bluejeanbabi05 · April 2017

@KDeola I had my NT scan Tuesday and asked the doctor if there could be anything negative from listening to the doppler every other day, and he said the only negative was if you don't hear the hb and freak out. Besides that, it's fine! So listen away, mama.

1) How many weeks are you? 13

2) How are you feeling? Starting two days ago, like magic, the nausea disappeared, and for literally the first time since my BFP I ate a normal, healthy dinner and enjoyed it! I was hungry all day yesterday, and I woke up today with energy. Happy dance.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? Ahhhh my next appt isn't until 16+4

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm happy it's Friday, and I am so excited that I get to see Kenny Chesney perform on the beach Sunday!!! I'm going to wear a bikini and give zero fs about my blump and surgery dimples.

5) GTKY: Do you have other children and if so, what are their ages? FTM

KDeola · April 2017

@bluejeanbabi05 thanks for the tip! And that's awesome you are feeling better! I'm jealous of your Kenny chesney concert! Rock that bikini!

Amesie13 · April 2017

1) How many weeks are you? 12

2) How are you feeling? pretty cruddy this week I had a stuffy nose, headache, fever cold over the weekend and then yesterday to today I have had a lousy stomach bug lots of puking and diarrhea (I know TMI)

3) Any appointments or tests this week? not this week I had one last week and my next appointment is not till the 27th.

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? I am still a bit freaked out that at my last appointment which was the first one they tried to listen to the heartbeat that we could not hear it. I know the midwife was not concerned and I have a slightly tipped uterus and baby seems to sit in the back anyways so I guess it is not as easy to hear at 11 weeks but I am still freaked out and sometimes wish I could just have ultrasounds every week just for the peace of mind. (I had a recent miscarriage back in Dec something that is always on my mind)

5) GTKY: Do you have other children and if so, what are their ages? no other kids

feeislove · April 2017

1) How many weeks are you? 13

2) How are you feeling? Fine. I'm still getting drained after lunch time. Other than the random puking on Wednesday morning, fine.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? Negative

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Anyone have a food that taste-wise doesn't bother them but ever since getting that BFP you can't eat it because it'll make you inexplicably sick?

5) GTKY: Do you have other children and if so, what are their ages? Nope, FTM

dinosaur · April 2017

bluejeanbabi05 - yay for MS going away!!!!

1) How many weeks are you? 14! 2nd trimester!!!!!!

2) How are you feeling? Tired and super out of breath.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? Not until the end of the month

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Just annoyed that I'm out of breath. I already have asthma, so I don't want to be even more out of breath.

5) GTKY: Do you have other children and if so, what are their ages? Nope

laeberge3 · April 2017

1) How many weeks are you? 14 weeks - yay second trimester @dinosaur @Mommaswizz!!

2) How are you feeling? Physically, okay. I'm dealing with some constipation issues still and it's uncomfortable. I had some crampiness yesterday which made me nervous. My anxiety is sky high in advance of our appointment on Monday, but trying to keep it in check. @KDeola I use the doppler about that often, too.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? None this week; appointment Monday.

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Rant: my MIL this week. We were at H's track meet (he coaches) and she was talking to a friend about the family. She overshares everything yet has not shared my pregnancy, which is good. But, *TW* she was discussing my SIL's recent MC at 16w and my step-SIL's loss at 20 weeks and someone else's loss at 28 weeks just in broad daylight. She knows about our loss, too and that I'm as far as I am; for goodness sake, don't remind me of these late losses! *end TW*

5) GTKY: Do you have other children and if so, what are their ages? No other children here - just two pups.

KDeola · April 2017

Oh man @laeberge3 your MIL definitely should not be sharing that information! I'm sorry she's doing that!

Lots of FTM with Friday ticker changes!

feeislove · April 2017

@laeberge3 I've always felt like it's rude and incredibly insensitive to talk about miscarriages around anyone who has experienced a loss.

laeberge3 · April 2017

@feeislove That's what got to me. With each, I was already aware of their losses, and they were all public(ish) knowledge so she wasn't spilling someone's secret, but why on earth would you talk about it with someone in earshot who 1) isn't as far along as they were with these losses; and 2) has a known history of loss. Ahhhh, MILs sometimes....

folamij · April 2017

1) How many weeks are you?
12 weeks!

2) How are you feeling?
Hungry.

3) Any appointments or tests this week?
None for another month!

4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
My DD skipped her afternoon nap and crashed an hour ahead of schedule. Hoping she doesn't think 4 am is playtime because I'm flying solo this weekend!

5) GTKY: Do you have other children and if so, what are their ages?
Yep! 10 month old DD.

ETA: TB ate my post.

ChocolateIsLife · April 2017

Yay for moving soon @mommaswizz! Are you staying in your same town, or is it out of city/state?

bluejeanbabi05 You go girl and rock that blump and surgery dimples! That sounds like such a fun concert!

@dinosaur is your blood pressure low by chance? They told me that is why I am light headed and out of breath. I was reading that more water is supposed to help, so it is something i'm going to try.

@laeberge3 I'm so sorry. That is so rude and insensitive of her to speak of that around you.

* Sorry I missed this yesterday

1) How many weeks are you? 12 weeks yesterday

2) How are you feeling? No nausea today yet woohoo! Still pretty tired, light-headed, and pretty much only a few weird and particular things sound good to eat. Everything else sounds disgusting.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? Thankfully no appointments this week. I had a pretty big one on Thursday and have a large SCH right next to placenta, so I don't go back until the 20th.

