Re: wednesday ticker change 1/25

  • I'm 7 weeks along today and the baby is supposedly the size of a blueberry.  I don't have any appts. this week.  I am pretty nauseous most of the time but not actually throwing up.  I either don't want to eat at all because I'm nauseous or I want to eat all the things! 

    My RANT is that I have been sick for over 3 weeks with a gross head cold/cough.  I just can't kick it and the drugs you are allowed to take while pregnant suck.  This happened with my last pregnancy too.  My immune system just can't cope.  I feel terrible.  UGH.

    I don't know if I really have just one favorite movie.  I really like the Anne of Green Gables movies with Megan Follows.

    How far along are you? 5w

    How big is baby? Black Peppercorn

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? Less heartburn. Headaches on and off. Nips are sensitive some. Waking up early. Like complete exhaustion out of nowhere. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? 

    GTKY: What's your favorite movie? Easy answer is Dirty Dancing....

    GTKY: What's your favorite movie?

    I'm so so bad at picking favourites because I love so many different movies for different reasons. But a favourite that I've seen lately was the remake of Pete's Dragon! Really tugged at the heartstrings and was just visually beautiful :) 

    *additional rant: struggling with bold on mobile; apologies!!*

  • How far along are you? 7 weeks

    How big is baby? Blueberry 

    Upcoming appointments this week? No :( next thursday!

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? Nausea has finally hit me. :( I've been super exhausted and thought I was dodging the nausea train. But I'm not actually throwing up so that's good. I want nothing to eat but i know if I do eat I'll feel better. It's a vicious cycle. Ugh!

    Rants/Raves/Questions? This next week is going to go sooo sllloooowwww! And waking up to get my 1st graders on the bus for 7am is killing me! Especially after all three children have woken me up at least once that night. When do they all finally sleep all night consistently?!

    GTKY: What's your favorite movie? Idk Elf pops into my head. I spend way too much time watching Disney Junior instead of adult tv. Ha!

  • I'm 7 weeks! And baby is the size of a blueberry. No appointments for a few weeks.

    The nausea has finally hit. I was hopeful that it wouldn't be as strong for this pregnancy and thankfully it's tolerable. I'm also in the same situation where I either want to eat nothing at all or everything in my house!

    Lately I've been really cranky at anyone or anything that crossed my path. I feel bad but people just need to stop doing annoying things! Maybe I'm just a little crazy

  • I'm also 7 weeks, so the baby's about 1/2 inch long. 

    My first appointment is on February 6th, so I just have to twiddle my thumbs and wait. I think my nausea is getting a little worse, but my breast tenderness is a little better, so I guess it's a trade off. Still haven't puked yet, so I'm happy about that. 

    My husband's citizenship interview is this Friday, so things have been really stressful in the house this week. I can't wait for it to finally be over. 

    My favorite movie tends to change with my mood/situation, so right now I'd say that it's either WALLE or Mad Max Fury Road. It depends on if I want explosions or feeeelings.

  • MySallyGirl Congrats on being 7w1d! Uffda I can't imagine being sick with nausea and a cold too. I hope you can get back on the mend. Have you been doing any of the sea bracelets, or ginger candies etc to help with the nausea or has anything seemed to help?

    FutureBabyLMom Congrats on being 6w1d! The size of a blueberry is awesome! I haven't heard about mountain diapers...can you tell me about them? Love me some dirty dancing! :) 

    bswishe4  How did the Dr go? 

    mightymcqueen Congrats on being 7w1d!! Glad you aren't puking but sorry your not feeling good either! I can see why things would be extra stressful!! But I am also super hopeful for you guys! It is such a long journey and at least if he is doing his interview he is getting hopefully closer to the end. Hugs and FX to you! 

    zoester356 Congrats on being 7w1d! Glad your doing ok even with the nausea. 

    jessielegendre Congrats on being 7w1d! Sorry to hear that the nausea has caught up to you. Has the exhaustion gone away at all?

    rainbowturtles Congrats on being 8w1d! Love that is the size of a wild strawberry! How did your US go? So excited to hear about it! I am impressed you were able to do bold at all on mobile! 

    gabby94  Congrats on being 6w1d! How were your blood results? Any additional meds? Awesome about having your US! So exciting to see the little eggo on the screen I am sure! Nice that your getting to go in next week and I am so glad everything was healthy! 

    PurpleRains  Congrats on being 8w1d! I am also having strange dreams...any awesome ones you have been having? Have you been waking up much during the night? Love that the baby is the size of a wild strawberry!

  • Thank you to all for the well wishes!!! The ultrasound went great and was the reassurance I needed! After two losses and no beta draws or anything, this ultrasound was everything! Unfortunately my bladder was so full it was tough to relax and enjoy it and it was a bit rushed but all I needed to hear was it was measuring on time and the heartbeat was at a good rate, too! I'm so exhausted I've been lying down since I got home, but oh so relieved!!!
  • @BecauseLove Thanks! I feel like we've been constantly sending the government paperwork since 2012, so we're both looking forward to things wrapping up. He's really looking forward to having an American passport lol

  • @BecauseLove You must have known more than I did! As of the appointment yesterday she is estimating me not quite as far as I thought. She has me at 6+1 (yesterday) so you were right as of now I guess I am Wednesday Ticker change lol! I will go back in two weeks to check again since there are some discrepancy in our dates. Good Luck at your US next week! I will be thinking of you!

  • rainbowturtles  So glad the US went well! I can't imagine why they didn't do beta draws? I would be crazed if they hadn't done it for me. All us overachieves and the too full of bladders-0uch! 

    mightymcqueen Yeah it seems like the whole process is expensive, time consuming, exhausting, and often doesn't make a ton of sense. Glad your getting close to the end.  

    PurpleRains  Darn middle of the night peeing! 

    bswishe4  HAHA Love it! Well glad to have you as part of our little squad. Thanks for the support too! :) 

    I am freaking out a little as today and yesterday have felt pretty symptom free...which makes me anxious that all is going well with the little eggo. Also my parent in laws came and visited yesterday night and they got to talking about baby names etc...It was sweet but was making it seem way more real which then made me anxious.

    and because we had a CP around this same time this summer. I was having a moment about getting excited and how it might be jinxing things thinking this is real etc.

  • I'm 8 weeks... due date based on LMP is 9/6. We had an ultrasound already due to spotting and found out we're having twins! I'm sure I'll end up in the August group after talking with the doctor at our first appointment on the 7th. My favorite movie is Wild Hearts can't be broken. Other than super sore breasts I haven't had many symptoms which the nurse said I should be thankful for because most of the time she said twins can cause horrible morning sickness. Hoping everything is ok.
  • P.s. it seems like Wednesdays take forever to get here
