Re: First Week of Sept EDD Check-In w/o 1/18
How far along are you? How big is baby? Either 6w5d or 7w2d depending on what I go by! I'm sticking to this board, because either way I'll be giving birth the first week of September at the latest (I know the doc won't let me go past due date, based on my history).
How are things going? How are you feeling? Got a good ultrasound result, but a little stressed that the u/s dating was a few days off from the LMP dating. But I'm trying to just accept that this IS actually a real pregnancy, at least for now, and be happy about it instead of just stressed. Physically I'm nauseaus off and on, and the fatigue is real.
Upcoming appointments? Nurse practitioner in mid-Feb, then the doc in early March...although I'm waiting to hear if my doc wants another ultrasound to check the growth.
What skill would you like to master? Realistically? I got a sewing machine years ago, and I've slowly gotten better at making pillows and curtains and stuff. I'd love to be able to master it enough to just whip up halloween costumes or doll clothes! In fantasy land? I'd love to be able to REALLY sing.
When people come to you for help, what do they usually want help with? Schoolwork. LOL. Math and science in particular. I'm a big school nerd. Or if it's personal/relationship issues people usually come to me for some logical thinking things through about what makes the most sense, because they know I won't just tell them what they want to hear or go just by emotion.
How are things going? How are you feeling? Things are going well I suppose. Actually, I feel like straight crap most of the day. I'm down three pounds. Only 5.5 weeks until second tri and hopefully feeling better.
Upcoming appointments? Today. FX the heartbeat has caught up.
What skill would you like to master? There are a lot of yoga positions I would love to master. Pincha has always eluded me.
When people come to you for help, what do they usually want help with? Home styling. It's my job so a lot of friends and family like to ask my opinion on things they're purchasing for the house or potential remodels.
@mandymost You could have easily ovulated later than the 'typical' CD14. That would explain it being off by a few days.
How far along are you? How big is baby? 7w2 days or 6 w 5d.
How are things going? How are you feeling? Things are going okay. As long as I can keep my mind positive, everything is good. I'm feeling okay. Mostly exhausted, ridiculously sore boobs, and starving every 2 hours. I get nauseous if I don't stay in front of the hunger. All I do is eat.
Upcoming appointments? Not until January 25th. My RE wants to do another ultrasound to get a better idea on due date, since I'm not sure when I ovulated. My gestational age is 7 weeks 2 days but the baby measured 6 weeks 5 days.
What skill would you like to master? Hmm. This is a tough one! Maybe cake decorating, I currently do custom sugar cookies on the side and it would be fun to be able to do cakes!!
When people come to you for help, what do they usually want help with? Home decorating. I love to decorate with antiques/vintage items.
@MandyMost we have the same exact dates! I was told not to be concerned whatsoever about a few days. They also said it's so early and baby is so small that it's very difficult to get an exact measurement.
@SkilledSailor Sending positive vibes your way for a good appointment today!

When people come to you for help, what do they usually want help with?
At work, usually it’s editing or English related (I’m a former English teacher who still works in a school in teacher leadership).
