Re: Group 1 Check-In (EDD June 1st-8th) w/o 10/1

  • Due date/W+D: Due 6/6 and 5 weeks today

    Baby is the size of a(n): Baby is the size of an apple seed

    Any appointments? Questions?: My first appt. is 10/24.  I'll be almost 8 weeks then. 

    Rants/Raves?: Rant, I'm exhausted today. MH and I only got five hours of sleep last night because ds was up for three hours!  And I have no clue why he wouldn't sleep. Maybe teething, maybe hungry but those are just guesses. Hopefully tonight is better. I feel bad for the poor little dude that he couldn't sleep.

    How are you feeling?: The nausea started slightly today and from experience it will only get worse so that's fun...

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2) Oh introvert. Completely. It takes me a long time to open up to people. But I try to make myself an extrovert. Always a work in progress.

  • Due date/W+D: June 2nd/ 5w4d

    Baby is the size of a(n): apple seed

    Any appointments? Questions?: first appointment is on 10/30 when I am 10w3d. It seems SO far away!

    Rants/Raves?: I can't get enough of Nutter Butters and Pirate's Booty for snacks lately! 

    How are you feeling?: I feel great until about 11-11:30am and then feel nauseated. It slows down in late afternoon but by 9-10pm I feel blah again

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? I'm an introverted extrovert! I love being around people but also love to stay home with my family. I readily socialize but I'm not usually the one to initiate plans with others.

  • Due date/W+D: 4w6d

    Baby is the size of a(n): poppy seed

    Any appointments? Questions?: I had an appt today because I’m having wacky amounts of pain. Doc said my ultrasound looked fabulous and no ectopic! Its too early to see a HB but she said she saw a nice yolk sack so that’s reassuring. 

    Rants/Raves?: Those preggie pop drops are worth every penny. 

    How are you feeling?: Generally okay. I think my pain is linked to dehydration. I’m the worst at drinking water. 

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? Definitely an introvert, and I’m married to an extrovert so that’s interesting. 

  • Due date/W+D: June 1/ 5 weeks 5 days

    Baby is the size of a(n): opening of a straw (okaayy?)/chocolate chip

    Any appointments? Questions?: First appointment October 16. I'll be 7 weeks, so I'm hoping I'll have an ultrasound done! I can't remember if I had one at my first appointment with DS.

    Rants/Raves?: I've really been craving Chicken McNuggets, which is odd because I am totally an In-N-Out/ Chick-fil-A person. I mentioned it to my husband before he left for work, and he stopped by McDonalds on the way home. He's the best!

    How are you feeling?: Nauseous and tired! I've been nauseous for a couple of weeks, but it got worse today. Darn. I was hoping this pregnancy would be easier. I guess not!

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? 2 years ago, I would have said 100% an introvert. But now, since I stay at home, I totally need social interaction. The more the better!


  • Due date/W+D: 5+3

    Baby is the size of a(n): an M on an m&m. 

    Any appointments? Questions?:first appointment is the 24th. 

    Rants/Raves?: I'm so moody today. It isn't safe for anyone to be around me. I may bite their head off. 

    How are you feeling?: so far so good. 

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? Very extroverted  

  • @moralesbaby19, if those pops work that great I may try them this time. I tried B6 last time and it didn't help at all. 
  • Due date/W+D: Due June 3rd! 5 weeks 3 days 

    Baby is the size of a(n): Apple seed? 

    Any appointments? Questions?: Appointment October 23rd 

    Rants/Raves?: I spotted a tiny bit yesterday and freaked the f out. No spotting today! 

    How are you feeling?: I’m okay. Emotional and tired and running after my two year old has been taxing 

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2) I am an introverted extrovert for sure 

  • Due date/W+D: June 5th/5w1d

    Baby is the size of a(n): Apple Seed

    Any appointments? Questions?: My first is 10/24!  8 weeks on the dot, I feel like I’m holding my breath a little till I hear that heartbeat.

    Rants/Raves?: Not too much going on.  I’m adjusting to all the symptoms; they are all coming much earlier and much more intense than last time. I am going from super excited to a bit scared.  I’m trying to not over eat but I am so hungry.  I need to be better at packing lunch because today I caved and got a quarter pounder and fries from McDs.

