Due in October, November & December 2018

I feel ya, I've been in the same boat myself a lot lately with docs just blowing things off. I swear unless you're actively dying before them they assume you're a hypochondriac till proven otherwise. :/

Many things are all but unstudied. Doctors say "oh that's ok" when they have not seen an actual study saying "for the love of G-d avoid this!" but that does not mean things are safe. I wouldn't do it. Peppermint is something we use in swaying to reduce estrogen levels and since the study above has shown that lavender oil and tea tree oil are actively messing up hormones, I have to suggest against using them during pregnancy.

Hope you're feeling better soon!!!

Yes especially kids, my best friend is a pediatric endocrinologist and told me that absolutely do not let your kids around lavender oil. Its causing premature puberty in both sexes.

I found this tip online in one of my other pregnancies and found it helped if the headache isn't too severe. I suffer from bad headaches and migraines so I feel your pain x

Sit on the edge of your bed with your feet in a bucket of fairly warm water with hour head down at your knees and a cold cloth on the back of your neck. This pulls the blood to your feet and released headaches

I'll have to try this. Thank you!
I'm very sure what I experienced the other night was a migraine not just a headache. I pray that this first trimester goes by fast!

Did you find Out gender too?
We still haven't even told out parents yet.
I am not sure when we will announce. I am still terrified something could go wrong again.

I had my scan last week at 7w0d. I measured at 6 weeks 3 or 4 days, which makes sense to me since I only ovulated on day 17. They found a heartbeat of 120! Since I am only off by 4 days they are sticking with a LMP due date of 11/19. I feel a little better but still very anxious to get my MaterniT21 testing done; after we have those results we will start telling family. Next appt is 5/1 for the first prenatal visit and at that point they will schedule me in with a MFM to get the testing done. Here are 2 pics from my TV scan:
