Upcoming appointments this week? Midwife on Monday, NT scan on Tuesday!!
Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? The nausea seems to officially be abating, and I'm doing the happy dance. I even made it to the gym the last two days, something I have barely been able to do once a week lately.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Ready for the weekend. Annoyed that the beautiful weather (I wish I could have taken a sick day today, but can't due to the previously mentioned appts next week) will disappear today, just in time for the weekend. I'm also ready to leave my toddler with the in-laws until he gets over the molar induced mood swings he's going through right now. Please send back my sweet baby boy, mmkay?
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure? Reading. And really good chocolate. I'm not a snob about pretty much anything, but I do appreciate all sorts of books, and good chocolate. Or bad chocolate. Just chocolate these days.
Baby is the size of a lemon or a peach depending on which app I use
I don't have an appointment this week not due to go back until 3/10 at 15 weeks.
Symptoms wise I am not experiencing morning sickeness anymore which is awesome since I was super sick for a couple weeks. Just hungry all the time now and some aches and pains here and there.
No really rants today, it's 64 degrees and partly sunny so that's nice to experience. Mine and hubby's anniversary is coming up on the 7th so looking forward to that!
My my guilty pleasure is reading! I could do it all day if given the chance! For some reason MC series have been my weakness lately!

Upcoming appointments this week? Next appointment is 3/10 at 12 weeks.
Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? My legs have been hurting a lot this week. Also experiencing what I believe is round ligament pain.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Really ready for the weekend. It's a shame that I will probably sleep through most of it.
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure? I really like bad movies. Made for TV crap with bad acting and plot holes. Thinking about seeing the new 50 Shades movie for this reason. The first one was almost bad enough for me.
Upcoming appointments this week? Nope not until mid march, but I do have to go get my blood drawn soon. Just the regular testing plus they want to check my thyroid.
Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? The waves of nausea are coming less but when they hit they are more severe. Not really anything else new except for some headaches. No new cravings yet but I'm sure there will be in time!
Rants/Raves/Questions? Rant- DH suddenly deciding he needs to start up a side business that would require purchase of a truck and a trailer... dude you are already having a hard time juggling work, the fire department and now volunteering with the EMS base. He wants to go to paramedic school after the fire academy is over. And now a side business? Let's focus on buying the stuff we need for this baby instead of a new truck and trailer. Sometimes I wonder what his thought process is like. He just sent quite a good amount of money down the drain with his predator trapping idea. Granted he did help out his rancher buddy while they were calving and get a couple bobcats and coyotes but he didn't sell the pelts like he said he would and now he's not even trapping anymore. So that was a waste.

March 1st! We finally get to hear little nuggets heart beat!
Any new symptoms or changes or cravings?
I have been sleeping absolutely terrible this past week! Nausea is starting to taper off and getting more energy back. I was able to workout 5 days this week.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
When is the no sleeping on your back rule come into effect? That is my most comfortable sleep position right now GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure? Eating chocolate ALL the chocolate! Also watching pretty much every Real Housewives series there is on Bravo.
No upcoming appts. Our gender results are in, but we won't find out until March 18th at a small reveal party.
No new symptoms. Still tired, definitely feeling the baby belly moving up but it's not a visible "pop" yet.
One rant: I'm sick and tired of water already.

Upcoming appointments this week? nope. Four long weeks. NT Scan 3/21 and check up 3/22.
Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? nausea is being held at bay mostly if I eat every 30 minutes or so. Still so tired.
Rants/Raves/Questions? my parents are coming to town next weekend and have offered to watch DD for the weekend so we can have a getaway. DD is 3.5 and I've never left her overnight. I really need to do this, I'm just not feeling so great physically that I am worried it will be a wasted trip. Hopefully by next weekend I'll feel up to it because I'd hate to pass up this opportunity!
GTKY: What is your guilty pleasure? Right now, sleeping. I haven't been able to read a book without falling asleep in about a year, otherwise that would be my biggest guilt pleasure. Also, the Bachelor and Vampire Diaries.

Haha at least your husband is doing something that could potentially generate money for you! My DH is shopping for a Porsche because his coworkers all have one. I'm all like "yep, that'll be practical with a 4 year old and twins." He's definitely having a midlife crisis and I'm just letting him go with it for now. When he starts getting really serious about it I'm going to have to lay down the law.
I was the baby of the month with both of my first two kids and HATED seeing everyone else hit milestones before me. I felt like there was a "been there, done that, we've all moved on" feel when I finally hit milestones. I definitely feel for you!

Upcoming appointments this week? Ten week appt on Thursday, then off to get my blood work done.
Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? I had blurry vision yesterday...might have been dehydrated. It's happened in my other pregnancies. Food in the morning still sounds gross, except strawberries. I want all the strawberries!
Rants/Raves/Questions? I hate getting blood work done...I'm a fainter. Also a slow bleeder and have hard-to-find veins. So they tend not to go terribly well. I'm not looking forward to this week.
