Re: Sunday Ticker Change-04/24
How far along are you? 8 weeks
What size is baby this week? Raspberry, half lego (2x2)
Symptoms: nausea still comes in waves but has subsided. Exhaustion is a common theme esp. after 3-4 PM. Slightly less sore breasts but still very large. Sense of smell is on overdrive. Some headaches and bloating!
Rants/Raves/Questions: I want to share my joy with people so bad, but PGAL brain is really holding me back. DH and I both feel the same way, but we are going to wait until Mother's Day/2 more successful u/s/post-10weeks to tell our immediate families. One related rave is that I told my BFF, so at least I have someone to talk about it for the next 2 weeks. Second trimester cannot come soon enough!
question: anyone having terrible night bloating and how do you cope with it? It hurts my belly due to tightening my pants, I usually change into yoga pants, but any other remedies?
GTKY: What sports do/did you play? When and why? I did some swimming & synchronized swimming in middle school because my mom wanted us to be busy during the summer. I also run track and field from 5-11th grade. My family noticed I was pretty fast when a dog started chasing me around once on the 4th grade, haha!

What size is baby this week? sweet pea
Symptoms: Nausea is moderate, more tired than usual, smelling things and I usually have close to no sense of smell, crampy weirdness in my lower abdomen, bloat like whoa, intense dreams
Rants/Raves/Questions: Stressed out, since I had my first appointment on Friday and the in-office pee test came up negative and I'm waiting to hear about betas. The midwife ordered blood work late on Friday and said we could call yesterday morning to get the results but no one ever called back. I would have understood if they said I couldn't get the results until Monday, but since she said we could now I'm annoyed. I did another home test yesterday and it was very positive, but I still won't really be able to relax until I hear from them.
GTKY: What sports do/did you play? When and why? No sports for me. I'm very tall so people used to always ask if I played basketball, but more things are required than height. Like not being the worlds least coordinated human.

Early on when I had betas late in the day, I would not hear back until the morning of the day after next, so it is quite normal for them to call you back Monday morning. Just be patient. The first few weeks are the hardest, I want first trimester to fly by! FX for good news.

How far along are you? 8 weeks by my own estimate. Hoping to get confirmation on Tuesday at my first appointment
What size is baby this week? Wild strawberry, 2x2 Lego and a pygmy seahorse
Symptoms: Honestly I don't feel like I feel any. Sometimes not in the mood to eat and sleepiness (but I also have a toddler sooo). I honestly wonder sometimes if I'm actually pregnant
Rants/Raves/Questions: My patience this weekend has run thin with DD. She did not sleep through the night once this weekend. Last night she would only sleep in bed with us
GTKY: What sports do/did you play? When and why? soccer when I was 5ish, basketball in late elementary/middle school, and track in middle school. So nothing I was super committed to lol
How far along are you? 6 weeks
What size is baby this week? Sweet pea
Symptoms: I feel hungover almost every morning, but without the fun of the night before
Rants/Raves/Questions: No rants yet today, but it's only 8 o'clock.
GTKY: What sports do/did you play? When and why? Nothing nowadays. I've played softball, volleyball, and I was in winterguard and colorguard in high school and a brief time in college. I used to dance too. all of this was a very long time ago.
My Wedding Bio!
5 weeks
What size is baby this week?
Appleseed
Symptoms:
sore boobs, increased sense of smell, tired all the time are the prominent ones
Rants/Raves/Questions:
Can't wait for my first appointment (Tuesday). Had some bright red bleeding on Friday after dh and I dtd. The only thing that is keeping me from completely freaking out is that even though it was bright red, it wasn't thick (it was almost watery) and that I haven't spotted since then...so I'm hoping he just knocked something
GTKY: What sports do/did you play? When and why?
I played basketball and volleyball in middle school and I played basketball in freshman year (hated it lol), softball freshman through junior year and volleyball freshman through senior year. I was always a very athletic person especially in high school and my family in general loves watching sports so I basically grew up with it.
What size is baby this week? A cute lil raspberry
Symptoms: Morning Queasiness (is that even a word? Lol) Backache, booby ache, everything ache, bloat/gas, and light cramps. Im always starving... Im gonna gain 20lbs just in 1st Trimester
Rants/Raves/Questions: Im happy to hit 8 weeks but I hate constantly worrying. I wish i could get a u/s whenever i wanted.
GTKY: What sports do/did you play? When and why? I played softball from age 10-16 and cheered age 6-16. At 16 I wanted more time to be a teen, I loved my sports but I just wanted some freedom. I might coach again soon, I enjoyed it so Id love to go back to it.
What size is baby this week? A lentil
Symptoms: Nausea and fatigue. Also I believe I had the end of the day blump yesterday.
Rants/Raves/Questions: I'm still in the "am I really doing this again" phase. And of course at the same time constantly worrying about everything going well.
GTKY: What sports do/did you play? When and why? I played softball growing up... because it was what my older sister played. I actually don't like the sport. I mountain bike, road ride, and nordic ski - used to do those things competitively and maybe will again when the kids are older. I love running but I broke my ankle and it's really held me back
8 weeks tomorrow
What size is baby this week?
Raspberry (got that from one of you nice ladies who already posted...I'm too lazy to look myself!)
Symptoms:
Terrible, all day nausea. And all night. If I wake up at night, I roll and roll in bed because the nausea makes me so uncomfortable. Also lots of bloating.
Rants/Raves/Questions:
I'm just trying to stay positive. Baby is growing perfectly and has a strong heartbeat, but I have a large sub chorionic hematoma nearby, threatening to end all of this. I go in for another weekly ultrasound on Tuesday.
GTKY: What sports do/did you play? When and why?
Like a previous poster said, I'm very tall (almost 6'3"), so people always assumed I was a basketball player. I was an overweight teen and I despised things that made me sweat more. So I never played. Now though, I love to stay active and am very into fitness (when I'm not pregnant and banned from working out by my OB).

What size is baby this week? kidney bean/raspberry
Symptoms: intermittent nausea (worse after eating), extreme exhaustion, dizziness, ridiculous acne on my chest and back
Rants/Raves/Questions: Assuming all is well, I have my last appt with my RE tomorrow and will be released to my OB!
GTKY: What sports do/did you play? When and why? Volleyball has always been my sport. I've played for as long as I can remember, competitively through school and I've been on rec leagues since college, and I love it so much. I haven't been able to play as much since having kids and I miss it terribly! I also played softball from age 8-16 and ran track in middle and high school (I ran the 100m and 200m and threw discus and shot put... weird combo, I know, lol).

BFP 3/22, EDD 12/4/16 ~ It's a GIRL!
What size is baby this week? raspberry
Symptoms: constant nausea, some vomiting, and very tired (although that could just be life, haha)
Rants/Raves/Questions: Hate the waiting to tell people and the constant side eye at work when I leave for docs appts, because I feel like they all know (its what I would be thinking if a coworker was leaving biweekly for the doc, lol), and I actually kind of LIKE that my nausea came back because it lets me know something is still there! Its kind of comforting even if the thought of eating anything but bread and cereal makes me want to die.
GTKY: What sports do/did you play? When and why? I played volleyball in middle school, softball from 9 to 16, and kickball as an adult (several years ago!). Now I run (when its not winter) and walk with DS, and do some hiking. If goat herding is a sport, I also do that. Daily. lol.
