Questions for the group?
GTKY: What kind of car do you drive? What's your dream car?
Re: Friday Ticker Change!
Symptoms: Not much honestly. A little tired, some sore boobs, and my boobs look huge.
Rants/Raves/Stories: I was walking out of the bathroom the other day and DS looks at me and says, "wow Mama, you're getting fat! Maybe you have a baby growing in there. Maybe you have A THOUSAND babies in there!" Haha. DS doesn't know yet but he keeps making weirdly intuitive comments.
Questions for the group?: Nope!
Symptoms: Nausea when I don't eat, hungry ALL the time, crazy dreams, subtle cramps off and on, and can be emotional lol
Rants/Raves/Stories: This rant would be far too long but my sister in law who's pregnant and a total brat always rubs her pregnancies in my face because she's been able to get pregnant on the first try every time. My husband and I struggled to conceive for 4 years and we ended up doing a FET to get pregnant. Praise the Lord it worked. She was talking shit about my husband and I on her fb the other day because of our tattoos and I told my husband and he confronted her and she continued to bash us because when she was pregnant with her first child she had LIED to me and told me she didn't want any at the time and then didn't even have the courtesy to tell me she was pregnant I found out when she was like 4 months because I saw her at Christmas time. And at that time I was upset with her for all that she did after we had helped her out so much. Anyways she's pregnant with #2 due in January and she's been rubbing it in my face and my husband wanted so badly to tell her to shut her face because we're pregnant now too but I don't want it out there yet. Just thinking about her makes me so angry. Lol
Questions for the group?
How do you all deal with people who are unsupportive?
GTKY: What kind of car do you drive? What's your dream car?
I have a G6. It's been my car since I was 16. I really want an SUV tho. Not any in specific just an SUV. Lol
Symptoms: Feeling mostly ok. Rocking a pretty serious blump these days. I can't wait till I actually LOOK pregnant, instead of just fat and sloppy. I have had morning sickness a few times, but mostly feel sick in the afternoon. No matter what I eat, by the time 4pm rolls around, I feel stuffed and just generally uncomfortable. I am really looking forward to this going away because it makes it difficult for me to exercise.
Rants/Raves/Stories: Not today
Questions for the group? When is it socially acceptable to start wearing maternity pants? My regular pants are just so tight!
Week: 7!
Symptoms: All the morning sickness, except it lasts most of the day. My boobs are growing out of my bra and I'm growing out of my pants, so I guess it's time for some shopping. A little tired but nothing too terrible.
Rants/Raves/Stories: Rant: I somehow gained 3 pounds in the last week (which brings me up to nearly 10 since getting KU). I am still exercising just as much and I'm not over eating. If anything, I probably under-ate this week due to nausea. WTF? I am already overweight and did not want to gain any more than necessary!
Questions for the group? None today
GTKY: What kind of car do you drive? What's your dream car? I just sold my Chevy Traverse for an older Honda Pilot (no more car payment, and no more debt except our mortgage, woo!). I like the Pilot but if I could choose, I would probably buy a newer one that's not leather like my current one. If we had a smaller family, dream car would be a Porsche Cayenne. They're just so pretty!
@sarahufl I'm already wearing a belly band with my pants, and hoping to do some sneaky shopping over the weekend for bras and maternity pants cause none of my stuff fits comfortably already
Week: 8
Symptoms: All day sickness. Lots of fatigue.
Rants/Raves/Stories: I had a second ultrasound today at 8 weeks due to some bleeding. Baby is measuring spot on at 8 weeks with HB 169! A great TGIF
GTKY: What kind of car do you drive? What's your dream car? I drive a Ford Fusion. My dream car is a brand new Ford Edge! Hoping to get one before baby comes☺️
Symptoms: morning sickness that lasts ALL day, by boobs are sore and getting bigger every day and I'm exhausted.
Rants/Raves/Stories: Well I just started back at work and am really struggling with the morning sickness and fatigue. It's been tough.
Questions for the group? How you you take your mind of the fear of miscarrying? I am really struggling with it and want nothing more than to enjoy this pregnancy, but it's so hard. I miscarried around a year ago. I was only 4-5 weeks then, but now I am terrified and scared to get my hopes up. I have my first dr appt next Thursday. I'm hoping that relieves some of my stress/worry.
Symptoms: they seem to have lessened this week. Or maybe I am just getting used to them. Nausea when I don't eat, gas, bloat.
Rants/Raves/Stories: so my GP was on vacation when I found out I was pregnant. I had to wait two weeks to call her. Then she sent me for bloodwork. Got the results back and HCG was good at the time. She doesn't want to see me for my first appt until I am 11-12 weeks! And who knows when the ultrasound will happen after that. So, I hope there is nothing wrong that an US would pick up on before then. So nervous and impatient!
Questions for the group? Does anyone else have to wait as long as me? Should I tell family at 8 weeks even though we don't know how things are going!?
GTKY: What kind of car do you drive? What's your dream car? Honda Civic. We just bought our second car this week! Also a Honda Civic. I am not much of a car person, but I hope to upgrade to a CR-V once we have older kids.
Symptoms: not too many luckily, some nausea and lots of food cravings and aversions. No broccoli or califlower please!
Rants/Raves/Stories: yesterday I went out with a friend who I have known for 18 years. We had dinner and when the waitress came around asking if we would like anything to drink she blurted out, "she is pregnant, so she won't be having anything". I don't know why it bothered me but probably because I am only 8 weeks and only a few people know that I am even pregnant. I hope she doesn't tell people I actually know! I reminded her I didn't plan on telling anyone until 12 weeks that I was pregnant.
Questions for the group?
GTKY: What kind of car do you drive? What's your dream car? Audi Q5 and it was and still is my dream car
Week: 7
Symptoms: nausea...helped by eating a big meal at night and taking diclegis. I'm also having acid reflux issues which is probably making it worse.
Rants/Raves/Stories: none really
Questions for the group? Nope
GTKY: What kind of car do you drive? What's your dream car? I think I drive my dream car. I just bought it a few weeks ago, a 2016 ford explorer. It's so nice!
Symptoms: I actually got sick this week! It wasn't fun. Felt like crap. Boobs are giant and my nipples are getting a little darker ( I think! Lol)
R/R/S- had my first pre-natal appointment this week and I was just so stinkin excited to see that hesrtbeat and hear it too!!!
Questions- none this week
GTKY- what kind of car do you drive. I drive a GMC envoy. It's too big and I want a new car. My dream car- i don't have one. Not much into cars... But I do like the lexus iS series. So cute.
Symptoms: Sore breasts, fatigue, random crying jags
Rants/Raves/Stories: My biggest crying jag this week was a 45 minute marathon because I found out my Uncle accidentally told my Grandfather I was pregnant. DH and I haven't told anyone in a special planned way as of yet but my Grandfather we had special announcement plans for. My Uncle accidentally telling him devastated me beyond what I would in non pregnant life have found reasonable.
Questions for the group? None right now
