazed mama is READY 😜

    How are you feeling? (Cravings/Symptoms):  headaches, so many headaches. My lower back is starting to get sore too. But the nausea is gone and food aversion is down. My breasts are less tender, which is a relief because my son is resisting weaning.

    Rants/Raves:  I am already sick of the GD diet, but I am persisting

    Questions: am I the only one waiting until after the anatomy scan to make it "Facebook Official"?

    GTKY: Fun fact! Give us a random fun fact about yourself.

    I own a sword!

    Many years ago I learned that in Finland when you get your PhD you are presented with a top hat and a sword. I thought this was delightful and joked with my husband that when I finally defended my dissertation he had to get me a sword. Well, last year I defended and to my surprise he actually got me a sword. He contacted the company that makes them overseas and custom ordered one, it has my school crest and everything.  He got lots of good husband points for that :)
      
  • @mc0303 it has been warmer! I kind of prefer the June Gloom weather myself, but it finally feels like summer. 
  • @Rawa1416 oh dang! I should be asking you for food advice then! 
  • @drama_llama I don't announce on FB. All the important people in my life already know and I usually announce on FB when my babies are born. Once I accidentally announced because I posted a picture of me and the kids and I was extremely pregnant. I completely forgot about people not knowing. 
  • @drama_llama I won't be doing a social media announcement at all, either. But I know plenty of people who wait until 20+ weeks to do one.
  • @drama_llama I’m waiting til the anatomy scan as well.
