Upcoming appts: Thursday for NT scan and NIPT bloodwork! Nervous and excited!
How are you feeling?: Overall good! I think my heartburn in the evenings is returning like it did last pregnancy. It presents as nausea so it always takes me awhile to realize what it is but since the extra dose of Zantac is helping I think that’s what it is.
Rants/Raves: Rants: just work crap Raves: if all goes well at the ultrasound Thursday we will be posting on FB!
Questions:
GTKY: What are you watching on Netflix (or Hulu, etc.) right now? We are watching Great News on Netflix. We also sometimes put on Cheers which we didn’t watch when it was originally on.
Upcoming appts: wow I already have another visit coming up on 8/22! Normal OB visit.
How are you feeling?: so much better! I went running 3x last week - it is so nice to have energy back. Have a touch of nasty bms every morning but if that's my only symptom for awhile i won't complain.
Rants/Raves: Rant - I interviewed a person for my team this morning and it was really difficult because he is not a native English speaker (French). He told me his greatest accomplishment was moving to London. I wasn't super impressed. Rave - I am excited to sign DD up for dance classes on Wednesday!
Questions: ?
GTKY: What are you watching on Netflix (or Hulu, etc.) right now? We are currently watching Ozark which is basically amazing but very stressful.

@jvk2012 so funny we are also watching Cheers although we've taken a break from it for awhile. I did watch it as a kid but obviously get it more now. Diane's clothing style definitely reminds me of my grandmother - who was quite "fashionable"! I haven't heard of Great News - is that a drama?

How are you feeling?: Good. Less tired and grumpy!
Rants/Raves: Rave: Had a super fun, kid free weekend with my other BMB! Sunshine, pool time and sleep!!
Rant: Our flight home keeps getting delayed. They’re delaying the airplane every 10 minutes and it isn’t helpful. Delay it a legitimate amount of time so we can go get food....or cancel it. I’ve been sitting here for over an hour now! Ughhhhh.
Questions: Nothing.
GTKY: What are you watching on Netflix (or Hulu, etc.) right now? Just patiently waiting for the next season of The Crown!

Questions:
GTKY: What are you watching on Netflix (or Hulu, etc.) right now? Handmaids Tale, and I’m always rewatching The Office and Friends. My husband likes Succession (HBO) so I’m trying to get into that.

Questions: anyone else getting round ligament pain? I had some aches today that sound like RLP, but PGAL brain always dreads the worst.

Upcoming appts: 8/19 precerclage workup at MFM. Cerclage 8/20.
How are you feeling?: so much better. I have noticed the last few days that the nausea after I eat is going away. I hope this is the end and I never feel morning sickness again for the rest of my life.
Rants/Raves: I am just so excited to be feeling better and have gotten low risk results on NIPT.
Questions:
GTKY: What are you watching on Netflix (or Hulu, etc.) right now? Nothing right now, I think my kids might have descendants III on repeat.
Upcoming appts: tomorrow- MFM to determine type of twins and do my NIPT
How are you feeling?: still pretty crummy. Taking daily zofran but getting nauseous spells mostly early morning and evening. Tired. Anxious about my scan!
Rants/Raves: I’m off for a whole week starting tomorrow! But it won’t be all relaxation- my in laws are visiting for most of that time so we’ll be busy with them. I like my in-laws but I’ve been feeling so run down and not great that I worry about being the one going to be at 7 every night haha!
Questions: nope
GTKY: What are you watching on Netflix (or Hulu, etc.) right now? Friends. Per my husband’s request
Good news- they are di/di everyone looks perfect (NT both good, HRs 148/151) and no sign of the SCH from earlier. Doc thinks spotting could be from something like a cervical polyp but not super concerned. They’ll do a cervical length check in 4 weeks which can help evaluate for a polyp.
Sonographer says they won’t tell us genders predictions this early anymore but baby B is basically guaranteed a boy. She couldn’t tell as well for baby A but she thinks may be a girl as it looks “the opposite” to her. So we’ll see. Should have NIPT results in a week or so.
