EDD/ W+D?
8/4, 7+6

Upcoming appointments?
Jan 2, hopefully will get an updated EDD. LMP and US measurement were different by a few days.

How are you feeling?
Other than mountain cedar wreaking havoc on my sinuses, great!

Rants/Raves/Questions?
I'm excited for DD's 2nd Christmas. Last year she was a month old, so it will be so much more fun this year!

GTKY: If you could ask Santa for anything (non baby related) this holiday season, what would it be?
A rolltop desk and a buffet table.

ETA to correct how far along I am. Remembering things is hard.

8/5, 7+6

Jan 4 for the OB, Jan 8 for the dating u/s. Neither can come soon enough.

I'm better since discovering the unisom+ vitamin B6 trick, but still operating on a low level of nausea.

My brother and SIL loved the photo album I made of my niece 🤩🤩🤩

Success in my next round of experiments. Mama needs data!!!

@deecherise +1 for the unisom & b6 combo.

8/2 and 8w2d

appts: Dec 28 with the OB. She is going to yell at me about my weight. I’m not looking forward to that since I’m going to eat all the homemade mac and cheese over the next 3 days.

Feeling: nauseated tired weak a little shaky right now. Sitting and trying to take it easy when your house is a disaster right before Xmas is so hard.

Rants/Raves: just so stressed about Xmas. I had grand plans of making a bunch of Xmas present before I got pregnant and spent a ton of money on supplies. But have just been too nauseous since day one I have left everything to today which is impossible.
Because I also need to wrap, bake and make food for tomomorrow and Tuesday.

Santa? A bigger freaking house. And a maid.

EDD/ W+D? Aug 4, 8+4

Upcoming appointments? Jan 2 meeting with the midwife to go over blood work results. No checks on baby until the anatomy scan, so that's a bummer.

How are you feeling? pretty good. My parents are here visiting and my husband is on holidays, so I'm getting lots of extra rest :P

Rants/Raves/Questions? nope

GTKY: If you could ask Santa for anything (non baby related) this holiday season, what would it be? a haircut? thye're so expensive where I live

I usually just wait to get my hair cut when I visit family in Canada, but we aren't going until June (last cut was in July) so I'm gonna have to bite the bullet, I think.

Upcoming appointments?
Tomorrow!

How are you feeling?
nausea seems to be gone, which made me excited then super nervous. Crazy how tired I felt over Christmas even though I did very little.

Rants/Raves/Questions?
Rant: currently waiting in an airport on a delayed flight. I’m SO looking forward to not traveling next year because we’ll have a 4 month old.

GTKY: If you could ask Santa for anything (non baby related) this holiday season, what would it be?
More vacation days at work. I’m trying to squeeze in lots of trips before LO arrives

BigBadWolf12 · December 2018

@heml do you travel the same trip every year? We have traveled between Canada and Sweden (cross Atlantic with one connection, about a 12 hour trip in all, so not nearly the longest trip we could take, but a decent enough length) to visit family for the last 4 years. It was way better traveling with DS at 3 and 4 months old (sleeper) than it was at 9 and 10 months old (crawler). Next time he'll be 21 months (runner). He's a good traveler, but mobility brings it's challenges even for easygoing babies

3 and 4 months he just slept most of the time, so hopefully you have good travel experiences with an infant too

EDD/ W+D? 8weeks 5days
is it bad I don’t keep up with the days? I have to check every time.

Upcoming appointments? Next appt is 1/17 so far. Waiting for MFM to call and schedule that appointment, so may be a bit sooner.

How are you feeling? A little nervous to say this, but slightly better I think. I have a little more energy(still exhausted though) and the nausea is a little better. Cramps are a lot better and I’m working on getting the anxiety under control.

Rants/Raves/Questions? I can rant: I’m tired of being pregnant already. Maybe this is a UO because I know how much work some of us put into being here, but I hate pregnancy and everything that comes with it (except the sweet baby). My MIL knows it is a boy and has been pushing family names on us. We have two options as far as she is concerned - Lucien and Return. I just don’t love either. She is driving me crazy and my bitchy whiney self just can’t deal with her. We normally get along so great.

Also, my cat died on Christmas Day. She was 18 years old and I have had her the whole time. I’m going to miss her. Blessed she felt good though right up until the end. 💕

GTKY: If you could ask Santa for anything (non baby related) this holiday season, what would it be? I want to extend the patio off our porch with rock, so maybe that? We had plans to do it in the spring but I’m not sure I’m going to be up for it.

@database6 I'm really sorry about your cat 😢😢😢

bluebonnet15 · December 2018

@BigBadWolf12 We like to travel all over, no regular trips planned. We’ll do London in March (20ish weeks), so I think that’ll be perfect timewise for a 10ish hour flight. Good to know about best ages for travel. My tentative plan is to visit a friend in Alaska when LO is a little over 2 months old while I’m still on maternity leave and to Cancun for a wedding when he/she is 6ish months old. I may be changing my tune when the little alien gets here though...

@database6 So so sorry about your cat. Sending you creepy internet hugs.
