Weeks Pregnant: 9w 4d


Baby is the Size of a: Southern pecan


FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: TTM


Appointments: Nothing till for a couple weeks


How are you feeling? Terrible. Nausea kept me up last night. SPD is already affecting me.


Rants/raves? I am so sick of feeling sick. I know it's temporary, but my gosh, I feel like I will never feel normal again. Rave though is that my OB recommended getting the covid vaccine, and I am signed up for this afternoon!


GTKY: What is the first vacation/trip you would like to take after covid improves (*fingers crossed*)? Hopefully Maui toward the end of my maternity leave next fall!

Weeks Pregnant: 8+5 (using ultrasound dating not LMP now)


Baby is the Size of a: wild strawberry


FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: TTM


Appointments: 1/7 for initial OB and I am counting down the days.


How are you feeling? I feel great. Veryyyy mild nausea if I don’t eat and sore breast still, but getting better. Honestly the lack of symptoms makes my PGAL brain go crazy.


Rants/raves? I’m ready to exercise and have sex again. I’ve been on pelvic rest and not allowed exercise until my doctor reviews my ultrasound. Which was 12/22. It takes 24/48 for them to get them from imagining and then the holiday. So I’m trying to be patient and understanding, but I’ve checked my email a dozen times this morning waiting for her report. I *could* go from the radiologist report that says everything is peachy aside from a very small SCH and assume that means I can have some activity but that seems foolish.


GTKY: What is the first vacation/trip you would like to take after covid improves (*fingers crossed*)? We had a cruise scheduled the rona killed. So I’d love that. But that won’t be for a while because pregnancy now & not going with a young baby. I really want to go to Utah & Wyoming. MH wants to go to NY. We travel a lot.

Weeks Pregnant: 9+3

Baby is the Size of a: cherry

FTM, STM, TTM, etc.: gestational surrogate this go around. Third pregnancy.

Appointments: I had one this morning and baby was looking great. Intended parents were on FaceTime and they are getting more excited since things are right on track. Next step is to graduate from IVF clinic and transition to my own
OB. I have an appointment with my OB on 1/4. Plus I will be able to stop meds at the end of this week —hallelujah for no more injections. My poor hips.

How are you feeling? Not great. Still quite a bit of nausea and fatigue and that horrible bitter taste in my mouth which makes me more nauseas. I’m hoping maybe getting off meds might help with symptoms but I’m not sure.

Rants/raves: My XH and I shared a dog (Ace) together for the 10 years we were together. After our divorce 3 years ago Ace still lived with XH but we are fairly amicable and have joint custody of my 6 year old so I still got to see Ace a fair amount. We had to put him down yesterday. He was old and couldn’t stand up anymore on his own. I’m sad about it. 2020 just keeps on giving..

GTKY: what is the first vacation/trip you would like to take after Covid improves? I’m really wanting to go to the Columbia River Gorge area and do some hiking. I’m also dreaming of international destinations in Quebec/Montreal or possibly Norway. International might be a couple more years down the road though when DD gets older or maybe just a trip for just MH and I.

Yay for getting the vaccine thatgolfb! I’m still waiting to schedule mine hit hopefully soon since I’m in healthcare.

Hope you get your results soon onyx.

[sammysam]

friendofdobby I'm so sorry about your dog:(

onyx I am right with you on the lack of symptoms givimgvmy PGAL brain way too much stress. I need the throwing up to start now thank you very much.

Weeks Pregnant: 5+5 (O) or 5+3 (LMP)


Baby is the Size of a: Seasame seed?


FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: TTM


Appointments: January 25th first ultrasound


How are you feeling? Way too good to be comfortable.


Rants/raves? Stupid tests are still giving me stress. I need to stop taking them. The digital is still saying 2-3 weeks (I read many people don't get 3+ until after 6 weeks but still...) and I may have just ordered more FRER to put my mind at ease...but they don't get here until Thursday. Plus add in the lack of symptoms and I am a mess:/


GTKY: What is the first vacation/trip you would like to take after covid improves (*fingers crossed*)? I traveled so much when I was young that I kind of just like staying close to home. I'm mostly excited to be able to start taking the girls to their activities again!!!

[sarahh]

Hi can I join? I didn’t think I would be here again but I guess I am (cautiously).

A little about me... I have 3 girls (5, 3 as of yesterday and 1). I’ve also had 3 miscarriages - one between each successful pregnancy. It has always taken us months to get pregnant and I had to track everything. We weren’t planning on anymore kids because honestly things are hard with the ages we have now. I work full time and all are in daycare (kindergartener is just after school now).

Weeks Pregnant: not sure since I wasn’t tracking. I think 5-6 weeks

Baby is the Size of a: ??

FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: 4TM 😭

Appointments: 2nd blood draw is Wednesday. HCG today was 1,765. I usually have low progesterone so they put me on oral progesterone and I’m taking baby aspirin as well.

How are you feeling? Okay other than some nausea and constipation

Rants/raves? None - still processing

GTKY: What is the first vacation/trip you would like to take after covid improves (*fingers crossed*)? We were planning to go to Hershey this summer for my oldests 6th birthday but not sure that will happen now.

[sammysam]

Congratulations sarahh !!!

Weeks Pregnant: 6w2d


Baby is the Size of a: sweet pea


FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: stm


Appointments: this Wednesday for ultrasound and first appointment.


How are you feeling? I threw up for the first time tonight. It kind of threw me off because I’m used to the nausea and only threw up 2x when I was pregnant with my DD. Other than that still super sore boobs, nausea, exhaustion.


Rants/raves? My H and I keep talking about “if this one sticks around...” we are being so cautious after our loss earlier this year. And the closer I get to that mmc date the more nervous I am.


GTKY: What is the first vacation/trip you would like to take after covid improves (*fingers crossed*)? I’d love to go out to Oklahoma to see family. We were going to go out this past May but obviously that didn’t happen.

[friendofdobby]

Congrats and welcome sarahh

Weeks Pregnant: 9 weeks tomorrow


Baby is the Size of a: raspberry


FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: STM


Appointments: ultrasound and first appointment on 1/14


How are you feeling? Honestly not great. I’m so nauseous and exhausted. I’ve taken a nap everyday! I’m eating a little at a time and sipping on cold liquids. My anxiety isn’t great either. I’m so afraid of another mmc and it took years for this surprise to happen.


Rants/raves? Just tired and nauseous and anxious


GTKY: What is the first vacation/trip you would like to take after covid improves (*fingers crossed*)? Honestly I have no idea. Maybe a trip to Florida to see family. That was our last real trip in October 2019 other than our cabin, but that’s a common trip for us since it’s secluded and ours.

Congrats and welcome sarahh!

I actually postponed- I was feeling so shitty all day yesterday that I left work early and napped and figured I shouldn't go in to the hospital. But I am rescheduled for Saturday!

Congrats and welcome sarahh!
