Mattel · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?
10 weeks - Lego man, petit four, cardinal tetra fish, kumquat. (Thank you Ovia Pregnancy app)

2. How are you feeling?
Overall pretty great. Nausea is about gone and it was never really bad. Still dealing with massive back pain and constipation. The RLP is intense - like Charlie horse type pain. It wasn't this intense with DD

3. Any appointments coming up?
First appt with MFM Monday - meeting the docs, nutritionist, CDE and having another sono. Also seeing nutritionist and CDE at my endo office on Monday. Repeat BP check at OB on Wednesday

4. Rants, raves, questions?
Finally done with progesterone today!!!!!

5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series?
I have a lot. Right now I'm watching Big Brother, really the only reality show I like. I love to binge watch on Series - OITNB, Shameless, Scandal.

codingchildhood · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?
9w, and eastern tailed-blue butterfly
2. How are you feeling?
Eh. Slightly better. Still nauseous, still puking a bit, but I've found carbs help, so I've been carb loading.
3. Any appointments coming up?
Not for 3 more weeks!
4. Rants, raves, questions?
I'm pretty sure I won't have an u/s until my anatomy scan, and I'm trying to be chill and laid back about that, but damn it, I want an u/s!!!
5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series?
I'm a big walking dead fan. Speaking of, I need to catch up on the comics...

fancybelmont · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 10 weeks, kumquat or strawberry

2. How are you feeling? Craptastic

3. Any appointments coming up? Not till my 12 week ultrasound on 10/3

4. Rants, raves, questions? Hmmmm, not really. I think it's interesting how less enthralled in baby stuff I am this time around. I'm not going to bother shopping or thinking about names until we know the sex. It all still seems a bit surreal. Anyone else feeling the same?

5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series? Shows that are currently still on that I love are Walking Dead and Game of Thrones. I'm making my way through Ozark too.

pghren · September 2017

@Mattel good luck with the multiple appointments
@codingchildhood sorry about no u/s till ultrasound, but if it helps my birth center does the same. I only had my early one because I requested it b/c my history.
1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?
11, lime
2. How are you feeling?
Tired. I keep getting tired and lightheaded, so all I can do is lie down
3. Any appointments coming up?
Nope. Last week was it for a month.
4. Rants, raves, questions?
Is there a not weird way to bring up that you're pregnant? We've decided to stay telling people after hearing heartbeat on doppler last week, but the topic just seems so awkward
5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series?
Of all time? How I Met your Mother

ekendall09 · September 2017

@mattel the constitpation is real. Ugh.
@codingchildhood that does stink to wait to see!
@fancybelmont we aren't finding out sex but I agree I'm less into the shopping and names this time around so early.
@allowachick sorry you still aren't feeling great

. I hope you get some sort of relief soon!!!

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?

11 weeks. Lime

2. How are you feeling?

Pretty good overall. Got a few headaches this week and had one bad night of insomnia but could be worse.

3. Any appointments coming up?

I see my ob on Friday for my IOB and then have and NT scan the following Wednesday

4. Rants, raves, questions?
Nothing of note

5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series?
I love scandal, greys, oitnb

mdwiny · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?
8 weeks; gummy bear

2. How are you feeling?
Same as I have for the last 2-3 weeks. Mild nausea almost all the time. Feeling weak, distracted, shaky. Some tightness in the chest. Vivid dreams. Waking up a lot at night. But no puking at all so far (fingers crossed).

3. Any appointments coming up?
Next ultrasound and genetic screening at 10 weeks.

4. Rants, raves, questions?
Just impatient for the next ultrasound, like all of you!

5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series?
I love Westworld, Fargo, The Leftovers, Archer, and Catastrophe.

