Re: First week of Oct (1-7) check in! 2/15
How are you feeling? exhausted, barfy on and off, not into food, moody
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? Today!!! I can't wait but part of me is so nervous
Any questions or concerns? Nope
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where? Nothing planned. *TW* we went to Scotland in Dec between our loss and this pregnancy so that will probably be it for us. It was a very much needed trip! *end TW*
When are you due? Oct 5
How are you feeling? exhausted, barfy on and off, not into food, moody (I will just steal this because, yeah...)
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? March 20. (nurse only informational appt on Feb 22, but not really counting that)
Any questions or concerns? Nope
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where? No...but making sure that with four at home and this one on the way that we plan regular time for the two of us.
How are you feeling? So far ok. Tired.
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? We had one on Tuesday and will have another 1 March.
Any questions or concerns? Not yet. But I changed my username but can’t figure out how to post with it!
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where? Nothing planned yet. This baby is an IVF baby and has been about 2.5 years in the making. After my 8 week ultrasound I will graduate to seeing an OB. I don’t even know when babymoons are supposed to be!
How are you feeling? Sick. Really sick. I never had morning sickness with my other pregnancies but dang, this baby is making me so nauseous. I actually just called my OB and I am starting a prescription to try to help.
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? Feb 26
Any questions or concerns?
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where? Nah- this is baby 3, child 4 for us. We do have a family vacation planned for July though
How are you feeling? Overall pretty good. After my u/s yesterday I have been feeling a little off but I am guessing things just got squished and pushed around so it just needs to relax. Lol
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? Next appointment is the 26th and she should get to hear the heartbeat!
Any questions or concerns? Thought I would tear up when I saw baby on the u/s as well as the blinking heart but I didn't. I was smiling like an idiot but DH didn't tear up either or not that I caught
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where?
Probably going to do a little trip, maybe to Texas.
We don’t have a babymoon planned but will be taking some family vacations this summer with our 3 kids, and I’m looking forward to that.
How are you feeling? Meh. Taking a flight to Atlanta today, so that should be interesting.
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? February 21, I can hardly wait!
Any questions or concerns? Not at the moment!
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where? This is a great question. I was thinking maybe we could rent a cabin or lakehouse in Upstate NY (we live in WNY) some time in the early summer, but haven't nailed anything down yet. Suggestions?
10/1
How are you feeling?
Tired and hungry all the time
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound?
Nurse visit 2/28
Any questions or concerns?
Any tips on not waking up starving in the middle of
the night and having to eat a snack? I have a snack before bed and last night I still got up twice to eat
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where?
Hadn't thought of this but depends on finances.
How are you feeling? Eh. Super tired and a bit nauseous. My stomach seems to have a constant ache.
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? 2/20
Any questions or concerns? Nope
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where? Nope. Nothing official. We already have a kid so we're doing a long weekend for spring break and a camping weekend in June. I don't think those count
How are you feeling? OK.. the only thing that sounds appetizing is sugar. Super tired.. (Or is that how I normally feel?) Still experiencing slight pains in ovaries from retrieval.
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? 8 week us next week, then transferred to ob (from re)
Any questions or concerns? I am on progesterone - every time I feel "fine" I find myself wondering if baby is still there. Then I worry about my worrying... It is a never ending cycle. This will be a long stretch to week 12!
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? I don't know... When is this safe to do?
Baby Blob due Oct 7!
PAIF 2+ years!
How are you feeling? Tired.
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? My first appointment is February 23.
Any questions or concerns? Nope
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where?
Not a babymoon but we'd like to do a little getaway just the 3 of us beforehand. ( SO, DS 16 months and myself)
How are you feeling? Tired and nauseous. The vomiting strikes out of nowhere and there’s been a few close calls in public. Hope I don’t barf in a grocery store like last time.
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? I had a second ultrasound on Wednesday. Was an abdominal that surprisingly showed everything. Baby is growing appropriately and officially called viable and I’m back to the regular OB track!
Any questions or concerns? I’ve been slacking on my mom duties to my two year old lately, so dealing with some guilt. I just don’t have the energy to chase and play these days.
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where? Not a babymoon, but have a few trips planned next summer if things go well. Have a family trip to Belize that we bought travel insurance for, will see if that happens or not.
