Oh wow, you make weighted blankets too! How much do you charge? I was trying to make one for DS3, but my stupid sewing machine broke a month or so ago and I am just too dang tired to see if I can fix it or get another one. That is soo cool. I pray you are feeling better and can open your etsy shops back up.

Ok and what are weighted blankets? As you can tell I'm about as 'crafty' as a plank of wood 😂

Sky I'll send you a link to my facebook business page there's more on there right now than Etsy.
Pbn Etsy is like eBay for handmade items.
Shan the price is based on size I make them custom to the size of child/adult they're being made for.

For a 4lb lap blanket. Just curious. :)

And Pbn3 - weighted blankets are just as they sound. They have weight pellets (like in bean bags) that help the person under it feel *hugged*. It is normally used for Autistic children or people with sensory issues. My DS3 is a sensory seeker meaning he craves touch. He is always on a lap or right next to someone. I am hoping a lap blanket will help him in school when he will not get as much touch as he does at home.

Hmmmm wonder how much it'd cost to get an adult one shipped to Australia 😂😂 I think I have a different idea of what winter is though. 15 degrees celcius and I'm like 'it's freezing!!!' 😂

So DH is really excited! Like he keeps hugging me and telling me he's very excited. That's the good news. But, I don't feel anything?? I know I'm *just* pregnant, but last pregnancy I was nauseous the minute I peed on a stick. Anyone with multiple kids feel like every pregnancy is different? My second was just much worse than my first so I was excepting this one to be bad. AND I did have a chemical before my second so that's obviously looming in my head [emoji85]

Kat- this pregnancy started out as twins [emoji15], and I didn't feel pregnant at all until 6w3d! Then BAM! Super sick- I'm talking ALL. DAY. SICK. Puking at least once, eating didn't help, carbs didn't help, protein made me puke 7 times in one day, and meds didn't help [emoji26]!! It lasted until week 17, and I still feel nauseous at least once per day!

Enjoy these moments! It will come! Brace yourself and for the love of all that is good in the world- eat lots while you can! I lost 11lbs and didn't start to gain weight until week 18! I only have gained 11lbs now despite looking HUGE, haha!

Great to hear from you artisam!! Sounds like you've had an absolute dreadful time, I'm so sorry you ms was so severe! I couldn't imagine being hospitalized with it. So happy you seem to be coming out the other end of it! So when is your 12 week scan??!!!! Will you be trying to get a nub shot? How exciting!!!!

Srg I've been super (worryingly) lucky. I get mild nausea late at night and early morning but that's it..... I certainly don't want to feel super sick like these poor ladies in here but it would be somewhat comforting to have nausea more often...

I had an early scan at the hospital, 10 weeks by my calculations but they said I was 11+5 (I disagree as I know when my one attempt was to the minute!) so I have two blurry scans.

When I'm up to it I'll post pics for opinions! Scheduled 12 week scan is next Friday so hoping for more.

My vomiting was hitting over 100 episodes a day, so I've needed an IV. after a range of meds I seem to be on one that is now working (for now, everything is crossed!). Fx for anyone wth nausea/vomiting it's the worst x

Omg artisam!!! That is awful how sick you've been!!!! And there's only one? There's not another 3 hiding in there somewhere??!!

11+5 is too early for nub guessing but you may get some in any case :) (cant believe you're measuring nearly 2 weeks ahead already!! Were you charting or using opks? Generally conception can take up to 3 days after pos opk (depending when the egg released) so if you dtd at pos opk then you'd still be measuring a little over a week ahead! Wow!

Cant wait to see 12w scan pics!!

That's strange. I hope it's just gas because I don't wanna get too much fat. But I wanna eat all time without getting fatty ;)

Sky. I am not fasting because I am feeling all time hungry. I just wanna eat some sour or salty. Of I don't, Ms kills me. Sorry you are not feeling good. I hope it LL be okay asap.

Kat. Welcome here. And congratulations for BFP and also you are blue team :).

Pbn you are lucky though, not getting much Ms. That's great.

How will I fit 3 in my car? The boys each have a bedroom & then a playroom...hmm, will we move the boys into the same room? Then there's the cost of 3 in daycare...$$ adds up. These are the best types of problems to have...couldn't be more excited to figure it all out as we go!

Ash - none of yours have ever room shared? I'm surprised! Mine have off and on. So you'll get the gender blood test Friday and results the following week? I guess that makes you 1st to find out gender?

