Friday Ticker Change 2/10

crazypuglady · February 2017

I think people have been forgetting to start these.. so I'll start today's!

This check-in is for those whose weeks change over today! Meaning your EDD is on October 6, 13, 20, or 27.

*If your week does not change over today, please do not post. There will be check-ins every day so everyone has a weekly check-in*

1) How many weeks are you?
2) How are you feeling?
3) Any appointments or tests this week?
4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
5) GTKY: Where did you and your SO meet?

crazypuglady · February 2017

1) How many weeks are you? I believe I'm 4 today

2) How are you feeling? Still have cramps on/off, and my boobs are sore, but not horrible. Other than that.. pretty good.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? Nope, Not until March.

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? I have to go over to my mom's for dinner tomorrow night. I do not know how I'm going to keep my mouth shut about my new pregnant status. Pretty sure I can avoid bringing it up.. but if she asks, my face might give it away!

5) GTKY: Where did you and your SO meet?
DH messaged me on MySpace (I know, I know.) He is from NY and I'm from MD. He had been in my area for a few years for his job and was looking for people to connect with in the area. We started chatting online for a while and decided to meet. Met up for lunch at a Panera Bread and ended up spending the rest of the day together. Neither one of us wanted that first date to end

Mommaswizz · February 2017

1) How many weeks are you? 6 weeks today!
2) How are you feeling? Still very good but very skeptical of this pregnancy for some reason. I still can't shake my worries. Emotions are running high but other wise, symptom-free save for occasional gagginess.
3) Any appointments or tests this week? Nope 12 more days till appointment #1
4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Nada.
5) GTKY: Where did you and your SO meet? We met in college but were just friends and lost touch. 4 years after college he contacted me to hang out and started dating nearly immediately. 4 years later we got married.

ETA: i had to unbold some of the font. It was jarring lol

@crazypuglady Congrats again girl and I'm glad you're in my ticker! Fx it stays that way for both of us lol. I'm sending you good luck vibes to be able to keep the news secret if you want tomorrow. I have zero self control and my mom knew about 1 hour after DH and I did lol.

@Mommaswizz I hear you on the skeptical. I have very few symptoms besides sore boobs either, and I think that's part of it. I don't "feel" pregnant yet.

1) How many weeks are you? 5

2) How are you feeling? Fantastic so far.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? My first US is Thursday at 5+6! Can't wait!

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? The cramping needs to stop it has me nervous and googling scary stuff. Step away from the Google, Jessi. But hello, weekend!

5) GTKY: Where did you and your SO meet? Work when I first moved to Florida 7 years ago. He had this beard thing going on and I thought he was so freaking hot. I still think that

It's Friday!

laeberge3 · February 2017

1) How many weeks are you? 6 weeks!

2) How are you feeling? Pretty good. Still have sore breasts, but for now the nausea is staying mostly at bay. My extreme tiredness in the evening has lessened a little, too, and while there still are some random twinges and cramps, that has lessened as well.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? Nope, first ultrasound is 2/17 - one week away!

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? It's Friday!

5) GTKY: Where did you and your SO meet? We met in high school, technically first through H's mom. I worked at the same place she did during HS and H would sometimes stop by and MIL loved me so much she pretty much offered me up to either of her sons (ha!). We didn't start dating for probably two years after that when I was a senior and he was in college.

Twilight rose · February 2017

@crazypugladyThanks for starting the thread today!

1) How many weeks are you? 6 weeks

2) How are you feeling? Feeling okay.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? US on Wednesday!

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Anyone else on progesterone injections?

5) GTKY: Where did you and your SO meet? We met on Match. I'm in Texas and he lived in Arizona at the time.

ShakeUpTampa · February 2017

1) How many weeks are you? Per LMP 6, Per Ovulation 5 (so not making ticker until OB appt lol)

2) How are you feeling? Tired as shit but then insomnia kicks in bad. Anxiety is in overdrive but working on keeping my BP down. I feel ravished a lot and yesterday through this morning tugging and pulling in back and front was bothersome. My nose twitches a lot too at funky smells.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? Other than chiro, nope

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Scored a new Mamaroo for $150! It was on my must buy list for #2 so both DH and I were excited about that. Rants: I can't let any symptoms show around family so I gotta learn how to be an actress real fast lol.

