    1) How many weeks are you? 11 
    2) How are you feeling?     Great! Still anxious to get out of the first trimester. I'm so nervous to tell work and then have something happen. I want to wait a few more weeks to tell but my friend at work told me I'm starting to show so I don't know if I'll be able to hide it much longer. Looks like I'll just be wearing super baggy clothes lol.
    3) Any appointments or tests this week?     Nope, won't have a appointment for 4 1/2 weeks.
    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?     My back is killing me. I can't be standing for more then an hour without slowing waaaaay down.
    5) GTKY: What do you hate and love about your pregnancy?     I love everything except the fatigue which has been going away. I'm not the kind of person that likes to sit on the couch all the time but I've had to the past 2 months. It's been great feeling surges of energy the past week!

    @kncollins09 yes! I think my favorite thing is seeing my DH so excited to have this baby. It took us a year and 4 months to get here, so I can only imagine what it feels like for you after trying for years! So happy for you!

    @Maksim's Mom Loss makes it so hard to feel like it's real <3

    How many weeks are you?  
    12
    2) How are you feeling?
    Good, just tired.
    3) Any appointments or tests this week?
    nope
    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?
    Why do people feel it's okay to ask if a pregnancy was planned?  None of your damn business.  
    5) GTKY: What do you hate and love about your pregnancy?  
    I hate the intrusive questions and I love the fact that I'm actually starting to look pregnant now!

    1) How many weeks are you?  13 weeks!
    2) How are you feeling?     Still tired and grumpy off and on but I don't feel like I want to puke 90% of the time anymore so that's wonderful
    3) Any appointments or tests this week?     Nope, nothing until the 20th
    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?     Not looking forward to DH going on a business trip this week, plus both of my girls are getting sick. So I'll be alone with 2 sick preschoolers who most likely won't be able to go to school (so stuck in the house 24/7) for the next 4 days. 
    5) GTKY: What do you hate and love about your pregnancy?     Love feeling movement so I can't wait for that to come and not a huge fan of the 20 weeks of progesterone injections I'll be getting this time around.

    1) How many weeks are you? 11 weeks
    2) How are you feeling?     Fine for the most part, still super tired.
    3) Any appointments or tests this week?     None this week.
    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?     I did nothing yesterday but read a book and play a MMO.  Hubby took care of everything and even cut the grass.  I choose wisely.
    5) GTKY: What do you hate and love about your pregnancy?     As of right now hating that I have gas, pimples and am emotional.  Love that it is a secret, very few people know.

    1) How many weeks are you? 11 weeks
    2) How are you feeling?     So super sick. I don't know I got a stomach bug on top of it all or what but the last 3 days I have hardly been able to keep any food down, or if I do keep it down I spend the next few hours wishing I'd just be sick. 
    3) Any appointments or tests this week?     Nope.
    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?     We are thinking about getting our own doplar, I know DH and I would like to be able to listen and I think the kids would find it cool as well. Does anyone else have one? Is there one you'd recommend? @Maksim's Mom  are you using one? I'm a little worried that because I'm overweight to start it will be harder for us to use successfully. 
    5) GTKY: What do you hate and love about your pregnancy?     I'm so sick of feeling sick. I just want to wake up and get some stuff done and eat a meal without thinking I'm going to be sick. I love seeing how excited the older kids are about getting a sibling. My DD has really stepped up, she's only 6 but she's so into everything and helping with anything she can.

    1) How many weeks are you? 12 weeks

    2) How are you feeling?     Starting to feel better. I've got insomnia, but I'm able to take my sea bands off now!

    3) Any appointments or tests this week?     My first pre-natal appointment is tomorrow morning!  Finally!

    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?     Nothing this week 

    5) GTKY: What do you hate and love about your pregnancy?     I love that I'm starting to show. I typically have a belly pooch anyway, and I feel a lot more confident when I have a reason for it to be there!  I hate that my mom loses all sense of personal space when I'm pregnant. We're not a touchy-feely family, so her being in my space a lot bothers me.

