1. What week/fruit are you?just hit the 7 week mark. Blueberry!
2. Dr's appointments scheduled / routine / specific reason? I just had my first US with my fertility specialist, and since we saw the heartbeat (yay!) I graduate to the regular OB. I will have my first OB appointment on Monday. So excited.
3. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? My toughest symptom is the nausea. Feels like I'm boat sick, stuck out at sea all day. My rant is that I am so over the vaginal progesterone supplements I have to take, specifically the goopy medicine that leaks out all day. So worth is if it helps my little blueberry stick this time though. My rave is that I checked out a prenatal yoga class and LOVED it. I even learned a pose to help with constipation, and it WORKED.
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday food? How sad. I'm running through all the Thanksgiving classics in my head, and the thought of each one makes me want to barf. This year my fave will be the brown ans serve rolls. Normally, pumpkin pie, all the way.

2. Dr's appointments scheduled / routine / specific reason? First appointment scheduled for around the 8 week mark- Dec 3rd
3. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? Really tired, mild cramping/bloating. Have had no nausea yet! (I'm guessing I have this to look forward to soon?) also, I feel as though my breasts are fuller. Am I totally crazy?? Could that be happening already?
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday food? My grandmothers dressing! And pecan pie

2. Dr's appointments scheduled / routine / specific reason? First appointment isn't until December 1st. Still feels so far away.
3. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? No rants. Feeling nauseous all day, bloated, constipated, and the exhaustion is real.
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday food? I love green bean casserole, but the thought of it makes me queasy. I think rolls and mashed potatoes will be my favorite this year..
1. What week/fruit are you? I just hit week 8 today, so baby is the size of a raspberry.
2. Dr's appointments scheduled / routine / specific reason? I have my next appointment on December 17th for my pre-op. Already had my first appointment and U/S.
3. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? No concerns, just tired all the time. My pants are starting to become a pain as well. At least I have a few pairs of leggings.
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday food? I'm looking forward to the stuffing!
2. Dr's appointments scheduled / routine / specific reason? I still haven't contacted my midwife. This is clearly a case of "third baby" for me. I imagine that she'll have me come in the first weekend of December, if not this weekend.
3. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? The gross comes in waves, but I'm mainly just exhausted and don't want to eat.
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday food? I hope I'm able to eat! My favorite is honey baked ham and pretty much any casserole.
@kdnelson10 Hey lady! Just wanted to let you know there will be a check in for your specific due date / day of the week. I think you will change tickers on Friday if my math is right. There will be one posted that day! All of us here are 8wk 0 days, 7wk 0days... etc.
Ahhh! Dangit! Trying to be all friendly and I am an idiot... Thanks for the clarification. Just wanted to be a part of the Wednesday crew obviously
2. Dr's appointments scheduled / routine / specific reason? No doctors appointment till December 11th.
3. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? Nothing really. Extremely tireds, sore breasts....I get really hungry but can only eat a small amount or it makes me feel extremely bloated lol...but that's about it.
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday food? Turkey leftovers! Which I'm going to have to make my own small turkey this year. My husband is a restaurant manager so he has to work...so I will be eating there for thanksgiving (my family all lives in pa...in live in sc).
2. I had an ultrasound yesterday with a healthy heart rate of 150bpm! I'm feeling a lot of relief after being able to see the baby and knowing it's progressing normally.
3. I go from starving and wanting to eat everything to getting sick at the thought of food of any kind, which is the case most of the time.
Mashed potatoes, stuffing, and gravy are my favorite!

2. Dr's appointments scheduled / routine / specific reason? No doctor appts until Dec 5th. But it's getting closer!! :-D
3. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms? My nausea went away last week, but it's back with a vengeance now. I got some sea bands to help. I wore them last night at work and they were amazing! I was feeling like puking before going to bed as well, so I wore them to sleep too. No other symptoms to complain of... My bloating has thankfully gone down.
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday food? I love pumpkin pie with lots of Cool Whip!! Also, I typically do not like cranberry sauce at all, but last year I found a new recipe for a cranberry jelly and it is amazing. I put it on a mini-sandwich on a Hawaiian roll with some turkey. Delicious!
1.) 7 weeks/ blueberry 2.) no appointments till dec. 1 3.) finally got hit with the nausea yesterday. 4.) I love all the food, nothing is better than being pregnant on Thanksgiving or Christmas!
2) second beta tomorrow. Please keep your fingers crossed for me.
3) I went to the drs today and they think I have strep throat (even though the test came back negative). It's hard to tell if my symptoms are pg related or sick related.
Holiday food- yes, I want everything. Hopefully my morning sickness doesn't get crazy until after thanksgiving. I want to eat.

2) First Dr's appointment isn't until Dec. 9th which sucks but only a couple more weeks to go til then.
3) some what moody but I think it's because nothing sounds good good to eat. The thought of any kind of meat sounds horrible and makes my stomach turn (which isn't right because I love meat) lol I can't even cook it for my husband. And pico de gallo sounds so good but can't make it right. That and my boobs are killing me and the cramping scares the crap out of me.
Holiday food- the only thing that sounds good would be green bean casserole!
1. What week/fruit are you? Poppy seed 2. Dr's appointments scheduled / routine / specific reason? 1st appointment scheduled for 12/26...routine intake exam 3. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms?

GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday food?
2. Dr's appointments scheduled / routine / specific reason?
First doctor appt. to confirm pregnancy on Dec. 1
3. Rants/raves/concerns/symptoms?
As of yesterday, meat is totally grossing me out! I tried turkey, ground beef, and pork, and they all suddenly taste different. I had to leave the table tonight because simply looking at the turkey was making me nauseous.
GTKY: What is your favorite Holiday food?
Green Bean Casserole. I'm hoping it doesn't gross me out next week. I've been waiting for the casserole since last Thanksgiving!
