1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 6 weeks - my sweet pea is a sweet pea

2. How are you feeling? - OK.  Actually happy to be feeling a little nauseous today, which sounds insane but it's what is KEEPING me sane while I wait for my appointment!

3. Any appointments next week? - none next week =(

4. Rants, raves, questions? - So I guess I'm going to have to tell my parents this weekend because I will be in a bathing suit and my Mom will notice my bloated belly right away.  I don't really want to tell for a couple more weeks, but do I have a choice?  lol.  I'm about to try every single suit on to determine which one is the best disguise with a good cover up when I'm not in the water and hope for the best

5. GTKY: What's your favorite thing about summer? - Going to my parent's house down the Cape, eating delicious seafood, and going to the beach!

@citygirl17 we are due date buddies  and I went to the beach yesterday with my friend and our daughters and kept my shorts and t shirt on because I was too uncomfortable in a bathing suit lol my friend knows already anyway but I feel huge already and I only put our feet in with my DD she's only a year.... If youre uncomfortable and don't want her to know quite yet you could always wear a cover up or keep a t shirt on.

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby?- 7 weeks - a blueberry 

2. How are you feeling?- Today has been the best day in a long time.  I'm usually extremely nauseous.  I haven't wanted coffee or anything but water in a while.  The exhaustion has got a lot better.  Although I'm up for hours at a time in the middle of the night.  I get terrible headaches.  With DD, I had no symptoms.  I felt wonderful so I'm still getting used to these symptoms.  Maybe it's a boy this time


3. Any appointments next week? Aug 7th

4. Rants, raves, questions? - I feel like maternity clothes will be out sooner this time.

5. GTKY: What's your favorite thing about summer?- relaxing at home

1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 
8 weeks
2. How are you feeling? 
Pretty good, a little nauseous and super tired but overall ok. 
3. Any appointments next week? 
I had an apt yesterday with my midwife and got an ultrasound. I saw 2.0, heard it's heart beat and was told everything looks good! Due date is still 3/2. 
4. Rants, raves, questions? 
I'm pretty bummed that I still can't work out due to the bleeding and progesterone issues I had. I also can't have sex yet, but DH is more bummed about that than me! I have to wait until 12 weeks for both to be safe. They said everything looks good with baby, but they want to be on the safe side of things I think I might go crazy with no working out for 4 more weeks! 
5. GTKY: What's your favorite thing about summer?
I love fishing! I grew up fishing with my dad and brother and have continued doing it into adulthood. In Colorado there are a million places to go fly fishing and it's the best part of summer for me. We went camping last weekend in the small town where my little brother lives and is a fly fishing guide so I got a good amount of fishing in, but I need to go a few more times this year! Plus I'm way better than DH and feel like a bad ass!

@jerseygirl9090 I can't believe they won't do one until 12 weeks!! That seems so late!!!

@jerseygirl9090 Hi date buddy!  Yes, I intend to bring a good cover up.  Or just keep a t-shirt on.  I'm very pale and burn easily so I could probably get away with doing this without too much suspicion!  

@Kit&Kat it's actually pretty standard to not have one until 12 weeks unless there is a complication / history of past complications.   I believe my first one will be at 12 weeks as well, then another at 18 weeks for an anatomy scan.  With my daughter I was also followed by MFM so I got some extra growth scans.  Unless this happens again I'm expecting my number of ultrasounds to be pretty minimal =(

@kitandcat yeah I know it drives me insane it was same way with my DD.
