1st Tri Check-in Week of July 9

kaseycoco

Hi everyone! I know it's Sunday, but I wanted to get this thread started before another week got away from me. I'm new at leading the board, so if I added you by mistake just tag me and let me know!

Welcome to those who are new to this board!! 

This is a weekly check-in for those in their 1st trimester: weeks 1 through the end of week 13. We've all gone through a lot to get to this point, so congratulations and best of luck to all of you over the next several months! 

1. How far along are you? What is your EDD?  

2. Which oh-so-lovely pregnancy symptoms are you having?  

3. When is your next appointment?  

4. Anything else you'd like to share?  

QOTW:

1. What did you do to celebrate the 4th of July?

Note: When you graduate up to the 2nd Trimester (woo hoo!!), write a quick post letting us know you are leaving. I want to keep the list updated, but don't want to delete names prematurely!                

Mommies to be:  

*If you wrote an estimate on your EDD and it changed, just tag me when it changes so that I can update. Thanks ladies!

1. How far along are you? What is your EDD?  

I'm now 6 weeks 6 days, EDD 2/27/18

2. Which oh-so-lovely pregnancy symptoms are you having?  

Right now just fatigue and decreased appetite. I'm waiting for the nausea to kick in, but keeping my FX that it stays away as long as possible!

3. When is your next appointment?  

This Wednesday I have my next US appointment with my RE. Last week I saw and heard a little flicker of a heartbeat. 

4. Anything else you'd like to share?  

QOTW:

1. What did you do to celebrate the 4th of July?

I just went to a BBQ with my family. I was really tired and wasn't able to stay out for fireworks this year, but I did set off some sparkers at my parent's house

2. Which oh-so-lovely pregnancy symptoms are you having?  

Still not much other than fatigue and frequent urination 

3. When is your next appointment?  

July 25th

4. Anything else you'd like to share?  

I am getting so excited for 12 weeks to share the news! I'm going Pinterest crazy trying to find announcement ideas  

QOTW:

1. What did you do to celebrate the 4th of July?

Went to my cousins and had a BBQ with fireworks. Nothing too eventful.

1. How far along are you? What is your EDD? 

11 weeks, 5 days. Due Date is 1/25/18

2. Which oh-so-lovely pregnancy symptoms are you having?  

Nausea is still 24/7 but i'm having more and more "good days" where i can eat more than just wheat thins! Fatigue is still making me want to nap all day long.

3. When is your next appointment?  

On Monday 7/17 we have the NT scan! Looking forward to see how the twins have grown since we saw them last!

4. Anything else you'd like to share?  

We jumped the gun and announced on FB last week at 11 weeks. We felt like it was close enough to the 12 weeks that it would be ok, and honestly, it's starting to be pretty obvious that I'm pregnant anyways...

QOTW:

1. What did you do to celebrate the 4th of July? 

We went to my parents in RI for the long weekend but had to go back home on the 3rd cause DH had to work a 24 hour shift on the 4th. It was a nice weekend but the nausea decided that it wanted to celebrate too, so I spent a lot of the time on the couch.

@angelaag how fun to share the news soon! Let us know what you decide on doing. I love getting ideas
@caseyw8784 sorry the nausea is hitting you so hard, I've heard it eases up around 12 weeks (not sure if that's true for twins, too) but I hope that's the case for you! How did you announce on FB?
