Happy Hump Day!
How far along are you/EDD?
GTKY - Favorite place to shop
What are your thought's on the Symptom check-in? I copied it from October '14. I know none of us are dealing with major symptoms yet, but I thought once morning sickness kicks in this might be a good way to do it rather than having tons of "I feel sick" posts on the board. Please feel free to share your opinion!
ETA: changed GTKY

How are you feeling today?: Pretty good still! With my daughter I didn't start feeling sick until 6 weeks so I'm trying to enjoy feeling normal while it lasts. I'm bloated/gassy but I can live with that.
Rants/Randoms: I'm obsessing over my pee stick progression even though I know better. I can't see a difference yet (in 2 days, I'm crazy) so a little doubt is creeping into my mind. PGAL kinda sucks. I'm trying to be happy and relax though.
GTKY - Favorite place to shop: Target

I'm fine with it. I don't know if it needs to be an everyday thing either. But I do think it's nice to have something to chat about/a gtky. In my past BMB we had a daily "randoms" thread where we chatted about whatever was going on in our lives. It helped get to know each other. And once we get more people I'm sure we will have the HDBD, UO, and FFFC posts too.
So after all that I guess I'm indifferent. Haha.

For clothes? Jeans from Gap and tops from Express. I wear scrubs at work so all my clothes are casual.
For fantasy? Room and Board!
And! @DoubleUp8
This daily check in is an awesome idea! Love it! Do you need help doing them so that you are not stuck with them every day?

GTKY - Favorite place to shop depends on what for! I love Target, Loft, Home Goods/Marshalls, and can't leave out Ulta and Lush (I love beauty products)!
How are you feeling today?: I am good, however, my PIO shot was a bitch today....
Rants/Randoms: Work... Not my favorite place to be at this point! I could be playing on pinterest or planning a nursery, or lounging on the sofa eating bon bons...
I would go crazy doing any of the above but it is a thought!
GTKY - Favorite place to shop: Amazon and Teavana!

****
Nope.
How are you feeling today?: i feel better than yesterday! The nausea comes in waves. My boobs are still sore and I have no appetite for anything besides kraft dinner and cucumbers.
Rants/Randoms: yesterday I had such a bad headache! As soon as I came home from work I went right to bed, at like 5:45. I get migraines and I am so worried that I will get frequent headaches and Tylenol only helps so much!
GTKY - Favorite place to shop: I am not a huge shopper but I like old navy and lulu lemon.
I love the check ins. I really like the GTKY part and it's nice to see if other people are having similar symptoms. I can help post some too! And I also agree that at some point we should start doing the uo and fffc and any other type of posts like that!
How are you feeling today?: really not bad at all. My symptoms seem to have subsided quite a bit which both scares me and makes me happy
Rants/Randoms: today is the DPO that I started spotting with my CP. I took a digi this morning that said "pregnant 2-3" which makes sense and made me feel better, but I can't help but be terrified.
GTKY - Favorite place to shop: kohl's and target. American Eagle for jeans though, I won't buy jeans anywhere else anymore
What are your thought's on the Symptom check-in? I agree that every day may not be necessary but I do enjoy and appreciate the thread. Maybe we could assign a day based on due dates? For example, those due the first week of Nov could have Monday symptom check-in, those due
the 2nd week could have Tuesday, etc.
How are you feeling today?: Just fine! My only symptom seems to be that I'm a little weepy- tears spring in my eyes over so much.
Rants/Randoms: I'm really trying to keep up with exercise before first tri tiredness/suckiness starts.
GTKY - Favorite place to shop - Sephora, birchbox, banana outlet
How are you feeling today? Tired but that's from being up with a sick toddler. No real symptoms yet.
Rants/Randoms: I haven't told anyone IRL except my DH and I'm dying. It's making me twitchy!
GTKY- favorite place to shop? Target. I spend entirely too much time and money there.
I like the check ins, but they aren't necessary everyday. It'll be nice to have a place to vent when m/s shows in a couple of weeks.
How are you feeling today?: good. Boobs are no longer sore and haven't cramped today.
Rants/Randoms: I'm studying for an exam that's on Saturday. Really nervous I'm going to fail again because I haven't really focused on it since I found out I was pregnant. Really hope I pass!
GTKY - Favorite place to shop: I love express!

I like the daily check ins. It's nice to see how others are feeling since we are all due around the same time and the Gtky. Once I'm done studying for my exam, I will be able to participate more.
How are you feeling today? My boobs are sore but that's really my only complaint today
Rants/Randoms:We told our donor last night along with DW's parents. So much fun. We videotaped their reaction and keep watching it over and over so we can laugh at their excitement.
GTKY- favorite place to shop? Target for household things, Whole Foods when I'm feeling weatlhy, Old Navy, Loft and NY&Co for clothes
I think the check ins are a great way for us to get the ball rolling on the board and get to know each other. I agree maybe we choose a day or two a week to check in instead of every day. The check in thread will help keep from having the board filled with "I feel sick posts" and if people choose to post anyway we can direct them to the thread!
How are you feeling today? Tired (but that's probably the progesterone) and peeing a ton (probably all the water I'm drinking)
Rants/Randoms: I'm antsy pants excited! I suck at secrets.
GTKY - Favorite place to shop It's been so long since I've clothes shopped for myself. Most of my shopping is Target and Amazon for non clothes stuff. Amazon Prime is awesome and addictive!
What are your thought's on the Symptom check-in? Like the others said, daily feels like overkill but we're going to get the posts anyway.
Edit for a typo

How are you feeling today?: Still exhausted. Taking a long weekend starting tomorrow, so feeling like I can deal with the fatigue. I haven't ran in two weeks, that's likely the culprit.
Rants/Randoms: Someone gifted me a beautiful bottle of beer brewed just down the street, and I almost exclaimed "Oh, my husband will love this!", but as she obviously has no idea I'm preggers, I realised that would come across as very rude. He just came in here to bug me and I can smell it on his breath - it smells great, I'll have to get one in 8 months.
GTKY - Favorite place to shop : Oh, I really don't enjoy shopping... On line? Etsy? the consignment store down the street? AsJpinky9 also mentioned, lululemon is where I end up getting a lot of my work clothes (I have a casual job), and I assume that will be even more so as my body expands. That said, I have a bit of an issue with their brand image... I just want comfy pants, stop preaching to me!
I'm feeling really good - just tired.
Favorite place to shop: target is for sure my weekends! Go in for toilet paper, leave with a cart full!
I like this update - it's fun getting to know everyone and I like that it avoids the "I'm sick" posts from multiple people. I like the idea of doing a check in based on edd week though.....
Will we be doing ticker change check ins?
How are you feeling today?: Cramps that scare me even though I know they are normal.
Rants/Randoms: Got levels tested this morning but am still waiting for OB to call and give me the results.
GTKY - Favorite place to shop? Target...I cannot walk out of that place without spending at least $50... that's why I dont as often as I would like.

How are you feeling today? Pregnant - no symptoms yet other than feeling pregnant and larger boobs. YES!
Edd- Nov 8 4w0d I just found out this morning
I feel energized from finding out.

random- my hubby is in mexico until monday night. its going to be hard waiting. this time around im happy his parents are in mexico until after 12 weeks. so no family dinners.they are all big drinkers so saying no to wine a bunch raises red flags.
Prefer to shop on line
