Re: **2IF Grad Check-In**
2. I have a dr appt this Thursday - it feels like it has been awhile since my last one because my June appt was moved up a week because of the doctor's schedule.
3. Feeling ok overall. It is a busy time at work plus planning for my son's second birthday party!
4. Favorite holiday is Christmas - it makes me think of hot chocolate and pies!
1. How many weeks along are you? 16w2d
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? Appointment on Thursday
3. How are you feeling lately? Pretty good I get spurts of energy, but still tired. I have major vivid dreams.
4. QOTW: what is your favorite holiday and what food do you associate with it? Probably 4th of July and New Years. For the 4th - hot dogs, for New Years - tamales.
2. Had our anatomy scan last week and it confirmed two healthy girls only measuring an ounce apart
3. Feeling sore and tired but not horrible except for some days after work.
4. Favorite holidays are Halloween and Christmas. Halloween I love all things pumpkin and Christmas I love the homemade apple pie and sugar cookies
2. Growth scan is Wednesday
3. Feeling pretty good, but starting to get uncomfortable when I sit...pressure on my bladder & ribs simultaneously
4. Christmas is my favorite. I associate Christmas morning with pancakes & monkey bread...yum !
Next appt is July 13th, glucose test then.
I feel great except for some hip pain. Luckily my chiropractor is really helping in that area.
So hard to pick just one! I guess I'll go with Christmas and I associate my Grandmas mashed potatoes with it.
1. How many weeks along are you?
6w5d
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)?
Had an ultrasound today. We have one little bean with a heartbeat flickering away. We go back to RE in 2 weeks and then graduate to a regular OB-GYN.
3. How are you feeling lately?
Tired. Hungry. Emotional. I feel some set of relief after having an ultrasound today.
4. QOTW: what is your favorite holiday and what food do you associate with it?
Probably Halloween. I know that is not a "real" holiday, but Im not really a holiday person. Home made pumpkin seeds and cider!
2. u/s yesterday, healthy little bean! Saw heart beating right away and was facing us so saw little head, arm buds, tummy, and tail w little leg buds slight lighter! More than we saw w DD at this stage so it was very exciting! Our RE graduated us and we have our first regular OB appt the 21st- and she will probably only do Doppler- boo. DD was such a troublesome pregnancy w lost twin we have an album if just her ultrasounds, this one will have just a few (fx).
3. Feeling- much better after great u/s yesterday! But I am typically super groggy morning until I feel super sick and nauseated and need nap- for dd to take one with me (she has been good sport- yesterday's was at 10 hahahaha). Then I wake up like 30 minutes later starving and nauseated bc of starving no matter if I are before nap. So I eat. Then go back to sleep until she wakes me up. Then I'm ok for rest of day. Migraine once a day and can't eat big meals, small ones best. Last pregnancy I was ecstatic all the time, now all I do is worry. Ugh.
4. Halloween- we totally get into it, last year we were Superman, woman and girl. I found a little newborn superman outfit and we took pic with that and that will be our announcement! This year all pirates (yes we already know!!!) and we do Howl-o-scream at Busch Gardens and decorate the whole house. We love it bc is signifies the beginning of the Holiday season. Pumpkin lattes, kettle corn, and apple everything turn into pumpkin and really everything pies, then gingerbread a and all the cookies and more lattes... Is it ok I just pick September through December???
