How's everyone?!

Question

How is everyone feeling? I had some issues with my food taking awhile to digest. 😟I had no idea that our digestive system slows down.😟

Answer

I feel just funky, not nausea. Just this week I noticed the intense hunger followed by intense sensation of overfull after eating a small amount.  I've been feeling slow transit of digestion all along, but not terrible enough to take something, really trying to keep up on the water. 
I'll be 10 weeks tomorrow and saw my midwife for the first time on Monday. She said no ultrasound until 20 weeks, so no nuchal translucency screening and I haven't seen him since 8 weeks.  I'm super sad, but I'm assuming it's because we did PGS testing.  Am I silly to think about asking to have it done just so I can see baby boy? I don't really need the screening.🤷

Answer

I hear you on the slow digestion. Ugh. I’m constantly feeling simultaneously hungry and super full from whatever I previously ate. I’ve definitely gained weight and am currently in that awkward phase of pregnancy where I just look like I’m putting on weight and not yet looking pregnant. I can’t wait till I start looking proper pregnant!

Answer

Today is the first day I’m really feeling the slow digestion! Oh boy is it unpleasant! BUT I’ll take that if it means I can start eating real food again! Proteins, fruits, veggies!! It’s been so long since I’ve eaten these 3 food groups 😂

Answer

Going for my NT tomorrow. Will be 13+1. Do you ever stop getting nervous before these things?! I always worry I’ll hear bad news. 🙄 I need to chill! 
Had my nipt last week— hoping to get the results in early next week! I did PGS testing so technically I can already know the gender but there was something exciting about waiting haha!

Answer

Had my 12 week NT scan today! Baby girl was moving around and we even saw her yawn! It was amazing. I’m in love with her already. ❤️

Answer

Hey! Yes, my digestion is waaay slow right now. I'm going to start taking Colace for it to feel less gross. 
Just had an ultrasound. I'm 11w Friday and the baby is measuring 11w3d. We saw it doing a little dance during the scan. So hard to get my head around because I can't feel any of it yet! Excited though! 😊 I had genetic screening blood work on Monday and will get results next week. Cannot wait for that.

How's everyone?!