    @GenTK I found a great one online at walmart. Im plus sized too and it works great. Here's the link 

    https://www.walmart.com/ip/Easy-Home-SweetieSong-Blue-Pocket-Fetal-Doppler-100S6-Baby-Heart-Monitor-Kit-4-pc/50350686?wmlspartner=wlpa&selectedSellerId=0&adid=22222222228039905192&wl0=&wl1=g&wl2=m&wl3=90994652912&wl4=pla-122821512752&wl5=9013038&wl6=&wl7=&wl8=&wl9=pla&wl10=8175035&wl11=online&wl12=50350686&wl13=&veh=sem

    1) How many weeks are you?  15 weeks
    2) How are you feeling?      Much better every day!  Feeling like myself is really nice.
    3) Any appointments or tests this week?      Nothing until the 17th
    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?      Everyone seems to have opinions about everything when you're pregnant...especially when you don't ask.  I appreciate advice so much, but I am starting to feel SO overwhelmed by it all.
    5) GTKY: What do you hate and love about your pregnancy?      I love the feeling of excitement that DH and I have.  I hate not being able to wear all my normal spring/summer clothes!  I like those so much more than my winter clothes haha

    @GenTK I would highly recommend the Womb Music Heartbeat Baby Monitor by Wusic. It's different from a typical monitor in that it uses headphones rather than a doppler type instrument. It comes with a port to use two headphones, included. So you and SO can listen together. It's so wonderful and I find the heartbeat every time. It works well for me and I'm not a petite type. :) hope you get something that works for you

    @VLillyV I love my Wusic monitor! I have bad anxiety and listen to the heartbeat almost every day. One day at a time...I hope I don't rely so much on it. But right now it keeps me positive.  
    Me: 30 DH: 32
    BFP#1: 9/9/2014 DS born 4/7/15
    BFP#2: 6/16/2016 MC/D&C: 7/29/2016
    BFP#3: 10/14/2016 (fingers crossed for a sticky bean)

    @kdel921 Thanks- I'm hoping they work, then it will all be worth it! This will be my first experience with them so I'm praying they work. Just really hoping we can avoid the NICU this time.

    1) How many weeks are you? 12
    2) How are you feeling? Dealing with a legit cold/cough so not very good :(
    3) Any appointments or tests this week? Yes!!! NT scan this afternoon! 
    4) Rants/Raves/Questions? None
    5) GTKY: What do you hate and love about your pregnancy? Not being able to take anything for this cold - I'm so congested. I love that DS is going to be a big brother. He was at my appt last week and pointed to the US screen and said baby! Love it.

    Mine is a day late...sorry!

    1) How many weeks are you? 12 + 1!
    2) How are you feeling?     Pretty good. I've puked a couple of times in the past week, but overall the Diclegis is helping a ton with MS. I also had a little bit of extra energy this weekend.
    3) Any appointments or tests this week?     Nope, not til the end of the month.
    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?     It feels so good to finally be public with this pregnancy. I even had one of my students approach me after class and say, "A little birdy told me you were pregnant!" So fun!
    5) GTKY: What do you hate and love about your pregnancy?     I hate feeling sick and having no energy. It's making it really hard to get things done (e.g., my dissertation proposal). But I love that I'm growing a human! Haha it really is amazing.

    I'm a few days late... sorry

    1) How many weeks are you?     13
    2) How are you feeling?     This by far has been the worst week. I spent all weekend on the couch feeling like I had a hangover trying to sleep it off. Thanks to google I found out that I'm dehydrated. Apparently I was putting out more fluids than I was taking in so now I'm uping my water intake and just making bathroom runs more often. Joy. 
    3) Any appointments or tests this week?     Zilch
    4) Rants/Raves/Questions?     Super inspired by all you ladies with kids who are still holding it together during this time!
    5) GTKY: What do you hate and love about your pregnancy?     I hate feeling like shit. I love the way my SO touches my belly and when i feel like shit and i know i look horrendous yet he looks at me with this look in his eyes of pure love.
