We didn’t have a randoms this week, so I thought I would start one for the weekend. What is everyone’s plans? Doing anything fun for the Super Bowl? And just for conversation: How is pregnancy going so far? Is it going how you expected?

My pregnancy with DS was pretty magical for the first 20 odd weeks, so to feel so cruddy is definitely not what I was expecting. I knew it wasn't normal to feel SO good, but I didn't think I'd feel SO bad

Pregnancy wise just feeling exhausted. And some minor nausea in the mornings which is so odd because with my others I either felt bad all day or just in the evening. My PGAL brain worries but I’m trying to stay optimistic.
Pregnancy wise, other than mood swings and bloating I'm not very symptomatic. Trying not to read into it since I was so symptomatic with the twins. But I know I'll feel better after my US appointment next wednesday; it seems like it's taking forever to get here lol.

Twins: Kaiden and Zara born 10/2018 conceived after 6 years of infertility via a medicated IUI
I think I'm slowly starting to phase out of morning sickness which is a blessing but also has me a bit nervous because it was so violent then suddenly went poof.
I think the mood swings are starting to hit though because about an hour ago I cried for a good fifteen minutes over my tendency to overthink things and make mountains out of molehills.
This is my first pregnancy, and I didn't really have any expectations. I'm just very grateful and very much feeling like crap. A little less fatigued than I was, but a little more nauseous than I was, but still thirsty and hungry but unsatisfied with most of the things I try to eat or drink. I'm really hoping to feel better in a few weeks. If my symptoms don't actually dissipate, maybe I'll get a placebo effect from just expecting to feel better in the second trimester like people keep telling me I will.
As far as how the pregnancy is going, I feel like I should be feeling worse by now. everything is making me nervous. still constantly checking my boobs, the tp, and freaking out that something is wrong. i'm going to a be an anxious wreck on monday.
