Re: WEDNESDAY SYMPTOMS
How are you feeling? Exhausted + headache = no bueno. My whole body hurts and I seriously just want to go back to bed. Oh, and don't forget the bloating. I might as well get used to it because it's never going away.
Rants/Raves? Not a whole lot today. My pregnancy app has a daily post that says "If you're tooting like a tugboat, you're not alone!" Boy, that makes me feel better
GTKY: The Christmas tree will go up right after Thanksgiving, and that's when I'll probably start putting all the other decorations up. Also, since I will be a hunting widow every weekend for the next month, I plan on getting started on my Christmas gift baskets full of my homemade salsa, spaghetti sauce, pepper jelly, etc. I am excited for 25 Days of Christmas to start on ABC Family
How are you feeling? Good. Nausea waves starting to ramp up.
Rants/Raves? Got an email from my doctor's office that my second beta draw from Monday shows my hcg is increasing as it should! I understand why they didn't give me the #, but I wish they had. Gimme all the data. Bottom line, everything's good so far, and I'm happy with that.
GTKY: When do you start putting Christmas decorations up? If you don't celebrate Christmas, what Holiday do you celebrate/when do you decorate?
We start decorating for Christmas the week after Thanksgiving. However, we do a live tree every year, so we put that up the 2nd week of December usually so it doesn't dry out quite so much by Christmas time.
@mrsschmity: Your Christmas gift baskets sound amazing! I'm sure people are grateful to recieve such thoughtful, delicious gifts!
I try to keep the tree watered as well, but it just doesn't stay hydrated quite as long as I hope! Real trees = amazing smell. Growing up we always had a faux tree, but DH converted me to real trees. Ain't going back!
And thank you
How are you feeling? Exhausted!
I'm having a little caffeine to get my work done. Doc said I can have two cups a day sooo I am agreeing today.
Rants/Raves?
Just super exhausted as usual. DH was kind of snarky about not staying up with him, but I just walked away and went to sleep. I don't have time for that.
GTKY: When do you start putting Christmas decorations up? If you don't celebrate Christmas, what Holiday do you celebrate/when do you decorate?
Usually the weekend after thanksgiving. But, we will be visiting family in another state this year so I am thinking about asking DH to get stuff from the attic a few weekends befor then. I think I won't put out that much this year with my exhaustion.
How far along are you? 7weeks, exactly :-)
How are you feeling? Exhausted. I'm anemic and totally over booked for this level of energy.
Rants/Raves? Beautiful weather makes it easier to get outside for a walk (need all the incentive I can get to exercise when I'm this sleepy all the time).
GTKY: When do you start putting Christmas decorations up? If you don't celebrate Christmas, what Holiday do you celebrate/when do you decorate?
It always depends on the work schedule. This year I'll probably put them up the week of the 12th because finals will be over that week.
How are you feeling? headaches are killing me...seems to be a daily thing that kicks in at around 4pm. The nausea has been somewhat better since yesterday.
Rants/Raves? I hate work. I want to sleep all day and watch movies.
GTKY: We put up (well, I put up) decorations after Turkey Day. Can't wait for hot cocoa and all the Christmas movies. I wouldn't complain if the temperature here would drop below 70 degrees once in awhile!
How are you feeling? Still nauseous and tired with sore boobs and headaches and CRAZY acne. Thank god for make-up!
Rants/Raves? DH's work trip just got cancelled!!!!! Our anniversary is next Tuesday and he was going to be gone for almost 2 weeks starting tomorrow. Now he's not! Which means I have to creatively complete his gift, since I was going to use his away-time to get it done... but I'll take it!!!!
GTKY: When do you start putting Christmas decorations up? If you don't celebrate Christmas, what Holiday do you celebrate/when do you decorate? We decorate the day/weekend after Thanksgiving. Everything goes up, Christmas music plays, gifts are bought (or at least planned) and Christmas movies are enjoyed!! I agree with @MrsSchmity - bring on the ABC Family movies!
How are you feeling? Crappy! Yesterday my throat was scratchy. All last night it was so painful that I barely slept. Never mind pregnancy symptoms. I'm sick!
Rants/Raves? Nothing today!
GTKY: When do you start putting Christmas decorations up? If you don't celebrate Christmas, what Holiday do you celebrate/when do you decorate? After Thanksgiving.

