Hi all! I've been off the last couple of weeks. Between virtual school, a bathroom remodel, parents visiting and general nausea/fatigue, I just haven't had the time or energy to get on!
@AliJo hi!!! Yes, finally made it back to pregnant LOL. How are you doing?? I hope you're feeling okay! We have an appt in a couple weeks and assuming we hear a good heartbeat will announce on FB then
@OliviaNicole this is our third and we have 2 boys and literally everyone we've told has been like "do you want a girl?!" It doesn't bother me but I know some people can be really bothered by it. I'm like you, I'm just grateful to be pregnant again because I didn't think we would actually wind up going for a third (and last). I just tell people that it would be great to get to parent a girl (and my DH really wants one) but I think I'm an okay boy mom and another one added to the crew would be great too.
We found out with our oldest, waited for our second and I loved both of those ways. I would love to wait this time as well but my DH wants to know and I'm okay with that too
@Rebaby yay for a heartbeat!! amazing news!
@Stargirl1993 i have no idea with gender on the scan! Is there one gender over another that you're hoping for?
@Cath_Heather congrats on the great scan and good luck for your gender one!
@Danizzychar I have a lot of things that come and go and it can be so frustrating and cause anxiety. It's always so nice when we get beyond this stage!
@SilasLove yikes! that's a new one to me!! I hope it doesn't happen again for you!
@Beeka congrats and good luck at your scan this week! i hope you see a healthy bean!
@mme I had one with my oldest but didn't like it. With my second I used a memory foam regular pillow and it worked like a dream.Sorry I don't have better advice!

AFM, I'm 7 weeks and have been having a few hours of nausea a day consistently for the last week. It usually happens at night but has also been in the middle of the day. It hits me like a brick and basically drives me to the couch. I haven't thrown up yet but have had a lot of dry heaving. I had really bad GERD with my youngest and dealt with nonstop nausea in that pregnancy from 5 weeks to a week post delivery. So it's nothing new, I just don't remember it being this intense! Will be thankful when that part ends. Otherwise things are going great! I'm bloated and look pregnant already. I popped with my second by 10 weeks and I think I'm on track for that with this baby too (though I was a lot skinnier then LOL). Excited for our first appt in 2.5 weeks and praying for a healthy heartbeat.
Hope you all have a great rest of your weekend!
