Nova i hope second tri brings you some relief

Omg treeroot your retort to hubby hahhahahahahah
Mine always comments on me looking miserable; i hate bringing up my pregnancy (drives me batty IRL when people bring up their pregnancy at any opportunity) but i've had to remind him almost daily that i'm overall feeling crappy because of it. Finally had my first headache today too. Fortunately it's mior for me. Annoying but I get migraines so i'll take this any day over a migraine!

One of these days i'm going to have to pull the i'm-feeling-too-crappy-to-deal-with-kids card and play that so i can just rest up one evening. Kick my feet up and veg out.

Anyway got the doppler out again this evening to try and find hb to show hubs. Got it very faintly and hubby heard it too, but when i tried to get the doppler in a better position to listen i lost the hb all together -.- oh well, at least we got a little of it. Still haven't been able to time it though.

Glad I’m not the only one! I feel so icky today, I’m starving and nauseous and I just want him to come home so I can hermit away in the bedroom while he takes over with the kiddo. I feel so lazy...and yet there’s a reason, lol. I just wish I could feel good for one day so I can get some stuff done- like cleaning. Seriously. Our home is a MESS.

Amen to this!!! My house is awful! But we just don't have the time and I don't have the energy to tackle it.

 

[mwel8819]

I got the doppler out last night and found a hr of 170 and then it started to drop and fade away...so I'm sure the little peanut is just moving around in there but I wish he/she would stay still for just a sec so we could hear it. Hubby was hanging around and it makes me nervous bc this is what he does for a living...ultrasounds. So of course, he knows better than me.

I feel like I have days of no nausea and some days of 24/7 nausea...anyone else? Same with food aversions. I'm eating a bagel and cream cheese right now hoping I don't get sick.

My hubby is getting all whiny about sex. It is the most unattractive thing I can think of...I can't help that I'm not feeling like it! We were eating a brownie with icecream yesterday for dessert and I said "I hope this doesn't have nuts" and he said, "Just like our bedroom, this brownie doesn't have nuts"......sigh! Get over it! I have one of those pocket vaginas...I'm going to let him have at it. haha!!!

 

[gigglebox]

LMAO!!! Omg please hand it to him next time hahahahha! Dare i ask why you have the pocket V and not him?

Coukd you be coaxed into sexy times? Maybe he just needs to give you a foot massage, like a really good one, then work his way up or mom foreplay: clean the house, make dinner, put the kiddos to bed, tell you you're beautiful, then the foot rub

Yuo definitely have the come & go sickness which is fine by me! Beats the 24 hour nausea like last pregnancy. I would have to get up in the middle of the night for weeks and go to the fridge to take swigs of heavy cream to settle my stomach. It was kind of like a natural pepto bismol lol.

And yes, the damn cravings! I'll be absolutely SET on something, eat it once, then have an aversion to it as soon as i'm done eating it. It's happened with nachos, artichokes, dang it there was once recently I can't remember...oh well.

The only thing i seem to be consistently craving right now is sushi.

 

[mwel8819]

I used to sell toys. If you knew me in real life you would be like "What?! You are kidding!" I've always been a good girl and super conservative. hahaha! Everywhere but the bedroom, I guess.

I don't even think I could be coaxed. Maybe if he cleaned the house...maybe...actually I would make a real effort if this happened. ha!

Our 3 year old sleeps with us too so that is a reason too and he doesn't come to bed until 1 or 2 and I'm out by that time.

Heavy cream just does not sound appealing. I need to buy me a plug in of lemon cleaner.

Ohh the aversions suck! And I would be pissed if I was craving something and then hated it after eating it. Grrr.

I usually love sushi! Not really wanting fish right now though. I wish I could just find one thing. Last pregnancy I could always eat fruit. Not this time.

 

[gigglebox]

Isn't it frustrating?! I've delt with cravings and aversions but this whole flip flopping between cravings is new and annoying. I was on a hamburger kick but that went away, too (probably for the best though lol)--although i can still eat them, just not craving them and hitting the drive through at 9am to eat one for breakfast yes i did this twice in a week and had it a third time for lunch lmao

Of course now that i'm thinking about them i want one...

 

[gigglebox]

Also i've been to one of those parties (and the stores a time or several) and i have to say most thing don't surprise me but i did see a pocket V that was blue and shaped like a shark so you're essentially deep throating a shark that just struck me as odd lol -- maybe it was supposed to look discrete?

 

[mwel8819]

Hahaha! I think the one I have is just blue jelly if I remember correctly. Hamburgers for breakfast...I can't even imagine. I have such a hard time finding things I can eat for breakfast. Hamburgers NEVER sound good to me honestly. Last night we went to Logan's Roadhouse and I was craving their grilled chicken with peppercorn dressing on a bed of rice...yummm or so I thought. Got it and there was no dressing and no rice and the chicken was super hard and dry. I sent that crap back. Got me a free dessert. I NEVER do that. lol! They brought out this amazing brownie with 3 scoops of icecream and ya'll...it was AMAZING!!!!

