So I'm not 100% on due date, but after racking my brain and trying to remember and various options of "what could be", I really think I'm a solid 7 weeks along. No nausea, just "ick" tummy in the afternoons and some food adversions. I've been eating a decent sizes breakfast then much less at lunch and dinner time. Boobs hurt. TIIIIIRED. Doesn't help that we brought home 2 puppies 10 days ago :-/ I'm going to bed earlier but they often want to get up at the crack of dawn so I've been taking some quick afternoon dozes. Ready for my boys to go back to school so I can get some extra rest. They are older and being really good and understanding, but still hard on me. I want to do a few more outtings with them before school starts but I'm worn out quick.

Anyone taking zofran? I asked my doctor for a prescription to help me with the all day all night nausea and they called that in for me. I thought I read some not great things about it but maybe that's outdated info?
@isntthatspeshulI took Zofran with my last pregnancy and everything that I had read since 2015 says there is no proven link or risk for birth defects. I plan to ask my OB for a prescription at my appointment tomorrow.
My nausea isn't too bad anymore, but my breasts are a bit sore. I often wake up in the middle of the night feeling super hot (but without a temperature).
I've been spotting (brown) for the last 2 days, but dr. Said it's "normal". My 1st appt is on Monday, so I'm praying for the best.
I think I've asked this before. But honestly can't remember.
Is anyone else ridiculously cold?!?! It's shorts and tank top and still pass out from heat weather outside. And I'm inside wearing pants, a tank top, a t shirt, and a hoody. And I'm shivering!!!!
@HappyMonkey817 I'm the same boat, been trying a few things. Right now I'm trying pineapple because the Internet said it may help (apparently the same chemical ppl use to support implantation in the pineapple core is also good for digestion). Worth a try if you can keep it down!
@justkeeptrying lol I think we talked about this last week but yeah I'm freezing pretty much constantly and it is in the 80s-90s where I live.
@isntthatspeshul OB's around here are trying to avoid prescribing Zofran and prescribe Diclegis and one other instead. In the event of HG, they seem to prescribe Zofran. My friend took it with all 3 pregnancies and all 3 kiddos are fine.
@heatherdubrow How are you tonight? Hope the spotting stays away!
Is anyone else getting random skin tags all over? It is grossing me out. My neck, chest, side. I've never had one in my life until now! I think that's what they are anyway?
@justkeeptrying@vflux33 strange... im the complete opposite. I have been so freaking HOT. Although it's leading to some discomfort now I'm hoping this little one will keep me warm all winter

Yes. If they're bothersome, my midwife said they are very easy to remove.
@heatherdubrow oh gosh, said a prayer for you just now. Many positive vibes going your way.
@HappyMonkey817@chasingroygbiv I didn't know that was a pregnancy thing! I suppose it makes sense if tags can be related to hormones. Thanks for the head's up.
@vflux33@justkeeptrying I'm cold constantly now too... literally have an extra sweater over my legs at the office right now, and Chicago summers aren't known for their chill. I'm thinking it again might be related to low blood pressure?
Is anyone else having pelvic "pain"/twinges? I have been keeping up with this thread and don't remember seeing it. I'm 6w5d today, and I've been getting frequent on and off twinges on the right side for the past day and a half. They're not really painful, and they're nothing like period cramps, but I don't remember feeling this one in the past.

@chasingroygbiv I got one when I was pregnant with DS, and now I think I have a couple I may get throughout this pregnancy (just raised bumps right now). I thought it was the strangest thing, and at the time, I didn't know if it was related to pregnancy or age, but after I had my son, it went away! Now that one is just a little pink spot on my arm. Crazy, right?
@chasingroygbiv I had one right under my arm with DS and it is still there. I know that they are a "side effect" of pregnancy because a friend developed a bunch while pregnant. Ugh.
@heatherdubrow, just now seeing this - I hope you've been able to get in to be seen! I know it's scary. I had several episodes like that with my first. It's not necessarily always something bad, so try to hang on to that ❤️
***March '18 October Siggy Challenge: Halloween Costume Fails***
Got in to see the dr, did an ultrasound. Baby looked great but I have a low lying placenta and she thinks that is what caused the bleeding.
I'm so happy to hear this! This was exactly what happened to me with my first. I had another similar episode in second tri as well, and then the placenta got its shit together and no more drama the rest of the pregnancy. I'm so relieved for you ❤️
***March '18 October Siggy Challenge: Halloween Costume Fails***
Also started week 7 today and still no morning sickness? Anyone else not have it? It's odd because I didn't have a day of ms with DS either.
I hate you. I mean, oh... uhhh... how lucky you are! That's lovely!
(I hope you take this in the funny way I intended it. )
Lol! Although I feel one of the very lucky ones, I've heard over and over again that nausea indicates a healthy pregnancy. However with DS I had no MS and everything was perfect with him. But that doesn't mean I don't worry!

I am so incredibly nauseous. And the pregnancy migraine is back. It's a fabulous Tuesday.
