Re: --** Ticker Change Saturday **--
1.What week/fruit are you? I am 6 weeks today!! Team Sweetpea!
2. Thoughts or feelings entering into this week? Still ultra excited...just hoping everything goes well at my ultrasound.
3. Any Dr. Apt's this week? We were working with an RE so we get our first u/s at 6 weeks!! We will hopefully see our little sea monkey on Monday afternoon.
4. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? Still next to no symptoms. My breasts hurt like whoa and I get nasty cramps usually in the middle of the night. I just started burping like constantly...so that's new. And a couple of times I've felt like I was going to lose my shit if I didn't eat something right away...but still no nausea or exhaustion.
QOTW: How long were you actively TTC before you got your BFP? We tried for 4 years and eventually used an RE to help. We got our BFP on IUI #3.

1.What week/fruit are you? 6 weeks; sweetpea
2. Thoughts or feelings entering into this week? Excited for my doctors appt.
3. Any Dr. Apt's this week? I have an appointment Monday but have no idea what to expect!
4. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? I had awful heartburn one night and into the next morning but other then that my only symptom has been fatigue.
QOTW: How long were you actively TTC before you got your BFP? We hadn't been using protection for probably 6-8 months, this was the first cycle I charted and made an effort to time sex.
1.What week/fruit are you? Sweet pea! Week 6
2. Thoughts or feelings entering into this week? Just really wanting to get to my 8 week appointment!
3. Any Dr. Apt's this week? Nope October 7th is my first ultrasound and appt.
4. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? My symptoms were much more severe last week. This week I have only really had bloating and a bit of breast tenderness but not near as bad at the week before!
We were actively trying for about 8 months before we conceived this month!
2. Thoughts or feelings entering into this week? Just nervous. My loss happened at 5w1d, so week 5 always puts me on edge.
3. Any Dr. Apt's this week? I had to betas done last week, and my OB said I could come in this week for another draw if I need more reassurance. I'm going to try to hold off, unless I have any spotting or loss of symptoms.
4. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? Just the typical nausea, dizziness, and sore boobs. And it seems like heartburn is starting early this time.
5. QOTW: I had been charting since January. But we were NTNP.
1.What week/fruit are you? 5 weeks/Appleseed
2. Thoughts or feelings entering into this week? I'm just excited to be here. Things seem to be going smoothly so far and I'm very thankful for that.
3. Any Dr. Apt's this week? Not that I'm aware of. Since the base here doesn't do L&D, we had to get a referral to see someone off base. That was approved yesterday but it's for a male OB-GYN. I'm going to see about switching to a female because I would feel a little bit better about that. If not, I will be setting up an appointment with this doctor.
4. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? The only symptoms I really have right now is having to pee constantly. I drink so much water so I can understand that. It's annoying at times because I like to walk a lot. The past few days I would have to turn around in the driveway to go back and pee. Then I would make it around the neighborhood and have to come back and pee again. The past couple of days I have been so hungry. That kind of hit me out of nowhere. I've seriously ate so much food (mostly healthy). My husband thinks it's hilarious because every couple of hours I'm starving.
QOTW: How long were you actively TTC before you got your BFP? We stopped BC after our wedding in May. We weren't actively trying until this last cycle because we were moving and buying a house and wanted to get past all that stress. I honestly didn't think it would happen right away because I tend to be pessimistic at times (just coming off of BC and having messed up cycles, being over 30, yada yada). I guess I was wrong. Hopefully things continue to go smoothly.
7 weeks - blueberry
2. Thoughts or feelings entering into this week?
Excited to see our baby at our first u/s on Monday. I don't think it will feel real to me until I see that little heart flickering.
3. Any Dr. Apt's this week?
No.
Fatigue is starting to hit me. Some queasiness here and there but so far no toilet visits. And ravenous, oh man am I ever!
QOTW: How long were you actively TTC before you got your BFP?
A month.
2. Thoughts or feelings entering into this week? I'm feeling much better today, hope week six was the worst for ms
3. Any Dr. Apt's this week? First appt is Thursday! I'm so excited!
4. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? Just super exhuasted. It's so much harder this time chasing around a 17 mo old. Last pregnancy I could nap/go to bed/wake up whenever I wanted.
QOTW: How long were you actively TTC before you got your BFP? First try. I was temping so we hit the timing just right, plus we were on vacay in the Dominican so that helped lower the stress of ttc.
2. Thoughts or feelings entering into this week? - I am SO excited to be hitting the 2 month mark because that means just one more month of the 1 tri!!!!!!!
3. Any Dr. Apt's this week? - on tuesday I have a follow up U/S my 1st was way too soon to see the heart (was having severe pain) so I am just crossing my fingers and toes that there is a healthy heartbeat waiting!!!
4. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? - Have been crippled with extreme nausea and fatigue...the constpation is annoying and the food aversions ridiculous!
QOTW: How long were you actively TTC before you got your BFP?- removed my iud ttc #3 & happened right away (thankful & surprised)
1.What week/fruit are you? 7
2. Thoughts or feelings entering into this week? hoping with week 7 the symptoms calm down a bit. nausea has gone down a lot... now im trying to get the 24/7 starvation under control
3. Any Dr. Apt's this week? i have my first ultrasound on thursday im so nervous
4. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? just constant hunger, very little nausea (finally) fatigue. i woke up at 730 this am and took a quick nap at like 10 lol
QOTW: How long were you actively TTC before you got your BFP? we got our bfp on the first try surprisingly. i was temping for 4 months before we actually tried just to get the hang of my fertility
1.What week/fruit are you? 6/sweet pea
2. Thoughts or feelings entering into this week? Just happy to get through another week.
3. Any Dr. Apt's this week? Hopefully not! I had an ultrasound last week that confirmed a cyst on my right ovary was causing my abdominal pain. The week before I went in for 2 blood tests for hcg since I'd had some light bleeding. This week would be just fine with no phone calls or doctor's visits, thanks
4. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? I have a cold. It doesn't seem fair to be stuffed up, achy and uncomfortable while already dealing with food aversions, nausea and discomfort.
QOTW: How long were you actively TTC before you got your BFP? 3 months.
1.What week/fruit are you?
- 6 weeks/Sweet Pea
2. Thoughts or feelings entering into this week?
- Wondering if I'm going to regret starting to tell friends and family so early. I'm up to eight people who know now when originally we were thinking we wanted to keep it on the DL until second tri.
- Feeling a little anxious that something isn't going right because I have had next to no symptoms
3. Any Dr. Apt's this week?
- Nope. U/S at week 8. Just gotta hang tight until then.
4. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms?
- Got some blood work back and found that I have sub-clinical hypothyroidism... and despite it being sub-clinical and despite hearing that it's not a big risk to baby because we're monitoring/tackling it early, I am a still a little worried. Started medication for it today and am hoping my thyroid starts working properly soon!
QOTW: How long were you actively TTC before you got your BFP?
- swimmers were successful during the second month!
