Re: FRIDAY SYMPTOMS
How far along are you? 9w3d
How are you feeling? Decent, but so drained! The fatigue/sleepy bug hit me like a freight train this week. Plus, I'm waking up for a couple hours in the middle of the night, which doesn't help. Nausea doesn't seem to be present really at all, just some extreme hunger when my tummy is empty in the mornings. I've had a cold all week also, and it's finally starting to clear up, so I'm thankful for that!
Rants/Raves? Rant is about the current traffic in the Bay Area (northern, CA). I feel like in the past couple months it's gotten increasinly worse. There are too many people on the freeways at all times of the day and SO many incompentent drivers, so many accidents during rush hour(s)-- it's just all ridiculous. Now more than ever it's very apparent how much our public transit system sucks, because many more people could and should take it! I'd gladly take a broom to fly on rather than sit in more of this crap!
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday cookie or dessert? I have a few... Pecan pie, pumpkin cheese cake and these over-the-top sweet sugar cookies my sister always makes with york peppermint patties in them. Can't wait!
How are you feeling? Tired, bloated, RLP, fuller boobs and tender nips.
Rants/Raves? It's Friday! That should be enough of a rave, but I will also add that we are telling the rest of H's family at Thanksgiving tomorrow, so that will be exciting! Oh, and my mom and dad will be in town this weekend. They live 4 hours away so we don't get to see them often. I am feeling all warm and fuzzy
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday cookie or dessert? Probably pumpkin pie. YUM.

How are you feeling?
Excited today! Still got the MS but it's not as crippling
Rants/Raves?
I feel so wonderful after that appt yesterday. Midwife says the heart is very strong and it was very easy to find which was good cause every time I heard it I started to shake and it moved the Doppler so it took a minute for her to read the heart rate lol. It finally feels real and I am so excited!!!
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday cookie or dessert?
Scotch shortbread cookies, I could eat a whole tray easy.
How are you feeling? Decent. Anti nausea meds working wonders. Very tired though.
Rants. Idiot drivers. We had our first snowstorm of the year yesterday. People always forget how to drive. Its like this 4-6 months out of the year here. Ugh.
Fave holiday cookie? Not a cookie but Nanaimo bars.
How far along are you?
9w today
How are you feeling?
I have figured out I will puke in the morning whether I eat or not. In the interest of nutrition, I have just been waiting to puke before eating breakfast. Once thats over with, I am able to have a fairly normal day. Other than that, RLP is maybe starting when I sneeze or laugh, not 100% sure yet.
Rants/Raves?
My dinner last night was a bag of salad mix with far too much ranch dressing and 3 mini breakfast sausages. I'm counting it as a successful, nutritious meal with veggies, dairy and protein.
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday cookie or dessert?
Not a standard one but cheese cake. My mom makes one every year and it's so so yummy.
@Sgoldberg247 I hope you can shake the MS soon!
@bedinabelinda I refuse to shop right now lol My bloat doesn't like anything restricting.
How are you feeling? Good, just tired. I toss and turn for what feels like much of the night, so maybe I'll catch a nap later (yeah, right!).
Rants/Raves? TGIF.
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday cookie or dessert?
Ginger cookies and bourbon pumpkin pie (though, maybe not this year).
How are you feeling? Okay today, so far. I think the B6 and Unisom is really helping with nausea! RLP has really started to hit, I can feel my body stretching to accommodate this LO.
Rants/Raves? I got a pregnancy pillow yesterday because I'm a stomach sleeper and this keeps me on my side... Aaahhhmazing. Everyone needs one!
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday cookie or dessert? Pumpkin pie!!!! And now I want some!
Baby #2 Due 3/7/20

How are you feeling?
So far, so good. I feel like the headaches have finally eased up *knock on wood* & aside from being tired I'm doing okay. Here's hoping this continues!
Rants/Raves?
The bloat is out of control. I've got a huge gut going on & it's so disgusting & uncomfortable, especially since I didn't have this before. I feel so fat & awful.
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday cookie or dessert?
My mom makes haystacks that are pretty amazing...I look forward to them each year. I've also been loving gingerbread cookies this year...they've been my guilty pleasure snack throughout the day!

How are you feeling? Like this flu will NEVER go away. But B6 has seriously kicked the nausea. Now I'm just crazy hungry with super sore boobs!
Rants/Raves? The doctor can't see me today (I'm a "new" patient since I never get sick or go to a physician) so I'm pretty much going to cross my fingers that I get better this weekend? Until then, it's Tylenol and attempted naps. I felt slightly better this morning, so hopefully that's a good sign?
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday cookie or dessert? Just simple sugar cookies. I'm not a huge dessert person anyway and I think there are too many at the holidays that just go overboard. Simple is where it's at. Also, I hate pumpkin pie, so there's that...
How are you feeling? A little nauseous this morning, bloated, indigestion, sleepy, but overall not bad.
Rants/Raves? No rants today! Raves: It's Friday! Also, we got GREAT news from the lab yesterday regarding DH's most recent SA results. Long story, short - DH had 2 large vericoceles that may have been causing his low numbers (3 mil count, 15% motility, 0% morph) so he had surgery back in August to tie them up. At the same time, he was taking a supplement called Fertilaid since the beginning of August. I got KU beginning of Oct. and I wanted him to do an SA before 3 months post-surgery. He did the SA last Tues (11/10) and the results are in!
Count: 3 mil > 36 mil!!
Motility: 15% > 63%!!!
Morphology: 0% > 1% (oh well)
This hopefully means that when we want to have more children, we will have the same chances as a healthy couple and may now be considered "healthy". We had already met with an RE and were slated to start the process for IVF/ICSI in January. We feel so lucky that the surgery was a success and we were able to conceive naturally. Not only that, but the first RE we met with told DH NOT to do the surgery! He said it wouldn't help enough!
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday cookie or dessert? Baklava bars! I make them a few times each holiday season. They are super easy and always a huge hit. https://www.bettycrocker.com/recipes/baklava-bars/9e95d2b4-ac75-4d1b-aca0-48473bc7c6de

My Chart
@laurenm2123 Pumpkin pie = Lyfe.
@DeePaddy24 Ditto on the bloat. I am not used to this and I'm sitting here thinking to myself "what is happening to meeee"
@cmillar36 You're way the heck up there then! I used to live up on the border of MN/CA across from Fort Frances. That's the farthest I've been lol
@Kballew10 I dislike driving in the snow, but I will say that I'm happy we have some for the holidays! And I can't believe you don't like pumpkin pie. You are un-American. Jk
@BakerBird525 Great news on hubby's SA! And those bars look delish.
How far along are you? 11w3d
How are you feeling? Overall better, just hoping some of my energy returns soon!
Rants/Raves? Already over waking up because I have to pee and then not being able to fall back asleep!!
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday cookie or dessert? Oh just one? I'll have to go the simple route and say a baked just right, super soft sugar cookie with frosting!
How are you feeling? My MS has become bedtime sickness. I have thrown up right before bed the last 4 nights. WTH?? RLP, crazy sensitive nips.
Rants/Raves? Rant my ex-husband just decided that he needed to do something this weekend that couldn't include our son, so he just informed me that DS will stay with us this weekend. I love having my son on the weekends but I hate that my ex thinks he can just drop it on us and it will be fine. He has been like this a lot since he started seeing this new person. I think she doesn't want my son around. That just pisses me off!
GTKY: What is your favorite holiday cookie or dessert? Pumpkin pecan cheesecake from Cheesecake Factory.