Lola/Sky - will y'all find out gender? Can you find out early or will it be at 20 weeks.

I'm thinking I'll be able to find out early since I'm 35, but don't think I will until 20 week ultrasound. I asked DH if we could wait until birth, he said no [emoji23] I started feeling more pregnant after my last post. I really hope I don't have terrible ms though!! I feel for all y'all that do.

I didn't have this type of MS that lasted all day or that wasn't made better by eating. I still can't eat more than 1800-1900 calories per day without feeling like I'm going to puke!

It was more that it was completely different from my boys. Plus, I don't have a ravenous appetite like I did with them. I would literally watch the clock for my next meal/snack with them, haha!

I have two bedrooms in the basement right now the older two share one and we have the other a play room but they're scardy cats and don't want to split down there yet [emoji23] we have enough space to add one more bedroom with an escape window but we will still have to have a couple sharing until we do away with the play room or until they're not scared to stay in their own room downstairs lol.
I have little babies also! But always go into labor early! I'm thinking a New Years baby would be my goal if I can hold him/her in until then. Funny thing my mil knows about us having another and I think she is more anxious to tell ppl than we are [emoji177] she was saying tonight "she will either be a princess or mean as dirt to keep up with all these boys" glad she's referring to baby as she hehe

Lola - We always get the genetic testing done so if the gender part is offered for free since I'm [emoji1411] then we'll probably get it. I'm dying to know, but scared to be disappointed [emoji51] Part of me is like give me the longest time possible to think this is a boy.

Sky - I'm waiting to call until Wednesday/Thursday to make my appointment. Just want to be a little further along before I call and know it's not a chemical. However, my lines are getting darker and I'm feeling more pregnant. But, I'm thinking they'll see me the week of the 26th.

Ash - I'm not sure what we'll do room wise either. We have 4 bedrooms, so right now they have separate (really cute [emoji7]) bedrooms and the 4th is a guest room. Our guest room is hardly used, more so used by my or DH if someone is sick or if he's snoring too loud. I'm thinking we'll make it the nursery/guest room and then make 2 of the 3 share down the road depending on gender and who sleeps best. My oldest (6) is super scared and sleeps in the floor in a sleeping bag most nights. We are going to try to work on that soon [emoji51]

I'm dying to tell my Sis and Mom, but trying to hold out!

Kat-I know exactly what you mean!! I would love to believe this is a girl, but I think the longer I believe, the more disappointed I'll be...as sad as that sounds...so I need to know now!!! I also want to know gender as soon as possible so that when I share the news with fam, I'll have some control when I tell them. I'm aiming to have my 1st appt on July 3 if they're open that day. I'd love to tell fam on July 4th, BUT I won't know gender then ugh, so I think I'll keep the secret going longer...Since you have a guest room, sounds like you have the perfect space! You could leave the bed in there with the crib & find a comforter/duvet that matches whichever theme you go with. It'll be a boy theme of course [emoji170][emoji12] My boy's rooms are so cute that I hate to change them ugh...one has a car theme & one has a nautical theme. DS1 sleeps in a queen bed, so we make that the guest room when we have visitors & he sleeps with us. So get this, when we first moved here, DS2's room was pink....I thought ohhhh maybe this could be baby #3's pink room, BUT I knew if I didn't paint it a neutral color immediately, I'd have another boy lol.

Yes my appointment is in 5 days eeekkk.... I will get the scan at my appointment I'm so excited! Baby should look like a cute little gummy bear by then[emoji4] my back is getting better slowly but I can move around much better today thankfully
Kat ds3 has a seizure last year on Memorial Day and we didn't want to leave him alone so we bought another twin bed and pushed it up against ours and made him sleep in our room for about 7 months to ensure no more and we could have peace of mind. But luckily he is back in his room he's a smart little one though and knows when his dad is out of town he can sneak in bed with me lol.
Lola that's a super cute pink color that was in there I like it! We have a nautical room for our baby Jonah and I love it. I'm also on the fence on when to tell everyone if I wait for the gender results that could be 12 weeks so another whole 4 weeks of a secret and I don't want to keep it that long because I want to enjoy this pregnancy but then again I do want to keep it so I have control of the situation I guess I'll decide Friday what I want to do. If it's twins then I'm sure I won't wait but if single I'll be undecided

