Saturday is definitely my favorite day anymore . Happy ticker-change day, ladies!

@mlasenburg GL at your appointment tomorrow!  Are you currently being treated or waiting to find out what they do from here?


1) How many weeks are you? 9!

2) How are you feeling?  Still tired, nausea all day but tolerable with Diclegis, sore boobs and hips, so thankful for all of it.

3) Any appointments or tests this week?  Next week at 10+4

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? H got to hear the heartbeat by Doppler last night and that was such a sweet and reassuring boost to the week.

1) How many weeks are you? 9 weeks 

2) How are you feeling? blah! Tired of complaining about being sick, but it's my reality unfortunately. 

3) Any appointments or tests this week? no 

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? please, please, please body! Snap back! 

5) GTKY: Do you have any tattoos? What is the meaning behind them? none. Never wanted one on my body forever. I constantly have these dreams where I get one, and start crying cause I want it off, and it won't come off. Some of my friends have full sleeves, and looking at them actually gives me anxiety. I just imagine that being my arm and wanting to see pure plain skin, and not being able to get away from the huge design plastered on me.

@keriflores have an amazing date night! I'm in major need for one of those! Nothing sounds good to me right now, but I'm counting down the days until I get some cravings too. Enjoy!

I have 1. I have a tattoo that says beauty and it has a hose coming from it, and this on my stomach.  I suffered from my insecurities for so long that I needed something to remind me that I'm beautiful.

1) How many weeks are you? 10

2) How are you feeling? Better this week. I figured out that water is really helpful with my nausea. Well, that and chocolate chip pancakes, apparently haha.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? not this week

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? This is baby #2 and I have so much more gas this time around. TMI, I know, but it's painful. I am like a walking whoopie cushion haha.

5) GTKY: Do you have any tattoos? What is the meaning behind them? No tattoos. Have always been too much of a 'fraidy cat.

1) How many weeks are you? 10 weeks

2) How are you feeling? Feeling great! I feel like i can't trust it.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? no

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? I am completely unmotivated to do anything. Work out, clean, work! none of it. I need to get back on my game!

5) GTKY: Do you have any tattoos? What is the meaning behind them? Yes, I have 6. My first is on my lower right hip, its a treble clef with a rose wrapped around it. I was a music major. The second is an outline of an angel on my left foot with the irish flag colors going through it (pretty self explanatory). My 3rd is another music theme, one of Plato's quotes about Music and Rhythm. It's on my lower back towards my right hip. My 4th is a tattoo my sister and i designed. It's the celtic symbol for the sister goddess. We both got them in our own styles. Mine is a water color tattoo on my upper left shoulder. My 5th (and its not finished yet) is a full thigh sleeve on my left leg. It's an elephant where it's ears are butterfly wings. For me it symbolizes strength & beauty. I've had to pause the progress on the tattoo for now since I'm growing a human, but I plan to finish it next summer. My most recent tattoo was sort of "let get a friendship tattoo" whim with my best friend. He and I have been friends since we were kids, did theatre together, have produced shows together, and are literally best friends. We had the word "Eden" tattooed on the back of our right elbow in my handwriting. The meaning is significant to our friendship b/c he has been through so much in the past year that I reminded him of the Garden of Eden and how good they had it until they made a mistake. And yet, they survived, and so will we. It meant so much to him that he wanted to get the tattoo together. I was happy to do it. He will most likely be the God father of our LO

Hey ladies, I just realized that my due date is the 21st so it falls on this ticker change, but I seem to be 8w1d, or always 1d after an even week. Should I be in Fridays ticker change instead? Sorry if its a dumb question 

1) How many weeks are you? 8w1d

2) How are you feeling? Everything seems to be bugging my stomach today, but I really only want a cheeseburger right now, even though I know it will bug my stomach.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? Just graduated from my RE last week, so I have my first OB appointment on Friday and I'm so excited!

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Today I experienced an Ice Pick Headache for the first time in my life, and it was so painful and scary. It only lasted 5 seconds, but I could barely see and it felt like someone drilling a nail in my head. Apparently if you have migraines then you are more prone to them, and I have hormonal migraines 1-2 times per month. Hoping it never happens again. 

5) GTKY: Do you have any tattoos? What is the meaning behind them? I have one small star tattoo, and it was one of those "young and dumb" moments. I was 18 and sad from a breakup and wanted to do something stupid with a girlfriend, and thats what we came up with. Definitely wouldn't mind having it removed. The edges have softened over the years, so it looks more like a giant, jagged black mole on my hip/stomach. Sexy.

@emwj10187 your tattoos sound beautiful! I love the significance of each one. I remember someone on this board the other day telling a funny story about their half finished tattoo, not sure if it was you but it cracked me up.

@ssmama34217 Oh man I hear you on the gas! I may have blamed it on the dogs a few times today. 

@virginiaham So glad you guys were able to hear the heartbeat on doppler! I'm still contemplating getting one because so many people say its hard to find sometimes, and I feel like I would do it wrong and spaz myself out.

@keriflores Have fun on your date tonight!!

Hi ladies! Late to the party here today. Just spent 12 hours in the car driving to my moms house in Arizona for the week. Excited to be here but it was a long day in the car!

1) How many weeks are you? 9

2) How are you feeling? Pretty good! I feel like my energy is slowly coming back and more foods are sounding tolerable. I'm also thankful to be at my moms where I know she will cook the whole week and I won't have to worry about it.

3) Any appointments or tests this week? Nope.

4) Rants/Raves/Questions? So, funny story. I got a Facebook message from my FIL last night asking me why I had liked a page on FB called "Trying to get Pregnant"....uh, apparently I had liked this page somehow (I blame either DD playing on my phone, or those stupid "suggested" pages that pop up and I accidentally "liked" it). I really didn't know what to say because 1) it was slightly awkward and 2) I had to tell him no, we aren't trying to get him off my back. Just makes me wonder how many of my other Facebook friends saw that I had liked this page. Oh well. We broke the news to my mom today, and plan to tell the rest of the family in the next week or two. Anyway, I guess this is a rant that I just needed to get off my chest lol

5) GTKY: Do you have any tattoos? What is the meaning behind them? None here!

2) How are you feeling?

None but I do want to get one eventually.
