What's new with baby (size, development): blueberry, brain cells and kidneys. Important stuff.
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: nothing! Hopefully telling baby's big sisters next week after our ultrasound
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: I'm getting really weirded out because my symptoms come and go so much. But at the end of the day when my bra comes off its like "ahhhh, there they are!"
When is your next appointment: Tuesday the 19th at 7w6d
GTKY: Tell me about your happiest childhood memory. Probably when I went to Disney world. Sure I was 17, but it was the best memory ever.
What's new with baby (size, development): Tic tac, building a more complex brain and circulatory system. Still a TON happening at a very rapid pace.
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: Still nothing really. I'm not feeling overly optimistic yet given my history. I feel like I will jinx myself
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: My breast tenderness diminished significantly in like 24 hours which has be terrified. That was really my biggest symptom. I feel like things aren't escalating for me at all, which is playing in to my anxiety that things aren't progressing normally in there.
When is your next appointment: Friday. It can't come soon enough.
GTKY Happiest childhood memory: I have no idea! Baking Christmas cookies with my Grandmother, lots of swimming in the summer & putting cabbage patch dresses on our male Yorkie (he was the best dog & playmate).

Omg, I used to put cabbage patch clothes on our Yorkies too!! My cousins and I would just crack up
What's new with baby (size, development): Size of a cherry (about an inch long) intestines forming.
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: nothing really.
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: nausea is getting better but I'm still annoyed by the food aversions/cravings. And the fact that if I don't eat the moment I feel hungry, I'll start to get nauseous. Then when I do eat, I can only eat a few bites before I'm full, which in turn means I will be hungry/nauseous again in about 1.5 hrs. Who has time for that?! Also, exhaustion.
When is your next appointment: beginning of next month. I don't remember the day.
GTKY: Tell me about your happiest childhood memory.
Summer sleep away camp! I looked forward to it all year and never wanted to leave!
Sorry for the blank comment, sometimes I don't know what I am doing haha
Week: 10
What's new with baby (size, development): Size of a strawberry, fingernails and hair are starting to form, vital organs are developed and starting to form.
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: Started a pregnancy journal
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: My one rant is my MIL, she keeps calling me "little mommy" and it just really irritates me for some reason, granted most things she says really irritates me even when I am not pregnant lol Other people calling me mommy or mom just weirds me out right now. I think because this is my first and I don't look at myself as a "mom" right now, I am sure that will change in a few months. I was really nauseas all the time up until last Sunday. Definitely not complaining, the whole having to eat 3 bites every 2 hours was getting old lol. Now I just don't feel like eating and nothing sounds good!
When is your next appointment: I haven't even had my first OB appointment yet!! So I go April 19 for my first appointment!
GTKY: Tell me about your happiest childhood memory. Happiest childhood memory would probably be going to Disney World for the first time and going to stay with my grandma and grandpa almost every weekend! I always loved being at their house and would beg my parents to just let me stay there. I am still super close to my grandma to this day
What's new with baby (size, development): strawberry
What's something new you are doing to get ready for baby: told a bunch of friends about the pregnancy on Saturday at a wine & cheese party I was hosting. Slowly the secret is getting out.

When is your next appointment: in 2 weeks on the 27th
GTKY: Tell me about your happiest childhood memory. Spending my summers in my grandparents' mountain house in the Vosges in France. They just sold the house last summer and I'm still upset about it.

You just summed up my life right here. So terrible! I'll tell hubby I'm hungry and want to go eat and he will wait 30 min before we go. And I say, "you don't understand, we cannot wait another minute. The hunger turns to nausea in a hot minute and then there's no turning back."
