Sorry for everyone feeling exhausted and really nauseated!
My next US isn’t until a week from Friday, but I’m worrying that I don’t have an US this week and wondering if everything is ok. I’m half tempted to see if I could have an US this week and next.

I'm so thankful the unisom/b6 is working. I haven't thrown up in 2 days and only feel slightly nauseous. The unisom is not helping the fatigue, though! Is it nap time yet?? 😂

Omg. My doctors office called to say my panorama results are in but because my doc is on vacation I have to wait until Wednesday to get them!!!! But the receptionist said it’s “not urgent at all” so Im choosing to take that as “everything is great but I can’t say that.” It’s so weird that a lady in an office 10 mins away knows the sex of my baby but I don’t lol.

Tlex, I'd be more annoyed that I knew they were in I think LOL. Last time my nurse called with the results at a quarter to six on a Friday evening! She was all, I wouldn't want to wait to know, so I thought I'd surprise you!"

I should be cleaning the house or doing more preparation for Monday. Instead, it's my last day of summer break at home and I'm chilling on the couch while DD watches word party. We're going to get up at 5 am tomorrow morning to drive to MIL's for the weekend so this is my last bit of lounging without H or anyone judging me (and let's be real- I've done a TON of lounging all summer hahaha)

We're going to dinner with the ILs in a bit and I think we're going to tell them...eeek!
It feels strange telling people, it's kind of been nice to just have our secret this time, but it'll also be nice not to have to hide it anymore.

Well we have a secret for at least one more day, lol. FIL didn't come to dinner and I didn't want to tell without him there, so oh well. We plan on telling my parents/sister on Sunday.

We told MIL today. And she already told four other couples at the BnB, the shop owner at a store, and a random lady that had gone to high school with her. Now I'm paranoid it's going to get out (though my immediate family has known and my best friends do too), so I gave my parents the ok to tell their parents and we'll probably be coming out on FB tomorrow. Part of me thinks too soon, but then I see my obvious bloat and know physically I can't hide it for much longer bc of it being twins.

grover it's cute she was so excited. And I think everyone is ready to announce at different times, if you're ready to be fb official them go for it! That's exciting! Are you planning a fun/cheesy announcement or just stating it? Ftr, I'm all for fun cheesy announcements 😂

remi, exactly 7 weeks. We've had four sets of betas and two ultrasounds already. And I think it would be fairly obvious at work this week during teacher institute with me getting up to pee every forty minutes max. And the bloat is for real, while I was in maternity pants by 12/13 weeks last time, I've been in them for two and a half weeks already. 😂

Ftr, I'm all for fun cheesy announcements 😂 We said something about DD getting a double surprise for her second birthday with a picture of two onesies- one said "keep calm and carry on" and the other said "now panic and freak out". If we had waited (honestly I probably would have done so at 8 weeks this time, as it's so much harder to keep underwraps with having to chase the toddler), I would have tried to go more creative. We used the same onesies to let MIL know we we're pregnant with twins.

I'm skipping my nap today to deal with insurance stuff. I feel like this is a terrible idea 😂

I'm skipping my nap today to deal with insurance stuff. I feel like this is a terrible idea 😂 Ooooh. Good luck. I sat on the phone with my homeowner's insurance company for over an hour last week, and at the end the resolution was...nothing was resolved. Then there was that time that it took me 8 months to resolve a mistake in the hospital bill for my DD's birth. I don't insurance well.

Thankfully my first request was pretty simple, it took 10 minutes on hold for them to tell me I basically didn't need to call but 🤷♀️ I tried to call about coverage of NIPTs too and couldn't get through to a real person who could actually help me via any of the prompts so I gave up and sent an email for that and we'll see what happens 🙄

I had my intake appointment today. It was with a nurse practitioner since my OB is on vacation and couldn't get me in until sept. I really liked her. I now have my marching orders for more bloodwork, 24hour urine catch, and my ultrasound. I scheduled the ultrasound for Friday so now I have that to be nervous about.

I cooked dinner tonight! And I meal prepped a tiny bit. Usually I’m a big prepper, but baby steps. Just sharing to give hope to anyone who feels like the first tri fog is too thick to see through. It’s not gone but it’s getting better, I made it to 2 pm today before the nausea set in strong (11 weeks tomorrow).

As I'm trying to choke down metamucil because I'm so stopped up and feel miserable on top of nauseous all the time and the dog is trying to sit INSIDE OF ME I swear and everyone in my house is talking at once and the tv is on and all I want is to be alone in silence 😂 It gives me hope to be reminded that (hopefully) in just a few weeks a little bit of that will be relieved 🙏

Tlex You are the light at the end of the tunnel. Tomorrow I'm going to Aldi so I can find some cheap frozen things to heat up for dinner. Because that's about the amount of effort I can do right now.

Now I’m like omg lol. But it was actual hell at the time to have her be so needy right after I’d finally get my needy kids to bed! I have been super backed up too and it’s causing all kinds of issues. Do you shop at Costco? They have these things called Aussie Bites in the bakery section that are kind of magical and I’ve prescribed myself 2 a day.
