Re: Saturday Ticker Change - May 6th edition

  • 1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
    My due date changed by a day so now I go here. I'm 7 weeks and baby is the size of a blueberry!

    2. How are you feeling?
    My boobs are super sore and I'm tired, but that's about it.

    3. Any appointments this week?
    I had my first appointment on Thursday, which was not too exciting. Just a lot of talking and blood tests.

    4. Rants, raves, questions?
    I just wish I could see the baby or hear the heartbeat. Something! I have to wait until 12 weeks.

    5. GTKY: what's the one food you could eat every day for the rest of your life? (Stolen from Friday ticker change)
    Potatoes for me. Any form. Baked, mashed, french fries, scalloped, roasted, fried..... you name it and I like it!

  • 1. 9 weeks, and the size of a grape!

    2. I am feeling exhausted and nauseous, but so happy. Somehow managing to make it through work most days, since I really want to hang on to my time off!

    3. First OB appointment on Monday!

    4. I already had to buy new bras! We went shopping yesterday. I was a 36D or DD, and I bought some 36H's that are adjustable with more room to grow. 

    5. This answer would be different  if I weren't so nauseous and picky, but for right now it has to be pizza bagels. For some reason it's also one of the foods I can stomach right now.

    Due date 12/9
    I can't figure out the pregnancy countdown tickers, but I do know how to make a signature!
    #40andpregnant

    As of 12/15/2017, my new hashtag is #41 and pregnant!

  • 1. How many weeks are you? 7 What size is baby? Blueberry
    2. How are you feeling? Exhausted with sore boobs, but otherwise good. Nervous and hopeful that everything will go well.
    3. Any appointments this week? Nope, first will be May 15.
    4. Rants, raves, questions? I'm signed up for a triathlon next Sat (I will be 8 weeks) has anyone done a race while pregnant? Any advice? I notified the race director and switched my registration from Olympic (51.5k) to sprint (~26k). I'm planning to keep my PRE in a mid range and have my slowest finish time.
    5. GTKY: what's the one food you could eat every day for the rest of your life? Peanut butter.
  • 1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
     I'm 6w0d baby is size of sweet pea

    2. How are you feeling? 
    I'm nauseous 24/7 and decreased appetite.. I feel anxious bc I'm PGAL and trying not to get to attached and have my heart broken into a million pieces again.


    3. Any appointments this week? 
    I have a sono with my REI on thursday. 



    4. Rants, raves, questions? 
    I'm very nervous because my beta hcg has been much higher than expected 24,000 at 5w5d. I wish my husband would drive with me for a job interview I have 8 hours away but he says he can't afford to miss any work this week due to deadlines. Im also sad bc I can't fly and I've missed two conferences presentations that I've prepped for for a year. 

    5. GTKY: what's the one food you could eat every day for the rest of your life? (Stolen from Friday ticker change)
    Against the grain gluten free pizza with fresh mozzarella cheese.. 

  • Thanks for getting us going @moonlady-2

    1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 8 weeks, size of a raspberry

    2. How are you feeling? 
    Feeling pretty good for the most part. A little queasy from time-to time, and nothing ever sounds appetizing...but otherwise feeling pretty good.

    3. Any appointments this week? 
    Yes! First OB appointment on the 12th!!

    4. Rants, raves, questions? 
    Keeping this secret is really hard! Another 4 weeks before telling people seems impossible!

    5. GTKY: what's the one food you could eat every day for the rest of your life? 
    I could happily eat chips and dip every day of my life!

    @jackiesmom324 - I'm also PGAL, so I'm with you on not getting my hopes too high. Hopefully we are both in it for the long haul. (PS. That pizza sounds awesome!)

    This weekend was my oldest daughters last dance competition of the season (Dance mom here and so proud - it's nothing like the TV show) She is turning 6 next weekend and her group won 7th overall in their division for the whole competition. So amazing and so excited for them! I wasn't sure I was going to feel up to sitting through the whole thing but I did - thank you modern medicine and an OB that cares!

    @barrbaby-2 thanks!  :)

    @boothbaby4 have you told your OB about your morning sickness? You sound a lot like me my first pregnancy, I had no idea anything could be done to help. Maybe ask about diclegis? I'm on it this go around and it makes the MS tolerable - not completely gone, but allows me to get through the day. Hope you are feeling better soon!

  • @boothbaby4 I totally understand. I went to my OB today because I'm tired of being in bed all day, having acid reflux, heartburn and nausea. She told me to take 75 - 150 mg Zantac twice a day for the acid reflux and heartburn and she prescribed Zofran for the nausea since I've taken that before and it worked (I wasn't pregnant when I took it before though). I haven't tried the Zofran yet because the Zantac seems to have helped enough for now. I still don't really have an appetite, but my SO is about to make some type of pasta dish so we'll see how that goes LOL. At least I've been able to drink more water today. I still have acid reflux, but it doesn't hurt as bad. If the 75 mg doesn't work after a few days, I'll bump it up to the 150 mg. I agree with @disneyfan0511. You should see your OB if you aren't able to eat/drink enough. They will make sure that you aren't dehydrated. She basically told me to eat what I think will stay down for now (healthy or not), drink water and make sure I take folic acid pills. She also said if I still have trouble drinking water to try Pedialyte Pops which are like the little popsicles in plastic. 
  • Yes! But I have an 8 month old I was still breastfeeding, and diclegis is not a breastfeeding friendly drug. We were working on weaning when I posted this. Now we are weaned and I have started it! I had to take it with my son as well. It's seriously a miracle medication!! 
  • @boothbaby4 I'm happy to hear that!
