How are you feeling: hellish. HG sucks. It’s something resembling under control with three different medications and all the normal morning sickness “tricks” but uuuugh

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: a Southern pecan
Upcoming appointments: June 5th (just a checkup and blood draw) and NT scan on June 15th
How are you feeling: Less nausea and fatigue, which is great. Overall I feel fine (still pregnant, but generally fine), which is naturally making me worry
Rants/Raves: Raves -- had a great productive weekend, making up for the weekend I lost prior to that due to nausea/fatigue Rants -- Screwed up something at work and still kicking myself for it. It's not a huge deal, but something that is causing extra work for other people, which is making me feel badly.
Questions: None right now
GTKY: If you were a superhero, what powers would you have? Watched Captain Marvel recently, and that seemed cool to me: flying, strength, manipulating energy
Team Green/Pink/Blue: I’ll find out with nipt draw soonish
Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: cherry
Upcoming appointments: nothing scheduled yet, didn’t get a callback today from my ob, I’ll try again in the morning.
How are you feeling: Nervous, scared, stressed
Rants/Raves: this will be a double rant.
Rant #1 We found out DH grandfather had terminal cancer on Monday, he died Saturday. This was so sudden, we are all in a bit of shock Rant #2 Not sure if it was stress or what but I started light tan/brown spotting on Friday. Passed small blood clot on Sunday evening. Not much pain for any of this so decided not to have an ultrasound since it would be vaginal and might increase my spotting which would be counterproductive.
Questions:
GTKY: If you were a superhero, what powers would you have? I want to have powers to have the dishes, laundry, etc to do itself. So telekinesis
@stella_700 I'm so sorry! That's so fast and unexpected. Are you allowed to hold a small funeral or not yet? DHs Grandmother died a few weeks ago, they were allowed 10 people outside at the burial but no funeral, it still doesn't feel real.
@willashbaby Thanks. I’m so sorry for your and your DH loss also. With all this going on it feels like we should put grief on hold, our method of grieving is so tied to the rituals we’ve created, even though feelings don’t work that way. He had all his wishes laid out very clearly as he was a financial planner in his work career. He requested cremation and internment at his families’ mausoleum in Seattle so a local funeral wasn’t going to happen anyway. We did miss the big wake that would of happened here though. We will gather later to celebrate his life in Seattle.

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: Strawberry
Upcoming appointments: Finally on Monday yay! I’m excited but very nervous and anxious as this is my first one. I just want to know something is actually growing in there lol.
How are you feeling: Ugh.. I’m dying of seasonal allergies. Nose has been dripping like a tap non stop. Sneezing all day long and my nose is so raw it feels like sandpaper. My back aches have started this week and my back hurts all day long everyday which sucks and has been hard to function at work. Overall I’m kinda miserable haha.

Questions: Nothing.
GTKY: If you were a superhero, what powers would you have? Not having any allergies lol I would be immune to everything.
