Rants/raves/stories: I started spotting red blood yesterday pretty much only when I wiped. Occasionally some on a panty liner when I coughed (getting over a cold) or spent time bent over (washing dishes, doing laundry). I haven't had any cramping beyond the mild cramping I've had for the whole pregnancy but I'm TERRIFIED. Going to the doctor today to get blood drawn but that won't mean much until I go back on Thursday and get it drawn again the wait is terrible.
Questions for the group: has anyone had any experience with a similar situation as what I'm having?
Symptoms: Tired, but not too nauseous anymore *knock on wood* HUNGRY for Little Debbie cakes, all the time! I have been sneezing all the time too.
Rants/Raves/Stories: Nothing too crazy has happened... just counting down the days until I show a little baby bump, and find out the gender!
Questions for the group? So far so good
GTKY: What is your favorite sports team? Hmm... College football team... FLORIDA STATE all the way! NFL team... depends on how my draft goes tonight But I'd have to root for the Tampa Bay Bucs or Jacksonville Jags, although I was raised a Cowboys fan!
Rants/Raves/Stories: Because of my previous loss, I had my first u/s yesterday and got to hear the heartbeat - amazing. I may have a bicarnuate uterus (it's heart-shaped, which is manageable, but baby may not have enough room to turn head down before birth. It may also be the reason for my miscarriage), so they will be doing a second u/s in two weeks to see if they can determine what's going on.
Questions for the group? No questions now.
@mswings1 - spotting can be cause by lots of different things...so unless it's severe or clotted, I wouldn't freak out just yet (I had a natural mc, and I can tell you what I experienced was far from spotting). Try to remain as calm as you can and wait for the results from your second draw. Hoping the best for you!
GTKY: What is your favorite sports team? Not a die-hard fan, but definitely cheer on my Bengals (sorry @steelersfan3878 )
Symptoms: metallic taste....still, nausea in the middle of the night when I wake up with my toddler. Yes, she still wakes up at almost 15 months! I may never sleep again!
Rants/Raves/Stories: I'm going to rave on my husband. He plays Mr. Mom in the morning getting our three kids to where they need to be, and he really does an awesome job. I'm lucky to have him.
Rants/Raves/Stories: Seriously, after getting through the first trimester, how does anyone want more kids?!!? The morning sickness has kicked in full swing and all I can think about is getting to the 2nd trimester.
Questions for the group? None yet.
GTKY: What is your favorite sports team? I'm not really a sports fan so for the most part I cheer for the home (Philadelphia) team
Symptoms: gone is all day nausea because it's turned into all day nausea plus vomiting. Exhausted by 2-3pm.
Rants/Raves/Stories: told my bosses and they are excited and I still have a job. Also little one I watch knew I wasn't feeling good and brought me her lovey to snuggle so I would feel better.
Questions for the group? Pregnancy brain. I cannot remember my question.
GTKY: What is your favorite sports team? DUKE for college b/c of SO and I was raised a Cowboys fan.
Questions for the group? Has anyone had a yeast infection?
Yep. I have one now. Its lovely, and you can't use any medicine to clear it up until after the first trimester (I just saw my OB yesterday about it). When she said that I was like
She recommended more vitamin C, yogurt, cutting out sugar/wheat, the usual for the natural remedies. The only positive about that appointment was I got to hear my little one's heartbeat again!
Symptoms: Fatigue, restless sleep, and hungry all the time.
Rants/Raves/Stories: Leaving tomorrow for vacation on Cape Cod. Excited for a week off with the family. Also telling both of our parents about LO tonight.
@Jizzill thank you for the encouragement! I'm trying to stay calm I just wish I knew one way or another what's going on . So far it's not getting better but it's also not getting worse so I guess I'll choose to look on the bright side
******* For Those Who Start New Weeks on Tuesday ***********
Week: 8
Symptoms: My boobs are HUGE... like I need to go bra shopping tomorrow. Super starving all the time and nausea pretty much all day errryday. Bloat is also getting pretty bad. Oh, and I can't sleep. What a joyous miracle!
Rants/Raves/Stories: I have already gained 5 lbs :'( I just can't stop eating because when I don't eat for an hour or two I feel so sick. I also haven't eaten a single vegetable in a week. I am even disgusted by most fruit... all I can stomach is apples and raspberries. I ate a peach today and didn't gag *too* much.
Questions for the group?: nada
GTKY: What is your favorite sports team?: ew.

Nov siggy challenge: animals eating Thanksgiving food
Symptoms: Some queasiness. Not much yet. Went away a few days but is now coming back, which makes me both happy and... queasy.
Rants/Raves/Stories: Got my own private office in a new building - yay! - but all of the "support" is missing. I'm not hooked up to a printer so I can't print at work, and there is no room with a fridge and microwave in this building. I asked what to do but I'm seriously considering just bringing a damn microwave and putting it in my office. I can do without a fridge because my lunch bag is insulated, but no microwave limits my food intake too much - especially at this time. If I complain to anyone I'll just tell them I'm hypoglycemic.