Ash-that's exactly what I was thinking! If it's by some miracle twins, there would be no way I could hold that in! For now, praying it's a healthy bean...then will be ecstatic if it's a girl. I thought the pink was really cute, but I knew I had to paint it as a part of the process lol. A while ago, I told my mom that I wanted a 3rd & that I wouldn't tell anyone until I knew gender. She said "even me." I tell her pretty much everything. I said "well as long as you don't say "you know it could be a boy." She agreed so I told her recently when I found out. She seemed excited, but I could feel that "you know it could be a boy" vibe even though she didn't say it haha...maybe it's just in my head. So *WHEN*(thinking positive as a part of the process lol) I hear girl, I think that would have a more positive effect when telling family

Could everyone give a recap on how many weeks they are and if they are showing? Am just trying to catch up [emoji7]

I've lost about 6lbs in the last week so no maternity clothes yet but not sure how much I can hide it when I go back to work!

Pbn I was using opks only I didn't realise dates could change that much (like nearly 2 wks) at a scan, especially if you know the date you dtd!?

Ash/Lola - WAIT! Y'all are considering not even announcing you are pregnant until you know if it's a boy or girl?? How far along would you be? I'm impressed. I'm trying to wait until scan/8 weeks to tell my family and then 12 for the world (including work). But, I might tell my boss after the scan at 8 weeks bc she has me on that trip to Miami in November which I'm scared to go on. And just ask her to keep quiet until I'm comfortable. I'm really dying to tell people now though, yes I aware it's to soon, so we'll see if I last!

Artisam I will be 8 weeks tomorrow. And I do have a food baby! I've gained 7lbs but not showing.
Kat we have told our parents and that's all I have planned to wait until I find out gender but I'm getting impatient so we will see what my scan looks like Friday and decide then if we want to tell. I think it makes it easier not telling anyone since I have all you to spill it to [emoji23]. But I have been on the loosing end with weight for a while and running a lot but since pregnancy I've not been running as much and have gained so it's only a matter of time before anyone notices. I don't think I will get the results from the gender test until 11/12 weeks so I'm sure I'll be showing by then since this is my 5th pregnancy. I'm just going to play it by ear and see what happens! I honestly hate to say this but I do feel like this one is a girl for some reason. I'm scared to feel this way (and won't tell anyone else but y'all and dh because I don't want anyone to think I'll be upset if it's a boy. It scared the day lights out of me to think I can potentially have a girl since I have no idea how to care for one....maybe that's y I feel this is a girl. Who knows I just know I wanted to find out the gender like yesterday

Ash!! Don't get down on weight. I would expect you to be showing, it's your fifth child. I told you on my 2nd pregnancy I gained 15 by week 15 [emoji51] Anyways, I think your having a girl and I'll give you any advice you want [emoji7] I however think I might be having a boy, BUT it's just bc I did stuff so different this time. For full disclosure I thought both my girls were boys too so I'm always wrong [emoji23] My first the heart rate was so low and everyone just assumed so I did too. With my second I was so much sicker and my Sis was sicker with her son than daughter so I just assumed boy. Again, always wrong! I'll probably cave and try to find out asap. It would be cool to know around 12 weeks and announce all together. I gotta ways to go until then [emoji23]

Artisam-I'm only 4 weeks...brand new BFP here :)
Kat-I'm also going to see how it goes, but my plan is to wait until I know gender...which may be 10/11/12 weeks. Luckily I'm out for the summer for my job so I can go to all of my appts & no one will know or see my bump until we go back in August! It may be more of a challenge to keep it under wraps with my fam. My fam adores my boys, but feels like I already have my hands full & don't need anymore. Then there was that random comment from my brother "you know you can't pick the gender of your baby." I haven't talked to him about swaying or really anyone that we're ttc...they just often ask if we want more. I feel like my family will just laugh at me if it's another boy...so I really want to know to avoid the comments while waiting to hear!! And yes-ash & I are the crazies who secretly would love twins lol 🤣🤣, so we'll quit talking so we don't jinx anyone lol[emoji854][emoji854](although it would be awesome & I'd be super jealous lol).

I was thinking Wednesday or Thursday but.... mine will see me between 6-8 weeks but I like to go closer to 8 so I don't freak out if no heartbeat yet. So I'm hoping to go week of June 26th.

