FTM/STM/STM+: STM

Team Green/Pink/Blue/Finding Out: finding out. I hate surprises.

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: opening of a straw

Upcoming appointments: November 20th for my first OB appt

How are you feeling?: not bad still. Occasional sore boobs/nausea and feeling worn down starting mid-afternoon. Waking up around 3 am and struggling to get back to sleep.

Rants/Raves: I got almost 10 hours of sleep Saturday night. I haven’t slept like that since I found out I was pregnant. Also, we got a lot of stuff out of our spare room for bulky waste yesterday. Nesting has already started and it felt good to start making space. Unfortunately getting the rest of the stuff out requires more creative/expensive solutions.

Questions:

GTKY: What’s your guilty pleasure TV show? I actually barely watch tv. Golf? DH and I don’t play or care about the sport at all but it is relaxing to listen to and is nice to have on in the background.

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

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: Appleseed, I think 

Upcoming appointments: Dec. 10th (was told earliest they’d see me is 10 weeks 😭).

How are you feeling?: Mostly tired, but honestly I’m tired all the time anyway because I’m a stubborn nightowl and my toddler wakes up before the crack of dawn 🤦🏽‍♀️. A bit of nausea when in the car. Lots of what felt like round ligament pain the first couple weeks which freaked me out, but it seems to have gone away, whew. 

Rants/Raves: Rant: MH had breakfast duty this morning...and fed our son leftover cheesecake after his meal. He was shocked when our son then proceeded to spend the next hour running around like crazy. Rave: I was napping during this whole ordeal 😆 (I had the early AM shift with kiddo).

Questions: Did anyone else experience round ligament pain this early in pregnancy? It seems so unlikely that I’m doubting what I felt.

GTKY: What’s your guilty pleasure TV show? MH and I binge watched the Queen’s Gambit recently. Now we’re watching Emily in Paris 🤣. We keep saying it’s stupid and we’re gonna stop watching it but then we let the next episode run lol.

@navete  I’ve been having (what I think is) RLP, too. Mostly when I stand up quickly. I don’t remember this as an early symptom last time, but I also didn’t know what it was then so who knows. I wish I had some
cheesecake for energy, lol

My 1 year old is teething too. All 4 molars are coming in at once! We are giving Advil and Tylenol (staggered) to help with the pain. Poor kiddo.

@navete one of my tell tale signs of pregnancy early on is that RLP. I've had it off and on when i stand up to quickly or lay the wrong way in bed. Very interesting!

Wasn’t even connecting the dots until just now, but I had RLP last night when I turned in bed too quickly. I’m not even four weeks yet, so it seems ridiculously early to be having anything like that... but I’m not sure what else it could be!
