I’m going to talk to my doctor about my depression at the next appointment. It’s gotten a bit unmanageable, but I really don’t want to get back on meds.

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? My face is breaking out like crazy still and to add insult, I woke up this morning with a zit on my nipple! WTF, body???
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure? I have so many! Probably the worst are 90's/2000's pop music (I love me some NSYNC) and bad reality tv shows like Seeking Sister Wife. And romance novels, although I don't have time for those as much now.

When is your due date? How far along are you? 11/29; 9 + 5
How big is baby? A southern pecan
Team Finding Out / Team Green? Blue
Any Upcoming Appointments? None until our next regular OB appointment on 5/22.
Symptoms: Mostly just exhausted, my kid hasn't been sleeping great, and I've been waking myself up feeling uncomfortable and having to pee. I feel like it's waaaaay too early to be sleeping this crappy, but here I am.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? DS has suddenly turned into a threenager, and developed a serious phobia of bugs. Like, now that the weather is finally getting nice, we can hardly be outside because he's terrified of bugs. I think it's a combination of we're less than two months away from his third birthday, and I think he's finally processing that mom has an actual baby in her belly, and this might change some things. I've spent a lot of time the last few days giving him extra snuggles, telling him how much I love him, and trying to reassure him that this baby won't change how important he is in our family, and it seems to be helping a bit. I'm really hoping this is one of those phases that will pass fairly quickly.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure? Grocery store cake. It's so sickenly sweet, but I always tell H he needs to go buy me one for little celebrations in life. Except for the last two months or so, because apparently this baby hates sweets.

When is your due date? How far along are you? Dec. 7th 8+4
How big is baby? Strawberry
Team Finding Out / Team Green? finding out
Any Upcoming Appointments? Official intake and weekly ultrasound were today
Symptoms: this nausea is the worst. My doctor gave me a ton of dicglesis (?) samples to see if that helps. I’ve only ever taken zofran and the unisom and b6 so we will see. Also, I’m having an allergic reaction on my chin and cheeks. I haven’t tried any new skincare so I’m guessing it’s the hormones.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? It was nice to see the little gummy bear today. I’m glad I get to see the baby every week, but I’m ready to be at the part where I don’t have panic attacks before each appointment.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure? I have several, but mashed potatoes is number 1. I make my famous potatoes a few times week and sometimes eat them as snacks and dessert.

Team Finding Out / Team Green? Finding out
Any Upcoming Appointments? Meeting the genetics counselor on Mon to discuss testing
Symptoms: nausea/constant need to eat. Tired.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Pretty sure my parents suspect that I’m pregnant because I stayed at their house last weekend and didn’t order a drink at dinner. That’s how they knew last time too. I swear I don’t drink that much, but I guess I just rarely turn down an opportunity!
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure? The Bachelor/Bachelorette. Also some Bravo reality shows

My googling didn’t give me anything specific, it’s just odd. It itches sometimes and get a little red, but other than that it’s just like tiny bumps all over. |

So for those who listed trash tv as a guilty pleasure, anyone watching Southern Charm? I hated it last season but so far I’m digging this one.

I think I like this season more because so many of the couples broke up. It’s nice to see all the girls getting along! Pregnant Cameran is also very relatable. |

I love that show charlotte. I went to school with one of the ‘bad’ girls on the show many years ago and I loved watching her drama unfold. I didn’t realize it was still on. I know what I’ll be doing later! |

Due date: 12/6, 9w 1d
Size: Pecan
Finding Out/Team Green: Finding out
Upcoming appts: I have a nurse visit 5/18 for health history, “prenatal education”—whatever that is, and bloodwork. Then my 12w appt on 5/24.
Symptoms: My nausea seems to have lessened but that could be due to the Unisom/B6 so I’m scared to stop it and find out. Still sore boobs and exhaustion. And now I’m starving all the time. I’m really starting to think I’ll gain 50+ lbs with the way I’ve been eating lately.
Rants/Raves/AW/??: I’m just so glad we’re finally starting to have some warm sunny days. Now if only I could have some time off work to enjoy them!
Guilty pleasure: A big ice cream sundae with hot fudge, whipped cream, and walnuts while watching trashy reality TV.
