Week of pregnancy: 6w4d
Upcoming Appointments: April 6 to hear heartbeat
Rant/Rave: both of my children had melt downs this morning. My husband burnt eggs yesterday and the house still stinks. I can't hide my tummy much longer because number 3 is cray. I am so tired and so nauseous and so bloated, and I STILL keep thinking maybe I'm not really pregnant since we haven't heard a heartbeat yet.
Also, my pregnant ass was volunteering for my kids musical theatre tech week rehearsals this morning. Imagine my rage when I stepped out and saw several other moms enjoying coffee and gossip at the lobby cafe while I ran around upstairs fixing their kids hair and costumes and microphones between bouts of nausea.
Edited...I skipped the last two.
Questions: anyone here planning to cloth diaper? We did with the first two, and I'm trying to decide if I want to again or just do sposies.
GTKY: What's the most daring thing you've ever done? Got pregnant with number three after getting both of my big kids into school. I was done with toddlers and preschool and started over. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣

Week of pregnancy: 7+0
Upcoming Appointments: March 19th with US
Rant/Rave: I’m annoyed today by the very concept of COVID-19. Both the panic about it and the possibility of bad things happening. Ugh.
Questions: None pregnancy related!
GTKY: What's the most daring thing you've ever done? I’m very much not an adrenaline junkie, so I pretty much avoid anything that actually puts me in possible danger. I once did a cool rock climbing experience where you were hanging off cliffs at times, but there were harnesses and hand holds involved.
@BLuvsE I have been thinking about it, but I work full time and likely will have various family members and/or daycare involved, so I just don’t think it is realistic.
Week of pregnancy: 6+4
Upcoming Appointments: US on March 20 and second OB appointment on March 28
Rant/Rave: I cried yesterday because my husband made a joke saying "Well, you were the one that wanted this" when I was complaining of nausea... I could've slapped him. Luckily we have a good relationship and I sat him down and told him he couldn't fucking joke about that and I needed to know he was in this. He is, and we talked about why what he said isnt funny even a little.
Questions: Is it weird to want a nap... after your nap...
GTKY: What's the most daring thing you've ever done? Hmmm... probably getting pregnant... it sounds weird, but for me this is one of the scariest things
Week of pregnancy: 6w5d
Upcoming Appointments: Had our first scan today! Got to see the little bean and see the heartbeat.
Next US is 3/24.
Rant/Rave: The general Coronavirus craziness. There was no toilet paper at Costco! What if there are people who really need it!? Lol
Questions: none
GTKY: What's the most daring thing you've ever done?
I’ve done the ripcord over the Royal Gorge in Colorado!
@joyfulone86 I don't get the TP thing. Like... That is a luxury. You can survive without it for two weeks if you get quarantined. I mean I know that's gross, but people do it on purpose and call it family cloth. (Basically they wipe with cloth rags and just wash them)
Also I feel I should add that I found out *some* of the moms I was so mad at were in fact volunteering in a different way. So... Blame the hormones. I don't usually mom shame and I have no idea what those ladies have going on in their lives. Maybe they needed that moment of peace.

Rant/rave: more like just a gripe/whine. I’m exhausted everyday. I want someone to come deep clean my house and put all of my daughters toys away.
I'm not sure how to answer this. I've done a lot things I thought were daring at the time, but feel just stupid on reflection. Lol.
Week of pregnancy: 7
Upcoming Appointments: US on 3/24
Rant/Rave: I babysit a friend’s 3 month old son Tuesday/Thursday afternoons and he cried for most of the 3.5 hours he was over on Tuesday. Being tired and pregnant it was SO hard. I can’t remember my son ever crying so much. I would finally get him to sleep and then my son would make noise and he’d wake up. It’s freaking me out thinking about having a newborn and my wild toddler, but I know we will figure it out.
Questions: So I broke down and told a co-worker I was pregnant because we work together so much and I was hard to keep it a secret. Another co-worker asked her if I was pregnant yesterday and I’m like WTF my stomach isn’t that big yet! The person I told won’t let my secret out, but I want to hide it from everyone else for a few more weeks! I felt like everyone was staring at me yesterday! Anyone else have this problem?
GTKY: What's the most daring thing you've ever done? probably climbing Longs Peak, a technical 14,000+ ft peak in Colorado, in the winter.
Week of pregnancy: 7
Upcoming Appointments: 3/24 and I am so ready to get some reassurance.
Rant/Rave: I am working from home, so that's a nice effect of this virus. Still sent my toddler to daycare...lol
Questions: none
GTKY: What's the most daring thing you've ever done? I touched a crocodile once at a tourist trap place in west africa. Now that I'm older and wiser, I would not do it again! Also, as others have said, having children is daring and I have no idea why we are going for round 2! (j/k, kind of)
Week of pregnancy: 8 today
Upcoming Appointments: 3/16 first appt. It has been the longest wait ever because I have known since 3 weeks
Rant/Rave: My kid has decided that coming into my room at 2 am is the thing to do for the last week. Meaning i dont nornally go back asleep til 4. And then get up a 6 to get ready for work. I am already tired and cranky.
Questions:None
GTKY: What's the most daring thing you've ever done? I live a very boring exsitance so nothing I can think of.
Week of pregnancy: 8th
Upcoming Appointments: first ultrasound and nurse/Dr visits 3/18
Rant/Rave: so bored! I feel like all I do is sleep. I haven't done anything social in a while and just go to bed early. Looking forward to feeling a little better hopefully soon. I don't feel awful but just light headaches, queasy, tired, etc.
Questions: is anyone traveling right now? I just cancelled my weekend trip to Boston due to coronavirus concerns. I'm not worried for myself but just seemed like the responsible thing to do.
GTKY: What's the most daring thing you've ever done? I'm not very daring apparently. Can't think of anything!
Week of pregnancy: 7

Week of pregnancy: 7w 1d, however per blood work I am much earlier.
Upcoming Appointments: Calling doctor Monday!
Rant/Rave: I feel like I am going crazy not knowing how far along I am, per my blood work on 3/11 HCG was at 133, and 37 on 3/9 so my numbers have more than doubled in 48 hours but I am super early.
Questions: Not at this time.
GTKY: What's the most daring thing you've ever done? Become a mom! I have an 8yo and I still can't believe I am responsible for a whole human haha!
So I'm measuring 5 weeks, due date November 12. Which makes sense because my cycles are usually long. I'm going to wait until an actual doctor changes my date before I move to the November board but apparently this is really common based on my Google search. Sometimes the baby catches up to the original due date because they all grow at different rates, and sometimes you just ovulated later, and the new date is accurate. So we'll see!
My cervix was closed and it really was probably a pepper. No bleeding or cramping since, so I'm no longer worried about miscarriage. Just would like to know how pregnant I am.
