Wednesday Ticker Change 9/13

sandbar517 · September 2017

Your "ticker change day" is the day you switch over to being another full week pregnant (ie: 5 weeks instead of 4 weeks and 6 days).

If your EDD is 5/2, 5/9, 5/16, 5/23, or 5/30, this is for you!

1. How far along are you? How big is baby?
6 weeks sweet pea
2. How are you feeling?
The usual. Nauseated, hungry but no appetite, heavy and sore boobs, sensitive nipples.
3. Any appointments coming up?
Oct. 2nd with my new midwives group-yay!
4. Rants/raves/questions?
Rave- I'm so excited to be seeing the midwives. I called two weeks later than I called my old OB group and got an appointment almost two weeks sooner than I was supposed to see the OB. I had considered having midwives with my last pregnancy, but since it was twins, they recommended against it. I'm really hoping I have more say and control in this pregnancy and birth. Rant- We need to start looking for a new house now that we're adding a third and the beginning stages are a little overwhelming. Selling and buying at the same time plus worrying about finding a house we can afford in a good school district. Ugh.
5. GTKY: People have told me at different points in my life that I look like Kellie Martin, Jodie Sweetin, Sandra Bullock, and Hilary Swank. I can kinda see that Kellie Martin, Jodie Sweetin, and I had similar face shapes when I was younger, but I don't see it now. And I absolutely disagree with the others, they are way too gorgeous.

1. How far along are you? How big is baby?
7 weeks, a blueberry

2. How are you feeling?
Pretty good, tired but mostly business as usual. I have some bloating but luckily my scrubs are forgiving

3. Any appointments coming up?
yup, first OB visit 9/25, so ready to hear that hb

4. Rants/raves/questions?
Rave: so excited, a friend of mine who has been TTC for a year just announced her pregnancy, she is due a week before me! So excited for her (also, will feel much less guilty about telling her when we share the news)

ETA Hope that helps! Otherwise, there is another link in the READ THIS FIRST thread that explains it, too.

trauen812 · September 2017

@sandbar517 still didn't work right I don't think lol I'm hopeless but thank you!

sandbar517 · September 2017

@trauen812, don't get discouraged. @zaclina was having the same problem, and she finally got it when she switched to her laptop. Sometimes mobile just sucks!

rachelg777 · September 2017

Turns out they did change my EDD, I just didn't realize. I was measuring 6+5 on Monday so Wednesday is my new ticker change with an EDD of 5/2!

@sandbar517 yay! I'm glad you get a new OB and are on the schedule. Forget about the 1 US business. Good luck with the house hunt, that can always be stressful but I hope it's smooth for you.

1. How far along are you? How big is baby? 7 weeks, coffee bean. Babysizer says viagra.

2. How are you feeling? Pretty nauseous, no vomiting though. Tired and I get a headache at night. Soooo hungry which makes me more nauseous but then I eat and sometimes feel worse sometimes better.

.

3. Any appointments coming up? Next Tuesday I go back for a follow up ultrasound, because the babies HR was on the low side. I am praying for a huge jump. Everything else looked good and I was even measuring a couple days ahead of what I think was O date so I am trying not to be too concerned. Rambling ahead* I had my US appt Monday but had my initial appt with the OB last night. He said he wasn't worried about the HR but since I was we did another US (he's a saint). Of course it measured THE SAME. ugh. He still told me not to worry but they would have me back in a week to follow up. MH took a pic of the screen after they left which still had the measurement on it and long story short we think the actual measuring tool was off by like .03 seconds, (hard to explain) but anyway actually increases the HR by 4-8 bpm's. The actual bpm measurement is only made off of 2 beats which is like 1.15 seconds, so really there is a lot of room for error. Anyway, yes we are super over analyzing this but I'm just going with the higher number and am gonna try to be worry free for the next week. Sorry for the rant.

4. Rants/raves/questions? Rave: we finally were able to rent out our house! Huge money saver.

I'm super lame, I have no idea. But my twin sis and I were obsessed with Mary Kate and Ashley Olsen when we were younger, they are around our age. We're blonde, I'll go with them.

Eta gif.

@trauen812 scrubs are the best.

sandbar517 · September 2017

@rachelg777 I don't remember if I've asked you before or not, are you and your sister fraternal or identical? Any tips for raising twins?

rachelg777 · September 2017

@sandbar517 we are identical! hmmm definitely give them independence independent of each other if that makes sense. We were so close that as we grew up I think it was hard to figure out my life separate of hers.. No real tips though! I loved/love having a twin sister so I hope your girls love it too. It's such a special relationship. I would love to have twins!

sandbar517 · September 2017

Thanks! I'll probably PM you, if you don't mind, so we don't clog up the threads.

charlestonchew · September 2017

@sandbar517 due date and appointment twins!

1. How far along are you? How big is baby?
6 weeks, lady bug!
2. How are you feeling?
. Absolutely horrible. I need to do something about this constant nausea because I'm dying.
3. Any appointments coming up?
10/2!
4. Rants/raves/questions?
Please tell me how to feel better.

I think DH looks like Rob Thomas

1. How far along are you? How big is baby?
5 weeks today, and Squishy is the size of an apple seed.
2. How are you feeling?
. Ehh. Bloated and a little nauseous, but it could be worse.

3. Any appointments coming up?
I have my first on appt on Oct. 19th, but i am waiting for a lunch break to call and schedule an ultrasound. They told me I still needed to wait at least 2 weeks, so we will see when I get it done.

4. Rants/raves/questions?
I am 50 shades of done with work today. The computers were down for the first half of the day which has put everyone in a frantic, bad mood.

I haven't been told I look like anyone, but my husband gets told Jack Black and Chris Farley depending on the day. He's got the personality of either one of them, so it works, I guess.

I am late to the game.....
@sandbar517 The not hungry thing is getting to me. I just came home from the grocery store with tons of food and none of it looks appetizing. Is there anything that sounds good to you?

@trauen812 Wow, she announced early! Well at least you gals will have each other throughout the pregnancy to keep each other sane.

@rachelg777 I only know this from the HOURS of Google searching I did last pg when I had a low HR....A lot of women had much higher HBs the next time they went in. I think it's worrisome if you are under 100. And perhaps the HB just started the day before. GL with your next apt.

AFM
1. How far along are you? How big is baby?
7 weeks...blueberry, coffee bean.
2. How are you feeling?
. I feel fine. I've had spotting and bleeding this entire pg so I'm kind just like....what's next? Bring it! I did however wake up last night at 1:30 in the morning with a massive panic attack. I've kinda been on edge all day. I think the progesterone is messing with me. And we have been on a rollercoaster of emotions so maybe I am going a little crazy. Also, I am on pelvic rest so I cannot get out any of my extra energy. I just ordered a bathing suit online so I can at least do a little swimming at the gym because its virtually nothing more than gliding along in the the water.
3. Any appointments coming up?
We were usrged to come in next MOnday for a followup US because of my constant spotting and bleeding. I declined. THe US experience is just too stressful for me. Our next apt is Oct. 2nd when we will be 9.5 weeks.

4. Rants/raves/questions?
Nada.

sandbar517 · September 2017

@justsuzie it depends on the minute, tbh. Sometimes it's salt, other times it's carbs, right now it's a Whopper. Or chicken and stuffing. LOL

zaclina · September 2017

@trauen812. I tried the GIF thing for hours before switching to my laptop and then copy/paste GIF into the signature body. Good luck! I tried for hours, honestly. Also, my best friend and I were pregnant together w my first.... it was awesome.
