I'm still drinking coffee. Keeping it to 1-2 cups rather than the 3 I was doing before pregnancy. With a 3 year old and a toddler, I couldn't do it without. Thankfully this pregnancy is allowing coffee, unlike my previous ones.

That's my problem, it just smells and tastes so bad I can't do it. I think it's the milk in it as well as the coffee but I just can't go near it.

Ugh! I had diarrhea and vomiting at the same time this morning. So that was fun

got desperate to ease the nausea and bought ginger snaps jolly ranchers and ginger ale today. Something has to work right! Of course the crazy thing is I still feel like I HAVE to eat or the nausea just gets worse.

Questions for the Group:

GTKY: what is your favorite show to binge watch?
Friends, criminal minds, game of thrones and the league

dannyjo2012 · July 2015

Week: 7!

What's new with baby (size, development): Blueberry!

What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: Trying to eat (LOL) and get enough sleep.

Rant/rave/symptoms: Still just feeling like nothing sounds good, even when I'm hungry. I don't remember the aversions being so widespread when I was pregnant with DS.

Questions for the Group: Rant / question: Today, DS had to get a chest x-ray for a bad cough (poor guy!), and they asked me if I might be pregnant before starting of course... Since I told them I was, they had me stand in the hall. Later, when we were walking out, I mentioned where I had been standing, and they said, 'oh, you should've been standing WAY over on the other side of the hall', but then told me 'it should be okay'. I was frustrated, because I was 'in the hall' as they asked, but now feel mildly concerned. Anyone have any experience with a similar situation?

GTKY: what is your favorite show to binge watch? Breaking Bad was so good! As was The Newsroom, Mad Men and OiTNB.

TinyCompanion is the size of a chocolate chip

What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: officially asked my doula to be my doula again

Rant/rave/symptoms: fatigue, moodiness
I want to punch everyone who says "do you know what causes this?" or substitutes Duggar for my last name - I just don't think that 4 kids is *THAT* big of a family.

Questions for the Group: anyone else have a panic moment here and there? Like we were really trying for this baby! This baby is wanted! And I got my second labs back and they look great and suddenly I feel like "holy shit what have we done?!" I remember having those feelings a few times with #3 too, but this time idk, I'm worried we are upsetting some sort of balance? Idk probably stupid hormones messing with my brain.

GTKY: what is your favorite show to binge watch?
Always Doctor Who. Supernatural. I also tend to have a week's worth of General Hospital to catch up on at a time. Right now I am currently rewatching Game of Thrones bc husband decided (after I watched the last episode of season 5) that he wants to see it after all. Yay!

Stormiewinter · July 2015

@oceanchild I feel exactly that way! After yesterday's appointment it was like OMG we are really doing this. We will have two children agh! I am so excited and this baby was very wanted too, but I also get scared about upsetting the balance we currently have.
