Week/Fruit: Week 10!

Upcoming Appointments: Finally get to see my Dr. this week. Looking forward to learning more about an anti-body I've developed since my first pregnancy and hearing baby's heart beat again.

Rants/Raves/Symptoms: I am so glad to be in week 10 and am really looking forward to week 13. Also, as much as I want to tell people about our baby, I'm realizing that it's so much more peaceful not dealing with everyone else knowing. And their questions/suggestions/advice.

GTKY: Are you doing anything fun for Halloween this weekend? Just going to some Halloween parties with DD and DH.

@sarawifenow I haven't had any headaches this time yet, but I did with my daughter. Have you tried Tylenol. I know headaches are normal in pregnancy, but keep an eye on it and tell your doctor if they get worse.

@jfarm19 yes, I've had a couple of cravings week 7-9, but they seem to be dying down since then.

Week/Fruit: 9 weeks! We have a little green olive this week!

Upcoming Appointments: My next apt is on 11/24. We have our 12 week ultrasound and apt with the Doctor right after.

Rants/Raves/Symptoms: Knocking on wood as I'm typing this, but yesterday and today have been a bit better with the nauseous feeling. It's still not great but it sure was worse before.

I can't wait for my next apt! We are going to share the news with everyone (besides family who already knows). I'm hoping this next month goes by quick!

Questions for the group:

GTKY: Are you doing anything fun for Halloween this weekend? We are bringing DD to a few houses to trick or treat. She is still young so it will be a quick outing. We also have family coming over on Halloween.

@jfarm19 I have been craving coconut all day today. Don't even know what that's all about! Went to the supermarket and they didn't have any.

Week/Fruit: 12/Plum

Upcoming Appointments: Not until mid-week 14

Rants/Raves/Symptoms: Unrelated pregnancy rant: I "threw out" my back over the weekend. I'm in SO much pain!! I have a chronic lower back issue and I am so worried that this may happen again or more frequently when I have a big pg belly. I have exercises and strengthening moves I'm supposed to be doing and I am pretty regular about it, but I suppose I can always be doing more. For now it's painful to get in and out of a chair--much less doing my exercises. I'm just frustrated!! 

Questions for the group: None today

GTKY: Are you doing anything fun for Halloween this weekend? We are going to a party. I'm going as Wednesday Addams. Not very creative, I know.

Week/Fruit: 12/plum

Upcoming Appointments: I have 12 week appointment tomorrow, and a follow up NT screen next Monday. I went in last week for the NT but *surprise* it was too early for them to measure what they needed to measure (which is exactly what I told them on the phone when I scheduled.) But thats ok, I get to leave work early and that means three weeks in a row where I get to see my baby

Rants/Raves/Symptoms: Still feel like crap. I had this idea that week 12 would magically erase all the crappy symptoms, but nope. Still feeling rough! @sarawifenow I've had some headaches, but I was very prone to them before. I just try to drink a lot of water, take tylenol, and a nap if I can. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesnt! The headaches do seem worse than my pre-pregnancy ones. 

Questions for the group: None at the moment!

GTKY: Are you doing anything fun for Halloween this weekend? We are having a party at our house and finally announcing to all of our friends! I bought the shirt with the skeleton/skeleton baby on it, so thats what I'm going to wear. I'm can't wait for everybody to know, I'm sick of hiding it. Unfortunately, we still won't be telling DH's extended family until after Thanksgiving when we can see his grandmother in person. Honestly, I kind of hope somebody blows it and they all find out, because I hate keeping it a secret!
