Re: Group 1 Check-in (DD 2/1 - 2/7) w/o 6/17
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: Finding Out
Baby is the size of a(n): Back of an earring
Upcoming Appointments: June 27. Can’t wait but I’m nervous!
How are you feeling?: Crummy. I’ve been dizzy and very nauseous. Lots of dry heaving. I’m also really tired. This part is always so rough.
Rants/Raves: I want to be in bed every night by 8pm, which hinders our relax time after our boys go to bed. Rave is that husband is supportive of this.
Questions: No
GTKY: What’s your favorite time of year (season, holiday, etc.)? I love summer the most. I hate being cold and we live in Texas, where it gets really hot. Some don’t like it, but I enjoy just wearing shorts and throwing on flip flops. It also makes it easy for us to go places with our boys, since I’m not having to bundle them up. I also love pool time and margaritas. But, obviously having to put margs on hold this summer. 😫
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: Finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): chocolate chip!
Upcoming Appointments: First appointment is still years away....July 11th.
How are you feeling?: Relatively ok. Still wishing I had all the symptoms x100 so I could stop stressing. But still have the waves of nausea, tiredness, sore boobs off and on. Today I have some lower back pain, feels like stretching.
Rants/Raves:
Questions: None
GTKY: What’s your favorite time of year (season, holiday, etc.)? I love them all. I live in WA and we get a little bit of every season and I love things about each one.
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: FO
Baby is the size of a(n): blueberry
Upcoming Appointments: June 25th.. can’t wait to get an ultrasound!
How are you feeling?: Sick and tired of feeling sick and tired.
Rants/Raves: I have no energy to do my normal activities aka dishes and making food for my 3 DDs. And the puking everyday is getting old.
Questions:
GTKY: What’s your favorite time of year (season, holiday, etc.)? Fall in Michigan is the best. All of the leaves changing colors, apple orchards, pumpkin patches, corn mazes, the clothes, boots, scarves, pumpkin spice lattes, the smell of outside, Halloween.. it’s love.
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: Team Green for now. But I’m sure I’ll cave.
Baby is the size of a(n): earring post
Upcoming Appointments: My first appt is 6/26. I cannot wait to confirm this pregnancy!!
How are you feeling?: Nausea comes and goes but mostly I’m really tired. I tried to make sure my husband had a great Father’s Day, but it wasn’t easy when I just wanted to curl up or run to the bathroom.
Rants/Raves: okay...this is a really petty rant. But at a family lunch yesterday my sister made an obnoxiously loud comment about me being pregnant because I didn’t want to order mimosas with her. It put me in such an awkward position because I don’t want to lie to people...but I’m also not ready to announce until I have my first OB appointment. Ugh.
Questions: none yet!
GTKY: What’s your favorite time of year (season, holiday, etc.)? That’s a tough one. I live in SoCal so we really only have 2 seasons. I guess I’ll choose fall. I love scarves!
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: Finding Out
Baby is the size of a(n): Earring post
Upcoming Appointments: June 24 for weekly BW & US (IVF pregnancy so close monitoring until 10w)
How are you feeling?: Tired. So very very tired.
Rants/Raves: I keep having random mood swings that are making me feel like I’m losing my mind, and I want to eat everything that is bad for me. Why?!
Questions: Anyone else have spotting around this time? I started yesterday morning (luckily right before our RE appointment). Of course panic ensues, but our little bean is doing just fine! Heart was beating away, numbers came back great. We could see the blood clot in our US, and Dr said the placenta must have just hit a blood vessel which is fairly common. Anyone else have a similar experience?
GTKY: What’s your favorite time of year (season, holiday, etc.)? I love everything about the fall and so does DH 🍂🧡 We got married in late October and enjoy all of the typical fall activities — pumpkin and apple picking, bonfires, hot cider, and just spending time outdoors in the beautiful weather! We are so excited that we’ll be around 26 weeks for Halloween — hopefully will be showing enough to come up with some fun costume ideas 😬
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: FO
Baby is the size of a(n): blueberry?
Upcoming Appointments: 6/28 - too far!
How are you feeling?: Low level nausea at all times, sore boobs and extreme food aversion.
Rants/Raves: Made a grocery list of beige foods I can stomach and my husband instead bought SRIRACHA potato chips, EVERYTHING bagels and off-brand Cheez-its. Not cool.
Questions: Tips on dealing with the nausea at work/out and about? I work in the food industry so there are SO many smells on a daily basis.
GTKY: What’s your favorite time of year (season, holiday, etc.)?
Spring / fall for the 2 weeks they seem to last in Chicago.
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: Definitely finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): blueberry
Upcoming Appointments: July 11
How are you feeling?: Overall ok. Feeling kinda bloated, nausea has set in and food aversions aplenty, but no vomiting. I almost audibly retched at smelling my colleague’s lunch yesterday but I caught myself. Breasts hurt like crazy when I wake up in the middle of the night, but that fades during the day. Starting to notice the fatigue, needed to hit the sack at 8pm last night which is very unusual for me.
Rants/Raves: I am an IVF patient so I was able to have my first ultrasound early, yesterday! This is our first time so we were totally floored by seeing that tiny flicker 💓. Baby has a strong heartbeat so we are feeling blessed and hopeful that all continues to go ok.
GTKY: What’s your favorite time of year (season, holiday, etc.)? Fall, hands down.
Team finding out/blue/pink/green: really hoping to not find out.
Baby is the size of a(n): chocolate chip
Upcoming appointments: today June 19th then July 8th
How are you feeling: intense nausea, and my gag reflex is out of control. Other than that I just want to sleep. Beyond tired. And I have a toddler with croup and he shared his cold with me. So that’s super fun!
Rants/Raves: I’m still trying to wrap my brain around another pregnancy, as my last was not easy and ended with a lot of complications for me. And I just left the doc only to find out it’s twins! Again! So I’m in a weird place mentally right now. Still trying to process everything I think. And a little terrified. Ok a lot terrified.
GTKY: favorite season/holiday etc: I love them all honestly. We live in the Pacific Northwest and have great seasons. I’m not a huge fan of winter because I hate being cold. But I do love to decorate for Christmas so that kind of helps offset my disgust at the temperatures. Haha!
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): blueberry
Upcoming Appointments:just had one on June 17, next one is July 4th

Rants/Raves: got to see LOs heartbeat at 150bpm

Rants/Raves: A proposal I submitted to present at a conference was accepted!
Questions: If you have similar symptoms in different pregnancies is it more likely it's the same gender baby?
GTKY: What’s your favorite time of year (season, holiday, etc.)? Summer!

@clearlyclara It's hard to figure out with pregnancy! I've heard some women really dry up halfway through so who knows what plans our bodies will have