 

[MissMarpleFan]

My cravings are different every day! I still haven't decided what's for lunch today. This will be the highlight of my day as dinner will be the very healthy chicken-vegetable pasta salad I made last night. DH is lucky I cooked at all.

Aversions: meat cooked by me (??), eggs in any form

Cravings: various fast food sandwiches, loaded cheese fries, cottage cheese w/ carrot sticks, cheese, cheese, cheese, sometimes fruit

I think my first trimester weight loss will be coming to an end this week.

I can go from eating everything in the house to nothing in a sec flat. Seriously.

I wish I had your problem right now. ha! Right now I'm super nauseated and want to go home.

I'm sorry, darling. I'd probably still feel that way without my diclegis rx, but it makes me so drowsy I'm having trouble getting work done.

 

[mwel8819]

I just had an icee and omg....HEAVEN until my heart starts jumping out of my chest...anyone else have that issue?

 

[gigglebox]

Yup, Ben & Jerry's ice cream (half baked if you wanted to know) makes my heart race every time. I don't generally eat that much sugar in one sitting so makes sense.

Yup was pretty excited i hadn't gained weight then i gained like 2 lbs in a week lol, possibly 3

Keep losting cravings ladies, i need ideas! I wish i had a sushi place closer than 20 minutes probably the best for my wallet though

 

[mwel8819]

So why is sugar affecting us so much? I'm glad I'm not the only one. I remember last pregnancy this happened and I was sure I would fail my sugar test. Before I was pregnant I would have a mountain dew and rice krispy treat for breakfast.

 

[bbbbbbb811]

Sugary stuff is leaving such a disgusting taste in my mouth, and normally I eat probably too much sugar, so it isn't a bad thing
Im jealous of all you ladies hearing heartbeats on the Doppler, I used to have one but lost it but agree sometimes it can be more of a worry if you cant find it!
I'm glad everyone is still doing well, I hope all the sickness and tiredness wears off as everyone approaches the end of the first trimester.
My booking in appointment tomorrow with the midwife, I'm kind of nervous because I went to the doctors and told them I was pregnant yesterday and she was very judgemental. Insinuating that I shouldn't be happy, and I must be struggling because this is my 4th baby. I left crying, she asked some unprofessional questions, I thought. So I hope the midwife is better.

That's horrible! I don't know how your medical system works over there (I'm in Texas) but can you change doctors? That is beyond rude.

I changed pharmacies because the pharmacist where I used to fill my lovenox injection prescription was also incredibly rude. At first he didn't believe the reason I was prescribed these blood thinners (which are pretty commonly used in pregnancy), then he tried to scare me into not doing my shot the first night because he didn't think the doctor's office gave me proper instructions, then when I lost that pregnancy and went to fill my prescription on my next pregnancy, he said "Oh, it didn't work, eh?" People never cease to amaze me. I wish I'd had good comebacks for him any of the times but I was always too shocked.

 

[mwel8819]

Wow, ladies...I'm so sorry for both of you! I would be sooo pissed at both of these idiots. I would definitely switch if she was making you feel bad about being pregnant. That is just ridiculous! I am sure the midwife will be much more sensitive with your feelings. Did it have to do with age? Not that it is any reason but I'm just trying to figure out why in the world she thought that was her business to treat you that way.

 

[NovaStar]

I can’t wait for cravings! I just have aversions to everything. Literally everything. Haha! Sugar is definitely a huge aversion for me, and beef, and cheese, and basically anything that has a taste.

Brought the hubs and kiddo to the doctor appointment today and we all got to see the baby bounce around and wave his/her arm around. It was awesome. I’m 11 weeks and 2 days and he baby looks like an actual human being. Doc said everything looks perfect. 😭 so happy.

 

[W8tingforbaby]

We have our next appointment on Friday (these last 4 weeks went so slow waiting to go back and see our peanut lol) my daughter wants to come and see the baby with us but I need to see all is still ok before I bring her along. There is no reason it wouldn’t be but after the mc I am just more nervous this time. I will be 10 weeks tomorrow which blows my mind lol feels like I just found out I was pregnant. Can’t wait to see him/her

 

[bbbbbbb811]

That's awful missmarplefan. I'm glad you could change pharmacists, I'm completely the same with wishing I had good comebacks. I always sit there and say nothing, because I'm taken aback then later think.. I wish I said that back.
Here you have GP surgeries, with several doctors in. I only registered that day as I moved areas, but my doctor wasn't in that day so I'm future I'll be seeing him when available(and requesting not to see her if he isnt).
Mwel, I can imagine it is to do with age of myself as I am young to be having my fourth and the age of my children(youngests only 3&1).
Exciting Novastar, brilliant everything look good and I bet you LO loved seeing baby on the screen.
W8ting, I have the same worry after my miscarriage last time. Are you about to bring home pictures of the scan to show your daughter? Let us know how it goes!
