Due date/W+D: 10w today (I’m supposed to move to group 1 but I enjoy you ladies too much!)
Baby is the size of a(n): Soda Pop Can Tab
Any appointments? Questions?: No appointments for a while 😭 Question free, for now.
Rants/Raves?: Mini rant that I posted on Monday Bitch Fest; my MIL took it upon herself to share that I’m oregnant with whoever she wants. I’m pissed because I haven’t told my family yet. More details on the other board.
How are you feeling?: Nausea and constipation will be the death of me during this pregnancy. If I’m not eating, I’m nauseous and (TMI) I have been having the worst poop cramps ever from the constipation. I just want to 💩 normal!
GTKY: What is/are your favorite show(s) to binge watch? Criminal Minds is my ALL TIME FAVORITE. I’ve seen every episode 3 times. My current favorites are 9-1-1, The Resident, The Good Doctor, and A Million Little Things. Tonight is my night for shows!
Edit: apparently my phone doesn’t like the word constipation. 💩
Any appointments? Questions?:This Thursday finally
Rants/Raves?: Nothing really
How are you feeling?: Nausea and exhaustion mostly. A little mild cramping this morning.
GTKY: What is/are your favorite show(s) to binge watch? I cannot binge watch TV at all. I get bored. My favorite shows are Shameless, Stranger Things, Schiditts Creek, Superstore, and Life in Pieces though.
Baby is the size of a(n): piece of popcorn as of yesterday.
Any appointments? Questions?: I am taking part in a pregnancy study and have a class Tuesday to go to for it. I'll be going every other week for my entire pregnancy. Friday I have an elective ultrasound because there's something about 9 weeks that has me nervous.
Rants/Raves?: I'm pretty sure I had Braxton Hicks last night. I'm not joking. My last pregnancy I started getting painful bh at 24 weeks, I've read they can start as early as 6, but WTH.
How are you feeling?: a little nauseous. It's gone down some. Tired. Fat.
GTKY: What is/are your favorite show(s) to binge watch?
Any appointments? Questions?: Had our u/s last week which went great. Next appointment is at 12 weeks - don't think it's an ultrasound, though. Hoping we can actually hear the heartbeat instead of just see it!
Rants/Raves?: Rant - DH has today off for Columbus Day and I'm stuck in the office. He just informed me he was going to wait until I got home so we could all go grocery shopping together. Great, thanks. That's just what I want to do after a day at work. Not like that's a fun family bonding activity or something. Rave - it's going to be 80 degrees and sunny this week!
How are you feeling?: Feeling okay, ready to be out of first tri, as I'm sure everyone else is too. Super tired this afternoon.
GTKY: What is/are your favorite show(s) to binge watch? Love parks and rec, the office, how I met your mother, sex and the city. Also a huge Seinfeld fan - my brother used to watch it all the time growing up and I'd pretend I understood the jokes just to hang out with him haha. Then I eventually saw every episode and loved it once I was old enough to get the humor.
Any appointments? Questions?: appointment for NIPT blood test next Thursday *TW* due to history of multiple losses*end*
Rants/Raves?: rave- I ate lemon pepper wings today and they were DIVINE And they didn't make me feel sick! 🙌
How are you feeling?: nausea was better today. Not gone, but better I am ready to 💩Normally again too @mrskoz428 😭
GTKY: What is/are your favorite show(s) to binge watch?
@secicc12 we have similar taste and in shows! Love a good comedy at the end of the day! Park and rec, Brooklyn 99, how I met your mother, Seinfeld, the office, etc, etc.
Baby is the size of a(n): Cherry, Green Olive, Tater Tot
Any appointments? Questions?: I have my first appointment with my OB on Friday
Rants/Raves?:
How are you feeling?: Super nauseous and I spend most mornings dry heaving/ throwing up for a few hours (makes going to work super fun). The nausea usually lasts until like 3 pm and then sometimes creeps back after dinner. I am super exhausted and have insomnia and crazy dreams. I'm still super bloated too and none of my clothes fit. And I don't know if this is pregnancy related or fall related but I am so stuffy everyday.
GTKY: What is/are your favorite show(s) to binge watch? I love TV. My favorites are: Grey's Anatomy, This Is Us, Stranger Things, Santa Clarita Diet, Married at First Sight, Friends, SATC, and a bunch of shows on TLC and MTV that are embarrassing to admit to haha.
@mrskoz428 I was dealing with constipation a lot too, thankfully it is not as bad now, but the cramps are the worst.
@coffeeislife I can't wait for Stranger Things to come back!
Any appointments? Questions?: Official first prenatal appointment one week from today! Ugh finally
Rants/Raves?: We went to BIL’s wedding on the other side of the country this past weekend and it was a f$@&ing shit show. None of us slept well, none of us had any fun. I would take up three pages detailing out everything that went wrong this weekend, but let’s just say a tired angry toddler made me miss pretty much everything this weekend. On the bright side, we saw a bunch of DH’s family we haven’t seen in a long time and I am not going back any time soon. If they want to see us they can come here.
How are you feeling?: So much nausea. Somehow diclegis managed to keep me afloat all weekend, but I was so nauseous all day Sunday traveling home and yaked basically as soon as we got to our house. Was so nauseous all day yesterday too, and feeling pretty bad today, still. I think my body was angry from being so exhausted.
GTKY: What is/are your favorite show(s) to binge watch? Right now I’m watching the OC (I’ve never seen it before) and Shameless. I also really enjoyed Gossip Girl.