@Meglit89: Oh no! Having an illness on top of pregnancy symptoms has got to be tough. Hope the bug goes away soon!

How are you feeling? Terrible. Tired, moody, grumpy, lazy, queesy. I'm basically all seven dwarfs in any given hour.
Rants/raves: Had my u/s yesterday. The good news is there is a fetal pole and sack in my uterus. He bad news is it was measuring 5w5d, so we didn't get to see HB. I was temping and I am pretty close to 100% sure of my O date, so that is concerning to me. Doc said sometimes babies measure small and that the u/s has a standard deviation of +/- 5 days. We go for another u/s next week so just praying and waiting.
GTKY: usually we decorate the day after Thanksgiving. This year I kind of want to start early. Maybe the weekend before Thanksgiving. I can't wait. I LOVE Christmas.

How are you feeling?
Still crappy, I puked so bad Monday but got lucky yesterday and didn't get sick once. Hoping this means I'm one of the special few whose morning sickness starts going down by 10 weeks.
Rants/Raves?
Meh nothing much going on, just bored out of my mind.
GTKY: When do you start putting Christmas decorations up? If you don't celebrate Christmas, what Holiday do you celebrate/when do you decorate?
I start decorating thanksgiving night, we put music on, make cider or hot coco and out the tree up.
How are you feeling : aweful!! Last night I was up twice to puke and I puke at least 3 times a day . Meeting with people for work is getting harder and harder and I can only work from home so many days . Also so darn tired I can't wait to feel human again my house is a mess
Rants raves: grocery shopping... We have zero food because I always do the grocery shopping and haven't had the gusto to get it done
Christmas : if I could my tree would already be up!! I am a freak about having to have a real tree though and it wouldn't last so I will have to wait this one out a couple more weeks . If I'm lucky I can get DH on the roof this weekend to put up lights though!! We built our house together over the last year so there are no lights up there but when we built it we put outlets in the sofits that are switched to a light switch inside the house .. So basically once we get the lights up there once all I have to do it switch a light switch inside for it to light up!

@MistKeeper enjoy the beautiful weather! We seem to be having an Indian summer here in MN this week. Last week we were down in the 40s (normal for this time of year) and this week it's back up in the 60s/70s
@Kballew10 yay for H being home! And yes, bring on all the Christmas movies!
@Meglit89 Hope you feel better soon. Being sick on top of being pregnant does not sound like fun.
@DeePaddy24 Sorry your emotions are all over the place
@Wyattnash00 Yay for H being home this year! I know the feeling. Before H got out of the military we spent maybe one Christmas together over the course of 4-5 years. It sucks. I'm glad yours gets to be home this year
@cjt121413 FX for your next US! Lots of thoughts and prayers for you.
@adiaz132003I feel terrible for you every day I read about your MS
*Edit for tag fail
9w
How are you feeling?
Still terrible. I was so nauseaus yesterday. Today isn't shapping up to be much better. At least I got eggs down me this morning. I haven't had much protein in several days. I'm hoping to get a fruit and veggie smoothie for lunch today to try and get some veggies in too (haven't had those for over a week).
Rants/Raves?
I'm traveling to India soon and I'm dreading this flight. Over 30 hours of travel + MS = no bueno. I hope I survive...lol.
GTKY: When do you start putting Christmas decorations up? If you don't celebrate Christmas, what Holiday do you celebrate/when do you decorate?
I start decorating after Thanksgiving. I'm looking forward to decorating this year with a LO growing inside of me.

