Hi everyone,
I'm going to try this once to see if there's any interest.
This is a check-in for those ladies whose tickers change on Saturdays. (EDDs Jan 3, 10, 17, 24, 31).

Re: **Saturday Ticker Change**
How are you feeling? I was turning a corner last week. Mid-week everything got worse again. I feel pretty good right now, hope to have a productive weekend.
Appointments/Updates? I have my first midwife appointment this week! I'm really looking forward to meeting the midwives and getting a better understanding on how everything works.
Rants/Raves: I feel so guilty about how little exercise I've been getting lately. I'm just so exhausted. I also haven't been cooking that much so my diet hasn't been too great either. I feel guilty about that too.
GTKY: Do you have any fun plans for the summer? Our biggest summer plan is to get our house in order so that we can sell it and hopefully buy a new house before the baby comes. It will be a lot of work/money, but worth it if we can manage to get into a hew house before Christmas! Hope others are doing something more fun!
How are you feeling: so far today pretty good. Last week lots of cramping, neausea, anxiety, bloating and fatigue.
Appointments: second appointment. Monday. I get to start paying for the OB then
Rants and raves: I have this pretty extreme anxiety the week I have to go to the doctor it's become concerning. I also hate not "feeling pregnant" I just feel yucky. I also have not been getting enough exercise.
GTKY: I already did my fun summer thing. I went to Hawaii two weeks ago and it was wonderful. I'm a teacher so once summer school wraps up next week I'll have a lot more time. I'm working on a quiet book for my nephews birthday also.
How are you feeling? Good, overall. I'm just cranky/tired with some back pain. I'm also suffering from pregnancy brain, real bad.
Appointments/Updates? My next appt is at 14w4d so I still have a bit to wait. I still feel like everything is okay since we saw the LO at 10w4d so I hope I'm correct!!
Rants/Raves: My boobs hurt real bad. Apparently, this is a good thing according to my OB if I want to BF lol...I'm not so sure cause they HURT. Hubs has been good to me so far....he let me eat my weight in Taco Bell last night and didn't judge me
GTKY: Do you have any fun plans for the summer? We are going to visit his parents next weekend for the 4th but we don't really have anything else planned.
How are you feeling? Pretty great. I was worried that my lack of morning sickness was a bad sign, but now I'm just enjoying it. As long as I eat really often, I feel good. Just exhausted!
Appts/updates? Yes!! Just had our appt on Thurs. Measured 1 day behind? But we got to see the heartbeat, it was so reassuring. Now just 4 weeks till we get to hear it..damn waiting game.
Rants and Raves: Not too much to report!
Fun plans for the Summer: Going to see Sara Bareilles in August. I'm so excited!!!
I'm going to try this once to see if there's any interest.
Week/Fruit: 12 weeks! Plum! So excited to finally be here
How are you feeling? Feeling not too bad actually. I think I turned the corner. 9 wks I was absolute shit... Slowly feeling more energetic and not as sick! Actually cooking and eating dinner
Appointments/Updates? This coming Thursday is my first ultrasound- can't wait!
Rants/Raves: nothing of note
GTKY: Do you have any fun plans for the summer? Not really- we live at the beach so we don't usually go anywhere during the summer. I am going to Italy however for 2 weeks in September/ October
Week/Fruit: 13/ peach
Feeling: pretty good! Glad to be out of the 1st tri! Still kind of sleepy, but not the extreme fatigue from before.
Appointments: next one is this Thurs!
Rants/raves: I've been more consistent with working out. Yay. I still see the scale creep up. I'm cool with that, just worried I'm gaining too quickly.
GTKY: Summer is booked! I'm a teacher, so I always over-plan the summer. Next Saturday we head to the Gulf Coast in Alabama. 7/16 we head to New Mexico. 8/1 I visit mom in Virginia.
How are you feeling? Tired and nauseated as usual, but I'm having more periods of time during the day that I'm okay rather than feeling gross.
Appointments/Updates? My appointment was supposed to be yesterday, but then the doc had complications with a root canal she had earlier in the week, so i got bumped back to next Wednesday! Can't really blame the gal for skipping work due to a root canal.
Rants/Raves: I feel like a weirdo, but I planned for today to be completely lazy so I could catch up on rest and hanging out with DD, but I feel weirdly guilty for not doing anything. Not guilty enough to actually do anything, but enough to feel annoyed by it!
GTKY: Do you have any fun plans for the summer? Hanging out with my sister while she's on leave from army stuff! Super looking forward to that!