5) GTKY: Where did you and your SO meet? Plenty of Fish (before it was full of weirdos and people just looking for booty calls lol)

crazypuglady · February 2017

@bluejeanbabi05 - Yay! I figured I'd go with this EDD (the 20th) because I O'd SO late. I don't see the OB until March and even then I know they'll tell me I'm measuring early. Imma be like... nooooo... I'm not. lol If they change it they change it.. but for now, I'll go with my data

Yay for 1st US! I feel you on the cramps.. sometimes they get pretty moderate and in my back. Makes me nervous but I've decided to keep my mind on the positive. What happens happens and I have no control over it.. so it does no good to worry. Least that's the pep talk I give myself when the worries creep in!

@laeberge3, @Twilight rose - GL with your US next week!

@ShakeUpTampa - I feel you on the anxiety. I have managed GAD/Panic disorder. So far I'm doing ok with it. I'll feel so much better after the 1st Tri I think. Also- my coworker met her H on Plenty of Fish

dinosaur · February 2017

1) How many weeks are you? 6

2) How are you feeling? So sick

3) Any appointments or tests this week? Yes, on Feb 14! I'm so excited I can't wait for Tuesday.

4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
Question for STM: When did your MS get better?
Rant: MS sucks
Rave: my boss got bagels

5) GTKY: Where did you and your SO meet?
We meet as teens.

Raincity · February 2017

1) How many weeks are you? 7 weeks. Embryo is the size of a blueberry.
2) How are you feeling? Sometimes crushed by fatigue. Now I have this subtle nausea creeping in, everything in the world smells nauseating. But it's also hunger- sometimes I don't know whether a certain food makes me want to barf or devour it.
3) Any appointments or tests this week? No. Midwives here don't see you till there's a chance you can pickup the heartbeat on a fetascope
4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
My rash is going away, sweet, but my feet are slightly swollen! Already- what the hell?
5) GTKY: Where did you and your SO meet?
For the first time? At a mutual friend's house in Boone, North Carolina

feeislove · February 2017

1) How many weeks are you? 5
2) How are you feeling? So far today, ok.
3) Any appointments or tests this week? First appointment isn't until 3/7
4) Rants/Raves/Questions? My pregnancy rage is kicking in...
5) GTKY: Where did you and your SO meet? Plenty of Fish just like @ShakeUpTampa !

@Mommaswizz I'm pretty skeptical myself. In my case it's because I'm a 1/1 and I did NOT expect to get KU this quickly. Part of my brain thinks it's a fluke. Plus I'm not having any nausea or boob tenderness.

bluejeanbabi05 · February 2017

Oh Em Gee we have the best ticker group.

@Dinosaur Ah I hate that you're still feeling so sick! I hope that gets better soon!

@shakeuptampa @crazypuglady I third you on th anxiety. Mine was managed with very occasional Xanax, and just knowing it was there helped a lot. Now, obviously, I need to learn some different coping mechanisms.

crazypuglady · February 2017

@bluejeanbabi05-I underwent about 7 months of cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) with a psychologist. It's basically a relaxation technique where you expose yourself to your triggers and work yourself back down using the applied relaxation. I would have anxiety/panic out of the blue. Now it rarely happens. I do feel my self tense up when I get stressed, but I know how to calm myself down before it gets worse. I was on Lexapro for a while, but I was able to come off prior to the end of treatment. I recommend you look into it

ShakeUpTampa · February 2017

@bluejeanbabi05 yes, xanax for my grieving episodes since my Mom passed (and 9 people prior to her within 2yrs) was all I had and I can go to my primary for something safe for pregnancy but would rather ask OB what they suggest. I didn't have this anxiety last time around by any means.
