I think randoms are a nice way to get to know everyone, but didn't know what others thought.

I gave my second beta today. I'm so lucky my RE (and OB) are close enough to work to just take a lunch for a blood draw. Although I'm not a fan of taking lunch at 8:30 generally 😂
Not much else going on today besides making chili for dinner. I'm very excited for that!

I ordered a maternity pillow. I'm pretty freaking excited about it. I'm doing anything to get better sleep.

numbears I must confess that I never stopped using mine from my last pregnancy. Those things are the best!

I can't wait! My dog use to curl up against my back so it wasn't so bad last time, but I haven't been able to get her to stay long enough now.

We're also having chili for dinner, armpants. I should probably go start it soon. I just made myself a quick two egg omelette & it was so good. Just simple feta & tomato with salt & pepper, nothing too crazy, but still delicious. I need to run up & get the toddler out of bed, but she's making happy noises & I'm letting my food settle slightly.

I realized I forgot my progesterone last night. Crap. I took it now so hopefully that’s fine. And I called my MW’s office this morning. My nausea is so bad and debilitating. My first appointment isn’t until Thursday but I am really suffering right now

My first appointment isn’t until Thursday but I am really suffering right now Nausea is the worst. I’m on Diclegis and Zofran now and it’s hit and miss everyday. I would call and see if they can call something in for you!

School is closed for H and I for Columbus Day, so we’re enjoying a low key rainy day at home. V and I are currently playing play doh and making shapes.
I have a TON of clean laundry that needs to get folded and put away. Today really should be the day, but we’ll see.

My clinic got me in and got quick enough that I don't have to pay for parking. I love it when that happens.

tinyjoys, budders, Pizzaslut, robot, Nausea is the worst -- sorry you're all struggling right now. I had it bad with DD and it was awful. My nausea and heartburn have almost gone away which is of course making me spiral thinking something is wrong. Deep breaths. We're heading to the in laws today for Thanksgiving dinner -- I'm hoping DH can hang with DD for a bit before we go so I can get some work done. We were on vacation last week and now I have hours of paperwork for my business to catch up on. I used to work for a couple hours most nights after DD goes to bed, but between jet lag and fatigue I haven't been feeling that lately so now I'm behind.

Hola, everyone! I don't have a lot going on today. Work is kind of crazy, but I brought my gym bag for the first time since my BFP. I'm going to try and walk on the treadmill for a bit on my lunch break. I basically haven't moved in about 7 weeks.

I am off today and so thankful for the extra day. I haven’t even gotten out of bed yet. 😲 (but I’ve been awake since 8)

I just want to take a nap over lunch. A couple coworkers are being nosy bitches and it's giving me rage. Very Monday over here.

I'm irritated. I did 2 pre-screening tests last week. On Friday, I got notification that they received one. I still have not gotten notification they received the other one. I know they went to the same company but I'm sure there is a good reason that they other hasn't been processed yet. I'm just annoyed.

I had to bust out my hair straightener today for the first time in years. Damn hormones are making my normally thick curly hair straight. Of course, not straight enough to be cute. Just enough for the top layers to like stick out of my head like weird 70s style feathered hair. I remember his from my son but not as early and my hair was longer then, so it was weighted down into soft waves.

I'm pretending to be doing important work at my desk right now. So important. If people walk by during dismissal and I'm not actively typing I usually get roped into helping. No thanks. I'd rather read about my internet friends lives, duh.
Even reading the word nausea makes me feel ill. Pregnancy is weird.

I feel like my nausea had ceased a bit in the last few days, so naturally I'm worried...

We were closed today and only had training for a half day. I can home and have spent the last 2 hours in my bed watching tv. It's been glorious.
I'm debating getting up to start laundry or figure out dinner. Maybe.

After two years I'd probably give up, but I hope she gives it back to you soon.

DS had a fever today after having one on Saturday as well. He's also been awful about eating, so we have a doctors appointment at 6.
Good news is my second beta came back strong. First on Friday was 223, today's was 761!

Sympathies for everyone experiencing nausea and vomiting. I tried ginger supplements and ginger candies but that only made my puke spicy. I had an emesis bag next to me at all times. I ended up getting a prescription for Zofran and a bunch of free samples of Diclegis and those are the only things that have worked so far.

I want a pregnancy pillow because I didn't get one last time. I don't want a U shaped one though.
Suggestions?

I had PD at work today, which was pointless and now i am mentally fried.
Soo....there is that. I am still roughly only 4 weeks, 2 days; so I haven't called my OB yet. There is no way I could take time off of work this week, and I know they will want me there ASAP (like the next day) so I plan on calling Friday and seeing if I could get in on Tuesday.
Because of my early loss, we are trying not to let anyone know early but due to childcare it is becoming tricky on why a grandparent would have to watch our 6 year old.