    How are you feeling?: Nauseous, just a little bit more tired, some insomnia, hungry, sore boobs, and my anxiety is a roller-coaster right now.

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2)

    I am a shy extrovert.  I love being around people but have some anxiety to jump in the conversation. 

  • @emeraldcity603 They work really well. I had severe nausea with DD (I lost 30 lbs) and those things actually kept the nausea under control. 
  • Due date/W+D: June 5/ 5w + 1d

    Baby is the size of a(n): appleseed 

    Any appointments? Questions?: Oct. 10. I’ll be 6 weeks. Nervous to wait that long as I had low progrestrone my first pregnancy and had to take supplements. Just want to know if I need them again and to get started if I do.

    Rants/Raves?: bought a shirt on Amazon an two shipping but it was transferred to USPS from UPS and now who knows when it will get here. Probably tomorrow but I did prime shipping and the two day only covers until the arrival at the post office. Grr.

    How are you feeling?: Nauseated. So much more than my first pregnancy.

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? Mostly an introvert. More extroverted around friends though.

  • Due date/W+D: June 5, 5 weeks 2 days

    Baby is the size of a(n): ant

    Any appointments? Questions?: first ultrasound November 20th  follow up appointment the 23rd of November 

    Rants/Raves?: I hate I have to wait so long to see baby. But I’ll see so much more of it by then  I’ve also been calling it he since day 1  

    How are you feeling?: overall really good. Tired and bloated. And some nausea today. But relatively mild symptoms. 

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2). Definitely extrovert. I love meeting people and always have! 

  • Due date/W+D: June 8/ 4+5

    Baby is the size of a(n): Poppyseed

    Any appointments? Questions?: first appointment with US is Oct 23!

    Rants/Raves?: I’m a stomach sleeper and usually have no problems but omg, the last week I’ve woken up in the morning and my back is killing me! It’s like I’m overextending it  I gave in and busted out the prego pillow for tonight. Hopefully that will help align my back

    How are you feeling?: Besides the back pain I’m alright... sleepy but have issues staying asleep. I’m super hungry! Dizzy spells every once in a while too. I’m proud of myself for speaking up though... my OB told me she wanted to do HCG levels on me when I get pregnant since I’ve had a MC before. I sent her a message and asked if she wanted me to do then next week since I’m already having blood drawn for my TSH level. I get a message back from the NP in the office that she’s out of the office this week and they don’t normally do routine HCG levels. Ummm, you don’t know me or what I’ve talked to my OB about! So I tell her it’s been discussed so she messaged me back that she ordered it. That really pissed me off! Lady, don’t speak for my doctor! 

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? I’m an extroverted introvert. I have to be an extrovert for work... but I prefer to keep to myself.  

  • Due date/W+D: June 5th/5w1d

    Baby is the size of a(n): Apple Seed

    Any appointments? Questions?: My first is 10/29!  Just shy of 9 weeks.  Will be holding my breathe until then.  

    Rants/Raves?:  I hate waiting so long to see my doctor.  

    How are you feeling?: Mainly hungry and tired right now.  

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2)

    I am a extrovert.  


  • Due date/W+D: 6/7, 5wks today

    Baby is the size of a(n): Apple seed

    Any appointments? Questions?: First appointment is 10/23. Feels so far away

    Rants/Raves?: Rant: I have a cold and strep right now and every time I puke from MS my throat killlllsss  Rave: It’s friday!

    How are you feeling?: See rant above. 

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2)

    I’m an extrovert when I’m with people I know. Introvert around strangers. 

  • Due date/W+D: 5th, 5+2

    Baby is the size of a(n): Apple seed

    Any appointments? Questions?: US next Thursday

    Rants/Raves?: no rants yet today, rave - it Friday, I’m ready for the weekend!!

    How are you feeling?: ok, yesterday I was so nauseous, I need to get some sour candy to keep at work. The bloat is awful, In the morning I look normal, im a little over weight right now, but at night I look like I did at 5 months with my DD

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2) I’m a mix of the two, at work I’m introverted but otherwise an extrovert

  • Due date/W+D: June 7 / 5 weeks

    Baby is the size of a(n): Red lentil

    Any appointments? Questions?: After getting my blood work last week to check my levels, got to schedule my first actual OB appointment...11/6, one week before we can do the full genetic screening. I'm trying to find out if I can get an US earlier, so we can at least check for heartbeat.

