I’m still sick. How is everyone else?
I also can’t get enough eggs. All day.

onyx, oh no! So sorry you're still sick. I am still nauseous. Some days are worse than others. Sunday was a good day, yesterday and today are mediocre to poor. I'm less tired, I think? I did take a nap yesterday. I love eggs. They were an aversion for a little while but I am back to loving them. Which is good, because basically no other protein sounds good to me. We actually ran out this weekend, so I am waiting for our Imperfect box to arrive today to get more.

I called to schedule my anatomy scan, and was surprised that they were willing to do it as early as 18 weeks (which coincidentally was the only date they had available because they don't have the March schedule yet). That seems early? But I scheduled it for exactly 18 weeks. I may call back in a couple weeks and see if they have anything later. But I guess they wouldn't offer it at that point if they couldn't see everything.
My fetuses are notoriously bad at the anatomy scan. I had to come back with both because the babies wouldn't turn the right way for them to see the heart. Rude babies.
I have my NT scan today and I am hoping they print out some pics for me. I didn't get any the first scan (not that I would have been able to see anything anyway).

I am still so hit or miss with the nausea and fatigue. I guess that’s better than all day every day but I’m ready for some consistent energy and feeling better. This gross taste in my mouth still happens frequently too. Blerg.
Just went over the birth plan with intended parents (agency’s request to do it this early).. This is their first baby and I think they’re finally starting to let themselves get excited. I think as long as we have a good appointment and good results from NIPT this week then hopefully most of the anxiety will be gone.

thatgolfb how was the NT scan? Is there anything I should be prepared for? I’ve never had one with my other pregnancies so just not sure if it’ll be similar to an anatomy scan (obviously earlier) or what to expect.

thatgolfb what is an Imperfect box? I’ve never heard of that. I’ve seriously considered several times that maybe I have Covid and my test was wrong. I’m technically *getting better*, by that I mean I don’t have a runny nose and sore throat anymore. But my chest and back hurt and I can’t do much more than make a small meal and basic hygiene without being completely winded and getting lightheaded. And now MH is sick too. He’s going to get tested for Covid tomorrow. Also, let me just say I freaking hate my state and how people are. I’ve cancelled basically all of my life until further notice because even though I was diagnosed with the flu, I want to be cautious. Do you know how many people have been giving me crap about that!? Like I don’t want to be spreading the flu either people! Like c‘mon. When you’re sick you stay home. I guess this is why we’re almost a year into a global freaking pandemic 🙄 I’m super lucky that I really haven’t had much nausea and I’m 12 weeks Friday so maybe I’ll get out of that symptom at least. I had some on Sunday but fairly certain that was from coughing and congestion .

onyx I’m sorry that sounds really rough. I hope that no matter what you have you turn the corner soon. My family is all in a small town in central TX and it’s like the pandemic doesn’t exist there. Soooooo many pictures of huge family gatherings, big parties, etc. it’s so wild to me.

Slightly less in depth because they can’t see as much this early. I did have to have a full bladder for it. But otherwise she just took a bunch of pics and the perinatologist reviewed afterward. And everything looked good. Yay!

onyx imperfect produce! It’s a weekly produce delivery box, although you can add other non produce things as well. We love it! The prices are good for my area.

Ugh onyx I wonder if you were positive for both covid and flu but just didn’t turn up on the covid PCR. False negatives are pretty prevalent, unfortunately. And ugh to other people. Of course we should stay home when we are sick!

thatgolfb oh neat! I may have to check that out! I wonder that. MH woke up last night with intense shakes and a fever of 101. So he’s going to test today. If his comes back positive, I’ll retest. It was a rapid test and I’m super skeptical of those unfortunately.
