Re: Friday Ticker Change - (Due dates 12/7, 12/14, 12/21, 12/28
2. Any appointments? Next Tuesday! Nurse appt and dr appt. I will have an ultrasound.
3. How are you feeling? I am so tired. I think part of it is the unisom - I might try to cut it in quarters. However, it reduces my nausea so it’s worth it to be a little sluggish. I also have waves of nausea. I don’t want any food, but then I’m also hungry. I want ice cream, but only Ben and Jerry’s.
4. What am I looking forward to the most in pregnancy? I actually really enjoy being pregnant...the first tri is tough though. I can’t wait to have a belly and feel baby kicks. I miss that so much. I’m super excited for that time. Also the return of my energy in 2nd tri!
6 weeks! Sweet pea
2. Any appointments coming up?
I have my first US Monday.
3. How are you feeling symptoms wise?
exhaustion has taken over. All day sickness is kickin my butt. But I’m taking every symptom as a positive.

I’m excited to be able to enjoy this pregnancy. With my 2 others, they were high risk and stressful. I know it could happen again, but I’m being optimistic ❤️
I just found out, so I'm thinking 3-4 weeks - a poppy seed? I can't remember... XD
2. Any appointments coming up?
None yet.
3. How are you feeling symptoms wise?
Pretty good so far, except for being a little more tired than usual.

Should this pregnancy carry on, I'm really looking forward to enjoying this one. My last one was filled with a lot of worry and anxiety. Since this will very likely be the last baby, I'd like to ride this one through with ease and joy.
4 weeks! Poppy seed ❤
2. Any appointments coming up?
I just scheduled my first for April 30.
3. How are you feeling symptoms wise?
My biggest symptom is caffeine withdrawal. I am a coffee addict and the headache is killing me. I know I'll adjust in a few days but ahh.

Other than the whole bonding with a little one, I'm really excited about not having a flabby tummy lol. I don't wear tight shirts normally bc I'm so self conscious of my stomach, but when I'm pregnant I just embrace the bump
7 weeks and baby is .5 inches -- that seems pretty big!
2. Any appointments coming up?
My first official US is scheduled for Tuesday, 5/1. I am going to Kentucky for a work thing next week and I'm considering calling my OB to ask if I can come in for one before that since I've been spotting on and off. I do not want to end up in an ER in Kentucky (no offense to anyone who lives in Kentucky, I'd just be there alone).
3. How are you feeling symptoms wise?
Nausea has been on and off, but hasn't gotten to the point where I am vomiting. I'm sleeping very poorly and my nipples are sore. I have to pee constantly.

Hmm I guess sharing the news with people? I am not actually looking forward to pregnancy itself as it seems pretty horrible to me. It will be fun to track how big the baby is growing and see the baby on US, but also probably anxiety-inducing.
1. How far along are you? How big is baby?
6 weeks, size of a sweet pea/pomegranate seed
2. Any appointments coming up? Getting closer! First OB appointment is in a week and a half - May 1st. I don't know what's worse - the TWW or this..
3. How are you feeling symptoms wise? Same as I have been pretty much since I found out. Completely and totally exhausted. My cramping seems to have subsided a bit. No real bad nausea. I get little tiny waves but it might be psychological/unrelated to pregnancy since I am very self aware of everything right now. My boobs have really stared to fill in but aren't that sore.

FTM here so really I'm looking forward to everything! I've wanted to be pregnant, not just have a baby, but be pregnant for a looonng time. I can't wait to have a proper bump and feel the baby. I also am looking forward to buying baby things!
We made it another week!!! And it's Friday - woo! How are you all feeling?
1. How far along are you? How big is baby?
7 weeks a blueberry
2. Any appointments coming up?
May 10th is my first appointment.
3. How are you feeling symptoms wise?
I am very tired and I get sick if I wait too long to eat. It hasn't been too bad yet. I'm hoping it does get any worse.

Sharing the new with my children. I am also very excited about completing our family.
5 weeks, 4 days - an apple seed
2. Any appointments coming up?
My first appt is May 2nd, when I think I'll be 7 weeks, 2 days. It's TORTURE waiting for the appointment!
3. How are you feeling symptoms wise?
I've had horrible fatigue but that's been okay the past 3 days or so, awful bloating (seriously - I can't understand why no one else can see this bloating, there's only one pair of work pants that even feels remotely comfortable). Just today my nipples have been super sensitive with one 10 min moment of "nipples on fire" feeling. I'm not looking forward to nausea or sore breasts... but it'll be a relief to get the symptoms so I know things are progressing, lol.
4. GTKY - I know we focus on the bad a lot during the first trimester (bc it's horrible) but what are you guys looking forward to the most about this pregnancy?
EVERYTHING! I'm so excited to get a little bump and feel the baby move, I'm excited to be able to talk to my friends about it in a couple of months since they'll be able to provide so much support (many of them have kids), and finally to meet the little guy/gal in December!
7 weeks! a wee raspberry - whatever that means
2. Any appointments coming up?
None yet.. actually called today to set something up now that my insurance is all figured out but the clinic is closed on Fridays. Go figure!
3. How are you feeling symptoms wise?
AWFUL! this wee has been the worst thus far. My nausea is absolutely terrible. The moment I'm hungry, I'm sick. Plus lightheaded, constipation, lots of low back pain.. and if I even look at a glass of water I have to pee. I think the first trimester is my least favorite. I prefer labor to this shit.
4. GTKY - I know we focus on the bad a lot during the first trimester (bc it's horrible) but what are you guys looking forward to the most about this pregnancy?
I love feeling the baby move.. it is my favorite part. Its so incredibly special, cuz no one else will feel it like you will. I'm told you feel it earlier and earlier with each baby - this is my 3rd so fingers crossed it won't be too far off!
2. Any appointments coming up? I had my dating scan today. Heart beat was 164 bmp. Dating is right in track with lmp dating.
3. How are you feeling symptoms wise? Some nausea here and there. Freezing all the time. Tired. I have a stiff neck. It's bad and won't go away. I know that's strange to list under symptoms but this also happened with my first right around this time. Some days I'm starving. Other days I can barely eat. I'm also peeing a lot at night...already!
4. GTKY - I know we focus on the bad a lot during the first trimester (bc it's horrible) but what are you guys looking forward to the most about this pregnancy? I'm looking forward to feeling baby move and wondering if I'll feel it earlier now with my second, finding out the gender, buying tiny infant clothes.
