How are you feeling?: headaches and migraines reign. Had 🤮 twice this week seems to be triggered by taking pills with water. I have asthma acting up and a cough. Ugh. Slept decently though. 

Rants/Raves: I’m already a round person, so even though I know I’m showing I feel like to others it probably just looks like I’m round. 

Questions? Anyone ever had a pregnancy massage? I have a coupon for a free massage. Not sure when to do it. I’ve never had any massages. 

Would you rather: would you rather feel too hot or too cold? I think too cold. Because I can combat the cold. But too hot I’m cranky and miserable.

@kaitykins I just had a three day headache and when I called my ob they told me to take magnesium and be along with the Tylenol and cleared up for me. Something to look into maybe? And I had a pregnancy massage with my first! It was AMAZING. I cleared it with my ob to be safe, and make sure to let the place you're going know you're pregnant, to make sure they have someone that handles pregnancy massages specifically.

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: An orange

Upcoming appointments: November 9 for pt, December 14th and 15th for 4 different appointments

How are you feeling?: Good! Nausea had let up for the most part. Now just lots of back pain and lower abdomen as things are moving around.

Rants/Raves:. She's moving! I was a little sad with my first as I had an anterior placenta so never got a ton of movement, and didn't feel it until later. This time it's posterior and I'm definitely getting the flutters. The other night I stayed awake an extra hour just to feel her.

Questions?

Would you rather: would you rather feel too hot or too cold? Cold. I can keep adding layers, I can only take off so much before I get arrested for public indecency. 😂

Estimated Due date/week: April 12/ 17+4

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: pomegranate 

Upcoming appointments: Nov 20th anatomy scan- we will find out the sex of the baby! 

How are you feeling?: really rough tbh. STILL nauseous. Now also getting sore, and just having “tough body days”. My hormones have given me some bad depression for the last 5 weeks ish. With my son it went away sooner than this so I’m patiently waiting for that… I wish I were one of those women who loves being pregnant, but its really hard on me. I’m so grateful for it but I just feel like trash 

Rants/Raves:. Rant: feeling like trash since mid August and just so tired of it. 

Rave: my son is just such a light. He’s really developing a personality as he turns into a toddler and I love to see it. 

Questions? None

Would you rather: would you rather feel too hot or too cold? Before pregnancy I’d say “too hot”. But when pregnant, being too hot makes me nauseous as hell. So too cold it is!!!

Estimated Due date/week: 4/4/24 | 19 weeks

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: Mango

Upcoming appointments: Had our anatomy scan today, doctors literal words “baby looks perfect” it was music to my ears! We were able to determine the gender, but we’re doing a reveal with family on thanksgiving.

How are you feeling?: I’ve honestly been super lucky and haven’t had any major symptoms the whole pregnancy. Some mild insomnia and nasal congestion, but overall feel really good. I still workout 2-3 days a week when I can.

Rant: I think I’m starting to feel the baby move which is exciting but my clothes are starting not to fit and finding comfortable maternity clothes for so early on has been a struggle. It’s either nothing or full blown pregnant belly and I feel like there aren’t enough clothes for that in between awkward stage. I look like I’m just super bloated and not pregnant.

Questions?

Would you rather: would you rather feel too hot or too cold? Definitely too cold. I can always put more clothes on to warm up.

Estimated Due date/week: April 30, 15w2d

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: an orange

Upcoming appointments: next Friday! Anatomy scan mid December 

How are you feeling?: I have realized I need to just keep consistently taking B6 and unisom. Every time I start to feel better and I think it because I’m in the second trimester, I realize it was actually the B6 doing the trick…. Sooo I’m trying my best to be consistent with it so I’m not so miserable! 

Rants/Raves:. I was so not ready for daylight savings time and losing the evening sunlight.

Questions?

Would you rather: would you rather feel too hot or too cold? Hmmm, I think I’m overthinking this 😂 I want to say I can bundle up but I hate being cold so maybe too hot? As long as there is a body of water around to swim I’ll be good!
