How are you feeling?: Blegh. Nausea often. Tiredness sort of improving. Starting to have some more joint pain already which feels wild. 

Rants/Raves: Outshine popsicles have been my new favorite get-rid-of-nausea snack. I should buy a share in their company, I’m buying so many lately. 

Questions: None today! 

GTKY: My favorite weekends are the ones where I get to do some gardening, and for supper going out to a local fun restaurant so I don’t have to cook

10 weeks exactly today! EDD July 6th

This is baby #8

we will be finding out and are hoping for a girl. We currently have 6 boys and 1 girl! 

Next appointment is an ultrasound on New Years Eve. 

The last few days my mornings feel easier to handle with the nausea. I am really hoping this stays! A lot of my other pregnancies, but had nausea through 15 weeks. But with one of my kids I felt better around 10 weeks. I’m also starting to feel better energy, more like my normal. 

I have a rave: my daughter is baking Christmas cookies right now. Between her and a few of my sons I barely have to do any Christmas baking this year, but still get a wide assortment of treats! 

How I spend my weekends? I’m so boring with this! I like to be at home somewhat to prepare for the week ahead. I homeschool 5 of my kids and sometimes weekend are when I plan. I like sundays to be laid back. We go to Mass and then try to have family time. But I also like breaking loose from the routine and going out.

How are you feeling?:
Not great, 4&5yo gave me a bug of some kind. 103° Fever, body aches....all the good stuff so sitting at Urgent care waiting to be seen. Other than that, hardly any pregnancy symptoms except my boobs are still so tender!

Rants/Raves:
I love seeing how excited my girls are to have a new baby. The 4yo sometimes says she wants a brother bc shes sick of girls (me, 2 girls and a girl cat, MH is outnumbered haha)

@babybelugaco man I hope you feel better soon! Sick + feverish sounds terrible on top of pregnancy 

@scarletwillow I like to be boring on my weekends too a coworker gave me crap for that recently… but sometimes it’s so nice to get a jump start on the week ahead and just have time together at home!

@cherrystorming, it's definitely been a rough week. Tested positive for the flu but the dr said because I went in on the first day of symptoms shes hopeful it won't be as bad. All the congestion and coughing are hangining on but at least I don't feel like I was hit by a train anymore.
