Groxb · February 2014

Yay! I've been waiting all day and almost posted one myself, but pregnancy lazy took over. Thanks for posting @MMason12!

How many weeks/ what fruit are you: 12 - A PLUM! "I feel it in my plums!"

(If this is totally random to you - please google "Will Ferrell plums"...but NSFW

How are you feeling this week? Yep- still moody and tired. A little feverish today, but I really can't complain.

Upcoming appointments or milestones: Next apt March 3!

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show? We LOVED watching Breaking Bad together. Right now, my favorites are Downton Abbey and Nashville.

MMason12 · February 2014

How many weeks/ what fruit are you: 8/Raspberry

How are you feeling this week?: Pretty miserable for the most part. I have thrown up three time this week (I know, chump change to some ladies here) which hasn't really been bad. Other than that I am so bloated and constipated it isn't even funny. It's painful, really. Yesterday I was so bloated I looked 25+ weeks pregnant. The constant cramping I was having has seemed to go away, but I still get these "stretching cramps" every once in a while.

Upcoming appointments or milestones: We had our nurse in-take appointment this morning, boring, lol!! Our next ultrasound is Wednesday. I am insanely nervous. This is about the same time we find out with our last pregnancy that we lost our LO, so I am on pins and needles. If all goes well I will be able to breathe a lot easier.

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show?: I would have to say my favorite show is Survivor and my husband's favorite show is hands-down The Walking Dead.

[Deleted User] · February 2014

Thanks for starting the thread @MMason12

. How is your dad doing? I hope he didn't need chemo after all.

How many weeks/ what fruit are you: 9w/olive

How are you feeling this week? The m/s seems to be getting better, but having trouble sleeping and feeling constipated are the worst. Apparently my daily fiber one bars aren't working anymore :-(

Upcoming appointments or milestones: Last week's appointment went well with the RE, got to see the HB again and there was noticeable growth compared to the week before. The RE wanted to see me one last time, so I have what will hopefully be my last appointment with him tomorrow. I got the okay to schedule an appointment with my regular ob/gyn, so I will be seeing her next week if all goes well at tomorrow's appointment.

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show? My favorite show is The Big Bang Theory, and my DH loves so many TV shows it's hard to pick... probably a tie between Sons of Anarchy and The Walking Dead.

How many weeks/ what fruit are you: 12 weeks - yay for a plum!

How are you feeling this week? I'm feeling ok, just still tired. We had a crazy weekend, and I just crashed yesterday, so I'm feeling a bit better.

Upcoming appointments or milestones: Almost out of 1st tri! Also, I told DH he needs to decide by the end of this week if we are going to move ahead with the midwife or stick with an ob practice. He knows what I want, it is up to him what he feels comfortable with.

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show? I'm watching Downton Abbey right now, and basically everything on ABC Family lol. I love Scandal too, so I am waiting for that to come back. DH likes things on History and Science channel, and he has been watching Olympic hockey. And we watch Modern Family together.

@Irisheyes1247 - How did your ultrasound go last week? The ultrasound was really good!! Everything is looking great, a nice strong heartbeat and baby is measuring right on track with my dates (which I am actually a little surprised about given that I have a longer cycle). Also, DH and the girls came with me and dd1 was so sweet - she was concerned about me when the lady was doing the u/s, so she wanted to hold my hand, and kept giving me kisses. Adorable

bookqueen · February 2014

My appointment didn't go well. We went in and when she did our ultrasound, she couldnmt get a great look at the baby because she didn't have the vaginal u/s wand, only the abdominal wand. She said it looked like the baby was small and saw a "flicker" but couldn't find the heartbeat. She switched over the blood flow screen and didn't see anything toward the baby so she said she was 90% sure it's a m/c.. I went for an HCG blood draw after the appointment, I go for another blood draw on Thursday and another u/s on Friday. I'm just REALLY hoping it was a bad view of the baby and we get good news..

ETA: I've had light cramping but not enough to think I was having a m/c and no blood so far. And I'm still having the same pregnancy symptoms..

stephanie123456 · February 2014

@MMason12 : I was not able to avoid the cold and symptoms hit a peak at about Wednesday, and I tried to tough it through without using anything (because I'm a crazy person and don't want to hurt baby) and gave up and emailed doctor and she gave me a list of okay meds so I had the DH run out and get cough drops and Robitussin. Work sent me home on Friday because I was just miserable and I'm been recuperating since. Such a romantic Valentine's Day weekend... I'm also writing this as my favorite romantic movie is on

How many weeks/ what fruit are you: 10-11 weeks / small prune-lime

How are you feeling this week? Other than remaining cold symptoms, pretty okay. Very slight round ligament pain occasionally. Getting really tired of the acne though. I've never had this many breakouts so often. Also feeling fat and bloated.

