Re: 1st Tri Checkin - w/o October 1
How are you feeling? Just ok. I thought I was getting over 1st tri nausea but it and MS came back this weekend. I have a hard time finding food that sounds good. Blah.
I also went and got fitted for new bras the other day. The one I was wearing was 3 sizes too small. I can't express how much more comfortable I am!
Any recent / upcoming appointments? NT scheduled in two weeks
Thoughts/Concerns? Questions: None right now!

GTKY: Stealing from 2nd Tri - Where do you live? American living in Egypt 😋
Normally I feel so so sick even with my chemical pregnancies. This one I feel so normal... Waiting for 6 week scan now
@rozpre welcome! I love Mass, too, been a minute since I've been up there, tho... GL on Tuesday! You must be graduating from the RE soon, no?
@agaun I had very few symptoms in the beginning, either. The only thing I even noticed was feeling winded going up and down the steps with the laundry! And I just thought I must be getting out of shape; took me a second to put two and two together. Lol Not feeling sick is totally okay! Fx for a completely new and happy journey this time around! ;)
@bpietronicco How are you feeling? Did you manage to keep that cold at bay?
@justharrison how did your apt go on the 4th? Oof, I just realised, maybe there's a more current checkin thread going... :#
@madasm0530 ooh, yas to new bras! Once I had well-fitting bras, plus bra extenders, I was able to use those to get through the entire pregnancy!
@ellyahmedali how cool! Have you been in Egypt long? I have a friend I met on here once upon a time who is Canadian and lived in Egypt for a time, as well. Small world. Are you teaching?
@ellyahmedali I’d love to visit Egypt! Hope you are enjoying!
First appt with my OB Tuesday. Had some ever so slight brown spotting today so super nervous about that. OB said I could come in for an u/s before my appt. trying to rest
Fingers crossed for you that everything is alright.
