When is your due date? How far along are you?
7/21. 7w 2d
How big is baby?
Blueberry
Any upcoming appointments?
I have one today with my old Dr. I don't like him but its hard to find an ob in my area and I want an ultrasound. Hopefully he'll agree to send me a referral.
Any new symptoms or changes?
The constipation and gas are killing me (and my family 🙈). I've tried milk of magnesia, miralax, high fiber foods, and prune juice. My stomach hurts all the time, and it's not just nausea. 😣
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
My DD brought home a cold and the whole family is sick now. So it's even harder to sleep and every time I cough I feel like I'm going to barf and I can't stop sneezing. 🤧
GTKY: What is your favorite reality show?
Probably teen mom/teen mom2.

When is your due date? How far along are you? July 30 - 6 weeks
How big is baby? Sweet pea
Any upcoming appointments? Viability ultrasound scheduled for Wednesday
Any new symptoms or changes? Morning sickness is in full swing. Throwing up and nausea all day. Also, I have milk coming out of my breasts already,that was surprising.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I hate 1st trimester. That is all.

When is your due date? How far along are you? July 28, 6+2
How big is baby? Chocolate Chip
Any upcoming appointments? Not for 2 weeks
Any new symptoms or changes? Morning/all day sickness hit hard yesterday, can't really look at or think about food, but no actual vomiting yet. I started B6, with the plan to add in Unisom tonight. If that doesn't work, I'm calling the doctor.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I am fully regretting being pregnant right now, even though I know I won't in the big picture. I feel like I have the flu, and I'm expected to carry on with my normal life (really trying hard not to tell work until Mid-January due to work stuff)
GTKY: What is your favorite reality show? Chopped, if that even counts? I don't love reality TV.

I had my ultrasound this morning and my OB moved up my due date 3 weeks to June 21 which puts me at 11w4d, but based on my LMP I could be as far along as 13 weeks. He updated my chart to 11w4d though, so we're sticking with that
Long story, but I had no period in Oct and pushed for a blood test. The nurse that called said it was negative but the OB I saw today looked and said it was right on the the cutoff and I was likely JUST pregnant. I'm a little peeved the nurse said it was negative instead of scheduling another test the following week or something. So I guess I should move to the June board 😔

I'll add the u/s pic for fun though. As soon as I saw it I knew it was not an 8 week baby. And it waved 😍
*poof*

When is your due date? How far along are you? According to the internet, my due date is 8/11. I realized to day it is 8/11/18.  I'll find out at my ultrasound. They can do it when my number is 1500. How big is baby? poppy seed? Any upcoming appointments? I have had 2 blood draws to check HCG. Friday it was 240 and today it was 882. I go back on Wednesday for another one. Any new symptoms or changes? Just some mild cramping and sore breasts Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? GTKY: What is your favorite reality show? I love all the cooking shows and I'll watch Dancing with the Stars depending on who is on it. |

When is your due date? July 29
How far along are you? 6 weeks 1 day
How big is baby? Pomegranate seed
Any upcoming appointments? I should probably make my first appointment...
Any new symptoms or changes? Nah
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I’ve basically been hoping for a boy for....a few pregnancies. Today I had my first panic moment of what if it’s not a girl?! I have 3 girls. Wtf do I do with a boy?! Lol. I’m sure it will pass. But this is one of the reasons I’m team green forever. Whatever weird feelings I get about either sex, I have never been unhappy finding out while holding my beautiful baby. Although, I may never find another girl name again. So.
GTKY: What is your favorite reality show? I love any and all cooking competition shows. Mostly Top Chef.

When is your due date? How far along are you? 8/6, 5 weeks
How big is baby? Sesame seed
Any upcoming appointments? Another blood draw tomorrow and they should be able to schedule viability ultrasound after that.
Any new symptoms or changes? I had such bad cramps last night which got me paranoid but MH insists it was similar with DS.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? My yoga teacher today said she had a cold, ok fine. But then halfway through class she said she thought she had a fever. Fevers are so bad for first tri so I'm really hoping I didn't catch anything. I follow super germaphobe protocol throughout pregnancy so hopefully it pays off.
GTKY: What is your favorite reality show? Right now probably below deck. But I like most the real housewives franchises too.

My doctor put me on progesterone suppositories until 12 weeks. I've had spotting my last 3 pregnancies (last one ended in loss) and he thinks this might be my issue. He said it couldn't hurt so...
He also scheduled an ultrasound for tomorrow. I'm excited and really nervous. MH can't go and I have to take DS with, so hopefully all is well.

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
TW if you're currently nauseated...
omg, i had the stomach flu over the weekend. it. was. horrible. unfortunately i also had the stomach flu at around this point with DS2 so it wasn't a total surprise how next-level awful it was going to be. but i think the worst part was that i had taken 2 diclegis before bed bc i was feeling really nauseous... not realizing that it was stomach flu nausea and not garden variety pg nausea... so that drew the process out, providing hours and hours of horrific nausea and retching and gagging but not being able to throw up anything.
GTKY: What is your favorite reality show?
we dropped cable a couple of months ago, so right now, nothing.
before we cancelled, DS1 and i used to like to watch alaska: the last frontier and live free or die. alone, i used to watch horrible junk on e! like the kardashians and botched while i put away laundry.

notmoose, I was at 22 on Friday. That was my first blood draw at the RE so I am only about 4 weeks. I have had 4 pregnancies including this one. One was my DD who is now 5. The other 2 I always had low progesterone probably causing my loss. Did your doctor tell you what you number is? I think I did do the suppositories until 12 weeks last time. Kind of gross, but worth it. Haha

It hasn't been retested but I had some spotting too, so I guess those 2 things led him to believe it may be my progesterone. I hope the pills do the job. |

When is your due date? How far along are you? 7/17-7/20, around 8w
How big is baby? peanut m&m
Any upcoming appointments? in about an hour for a dating u/s!!!
Any new symptoms or changes? Not really....pooping really regularly lately - once every 4 days, lol. Super tired and the emotions and over-reactions are driving me (and DH) crazy!
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Super nervous about my appointment today. Seems like a lot of small things have been going wrong lately (my cc was hacked, lost packages of Christmas presents, DS in full-blown tantrum mode all the time, snow expected tomorrow night so we may not be able to go to Disney on Ice Saturday morning), really nothing critical, hence the over-reactions.
GTKY: What is your favorite reality show? I am strangely addicted to 'Are you the one?' because I'm a huge math geek. It fascinates and appalls me that none of the contestants can do the math to solve the matches. Also really enjoyed BB when lurking on the TCF Parenting board in '16 - it wasn't nearly as interesting this year after my BMB exited to Facebook.

tarheelmom , how did your appt go? my 2-year-old DS is also in constant full-blown tantrum mode, btw. last night he flipped (flopping on the floor screaming and kicking) because i wouldn't let him eat a salt dough ornament he made at daycare. We had a little scare because the dr didn't see an 8w baby, just the yolk sac and maybe the fetal pole (cue tears), then she maneuvered around a bit and suddenly baby was there with a heartbeat of 170! Measuring a bit behind at only 7w1d (new EDD of 7/25) which concerns me, but she said it looked good and apologized for the scare. I guess my fibroids distort my uterus making it more difficult to get a clear picture? That means I got a bfp at only 3w2d, or the baby isn't growing well. So I will be stressed until the next time we check (11w) because the dr wasn't at all concerned so saw no need to follow up earlier. eta pic Attachment Deleted |
