Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: snail
Upcoming appointments: 11/2 ultrasound and first OB exam
How are you feeling? Awful
Rants/Raves: why do we hide pregnancy in the beginning when it is terribly difficult to hide if you are throwing up all the time?!
Questions:
GTKY: What has been your favorite Halloween costume or what are you dressing up as this year? When I taught dance in college a little 5 year old girl came in a flamingo costume her mom made. I always said if I had a little girl she would be a flamingo for Halloween one year. My plan was to do it this year, but with covid and only having a socially distanced gathering with one family we will hold off on that for one more year. If this baby is a girl I am thinking they will both be flamingos next year.

Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: raspberry
Upcoming appointments: My first OB appointment is tomorrow, I'm quite nervous to find out if everything is still going okay (first check with my RE 2weeks ago was fine, but can't help but still be nervous). Also have appointment on Friday to get blood drawn at my RE to get my schedule to ween off IVF meds. I am so excited about this one, I can't wait to stop the PIO shots!
How are you feeling?: decent, actually. symptoms haven't been bad so far.
Questions:
GTKY: What has been your favorite Halloween costume or what are you dressing up as this year? We normally throw a halloween party every year, but obviously that's out this year and I never bothered with a costume. As an adult I usually just buy a costume out of a bag, so I'm going to go way back to when I was a kid for my best costume. When I was 4 or 5 my mom made me a homemade Rainbow Brite costume, it was identical to the dress my doll was wearing! She not only sewed all my costumes when I was little but also made a lot of my clothes so she was quite the seamstress! I hope I can do something like that for my little one.
@klj0228 omg, matching flamingo costumes sound adorable! and sorry you're feeling so sick, hope it eases up soon.

Upcoming appointments: not until 11/12
How are you feeling?: mornings are rough, nausea is in full swing
Rants/Raves: rant - not sure if this is quite a rant, but it’s always weird to me when people cc the boss when they’re accepting your offer to help after they asked for help. Like, do you not trust me to follow through? Or did they tell you to get help and now you’re proving it?
Questions:
GTKY: What has been your favorite Halloween costume or what are you dressing up as this year? Favorite was when a group of friends and I went as the 7 dwarves. A few bailed at the last minute, and we actually ended up with a write up in our local paper, they said we were out looking for the rest of the dwarves. Super fun! This year I’ll probably be a dinosaur again with DS
@ellieemc26 good luck tomorrow and Friday! My mom used to make my Halloween costumes, too. They were the best!
@mamakate2011 yay for feeling pretty good and getting a peek at baby!

How are you feeling?: yesterday and today I've been feeling SOOO much better. Extreme hunger is subsiding, and exhaustion is evening out. Right now my only symptoms are super sore tits and nips and tight jeans.
Rants/Raves: DH and I DTD for the first time since i found out i was pregnant. I must be feeling better!
Questions: Not really a questions. I've been feeling flutters the last 2 days or so - i know its impossible to feel baby at this point, but exciting none the less.
GTKY: What has been your favorite Halloween costume or what are you dressing up as this year? I was a theatre major in college so Im really into the makeup aspect and prostetics for halloween. My favorite costume was when DH and i went has the Underworld Characters, Selene & Michael Corvin. I found special contacts and tooth prostectics for vampire fangs, and I outdid myself with a specal gray scale makeup. It was epic. We lived in NYC at the time and really freaked people out. So fun. This year I got a cute shirt from an Etsy shop that says "Whinnie, i smell a child" with the Hocus Pocus witches on it and little footprints on my belly. I'll accesorize with a witch hat and some fun earings. This will be our pregnancy announcement to friends and neighbors.

6/6 / 8+3
So had the first OB appointment today and I have to say I am feeling so much more relaxed and okay about things now! I think I really did need to get out of the RE's office and get on a more normal track. Its also a new doc I had never met and I really liked her. She took the time to talk about all the things I was worried about and I just feel so much better about things now. Phew, now I just need to get myself refocused and get back to work!
