Re: Friday Ticker Change - 02/21

  • Estimated due date (EDD): 10/09

    Week of pregnancy: 7

    Upcoming Appointments: March 3rd - 1st appointment, dating u/s, etc

    Rant/Rave: I almost threw up at my kid's preschool yesterday. Then he asked me why and I told him "I'll tell you in a few weeks." At least I feel good today...

    Questions: none right now

    GTKY: What is your all-time favorite movie? (pick one and only one) The Princess Bride -- also I just realized that this is a common password questions, so maybe make up your own GTKY that can't be used to hack your bank account... (I never use this one because the title is too long, just FYI)

  • @aztecash  I'm glad that you feel better today.  I have almost thrown up a few times when I was around other people.  I have felt like that I needed to pretend that I feel OK, so people don't get suspicious or worry that they are going to catch an illness from me.   

    Estimated due date (EDD): 10/16

    Week of pregnancy: 6

    Upcoming Appointments: March 2nd

    Rant/Rave:  With my last pregnancy, the nausea was constant but never severe.  With this pregnancy, I keep getting waves of nausea, so part of the time, I feel just fine and then I suddenly feel like I'm going to puke all over the place.  I am a little weirded out that I don't feel as exhausted with this pregnancy as I did with my last one, but I am extremely grateful.

    Questions: nope

    GTKY: What is your all-time favorite movie? (pick one and only one)  "Love Actually" is probably my favorite movie even though I have several favorite movies, so it was hard to decide on just one.  It is one of those movies that makes me feel good every time I watch it.
    Pregnancy Ticker
  • EDD: 10/16

    Week of pregnancy: 6

    Upcoming Appointments: 2 March

    Rant/Rave: TW**loss—I had my second loss in October between 11 and 12 weeks and so I’m getting extra monitoring this time around. My OB called me at 9 pm Wednesday and said my hcg count was concerning and warned me I may be having an ectopic pregnancy. I’ve felt like a ticking time bomb for two days so I’m super relieved to have had much better numbers from Wednesday and Fridays labs and that the chances of an ectopic have gone way down. It’s been a crazy week. 

    Questions: Nope

    GTKY: What is your all time favorite movie? I’m going to go Disney and say Frozen. 
  • Estimated due date (EDD): 10/23 

    Week of pregnancy: 5

    Upcoming Appointments: 3/19 recheck TSH levels and 3/24 dating US and intake appointment 

    Rant/Rave: Rave: it was 55 degrees today! I’m so glad to be able to spend more time outside with my son and I’m looking forward to spring/summer! Rant: I had to go back on levothyroxine because my TSH was too high. Fingers crossed that it comes down quickly and the baby is not affected! 

    Questions: nope 

    GTKY: What is your all-time favorite movie? (pick one and only one) The Holiday 

    @mdfarmchick so glad to hear that your numbers are looking better! 
  • @westslopemama I hope the meds work with no side effects for baby—is TSH for thyroid? 
  • @mdfarmchick yeah, I have subclinical hypothyroidism, so no symptoms and my thyroid hormone levels are normal, but my thyroid makes too much thyroid stimulating hormone. Research doesn’t seem to clear on the impact it could have on the baby for people who don’t have overt hypothyroidism, but *TW* due to an early loss in 2017 I’m super paranoid! 
  • @westslopemama that’s completely understandable! I really hope everything goes well with baby this time. ♥️