Upcoming appointments or milestones: Next appointments are NT scan and OB, which they scheduled on the same day. Also got my doppler last week on Tuesday and I have been listening to my little bean's heartbeat at least once nightly.

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show? I have so many favorites... I love Reign. DH and I like to watch GoT, True Detective, Hannibal, Walking Dead, Sleepy Hollow, Revolution, Grimm, and Agents of SHIELD.

MMason12 · February 2014

@Groxb - I was going to do it sooner, but exhaustion took over earlier. I was wiped out and couldn't even keep my eyes open, so I know how you feel!

@AnnieBN - Thank you! He's doing pretty actually. His surgery was last Monday where they removed the spot on his lung. During surgery they tested the spot and it did indeed come back cancerous, so they removed the entire lower lobe of his left lung, along with all but one lymph nodes in the area. The one they left sits on his heart and then his diaphragm, and the surgeon didn't feel he could remove that one without causing damage to his diaphragm and he didn't want to do that. It took 4 days to get the pathology report back on his lymph nodes, which we got on Friday. All his lymph nodes came back clean!! YAY!! So, as of right now he does not need chemo (thank Godness!) and just has to be monitored super close for the next 5 years. We all feel so blessed they found the spot 100% on accident during a messed up CT scan checking his liver.

@Brookqueen - Oh, I am so sorry!!!! I know how heart breaking bad ultrasound appointments are. My fingers, toes, and every other body part is crossed for you along with my prayers!

AccioPizza · February 2014

12 weeks today!! A plum!

Knock on wood, I'm feeling pretty good! Some headaches lately, which I got at lot in second tri last time around. Better than puking all the time :-)

I had a great appointment Friday, heard a heart beat! We announced this weekend to all our extended families and went Facebook official today! Yay!!!

Our favorite show right now is House of cards, which we only haven't finished because we're too old and tired to stay up super late watching LOL. I love Modern Family, and my husband still loves the Walking Dead, though I'm kinda over it.

Really sorry you are dealing with this. I'll have everything crossed that Friday brings happy news!!

[Deleted User] · February 2014

@MMason12- I'm glad to hear that your dad is doing well, and all of the results have been encouraging. FX for a speedy recovery.

@Brookqueen- I'm so sorry, I'm still traumatized from my bad ultrasound appointments from my other pregnancies and the waiting period is definitely the worst part :-(. I hope that your little bean was just too small to be seen via the abdominal wand, and that things look much better this Friday. ((Hugs))

cmumama · February 2014

Thanks for posting!

My appt on Friday was great! Little one is measuring right on track and is looking great. H/b was 180.

I'm 9 weeks today.

I'm exhausted and very irritable. My husband has been wonderful and took care of everything all weekend while I laid around not feeling very well.

My next appt is march 11. Trying to decide if I want the NT scan. I'm leaning towards no. I didn't do it with my boys either.

We love the walking dead, breaking bad, homeland, revolution and the following together. I love big bang theory and Greys anatomy.

froglegs04 · February 2014

How many weeks/ what fruit are you: 9 weeks/olive

How are you feeling this week? Pretty decent, some mild nausea so I can't complain, but am ready for my boobs to stop with the soreness already.

Upcoming appointments or milestones: March 7 is my next u/s...seems like forever!

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show? I like Top Chef and Grey's Anatomy, and DH's favorite is The Walking Dead and anything having to do with digging for gold in the Klondike.

formerwigirl · February 2014

I don't normally look forward to mondays so this check in makes my mondays better. Thank you ladies.

How many weeks/ what fruit are you: I am 9 weeks/Olive

How are you feeling this week? Think I've gotten over the worst of this cold. It seems to be on its way out. Other than that trying not to worry be cause I haven't had too many pregnancy symptoms (I know I should be grateful) but soo worried about miscarriage.

Upcoming appointments or milestones: OB appt on Thursday. I am hoping we get to at least hear the heartbeat to calm my nerves.

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show? We both have our own shows but we always watch SHIELD, Bones, and Big Bang Theory together.

Hugs to those that need them. Hope everyone has a great week.

aveyc1986 · February 2014

How many weeks/ what fruit are you:
I am almost 9 weeks (8w5d)/ Olive

How are you feeling this week?
Same as previous weeks. I got a prescription for zig ran which has been a godsend. I have been able to enjoyably eat... Most notable this last week has been the roller coaster of emotions

Upcoming appointments or milestones:
Appointment last week went wonderful! Saw LO and was measuring 3 days behind what I had previously calculated. DH got a video I the US and was able to the little heart beat... Amazing!

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show? I love watching Once Upon A Time... Husband is more into Walking Dead. Quite opposite.

bookqueen · February 2014

Thanks for the prayers and well wishes everyone, I'm really gonna need them for Friday.

Thinking about you every day

kayemgi · February 2014

@MMason12 thanks for posting the thread!

