Re: PGAL check in 7/27
How are you feeling (symptoms, mentally/emotionally)? Shrug...I’m mentally preparing myself for the worst.
GTKY: do you have any pets? If yes, tell us about them! I have 3 pets- 1 American bulldog (Jack), 2 cats-Layla and Minnie
How far along are you? 7w6d
How are you feeling (symptoms, mentally/emotionally)? symptoms-wise, terrible. But I won't repeat myself from other threads lol. Mentally, a little on edge. My MC was around 8w3d, so I'm pretty anxious for next week's US.
GTKY: do you have any pets? If yes, tell us about them! lol I know I chose this question but I don't have any pets! We had a beagle named Pato, but he was really my sister's, so when she moved, she took him with her. And we've had fish and hamsters/gerbils over the year but nothing lately. H is dying for guinea pigs though lol

How are you feeling (symptoms, mentally/emotionally)? Pretty good. Light nausea... although I'm worried for the symptoms to really kick in, it also makes me less anxious, so.... bring it on lol. Just strattling the line between getting excited and staying cautiously optimistic.
GTKY: do you have any pets? If yes, tell us about them! Yes- a helllla old Chihuahua named Sunny and a super douchy cat named bummers (my boyfriend's cat) haha.
How are you feeling (symptoms, mentally/emotionally)? Symptoms are in full swing but am still so anxious to get past my first appointment to find out where my hcg levels are and to have made it past the date of each of my previous losses.
GTKY: do you have any pets? If yes, tell us about them! No pets for us right now. We will eventually get another dog.
How are you feeling (symptoms, mentally/emotionally)? Symptoms are so much stronger than with DS, and also stronger than my previous 3 MCs. Nausea, sore breasts, fatigue, difficulty sleeping. Emotionally, I’m doing ok now since symptoms are generally getting worse even with fluctuations. Yesterday was my worst day symptom wise. The first day that I had decreased symptoms though (about a week ago) I cried for two hours. It’s definitely a mind game. But now I understand they can fluctuate so I know a better day doesn’t mean the worst.
GTKY: do you have any pets? Dog and cat! Yorkie lhasa mix and a orange Persian.
How are you feeling? Anxious, hopeful. I’m not as sick as I was with my first pregnancy yet which makes me nervous. So grateful to have a good ultrasound yesterday without having to wait.
Any upcoming appointments? As long as I don’t bleed any more, my next appt will be 8/10 for 8 week ultrasound.
How are you feeling (symptoms, mentally/emotionally)? Symptoms come and go which freaks me out a bit. Nausea, vertigo (battle that even when not pg), boobs (armpits, really?), so hungry. Emotionally, well Saturday I woke up at 445 and my boobs hadn't hurt in a few days so I convinced myself everything was over. Yesterday I had my final ultrasound with my RE and there was a lovely heartbeat. I was 7w6d and baby was 8w1d. My previous losses were at 13w4d and 8w3d so I'm very nervous. This pregnancy is drama-free compared to my most recent loss and I don't remember much about my 13wk loss as that was 10 yrs ago. Both were missed miscarriages.
GTKY: do you have any pets? If yes, tell us about them! My husband and I met rather late in life and at that time he had 2 cats and I had 2 cats so now we have 4 cats and this will NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN. We have my 2 girls, Lucy and Kitty Gaga (Goes by Gah), and his 2 boys Bahamut and Tiamat (named after dragons in D&D). Everyone is altered so no kittens coming but the tension in the house can be a bit much.
How are you feeling (symptoms, mentally/emotionally)? So tired and nauseous. Starving but then don’t want to eat what’s in front of me. I started vomiting this week too. Have been pretty nervous my colleagues would pick up on my pregnancy but luckily I haven't vomited at work yet.
GTKY: do you have any pets? If yes, tell us about them! I have two dogs. One is a pedigree (13yrs) and one is a rescue (14yrs)