Kat-for my previous pregnancies at the same OB office, they wouldn't see me until 8 weeks when they're able to confirm a viable pregnancy. I've already been thinking about when I should call. I had the cervical U/S scheduled to see why I wasn't getting pregnant scheduled for June 8th, so I'll need to call to cancel it. I thought about going in b/c I can't wait to see, but I know it's too early to see anything, so I'll just cancel and schedule my 1st appt. Maybe I'll call Wed also & maybe they'll let me go in the week of June 26 since the next week is a holiday week!! The appts are usually 8, 12, 16, 20 weeks etc. 8 weeks seems like SO far!! When did you say you were planning to tell family? I don't blame you for wanting to tell your boss early so you can avoid Miami!!

Sky - I saw y'all are both going on the 30th. Hope you like your new OB! Also, my OB said for me to continue the folic acid and make sure I take DHA too with my multi vitamin. I'm just taking women's 1 a day not a prenatal. Wish I was taking a prenatal now bc this is a lot of pills! But, I don't want to waste.

Lola and I really need to quit testing so don't buy anymore Sky. [emoji23]

Dreaming - Did you make it through the day?? What dosage, how many times a day are you suppose to take it? Just curious in case I end up taking again.

Sky-I know what you mean...I have been in such disbelief that I just.can't.stop POAS!!! Watching the progression has helped it sink in!!
Kat-beautiful lines!! Looking SO good, can't wait for you to kick off the appts for the dd trifecta later in June !! For now, we can live vicariously through Ash's appt THIS FRIDAY-Or should I say Fri-yay, can't wait!! I did test with a frer and I can see the progression, but don't think I'll be satisfied until it's darker than the control!
I'm sure all of you are tired of my crazy testing, but here it is:

Posting the sway looks like so much work [emoji23] I'm not sure Atomic will approve of mine since I was only on it 4 weeks but I guess no ones is perfect. My husband is convinced this baby is another girl which is annoying me. Apparently he's looking up girl names, none of which I like, ugh!! But, I can't really blame him, he has no clue about my secret sway tactics - woohaha (think evil voice [emoji12])!

I think it was dreaming and myself that tried to figure out how to post one time but we couldn't figure it out.
I'm super excited about my appointment Friday and have so much going on this week to keep me busy we have baseball games every night this week. And I have so many orders to catch up on I'm honestly thinking of just giving people their money back to I can quit and just focus on my boys this pregnancy and cleaning the house. It's a full time job with 4 boys and I HATE clutter so I have to stay on top of things.[emoji17]

Kat I started off way back when hoping and swaying for a girl but just ended up wanting a healthly pregnancy boy or girl.

I've just come out to do the grocery shopping but will post a link to the sway form when I get home :) Ash you sound so busy 😯 I think its a good idea to not take any more orders, at least for awhile and maybe give those who have paid and are waiting an option to either get their money back or be satisfied with a completion extension?

That's why I gave up writing grocery lists! Instead, I write them on phone! With my DS3, I was Mrs. Space Cadet! One time, I was frantically looking around the house for my car keys, when my DS1 came up and showed me I had them in my hand [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]! I also locked myself out of the house too many times to count! One more- I forgot that I was heating up a tortilla for a late lunch after putting my DS2 down for a nap. The fire alarm went off, I threw the griddle with the flaming wrap into the sink with running water to put out the flames! However, I forgot to reheat the grilled chicken! Luckily my DS2 could literally sleep through a hurricane- he didn't wake up! So I decided a safer lunch would be a bowl of cereal, until my DS1 found the cereal box was in the fridge and the milk was in the pantry! We worked out it had been there for 3-4 hours by the time he found it after school! Yeah, luckily we all survived 🤣🤣!!

Dreamin good to hear your scan went well. Can't wait to know little bean gender soon.

Lolla and Kat. Awesome lines of BFP :).

Ash. It's better to give time to yourself and your kids. You need much of your time baby to rest and to enjoy pregnancy. Do enough work that can not make you tired.

Pbn. This is what happened with me last week. I forgot my grocery list at home and then I just bought things which I could remember.

Srg. It's more like a little man. My daughter US at 10 week was showing fully small baby with features. I hope this is your boy because boys take time for everything as compare to girls who are believed to be more active.

Hopefully I will see to doctor this week. Still afraid. Everything must be okay I wish.

