GTKY: when you were younger, what did you want to be when you grew up? Is it very different from what you’re doing now? Haha I wanted to be a figure skater but also a vet with 17 children. Very different from what I am now. H will be getting snipped if we get our second take home baby. No 17 kids for me!
FTM/STM/STM+: FTM (with my 20 week boy in my heart 💙)
GTKY: when you were younger, what did you want to be when you grew up? Is it very different from what you’re doing now? I wanted to be an illustrator 😅 I'm in B2B marketing now and not known for the best artistic skills!
GTKY: when you were younger, what did you want to be when you grew up? Is it very different from what you’re doing now? I wanted to be a pediatrician or a veterinarian. I am a lab director so still in the medical field but not patient facing. It's a much better fit for me!
GTKY: when you were younger, what did you want to be when you grew up? Is it very different from what you’re doing now? When I was younger I wanted to be a teacher or chef. I went to culinary school and worked in fine dining for years. Now I work in tech as a sales manager, so that’s kind of like being a teacher. I help my team reach their full potential and prepare for future roles, so yeah I guess it’s kind of the same?
GTKY: when you were younger, what did you want to be when you grew up? Is it very different from what you’re doing now? I wanted to be a vet, then a hotel manager, then a sahm. I didn’t get to veterinary school, but I did manage apartment communities, and now I’m a sahm. So, close enough?
GTKY: when you were younger, what did you want to be when you grew up? Is it very different from what you’re doing now? I wanted to be a nurse and now I dispatch for the local transit system. I've also worked as a bank teller, insurance sales person and vet assistant.
It took me awhile to figure out what I wanted to do 😅
FTM/STM/STM+: This will be my fourth
GTKY: when you were younger, what did you want to be when you grew up? Is it very different from what you’re doing now? I wanted to be a marine biologist but realized in HS I wasn't a science person so much different than what I do now (project manager).

When I was really young I wanted to be a mailman or a fire fighter. This was mainly because of a Little People Main Street toy I had. 😂 As I got older, I thought about Physical Therapy. I really wish I would’ve pursued that more but all of the science scared me and I didn’t have teachers that presented it well in high school. I ended up going into teaching in the end and I’m a stay at home mom now. 😊
5/19, 6 weeks on Thursday.
This will be my fourth. I have a 12 yo daughter, 9 yo son and 4 yo daughter.
Fiancé wants to be team green.. maybe... I really need to know! So who knows. I’m working on him. I’m afraid if I find out and he doesn’t I’ll ruin the surprise somehow.
I think the app said Appleseed today?
First appointment on Friday for bloodwork and “pregnancy education” (which I laughed at, this will be my 4th. I certainly haven’t forgot anything! Tried to get out of it but they are making me go LOL). Appointment on 10/8 for US.
honestly I feel really terrible. So nauseous. I’ve been really sick in my last pregnancies with hyperemesis gravidarum. Lost 28 pounds with my first by 6 months. The next two were managed a little better but still wound up in hospital with all. Doesn’t look like this will be much different. I’m super tired as well.
Why do prenatals have to make you feel so icky?! And is anyone else severely (TMI) constipated??

I wanted to be a police officer. I did join the military in 06 so I suppose part of me fulfilled that, though I was in intelligence operations. Now I own a marketing agency specializing in the commercial real estate industry.
Hear ya on the prenatals - I have to split mine up and take them throughout the day bc they make me feel so sick! @brynn_mamaof4
GTKY: when you were younger, what did you want to be when you grew up? Is it very different from what you’re doing now? I was pre-med in college, and realized as I was studying for the MCATs that I didn't want to be a doctor. And now I'm in digital marketing (much to the disappointment of my family...). Whoops!

Finding Out
a pearl
Next week on Oct 1
Exhausted, sore boobs, and no vomiting but constant low-grade nausea all dang day
I’ve heard that nausea usually subsides somewhat after the first tri, but do you ever get your energy back? Anything you’ve found helpful for overcoming the fatigue?

I wanted to be an actor, which I am! It’s definitely a lot harder and less glamorous than I imagined when I was younger, but working in comedy and writing for myself/ developing my own projects has also turned out to be a lot more rewarding and empowering than the straight acting path my younger self thought I would take.
@feelingjovani - also a big bravo head over here. Very curious to see what RHOSLC is like!
