Baby is the size of a(n) / interesting fact: Sweet pea
FTM/STM/TTM+: Hopefully STM, currently mom of an 18 mth old boy
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: Hoping it's a girl; but we are going to get the doctor to send our friends the gender to do a reveal. The last time she did a scan of baby and told us "and here you can see the penis!"
Upcoming Appointments: 4 Aug
How are you feeling?: Cautiously optimistic. I am always checking when I wipe and trying to will the week to pass faster.
Rants/Raves: I had boob soreness yesterday which reminded me strongly of when I went too long without pumping back when I was still breastfeeding.
Questions: How is everyone keeping fit? I was playing tennis for a while but I'm not so sure I should continue.
GTKY: Fave summer snack? It's summer all the time here, and almost all of our fruits are imported. I love cherries year round.
@geminigirl16 thinking of you ❤️ Hoping you ovulated late and they have a heartbeat at the next US. The beginning is always the scariest but I have faith! ❤️❤️❤️
@bananasb I've just been doing the elliptical for 30 minutes a day, but the nausea has gotten so bad I might have to take a break:/ I will probably start up my kickboxing and weight routines instead and see how that goes...
@Panaceia thanks for the info! I have a prenatal with no folic acid and one with about 1000mcg so I'll take that one. Yes! I'm so frustrated but I'm hoping good news means no news.
@jlbaker08 I hate, hate, hate the glucose testing!! Good luck and hope it goes by quickly. @trails15 I love the olympics too!
EDD / Weeks + Days: 5 +4
Baby is the size of a(n) / interesting fact: App. says a sesame seed...pretty boring.
FTM/STM/TTM+: TTM (2 DD's)
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: Definitely finding out! I fully believe it is a girl...I just picture us an all girl family. I suspect the dog and my husband will remain outweighed.
Upcoming Appointments: Third week of August. Seems like a long way off.
How are you feeling?: A bit tired, food aversion coming, and a little bit of nausea comes every now and then. Both my pregnancies the nausea hit full force at 6 weeks.
This is the only app I have, so, blueberry. Excited to see what it changes to tomorrow!
FTM/STM/TTM+: STM, 3rd pregnancy.
Team Finding Out/Blue/Pink/Green: I so badly want to be Team Green this time around. We will see though!
Upcoming Appointments: First OB appt was today, got to see baby! Next appt in Aug 25th
How are you feeling?: Today was a good day was extremely anxious heading into my appt today for honestly no other reason than the last time I was in the same building it was for a MC.
Rants/Raves: DH has been an angel the last couple weeks picking up all the slack in housework that I haven’t been able to keep up with. So grateful for him.
Also so happy to be on a 9-day work break after the worst 2 shifts in a long time. C*VID is rampant in my area right now and ERs are at more than capacity. It’s so disheartening.
Questions: Anyone else still required to go to all appointments alone? We may end up paying for an elective US in a few weeks just so DH can see baby.
GTKY: Fave summer snack? Right now? Nothing. But usually very into summer ripe peaches!
@geminigirl16 I am so sorry you got disappointing news. The waiting is the absolute hardest. Be kind to yourself and allow yourself to feel whatever you need to ❤️
@Nik102 I had essentially the same rant as you. I have so many coworkers leaving the ER setting for surgical services, infusion centers, and out patient clinics. It’s starting to become too much to stay. Surviving the last 18 months felt nearly impossible but to feel it ramping back up again has brought on so many feelings of overwhelm and dread.
@nightnurse I’m in the ICU and we are losing people at an alarming rate. I have been looking around myself the past week at opportunities not directly at the bedside or more of an outpatient setting. It’s sad, I never thought I’d feel this way because I do love critical care. As of right now I’m allowed to have people at my appointments but I’m sure that’s going to change soon since Covid is on the rise here. Hang in there!