Hey Kat, so I took one pill of 10mg at 11am and by 1pm I was narcoleptic! Granted the recommendation is to start by taking 2 at bedtime only and to only increase to a morning pill if the nausea is still severe. Then increase again to an afternoon pill from there if the morning doesn't cut it.
It totally helped my nausea. I've been able to eat and drink today but I did sleep half the day away. Hopefully just the nighttime dosage will be enough and I will adjust to the sleepiness. Below is the pamphlet: https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20170606/82e9eb99eaecccc01b52844296da42e6.jpg

I also found the medication bottle the doc gave me during my last pregnancy (9 years ago! [emoji51]) and it was Zofran. I only took it a few times though because the headaches I got from it were outrageous. Hence the full bottle still in my medicine cabinet.
Thanks for all the well wishes. I've been in such a dark place this last week and a half.

Hi ladies, I've been entirely awol again. The sickness is destroying my spirit a tiny bit, and making me entirely disinclined to do much of anything really. It know it'll pass, and it'll be worth it, but I'm just so tired of feeling (and looking, thanks acne!) so crappy.

I'm 9+4 now so I'm hanging all hopes on starting to feel relatively normal in the next few weeks.

In less whiny news, I have my 12 week scan booked so I'm looking forward to seeing the little monkey destroying my body again :D

I didnot sway this time. Had a one time deal and just my luck ended up with a BFP.

I have 3 girls. I swayed only for my 3rd and it failed. Was devastated. Finally got over the gender disappointment a year later only to find myself in this new predicament.

Yes i found out gender with my 3 girls at 20 weeks each. In fact i knew even before the tech.
This time i am afraid i will go stir crazy depressed if i hear girl. I am already depressed about having to manage 4 kids with my crazy life. So i am hoping by delivery time i would have at least be done and over with this depression and then i will tackle the next phase of depression if it is my 4th girl.

Hi and welcome bluebooties! I remember you from the 2ww thread when you fell pregnant with your 3rd! How the time flies! Hope you hear blue 💙 surprise pregnancy = surprise gender I've seemed to notice on here so there is always a chance 💙 I'll add you to the ddg and enter your due date after your dating scan :)

4blue1pink so good to hear from you!! That sucks you've been so ill :( Cant wait for your scan!!

Kat I'm not working out at all but I get to use rhe excuse my ob said no strenuous exercise and because I never used to exercise getting up is strenuous to me (joking) 😂😂 I do have a dvd of a yoga/pliates/tai chi class I'm looking forward to starting hopefully by the weekend 😀 its from a class I used to do when I was right into fitness before falling pregnant with ds2.

Lola that's awesome having a gym membership! Do theydo group fitness classes there? The ones I used to go to actually catered for pregnant women in the same class as in they advised a different move when need be. Loved them classes!

Srg you sound like my sister who runs almost every morning and then competes or runs on weekends 😝 she has the most gorgeous figure and I have always wished I had her passion for running. They say you get addicted to the 'feeling' which is true in her case but I've never felt anything other than 'is it over yet?' 😂 So jealous of you being so active!!! In regards to tingling bbs don't remember that but they are still terribly sore and have been from bfp it seems like! Plus they are humongous or have gone from 3 month old deflated balloon to newly inflated balloon more accurately 😂 I'm already back into wearing my maternity bras 😩 a lovely cup size E

Pbn-there are group classes & a babysitter at this gym, so I'll have to look into what type...thanks for giving me the idea to check on it!
Kat-I def have tingly boobs. I know the exact feeling you're describing!!
These strong smells are getting to me ugh! My poor DS2 had a tummy ache today needing about 4 pull-up changes in a row...it leaked through his shorts onto my shirt when carrying him...ugh the smell wouldn't go away! We were on a little day trip to the beach and serpentarium, so luckily had a shirt to change into, but still smelled it the whole way home blehh!! We went to this coolest place with alligators, turtles & snakes....boys loved it...but have to say...I have this reoccurring nightmare often when I'm pregnant....snakes are chasing me...so hope I'm not going to trigger this nightmare. Couldn't believe that they had open exhibits where there were at least 100 snakes on logs, trees, water etc...tall enough wall where they couldn't get out, but not behind glass ewww lol

Luckily my moconna brand decaf and cafe decaf is not too bad but I never imagined I would miss it this much 😮 I feel like I could sit in a coffee house/cafe just to breathe in the smell all day 😂 I went to decaf off my own bat and plan to for the rest of the 1st trimester but I'm going to ask my ob if she thinks its ok to reintroduce in the 2nd tri.....can't believe I never had to worry about this when pregnant with the boys! I think I likely drank more than the recommended amount 😕

Kat I am not doing any excercise. Actually this summer don't allow me. I already feel tired and not have even little energy to work out.