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? I hate sounding like that person, but I am frustrated that I am still losing weight, and the doctors are really getting on me about it. I think the main issue is that I had emergency gallbladder surgery a month before getting pregnant, and I am having trouble finding food that my body will process. I pretty much have immediate diarrhea after most meals I eat, and it is really becoming a PITA (literally)

. They said that the baby is getting what she needs from me right now, but that it will eventually wear me down if I don't start eating the right kind of foods. Anyone have experience with this? Wondering if I should reach out to a nutritionist.

5) GTKY: Do you have other children and if so, what are their ages? FTM

ladyglittersparkles · April 2017

1) How many weeks are you? Eleven

2) How are you feeling? Still sick all the time

3) Any appointments or tests this week? Had a check up, found HB by doppler, 2 weeks I go back for an NT scan

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Why is my MIL so set on us having a boy. I just want a healthy baby

5) GTKY: Do you have other children and if so, what are their ages? DD who is 3

Aquabride3 · April 2017

1) How many weeks are you? 11

2) How are you feeling? Much better than I have been feeling. Finally hungry and not as nauseous as I have been!!

3) Any appointments or tests this week?
Yes- saw my dr and couldn't find the heartbeat so did a quick ultrasound and got to see the baby move and hear the heartbeat!

4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
So happy to finally be feeling better than I was! Hoping my energy comes back so I can start working out some
5) GTKY: Do you have other children and if so, what are their ages? Yes my son will be 2 September 1

Mommaswizz · April 2017

@ChocolateIsLife oh man... having that kind of reaction every time you eat is miserable!! Is there any thing the doc could recommend so that you could give your butt a break?

We are moving about 10 mins away from our current town, same state! I am so excited to get out of our tiny townhouse before this baby comes but seriously the boxes are overwhelming. I can't wait to be done!

dinosaur · April 2017

@ChocolateIsLife - Thanks for the tip. I don't think it's a blood pressure problem, but I will check it out.

Ka++Lo · April 2017

1) How many weeks are you?
12 weeks (on Friday, sorry I'm late)

2) How are you feeling?
I've been feeling great all along, which is kinda troubling since PGAL.

3) Any appointments or tests this week?
Not until April 19, but I've already had two ultrasounds and we heard the doppler heartbeat at my last appt on the 30th.

4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
This is my first ticker change post, I'm going to try to participate more. I usually don't like sharing info about myself, I'm such a reader rather than talker. But I really like this group and thought I should start contributing.

5) GTKY: Do you have other children and if so, what are their ages?
Nope, this is our first.

flyingfall · April 2017

1) How many weeks are you?
12!
2) How are you feeling?
it's like my body can't decide if I'm over the first trimester woes. One days I'm feeling good, got my energy back and nausea gone, and them BAM! the next day I'm hugging the toilet all morning and barely want to get out of bed- I can not wait to get past this stage!
3) Any appointments or tests this week?
Had an appointment Friday morning- I changed Obs and absolutely love this new place. Everyone was so kind and involved in the appt. I even got to see LO bouncing around during the ultrasound, yay!
I did have a pap smear done on Friday and I know that can cause spotting... this may be TMI but I feel like this is a lot heavier than spotting. I'm still bleeding and it's been two days. Just curious if this has happened to anyone else? I'm out of town and hoping I won't need to go to a clinic or ER down here.
4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
Mix between a rant and a rave: I came down to Mississippi Friday night and my SOs family knows how much I love a Crawfish boil. So yesterday we had a huge crawfish boil and everyone came out and enjoyed the beautiful weather. Problem was my pregnant self couldn't even handle the smell! (His family doesn't know yet, we're sharing today) So the whole boil I was in and out of the bathroom from the smell... needless to say, I think the family knows somethings up.
5) GTKY: Do you have other children and if so, what are their ages?
No other kids for me yet!

@ka++LOwelcome to the thread! Always happy to see another person join in!

@mommaswizz yay for the move! Moving into a new place always feels so refreshing. I hope moving day goes smoothly for you!

joforyoga · April 2017

11 weeks
still feeling exhausted but not quite as sick which is nice.

No appointments this week for me. My next ultrasound and midwife at five it is on April 19

Rant? Chasing after my son and feeling lousy is seriously preventing me from getting any housecleaning done and it's making me panic on a regular basis when I feel my house is falling apart!

Rave? Excited to have the early pregnancy boobs back again :-)

My son Charlie is almost 18 months. His second birthday will be two weeks after my due date

ChocolateIsLife · April 2017

@Mommaswizz I'm basically supposed to be on a very low fat diet for the gallbladder. It is just challenging because sometimes the only thing that sounds appetizing is something that I know will upset my stomach. Also, dairy and bread usually give me trouble, so its been a frustrating stage, trying to figure out what to eat.

winterecho · April 2017

1) How many weeks are you?
13 weeks
2) How are you feeling?
Always nauseous and fatigued
3) Any appointments or tests this week?
Earlier this week on Monday
4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
I already have big boobs to begin with, why do they keep growing? I was a 38DDD and who knows now
5) GTKY: Do you have other children and if so, what are their ages?
Nope, this is our first
