Go!

cabu14 · May 2016

First time feeling nauseous due to pregnancy was today - when the hubz brought up mixing cut up bananas and dry cereal. Honesty - I think this would have turned my stomach even before the bfp. Why would you do that?!

nan814 · May 2016

Idk, cut up bananas and dry cheerios sounds pretty delicious right about now, @cabu14.

Mylitta · May 2016

I currently have minimal to no symptoms... my nipples are very tender, and randomly upset stomach that goes away in a moment. But I'm also getting over being sick... so the stomach thing is accounted for.

So I feel like I have to be thinking about it constantly, because there is nothing to make me feel pregnant. Literally the only thing that has changed is I'm not getting my period/the tests read positive. Anyone else in this boat? P.S. I don't want to only think about it... I have other things in life that I need to think about.

I can't decide whether to bump on my lunch or go to the book store to buy a pregnancy journal.

Eta.. @nan814 well go girl! I actually have packed Cheerios and a banana for snack today not even realizing haha. I def will not be putting them together.

@mylitta from what I can tell ( I have lurked a few bmbs) no symptoms is actually pretty common. Try to enjoy it!

HairBossMama · May 2016

Waiting for my car to get an oil change, thinking about all the questions I have at my ob appt today

@cabu14 just bump, what is a pregnancy journal?

HairBossMama · May 2016

@Mylitta my first time around I had very few symptoms in the beginning. Honestly there wasn't much difference for me until the end of the 1st trimester. This time I felt pregnant before my bfp. Everybody is different. You are still getting a positive test yayyyy

cabu14 · May 2016

@ashbozso something like this, sorry so big I'm obvi on mobil!

emerald24-2 · May 2016

@cabu14 what brand is that journal? Do you know where to buy it? I am totally a data nut and would love to jot down my thoughts in a journal like that! So far I have been doing one in Excel with intentions of finding a cute one someday and filling it up

nan814 · May 2016

@Mylitta I have no symptoms either. Even nursing my toddler I haven't noticed any tenderness when he latches or anything, it's all same old same old over here. Not that I'm complaining, the thought of sticking my face in the same place people shit is enough to make me want to vom.

BriannaE129129 · May 2016

@Mylitta I have no symptoms either, just the whole nipple thing. I feel as if I want to take a test every day just to make sure I'm still pregnant!

cabu14 · May 2016

@emerald24 I think the one I posted is a printable version I found on Pinterest.. Its a shop on etsy if you're interested in a downloadable format. I am planning to go to Barnes and noble tonight to see what they have.. If nothing I like I'll babify a normal planner..

Mylitta · May 2016

@cabu14 @ashbozso @nan814 @BriannaE129129 Thank you ladies! It's good to know that it can be normal. Part of me was saying just enjoy it, the other part felt like this was a massive cruel trick and I'd learn it was a lie at the US. I know. No logic.

@cabu14 I didn't even think about a journal. But that's amazing! I'm going to have to look now. Great idea!

nan814 · May 2016

Muh boobies are leaking already.

cabu14 · May 2016

This guy that I work with.. His coffee is really upsetting my stomach

ashanne88 · May 2016

@cabu14 I feel you on the coffee. DH's coffee made me nauseous this morning.

I had a dream I was a producer on the Bachelorette last night. My dreams have been strange lately.

Lol I had a dream that beyonce opened a sandwich shop in my town and she made my sandwich and I got mad at her for putting mayo on it - even though I didn't ask her not to.

cabu14 · May 2016

@ceclarlinetlo ahahahaha! That is an awesome dream made me lol!

*edit words*

Hi friends! Sorry, posting on here late! @Mylitta and others, I don't really have any symptoms either, although I do have a funny smell-related story from the day I found out I was pregnant:

I went to the local bbq place to pick up 8 lbs of pulled pork for the carry-in lunch that I was organizing the next day (which was yesterday--it went really well!) Disclaimer: I LOVE love love this pulled pork from this bbq place. I was actually not looking forward to having its delicious smell in my car on the way home because I was ravenous and knew I'd want to eat it instead of putting it right in the fridge to save for the next day. Well, when I got into my car and put the pork in, I went around to sit in the driver's seat, shut the door, and sniffed. DUDE, it smelled like straight up fart in my car. I thought to myself, "did I cropdust myself before I went in to get this pork? That is awful!"

