Thursday Ticker Change 1/5

ETA: For those unfamiliar, your ticker change day is whatever day of the week that you start a new week in your pregnancy. For example, If you are 5+0 weeks today, then Thursdays are your ticker change days. You will only check in on Thursdays threads.

GTKY: Do you have any pets? Two cats! Pearl and Luna. We rescued them when they were tiny kittens.

@gavzillaxo If you check out another bmb's ticker change, there should be a note that explains what a ticker change is so everyone understands when they should post (and not everyday).

How far along are you? 5+0

How big is baby? A dot snail

Upcoming appointments this week? I'm doing a beta/progesterone today and another beta on Saturday.

Any new symptoms or changes? I feel like I have ALL the symptoms. Heartburn, nausea, gas, bloat, constipation, cramps, sore boobs, moodiness.

Rants/Raves/Questions? I still can't believe I'm pregnant! Also, I had my first PGAL dream

It was horrible.

GTKY: Do you have any pets?
Yes I do! Raider, 3 yr old Mini Schnauzer mix, and Dex, 3 yr old Dachsaund mix. The boys love to play with each other!

I am loving all these fur baby pictures!

How far along are you?
I'm 5+0
How big is baby?
An Orange seed
Upcoming appointments this week?
Nope. I don't have my first appointment until 1/27 which seems like forever from now.
Any new symptoms or changes?
So far I'm mostly just tired. Sometimes I'm super hungry and other times I don't want to eat but not really nauseous at this point. I had mild cramping for a while that seems to have mostly stopped. So I feel pretty good overall I think.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
I haven't gotten a flu shot this year and it seems everyone around me has the flu which is making me freak out. Have any if you ladies been advised on whether to get a flu shot at this point? I was thinking of waiting to ask at my first appointment but I'm not sure if I should wait three weeks or just call.
GTKY: Do you have any pets?
I have two spoiled rotten dachshunds named Bedo and Hershey. We rescued them over the summer and it was the best decision ever.

@SuzieMay827 My OBs office would say the flu shot is safe in ANY trimester and better safe than sorry. I've heard of people with repeat losses waiting until they were out of 1st tri, but I would ask your OB.

@Sugargirl1019 Thank you! I'll call tomorrow. That's kind of the way I was leaning but it makes me feel better to have another opinion.

ETA app ate my post!

Carebella · January 2017

How far along are you? 5 + 2 since I'm checking in late, just POAS this morning.

How big is baby? Apple seed.

Upcoming appointments this week? Hoping to hear back from the Midwifery center on Monday to see when they'd see us.

Any new symptoms or changes? Cravings, some nausea, exhaustion, cold chills, light cramping.

Rants/Raves/Questions? Kind of a rant? I'm a little stressed about telling some family early. My brother and his fiancé are working to pick a date and venue for their wedding and right now it would be when I'm about 37 weeks. They're two states away and were planning on me being a bridesmaid and our son being a ring bearer. No idea what they might choose to do, but feel like they should know asap in case they do want to change their plans.

GTKY: Do you have any pets? One dog, Zoe. And two cats, Ace and Callie. Still missing my dog we lost in December 2015. So we MIGHT add another pet before baby comes.

Sugargirl1019 · January 2017

@carebella good luck telling them! How do you feel about flying with a young infant? Maybe they'd push the wedding back another month. Moving it to August though would be too risky, and I don't think your doctor would give you a note to fly.
Are you flying or driving?

I had a loss in September and I'm terrified of this pregnancy as I don't want to go through that again. However..I'm due on the day I lost my baby so I feel hopeful.

GTKY: Do you have any pets?
I have 2 dogs, 1 cat, a mini pony, and some sheep.
