Hope it is okay I started this, I wasn't sure if there were any assigned threads.

1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 

4w - size of a poopy seed

2) How are you feeling?
Fatigue is setting in hard.  But other than that still pretty good.  FX that MS goes easy on me again.

3) Weekly Appointments?

I'm planning on calling today to see if I can get in for a blood draw and a second this week to make sure my beta's are doubling.

4) Questions or Concerns?

nope

Hi @becausescience!!!!! Excited to see you here!!!!  

1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 
5wks 2 days. It's as big as a dot snail. 

2) How are you feeling?
Fat, bloated, sweaty, and sore but it's all worth it! 

3) Weekly Appointments?

I just got my betas done again yesterday, hoping I hit 3,000 so I can get a brief respite from having blood drawn every single week. 

4) Questions or Concerns?

Not today! 

5) GTKY: What is your favorite snack food? (borrowed from Monday )
Spicy chips!!

@muggle621 Thanks!  But.. did I mess up the EDDs for Tuesday?

muggle621

I don't THINK so though I somehow missed the EDD part so I actually should not have posted!! Oops. 

becausescience

@muggle621 Oh, that's ok. Will you get your new betas today? 

muggle621

@becausescience I think so! I went in later than usual so I am not 100% sure. Have you had any betas done yet? I see where you are calling about them today but will those be your first or second? 

becausescience

@muggle621 I haven't had any yet. I wanted to wait until my period was actually late to call.

1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 

5 weeks and 6 days! The size of a dot snail!

2) How are you feeling?
Tired, a little bit of an upset stomach

3) Weekly Appointments?

July 24th!

4) Questions or Concerns?

I just turned 40 and am having my first baby, excited and nervous!

5) GTKY: What is your favorite snack food? (borrowed from Monday )
Not too much at the moment. Crackers mostly 

DDRRT1982

1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 6 weeks today and I have no clue. 

2) How are you feeling?  Lethargic and with legit morning sickness.  This has been the worst for me.  I hate complaining, but I really do feel like crap. 

3) Weekly Appointments?  I haven't had one since my beta.  I go for my ultrasound on 7/24.

4) Questions or Concerns?  My only concern is energy and getting through the next few weeks feeling like crap.  I have four kids and am working a lot more recently.  I hope I start to feel a little better soon.  My progesterone was on the upper end of normal and am I am sure is probably why I feel more lethargic.

5) GTKY: What is your favorite snack food? (borrowed from Monday )   I love popcorn.  Tender white to be specific.

1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 
5 weeks today, size of an apple seed according to the app

2) How are you feeling?
Great, so far. No MS or not really any symptoms other than fatigue and bloating, which is a little worrying. But I didn't have any MS with DS either so this time around I'm not quite as nervous about it. 

3) Weekly Appointments?
First appointment and scan next Monday! We were out of town for the last two weeks so I wasn't able to go in earlier. 

4) Questions or Concerns?
Like I mentioned, generally the lack of symptoms makes me nervous sometimes, but when I remind myself it was exactly like this with DS (and everything was totally normal with him) I feel better. 

5) GTKY: What is your favorite snack food? (borrowed from Monday )
Good Thins White Cheddar Potato Snacks - omg I'll end up going through a whole box before I realize it. Really I love any snacks involving cheese - Cheez-its, mini mozzarella balls, Parmesan crisps, etc. Last pregnancy I developed an aversion to cheese 2nd trimester onward, so we'll see how long my cheese love lasts this time around

becausescience

@gazelle319 I didn't get terrible MS with my DD either, just some light nausea, but my fatigue more than made up for it.  I totally get worrying about symptoms. And those cheese crackers sound amazing.

) How far along are you? How big is baby?  just got a BFP today.

2) How are you feeling? normal

3) Weekly Appointments? none

4) Questions or Concerns? I'm 35 and wonder what the difference will be this time around

5) GTKY: What is your favorite snack food? (borrowed from Monday     chocolate and tostitos

lifeisbetteronthered

1) Weeks/size: 5 weeks, Apple seed
2) Symptoms: not really yet.  But oddly all coffee tasted "funny" today (tried multiple different brands, including my usual), which would be a horrible aversion for me to develop.
3) Appointments: none this week, but I've scheduled my appointments with my Ob and hematologist so I'll start getting busy soon.
4) Q/C: none at the moment
5)GTKY: white cheese popcorn

becausescience

@lifeisbetteronthered Oh no! A coffee aversion would be the worst! Good luck with your appointments!

2) How are you feeling?
Just a little more tired that usual. 

3) Weekly Appointments?

July 26th!

4) Questions or Concerns?

It took a while for me to get a positive. It wasnt until a few days after my missed period. I'm just ready for that appointment to calm my nerves!

5) GTKY: What is your favorite snack food? (borrowed from Monday )
Baked goods are my weakness!

1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 
5 Weeks, 0 days

2) How are you feeling?
TIRED!

3) Weekly Appointments?
First appointment is not until August 21

4) Questions or Concerns?
Not really! Except that I can't find the "upload belly picture" feature on the Ovia app:)

5) GTKY: What is your favorite snack food? (borrowed from Monday )
No cravings, eating the same as usual.

Staciefacie

1) How far along are you? How big is baby? 7 weeks

2) How are you feeling?  Gassy and sore all over. 

3) Weekly Appointments? None this week. Trying to patiently wait for aug 10th. 

4) Questions or Concerns? I'm concerned how well my back and my hip will hold up to a third pregnancy and labor. I did my last Labor with out pain meds, while I enjoyed the freedom and alertness afterwards I felt like I was 1000x more sore than with my first even though the epi from my first is what ruined my back. 

5) GTKY: What is your favorite snack food? So far my favorite snack is chips.. spicy, BBQ, salt n vinegar, you name the chip, im probably eating it lol.
