Re: Group 3 (16th-22nd) Check-in w/o Feb. 4
Interesting baby fact: Baby’s tail is gone!! 😂
Upcoming Appointments: Fri-YAY! Woot woot!
How are you feeling? Great! Pink eye is resolved, congestion is (mostly) gone and the cough is headed through the gift shop exit.
Rants/Raves: WE GOT OUR MICROWAVE INSTALLED!! It was a gigantic sh*t show that involved a trip to Lowe’s, removing a layer of tile off our backsplash, drilling new holes and cleaning the entire kitchen at 10pm, but hey man, IT’S DONE!! Side note: remind me NEVER TO DO HOME IMPROVEMENT AGAIN!! 🤣😆🥴
Questions: Nah.
GTKY: Do you have any superstitions? Yes! I used to have so many, but I’ve been able to eliminate a lot of them. I still make sure to have DH text me when he’s on his plane (he travels a lot for work) so I can tell him I love him. Just in case something terrible happens I know the last words he heard from me were that I loved him. Super morbid, I know. 😬
Interesting baby fact: The little nugget should be attaching the placenta & picking up a bit more slack in the coming weeks.
Upcoming Appointments: Wednesday, 2/6
How are you feeling? I actually feel pretty good physically. Some pulling & tightening in my belly, indigestion & heartburn, but nothing too terrible. Mentally & emotionally I am a basket case.
**TW** Terrified after MMC that I won't see my baby's HB on Wednesday.
Rants/Raves: I am blessed that I do not have morning sickness like I did during last pregnancy & that it is not 104* like it was then. I am also happy that I have been moving around a lot & exercising so maybe that is why I feel a bit better this time around. Rant--zits are the pits!
Questions: Not today
GTKY: Do you have any superstitions? I heard the old wives' tales about gender prediction. My symptoms are all over the place, so I guess I am going to have to wait.
Interesting baby fact: the arm and leg joints are now forming
Upcoming Appointments: Tomorrow!
How are you feeling? pukey, tired, dizzy, so emo
Rants/Raves: DH got the treadmill installed yesterday (rave), but I'm too nauseous to use it (rant). I asked for this though
Questions: Will my OB be able to check for the HB on u/s tomorrow? I'm dying to know that everything is ok.
GTKY: Do you have any superstitions? I still hold my breath going by cemeteries.
@omg1108 Good luck on Wednesday!! I am sure everything will be better than okay. Try not to stress about that which we cannot change. (I know, easier said than done!)
@lillywonderland Thank you!!!
@omg1108 good luck at your appointment Wednesday! I hope everything is well. I also have t really had any morning sickness and love it.
@themadcamel yes, you will be able to see the heartbeat on ultrasound at 7 weeks. It can probably be seen even without the T/V ultrasound, but detail would be lacking.
@themadcamel my midwife said we should hear the heartbeat tomorrow and you and I are due date twins.
@calliah when I wake up in the morning I get an intense wave of nausea, then I sneeze, and it turns into mild persistent nausea. So weird.

Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 9/22, 7w+2d
Interesting baby fact: Nugget has doubled in size since last week.
Upcoming Appointments: T/V US tomorrow!
How are you feeling? Constant state of nauseous that just can't be alleviated. Bloated. So, so bloated. The kind of bloating that is making me thing "omg, am I having twins." That kind of bloating. I also nearly passed out the other day. I had to sit down. I was so flushed and lightheaded. My watch said my heart rate jumped up to 130 when that happened.
Rants/Raves: My husband is man cold sick. He keeps leaving tissues all over the couch. I would like him to stop. In other news: US tomorrow! So nervous.
Questions: How are people doing with working and first tri woes? I have been able to WFH a lot which is a helpful but I also feel guilty.
GTKY: Do you have any superstitions? I won't open an umbrella indoors ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@omg1108, thinking of you today! I hope the appointment goes perfectly and gives you some peace of mind.
@themadcamel, I was also so happy to see your good update last night! And yay for a treadmill - that at some point will be awesome for you to have
@calliah, I also have more crazy person things than superstitions. I used to only drink sips of water from a water fountain in even numbers. No idea why/where that came from.
@cmdesigner, I hope you have a great appointment today as well! I have been dealing with the first tri/work by also WFH more than I probably should and giving myself some slack on being productive. I was so busy for months before we got pregnant, which really was perfect timing because I've had a few guiltless lazy weeks now ... but I'm starting to both need to ramp it up and to feel guilty for not working as much as I should be. (I bill my time, so there's no hiding the unproductive days.)
Est Due Date / Weeks + Days: 9/22, 7w3d
Interesting baby fact: S/he's the size of a piece of uncooked macaroni today.
Upcoming Appointments: Friday! Nervous and eager.
How are you feeling? Definitely a bit anxious about our appointment on Friday - I have no reason to think we won't hear great news, but I've been on the wrong side of statistics before. Physically, I am struggling a bit (but have it nowhere near as bad as many of you, I suspect). I feel pretty crappy and exhausted all the time, and I've actually had a few brief waves of nausea (third pregnancy, first time I've had any nausea).
Rants/Raves: Rant - I'm tired of feeling crappy. Rave - while the anxiety is still there, this has been my least-anxious first tri (and seems to be going the quickest).
Questions: Where do y'all get your cool baby facts?
GTKY: Do you have any superstitions? I don't think I have any legit superstitions. I do mix up the way I deal in a card game if I'm doing poorly and keep it consistent when I'm doing well.
ET fix date.
Interesting baby fact: New brain cells are generated at the rate of 100 per minute
Upcoming Appointments: I just had my first appointment today. I was bummed because I was hoping for an ultrasound and/or to hear the heartbeat. I got neither
How are you feeling? Meh. I will take it though, I know what it's like to have debilitating morning sickness and I am happy not to have that this time! I do feel slightly nauseous throughout the day but it's not anything crazy. Boobs still hurt! And of course very tired.
Rants/Raves: I miss coffee SOOOOOOOOOO much!
Questions: N/A
GTKY: Do you have any superstitions? Friday the 13th does kind of freak me out, and wouldn't you know it, September 13th is on a Friday! I hope baby doesn't decide to come on that day OMG.
Upcoming Appointments: We saw the heartbeat on Saturday and were released by the RE. First appt with the OB is not until 2/27. It's going to be a long 3 weeks. I'm pretty anxious that something will go wrong.
How are you feeling? Tired. Some bloating towards the end of the day.
GTKY: Do you have any superstitions? Just the feeling that if I'm too positive about things, it'll somehow jinx it.
