Any teachers? How are you handling Nausua during the day? My Zofran isn’t cutting it like it was, and I’m hanging by a thread today 😵‍💫

@sph97 I have Phenergan and I've had l heard the combo works best (not sure on mg and such). I'm waiting till I'm out of the first trimester to try Zofran+Phenergan.

Is anyone else cold? Like chilled all the time?

I know it's winter.  And I live where we get snow.  But there is something about the cold that I am super sensitive to it.  If I go outside, even for just a few seconds, I start to get the chills.

@cscrzldbg YES! I was wondering if I’m going crazy. I’ve been getting chilled even in the house. And I can’t stay warm at work, either. Vests help but not 100%.

@cscrzldbg any anemia? I am like this too, but I also found out I have anemia this time around.

Scheduled my anatomy scan before my husband had to travel to Japan for work.  I'll be exactly 18 weeks,  which makes me a little nervous because it's on the early side.  Anyone else have one that early? Did they see everything they needed to?

@lexilougolden last pregnancy my first was at 21 weeks and I had to have 3 more because my son was always curled up and they couldn’t get pictures of his heart. I think it mostly depends on how well baby cooperates lol! I should have known then he was gonna be so stubborn! 

lexilougolden

@sph97 good point! We'll find out how stubborn she is 😆

Got our sneak peek results today and we are having a girl. DH and I both thought it was a girl and everyone else was saying boy. We are excited!!

We just hit up the Presidents’ Day sale at Mattress firm last night and decided on a new cooling top mattress with an adjustable base. This pregnant body cannot wait until it gets here Tuesday 

sph97

That’s awesome! I’m jealous!! 

lexilougolden

@theneno1012 ahhhh. The cooling top sounds amazing.  I have no idea how I'm going to sleep (I already sleep hot) in the summer.

What is up with The Bump baby sizes? How can my baby be the size of a mug and a can of tuna on the same day. Either it’s the worlds smallest mug or the worlds largest can of tuna 🤔

I remember a couple weeks ago there were ladies that had chronic headaches.
Ive had a headache for nearly a week now and I’m over it. What did you do/are you doing? Should I start a magnesium supplement maybe?

@theneno1012 right!? a couple days ago i told my husband that baby was the size of an avocado & he asked “a large avocado or a small hass avocado?” 😂 we take it all as estimates, it’s fun, but sometimes they seem very unrealistic and kinda silly.. i remember it once said the longest side of a floppy disk - i don’t even remember the last time i ever saw a floppy disk.

@sph97 i recommend you check out @cscrzldbg’s replies on the question thread, very helpful. the essential oils on a cotton ball helped me a lot, my favorite way to ease tension headaches is to have my husband help me with pressure compressions on my eyes & the back of my head. something about his hands covering out the light & adding pressure really bring relief. usually just taking tylenol & having a small cup of coffee do the trick.

Anemia is kicking my ass these last couple days. I’m tired in my bones. And DH leaves for a business trip tomorrow so it’s a week of solo parenting on top of it.

lexilougolden

@theneno1012 I'm sorry! Strength sent to you!
