Ticker Change Thread

[cateyes]

Since our group is still small, I don't think we need to do this "daily" but maybe do one once a week and you can answer on the "day your ticker changes". It is fun to see sizes and what is going on with everyone! This way we can stay in the loop with what is going on with who!!!! I am thinking it should start from now on on Sundays because that is the beginning of the week to me but what say you-start Sundays or Mondays?

Any new symptoms or changes? Maybe, maybe some gagging that seems to be due to a heightened sense of smell. Nothing much otherwise.


Rants/Raves/Questions? I had a wedding this weekend and worked hard to hide that I was not drinking, especially since it was an open bar and like everyone was drinking.


GTKY: Do you plan to go team green the whole way or find out the gender(s)? H wants to go team green, I am all about finding out so I need to convince him

Happy Wednesday to those of us whose tickers change today!

How far along are you? 7 weeks!

How big is baby? Squish is the size of a dice today. Or a small raspberry.

Upcoming appointments this week? Monday the 17th! I'm really excited for it. If all goes well, I graduate from the RE!

Any new symptoms or changes? Nope, not a lot going on symptoms wise. Just peeing a lot but I'm also drinking more water so... you know.

Rants/Raves/Questions? Not really. Just trying to narrow down the ol MW vs OB debate and then pick one.

GTKY: While I think being team green would be fun, we will be finding out the sex because MH feels strongly about knowing ahead of time.

How big is baby? Blueberry (although by all the stretching and bloating I've been happening he/she feels much bigger ! Ha!)

Upcoming appointments this week? Next Tuesday the 18th

Any new symptoms or changes? Finally getting real food cravings (before I just wanted pickles), other than that pretty much the same

Rants/Raves/Questions? Anyone have any great distractions for when my PGAL brain gets the best of me . I have circle and bloom , TV and movies, and work distracting me right now


Do you plan to go team green the whole way or find out the gender(s)? Team green

How big is baby? peppercorn

Upcoming appointments this week? Had betas Tuesday and today and they're progressing as expected. First ultrasound next Wednesday

Any new symptoms or changes? Some nausea after I eat breakfast but it goes away and the rest of the day is fine *knock on wood*

Rants/Raves/Questions? Just anxious for the ultrasound next week

GTKY: Do you plan to go team green the whole way or find out the gender(s)? Pretty sure we plan to find out. I could be persuaded either way but I think DH wants to find out so we will.

[teachermomtobe]

ihatepizza, I have read some of the mantras on the Pregnant after IF board and also try to remind myself there is nothing I can do at all. I am being present in this moment and not letting my worry take away my joy. Also, stay away from Google lol

[ihatepizza]

teachermomtobe I love the mantras, I have them memorized. I especially like the one about symptoms. I'm super bad for google, I've been googling everything and need to stop. Luckily I've officially smashed my phone to pieces so no internet at work until I get a new one

[teachermomtobe]

ihatepizza, I'm bad for googling too and try to walk away when I find myself spiraling. Ugh that sucks about your phone!

[Run20K]

How far along are you? 6 weeks tomorrow

How big is baby? The size of a pea

Upcoming appointments this week? Ultrasound on 10/20 (so nervous)

Any new symptoms or changes? Nothing new. Frequent urination, exhaustion, sore chest, bloated. However, the symptoms come and go, which makes me nervous.

Rants/Raves/Questions? I just want to feel pregnant 24/7. Feeling normal scares me.

GTKY: Do you plan to go team green the whole way or find out the gender(s)? If the ultrasound goes well, we will find out next week! Our embryos went through CCS testing, so the gender(s?) are already known. My RE won't disclose until after the first ultrasound though. So we're really ready to get to next week.

How big is baby? BB pellet

Upcoming appointments this week? First sono in one week

Rants/Raves/Questions? Just really anxious for the sono next week.

GTKY: Do you plan to go team green the whole way or find out the gender(s)? Definitely finding out the gender.

[leloyd]

How far along are you? 7 weeks

How big is baby? small raspberry

Upcoming appointments this week? My OB squeezed me in for an u/s today to put my PGAL mind at ease

Any new symptoms or changes? I have been down with a head cold and then a stomach bug all week so I don't know what symptoms are due to pregnancy and what symptoms are due to being sick

Rants/Raves/Questions? I am so ready to put the first trimester behind me.

GTKY: Do you plan to go team green the whole way or find out the gender(s)? My husband and I are inclined to go Team Green this time, although we did find out last time

[pinecone21]

How far along are you? 5 weeks

How big is baby? A lavender bud

Upcoming appointments this week? Nope, not until November

Any new symptoms or changes? Sore boobs, frequent peeing, crazy dreams. I had my first bit of nausea when I woke up this morning: "Hmm, I don't feel so good. I wonder why. Oh yeah, I'm pregnant."

Rants/Raves/Questions? I think I figured out the reason for all the spotting. It only happens if I push really hard when I go to the bathroom. Since having DD 2.5 years ago, I've had trouble completely emptying my bladder, so I push really hard at the end to get all the pee out. Since I've stopped doing that, no more spotting. I forgot once yesterday, and I spotted again. I hope my baby is ok!

GTKY: Do you plan to go team green the whole way or find out the gender? We will find out at the anatomy scan. I need to know if I need to buy all new clothes or if I can reuse DD's.

I missed my day yesterday I'm 6w1d.

Big as a chocolate chip.

No upcoming apps.

Nausea and super smelling ability are the big new symptoms.

It has been a long time since I've been hungry and disgusted at the same time. Oh the joys.

I'm team find out.
