@asutherl made me realize we hadn't done this yet either!
Ok, Thursday Mamas, lay it on me:
What week/fruit/veggie/other random object are you?
How do you feel?
Best gift you've ever received (or given)?

Re: Thursday Ticker Change 12/18
I feel: mostly good! A few headaches, some dry skin and nasal congestion, but it's winter so all that was pretty much expected anyway.
Best gift: For college graduation my parents gave me a Nikon DSLR. I still love that thing almost 8 years later. Plus, it'll get renewed use with LO coming in June

I've had a cold for 2 straight months. I don't know what it's like to breathe normally anymore. But at least I can eat most of the time now.
The best gift I've ever gotten was a trip to Italy my senior year of high school. I wish I could go back--10 days was not long enough.
Hello Thursday mamas!
Week: 15- We have an orange now!
Feeling: Major exhaustion/lack of motivation, peeing ALL the time, and achy/uncomfortable in my hips and belly but no major MS or anything so I can't complain.
Best Gift: I've given concert tickets to my husband a few times. I just love how excited he gets and we have so much fun together. I'd much rather give a gift of quality time together that will create lasting memories.

1st Baby and thrilled!!
14 weeks - A lemon!
How do you feel?
I feel like I have more energy! I have been eating more! My face is clearing up! (Hope I'm not speaking too soon for all these things - knock on wood)
Best gift you've ever received (or given)?
Happy week-change, all!
What week/fruit/veggie/other random object are you? 14 weeks, a lemon - which makes me laugh because I've had SO much water with lemon this week.
How do you feel? Pretty great! Lots more energy, and putting most of my focus into concealing my blump/bump at work.
Best gift you've ever received (or given)? The first thing that I thought of was the matching Christmas dresses and American Doll I got when I was about 8 years old. My mom made me a green velvet Christmas dress just like Molly's, which I had drooled over for months and months in the catalogs. (I'd been asking for an American Doll for a long time, but I knew it was too expensive.) Christmas morning, my mom laid out my new dress on her bedroom and brought me in for a surprise. It was the most beautiful dress I'd ever seen, and I remember just walking up and stroking the velvet. As I was petting my dress, my mom pointed to the side and there was a Molly of my very own, dressed up in a miniature version of the dress she made for me! I think my little-girl heart just about burst from happiness. Of course, I made my mom braid my hair just like Molly's so we could be twins for Christmas, with our matching glasses and dresses. Many Christmases have come and gone since, but that one moment stands out to me. Hope I can give my own child a similar moment of happiness one day!
We are 13 weeks, so I think our fruit is a peach!
I am feeling pretty good. Nausea and fatigue are improving daily so I am very grateful. I am a STM and my baby bump is starting to poke out!
Best gift? Well two years ago my father-in-law paid my entire trip (airfare/lodging/food) to go see my husband graduate from BMT as a Christmas present (graduation was in January and we missed all the major Holidays for or first season as married people so it was soooo good to be able to see him for a few days and not have to worry about the money)
I feel: Seems like second trimester is regressing into the way I was feeling in the first trimester. Lack of appetite again, tired and sluggish.
Best gift: My engagement ring, it's my forever ring.
Week: 16, avocado
Feeling: A little scared from some earlier spotting. Also been feeling a bit crampy/tender in my abdomen this evening. Hoping it's gone tomorrow.
Best gift: My parents let me get a trampoline when I was in 7th grade. I bought it myself with money I had saved up, so the gift part was my parents allowing me to get it. I had begged for years. I was so proud of myself and it was the best day ever when we set it up.
Edited: to add paragraphs.

Just starting to feel really uncomfortable in my regular pants, but I didn't want to go to the mall before Christmas and it's too late to order any before we leave town to visit family. . . I'm regretting not buying at least a few maternity pants/skirts already! Otherwise feeling pretty good. Not exhausted at night any more but having a really hard time getting up in the mornings!
Best gift received ever was a Nintendo. I was 5, I think, and it was so far beyond my wildest dreams of what would be under the tree. Best given I'd say was a machine to convert vinyl records and cassette tapes to CD that we gave our father many years ago. He still dinks around with it these days and he gets so much enjoyment out of sharing his collection in a format that is accessible to the rest of us!
Hope everyone has a great week!
16w, avacado!
How do you feel?
Great, no strong symptoms but the bloat is turning to a bump finally. Oh and I swear the boobs are getting bigger too. If only the acne would get smaller.
Best gift you've ever received (or given)?
That's tough, I guess the kittens I received as a child. My birthday's just before Christmas and my parents told me they'd get me a kitten for Christmas, so when they got me one for my birthday I was super surprised. Then when they got me another for Christmas I was double-shocked. I loved those cats until the day they died.
TTC since March 2014

How do you feel? pretty okay most of the time. everything i eat STILL gives me heartburn and my gag reflex is on point, but the nausea has calmed down so much! also, fat. i feel very fat.
Best gift you've ever received (or given)? I guess I never really got excited over gifts once I hit my teen years. So when I was about 21/22, I asked for an iPod and my mom said it wasn't in the cards. It was the last gift I opened that year and I cried. My mom said it was the greatest thing to see and I loved that iPod so hard - it's still in my family; gifted it to my sister when I got an upgrade.

My nausea/ vomiting is getting worse instead of better. I called in sick to work last night because I couldn't keep anything down.
For my moms 40th birthday we bought her a diamond family ring. She had never owned a diamond before (wedding band was plain gold) and used to joke she delivered us all in April so one day she could get a diamond ring. She hasn't taken it off on the 15 years since we bought it for her
I also bought my dh a fancy guitar the first Christmas after I graduated nursing school. I wrapped a pick in a ring box and he was confused when he opened it. He started crying when I went and grabbed the guitar from it's hiding place
@sajastar your doll story made me tear up! My mom always sewed our Christmas gifts because we didn't have much money growing up. Looking back, I appreciate how hard my mom worked to give us the magic of Christmas with so little.
