Recent/upcoming appointments: Today is our first ultrasound. Thursdaycodnt come quick enough. I'm nervous and excited! #betterthanchristmas
Rants/raves/symptoms?: sleeping woes. I know I'm supposed to sleep now while I can, but I just can't get deep. Tossing and turning and nightmares. Is it too early for a pregnancy pillow just to support my bloat?! Anyone else?
Week/fruit: 8/raspberry/half a lego brick Recent/upcoming appointments:1st was last week, next appt. in 3 weeks.
Rants/raves/symptoms?: Nausea is getting better!!
Questions for the group?: None at the moment..
GTKY: Any interesting/unusual "fun facts" about yourself? When I was a teenager, I actually won two pie eating contests, even against grown men and a heavyweight wrestler, lol. They weren't the type where you eat as many pies as you can, but eating one as fast as you can. I'm extremely competitive, so I think that's what helped me out. I retired from the competitive eating circuit when I was 17. :P

@Photoslave Good luck on your first ultrasound! Yay! It's so nice to see the little bean. I hear you with sleeping. I've always been a pretty sound sleeper, but haven't been lately. I think I'm going to get a snoogle or something to see if that helps. If I'm going to end up buying one anyway, I might as well get it now to get the most use out of it.

I wonder if this is what I have?? About a year ago it started...I noticed my hands swell up. Its if I am walking/jogging outside and its cold out and my hands are exposed. Or if I am warm but holding a cold beverage or something. They get itchy, then tingly, then red and swollen. Are you clinically confirmed as allergic to cold, and if so, what kind of doctor did you go to? My allergist is puzzled.

I asked my GP about it a few years back and she said it's called "cold urticaria." I've been taking medication for hypothyroidism since I was about 11 years old and she said it's common for people with hypothyroidism to have this reaction to cold. It didn't start happening until I was about 18 and it started just on my legs and now has moved all over my body and just in the last two years to my face.

Close its a day later. They said I am a week behind what I thought too due date is 5/27. Looking forward to the US on the 6th!
Week/fruit: 13 weeks and baby is the size of a jalapeño, yuck.
Recent/upcoming appointments: I have one today! I moved back home and had to find a new doctor, meeting with the nurse today. Hating that I have to start the whole process over again.
Rants/raves/symptoms?: nausea is still kicking my butt, I've woken up these past couple of mornings and puked up my spit? So weird, it's like that when I puke in the mornings though. I can never seem to stay comfortable at night, BF likes to cuddle and I can only be in one position for so long, then I have to switch. Hot flashes have started and same with headaches, it's been rough.
Questions for the group?: None at the moment.
GTKY: Any interesting/unusual "fun facts" about yourself? Hmmm, I can't think of any right now.