@poshspice Ugh that sounds soo rough. Traveling is tiring enough as it is, nevermind a toddler and being pregnant in first tri. Hope you got some rest today!
Any appointments? Questions?: Not until my NT screen on the 29
Rants/Raves?: Rave! Bought a bigger size of my Lululemon wonder unders and maternity bras I am finally comfy!!!
How are you feeling?: Just awful and cranky and nauseous. Diclegis is life. I’m going Day by Day right now, countdown till 2nd trimester is on. Then I feel guilty about wanting this to be all over with soon, and I should enjoy and appreciate more because it took 4 years to get pregnant but really does anyone love the first trimester? It’s just full of feeling unwell all the time and the stress of the first 12 weeks.
GTKY: What is/are your favorite show(s) to binge watch? Started rewatching Breaking Bad with hubs it’s just such a well done show with so much attention to detail and the cinematography is beautiful. If that gets too dark, then Friends lol.
@kbelly777 I started a stoll softener yesterday, Colace, to try and assist with some of it. My stomach hurts from being backed up.
Will mention in the symptoms post too, but I've been getting low back pain. Low, like in my sacrum. I read that constipation can cause back pain too so I'm hoping a good 💩💩 helps! it's too early for static/ posterior pelvic pain at 9 weeks, right??
Any appointments? Questions?: I’m having my Panorama test done Monday, but other than that my next appointment is the 30th for the nuchal ultrasound
Rants/Raves?: just hate feeling like I can’t control my emotions!
How are you feeling?: pretty good today which is a nice relief. Nauseous some days, but I’ve only actually gotten sick once. I’m just SO tired, and having a 3 year old is hard to keep up with right now lol
GTKY: What is/are your favorite show(s) to binge watch? We don’t really “binge” watch any shows, but one show that we can watch over and over is Friends. We love Greys Anatomy also
Any appointments? Questions?: Regular two week appointment tmrw. They do an ultrasound at every appointment which is nice.
Rants/Raves?: Weather is finally cooling down! I’m excited for fall.
How are you feeling?: Nausea is still hitting pretty hard on and off all day. Eating keeps it at bay, but that means I’m constantly eating which is also not great. Also been tired and moody.
GTKY: What is/are your favorite show(s) to binge watch? It’s been ages since I’ve binge-watched something. DH and I got into GoT pretty late, so we binged that, but usually I like comedies.
Any appointments? Questions?: We go in Monday for our second ultrasound to make sure things are progressing. Then I have an OB on the 24th and first trimester screening/ultrasound on the 29th.
Rants/Raves?: I've been MIA the last several days bc of our trip to NYC. We had a great time, outside of being nearly homeless on the first day. We got into the city and the company that rented us an apartment let us know that they messed up and it's not available. They tried to put us in another...but it wasn't available. We ended up feverishly calling any hotels we could and found a place, but it of course cost us at least $800 over what the apartment rental was. Needless to say, I'm going to fight them on paying the difference. They've refunded me what we paid for the apt, but we were on a budget and $800 extra dollars on my credit card makes me very unhappy. It put a bit of a cloud over the trip, but we still managed to have fun. We also took our announcement picture, and hopefully I'll get to share with our DD and then to our friends come Monday.
How are you feeling?: I'm feeling good overall. No more nausea, a lot of my energy has come back (not falling asleep at 7pm or feeling like I can't lift my arms). My sciatica is really bothering me, I've got to get moving/exercising. I know that would help.
GTKY: What is/are your favorite show(s) to binge watch? Gilmore Girls, Friends, Dawson's Creek, One Tree Hill...I live in my teen years, what can I say? lol
@peachy13 How fun that you and your friends can go through it together!
@poshspice Where do you watch The OC? It's one that I never watched, but given my obsession with late 90's/2000's teen shows, I've been wanting to try it. I just can't find anywhere to watch it.
@GeorgiaGirl1230 Sorry that happened to you! Did you go through a service like AirBnB/HomeAway/etc or just direct through the apartment owner? I've had good luck getting reimbursed excess costs after the owner cancels when I use a service, but you definitely deserve to get your money back either way.
Due date/W+D: May 14, 9w2d
Baby is the size of a(n): cherry
Any appointments? Questions?: Had an unplanned US and appointment on Monday due to bleeding on Friday. Was very relieved (after a hellish weekend of waiting) that the baby was healthy and measuring on track, HB 176. I still have my regularly scheduled US and appointment next Tuesday.
Rants/Raves?: Just grateful my baby is fine and I'm not bleeding anymore.
How are you feeling?: Nauseous, tired. Like others have said, ready for first trimester to be done.
GTKY: What is/are your favorite show(s) to binge watch? It's always fun to re-watch a favorite show with someone who's never seen it- binged "Rome" (one of my all-time favorites) with my husband earlier this year. It was fun to see him so surprised to be into one of my "historical" shows (he's more of a "zombie show" type). I also like to binge on Netflix/Amazon shows when they come out, since they release them all at once- Stranger Things and The Last Kingdom are a couple good ones. I was not happy when I found out yesterday that Amazon canceled Mozart in the Jungle- noooo!
@misskimsue So, funny story, we'd booked air bnb first, but they cancelled on us about 6 weeks before the trip and we had to find something else. So, we went through a fellow church member who is a travel agent. His company books through a company called TravelPro Rentals. I believe TravelPro brokers the rentals from other local companies in whatever you are looking to book. So, thankfully, we have an agent on our side who could also go to bat for us.
