2. Cravings/aversions? They change every day. Right now, i don't want anything, but a lot of smells make me want to puke. The one thing that's been an aversion the whole time and still is is the "arby's french dip and swiss" i've seen so many commercials for it and it makes me sick!

4. Favorite thing this week/Least favorite? Favorite will be getting past my loss milestone... least favorite... my DH is driving down to NYC to help out all weekend will the hurricane sandy aftermath... he and his friends are going with a group to help rebuild stuff. It'll be a lonely weekend and he leaves friday, which is the day of my loss last time (6w 6d) so it'll be an emotional weekend. I'm glad he's helping but I'll be lonely.
5. Team green/team finding out? Finding out for sure!

4. Fav thing: getting my positive digi test, least fav: just being scared of miscarriages
5. Totally going to find out!!
Make a pregnancy ticker
1. How far along are you?
4 wks 3 d
2. Cravings/aversions
No real cravings... I'll cook something or pick up some food and then decide it smells terrible and lose my appetite.
3. 1st or next appointment?
1st appt is Nov. 21
4. Favorite thing this week/Least favorite
I teach, and every Wednesday is a late start/tutorial day, so kids show up an hour late and then we tutor for about an hour. It's just nice to have a late start in the middle of the week.
5. Team green/team finding out?
I am kind of team green, but H is pretty adamant that he wants to know. The longer we've been trying, the more I've leaned toward finding out.
Cute pics, Yes!
1. How far along are you? 5wks or 4wks6days...will know dating better after my appt. on Monday!
2. Cravings/aversions Not really...I keep waiting for some but I've just been trying to eat balanced meals and have a snack or two a couple times a day to stave off any m/s...but no sign of anything yet!
3. 1st or next appointment? Monday...first real appt with OB and she will do an u/s for dating, etc.
4. Favorite thing this week/Least favorite My favorite would have to be the change I've seen in DH. He has been so helpful and has repeatedly denied my attempts at helping to make dinner. He keeps telling me how excited he is and it just makes me so happy because he was definitely more hesitant about how a baby would change our lives while we were TTC. I just feel lucky to have him through this, as he's the only one who knows aside from all of you ladies! Least favorite is the secrecy and not feeling comfortable sharing the news with even my best friends until after Monday's appointment. My coworker's best friend just gave birth over the weekend so everyone's been talking about babies and pregnancy and labor all week and it's been so hard to just sit quietly and pretend during the convos.
5. Team green/team finding out? I'm team green, DH wants to find out. I know he'd be willing to wait if it's what I truly want, but I'm just going to see how I feel as that day gets closer!
Happy Wednesday everyone! So happy to be getting to know all of you!!

3. 1st or next appointment? My next appt is on the 13th of December
4. Favorite thing this week/Least favorite Favorite thing: I am feeling less bloated this morning! Least favorite would have to be hanging my head over the toilet for hours a day.
5. Team green/team finding out? We are finding out.
This is a picture of me at 37 weeks. I was really swollen here but the last 2ish weeks I puffed up so much more so I looked like the dough boy. I hate those pictures so I'll share this one.

.

I completely agree. Well first I had an appointment set for just Friday but when I called today to see what to expect on Friday (because no one told me and I didnt expect to be seen so soon) the lady was all tore up because I was supposed to have a confirmation and registration appointment done prior to them even scheduling the appointment I have on Friday. Im still not completely sure why it's going to take 3 different appointments for all this BUT I will be talking to someone at the office today about it all. Believe me, I wont be paying for 3 separate appointments when this should have been handled in one.