Week/Fruit:
How are you feeling?
annoyed, as i am at work on a saturday (my boss is being a total witch)
Appointments/Updates?
next one is July 7th
hopefully we will get to hear baby's heart, how exciting (we saw the heartbeat at last US but it was too early to hear)
Rants/Raves:
DH is kind of sucking lately too. He's not super understanding and i'm dying from allergy symptoms...just trying to suck it up but he's being an arse about my being tired/wanting to rest at home (i work about 60-65 hrs/wk)
GTKY: Do you have any fun plans for the summer?
unfortunately, no. We moved to a SUPER high cost of living area (rent is almost double what our previous mortgage was) and work has been slow for DH. we can't afford any vacation or anything this summer, so hoping that at least some friends/family will visit us (we live in a cooler part of Arizona where it's isn't 120 degrees LOL)
How are you feeling: Varies. I almost passed out at work yesterday and I feel good after my 5k today. But no real food sounds good. And my lower back really hurts - I may call my chiropractor for an emergency adjustment.
Appointments/updates: first appointment on Monday! So excited to hear the heartbeat! (Had a viability u/s at seven weeks two days but never saw a provider.)
Rants/raves: last week sucked the big one at work. Period.
Fun summer plans: just spending as much time with my family as possible. We have a pool and a family pass to a local petting farm.
How are you feeling? I have good hours and bad hours when I used to just have bad hours so this is progress! Today I am exhausted and thinking of taking second nap.
Appointments/Updates? Went to give blood/urine last Thursday for California screening tests. I won't have those results back yet but the lab apparently also did some tests. My OB hasn't commented on the results yet but a little internet searching indicates that I might have a UTI so we will see what she says.
Rants/Raves: Cherries are so good right now. I have been eating them by the pound.
GTKY: Do you have any fun plans for the summer? We went on vacation earlier in June so now it is work work work.
How are you feeling? Been feeling good!
Appointments/Updates? Had NT scan and bloodworm last week, waiting anxiously to hear anything.
Rants/Raves: Trying to be more active and eat healthier now that I'm not feeling as sick, but my doctor said eat all organic and no fast food. While I realize that would be ideal, it's a little too strict for me and is making me feel guilty about everything. (Especially since this weekend we are driving from PA to FL and there aren't too many quick and cheap organic restaurant stops along the way!)
GTKY: Do you have any fun plans for the summer?
Florida this week! Looking forward to it!
How are you feeling? Doing really well. Been able to stick more to my running plan. I've been having a lot of back pain and insomnia is setting in at night though.
Appointments/Updates?
Appt on Monday! Can't wait
Rants/Raves:
I don't understand being so tired but having insomnia at the same time!! Like lay awake for hour or two every night.
GTKY: Do you have any fun plans for the summer? Just camping with DH and puppy. Visiting family as much as possible.
Appointments/Updates? Had a great u/s at just under 9 weeks in May. Heard heartbeat on dopplar earlier this month. Next checkup is in early July. Looking forward to August when I will get another u/s and hopefully find out the gender.
Rants/Raves:
How are you feeling? Still have all day MS which is worse in the evening. Seems to be getting a little better. With DS, it lasted until 14 weeks and then I was fine!
Appointments/Updates? I have another appt on Tuesday.
Rants/Raves: DH has been helping out so much. I haven't cooked dinner since I was 6 weeks and he has taken care of it every night as well as getting DS ready for bed. So thankful for him!
GTKY: Do you have any fun plans for the summer? We are heading up to Salem, OR at the beginning of August for a wedding.
BFP #1 8.6.2011 EDD 4.7.2012 DS1 born 3.30.2012
BFP #3 4.30.2014 EDD 1.10.2015 DS2 born 12.31.2014
How are you feeling? I'm starting to feel pretty good during the days. It's the nights where I'm still feeling crummy.
Appointments/Updates? My next appt isn't for another 3 weeks, it will be my 16 week appt already!! Can't believe how quick it's going!
Rants/Raves: I just wish this stupid headache would go away already. Lesson learned, when you start having neck pain it's time for the chiropractor .
GTKY: Do you have any fun plans for the summer? Not really
Week/Fruit: 11 Lime
How are you feeling? Super emotional. Me and DH have been up and down on a daily basis. I hate him one minute then love him the next and his mood swings aren't helping the situation. Other than that MS is getting a little bit better along with appetite so that's been good.
Appointments/Updates? We had our second appointment last Thursday. It wasn't too eventful. She gave us info on the blood scan they do to check for abnormalities. Which was different to me because I expected the ultrasound NT Scan instead, but guess I'm out of luck. Next appointment won't be until 15 w!
Rants/Raves: I'm just getting super tired of DH being such a jerk all of the time. (Tonight he got mad because I was on the phone for a long time when we were supposed to be watching a movie. But it's a rare occasion when my best friend from out of town gets to call!
GTKY: Do you have any fun plans for the summer? Nothing really. This summer has been pretty boring so far, and it doesn't look like it'll be any more eventful anytime soon.
