1) How many weeks are you? 4!  (10/24/17)
2) How are you feeling? good just some mild cramping and some spotting (it's not a lot tho)
3) Any appointments or tests this week? nope, I have one next week for paperwork and to set up other appointments.  I'll bring up the spotting if its still bother me or I will call if it gets worse.
4) Rants/Raves/Questions?  I might be obsessing too much but my tests are still a little faint.  The test I took today is darker then my very first test but I thought by now (14/15 dpo) they would be much darker.  I did turn a ClearBlue Digital test and got the word pregnant but this is all I think about all damn day.

@samyv Thanks for posting this  

1) How many weeks are you? 5Wks today! 
2) How are you feeling?  Last night I had some lengthy cramping that hurt a bit and some round ligament pain. No Bleeding or Spotting so I am not too worried. No morning sickness, just a good appetite. 
3) Any appointments or tests this week? Not this week, my first appointment will be 2/28 
4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Do you ladies use an App for fetal development? If so, what App? I don't like the app i'm using and looking to switch to a free one.

Thanks for posting! At work today so I haven't been able to do it from my phone.

1.) 7 weeks today 
2.) feeling pretty good overall. Random waves of nausea but nothing consistent enough to claim "morning sickness".  Backache and pelvic fullness/aches. Sore boobs/nipples and extreme exhaustion. Even with all this I'm still scared for Thursday's ultrasound!
3.) ultrasound this Thursday to check for a heartbeat. Praying that everything goes well!
4.) Just wanna get into the second trimester and skip all the uncertainty of the 1st trimester 

@mispanda don't obsess over it...a positive hpt is a positive hpt! At 14dpo, mine weren't very dark either and I was worried for no reason.... a beta later that day showed that I was clearly pregnant. Try to relax and enjoy yourself!

@VLillyV I am using sprout and Ovia. Sprout has a cool 3-D feature for fetal development but the info it has isn't that stellar. For that, I prefer Ovia. Which one are you using?

VLillyV

@mispanda Ohh didn't see your question hun. Sorry. I took a ton of HPT tests. I tested initially at 13DPO and 14DPO and got extremely faint squinter (on Wondfo) went out and got FRER 3 pack and the lines were all quick to show and pleasantly dark. A line is a line

@SwtAnana I was using BabyBump Pregnancy Pro (didn't like it) it was always off and not easy to interact with. They had some info tidbits but they were pretty worthless IMO. I just switched over to The Bump app, i like it much better already.

ZukiWife

1) How many weeks are you? 6 Weeks
2) How are you feeling? Not too bad. Exhausted, bloated, sore boobs but not much else
3) Any appointments or tests this week? Ultrasound tonight! 1 week follow up from our visit to the er last week to make sure everything is still ok. Hoping to see a heartbeat
4) Rants/Raves/Questions? No real morning sickness at this point and for some reason it's making me nervous! Haha I think if I was slammed with symptoms, I'd be less worried!

@mispanda I had quite a few squinters from 10-14 DPO on the cheapies but the frer showed up fairly strong. The clearblue tests always seem to show up quite light for me

@VLillyV I've been going back and forth between The Bump app and Ovia. Ovia seems a lot more interactive to me and has lots of spots for your own journal entries as well as the progress updates

mamabear148-2

1) How many weeks are you? 7 weeks today, but baby measured 5 days ahead today

ETA to add all other answers, I hate how buggy the app can be! I swear I answered it all before posting!

2) How are you feeling? Between nauseous and starving all day, and ZERO energy
3) Any appointments or tests this week? First appointment and ultrasound was this morning  
4) Rants/Raves/Questions? This whole nausea/cravings/starving situation is EXHAUSTING. I don't wanna think about food 24/7 any more!! I need to be productive, #$%$%# it!!!!!

GodIsFaithful93

1. 7 weeks today! 
2. Food aversions and smell is heightened. I get nauseous if I don't have enough on my stomach but I don't have consistent morning sickness. A little more tired but nothing crazy.
3.no appointments this week. I went in last Tuesday after my BFPon Sunday because I've previously had an ectopic pregnancy so they always check me very early. 
4. Just like everyone else I'm ready for the first tri to be over. Having two early losses in the past makes me nervous, uneasy, and I over think everything. 

