littlebug2010 · December 2016

If your a new grad, how long were you on TTGP? Not new but I was lurking for about 4 months and active for 4 months post loss

How far along are you? 6 weeks today!

How are you feeling? not too bad. Still super tired, and sore boobs, but adding in feeling funky most mornings (i think this is my MS). Basically I have zero desire to eat, and feel really gross, but then around lunch time, it starts to feel like hunger, so I eat and then feel better.

Anyone have an appointment this week? Nope, I have my dating US on Monday! I am excited and super nervous too. I never had an appointment **tw** before my loss, and so I dont really know when it all happened or how far along I was **endTW** so I just want to make sure everything is okay!

Rants/Raves/Randoms We are so close to christmas! I can not wait! I go home for the first half of my vacation, right after my appointment on Monday! So exciting

GTKY: How long have you and you SO been together? How did you get together? DH and I have been together for almost 13 years (13 years in Feb). We were 14 and 16 when we got together! We actually met because DH's mom was my churches new pastor, and we started dating about a year after they moved! Been together ever sense. Married for 4.5 years.

How far along are you? 7 weeks today

How are you feeling? I had one great day this week where everything was awesome. Followed by the worse day of nausea yet. Still fatigued, peeing lots, and lots of CM.

Anyone have an appointment this week? Nope

Rants/Raves/Randoms DD decided to take a 3.5 HR nap yesterday but then didn't fall asleep for bed until 10:30 pm. Then she woke up screaming for me at 3:30 am and she didn't fall back asleep until after 5:00 am which means I didn't either. I'm gonna be exhausted more than normal today.

GTKY: How long have you and you SO been together? How did you get together?
We met and started dating in 2009. Married in 2011. We worked together.

If your a new grad, how long were you on TTGP? I was active from January 2016 til this BFP. But I lurked since we started trying in Sept '15

How far along are you? 5+3

How are you feeling? I'm still just always nervous! Today I've been getting some nausea which is inconvenient during meetings but also makes me hopeful for this baby!

Anyone have an appointment this week? Not til 12/26!

Rants/Raves/Randoms: I think my bloat is getting better.... or I've just already gotten used to it haha

GTKY: How long have you and you SO been together? How did you get together? Together for about 6ish years and married for just about 2! We met through mutual friends in college.

How are you feeling? Been nauseous all week..drank ginger tea this morning and felt amazing since. Even got my appetite back.

Anyone have an appointment this week? No

Rants/Raves/Randoms

GTKY: How long have you and you SO been together? How did you get together? We've been together since 2010...got married in 2011. Met through his brothers girlfriend who was my friend at the time.

Lmmtravels · December 2016

If your a new grad, how long were you on TTGP? 3 months

How far along are you? 5 weeks, 5 days

How are you feeling? Pretty good except major bloating and mild fullness feeling in pelvic area. Oh yeah, I was too tired to remember I'm totally exhausted.

Anyone have an appointment this week? I had a nurse phone call this morning that the practice does as a standard. Went over medical history and asked some questions. I ended up scheduling a bedside ultrasound for next Thursdsy since I'll be across the country for a full week over the holidays. They said 8 weeks is standard but I could come in earlier if I want...just hope it's a good appointment given that it's early. I'm nervous!

Rants/Raves/Randoms This is supposed to be a "slower" time of year at work and it's freaking insane. Lacking motivation and being exhausted is not helping AT ALL.

GTKY: How long have you and you SO been together? How did you get together? Married 5.5 years...met in our mid- late 20s and dated, got married two years later!

bumpybump · December 2016

@Shan870 maybe a dumb question, but does ginger tea taste like ginger? I need something to make me feel better but I don't like the taste of ginger

. So far I suck on Jolly Ranchers like I did my first time and it's working somewhat.