    Rants/Raves?: Just wish I felt better (see below)

    How are you feeling?: caught some sort of cold at work and so I'm trying to sleep and drink fluids so it goes away soon!

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2) definitely an introvert, although I pretend otherwise at work because it is better for my job if I pretend to like spending time with people. My ideal day is going for a morning run, curling up with a cup of tea, and reading a book, and not having to do any talking. DH is the same, so hopefully future LO has similar tendencies, otherwise we will not know how to relate!

  • Due date/W+D: June 2, 5+5

    Baby is the size of a(n): Appleseed

    Any appointments? Questions?: I had my first appointment yesterday. My doc likes to have an early appointment with FTM to go over do's and dont's, which I think is great because I certainly don't know what I'm doing! Next appointment is 10/17 to do a dating US. 

    Rants/Raves?: I also have a cold, though it seems to be on it's way out, thankfully. And it's Friday! 

    How are you feeling?: Not too bad. Sore boobs and mild nausea when I first wake up.

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2): Definitely more of an introvert. I need my "me time" but I can be extroverted with my good friends 

  • Due date/W+D:  June 3, 5w5d

    Baby is the size of a(n): apple seed?

    Any appointments? Questions?: Not until October 19.

    Rants/Raves?: I feel fine, a bit gassy/burpy and my boobs very slightly sore but otherwise OK. Freaked out that this means doom, even though my first pregnancy was similar (if anything, the symptoms are more noticeable this time around).

    How are you feeling?: Pretty good, for someone who has only had a small cup of coffee per day since the BFP. I miss my coffee but for some reason I'm convinced more of it wouldn't be good for me.

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2) More and more introverted as the years go by.

  • Due date/W+D: June 4, 5+3

    Baby is the size of a(n): lentil (tbh I’m not sure what a lentil looks like).

    Any appointments? Questions?: Betas last week were good so no appointments until ultrasound on 18 October. 

    Rants/Raves?: everything I eat gives me a stomachache and I’m exhausted. But BF is being wonderful and very sensitive to my crazy emotions. 

    How are you feeling?: tired and mood swings. Also my normal anxiety but about new things. I almost cried in the car today because what if BF dies and our baby has no father? Sigh...

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2) I am definitely an introvert. People are exhausting! Why can’t we just sit in a room together, reading silently and not talking?

  • Due date/W+D: June 7th, 5w1d

    Baby is the size of a(n): peppercorn! 

    Any appointments? Questions?: I mentioned earlier that my dr's office couldnt schedule an appt for me before 9wks, but I sent my doc a message and she agreed to squeeze me in at 8wks. Yay! I had the same scheduling issue last time where they wouldnt see me until 10wks, but didn't know any better to say anything. Though I know on some level that it won't make a difference to the outcome, it helps my sanity to know sooner rather than later. I'm learning to advocate for myself as a patient! 

    Rants/Raves?: Major mood swing today! Trying not to take it out on DH :P

    How are you feeling?: sore boobs, super smelling powers are causing a little nausea. Happy to be pregnant, but sooo nervous when I remember it. Hoping and praying that I get to see baby's heartbeat this time around! 

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? Mostly extrovert, but everyone needs their time alone :)

    @tjthegoat I feel you on the anxiety, how do you deal with it? I have just been trying to keep myself busy with work, but when I do have a scary thought, I'll get up and have a healthy snack because that's something I can control and it will help my baby.

  • Due date/W+D: June 7/5 weeks

    Baby is the size of a(n): apple seed

    Any appointments? Questions?: Oct 30

    Rants/Raves?: can I wear maternity pants yet!? Haha! Feeling bloated.

    How are you feeling?: normal. Crampy on and off, but nothing crazy. Went on my normal long run this morning and that pretty much zapped my energy for the day. The dreary weather isn’t helping either.

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? Ehhh depends on the situation. Introvert until I get to know you (or have a glass of wine).

  • Due date/W+D:  5w6d

    Baby is the size of a(n): apple seed.

