Randoms week of 11/6

[lily]

[Speedy]

I had to call the OB clinic to ask about my dating ultrasound. Just as the receptionist picked up, a piece of egg decided to go down the wrong way. So I was trying to get my question out while coughing in this poor ladies ear. I'm mortified.

I’m sitting in the waiting room for my MW visit. And I should get the NIPT blood draw too. Yay!

[budders]

I can’t believe it’s Monday again. This weekend barely existed. Grateful to have this Friday off for Veteran’s day, but I have an observation and a high intensity CSE meeting in the next few days, so this is a stressful week.

And of course, I started weaning off of my Diclegis since I’m in second tri and feeling better. BIG mistake. I was so sick all weekend, despite a steady stream of Zofran.

[robot]

I had the exact same scary experience that I had with DD where they couldn’t find the hb on Doppler at this point. The second they stuck the dildo cam in the baby was wiggling all over the place. Hb in the 160s. We even got a wave. Whew.

Left work cause I threw up. Nurse called me in some phenergan. Waiting on dr approval for zofran. Looking forward to a few hours of uninterrupted sleep.

I'm glad you got a wave!

Today is super crazy at work. My toddler was crazy all weekend, and into this morning. I really miss my husband. Basically I'm full of complaints and SO hungry.

Oh no Phenergan has helped the worst peaks for me and it does knock me out.

The time change is killing me. This is the slowest morning ever.

My feet are SO hot right now. But I can't exactly teach in socks.

budders, a co-worker asked if I was planning to try stopping Zofran soon and I laughed hard. Nope. I'm going to give it at least a couple more weeks because with O I was sick past 20 weeks. Don't want to risk it.

I was nauseated with V the whole pregnancy, but by this point I was down to just Zofran. I really thought I could do without the Diclegis, but not yet apparently.

I am finally feeling better now that I am out of first tri and my never-ending cold is gone. I did have a scare last week when I realized I probably should've asked my OB before using Afrin, plus I accidentally used like 3 times the recommended dose because I thought I was using saline but it was just generic Afrin. Oops. My OB has convinced me that all is fine, just to stick to sudafed or mucinex in the future. I have an appointment next week so I'm excited to hear the HB again. Then after that I schedule by anatomy scan. HOW IS THAT ONLY 5.5 WEEKS AWAY?!

[Speedy]

Ugh, today was the busiest day I've had at this new job. We had a new admittance and I had to help her get settled in which put off my cleaning. And then one of the ladies in my section decided that she had to go to the hospital right before shift change so I had to help with that. I'm so glad to be home now and laying in bed!

[fatpony]

My MS appears to be coming back with a vengeance. I was pretty good the last week or so, then yesterday morning, BAM. I've felt nauseated all day today. Plus just sore - my back and hips.

This week already sucks.

[charliefox]

I've been so crampy and had some slight spotting. Trying not to freak out, I'll just see what happens in the next few days before I call my MW but we leave for the UK on Saturday. Ugggghhhh.

[lovealwaysalison]

charliefox FX that it's just annoying spotting and everything is ok!

[robot]

I just dozed on the couch while my child trashed all her toys for 45 mins. Urgh. MOTY.

[adeline]

robot 😂 dildocam. That’s gold. They always need to use that on me too. Somehow the jelly bean’s heartbeat hides from the wand on my belly until we’ll into 2nd tri.

I have my nuchal scan today at lunch. $20 they do it with the dildo.

Can’t wait to be out and proud after the scan is ok! Excuse me sir. Yes you, perfect stranger? I’m pregnant!!! With another girl!!!

These kids are tricky! DD hid behind my belly button for all of her anatomy scan. I had to go in a second time. Brat.

Wish I could claim I created calling it the dildocam but that came from TTGP back on TB. It’s still the perfect description. I’ve had more of those than I’d like to remember. So fun.

Yup! Dildocam has been floating around for forever XD I remember getting quite the laugh from my BFF when I first called it that

[sammichcat]

charliefox, FX it's nothing!

[adeline]

Ok so the secret is out and it feels so gooood! Day off work tomorrow then I’ll be in my comfy stretch clothes and living the life of having the belly out. Can’t wait.

Scan was good, heartbeat and all anatomy things are lovely so hurray!!

[numbears]

I said I wasn't telling DS until right before the baby is born, but after I got the NIPT results I told him he was going to have a baby brother.

His response: I want a baby sister.

Lol. But by the time I left to go to work he was chattering about having a baby brother.

[numbears]

Sympathies to everyone still experiencing nausea and vomiting.

I just started back on my zofran and diclegis.

[adeline]

charliefox Thinking of you x

[numbears]

charliefox I hope you get some answers and everything's okay.

[armpants]

Fx it's stopped charliefox. Spotting is always disconcerting.

[armpants]

This nausea can FRO. I've already told H dinner plans have to change. Just the thought of shrimp is making me sick. I had to skip a podcast earlier because they were taking about autopsies and I couldn't deal.

Yuck. I hope it passes quickly for you.