Shan870 · December 2016

@bumpybump Unfortunately it does taste like ginger. It is ginger/lemonade. I didn't like the taste of it either but I took small sips and let the rest sit so I could smell it...(heard the smell of ginger helps too). It was nasty but it helped.

bumpybump · December 2016

@Shan870 and they paired it with lemonade. That's something else I don't like

NYTino24 · December 2016

If you're a new grad, how long were you on TTGP? May-December

How far along are you? 4w3d

How are you feeling? Decent! No more headaches, but bloody nose #4 yesterday. Really praying I don't get MS. I start feeling weird when I'm about 15 minutes into my drive and then usually feel okay until I get out of the car and walk around. I wouldn't say I'm exhausted yet because I get tired in waves.

Anyone have an appointment this week? Nope, seeing the hematologist on the 23rd.

Rants/Raves/Randoms: I feel like my boobs hurt worse at night. Told my mom and the rest of my sisters I'm KU today.

GTKY: How long have you and you SO been together? How did you get together? We just celebrated 4 years of dating on 11/30 and got married in July. We met playing coed softball.

bumpybump · December 2016

@NYTino24 I got bloody noses a decent amount with my first pregnancy. So not fun! The worst was when I was at a fancy restaurant for work and got one while eating and it gushed down my face. Hope you don't get ones like that!

NYTino24 · December 2016

@bumpybump Yuck! Sorry you had to deal with that. Mine take a while to stop. *TMI I often have to shove part of a tissue up there to help it clot, or I swallow and cough up a blood clot.* /TMI! That's why I'm going back to the hematologist. I was diagnosed with a blood disorder as a teenager and didn't go back to a hematologist (a new one) until I had shoulder surgery. He said my bloodwork looked okay on BCP and then again when I came off. Gonna go next week and get CBC done. Hopefully I can also get them to check HCG level since I'm not seeing the OB until 1/12.

bumpybump · December 2016

@NYTino24 have you ever used cut up tampons to stop the nose bleeds? Our athletic trainers in high school always used them and as you can imagine, work awesome! FX for a good appointment.

NYTino24 · December 2016

@bumpybump yeah we used them in sports... I have plenty to use now that I'm pregnant and don't need them, haha. The only thing is I don't want to distract my 9 year old students! I have to keep drinking water, keep my heat down in the car, and use a humidifier when we have our bedroom space heater on. Other than that, I don't think there is any other way to prevent them.

littlebug2010 · December 2016

Hey TTGP Grads, just an FYI. Im on vacation the next two weeks, and I am not very good at bumping when not at work, HA. I will attempt to remember to post this thread the next two Thursdays, but if I dont, feel free to do it for me, or we can just pick it back up in the new year! Either way, Happy Holidays to all!

MaMinette13 · December 2016

@bumpybump have you tried chewing gum? I felt better than all the sugar from the jolly ranchers, and it seemed to do the trick for me last time.

bumpybump · December 2016

@MaMinette13 no, I haven't tried gum. I haven't chewed gum in so long. We don't have any in our house. I just bought a new bag of Jolly Ranchers today but maybe I'll get some gum too later.

MaMinette13 · December 2016

If your a new grad, how long were you on TTGP?

3 weeks (I feel a little weird calling myself a grad) but I lurked for a month and a half before that.

How far along are you?

7+1

How are you feeling?

All day mild nausea, but not super terrible. I honestly can't tell if the tired is from the pg, having an almost 1 year old who still wakes to nurse 2-4 times a night, or that it is the last day of class (5th grade) before winter break.

Anyone have an appointment this week?

Had one yesterday! They did an u/s and I got to see the heartbeat!!! So exciting. He said everything looked exactly like it should look, which took a huge weight off my shoulders, because I had been having panic attacks.

Rants/Raves/Randoms

I don't know it this a rant or a rave....but we are flying from CA to FL on Monday to spend Christmas with my parents. I haven't wrapped a single present (but that are 99% bought, just need 1 for my cousin), packed a single bag, and my house is a mess!! I hope DH is on it this weekend, because with first tri exhaustion and chasing an almost 1 year old, I don't know how it's going to get done. But, then on Tuesday I get to be in FL where its in the 80's!!!

GTKY: How long have you and you SO been together? How did you get together?

We met in 2011, dated for about 3 months, then broke it off. Reconnected in Feb of the next year, and were married in Nov. of 13. So, we've officially been together for almost 5 years. We met on line through the OkCupid dating site.
