badwolf when is your due date now? Glad you had a good appointment! 8/17/18 now. Which I’m hating right now because I could see the first trimester end in sight. I’m having a really sick day so I’m cranky right now

I just started crying because my food is little and cute and it made me sad that I'm eating it (tiny fishes). Dammit, hormones.

I’m having a really sick day so I’m cranky right now Ugh that happened to me. I thought I was 11 weeks, and so close to the end, and nope, moved back to 9 weeks. I was sad, I feel your pain and crankiness.

I’m so anxious waiting for my NIPT results, could be anytime now.
Is it sad that I’m waiting to check in this week until I can say what team I’m on? Guessing pink 🎀 so it will probably be blue 🧢 lol.

I made green chili stew (from a mix 😂) and now I'm so full. I ate a bit too much but I was so hungry. MH finally got home from his trip after yesterday's flight getting cancelled. I was worried they would cancel it again so I'm glad to have him home.

MH took the kids out for dinner because DD's preschool is doing a fundraiser so I'm eating in peace. I overcooked my bacon, but I'm trying to look on the bright side. It's quiet and I don't have to share!

All I do is pee. All. The. Time. I've been trying to drink more water since my OB told me I should aim for 3L a day. So much peeing.

The only bright side I've found to the excessive peeing for 40 weeks is after I give birth I can hold it foreeeeeever. Like there were times I didn't want to wake the baby I'd just hold it until morning.

*Fingers crossed/knock on wood* But I think my nausea is settling down. Not completely, but I made it through the day without b6 and the nausea wasn't killer.

We went out of town while I was 20 weeks pregnant last time and I was so angry we couldn't explore as much as we wanted to, because I could not go further than 3 minutes away from the nearest restroom. I literally peed 17 times in one hour. I counted. Because I was so mad. Lol.

I got my DNA results back today, and fully expected it to be at least 90% Korean, since that's where both of my parents and their family are originally from and I've been told all my life I'm full Korean. I'm not. Only 2% Korean. My mind is completely blown. I'm 49% Northern Chinese and 40% Japanese, 9% Mongolian, and 2% Korean. WHO AM I?

wow kaeguri that is so interesting! I've been working at home the last two days but this morning I came into the office. I'm sulky about it so I stopped in a drive through and got 5 hashbrowns to eat at my desk. Because the only time I don't feel like poop is when I'm eating deep fried potatoes.

Wow kaeguri! How interesting. I always thought I’d be a 50/50 split but it’d be interesting to see if that’d be the case.

I have a painful sore throat today. Ughhhh. We’re supposed to go The Killers concert tonight but that doesn’t sound appealing with how I’m feeling.

I got an email from Counsyl that they got my sample for genetic carrier screening yesterday. I hope the results are back in less than two weeks. I do the blood draw for the baby next Thursday and I was hoping to have those results by the 8th. I guess we'll see. We planned on telling my parents on the 9th and I reeeeally wanted the test results first.

kaeguri, which company did you use for your ancestry test that was able to break it down so specifically by country? DH is half korean-- his sister got a test done through ancestryDENA and they only got as specific as "asia east."

Meh. Nausea seems stronger today but also even hungrier. I was hoping week 10 tomorrow would bring less nausea. 😔

DH is half korean-- his sister got a test done through ancestryDENA and they only got as specific as "asia east." So I did Ancestry and all mine said was 100% Eastern Asian and I was like wtf, I paid $100 for it to tell me what I already pretty much knew? But! If she goes to the settings, and downloads the raw data, she can take the zip file and upload it into WeGene or DNA.land (both are free) and it will give a more detailed breakdown. WeGene in particular is a Chinese based database, so has a ton of info on specific Chinese ethnicities. It pinpointed me down to Northern Han Chinese. Pretty cool stuff. GEDmatch also has more in depth genealogy tools as far as comparing chromosomal data but is not user friendly. At all. I'm so lost. I did find out I share almost identical DNA with 3 ancient samples from Russia and Siberia and one found in Montana that lived 5,000-12,000 years ago.