    Any appointments? Questions?: I have an initial appointment on Oct 16th and then my fist ultrasound on Oct 24th. This is my first time at that practice I didn't like my last OB because of turn over toward the end of my pregnancy so I wanted to try a different place this time.

    Rants/Raves?: I have been sick since 3 DPO. My son had strep throat and I got it too. Even after a round of antibiotics my lymph nodes are still swollen. My PCP said that is normal and could take weeks to resolve. They just did another throat culture to make sure it is gone. Having a weakened imkuim system was a lot easier last time because I didn't have a 21mo old.

    How are you feeling?: besides my immune system being crap, I'm feeling fine. Nausea comes and goes and it related to not eating, pregnancy rage is back.

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2) extroverted introvert. I like to spend a lone time, but when forced to hang out with people I always enjoy it. 

  • Due date/W+D: 7th June

    Baby is the size of a(n): Appleseed?

    Any appointments? Questions?: I was admitted to hospital at 4w6d with severe pain on my left side and the ultrasound they did found a 5.4cm cyst on my left ovary and a 5mm “intrauterine cyst like structure that could be an early gestational sac. No yolk or foetal pole identified. Can not exclude ectopic pregnancy” so I’m going back for another ultrasound on the 15th to confirm either way. If that’s clear then dating scan on 22nd (if they can’t date on the 15th) & OB on 25th. 

    Rants/Raves?: why does it grow so slowly and take so long to show up on ultrasounds? 😩

    How are you feeling?: nervous! My anxiety is through the roof and the not knowing is killing me. I haven’t slept a night through in 3 weeks, my nausea comes and goes, I’ve put on 10kg since my last period and I just all in all feel terrible.

    GTKY: Are you an introvert or an extrovert? (Stolen from Group 2) extroverted introvert for sure. Similar to others, have to be social for work but at home I barely talk.

  • @ibreemaboo I’ve been trying to tell myself (out loud if no one is around) that it’s just anxiety and it’s not real. Then get up and physically do something different so try to reset my mind. But it’s been tough lately. 

    @wiseh I can’t believe they are just leaving you hanging for a week and half until your next scan. I will be thinking of you and sending you good vibes. Hopefully it was just too early and everything is progressing normally. 
  • Due date: 6/6/19
    baby size of apple seed.
    first appointment: 10/30- I usually have a ton of anxiety but don’t feel it right now! I’m not sure I even sometimes believe I’m pregnant but know I will when I see it on the ultrasound. It’s my first! so curious what questions to ask.
    rants/raves: I do worry about not feeling sickly but I am extremely exhausted and don’t have a ton of motivation which sucks! The boobs are craaazy sensitive but with moments of chill if that makes sense. 
    People will definitely coin me an extrovert but I think I am extrovert with times I really just wanna stay home and chill and be alone. I work retail so I interact with people all day— I think I usually just need time off from that ;)

    my my birthday is June 1st and my moms is the 14th so it feels right that this babe is a June baby hehe
  • @ckcui17 my birthday is June 14th. We have a lot of June birthdays in my family. Me, my first son, my mom, and brother. 

    I'm almost certain this baby will be a May baby though. I went 2 weeks early last time. I'm not sure if it was because she was ready or if Hurricane Harvey help things along with all the low pressure. 

    @wiseh, I will be thinking of you. Being in limbo is nerve wracking. I will be praying it was just too early to see anything and that everything is fine. 
  • @TJtheGoat @emeraldcity603 thanks ladies. The waiting and the unknown is really killing me. I had my mirena taken out in June, since then and prior to that had super irregular periods (anywhere from 14-40 days) so I’m just hoping that that’s the case. If the sac has grown at my next scan but still no yolk I’ll wait until the scan on the 22nd to confirm, though from what I can google the sac seems to be measuring correctly for how far along am so no yolk at my next one is most likely confirmation it’s not worked out. My appointment with the OB is on the 25th so I doubt anything would happen before then. I live in a small country town in Australia so OBs are few and far between, and this isn’t something I want to chat to my GP about, in fact after his what I’d call neglect for my feelings I’ve vowed to never go back to him. In all in, just a really terrible start to my pregnancy 😞