Srg. Very impressive workout girl. Keep it up.

Pbn. Love the way you describe your feelings about coffee. This is called pregnancy when some things comes on our nerves. You know I never liked vegetable named momordica charantia but with this pregnancy a week before I was getting emotional that today I just wanna eat that. My husband was laughing on me but I cooked and ate then got satisfied. That was amazing feeling of taste when I was eating like it's most tasty dish I ever ate ;)

I will prob take several days off and then use the last frer. I also have 1 cb digi with weeks estimator & I'll prob use it at 5 weeks so it will hopefully say 3+ on it.

Pbn - nausea is very very mild and only at certain points of the day!! I'll be soooooo happy if it stays this way, but also concerned something's wrong 🤣 However, I'm only 4 weeks 4 days so definitely could get worse. I really wonder if it was so bad with my last pregnancy bc I did progesterone suppositories - that's what I'm hoping. My body is super sensitive to hormones, birth control makes me nauseous. I'll let y'all know if it gets bad, don't worry [emoji23][emoji23][emoji23]

My wondfos are getting darker but I wouldn't say they are blazing red by any means. Trying not to read too much into it. Time will tell!! Trying to hold and test again tonight bc I'm crazy like that [emoji12]

Kat why did you have to take progesterone? Do you have to take it this time?

And I know they're going to try to push it this time also but I just don't know if i want to go for it or not. It'll depend a lot on if it's a girl or boy

Hi everyone. Couldn't read the updates because we have a crazy schedule these days. Classes and more classes. Some days I don't even feel pregnant and some are just bleh. Today is one of those days. Ate breakfast and started feeling like crap. The worse thing is tingling feet. I was so scared to even drive. I did a lot walking and stomping before sitting
In the car. Need to talk to OB about it at the appointment. I don't have ms but I feel nauseous. Didn't feel
Like this with dd. I have put in weight around my stomach area already. Was Hardly showing with dd until 7-8 months because I m already broad and heavy. dh also noticed that yesterday. I also feel uncomfortable for a minute sometimes longer after peeing. I wanted to mention all this and see if anyone else feels the same.
Sorry about the rant. I need to start losing weight or else this pregnancy isn't going to be easy. I have realized it. [emoji52][emoji52]
I promise to come bk after catching up. Off to cooking and then another class. I didn't know I would get pregnant before signing dd up. [emoji51][emoji51]

Ash - I was on it for piece of mind probably. I had had a chemical the cycle before so they checked P when I got pregnant again and just say normal level (totally making up numbers) is 8-15, I was at an 8 and my OB said it wasn't necessary but she'd prescribe it and like an idiot I took them until whatever week the placenta takes over. They are a pain and messy and I've read Atomic say they don't even help. But, I had a healthy (yet miserable bc so sick) pregnancy. I just always wondered if it was the P bc I got very nauseous the day or two after I started them which was right at 4.5 weeks.
So will you take shots if a boy but not a girl? I'm confused!

Sky - I don't have those. Just slightly nauseous here and tingly boobs!

AshFind
June 7th, 2017, 05:36 PM
Kat I will take them if it's a bit more than likely but not a girl. They say girls handle early birth way better than boys and I heard this from my ob office and nearly all the nurses in the ob ward. Since I have late early labor I think it'd be ok

Thankyou for asking Pbn. Yes thankfully it didn't happen again and I m feeing good about it. I havebn on the run lately and not sitting for longer intervals after reading about it on google.
You know with my dd my OB checked me for uti twice and it came out positive and I had to be on antibiotics. They gave me IV medicine while I was in labor so that dd would be safe if Vaginal but she chose a different route altogether [emoji12][emoji12][emoji12] and they didn't even check me a lot for dilation because of that. So, I think I m prone to minor uti when pregnant which is so strange. We aren't even bding because it gets worse after that. Poor dh. I m trying to drink a lot of water. It's fine for now but when it happens it's so uncomfortable. Sorry about a long post.
