1. How many weeks are you? 6 today! That gets me past my first loss milestone. One more week and I'll get past the second. 

2. How are you feeling? I feel fine. Especially in the mornings. By the evening I'm miserable but right now I feel great. 

3. Any funny or crazy things happen last week? DH and I went to a wedding for his best friend. We know that they are hoping to get pregnant right away and he told us that while they were at the alter they were discussing how he was going to get her pregnant that night. The fact that they discussed this in whispers when we were all watching cracks me up. 

4. What activity if any did you do in high school? I was in drama and I was on the debate team.

@sparkymcgeee Hope you were able to enjoy the wedding with no yucky pg symptoms.


TW-loss mentioned

1. How many weeks are you?
7 weeks 4 days.  I lost my first at 6 weeks and my second pg ended in a mmc between 7-8 weeks. When I reach my 10 week US with a healthy heartbeat my second milestone will be achieved. (The first milestone was the sac in the right place. My first pg was ectopic.) Third time's a charm!

2. How are you feeling?
When I am able to sit around and do nothing all day I only feel a little crappy.  When I have to move around and be a teacher all day I am hit with all day MS in the form of motion sickness.  I don't puke which is good because, well children everywhere but I also never get the feeling to go away.  I will confess I felt so shitty Friday night that when I finally did puke I was all hallelujah.  I felt great the rest of the night.  

3. Any funny or crazy things happen last week?
Crazy-Last week we heard the HB and that was the first healthy HB we have every heard.  I was 6 weeks 4 days and it was 125 right in the middle of normal.  We are hoping for a huge jump for our 10 week apt.  

4. What activity if any did you do in high school? 
I was captain of the volleyball team.

I am currently eating french fries because I feel like crap, so why not make it worse?

@sparkymcgeee - I hope. You had fun at the wedding. Sorry that you are so miserable at night time but I am glad you are feeling fine the rest of the day
@Justsuzie - So glad you got to hear the heartbeat - that is the most beautiful sound in the world 

1. How many weeks are you? 5 weeks and 1 day

2. How are you feeling? It's kind of a mixed bag for me. Sometimes I feel great all day, sometimes I have on and off nausea, and some days I feel like crap all day. I am nervous about this upcoming week. I will be back at work tomorrow after having last week off. I have gotten use to just hanging around the house. I am worried about dealing with MS, being tired, and mostly hiding the bloat (which is way out of control right now)

3. Any funny or crazy things happen last week? We have been dealing with the aftermath of Irma. We spent most of the week without power and now there is another storm we are watching and praying it stays out at sea.

4. What activity if any did you do in high school? I was in drama and a community service club

3. Any funny or crazy things happen last week?

A lot of sports!

roomsu

1. How many weeks are you?
6 exactly today! @sparkymcgeee Did you have a small mental celebration today? It feels so great to be here. 
2. How are you feeling?
Tired, but otherwise great (*tw which is so scary after a loss)
3. Any funny or crazy things happen last week?
We went to school for 1 day, my kind of week! It was supposed to be a field trip that is now rescheduled for this coming week. We also lost power so we did a lot of fort building and "camping". 
4. What activity if any did you do in high school? 
I did yearbook and newspaper. I was on soccer for a second, but wasn't nearly good enough. 

roomsu

@justsuzie when is the next time you get to see/hear the peanut? I am counting down the days  it's such a magical moment. 

justsuzie

@roomsu I go in at 10 weeks (2 weeks from now).  I refused the weekly early ultrasounds because they cause me more anxiety than relieve it.   BTW my pg symptoms didn't hot until 7 weeks.  I felt great up until then!

zaclina

1. How many weeks are you?
7 weeks

2. How are you feeling?
Nauseated.  I want all the food to hold it together

3. Any funny or crazy things happen last week?
Bday party w family.   It was lovely

4. What activity if any did you do in high school? 
Swim, yearbook

sparkymcgeee

@roomsu Yes! This first loss milestone is important but my last pregnancy made it further and I still had a loss so I need to get through this week and see Bean on the US next week. Then I'll relax a little more. Then when I make it 12 weeks. Then when I feel it move (I'm thinking 16 or 17). Then when that baby is in my arms.

Thinking of all you ladies and your milestones.  FX!  
@glitzandglitter sorry about the next storm, hopefully it stays away!

1. How many weeks are you?
6 + 5
2. How are you feeling?
Like total recycled shit.  Tired, dizzy, nauseated, back pain, constipation, nauseated, sore boobs, nauseated, cramping, oh yeah, did I mention nauseated?  
3. Any funny or crazy things happen last week?
We ripped up our living room carpet, so our living room and dining rooms are a total disaster area.  Also met with our realtor to work on a plan to get our house on the market.  Lots of craziness ahead.
4. What activity if any did you do in high school? 
Choir and swing choir, musicals and plays, and cheerleading.  And I was also in Flags.  It was a really small school

thedawkterswife

2. Pregnant. Bloated, bitchy, and boobs for days. 
3. I don't think so. Which is a good thing. We had a shitty summer so I can handle some calm. My husband had some crazy shit go down at work but I can't ever share any of it. Silly, HIPAA.  
4. Boys. The football team. The drum line. Really any of them. Mmmm, a couple cute cheerleaders, too. #imsluttyandiknowit 

Other than that, marching band and choir and theater. Ohhhhh the theater parties.

YAAAAAAS MY CRISPY BITCHES


1. How many weeks are you?  5w1d

2. How are you feeling?  Fucking fantastic.  Aside from the occasional migraine and being tired as fuck, as long as I'm eating right and drinking water (ALL THE WATER) I'm feeling great.

3. Any funny or crazy things happen last week?  Well, I found out I was pregnant, so that was kinda crazy.  Oh, and my BFF is also pregnant and due two weeks before me!!

4. What activity if any did you do in high school?  Chorus, Student Leadership, Performing and Visual Arts Society, and trying to get myself into every club yearbook photo possible as a competition with a friend.  Did you know I was in the Spanish club?  Neither did I, but there's photographic evidence, soooo...

@zaclina Week 7 was my worst week of nausea so far.  Everyday!  It's starting to be a bit less and then I worry and don't even enjoy when I feel fine. And then the next day when I feel like shit I think back to when I felt okay and worried so much that I didn't want to eat anything!

@sandbar517 REcycled shit, love it.
@Pearlvirus WHen is your scan?

AFM- I either am constipated or the runs. Not fair, I want an in between!  I was a little panicy yesterday. My right leg has felt weird for days and I think I may have pinched a nerve. It's like, I don't need anything else to make me feel yucky.  I already overanalyze everything my body does (pgal syndrome) I don't need to add to the list. Today though, I feel okay.  I had faux grilled cheese (imitation coconut cheese-sounds gross but it's delicious) for breakfast!  I am paying for it right NOW.

ChasingTheDog

@justsuzie Girl I feel you on the poo problems! It's either a struggle or a little too easy.

Nauseous, but I'll take it! (PGAL worries).

2. How are you feeling? Nervous. With DD didn't get nauseous until about 6-7 weeks, but every day I still feel good makes me nervous.
3. Any funny or crazy things happen last week?
DD always finds a way to make us laugh. She is 25 months, so just over 2 years and she is repeating in her sweet voice everything. "Peanut butter toast" "tea party".
4. What activity if any did you do in high school?
 Track, cheerleading, powder puff football, Key Club, International Club, Science club, all the AP classes.