MrsF1017 · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?
9 weeks, a cherry
2. How are you feeling?
Not so good. Headaches and nauseous a lot.
3. Any appointments coming up?
Not until October 12
4. Rants, raves, questions?
Not much today
5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series?
Definitely Grey's and OITNB. I also enjoy cooking shows.

codingchildhood · September 2017

@allowachick my midwife with my first pregnancy did an ultrasound almost every appointment (which is crazy overkill!), so this is quite the adjustment. I'm sure I can request one at my next appointment if I'm feeling really antsy at that point. I'm trying to be all relaxed and chill about it though, lol.

saralee797-2 · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?
12 weeks! A plum, macron, bottle of OPI nail polish
2. How are you feeling?
I have been getting headaches and Tylenol won't touch it. Anyone find anything that works?! Energy is better and no more MS!
3. Any appointments coming up?
Not until 14 weeks now.
4. Rants, raves, questions?
Also done with progesterone @Mattel
5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series? @allowachick I am on the last season of HIMYM and I love it. I'll be sad when there are none left! Definitely looking forward to Walking Dead coming back @codingchildhood @fancybelmont sooon right?!

pghren · September 2017

@saralee797-2 when there are none left you just start over!

rklinge0 · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 8 weeks
2. How are you feeling? boobs aren't as sore but nausea came back and since it's gotten warm again, extremely hot
3. Any appointments coming up? not until Oct.
4. Rants, raves, questions?
rant: ran yesterday and it was awful, I only did 3.5 miles but felt like I was going to vomit the whole time
Rave: tw I made it past my date for my miscarriage; it was 7.5 end tw

5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series? I watch a lot of Netflix and hulu so I usually pick a show and watch it all the way through

On the ladies who are talking about ultrasounds, I am hoping this time I have a lot less. At the end of my last pregnancy, I had to have one almost every week and it was awful, they would get mad cause baby wouldn't cooperate and I would pass out due to being on my back.
This time they told me no dating ultrasound, but I will ask for nt scan because dd's heart defect was never seen ( probably the biggest shock of her diagnosis). I may ask for an echo too.

I'm sorry you have a hard time with ultrasounds. I had my last baby in 2011, and I only had 2 ultrasounds with her and only one with my son who was born in 2009. It seems that they do a lot more than they used to. I'm going to have at least 3 this pregnancy, and that seemed like a lot to me. I hope that your NT testing goes well. Hopefully you'll just have your 20 week ultrasound after that and you can be finished.

herecomesthe4th · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?
11 weeks a lime
2. How are you feeling?
Headaches, tired and nausea!

3. Any appointments coming up?
Appointment this week!
4. Rants, raves, questions?
not that I can think of

5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series?

We just started This is us on Netflix, also enjoy Project Runway!

pghren · September 2017

@AlaurenE perfect timing on This is Us it's back this fall

rklinge0 · September 2017

Thanks @fancybelmont. Hoping for an uneventful pregnancy this time.
I am a few weeks behind but with my first I had started stocking up on nursery decor by this time. This time I have literally bought nothing. I am waiting for my 1st appointment to buy stuff.

jkatkins · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?
11 weeks. A lime.

2. How are you feeling?
Still awful. I just want to have an appetite and like food again.

3. Any appointments coming up?
Oct 2nd.

4. Rants, raves, questions?
Anyones stomach make super loud gurgling sounds? This has been going on for a while especially if I haven't eaten in a few hours or right after I have eaten. They get so bad and strong sometimes it even hurts!! Annoying!!

5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series?

Of all time GOT

whatabout2ndbreakfast · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 11+2, a lime or a spoonful of peanut butter

2. How are you feeling? I think MS is finally gone!! I don't want to get too excited here but I've gone from feeling sick to just not wanting to eat anything, and I think that's an improvement. I do have RLP that is much worse than with my first, but I guess that is normal.
@Mattel I definitely had that RLP charlie horse yesterday! My DS pushed me over (not hard, just playing around) and I just went down the wrong way and that was the worst it's been.

3. Any appointments coming up? Not until October

4. Rants, raves, questions?

5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series?
I've been patiently waiting for fall tv to come back. I love Outlander, Project Runway, and Masterchef.

@codingchildhood Aww I'm sorry you have to wait til the anatomy scan for an u/s! They don't do one at your first appointment just to make sure everything is ok?
@fancybelmont how is Ozark? I've heard good things
@allowachick if you figure out a not weird way to tell people, please share. Not sure if I'll get away with waiting until everyone notices this time
@mdwiny Westworld!! I forgot about that show. It's great! Is there a new season this year?
@rklinge0 that's crazy they made you keep getting u/s when you would pass out!
@AlaurenE I love This Is Us! It makes me cry normally though, so I'm probably going to be a sobbing mess every episode with all the feelings I have right now lol
@jkatkins I haven't gotten there yet with the stomach gurgling... I'm only just starting to find food pleasing again

pghren · September 2017

@peppersmith22 yay to no more morning sickness! AFM I'm playing today by ear as to whether or not to take my nausea meds

whatabout2ndbreakfast · September 2017

@allowachick it's great to feel sort of human again!