How are you feeling? tired w/ no appetite for anything. I don't have food aversions exactly, but smelling food makes my nose wrinkle.
Rants/Raves? I skipped my morning gym session today. First time in months.
GTKY: When do you start putting Christmas decorations up? Usually the day after Thanksgiving. I realized today that with the new entertainment center/bookshelves unit we put up...I can't put the tree where it normally goes. No idea where it will end up.
How are you feeling? Overall better than I had been... I have moments of "omg panic I have no symptoms" (yes I know they come & go) and then moments of exhaustion/nausea/food aversions/overall b*tchiness.
Rants/Raves? My eldest sister has a milestone birthday coming up and she has decided that all of her sisters will be taking her away to the carribean for her birthday... I don't really want to travel pregnant nor do I want to spend the money... I know I cannot say no as she's done a lot for me in the past with my bridal shower/bachelorette party but I feel like a trip like this for a birthday is crazy... and its not going to go over well that I'm expecting.
How are you feeling? Okay. Nausea until I eat something (which ends up me eating constantly). Smells are starting to get to me. My 3yo loves ketchup and usually it doesn't bother me, but last night I felt like it stunk up the entire house!
Rants/Raves? I just wish the weather here in Alabama would decide what it wanted to do. It is honestly November and 68 degrees outside today with a high of 75. Tomorrow and Friday the same weather. Then Saturday the high is only 60.
GTKY: When do you start putting Christmas decorations up? If you don't celebrate Christmas, what Holiday do you celebrate/when do you decorate? I start decorating for Christmas the day after Thanksgiving (I am not a Black Friday Shopper by no means). However, I do have a box or 2 of some fragile things my parents gave to me last week when they moved that I may go ahead and get out just to get them out of a box and off of my dining room table. Tree and outside deco will wait till after Thanksgiving when hubs can get it out of the attic for me.
thank you
How far along are you? Gonna be 8 weeks tomorrow
How are you feeling? The same - just shitty all around. Every symptom in the book.
Rants/Raves? I've come to the realization that there's nothing I can do about my job situation until after I take my maternity leave. If I try to change positions in my organization now I would have to be ON at a new job when I'm not focused on work and then leave for maternity leave soon after starting... if I try to get a job outside of my organization I am not eligible for maternity leave. So I'm just trying to come to terms with the fact I'm stuck, for now.
GTKY: When do you start putting Christmas decorations up? If you don't celebrate Christmas, what Holiday do you celebrate/when do you decorate? I'm Jewish and my DH is a goyim who isn't religious but celebrates all the Christian holidays. I LOVE celebrating Christmas now - it is so much fun. We just bought a house too so I'm excited to decorate in a way we couldn't in our last place. Will probably start decorating in the first couple weeks of December.
How are you feeling? Brilliant today full of energy I actually feel normal for once even the sore boobs have gone slightly tired now but I've been none stop at work !
Rants/Raves? It makes me annoyed that I'm feeling so good yet I'm worried something's not right as if I shouldn't feel this good it scares me does anybody else get this ?
GTKY: When do you start putting Christmas decorations up? 14 days before Christmas then take them down 14 days after think it might be a English tradition
I feel like poo. The nausea only stops while I'm eating, so I feel sick and fat!
I've also been quite crampy. Could be normal uterine stretching; however, dh and I had sex for the first time since the bfp and I'm now worried we messed something up in there!
I always put out my minimal Christmas decorations the weekend coming thanksgiving. It feels like so much effort to get that tree decorated that I want to enjoy it as long as possible:)
How are you feeling?: Not super awesome.
Rants/Raves?: I have been put on bed rest at 9 weeks. It's incredibly surreal. I apparently have a short cervix and the baby is low. The goal of bed rest is to remove as much gravity from the equation as possible to allow the baby to move up further. Despite that, I got to see a heart beat yesterday! That was a pretty phenomenal experience, even if my cervix is trying to sabotage all of my best efforts to keep this baby cooking.
GTKY: When do you start putting Christmas decorations up? If you don't celebrate Christmas, what Holiday do you celebrate/when do you decorate?: I try to wait until Thanksgiving weekend to decorate for Christmas and Hanukah, but last year and this year it falls so late it's really tough to wait it out!
Feeling ok, nauseated on & off.... Seems like if I eat I feel better, so I'm eating a lot. I'm feeling extra fat right now, my face is even fat. I lost 65 lbs in 2011 and have kept it off, so the thought of gaining it all back TERRIFIES me. I ate an entire container of 7 layer dip by myself for lunch (I've been craving it since I read something about it on here a few days ago lol) I just want to sleep all the time! Pregnancy brain is setting in, and I can't seem to focus at work. I really just wanna b home and resting. I've been extremely emotional!!!!! I would've expected myself to b irritable and anxious, but I haven't. I've been all teary eyed, and cry at the drop of a hat! Geez!!
I have my first ultrasound on 11/10. (Tuesday) and I'm super excited about it, so gives me something to look forward to.
Christmas? I get extremely stressed out this time of year because I feel a lot of pressure to spend lots of $$ on Christmas presents that I don't usually have. I put it off as long as I possibly can.
