brie_and_almonds · July 2015

Due Date:
April 4

Symptoms:
Definitely heightened sense of smell. Also, I had a weird wave of nausea this morning while I was playing with DD, and changing her diaper was... a challenge. I think it's psychological. Either way, it's too early for this ish!

Rants/Raves/Stories:
See above.

Questions for the group:
None right now.

GTKY: I'm sure we could all use some relaxation. What is your favorite vacation destination?
We just got back from Okinawa, Japan which was pretty amazing. Definitely the furthest I've ever been from home physically and culturally. Domestically, I had a really nice time in Gulf Shores, AL a few years ago. I'd probably be more likely to go back there since there isn't like 20 hours of plane travel required to get there.

finnybooboo · July 2015

Due Date: 4/1

Symptoms: crazy bloating, like, my pants are tight already bloating

( I mean, did I eat a whole thanksgiving dinner in my sleep last night?! I'm also pretty fatigued today, and I'm having some heart flutters, which I think I can remember last time early in pregnancy that was due to the increase in blood flow.

Rants/Raves/Stories: This weekend was interesting. I started noticing symptoms so I bought a few tests and kept getting very faint lines. Sent DH to the store to get a digital one, and got a Not Pregnant on Saturday. Decided to take another digital one this morning and got a Pregnant.

So it's official official I'm here. AHH!!!!!!

Symptoms: Nada...I'm trying to remind myself that I didn't have any of the classic ones with my son either (almost the entire pregnancy!)

Rants/Raves/Stories: My son had a stomach bug this weekend and it went through the whole household. I'm a little worried about that but there is nothing I can do now. I did my best to stay hydrated and rested.

alyshamarie007 · July 2015

@finnybooboo, my doctor won't see me until I'm 12 weeks, so my first appt with her is sept 8. They do a phone appt at 8 weeks for all the education/family history stuff. That is aug 14 I think.

Rainbowheart · July 2015

Due Date: April 2

Symptoms: tired, hungry, bloated

Questions for the group: how long are you planning to wait until you spill the beans?

GTKY: I'm sure we could all use some relaxation. What is your favorite vacation destination? I love camping. Tent, sleeping on the ground, and no electricity camping.

loveymay · July 2015

@Rainbowheart we told my parents yesterday, and we're telling husband's parents this weekend. We will tell everyone else/public once we reach the second trimester. I can't wait to tell though, I get more excited everyday. Its really starting to sink in!

St0v3s · July 2015

@Rainbowheart we have been telling everyone little by little. However our parents still do not know because they haven't received their gifts in the mail. I doubt we are going to wait until second trimester to announce. We figured since we have the same possibility to miscarry at 9w as we would at week 13 we might as well tell anytime around week 9. If anything we are waiting to hear the heartbeat

brie_and_almonds · July 2015

@Rainbowheart I'm planning to wait until after my first doctor's appointment, which won't be until the end of August. I am terrible at keeping secrets so I am just going to try to avoid friends and family until then (just kidding... sort-of).
