The only thing I can stomach now is smoothies. I just found out you can go to Starbucks and buy one of their Naked juices and they can blend it with ice into a smoothie. Sooooo good.
 
Feronia- great idea!

The past two days I have been obsessed with eggs. I HATE eggs normally. But DH made eggs and french toast for me, and normally I'd only eat the french toast, but this time I couldn't stand it and was devouring the eggs. And today I discovered the Southwest Steak Burrito at Dunkin Donuts which has eggs in it and it was freakin delicious. It's like I'm not as interested in sweet things, more in salty and savory. But I feel fantastic today, not sick at all, so I'm pretty happy about that. Maybe I'll be lucky and won't be too sick. Aaaaand surely I just jinxed myself. Lol

zombiekitten, such a clear scan! looks fantastic!

and congratulations shells on the twins!

I'm going in for a doctor's appt and another scan tomorrow, almost 10 weeks. I don't know if I mentioned this on here but I was supposed to be on the mirena (IUD) when I found out I was pregnant. they were super worried and looked for it on my scan around 7 weeks but it doesn't seem to be in my uterus. we think it fell out somehow (maybe pulled it out with a tampon? it baffles me) but they're going to check again tomorrow. I sure won't be getting another mirena after this ordeal. the upside is I get to see the little one again. OH is coming and I'm nervous for his reaction. I'm sure it'll make it more real and I don't know if he will react well or if it'll scare him even more and make things worse.

is anyone grossed out by food they used to love? before this pregnancy I could have eaten sushi every day. OH suggested some (cooked) sushi when we walked by it at the grocery store the other day and I literally gagged and couldn't look at it. I can hardly think about it right now! that's the one thing that makes me want to puke and it makes me so angry haha

YES! I am eating a totally different diet, and for some strange reason, I keep craving The foods I liked when I was the little child. Weird! I am literally eating things that I haven't touched for 10-20 years!
 
I'm grossed out by anything with a strong smell, basically! Well I'm grossed out by food, but I can at least force myself to eat bland things.
 
My eating is so off -- many things I used t love, I cannot handle. Others I want to eat nonstop and they're not good for me -- French fries! LOL.

:brat:

Lol, I went out and bought teddy grahams the other day. I wasn't even sure if they still made them.

I can't eat a bag of any type of chips I hate it so much, can't even enjoy doritos. Peanut butter and jelly is another thing that I can't seem to stand especially jelly (jam). And I also don't like pancakes as much anymore , used to be my favorite.
 
Such beautiful scans!!! Looking forward to everyone's coming up! :)

My dr estimated my due date to be feb 21 based off the first day of my last period, but since I ovulated so much later I know I am due more around feb. 25. I told her but she said she will just get a better fides at my scan. I am sticking with my date. I think I'm right. :)

So far I'm craving nothing and pretty much everything doesn't sound good. I do like chicken though. I keep having waves of nausea. Especially when I'm super thirsty.
 
OH and i are going to shop around for a new bed tonight in about an hour!
im so excited since getting pregnant i just can NOT get comfortable in our old bed!
has anyone experienced that?
 
definitely, I can't sleep as well in general. right now we're sleeping on a futon haha, since we just moved here and wanted to save for a nice bed, so that's probably not helping. but I wake up a lot at night and can't sleep in like I used to. all around I feel tired most of the day, get exhausted much easier and I'm usually ready for bed at like 8pm!
 
I would get a body pillow or pregnancy pillow to help. I does wonders for support.
 
I am not sleeping well at the moment but I think that's because I'm jetlagged!
 
I sleep pretty darn well still. It is randomly t-storming here, so I have some natural white noise going on right now! If I were you gals, I'd get a nice white noise app and a super comfy pregnancy pillow. Then again, I sleep separately from hubby, so he doesn't care if I have all these things lol. (We're madly in love but I can't stand sleeping with his noisy self... lol!!) I'm sure I wouldn't be able to sleep if I was in the room with him, and I really REALLY value my sleep. It is one of my main concerns of having a baby: losing sleep. I'm a horrible, horrible human being when I do not sleep. My whole family will hate the Monster Megan/Mommy if she does not get at least 8 hours per night! Call me crazy but I'm determined, after the first like 6 months, that I'll be back to my 8-10 hours per night plus midday nap. No one, no baby, can stop me! Unless my hormones magically change me, but I've been this way my entire life. I even stayed in my mom's womb an extra month (no joke), took 2.5 days to come out, and then slept so much my mom thought something was wrong with me as a baby. LOL!
 
Megan both Oh and I are 10 month babies too and guess what, both struggle if we don't get enough sleep :)
 
Good luck with getting that sleep girls. My ds slept well for a baby and I got the hours in but they were broken. And the only way he would nap was nursing which I had to learn laying down so we could Co nap.
Which brings me to another point, I'm pretty sure that i read memory foam is not a safe mattress for a baby, so even if you aren't planning to co sleep I wouldn't risk buying one incase you do even if it's one off.
I'm pretty prepared to be knackered for a long while since ds doesn't nap anymore, it would have been easier in that sense to have had a much closer age gap.
Xx
 
Bridget i second what RasberryK said about the Memory foam not being suitable for baby, i find that by folding a duvet in half and putting it under the sheet on my side of the bed it creates the softness i need when pregnant to allow me to sleep that and a huge mound of pillows surrounding me
 
I'm going to order my dream genni pillow this week as I'm getting more uncomfortable xx
 
I am struggling with sleep right now. It takes me hours to fall asleep. Then I sleep a few hours and am up again as the sun is rising. I wake anywhere between 5-6.

It's exhausting. I am really struggling to not be crabby with my daughter as a result. She only just started sleeping through the night at age 2, so I was just getting used to good sleep at night and now I'm back to crap! LOL. Never can win, right? ;)
