I highly recommend it. I’ve seen way too many young, healthy people die from the flu. Since I work in a hospital it’s required or we lose our job. I got it before I was pregnant this time, but had it while pregnant with both my boys. It’s very safe during pregnancy.Quote:

He may sense the new baby, mines been acting up lately too awful. But my sister also lives with us with my nephew... so lol that’s contributing. We moved back in with my mom when my dad died to help her out. So crowded at times, but I like it. I try to ignore it and then end up giving in to him. He doesn’t throw them for too long though. Will probably get worse once there’s two babies in his territory rather than just one.

Im feeling better on the nausea side , still exhausted but my varicose veins are hurting and im already on blood thinner injections and asprin. one feels like a knot i just want it to stop pinching, will have to look into whether anything can be done while pregnant. i was told last time i saw a specialist for them that i would have to have them stripped from the groin, not a candidate for laser.. yeah like i could lay down after surgery for 2 weeks with 4 kids before this pregnancy lol
hope everyone else is getting less and less nausea etc. xx
Oh Grace! That sounds awful! I’m sorry you are going through that!

I dont get the flu shot. I got it once and felt super horrible. Never again. In the news the other day a lady died and she got the flu shot she still got super sick with the flu. Just be careful not to be around alot of people out there.
Is a personal preference and is really up to you if you want to get it or not.
Mommy 2 apples sorry to hear about your dad.
Thanks momma, it’s alright.
That sounds crazy momma!

Momma bear the flu shot doesn’t cover every strain of the flu, it would be almost impossible to make one that does because of how viruses mutate. It doesn’t mean no one should get it.
Grace that sounds miserable. That’s awful you’re dealing with that on top of pregnancy, I hope you can get some relief.

Sorry I should clarify I didnt say that no one shouldn't get it. Since is a personal preference.Quote:

I'll be 15 weeks this week and it usually starts bothering me sometime during the second trimester.Quote:

mommy2apples, sorry to hear about your dad, too young. my OB said the flu shot is non negotiable she's had people almost die she said, this is my first time where i have had a private OB and private hospital so it's strange to have the same OB all the way through i didn't get that in the public system just who ever was on so ill listen to her, I hate needles but hey i'm on my 4th month of injections now (clexane) so why not lol
i know i'm not the only one with varicose veins so i hope no one else gets them this achy , its summer here 41C tomorrow so if i start wearing support stockings now ill have to stay in air con lol at least i'm due in our winter :)
Thanks Grace, it’s been a couple years. Still hurts on holidays and birthdays. He won’t get to meet his youngest three grandchildren which stinks. That’s hard, because he adored his grand babies for sure!
Grace I got the flu shot my second ob visit with no problems.

Aw I'm so sorry to hear that Mommy2apples! Hugs to you.

Wow Grace it's really hot there! It's the complete opposite here lol. I'll have to get some support stockings this time around.
Thanks MIka! Hope you are feeling alright!

Are you all going to announce in a cute way or have you already?!?
I’m beyond excited! Can’t wait to see my beautiful baby on the screen!

I know! We've told most people were expecting but not telling the gender until the ultrasound just in case the blood test isn't accurate.
As for the gender I'm going to take my results to a balloon/party shop and get them to do a balloon gender reveal that we can just do at home with the boys and all find out together. How about you??
If it's a girl I am genuinely afraid for my bank account because I am going to go crazy! If it's a boy I have plenty of clothes so I'll save some money that way.
JL7, I’m not sure yet! As my husband has said something about having our five year old run his 4wheeler over a balloon.
I hear you there girl! I’ve not had a girl in 9 years!!

JL7 how old are your boys? Mine are 4 and 2 but they were both born in cold months so I’m afraid their clothes might not all work since this will be an August baby. It would give me a reason to buy more cute boy clothes though! Anyways, can’t wait to hear what you’re having :)
Mommy are you doing a private scan at 16 weeks? Or did your doctor agree to do an early check for you?

Lol Greydore my dr is a stickler, lol two ultrasounds is all she will allow me to have, because there’s no complications. So going for a private scan.

Pbn has one for all of us that’s wants to be in it from genderdreaming. Just pm message her on here and tell her you’d like to be added!

Mine are 8 and 5. Far out you're right, they were both born in the middle of summer and this one is coming at the end of Winter (August) so it looks like I'm going to have to buy clothes either way. Kids are so expensive lol.
I am nervous and excited to find out. I guess I am ready for the outcome. I am thinking of a cute way to announce the gender. We havent told anyone that we are pregnant just yet. It will be a shocker for everyone thats for sure. Honestly not looking forward to negative comments or dumb face expressions at the moment. I am not in the hurry to announce.:babym::babyf:
