Re: Weekly Check-in 6/13
I think it depends on my mood. This weekend I had the Snickers one and it really hit the spot. I also like those plain chocolate/vanilla ice cream sandwiches.
GTKY: It's summer, it's hot outside, and an ice cream truck shows up in your neighborhood. What's your go-to order when you walk up to the counter? I love the Snickers one, but the banana fudge sounds really good right now! So does the ice cream sandwich.....ok all of it!
@jennifer_louise So glad you had a great family vacation! We have one coming up in a few weeks that I am looking forward to! My stomach was not flat before and definitely have so much bloating going on that I have worn maternity shorts a couple of times. They don't stay up all the way yet, but good enough lol.
GTKY: the snickers ice cream, even though regular snickers is just ok for me the ice cream is so good.

How are you feeling?: so nauseous, all the time. It wakes me up in the middle of the night. I thought it was getting better, but I couldn’t sleep last night bcs I was so close to throwing up. Turns out I forgot my nightly unisom tablet so maybe that was doing more than I thought!
Rants/Raves: it’s been really hard for me to work while feeling so sick. I’m an oncology nurse, so my job is really physically demanding. There’s lots of smells, body fluids, watching other people throw up, and just business. I have a zofran script that has helped somewhat, but really not as much as I was hoping. It’s also just hard to eat, I have no appetite and food makes me want to yak!
Questions: will throwing up make me feel better? Im like 9/10 nauseous all day so I could easily throw up, I just hate doing it and am trying so hard to keep my food down.

Typically I go for the classic ice cream sandwich!
GTKY: Chipwich all the way!
GTKY: It's summer, it's hot outside, and an ice cream truck shows up in your neighborhood. What's your go-to order when you walk up to the counter? Ouuuuu MOOSE TRACKS ORRRRR Nutella mm
GTKY: Ice cream sandwich all the way! Even better if it's Neapolitan, but I'll take vanilla too.
@zamoraspin I 100% agree about Snickers. The candy is nowhere near my first choice but somehow the ice cream is so good!
@footdrbritt I've never heard of chocotaco but i like the sound of it.
@tryingktogku sorry YH is being less than supportive! I agree with @L1C4gal, maybe he just needs an explainer...bc you're bearing his child, he can afford some sympathy (at the very least) and some extra support during this!
@L1C4gal those cupcakes are amazing! Happy 5yr to your DD. FWIW, my DD is 5 (getting close to 6) and it's been super fun.
GTKY: It's summer, it's hot outside, and an ice cream truck shows up in your neighborhood. What's your go-to order when you walk up to the counter? Give. Me. The. Bunny Tracks. If they made a coffee version though, that would be my drug of choice 😂
GTKY: It's summer, it's hot outside, and an ice cream truck shows up in your neighborhood. What's your go-to order when you walk up to the counter? The chocolate chip cookie ice cream sandwich!!! Although right now sweets are too sweet for me

This is probably a better confession for the unpopular opinion thread, but I LOATHE ice cream and always have! The absolute only exception to this is that for the last week, I've NEEDED hot apple pie with vanilla ice cream on top. Which is weird because vanilla has always made me want to 🤮 the most of all the flavors 🤷♀️.
GTKY: I don't buy ice cream from trucks. Lately, I'm going for vanilla sundae with strawberries.

@daffodil_shoe thank you! We don’t know yet so I guess we’re team ? for now 😅
Baby is the size of a(n): blueberry
Team blue/pink/green: green, just a happy and healthy :)
Upcoming Appointments: July 24th is next ultrasound, had first July 9th and was able to see the heartbeat!
How are you feeling?: Feeling pretty well majority of the time. I am able to get up and work out in the mornings, sometimes quit nauseas after and periodically throughout the day. I have been able to manage with small multiple meals.
Rants/Raves: I have had some strange cravings like chocolate milk, nut butters, and hot dogs.
Questions: My biggest complaint is that I am intermittently constipated and bloated so much that I honestly feel I already look like I am pregnant, I am only almost 8 weeks?!?!?! Similar other symptoms like tired and sore breast as well as discharge. Strangely, my discharge lightened from what it was over the past few days and my breast don’t feel as swollen, they felt like full balloons that gravity was attacking previously. Did anyone else have this?
GTKY: It's summer, it's hot outside, and an ice cream truck shows up in your neighborhood. What's your go-to order when you walk up to the counter? Def a sherbet push pop (not shown on the picture)
On a positive note, my husband is so supportive and excited. I caught him chilling in the new rocking chair in the baby's room "just because".
