Checkin in 💙

@Jada This is my 3rd baby. I heard as you have more children, you will start to show sooner. I’m a little sad about it because it has me a little worried that I’ll be humongous by the end but as long as I’m healthy, baby’s healthy and I and can still breathe, I’ll take it. lol 😆 Dry skin? that’s a new one for me! 😭 How have you been handling it? use a hyaluronic acid serum for night time and try to use a hyaluronic acid mask as well.

Definitely gaining dry skin but I have eczema already so it’s just adding to it. My father in law makes a salve that I use religiously and that is what has helped me!

I’m tired. My bump looks like I’m so much further than I am because this is pregnancy number 4 and I’ve developed 2 fibroids in my lower uterus that has the baby higher than he should. Thank the extreme nausea/hg has drastically decreased

My nausea is starting to go away, but the heartburn is sneaking in in it place. I think I preferred the nausea. 14 weeks today.

@Narissa at least you’ve got the potion 🪴💕

@Melanie wow! Sorry to hear that. Did you have problems with fibroids before pregnancy?

@Katrina 😅 I’d have to agree with that. I’d rather deal with the nausea. Usually a peppermint would take that right away for me.

@Fran he sells it online! Essence of Paradise! You can find their website and they have an instagram!

@Fran I had 2 prior to my first pregnancy. I developed another one during my second pregnancy that grew during the pregnancy but shrank after delivery.

@Amber Awww, are we sad about the gender? I’m also having a boy, super excited cause he’s my first after 2 girls 💙 lol I’m glad you went! Better to have gone now then further down the road, although I have no clue how you did that in this heat! 🥵 Kudos to you momma, have baby girl rub your feet. 😂

@Melanie when it’s growing, what’s the protocol? I’m glad they don’t cause you too much complication!

@Fran more frequent ultrasounds to monitor the baby and the fibroid growth.

@Fran I am a little saddened since this will be my last baby (if this relationship stands the test of time lol) but I am glad that my son will grow up with a brother. I only went because I wanted to do something special for my daughter’s birthday that was all about her so she chose all of our activities while in the park yesterday. And we went to Hollywood not Orlando lol. I’m from Los Angeles originally and my dad lives out kinda close to San Diegoish so we’re here visiting for a bit. I live in Houston now so the weather out here is nothing compared to back home.

I’m 14 weeks on Tuesday, I’m sick alllll night, tired allll day lol I have a pretty big bump but this is baby #5 I’ve always showed early
