How far along are you? Size of baby? 
- 6 weeks. Ladybug or sweet pea!

Any new symptoms this week?
- UGH yes, the nausea has set in. It is taking everything I have to not get sick at the moment, this started yesterday and is worse today.     

Upcoming appointments?
- 2 more weeks, 12/12!

Rants/Raves/Questions?
- Just really hoping to make it through work without getting sick, I really don't want to tell them until after Christmas but at least until after our first appointment. Also, didn't expect to be waking up to urinate this early on, even if I don't drink much before bed I wake up around 3.

My LO needs to just go the eff to sleep at night! She's 5 months and just hitting the phase of "oh no!! Mom left me!!!!". It's making for a very sleepy mommy.

How far along are you? Size of baby?
9 weeks--baby is a cherry!

Any new symptoms this week?
No new symptoms, just continued nausea (uck), exhaustion, and dizziness if I a) don't drink enough water and/or b) stand up too quickly

Upcoming appointments?
Just had one this afternoon!  Had an ultrasound, little bean looked good, heart rate was 169. 

Rants/Raves/Questions?
Rants: my kids need to STOP LEAVING THEIR CRAP ON THE FLOOR.  Raves: I told the faculty I work with this week (in case my feeling disgusting interferes with all the stuff we have to do for the end of the semester), and every single person was AWESOME, and asked how they could help. Seriously--some even offered to babysit when I have classes next year. I love my department.

7 weeks - blueberry

Any new symptoms this week?
Exhaustion and nausea are 100% here and it’s a serious struggle. Nothing else out of the ordinary going on. 

Upcoming appointments?
My first appointment isn’t till Dec 7

Rants/Raves/Questions?
I seem to be sicker than last time - actual throwing up instead of just nausea. But I do feel better after throwing up, so is that a win?

One of my BFF who has been trying to get pregnant for over a year is pregnant and due August 8! I am SO excited for her and for us to be on this journey together.

No questions, really.

Thanks @lindsayleigh1989 but once the second one comes, I don't make enough to offset daycare costs. So no going back, or at least not any time soon!

Gotcha yeah childcare is a beast! well i hope you are able to enjoy this time without it being too stressful! 

TalesOfASocialIntrovert

@lindsayleigh1989 I'm sure it's going to be an adjustment, especially heading into the cold dark winter months. And it's only been like 3 days so far

@TalesOfASocialIntrovert I'm so sorry--how awful.
