I feel fine. More energy in general. Been hiking and walking around more. Easy courseload this semester so I'm not at all worried. Woke up to a nice bump Monday morning!

You know when's the best time to get food poisoning? The weekend before finals!! Had the worst time this past weekend. Severe dehydration, desperately trying to study while not being able to eat or drink, just 10/10 great time. Anyway, I passed my Biochem class which I was the most worried about - so now that that's done I just get to bundle up, enjoy the holidays, and do a quick and easy PoliSci100 class for my gened. I think my morning sickness has died down but it's really hard to tell what with the food poisoning and such. The fatigue is definitely gone, I woke up exactly eight hours after I fell asleep and feel... refreshed? Oh my god it's been so long! I think I'm starting to get a bump but it's difficult to tell for sure. But I hope so!

Lots to catch up on.

So two days ago I stopped having unisom every night and I REGRET EVERYTHING ‘IM SO NAUSEOUS ALL THE FUCKING TIME.

I have an appointment on Monday to listen to the heartbeat, excited for that!

Last week on Tuesday I had some blood drawn for CellFree, a test that looks for chromosomal abnormalities (well, a screening tool, not a test, but semantics). I chose it instead if the NT scan because, well, I don’t really need another ultrasound and cellfree is more accurate anyway.

On Tuesday I got a call from the genetic counselor to hear that yes! Everything is fine, and also, they found Y fragments in my blood stream.

Y fragments?

That’s right! It’s a boy! Baby Harrison is coming into the world to the absolute joy of his dad, mom, and big sister. Melody is so excited.

Last Tuesday I saw the baby bean for my first ultrasound. Very happy that the baby is measuring right on - actually a day older than I thought! Nausea is still real. Been skipping a lot of class and leaving work early.

I will not be posting anything related to politics. 

Last night I took my b6 unisom combo WAY too late because I was rushing to get a big paper done. Whoopsie! Not the best idea. At 10pm I was feeling a little queasy and at 11 I had to go lay down. It’s continued into today. Today is just the worst. I feel so beyond normal levels of sickness right now. Which I guess means that I’m still definitely growing a healthy baby in there, and also that I low-key wish for death.

I took some b6 and Unisom last night and I have to say, I’m not nauseous this morning.

I am, however, dead tired. I don’t know if it’s the unisom or the baby.

Morning sickness is here!

Just like last pregnancy, it kicked tf in at exactly 6w0d and I’ve been struggling. I get out of breath walking up stairs (and walking in general), I constantly feel like I’m going to puke, and sometimes the nausea is so bad I need to just lay down. I’m not getting my vegetables in, I’m not getting enough sleep, everything is terrible.

Last night I tried to forget about my gag reflex and give a blowjob. It went okay. Sex was probably a bit too rough because I began bleeding (pink) although it stopped very soon afterwards. I’m not worried about miscarriage in that aspect, although it’s still kind of an overarching worry.

On Monday I had my first prenatal visit with a nurse to go over paperwork and what to expect. I’ll be honest, the visit was probably unnecessary. I already know how pregnancy works and I don’t anticipate any big differences.

I spoke to my guidance counselor to make sure I’m able to graduate in May and she sees no reason why I wouldn’t be able to. I will be taking a year off of education afterwards. No internship until this baby is a year old.

Exhaustion is real.

After a two hour lab of literally sitting on my ass reading a study guide for Community Nutrition I went home and was so exhausted I needed a nap. So I set a timer to go off in two hours and passed tf out.

And when it went off I set it to go off in another half an hour.

And then I did it again.

I got to class at 2pm just barely in time and almost fell asleep. Was not at all prepared for my exam. Still think I did ok. Having a hard time staying up now. The exhaustion is real.

my prenatals

I take some softgel horsepills with EPA and DHA and I know it should help somewhat but I don’t know for sure because I didn’t pay enough attention in my life cycle nutrition course.

More pregnant than last month!

Took a test this morning after not taking one for like, 2 days. The test line is as dark as the control line. Crazy!

Had my blood drawn on Thursday and got the results that my HCG was at 391. It had quadrupled in 72 hours! Haha, I could’ve cried.

Jesse and I have settled on a boy’s name. Harrison Paul. 

For girls we’re kind of stuck. I love love LOVE the name Charlotte, but I know very well it’s going to be one of the top popular names over the next five years. Another much loved option is Caroline. 

We went to Target and kind of looked at baby stuff and bought a box of diapers.

4w2d or something like that

Yep I got pregnant again.

My OB is very disappointed because she told me to wait a whole cycle but EAT MY BUTT DR BROWN-SULLIVAN I DO WHAT A WAHNT.

Anyway so I’m pregnant again. This time, however, the lines on my hpts are getting noticeably darker. At no point last month did the lines ever get past that squinty stage, so I’m already clear that way.

I had blood drawn on Monday to check my HCG and progesterone levels. My HCG came back at 89, which is perfectly normal at my gestational age, although not high enough for me to not be freaked out all the time. Progesterone was something like 16.89 which is completely normal as well.

My second draw is tomorrow in the morning. The nurse says she’d expect me to be at 190 for HCG. If I am close to that, I’ll be more than happy and possibly stop freaking out all the time. They’re also planning a dating ultrasound because I didn’t have a LMP. That being said, I’m pretty sure my due date is June 26th based off of my ovulation date.

Anyway, here’s hoping for a rainbow baby.

C3D26

I ovulated something like 2-3 days ago. Waaaaaay way later than I wanted to. In a perfect world I’d have ovulated on CD14 and already be like, two weeks DPO. And even if I’d ovulated on CD 17 like last month, I’d be already taking pregnancy tests.

But as it stands I still have like, a week to go. >:[

As far as symptoms go, my pregnancy symptoms basically disappeared by the time I got to the hospital to confirm. My breasts were small until about CD19 but then they popped back up. Just in case I’d ovulated on CD17 I took an hpt - which was negative.

Jesse and I occasionally get sad. It really does feel unfair that we’re trying when we should already be pregnant. This past Monday I had set up an appointment to do an ultrasound and I had to scribble it off my calendar.

Life goes on.

Chemical Pregnancy

I had a feeling this was going to happen because the lines on my pregnancy tests weren’t getting any darker. Yesterday at work I started spotting and a pregnancy test came up as negative. This morning I woke up to heavy bleeding. The CBD came up as “Not pregnant.” 

I lost the baby.

School started yesterday and I’m already freaking out but it’ll be fine - I just have to keep reminding myself that it’ll all be fine.

No symptoms yet other than the occasional bit of nausea. It’s not severe or anything and it honestly might be because I’m just waking up so much earlier than I’m used to. 

I called a doctor and set up an appointment. My first prenatal visit is on October 3rd.

CD29 11pm

I’M PREGNANT!!!!

I’M FUCKING PREGNANT GUYS!!!

As I was wallowing earlier I nearly called in sick to work and just didn’t go. But, ten minutes before I had to leave on my commute, I decided to dig through the garbage and take another look.

The first test I had taken around 11am was still completely blank, nothing there. But I had gone back to sleep and taken another test at around 1pm and it’d come up negative again and I’d thrown it away.

And it had a faint pink line.

And I FREAKED. I called Jesse at his mom’s house and was freaking out because I wasn’t sure if it was an evap line or whatever and eventually I had to go to work just agonizing over whether it was a true positive or not.

Jesse came home from his mom’s and picked up some tests for me to take when I got home. I held it in for about 3 hours and came home, peed, took out the garbage, came back, and IT WAS POSITIVE. AHHHH. I’M HAVING ANOTHER BABY!!!!!
