How are you feeling?: Fine! No vomiting or nausea. I'm exhausted early in the evening but mostly just happy. I riding the high of how adorably happy my husband is so that makes me feel good. He is already talking to "it" even though I haven't changed shape.

Baby is the size of a(n): Raspberry

GTKY: What is your favorite flower? Not really a flower person

mwmiller4 · January 2019

Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 8.21 8w5d

Baby is the size of a gummy bear

Upcoming Appointments: First appointment with normal Ob is next Monday, 1/21

How are you feeling?: Meh. Nauseous, tired and nervous. I've been pleased about the heartbeat and growth but I'm still so nervous that something will happen and take it all away (yayyyyyy PGAL) I'm not sure how women aren't always total basketcases during pregnancy.

Rants/Raves: First world problem: I just figured out that the NIPT my Ob offers is only valid after 10 weeks (old office did a different test that was 9+), so I won't be able to have my blood draw on Monday for it since I'll only be 9w5d wah wah....

Questions: none

GTKY: What is your favorite flower? I love hydrangeas--especially the blue/purple ones!

@agpandme I'm so jealous you have a horse! I LOVE animals but could never convince my parents that a horse was a reasonable pet..and now I live in a city soo....
@EmilyA724 Good luck with your insurance! I hope they cover it!

Allycat11 · January 2019

Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 8/22ish 8w4d. My OB is still wavering on my EDD.

Baby is the size of a(n): Raspberry

Upcoming Appointments: nurse visit tomorrow, fourth u/s should be in about a week and half to two weeks. I am in the process of switching practices (long story my OB left and her office cut ties with where I want to deliver) so appts may be shifted.

How are you feeling?: *TW* I have the usual nausea and exhaustion. This pregnancy was off to a rocky start and I am on modified bed rest due to a SCH and a history of multiple losses...so I am bored and my anxiety is out of control.

Rants/Raves: Whyyy do I have to call my OB office for test results several days after the test was done. My last u/s was on Thursday and no one has called with results yet. Thankfully the tech was very experiences and chatty so we have an idea of how it went but I still have questions.

Questions:

GTKY: What is your favorite flower? I am not a flower person at all but lillies are probably my favorite.

ash0625 · January 2019

Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: August 17th , 9+3

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

Upcoming Appointments: Jan. 31 for follow up US

How are you feeling?: Morning sickness is intense, but I've been battling this sinus infection so it has taken over all symptoms.

Rants/Raves: It is insane to me that I can't get my regular doctor to treat this sinus infection. Literally NO one will help me, so I'm desperate and called my OB. Hopefully she'll step up or I'm going to cry.

Questions: None

GTKY: What is your favorite flower? Lilac bush. Is a bush a flower?

cato99 · January 2019

Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: Aug 16 / 9w 3d

Baby is the size of a(n): soda can tab!

Upcoming Appointments: intake OB nurse phone call tomorrow, ultrasound next Tuesday

How are you feeling?: better than last week! Still headachey

Rants/Raves: last pregnancy I craved Mexican food all the time but this time I don’t have a specific craving other than occasionally pizza, and honestly I miss it! Like, the visceral joy I got from Mexican food last time was near transcendent and I would love to feel that intensity again!

Questions: not right now!

GTKY: What is your favorite flower? I am very promiscuous with my flower loves! White lilies and orchids, but also hydrangeas and lilac like others have said, and I think peonies are so sweet and elegant

@cato99 ^^ I love this! I feel the same way. I love to putter in the garden but I have had so little time.

MollyH1987 · January 2019

@ash0625 Oh no! Hopefully your OB will help you out. That does not sound fun.

Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 8/16 / 9w3d based on confirmation u/s (so moving from Group 2 to Group 3)

Baby is the size of a(n): According to bump, as big as a tater tot. According to Ovia, a southern pecan.

Upcoming Appointments: Next appointment is 1st trimester screening on Feb. 1st

How are you feeling?: I'm feeling pretty good lately. Just tired and not much nausea anymore although I seem to be getting headaches more frequently. Might be food induced so I'll have to start tracking and see if there's a correlation somewhere.

Rants/Raves: I went ahead and told my boss the news today and she took it well so I'm relieved for that.

Questions: Not right now.

GTKY: What is your favorite flower? Hmmm, I don't know if I have a favorite but I used blue hydrangeas for all the bouquets for my wedding so I guess I'm partial to those. DH and I want to plant flowers/bushes in the backyard where we pulled up some old bushes and crepe myrtles so if anyone has any suggestions, I'm all ears

Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 8/23. 8w3d

Baby is the size of a(n): raspberry

Upcoming Appointments: last appointment and ultrasound with my RE on Wednesday

How are you feeling?: still pretty normal. My boobs aren’t as sore and I’m not peeing as much. Trying not to read that as a bad sign.

Rants/Raves: I hate red sauce (so no lasagna or spaghetti here). However yesterday I was craving spaghetti so H made us some and it was sooooo good! (And he was excited to actually get it!)

Questions:

GTKY: What is your favorite flower? Purple roses

Rants/Raves: Tired of winter, but my sinus issues since Thanksgiving seem to finally be disappearing!!

GTKY: What is your favorite flower? Lily, carnations, and peonies.

EmilyA724 · January 2019

@parrothead78 I just take the target generic prenatal gummy. I like it because it's slightly sour and sour gummies have been my go-to for nausea.

Avrilmai · January 2019

@parrothead78 I've taken the Smarty Pants prenatal complete. I get them on Amazon and they are often on sale. You have to take 6 a day and they don't contain iron, but they are pretty easy on the stomach and you can spread them throughout the day if it is easier on you. When I take those I usually take an iron supplement and I don't take the iron at the same time as the gummies. (sorry that go long.)

Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 8/22 8+5

Baby is the size of a(n): gummy bear

Upcoming Appointments: nothing until the end of the month

How are you feeling?: anxious for that appt. other wise just some nausea and the digestive problems that come with pregnancy and progesterone. fun times!

Rants/Raves: see above. also, I'm going to need the weather to get it together. I don't handle the cold well and I really don't handle it when it goes from the 30s to the 70s.

Questions:

GTKY: What is your favorite flower? I like a calla lily mainly because I'm a terrible gardener and I planted them once and now they come back every year...like magic.

megs_873 · January 2019

Hey thought I would finally post since last night I had my first ultrasound and confirmed the due date is August 22!!
The baby is the size of a peanut I was told last night (measuring at 2cm)
Upcoming app- Feb 15 with my doctor, it will be the second appointment I've had so far
How are you feeling? The last week has be brutal, the worse headaches, so tired and feel sick to my stomach all day, however I work up today and feel so much better!
Rants/Raves- My husband has been amazing, last night I craved the weirdest dinner and he made it for me and when he brought me the plate, I could not get over had gross it looked and wouldn't eat it (that has been me for the last 2 weeks)
Questions- None
GTKY- I love colourful flowers, my favourite are sunflowers, however with my cat we tend not to buy any since he just eats them and then throws up

Beauxbaton · January 2019

@Avrilmai I thought the smarty pants gummies tasted awful. But they were easy on the stomach.

wabash15 · January 2019

@purplg8r its totally normal to feel normal.... the first tri is this awful game of if you had no symptoms you wish you did so you felt more certain, but if you have symptoms you wish you didnt because you just want to feel ok again...

cato99 · January 2019

@parrothead78I take Nutrition Now prenatal gummies because that's what my organic store happens to carry. You only take 2 a day.

purplg8r · January 2019

@wabash15 exactly! I can’t imagine having to throw up all the time and teach first graders at the same time. But it still feels so fake!

How are you feeling?: I had a sudden burst of energy yesterday & felt amazing. It honestly freaked me out a little to feel so suddenly good. Today I'm back to tired, but still feeling slightly better!

Rants/Raves: I'm dog-sitting for my family for a few days. It's going to be interesting having to leash walk with my DS & morning sickness.
