What’s going on this week??

Just popping in to say hi! I was camping with no cell service all weekend. I will say, in my ~22 months of being pregnant I have never missed drinking alcohol more than I did while camping. There’s really nothing like a beer by the fire after a good hike and a shower.

I have been dabbling in the what to expect board while this one is slow and man, it’s really a different kind over there…

@catem07 I’m not usually a big drinker but lately I’ve been wanting a margarita! It’s because I can’t have it that I want it 🤣 I want to try a virgin recipe I found

I made my first appts yesterday! I have two telehealth at the middle & end of September. And then I’m not seen in person until the end of October 😳 my first scan is at 12 weeks along with a visit & bloodwork (I guess I’ll do the NIPS then?) It makes me nervous because I don’t like waiting so long to know what’s going on in there! But I know it’s probably because insurance usually only allows one first tri scan (unless medically necessary) and I don’t have history of loss so it is what it is. But if I spot more or start bleeding I’ll ask to see if I can get in for an earlier scan to at least check for a HB. I’m also going to ask them at my first appt about my DD because of the randomness with my cycles & being an early ovulater. Other than that work is work and I’ve been EXHAUSTED! Like ready for bed by 8 lol

See if you can get the paperwork for your NIPT mailed to you during one of your telehealth visits so you can get it done earlier.

@catem07 that’s a good idea thank you!

Anyone doing sneak peak? I waited for NIPT last time but thought it might be fun

Sounds fun but I’d rather save the money and spend it on NIPT!
