    @iheartleopardprint: me! I have rlp when I get up too fast and in the middle of the night when I'm laying in certain positions I'm guessing but I can't figure out what those positions are to avoid it.

    @TrailRunner: lol at the strawberries. Those are my DS' favorite and he could probably eat half the container if I let him. He needs to have them everyday. For me - I almost ate Half a personal watermelon yesterday. lol

    @csross217: ibe been waking up to headaches in he middle of the night. Luckily by morning they disappear otherwise u don't know how I would go to work. I think mine are due to my sinus issues right now though. What worked for me last pregnancy with normal headaches was a Tylenol and an ice cold Coke.

    @iheartleopardprint: I've been having some sharp pains every so often if I sneeze or cough. Not quite round ligament pain.

    Hi all, just checking in. I was feeling all cocky that I was just battling fatigue--I'm used to that at this point, w my son-- but I've been feeling pretty icky the last few days. I didn't have MS last time, so this is new to me. I think a few of you have mentioned food just not being appetizing even though you feel like you should be hungry--yup! Well I had my first gag into the trashbin at work this morning. Ugh. Hope we're not travelling down this road and it was a fluke!

    Oh and we just found out that DS has Hand Foot and Mouth. Again. Oh and getting his two year molars at the same time. Gahhhh!

    I weighed myself today. Between the bloating and constant eating to avoid nausea, I've gained 7 pounds already! OMG - this is going to be a long 8 more months to go. I had gained about 5 pounds at this point in my 1st two pregnancies. I'll probably have GD again so at some point the eating will have to get better. I'm scared to see how much I'll gain!

    @iluvboba637: Same with chicken mcnugget cravings! I gave in this weekend... we were about to see a movie, but I felt the hunger pangs and made DH drive across the street to get a 20 piece box which I housed in the car before the movie. DH helped of course, but pretttty sure I ate like 16 of them

    I didn't realize I wasn't getting email alerts for this thread anymore. And I've been feeling so blah, I kept forgetting to get on myself.

    I had another scan last Friday. We saw the baby and the heartbeat. 95 bpm. I'm still a little hesitant because baby measured so much smaller than what I thought, although I was never positive of my O date. We go back for another scan next Monday. Feels like forever from now.

    I hope you ladies have all been doing well.

    @iheartleopardprint: No RLP for me - Yet! But I did have it with DD and the constant ache sure does get annoying after awhile. Hopefully is doesn't last too much longer for you.

    @iluvboba637: I hope you're headaches go away soon, I know how tough they can be.

    @HazelEyes: Yipes! You've got your plate full, hopefully the hand foot mouth goes away quickly and without too much trouble. I don't have any experience with it but it sounds brutal.

    @Mamasig: OMG I'm so scared to even get on the scale! The past few weeks have been survival eating to satisfy the nausea and my choices have been the opposite of healthy - but yummy! This pg I'm actually going to ask not to be weighed at all, I gained a lot last time and it really brought be down, I don't need the added pressure/stress of that.

    @YogiRunner: Nuggets sound so good right now... I had mashed potatoes and gravy with stuffing for breakfast

    @KrzyRiver: Nice to see the little babe, but sorry you're feeling blah. The first many weeks are so hard. Hope time flies between now and Monday!

    @tinyperson: Haha! Isn't it funny how just one mention of a certain food and its like gotta have it, right now!! We had a big, early Thanksgiving dinner on Sunday and I took a ton of leftovers! So good.

    @HazelEyes: Oh, so sorry to hear about your LO's Hand Foot Mouth! My daughter had it twice last year and I got it once. Hope it goes by quickly.

    @Autumnmama79: Sounds delicious. I've been thinking about mashed potatoes all day!

    @KrzyRiver: Glad to hear you had another appointment and that it went well.

    @atoz: They really do hit the spot! But as with all food cravings so far in this pg, now that I've had it once, I don't want it ever again. lol.

    Location: Upstate NY

    EDD: May 2, 2016

    How far along: 10w 3d

    First child? Nope, this is my second. My son is 4.5 years old.

    First doctor appointment: October 7, 2015. (Tomorrow!!!)

    Any symptoms so far? I have been nauseous pretty much non-stop. Pre-natal vitamins are the worst. All I want to do is sleep, and that's about all I do do. I wasn't sick at all with DS, so maybe it's a girl?!

    Who have you told? We told my parents when I was about 7 weeks because we were visiting and I wanted to tell them in person. DS had been dancing around one night and kissing my belly, without any idea that there is a baby inside, and hub got a couple of pictures. We printed one out and that was how we told my family. Two weeks later we told my in-laws. Now my boss and a couple of co-workers know. After my appointment tomorrow we'll tell more people.

    @Annabelle G: welcome! You have my real life name - well, just spelled differently

    clementine / 811 posts

    @Braveturtle: My DS has been doing the same thing! He has NO idea there is a baby in there, but keeps lifting my shirt and laying his head on it and kissing it! It is adorable and so strange at the same time.

    Talk to me about bleeding. I didn't experience it at all with my son but now I've been bleeding since last night. I know it's pretty common and I'm not bleeding a lot but there is definitely red when I wipe (sorry for TMI).

    I've already called my OB, just waiting on a call back!

    @petunia354: How far are you? I've had bleeding with all 3 of my pregnancies. As long as there isn't cramping or heavy bleeding you are most likely fine. I'd push for an appointment today so you can get an US.

  26. petunia354

    pomegranate / 3863 posts

    @BandDmommy: Thanks for the reassurance ! I'm 7w5d. I'm hoping they can fit me in today too! I know it's really common but it's still unsettling when you haven't experience it before, you know?

  27. My Only Sunshine

    persimmon / 1129 posts

    @petunia354: I had an ultrasound a couple days ago at 7w4d and could see the little gummi bear baby moving around in there, so they should be able to see something on an ultrasound. Hope they can get you in really soon!

  28. petunia354

    pomegranate / 3863 posts

    @My Only Sunshine: I'm going to my OB at 2:45, fingers crossed I see a healthy little gummy bear too

    @petunia354: good luck! I hope the bleeding is normal and everything looks great

  30. Mamasig

    pomegranate / 3565 posts

    @petunia354: I was told bleeding was normal as long as it wasn't excessive (like bleeding through a pad an hour) and no cramping. Hope all is well today!

    @petunia354: Good luck today! I hope the time flies between now and 2:45

    Well the doctor couldn't confirm it today but it looks like the size of the baby doesn't match my dates and I'm likely having a miscarriage. I had blood work done and I'm going back tomorrow for a more in depth ultrasound

  36. Autumnmama79
