What's new with baby (size, development): Sweet pea! Lungs, limbs and facial features are beginning to form
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: still just reading and absorbing information. I need to start eating better or I'm going to be the size of an elephant by November
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: Boobs are still killing me. Intermittent nausea but nothing debilitating yet.
When is your next appointment: First appt is 4/7. Can't wait!
GTKY: (stolen from Monday) Tell me about your first boyfriend! I was a late bloomer (super shy when younger) so it wasn't till college. He was nice, but I wasn't really into it, I just really wanted a boyfriend. Used him till I couldn't stand it any longer. Still feel pretty bad about that...
What's new with baby (size, development): Baby is the size of a blueberry now
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: nothing still
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: I'm constantly fuckin queasy now I hate it with all my heart. That's my biggest complaint. And th exhaustion is nuts.
When is your next appointment: next Wednesday, the 30th
GTKY: (stolen from Monday) Tell me about your first boyfriend! He was a bastard. I'll always have a soft spot for him, and we dated on and off for years. But, he's still a bastard.
What's new with baby (size, development): Sweet pea! Heart should be beating
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: Still not much yet. Briefly discussed names last night and sounds like it's going to be quite the task considering my husband and I have completely different tastes in names.
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: Starting to to have weird tastes in my mouth after eating, mild nausea and exhaustion, on and off sore boobs.
When is your next appointment: Two weeks from today...4/7. Longest two week wait ever.
GTKY: (stolen from Monday) Tell me about your first boyfriend! First boyfriend was when we lived in England. I was in middle school. We held hands and kissed each other on the cheeks then I told my bff to tell his bff that he was dumped because he ignored some of my e-mails.
What's new with baby (size, development): size of a wild strawberry
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: Just trying not to freak out at every little thing. I hate having no clue whats going on in there.
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: Really sore boobs, they have ramped up the intensity this past week. Occasional queasiness but nothing awful to speak of. BLOAT! Really awful bloat and I just feel like I can't suck it in, like its too much work. I'm also feeling really tired, especially when I'm not moving around at work, like when I finally get a minute to sit I want to sleep. But I'm sleeping worse at night. Um, what else? Breakouts on my back, bad pregnancy gas, and actually really strong nails. So thats a plus. ETA: I'm also always craving sweets! I NEVER have a sweet tooth, but now its all I want.
When is your next appointment: Today, but I don't think I get an ultrasound. It sounds like its just an initial appointment with a nurse to go over paperwork and my options and all that. But because I've had spotting, cramping and sharp pains off and on throughout these past 8 weeks I'm going to push really hard for one. If I don't get one today I'll make an appointment for sometime really soon to get one because I can't wait until my next appointment on April 27th. I'd go insane and I'd take my husband with me.
GTKY: (stolen from Monday) Tell me about your first boyfriend! He was a jerk, and I look back on that relationship with embarrassment. I was only a freshman in HS, but still, it was awful.
What's new with baby (size, development): 1/2 a Lego brick, handprint showed up on my Ovia app What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: Still nothing. Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: Still nauseous and I can't wait for it to end. Got to see baby today! When is your next appointment: Had one today and I go back in 2 weeks. GTKY: (stolen from Monday) Tell me about your first boyfriend! I think we "dated" for like 2 weeks. He was nerdy and quiet. I'm pretty sure he only went out with me because the girl he actually liked told him to. We held hands on the bus and that was it.
What's new with baby (size, development): Baby is a blueberry
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: nothing yet. Probably going to let my daycare know this week or next since they'll need plenty of notice.
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: Just that I haven't been to an appointment yet. My first real appointment with my OB is on April 4. I had my intake appointment today over the phone with one of the nurses this morning and I am having blood drawn tomorrow. I'm ready for some more information!
When is your next appointment: April 4. Can't wait to hear that little heartbeat!
GTKY: (stolen from Monday) Tell me about your first boyfriend! I'm pretty sure he still lives at home with his mother.

What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: Reading the Mayo Clinic's Guide and sleeping a lot
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: This nausea sucks. I can barely function. The smell of almost anything makes me gag. I'm living off Hawaiian rolls, crackers and water.
When is your next appointment: Tuesday! 5 days!
GTKY: (stolen from Monday) Tell me about your first boyfriend! It was back in middle school, he was nice to me, but a little weird and so not my type. We held hands, I don't think it went further than that!