How are you feeling? Awful...lots of nausea and losing my dinner almost every night. Tired, exhausted by 8pm. Still some periods of chills, but getting better. The occasional headache.
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? 2/20
Any questions or concerns? Just waiting til my first appointment, hopefully it will ease my anxiety (probably not).
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where? No, this is #2, so that would be too complicated. We didn’t for number 1 either though.
How are you feeling?: Tired and crabby
Next appointment?: Next Friday is an ultrasound/viability check given spotting last week.
GTKY: Nope, this is child 3 for us. We are traveling to DC in August though for a wedding.
How am I feeling?: Like a hot mess! My first prrgnancy I was tired that's pretty much it for the 1st trimester. This time around, I have had almost constant nausea, headaches off and on, more intense cramping (no bleeding), major dizzy spells, and now even heartburn all night already!
Next appointment: Tuesday, Feb 20th to see the OB. I had an ultrasound this past Wednesday (because of the cramping) and saw my little blob with a heartbeat
How are you feeling? Bloated, nauseous, crabby and tired
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? March 1st!!!
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where? Nope... maybe some camping with our daughter this summer in state but that's it
How are you feeling? Gross. All day gross. Not actually vomiting but gaggy all day. Must eat small things all day otherwise get more nauseous. Grumpy, tired, bloated... it all sucks
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? First appt is set for Feb 27 and I will have an ultrasound. Pretty excited. DH will come with me to this one.
Any questions or concerns? Just wanna make sure there's only 1 in there lol Same concern as last time. Give me all the kids but twins kinda freaks me out.
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where? I was thinking that maybe DH and I can take DD to the beach in May. My boss has a beach house we usually go to every year in October but we haven't ever taken little.
Me 32 and DH 40
Fur-baby named Bella
1 MC Nov. 2013
DD born Nov. 2, 2014
Little 2 EDD Oct. 1
How are you feeling? Fine, except for this head cold. Luckily it hit the day before a long weekend, I guess?
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? First u/s was Wednesday! Measuring right on track
Any questions or concerns? Does it really take longer to get over colds now? This one feels like a doozy.
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where? Not sure, but I hope so!
How are you feeling? Morning sickness has reared its ugly head, so lemon water has become my new best friend. I'm also extremely fatigued.
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound? My first ultrasound is on 2/22 and my next appt with the OB is on 3/2.
Any questions or concerns? Just patiently waiting to see that little heartbeat on the ultrasound on 2/22.
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where? We will be taking our normal family vacation to OCNJ this summer. I'm happy because this time I won't be 8 months pregnant during it.
10/1
How are you feeling?
Overall nauseous with food aversions- specifically chicken, ick. A little better this morning so far.
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound?
2/22, so this thurs.
Any questions or concerns?
No, just nervously awaiting first US appt.
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where?
Probably not a big destination trip, more likely local adventures.
10/3
How are you feeling?
Pretty awesome. I’m not having any symptoms at the moment other than having inexplicably turned into a picky eater.
When is your first/next appointment/ultrasound?
Next appointment is at 12w, March 23. Ultrasound is at 20w.
Any questions or concerns?
Nope. I’m just trying to get started figuring out day care and some legal things. /TW - discussions of death & mental health/ One of my friends briefly wondered if he should be directing me to the suicide hotline when I informed him that it was weird that I am simultaneously planning to give birth and die. I had to clarify that I have to figure out a guardian for the baby if something happens to me, and set up a trust to take care of them.
GTKY: are you taking a babymoon? If so, where?
Not really a babymoon, but me & my bug spray are currently on a girls’ weekend with my Mom and SIL in Cancun.
The incidence of Zika has dropped off significantly in the last two years, and the winter months had the lowest rate to begin with. Honestly, the whole trip, I was more worried about food poisoning than zika. I haven’t seen a single mosquito (nor have my Mom or SIL, who skipped the bug spray).
@knottieamusements - We still went on our honeymoon to Punta Cana in November knowing we were going to start trying shortly after getting back. I also looked closely at the CDC websites to confirm that Zika isn't as prevalent as it was in 2015. I hope you're having a fun time!
