November Mom Check-In

kelly2983 · February 2011

So I will start off the check-in, but we should all take turns until someone officially volunteers to do it or until we get our real board up & running!

- How are you feeling? Any symptoms?

- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)?

- Have you made any appointments yet?

kelly2983 · February 2011

- How are you feeling? Any symptoms? I'm bloated and I can't stop peeing!! I drank 3 glasses of water today at work & had to pee 5 times. I also have mild cramps every so often but nothing bad.

- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)? My sister

- Have you made any appointments yet? I have a blood test scheduled for next Wednesday.

Excited to get to know everyone

AgWife83 · February 2011

Weekly check-ins sound good to me!

- How are you feeling? Any symptoms? Bloat. Really painful cramps at night and randomly throughout the day.

- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)? My bro and his wife.

- Have you made any appointments yet? Yep! I have an 8 week nurse appointment, and a 12 week Dr. appointment. Fingers crossed that everything goes well until then!

How are you feeling?

Pretty good. No morning sickness, no aversions. I feel a pain on my bladder- almost like I'm getting a bladder infection. Super bloated and occasionally gassy. :-) My boobs hurt too.

Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)?

We told my husband's best friend and my mom.

Have you made appointments yet?

Yup! I have my first appointment on March 15th to see how I'm doing. They didn't seem to think I needed a blood test.

Hi everyone! I think it's hilarious that we had to take over the 2012 board.

How are you feeling? Any symptoms? I feel totally fine. Very very slight cramping every once in a while and had heartburn for about 5 min but that's it so far.

- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)? I told my best friend in Philly and then called my other bestie in Houston! We are telling the parents this weekend. Can't wait!

- Have you made any appointments yet? Just made my first prenatal appointment today. They took my LMP and then made it 8 weeks from then but that makes me nervous because I know I ovulated on day 19 so I'm not sure what to expect on the ultrasound at this point.

MooneyDee · February 2011

How are you feeling? My boobs are really sore and I feel bloated. I've been having lots of cramping and backache...which of course has me nervous.

Who is the first person you are going to tell? It will probably be my parents or my mil. They are all coming in for ds's 4th birthday next month so we'll see who gets here first. I will be about 8 weeks then.

Have you made any appointments yet? No. I had a missed mc in August so I'm going to hold out till I am about 6 weeks, then I'll call.

GL to everyone!!!

LesRN · February 2011

- How are you feeling? Any symptoms? Cramping and bloated. My stomach feels a bit off too. Like food just doesn't sit well.

- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)? We're going to tell the grandparents after our first sono if everything is OK. I'm thinking I may let it slip to my BFF before then.

- Have you made any appointments yet? 2nd Beta was done today and I have a sono scheduled for March 11th!

BabyChic1104 · February 2011

Hello! I am 3w5days, due November 4th!

- How are you feeling? Any symptoms? I am feeling ok, kinda tired, minor cramping, nipple tenderness, horrible bloating, gassy

- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)? another friend that has been TTC and I already told my boss

- Have you made any appointments yet? yep, first appt is march 7!

Can someone please explain to me how to make a siggy and put the little ticker in it?

KateCollins11 · February 2011

- How are you feeling? Any symptoms? SOOOOOO incredibly excited/nervous...praying every minute that my baby is staying safe in there. VERY bloated and having mild cramps.

- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)? My parents.

- Have you made any appointments yet? Yep! I go in for my screening appointment on my birthday! (March 8)

MrsNash37212 · February 2011

Thanks for doing this for now, Kelly!

- How are you feeling? Any symptoms? Feeling pretty good so far... a little mild cramping, a little bloat... sore boobs come and go

- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)? I sent a picture of our BFP to my parents and sister about 10 minutes after I told DH

- Have you made any appointments yet? Yes, supposed to go in at 6 weeks. I'm worried about not seeing the heartbeat though, so might make up an excuse to push it to 6w, 3d

doraface · February 2011

- How are you feeling? Any symptoms?I feel pretty good. Sore boobs that have gotten bigger already, some cramping, peeing all the time. - Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)?I told 2 of my best friends, the 3 of us are L&D RNs so I just had to tell them! And they both have kids so I wanted to be able to ask them questions. I'm going to try to wait a little longer to tell the fam. My due date (for now) is my brother's birthday so I'm going to try to work that in somehow. - Have you made any appointments yet?Not yet. I work with my OB and talked to her a little already. Going to call tomorrow and make it for somewhere between 6 and 8 weeks, depending on DH's schedule.

xnbride · February 2011

- How are you feeling? Any symptoms? A nervous wreck. That about sums it up. SLIGHTLY tender boobs, some dizziness, some appetite changes but nothing yet.

- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)? Probably my parents and then my girlfriends.

- Have you made any appointments yet? No. I am too scared to. I do need to call in a prescription because I am pretty sure I have a yeast infection so I will be forced to talk to them. I like to avoid it as long as possible. I get PTSD when I go in for visits. I seriously had to take an anti anxiety pill for my m/c follow up and annual pap smear last time!

MOMMYINNY · February 2011

How are you feeling? Any symptoms? Nothing really. Sorta heavy feeling but thats about it.

- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)? Our parents but only after we see a heart beat (in a previous pregnancy no heart beat was detected sp it makes us cautious)

- Have you made any appointments yet? I go in for a beta tomorrow and probably another on monday at my RE's office. They will want weekly US from 5-8 weeks.... im going to waive the one at 5 weeks - I dont want to go in until a HB can be detected.

jenbean1 · February 2011

Good Morning Ladies! So glad to be hear on the November board, even if it's 2012!

- How are you feeling? Any symptoms? Boobs have been very tender the last few days. Have had mild cramping, but it is getting better! I feel like I am peeing ALL THE TIME! So far no morning sickness to speak of (fingers crossed.)

- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)? It is killing me that my mom doesn't know yet. We talk almost everyday, and I so afraid it is just going to slip out! Keep telling myself that it will be better face-to-face and that this wait will be worth it.

- Have you made any appointments yet? The earliest my doctor wants to see me is the end of March (29th)!! I hope I can wait that long.

Aww, I'm sorry to hear about your anxiety. I have bad anxiety normally about riding in cars (when other people are driving) so I know what anxiety feels like (although I don't know how it feels related to miscarrying) & it's horrible! I wish you the best & hope everything turns out well for you

I know what you mean, I talk to my sister & my Mom every day and it's been so hard not to say it. But, I really want to see their faces when we say it in person so I'm really trying to hold out another week or two. My sister is very observant though and if she notices me acting different she will call me on it, so I'm trying to avoid her! haha.

AggieKim · February 2011

How are you feeling? Any symptoms? Great! Not anything special...gas, backne, hungry all the time, and peeing a little more frequentlyWho is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)? Well, my mom, dad, and MIL know...as does everyone else at work because I've had to refuse a patient because of his sickness and me not wanting to be exposed. So I give up...I'm telling everyone.Have you made any appointments yet? My 8 week OB appt is made! My annual had been made for the week prior lol.

StarBurstL77 · February 2011

Thanks for doing this!

- How are you feeling? Any symptoms?I'm feeling great! Slight nausea in the evenings and slightly sore BB's. But that's it.

I'll take it ALL though. The symptoms come and go. I hope that is normal. I always start to worry when the symptoms are gone.- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)? We have told our families and close friends, that's pretty much it, right?

We will tell everyone after our 8 week ultrasound. - Have you made any appointments yet?Yes. Our 8 week ultrasound is March 23rd. I can't believe we have to wait that long!

awww....i love all the bulldogs!! I have two! I'll have to figure out how to get a pic of them on here too!

thundercatsarego · February 2011

- How are you feeling? Any symptoms?

I am feeling pretty normal! I do have a little cramping and the ladies are sore, but otherwise not much going on in the symptoms department!

- Who is the first person you're going to tell (other than your husband)?

I told two of my closest friends so far. We want to wait until after the first ultrasound to tell everyone! We were thinking of waiting longer but we are both in a wedding and thought there would be many questions when I was not drinking at the bachelorette party!

- Have you made any appointments yet?

I had my first beta today. I was thinking I will wait until I hear back before I make my first appointment.