Sprinkles

1) How many weeks are you? 7!
2) How are you feeling? Great, just got a cold
3) Any appointments or tests this week? Nope
4) Rants/Raves/Questions? This is my 6th pregnancy and so far a great one, I'm happy all the time and no nausea!

SwtAnana

@VLillyV I do find that thebump app and Ovia are good ones to stick with. I haven't really started using the journal aspect because I'm so nervous. If Thursday's ultrasound is good, I will start using the journal feature

Uhlease13

Yay Tuesday! 

1) How many weeks are you? 5

2) How are you feeling? Pretty good. Feeling tired today but who knows if it's pregnancy or just normal tiredness. Boobs are still sore/heavy/sensitive, but that's about it. 

3) Any appointments or tests this week? No have to wait until march 3

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Not at the moment. If I make it past first tri then I'll have some raves! 

HeartItRaces

1) How many weeks are you? 6 weeks today   
2) How are you feeling? Generally pretty good. Started feeling some dizziness and nausea this week that seems to come in waves. Also having major bloating that makes me look 20 weeks pregnant.
3) Any appointments or tests this week? Not until 2/28 (appointment twins @VLillyV )!
4) Rants/Raves/Questions? I've been getting a terribly itchy hive like rash for over a week now. Primary dr said it could be atopic dermatitis of pregnancy or just an allergic rxn. Following up with a dermatologist tomorrow and hoping to get more answers then. It got so bad that I had to take benedryl and Claritin a few days for relief. Even though these meds were ok'd by my ob, I can't help but worry about any effect it could have on a developing fetus so early in the pregancy..and the internet has only fed those concerns   

@VLillyV I'm also a big fan of sprout and ovia for development updates.
@ZukiWife good luck with the ultrasound tonight! Fingers crossed for a happy appointment!

WindyBreeze

1) How many weeks are you? 7weeks 
2) How are you feeling? Happy as I little troll.. breasts still a little sore, nauseous, but I can eat when food is present. Doesn't even matter if u already ate
3) Any appointments or tests this week? No the 20th
4) Rants/Raves/Questions?When will the cramping end? And I'm always pissed

flgirl20134

1) How many weeks are you? 5 today 

2) How are you feeling? Good, overall, but I have been getting waves of nausea and exhaustion and my boobs are so sore I can't get comfortable at night. I'm not sleeping well. 

3) Any appointments or tests this week? Nope, my next appointment is the 24th. I finally got my HCG results from last week. They couldn't see the sac yet at 4+2, but my HCG was 1128, which they said is good. I'm not sure since there is nothing to compare it to. The nurse said she thought it was weird they didn't have me come back for a second blood test to see if it increase. Does that seem weird? 

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? My boss is pissing me off, but it might be my pregnancy rage lol. DH has a man cold and I have been feeling like I'm coming down with it. 

@mispanda mine were faint too, but I think the dye on the pack of WONFOS was light, maybe it's the dye in your tests? If you are turning a digital I would try not to worry about it. 

@VlillyV I have What to expect and pregnancy+. They aren't amazing, but they are free and have s video each week. 

@swtanna I feel you, can't wait for first trip to end

I was a day off on my LMP when I first started, so my due date changed to 10/3! So here I am on Tuesday ticker change!

1) How many weeks are you?
7 weeks today! 
2) How are you feeling?
"All day sickness" but have only puked once so far. All foods taste gross or super bland. My sense of smell is off the charts - everything smells terrible, everything! Sore boobs, but what else is new? Exhausted all the time ... I should be napping while DD is asleep but Bumping instead
3) Any appointments or tests this week?
None this week. Had my initial phone appointment with the nurse last week. My first appointment with ultrasound and all the other fun stuff is on 2/24. Can't wait!
4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
Rave - DH has been amazing, picking up the slack and doing bedtime with DD every night. 

Rant - restricted caffeine intake while pregnant, with an almost 3 year old running around, is cruel and unusual punishment! 

MamaStreeter

1) How many weeks are you? 5 weeks! 
2) How are you feeling? Some moments of nausea, my boobs are killing me, esp when my 16 month old son nurses!! 
3) Any appointments or tests this week? Nope, first appointment scheduled for March 8 >:( 
4) Rants/Raves/Questions? I had a miscarriage in November so I am just praying, praying, praying that we get to have a healthy and normal and boring pregnancy with this one!!

@MamaStreeter I had a miscarriage end of October and have my first appt on March 7th!. Good luck!
