    Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: jalapeno 

    Upcoming appointments: July 7, OB phone call.  

    How are you feeling? Good most of the time.

    Rants/Raves: I booked an elective ultrasound for next week so hubby could see baby, but we are in a 28 day lockdown.  Ugh!

    Questions: Is anyone else looking pregnant?  This is my fourth and I'm sure a chunk of this is bloat but omg I'm looking large.  

    GTKY: How will you be ringing in the new year?  On my sofa, in bed long before midnight.  Hoping for some Thai food take out.

    Team Green/Pink/Blue/Finding Out: Team Green

    Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: can fit on a tea light candle

    Upcoming appointments: NT scan on January 13

    How are you feeling?: meh ok. Some days are better than others. They had me start on Pepcid twice a day because my heartburn and indigestion was out of control (it was with my other pregnancies too). Also currently on ABX for a mild UTI. The joys of pregnancy.

    Rants/Raves: My nausea has subsided ever so slightly since Christmas, so that has been a plus. I’ve been staring at piles of Christmas presents since Christmas, and I don’t know what to do with them. Zero motivation to put them away!

    Questions: anyone’s boobs suddenly hurt a ton more lately? I can’t tell if it’s my bra or what, but holy ouch. They are so sensitive!

    GTKY: How will you be ringing in the new year? DH works until close. When he gets home probably have dinner, watch some TV, then go to bed early. 
  • @tigglywiggles yes, I feel like I look pregnant already. Feeling very fluffy.

    Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: lemon

    Upcoming appointments: end of January 

    How are you feeling? Starting to feel a little better

    Rants/Raves: I have lost 12lbs as of today. I had about 30 to lose before I got pregnant, so it's nice to have lost a little before the weight gain starts. 

    Questions: Not at the moment

    GTKY: How will you be ringing in the new year?  On my couch. Doing absolutely nothing!
  • @tiggywiggles yep I’m looking large already too!

    FTM/STM/STM+: 3rd

    Team Green/Pink/Blue/Finding Out: Green

    Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: it weighs as much as a piece of bread

    Upcoming appointments: had my monthly visit today, so nothing until the end of January

    How are you feeling?: pretty good. I'm feeling the 2nd tri energy on it's way thankfully.

    Rants/Raves: rave - got my NIPS results in today and all is normal!! Also, the added temptation of clicking a button and knowing the sex has me quite anxious... lol. NT scan also looked perfect as did all other bloodwork so I am very relieved and very thankful.

    Questions: STM+ when do you remember feeling movement/flutters for the first time? I know I'm only a couple weeks away from it but I just can't wait to feel this little one moving around!

    @tiggywiggles umm yes. I've had multiple family members comment on how much "I'm showing already" and to be honest I feel like I look 6 months pregnant already, yikes. I know most of it is bloat/pudge and the fact that I'm wearing form fitting maternity clothes doesn't help either. 

    GTKY: How will you be ringing in the new year? probably eating Chinese and playing games with DH and DS. Low Key and that's fine with me!

    Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: lemon? 

    Upcoming appointments: Jan 5 for u/s and midwife Appt 

    How are you feeling?: still not great. Nausea isn’t 24/7 but still not great. Food aversions prevail. 

    Rants/Raves: I want to spend the time while I clean tidying the house but I have no energy or motivation. I did part of the upstairs which was good but I need to do the downstairs and the office. NIPT results were all clear! 

    Questions:

    GTKY: How will you be ringing in the new year? 

    Genuinely no clue. Haven’t thought of it yet. 😬

    *Live, Love, Laugh, Learn*

  • @tiggywiggles, yes! I am definitely already showing if I wear something fitted. This didn’t happen until week 24-25 for me. 😳 

    *Live, Love, Laugh, Learn*

  • @karacc18, I was probably around 16-17 weeks I think. 

    *Live, Love, Laugh, Learn*

    Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: Strawberry 

    Upcoming appointments: 1/8 at a preterm birth prevention center 

    How are you feeling?: Pregnancy wise I feel fine. Still doing the throwing up 4-5 times a week but feeling better after so I really cannot complain. I was pretty crampy yesterday and think I overdid it with the painting so tried to take it easier today. I’m anxious but trying not to be bc there is nothing I can do

    Rants/Raves: N/A

    Questions: None

    GTKY: How will you be ringing in the new year? 
    Our library is hosting a virtual Noon Years Eve for the kids, and I bought some fake bubbly and decor/hats/blowers to make it fun. Other than that I will probably be asleep before midnight 😂

    Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: size of a lime

    Upcoming appointments: with family doctor on Jan 4 and NT US on Jan 7

    How are you feeling?: pretty good. I feel my energy coming back ever so slightly but the insomnia is gross. 

    Rants/Raves: I can’t think of anything...

    Questions: natm 

    @tiggywiggles I pulled out maternity clothes last week because waistbands became too uncomfortable/I’m not going anywhere anyway and since then my MIL has pointed out my belly a handful of times. 😑 but it’s still just bloat really, it disappears over night. 

    @karacc18 I felt movement at 16 weeks last time and I’m really eager to feel it again! FX for a well positioned placenta lol

    GTKY: How will you be ringing in the new year? Doing nothing. H is on night shift so it would be a small miracle if I made it up past 9. 
  • Hi all! First time checking in over here. looking forward to getting to know everyone.

    Team Green/Pink/Blue/Finding Out: Green (sort of. I think my husband is finding out)

    Interesting Baby Fact/Baby is the size of: brussels sprout apparently. which is much smaller than the limes and lemons mentioned above haha. whatever.

    Upcoming appointments: Jan 6th. First official OB spt, and its not actually with my OB (long story), but hopefully the rest are with my OB. Especially since I am on a reduced schedule at work via short term disability (dang HG)

    How are you feeling?: awful. I had HG in my first pregnancy and have it again. Although thanks to reglan I am able to have more "decent" days than I remember having at this point in my last pregnancy. So I will take that as a win. Only a week or so until my OB lets me into the promise land of zofran. 

    Rants/Raves: nothing really. just tired of feeling nauseated a pukey 24/7

    Questions: NATM

    GTKY: How will you be ringing in the new year? by going to bed as early as possible! lol. Will have korean new years soup on new years day though. One of the few foods I can tolerate right now with HG (called tteokguk, simple beef soup basically, with plain rice cakes and dumplings). My husband is Korean and I look forward to this soup every year.

    GTKY: How will you be ringing in the new year? Going to sleep early because im boring lol
  • @marikkita12 I was taking Tums but those weren’t helping at all. My OB put me on Pepcid 20mg twice a day. It has helped immensely!