And promptly realized that IT WAS THE PORK THAT I WAS SMELLING. Wow. I guess pregnancy really does change your smeller!

mjolk · May 2016

Random question -- I dont have a primary doctor currently. Do I just call an OB and ask if they are accepting new patients? Or can I just say I need to confirm a pregnancy?

ceclarlinetlo · May 2016

@mjolk I called and asked if they were accepting new patients and when they said yes I told them I needed to confirm.

scgirl6113 · May 2016

The zoo is not the place to go with my new nose. SO. MANY. SMELLS.

*edit words*

*edit again to say yyyyeah, I totally just bought this one: https://www.amazon.com/Embrace-Pregnancy-Journal-Nikki-McClure/dp/1570616817 I am a sucker for gorgeous illustrations so this one will be perfect!

@cabu14 did you find a journal yet? I just found this website detailing the "top 7 pregnancy journals" out there...https://www.motherrisingbirth.com/2016/02/pregnancy-journals.html

Several options! I might have to get one, I think that's a great idea!

cabu14 · May 2016

@kellybean1988 I haven't found one yet! The belly to birthday looks super cute! Thanks for posting that!! Im going Barnes and Noble tonight! I didn't make it out there yesterday.

lindsladle15 · May 2016

@MylittaNo symptoms here, either, buuuuut, @nan814 oh my word, I got up with my 11 mo last night (ear infection, ugh), and my boobs itched and I realized that colostrum was coming out of both of them. I'm 4 wks 3 days, and I have nursed since DD was 8 mo! Yikes.

eta: oops, HAVEN'T nursed!

gonetothesea · May 2016

These are the 2 journals I got, and they're awesome. I wanted something kind of quirky and not cutesy, and these fit the bill.

cabu14 · May 2016

Those are awesome @gonetothesea I can't wait to go! I have two hours left of work and I just cannot focus!

Yup! Me too. I once in a while get a brief moment of queeziness but it goes away. My breasts are tender but similar to PMS tender. My cycles are very regular and NEVER longer than 29 days. Well I'm already almost due for what would be my second period since getting KU. So other than a missed period and 4 very positive pregnancy tests really nothing.I'm with you. I think we should just take it in as being lucky

nan814 · May 2016

@lindsladle15 I'm still nursing my 15 month old but I haven't leaked since he was, like, 6 months. WTF BODY!

cabu14 · May 2016

Ok you all might think I'm lame.. But I didn't find one I liked so I got the stuff to make my own from Staples. I'm so nerdily excited!

HairBossMama · May 2016

Lol @cabu14 I appreciate your dedication. I'm too much of a procrastinator to do something like this.

I just bought the heck out of both of those.

hayhay2501 · May 2016

Jumping in about the earlier discussion about no symptoms. My only symptoms are being tired (but I'm ALWAYS) tired, achy boobs and a pressure on my hip (which may or may not be pregnancy related, as I shared on here in a different post I had it checked out by a doctor and baby is in the right place and exists). Even though I saw the baby (well a sack as it was 5 wks and 3 days), I still keep thinking every test could be wrong. To the point where I bought a pricey first response digital today to make sure AGAIN. I'm happy to say I've graduated from 2-3 to 3+ weeks on the test

.

i just needed to share my shameful pregnancy test splurge with someone! Ha

YESSSS. You're gonna love them!

mjolk · May 2016

I ate my usual cup of Chobani yogurt this morning and gagged and spit out one of the chunks of fruit. Oops?

cabu14 · May 2016

So I'm getting irrationally giddy - we are telling the parents tomorrow and maybe even my sister!! I CANT WAIT! It feels like Christmas

cabu14 · May 2016

AND the husband just made Strawberry Rhubarb Pie!!! OMG IT IS CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!

Oh man, I am so sorry you had to find that out the hard way.

We're staying in an AirBnB that is basically a little garden house inside of this elderly Danish woman's garden... the garden is massive... and she recently put down some fertilizer last weekend... we went out of town to visit another city that weekend and came back to the combined smell of fertilizer, some garbage we forgot to take out, and some of OH's dirty socks that smelled like they were starting to ferment in the heat. And I feel like that's probably only a fraction of how smelly a zoo must be.