BarefootContessa · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?
8 weeks. A raspberry.

2. How are you feeling?
A little bit worse on the nausea. I'll take it, as long as I"m not throwing up. The exhaustion is real this go around.

3. Any appointments coming up?
YES! FINALLY getting my ultrasound on Friday.

4. Rants, raves, questions?
I'm just so excited for this weekend. Friday is my ultrasound and DH and I leave for a kid-free trip on Saturday. It will be the first time we've left our kids for more than one night.

5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series?

Ugh. Too many. I love Parenthood, Seinfeld, This is Us, GoT...

buttercup0525 · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?
10 weeks. Baby is the size of a golden snitch.

2. How are you feeling?
Meh. I'm starting to have a few good days at least. I'm not throwing up as much as before, just a few times a day now. Nausea is almost always there though.

3. Any appointments coming up?
Another sonogram on 9/25 with an OB exam. This appointment will also determine if I switch doctors.

4. Rants, raves, questions?
Ugghhh. HG sucks and I have no idea how women can do it again and again.

5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series?
Supernatural! I also like Grey's Anatomy, Vampire diaries (until the last season or so. Bleh.), How I met your mother, friends, Special Unit 2 (which very few people know about...). Umm. I like a lot of shows and could just keep naming them lol.

pghren · September 2017

@buttercup0525 a golden snitch! How cool! I'm sad I missed that comparison. Why would you need to switch providers?

sunshine27shy · September 2017

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?
9 weeks size of a green olive
2. How are you feeling?
I am ok sometimes but most of the time I'm nauseous and don't hold down a lot of food
3. Any appointments coming up?
Oct 5th
4. Rants, raves, questions?
I am really annoyed that I can't really eat. My poor husband I haven't cooked in weeks and he has had to do it all.
5. GTKY: Favorite TV show or series?
Grey's, friends, Gilmore girls, boy meets world

jkatkins · September 2017

@sunshine27shy my husband has been doing all the cooking since I was about 6.5 weeks and I'm 11 now. I literally just can't do it. Make me so Ill. I can hardly open the fridge without wanting to vomit!! Thank God for awesome hubby's!!

mdwiny · September 2017

@peppersmith22 I think the next season of Westworld is due out in the spring. By then I'll have to rewatch all of season one just to remember what's going on... but I wanted to anyway.

buttercup0525 · September 2017

@allowachick I thought it was so cool when I saw golden snitch.
I'm not 100% sure I will... I just feel a little off about my current doctor? My first appt was at just under 8 weeks, but all we did was an u/s. Nothing else. I had also gone to the ER at 6 weeks for dehydration from constant puking and nausea, and even though the ER doctor actually called her, she didn't even know I went or seem interested in that fact that I had to go from puking so much. She immediately assumed I "panicked from spotting". I also called once after hours and the after hours doctor just acted like I was wasting her time (which turns out, ended me up in the ER again...) So, I'm giving her one more appointment to see if maybe it was just due to circumstances (they were moving offices the day I went in) and the fact that maybe the first appt was really just supposed to be so short (though I'm told that typically it's the longest...) With all that... I just don't know if I feel comfortable with her and was told I shouldn't "just stick it out" with a doctor if I didn't feel right.

whatabout2ndbreakfast · September 2017

@mdwiny Right? That's a long time to wait. And I thought waiting for Outlander was bad haha

@buttercup0525 That's disturbing! I would switch providers

pghren · September 2017

@buttercup0525 I think I'd switch too. The not charging about the ER trips seems weird.

herecomesthe4th · September 2017

@allowachick @peppersmith22 excited for the next season to start! Trying to pace ourselves so we don't binge watch too fast! Commercials make me cry these days so This Is Us is getting me in all the feels!

@BarefootContessa I can't believe I forgot to list Parenthood! Such a fantastic show!!!
