Re: TTGP Check-in w/o 6/27

  • What's going on this week? Baby is the size of a paper clip. Bones and cartilage are forming.

    How far along are you? 10 weeks 1 day

    Upcoming appointments? NIPT bloodwork this coming Wednesday, ultrasound July 23rd

    Cravings/Symptoms? The usual. I feel like I’m way more tired recently. My sex drive is picking up significantly. Dh isn’t complaining and I’ve been having crazy dreams. 

    Rants/Raves/Randoms? My next ultrasound got changed and I’m not impressed. Part of me wants to call and see if they have anything earlier because I’m paranoid and it will be 6 weeks since we last heard/saw the heartbeat. 

    Questions? Did anyone use a Doppler with a previous pregnancy? What’s the earliest you found the heartbeat at home?

  • What's going on this week? baby is the size of a tea candle

    How far along are you? 10 weeks 5 days

    Upcoming appointments? 1.5 weeks

    Cravings/Symptoms? Nausea isn't quite as bad, still very tired

    Rants/Raves/Randoms? I tried to get a picture of DD in front of daycare today because her pigtails were super cute, but I ended up getting random poses and cheesy smiles. She's turning into such a turd toddler.

    Questions? Anyone have ideas on how to liven things up in here. I haven't been on much because it seems like nothing is ever happening. Maybe some GTKY on weddings or pets?
  • @kbrown2385 - Oh no, how far back did it get pushed?? I think you should call and try to get it moved closer. I know my doctor would try to get me in just for my peace of mind.
    Also, pregnancy sex is literally the best.
  • @kbrown2385 definitely call to see if you can get in sooner. I'm sorry they rescheduled you. 

    @marebear15 agreed, this board is pretty slow. I wouldn't know how to get it more active though
  • @marebear15 it went from the 19th to the 23rd. My RE gave me a referral to MFM for a consult because of my history. I called and scheduled that today and it’s on the 5th. I’m hoping they do a scan or something there. If not I’ll be calling my ob to see if I can get in sooner. 6 weeks is too long for my sanity. As for how to get more traction here, we can try more gtky’s. Idk if that will get more people to post on the dailies too. 
  • Hey hey.....

    @kbrown I would call and see if they have had any cancellations. And call semi regularly. As for the doppler, we tried at 9 and couldn't find it. Same deal @ 10. Finally were able to after watching a youtube video just before 12. I think we would have been able to sooner had we watched the video sooner.

    @marebear15 OMG yes to pregnant sex!!! I have the BEST Os while preg 🤷‍♀️ I'm dying being on pelvic rest.... FX that gets lifted on Tue 🤞🤞
  • @kbrown2385 - An MFM should do a scan! At least in my experience, they've always done one for me.
  • @kbrown2385 never used a Doppler at home so I’m not much use. But we also have six weeks between appointments this time and I’m not looking forward to the wait!

    @marebear15 idk how to liven things up, but it really does seem quiet around here!

    Also I am apparently really missing the boat on the pregnancy sex thing. My nausea peaks at night and I’m not up for it ever 🙅🏻‍♀️

    What's going on this week? Baby is the size of a lego (wo)man

    How far along are you? 10 weeks

    Upcoming appointments? Just had one today with a surprise US which was awesome. Now to wait 6 weeks for the next appointment 

    Cravings/Symptoms? I can drink iced coffee now! The nausea is very manageable during the day but gets worse in the evening. No real cravings 

    Rants/Raves/Randoms? MH was supposed to get his wisdom teeth out but they had to reschedule. I’m really hoping the next appointment works because he isn’t allowed to take leave until he has the teeth out. So now we wait. The good news is that leave (aka vacation) is only 4 weeks away!!!! I am so ready to get out of TX for a couple weeks 

    Questions? What’s your fav iced coffee flavor? I’m obsessed w DD butter pecan 
  • @prpl11butterfly - I'm not sure that my Os change in intensity being pregnant, but it takes so much less effort to climax. 

    @MrsJessS - Sometimes I just have to push past nausea and just go for it. Also, really can't stand kissing right now, but anything else seems to get my mind off my nausea. But, I must add, my nausea is nowhere near what it was with DD. With DD, we were a once-a-week couple for the 1st tri.
    Where are you going on vacation??
  • @marebear15 I really hope so! 

    @MrsJessS no matter where I go for coffee I always get French vanilla. Sometimes I’ll try other flavors but I always fall back to vanilla. I do stay away from hazelnut though. I can’t with that one.
  • @prpl11butterfly I watched a couple
    of YouTube videos before trying. I’ve been able to find my own no problem lol. I’m not panicking yet because I know it’s still considered early to find at 10 weeks. I keep trying every few days though. 
  • @marebear15 with DS I think we did the deed maybe once or twice after I found out I was pregnant 😂 my sex drive just tanks. We are road tripping home to see my family. And my mom offered to keep DS overnight so we could go spend a couple days in Seattle as a couple which I am really looking forward to! MH has only been to my home state once so I am excited to take him to see more!

    @kbrown2385 ohhh I love hazelnut haha
  • @MrsJessS - Washington is a beautiful state!! I have several friends who live in Seattle. 
    I'm more of a latte drinker, but my favorite flavors are hazelnut (sorry @kbrown2385 ) and caramel. Of course pumpkin spice in the fall, and peppermint mocha in the winter.
  • @marebear15 I love hot lattes but I don’t like cold espresso. I am also not really a pumpkin spice fan...but I love pumpkin muffins and pumpkin soup lol. And peppermint mochas are so good. Although I am addicted to the chestnut praline latte when Starbucks has it
