Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of:

Upcoming appointments: Thursday I see my OB in person.   Havent seen him in 7 weeks so I'm happy to have an in person one.

How are you feeling?:  feeling ok.  

Rants/Raves:  I'm getting abit stressed, not feeling  any movement. 

 ***TW****  I had bright red bleeding and cramping over the weekend.  I was in touch with my OB via the phone.  He wasnt concerned and attributed it likely to sex the day before.  It didnt get worse and eventually subsided but it stressed me out.  That combined with not feeling anything and not having heard or seen baby in 7 weeks makes me sooo stressed 

Questions:  anyone else rearranging rooms for little one?  My kids currently have their own rooms but my 3 and 6 year old are moving in together.  Any suggestions or advise for moms with kids that share.  

GTKY: If you could have one super power what would it be and why?  At this exact moment, xray vision to see what the hecks going on in my belly.  Haha.  Generally the power of flight.

@tiggywiggles sorry you're having such a stressful time, good that you have an appointment for Thursday - is it customary to wait 7 weeks between appointments where you are, or is that a COVID thing?  I'm not feeling movement really either but am a bit less far along than you - do you know if your placenta is anterior? That could be a reason why you haven't felt anything yet.  Also, we have to move DS out of his current bedroom into a bigger room but he won't be sharing - am also worried about the transition but I'm going to try and make it as "cool and exciting" as possible - new big brother status = new cool bedroom.  Hope he falls for it LOL.

Upcoming appointments: regular appointment next Monday

How are you feeling?: I'm feeling pretty good but not sleeping very well.

Rants/Raves: Ranting about the cold weather we're having: -14, feels like -24 with the wind chill, yikes!  Poor DS was cooped up inside all day yesterday because it was just too cold to play (and of course, bouncing off the walls)

Questions: natm

GTKY: If you could have one super power what would it be and why?  @cammie0526 this!!! Especially during COVID, we could actually see our family without worrying about catching anything during the travel!!

@tiggywiggles, I’ve actually been worried too because I had felt movement and now I haven’t felt anything at all in 1.5 weeks. ☹️ Blah. 

marikkita12

@tiggywiggles ask for an ultrasound at your appointment, it might be a sub chorionic hematoma which is what I had. I know it’s super stressful. Sending you so much love

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of:avocado 

Upcoming appointments: ob appointment on 2/8 and I need to call and schedule my anatomy scan

How are you feeling?: tired but good. The nausea is mostly gone thank goodness  

Rants/Raves: What sucks the most though is that I still can't go on walks because it triggers cramping and bleeding and for once my libido is super high and id be all about jumping my husband a bazillion times a day and I'm on pelvic rest so I'm allowed to do absolutely nothing 

Questions: natm 

GTKY: If you could have one super power what would it be and why? Teleportation as long as I can take people along with me 

tiggywiggles

@canucklehead123 thanks for the kind words of encouragement.  It's a COVID thing to be seen every other appointment until 20 weeks.  Going forward I'll be on clinic at wach appointment.  I'm not sure about placenta placement I'm sure I'll find out at my Anatomy Scan on Feb 10.  Fingers crossed your transition goes well.  Keep me posted!
@AKuzReve hopefully little one will get the big kicks coming again soon.  Its crazy worrying to get passed the first tri then worrying until movement becomes regular...then more worry.  It's a never ending cycle. 
@marikkita12 thanks for the information, I know my ob has ultrasound in his office so i will ask about this.

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: Pomegrante?

Upcoming appointments: 02/09 is my anatomy scan 

How are you feeling?: Too good. No symptoms other than headaches. I am suspicious. 

Rants/Raves: I got nothing. Life is boring. Covid sucks. I've just been eating lots of food that I haven't been able to eat in 1 year due to dietary restrictions. 

Questions: 

GTKY: If you could have one super power what would it be and why? I'd also love to teleport. I'd go to Canada and eat food nonstop to fill my pregnancy cravings. 

@tiggywiggles, it's so crazy. I hope you feel baby soon too! They're just chilling out too much haha. Soon we will be on the other side complaining of painful baby kicks. Also I am contemplating moving my son to a different room but I can't decide. I feel guilty taking him away from a room he loves so I don't know what we will do.

Team Green/Pink/Blue/Finding Out: green

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: as tall as a hershey bar

Upcoming appointments: had my check up yesterday, all good. Got to hear heartbeat which was reassuring since I haven't really felt movement yet. Level 2 ultrasound Monday. I asked what the difference was between an anatomy scan and a level 2 and Doc said since I'm delivering after I turn 35 (by exactly a month, lol) I am AMA. So a MFM doctor does most of the scan, so I will get more insight into what I'm looking at, etc. Win win I guess. 

How are you feeling?: headaches still here and there and tired, RLP and some stretching/pressure. I looked back in my pregnancy journals from my last two and it seems like I'm right on track with the same symptoms at the same time. 

Rants/Raves: Rant - my doctor is moving to just GYN at the end of March. He isn't leaving the practice so I can see him after pregnancy and all, but I was bummed to hear that. I have seen 2 of the other docs in the practice as well as the midwife (who I will most likely see from March on). 

Questions: none

GTKY: If you could have one super power what would it be and why? invisibility!

Team Green/Pink/Blue/Finding Out: We are finding out this weekend!!

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: Lemon?

Upcoming appointments: Sometime next month

How are you feeling?: Much better down to only the night dose of anti nausea meds so maybe there is light at the end of that tunnel

Rants/Raves: We are now looking at bigger houses in our neighborhood because we just don't have the space, OR we will be putting on an addition to the house and who knows when that will happen.

Questions: I know it's early but I swear I feel squirming in there for the last week.  No definite kicks but if I'm leaning on my stomach sometimes I can feel like twirling idk.  I may be nuts!

GTKY: If you could have one super power what would it be and why? I think flight!

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: a peach

Upcoming appointments: regular ob check up with afp draw next week

How are you feeling?: I’m feeling pretty good overall. I’ve been really hungry some days and I feel like if I go too long without eating I can feel my blood sugar dropping and get a little dizzy which is new for me.

Rants/Raves: Not much going on really. I got a flat tire the other day but we were able to just get it patched and it was a quick fix thankfully!

Questions: NATM

GTKY: If you could have one super power what would it be and why? I’m probably going to jump on the teleportation band wagon just because it would be so easy to see the world then! I would totally be popping over random places for dinner based on what was sounding good at the time 😂

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: a magic 8 ball apparently

Upcoming appointments: not until mid-February

How are you feeling?: Overall, pretty good. Today though, not so hot. I was super nauseous this morning and ended up puking. This afternoon I am tired, have a slight headache, and I feel sore. My post nasal drip is pretty bad because I think I have a normal winter cold on top of pregnancy post nasal drip.

Rants/Raves: First week working from home again since the spring. I forgot how hard this is with kids around lol. 

Questions: NATM

GTKY: If you could have one super power what would it be and why? To be able to snap and have a job complete.

Questions: natm

GTKY: If you could have one super power what would it be and why? Definitely teleportation. My parents live 8+ hours away and I’d love to be able to pop in for supper.

Just wanted to throw out an update.  I saw my OB today and everything is great.  Did an ultrasound to check my cervix which is as it should be, baby measuring perfectly,  no concerns and no reason he could find for the bleeding over the weekend.  I'm super relieved.  Tha is again  ladies fir all your kind words and support
