    Upcoming appointments: May 27th

    How are you feeling?: Meh. Some days are better than others but overall I haven’t felt great.

    Questions: Nope

    GTKY: If you could go back in time, what period would you travel to?

    I’d like to visit/experience so many different places and time periods. Number 1 place would be ancient Egypt.

    FTM/STM/STM+: FTM but have a step daughter through my husband. 

    Team Green/Pink/Blue: Teaming finding out. Hoping for a girl. 

    Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: A raspberry 

    Upcoming appointments: Patiently waiting for my first ultrasound on June 1st. I’ll be almost 11 weeks then. I wish it would hurry up. I hope it will be ok by then. I’m excited but anxious. 

    How are you feeling?: I feel great actually 😁 No issues for me over here. I just basically only have mild sore boobs, some bloat after eating and diarrhea here and there.  I’ve been lucky. 

    Rants/Raves: Excited because our country(I’m in BC, Canada) has announced yesterday that in Mid-May there releasing some of the restrictions for covid and some things are allowed to reopen back up. We’re taking things slowly which makes me happy and doing this in phases over the next few months. I think that’s best for everyone’s safety. We’re allowed to have small group gatherings of family and friends coming up too so yay maybe I can see my family again. 

    Questions: Not right now. 

    GTKY: If you could go back in time, what period would you travel to? Hmmm, tough question.  I really would like to go back in time to the Victorian era (1837-1900) I just love there big puffy dresses, crinolines, bustles and corsets. I think it’s a neat era and would be fascinating to check it out. The dresses would prob be heavy and uncomfortable but hey lol

    I also transitioned my 10 month old to one nap a day at the same time as my boys so I can get a nap in. 🤣

    Questions: 

    GTKY: If you could go back in time, what period would you travel to? Honestly, I’m okay where I’m at. I think it would be cool to travel into the future though! I just don’t care to go back into time. History was never my thing 😂

    Team Green/Pink/Blue: Mom gut says girl this time, but I guess we'll see in a few weeks. I am totally ambivalent. I love being a boy mom, and a brother would be awesome, but if I get to buy bows - I am on board with that too.  

    Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: sweet pea! 

    Upcoming appointments: Ultrasound on the 19th, and assuming it all goes well, I'll "graduate" from the RE - then another US with my ob on June 1

    How are you feeling?: Hungover, basically. Lol. Mildly queasy, tired. I had HG with my son from basically immediately to birth so I am hoping this continues. I think some of it might be I am able to take better care of myself right now being home all the time. 

    Rants/Raves: 

    Questions: Any other prior C section moms getting incision line pain?

    GTKY: If you could go back in time, what period would you travel to?

    @the_road_to_oz Yes to the incision line pain - I posted about it in the April Symptoms thread (I think) and there were a few others who have had it before.  It's a weird sensation!  It was bad last week, but I haven't noticed it so far this week.

  • @karmba thanks that’s reassuring. It’s not really like cramps, more like a tearing feeling, and seems more muscle than uterine... but I know I have adhesions- glad it’s “normalish” lol!
    Spoiler



  • @karmba yes, the scar / incision line pain is real. I find especially if I'm laying on my side or sneeze/cough. Which is great as allergies start ramping up lol.   :p
