How many weeks/what fruit are you?
17 weeks is an onion

How are you feeling this week?
I'm feeling the growing pains, but no kicks yet. Otherwise, tired from the holiday but feeling great otherwise.

Any appointments or ultrasounds this week? Announce your team if you know!
I had an appointment this past Tuesday... beautiful heartbeat, but nothing else until Dec 23... 20 weeks, 3 weeks away!!!
We're going to find out, if Baby cooperates, but for now I guess we're still "Team Green."

What else is going on? Apples and Onions this week?
Thanksgiving is nice, but we're at my ILs... which is boring and annoying. Leaving tomorrow afternoon (4 hour drive).

GTKY: What is your favorite way to spend a cold/snowy day in the winter?
Inside! I greatly dislike the cold, and NW Ohio can get kinda chilly...
With no kids, I'd say reading and sipping a hot chocolate (or hot tea, depending on my mood...) Carnation powder in hot milk, or Lipton Green Tea Orange, Jasmine and Vanilla... yum. And now I want some hot chocolate.
With kids, keeping them from getting cabin fever is the goal, I don't care how it is attained. My oldest is 3.5, so not old enough to be outside on his own yet, and my youngrst just turned 1, and needs supervision. My 2 year old needs supervision inside or out, and sinxe my preference is inside, I need to die to self a bit sometimes so they can have fun. Ethan has already asked to build a snowman, though we don't have nearly enough snow sticking yet.

Team Green, next apt is Dec 16th

What else is going on? Apples and Onions this week?

DH's sister has been visiting due to the holiday. I love her but can't stand her. She was at our house for less than an hour. In that time she used our bathroom within 2 minutes of getting here (and my expensive lotion), helped herself to a snack and water in the kitchen and questioned me about my parenting practices (she has no children) Urg!

GTKY: What is your favorite way to spend a cold/snowy day in the winter?

Inside with hot chocolate and a movie.

How many weeks/what fruit are you?
I am 14 weeks (bringing in the rear, due May 31st!) baby is a lemon this week

How are you feeling this week?
Pretty close to normal. I haven't had any morning sickness so far, only extreme exhaustion but that is fading out as I get further into 2nd trimester.

Any appointments or ultrasounds this week? Announce your team if you know!
Nope. My next one isn't for two more weeks. I won't find out what team we're on until early/mid January.

What else is going on? Apples and Onions this week?
Onions: spending thanksgiving alone because my husband is deployed and the nearest family is 13 hours away. Can you believe they wanted me to drive 13 hours though snowy mountains alone and pregnant to go to my inlaws house?? No please. But it was a much more sad and emotional day than I expected.
Apples: my husband is almost home!! Just a few more weeks. He's missed the whole pregnancy so far. I got my BFP one week after he deployed.
2nd apple: I felt baby move for the first time on thanksgiving!! It was super early for a FTM: 13 weeks, 5 days, but I've been "looking" for signs. It happened twice-during a warm bath and during my midnight snack. But I haven't felt it since then.

GTKY: What is your favorite way to spend a cold/snowy day in the winter?
Curled up with a blanket sipping cocoa or tea

ama7165 · November 2013

How many weeks/what fruit are you? 18 weeks, sweet potato

How are you feeling this week? Pretty good, the headaches have mostly resolved. I have more energy, but still the heightened sense of smell limits my tolerance for cooking and being in the kitchen.

Any appointments or ultrasounds this week? Announce your team if you know! Next appt and a/s on Dec16th!

What else is going on? Apples and Onions this week?Apple- thanksgiving was just the two of us followed by shopping, very relaxing. Onion- my mil does not respect some of our choices and decisions and now she is giving me the silent treatment just because I told her about it. Sigh.

GTKY: What is your favorite way to spend a cold/snowy day in the winter? Hot chocolate and movie in front of the fireplace. Or enjoying a latte at my favorite coffee shop. I also don't like the cold weather so I prefer indoors to out in the winter.

How many weeks/what fruit are you? 18 weeks, sweet potato!

How are you feeling this week? Pretty good actually. I don't want to jinx anything, but no throwing up this week and I seem to have gotten some of my energy back! Hopefully I can ride this out.

Any appointments or ultrasounds this week? Announce your team if you know! No appointments or ultrasounds until December 16th. Anatomy scan and 20 week apt on the same day! It feels so far away! We will be finding out the sex and having a reveal party with our family and close friends.

What else is going on? Apples and Onions this week? Apple: Thanksgiving was really nice and I LOVED being able to eat all the food without feeling nauseous. This is also my first holiday season NOT working retail, so it's been soooooo nice to have a relaxing weekend instead of the usual chaos. Onion: DH had to work on Thanksgiving so we didn't get to spend the holiday together. But he did it so that next year he won't have to since it'll be our baby's first holiday season!

GTKY: What is your favorite way to spend a cold/snowy day in the winter? Sitting in our living room in front if the wood burning stove with a lap full of sleeping pups. It's how I spent most of my day today!

Inside...with the heater on...watching movies...cuddling with DD and DH and drinking hot chocolate!

Soupy84 · December 2013

How many weeks/what fruit are you? 17 weeks - onion

How are you feeling this week? Physically, awesome.

Any appointments or ultrasounds this week? Announce your team if you know! Team Green. No appointments this week.

What else is going on? Apples and Onions this week?
Apples: My whole family now knows we are expecting and my parents will be making a trip out to see us next week

Onions: My EDD for my lost pregnancy was this week

GTKY: What is your favorite way to spend a cold/snowy day in the winter? Growing up (in the far north) I would spend those days out on my skidoo or strap on a pair of country skis. -50 Celsius was the temperature for limiting how long I stayed out to play. Nowadays, I am too old to put up with the cold weather (anything below -20 Celsius and I get all pouty). I would gladly curl up with a good book or pop in a movie with DH.

CMDR513 · December 2013

How many weeks/what fruit are you? 16 weeks - Avocado

How are you feeling this week? More tired than anything.

Any appointments or ultrasounds this week? Announce your team if you know! No appts until the 13th. I have my reg. OB appt, and I have to get my Sequential blood work. As far as Teams, we are undecided. I didn't want to find out; DH does. I am kinda interested in finding out. I bought two onesies from Carters (spent $6 total). I want the Tech. to place the envelope and correct onesie in the bag. We go on the 30th.

What else is going on? Apples and Onions this week?
Apples: Spending time with the family.
Onions: Not as productive as I wanted to be.

GTKY: What is your favorite way to spend a cold/snowy day in the winter? Favorite is spending it indoors as a Snow Day. I love having unexpected days off. It doesn't make a difference to me if the year were to be extended as I will be on Maternity leave.

PattyTC · December 2013

How many weeks/what fruit are you?
17 weeks/ onion

How are you feeling this week? Great! A little tired at times though

Any appointments or ultrasounds this week? Announce your team if you know! None for this week. Team pink!

What else is going on? Apples and Onions this week? Apples- it's been so neat feeling little one move even if it is just a few times Onions- I'm so uninterested in food that meals are becoming a pain. Hopefully this gets better soon!

GTKY: What is your favorite way to spend a cold/snowy day in the winter? In the house, by a fire, watching it snow. I hate being out in the cold!