@kateitho I hope you are ok!

My appointment last week was good. The doc had trouble getting good measurements, but wasn't upset by the measurement she did get -- which was 7w3d. According to my cycle I should have been 8w2d which puts me 6d behind, but I think I ovulated at least three days later than my cycle indicates, which is only 3 days behind, so I don't feel too worried. She got a great view of the heartbeat, which was strong.

How many weeks/ what fruit are you: 9 weeks technically now but possibly losing a few days.

How are you feeling this week? Much sicker, especially in the evenings, and very very tired. Also hungry, which is unfortunate because everything tastes like sawdust and a lot of things I used to like are making my stomach turn.

Upcoming appointments or milestones: Another ultrasound Wednesday to try to get better measurements and get a real due date.

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show? Hmm I'm having trouble remembering since everything is on hiatus! I love The Good Wife and New Girl. DH loved Sleepy Hollow and is excited Walking Dead is back. We both love Parks & Rec.

@bookqueen Thinking of you, hope everything goes well at your appointment this Friday. Good luck.

kateitho · February 2014

12 weeks/ plum

I'm feeling pretty good. Random bouts of nausea, but even that's pretty mild.

I go in on Monday for my 13 week appointment! I'm excited! I got a Doppler this week, and have mastered finding LO's heartbeat, and we've passed all of our loss milestones!

My favorite show is the Walking Dead. DH's is Ghost Hunters.

@MMason12 Thank you so much for posting this! I overslept yesterday, then had a crazy day at work, ordered pizza, watched Monsters University, and went to bed!

Irisheyes1247 · February 2014

@bookqueen - I am thinking of you, hope it was just a bad view and fx for good news

kateitho · February 2014

@Grace0609 Stay with us! There's no hard and fast rule that you have to change to Wednesday!

Telly21182 · February 2014

My question: Yep, I started yoga and it helped. I think. Or it could be that I've been lazy after work and haven't been doing as much. I think a lot of my pain was from my after work routine. Get home at 4:50, change, potty and then start working out (elliptical) at 5:00. 5:40 I'd wash DS stuff from lunch, and straighten up and pack the next days lunch. Then around 6-6:15 I'd start dinner while trying to entertain DS while DH was down stairs working out. I switched my routine to cut out straightening up and to do yoga every other day instead of the elliptical everyday! We still need to eat after all!

How many weeks/ what fruit are you: 10 weeks, no idea what fruit that is (I'll know when I post and see my siggy!)

How are you feeling this week? Feeling great. Not as queasy at night and between the yoga and less work after work I haven't had nearly as much back and hip pain!

Upcoming appointments or milestones: I'm telling my boss on Friday during my 2013 review. After the review for sure I'm anxious because she is a new boss so this is not only my first review with her, but her first ever review as a supervisor!

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show? Oh man, we watch WAY too much TV. We stick to dramas for the most part, and we will rewatch old shows over and over again. Breaking Bad and the Wire are our 2 faves. We've been watching True Detective on HBO this season and really like it. I'm so excited for Game of Thrones to start back up in April. We jsut rewatched the 3rd season to get ready for season 4. Also, we need to start season 2 of House of Cards but we had people over all weekend so we didn't get to start it yet. I'm hearing it's good though! OUr fave comedy is Arrested Development.

salsa_wifey · February 2014

How many weeks/ what fruit are you: 9 weeks, green olive

How are you feeling this week? The same - great. Bloated and my pants don't fit.

Upcoming appointments or milestones: We had our first u/s Monday and saw baby! Baby was waving and had a 167 heart rate. Everything measured perfect. We are overjoyed.

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show? We like Walking Dead and Blacklist.

How many weeks/ what fruit are you: 9 Weeks

How are you feeling this week? I was feeling okay, until DS brought home the stomach flu. Both DH and I were sick ALL weekend trying to take care of a 1 year old. Fun!

Upcoming appointments or milestones: Go for my viability/dating ultrasound Wednesday! Super pumped!

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show? Oh man. Breaking Bad, Game of Thrones, Walking Dead. We are TV addicts!

jjenkinsreid · February 2014

How many weeks/ what fruit are you: 12 Weeks - a plum!

How are you feeling this week? I'm starting to see a light at the end of the tunnel (fingers crossed). Getting more energy & spending less & less time feeling like I'm going to throw up!

Upcoming appointments or milestones: I have an appointment for my physical exam on Thursday - what will this be like? Should I bring DH along? (he loves going to all of this, so he'll probably tag along, but I don't want to get his hopes up for anything other than me having a physical). Also, almost out of the first trimester!

GTKY question: What is your favorite tv show that you enjoy watching and what is your SO/DH's favorite TV show? Ohh - DH likes Castle & Bones, I like Parenthood & New Girl (always missing Arrested Development)
