How are you feeling?
Rants/Raves?
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather?
Re: Thursday Symptoms
How far along are you? 5W2D
How are you feeling? Same as yesterday. Worried
Rants/Raves? I see that a lot of women is having brown/light pink discharge as I am. I called the doctor yesterday and they told me to relax unless I have cramps. I had more discharge last night but I don't know if it's I ran for the bus to go home after work. For now I am just laying in bed to see if it goes away.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? Autumn and Winter=) I love the holidays at this time and cozying up in bed.
Great! Tired by the end of the day.
I don't feel pregnant yet...
I love summer! Yay summer babies
How far along are you? 5+5
How are you feeling? A teensy bit nauseous, wearing sea bands just in case since I have a test today and don't need to be running out to puke.
Rants/Raves? So bloated. I took off my ring and there's still a mark there.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? Back in OR I loved summer. Here in MN I guess it's September- September is the only decently reliably nice month. Maybe some of October.
BFP #2 3/21 EDD 11/28/16
How far along are you? 6 weeks 6 days.
How are you feeling? The morning sickness has stuck. Still feel yuck, still think I'm ready to puke. But now I know to wait till after I puke to brush my teeth, because mac and cheese and tooth paste...not a good combo.
Rants/Raves? 1st doctors appointment was really really boring, they gave me a lot of really good information and I liked the office. Got super excited when some brought in their week old womb nugget in the waiting room. Husband and I decided to do the first trimester testing(he needs a piece of mind), I told him that's fine as long as my insurance covers it and I'll get an ultra sound out of it so win win. I don't go back till the 8th of December for the heartbeat, so now I'm back to being impatient.

I actually really like late summer and into early fall, just couldn't resist using that gif.
Married: May 16th 2015
How are you feeling? Nauseated but sexy- it's feels as weird as it sounds
Rants/Raves? The only time I feel okay to eat is at night, when I'm starving and exhausted, while laying on the couch. Only time all day I don't barf. My rave is (TMI) have you guys tried the pregnant sex? I swear it's like my hormones made my vagina 10 years younger- it's stretchier and wetter and gets swollen like the blood flow is excellent now! I woke up wanting to barf, but instead let DH talk me into sex and it did not disappoint! Something is different down there and it's an improvement.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I like fall the best when it's chilly enough for boots and sweaters but not snowing yet. Aka legging season!
How are you feeling? Tired, but still pretty good!
Rant/rave- I'm still trying to keep my pregnancy hidden, and it is so hard not to tell everyone!
GTKY: favorite season? I love fall weather. I think it is beautiful when the leaves change color!
How far along are you? 4w6d
How are you feeling? Good but very tired.
Rants/Raves? Rave - DD said 'I love you' for the first time yesterday. Melted my heart!
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I love the spring and seeing all the trees blooming. We start to go on walks more and just are more active, in general. Plus, more sunlight!
DD #2: EDD July 2016
How far along are you? 3+4
How are you feeling? I feel...off today. Just yuck. Probably because I slept like crap - see below
Rants/Raves? Two huge thumbs down to my dear husband who kept me up until after 11 watching TV in bed and then woke me up at 5:45 by twitching his feet under the covers. To further induce my rage, I got up for the day at 6 and he promptly fell back asleep until 7.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? Sunny sweatshirt and jeans weather - where its cool enough that you are comfortable in jeans and sweatshirt, but still able to be outside. Most often found in early spring or mid-fall here in VT.
Married: October 2014
TTC #1 since September 2015
How far along are you? 6w something.
How are you feeling? A bit nauseated.
Rants/Raves? Everyone's talking about how they're crying at the drop of a hat. I'm usually sure overemotional, but lately I'm over here like
FOR EVERYTHING. Zero tolerance for BS
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? Right now. I can finally wear jeans without sweating my ass off. Now if only I can get my ass in the jeans...
How are you feeling? I feel okay, I woke up feel nauseous and that goes when I eat. I've gone off lots of different foods though. My breasts are the worst, they are so tender and sensitive.
Rants/Raves? I'm having no motivation to do anything. It's a struggle just to move off the sofa. I'm not tired....just lazy!
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? Autumn in London....I walk over London Bridge every day and it's very nice this time of year
How far along are you? 6w3d
How are you feeling? It's touch and go over here. I'm either desperately tired, horribly nauseous or crying. Good stuff, people. Good stuff.
Rants/Raves? Thank god for cereal. Actually all breakfast foods. Because otherwise I'm out of food groups.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? Mojitos, flip flops, tank tops, long days, beach weekends, barbecues, ice cream on the boardwalk, sand in my toes, ocean in my hair. I used to be all about Fall but I'm a "down the shore" Jersey girl. Summer is my jam.

#2 EDD: 6/29/2016, C Section: 6/22/2016
How far along are you? 4 weeks today! (I'm basing this off LMP which is what my doctor does, even though I know I ovulated early and am actually 4w 4d...I feel dumber for letting this even matter to me).
How are you feeling? Last night I was woken up by the worst "cramps" which turned out to just be gas. #classy I have a head cold right now but no fever so I'm just trying to power through it and feel better by the weekend. And my breasts are getting more sore and sensitive. No nausea or food cravings/aversions yet, and my sense of smell is pretty much the same.
Rants/Raves? I finally decided to stop temping. I googled how long people temp after getting a BFP and 99% of people say to stop because it makes you a crazy person, so I decided to do that. Today I am 17dpo and my usual LP was 17-18 days, so I feel pretty confident this is real....after 8 positive pregnancy tests.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I love the shoulder seasons where the temperature is perfect. I tend to prefer fall because of the leaves changing, but I don't like the dread of winter coming.
How are you feeling? Awful. Yesterday I was sent home from work because my boss watched me almost faint at an important event. Today I'm home resting. Going out tonight to buy sea bands, ginger gum, and anything else I can think of.
Rants/Raves? My husband is a saint. Rubbed my back while I threw up in a trash can yesterday, then cleaned the trash can for me. When getting ready for bed last night he brought me ginger ale, water, and saltines so I'd have them ready for the morning, and since we already knew I was staying home today, he brought our little TV up to the bedroom and hooked up the apple TV so I could watch netflix in bed all day. I love that man so much.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? My husband and I are ski instructors, so I love winter!! Won't be working this winter, obviously... :-/

TTC #1 since September 2015
How are you feeling? Feel okay this morning. Didn't sleep well and DD was kicking me all night so I moved to the couch.
Rants/Raves? Happy we got to see the heartbeat and that there is only one baby!
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? Fall/winter. I live in TX so it doesn't get that cold here but I love warm drinks and cozy clothes, boots, leggings and layering!
How far along are you? 5w3d
How are you feeling? I am too afraid to say out loud that I feel okay. I'm desperately trying to remember when the MS shit kicked in with my first pregnancy and it's just not coming to me. I remember making baked spaghetti, eating it, thinking it tasted delicious, and then promptly throwing it all up. So last night, I made lasagna and I was just hoping and praying that history did not repeat itself and thank God, it didn't. Boobs are sore, I'm a little tired, but mostly bloated.
Rants/Raves? Because of aforementioned bloat, I totally have a belly. Thank goodness long, flowy shirts are fashionable.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I love Fall and Spring. The transition seasons are the best because they're not so extreme.
July BMB May Signature Challenge
How are you feeling? Crummy. All day nausea is awful.
Rants/Raves? I am having so much trouble keeping up with my schoolwork. Whenever I try to read my textbook my nausea comes on full force.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I enjoy spring. It's lighter out earlier/later and I love cherry blossoms
How far along are you? 6w6d
How are you feeling? Awful. Traveling in Boston for husband's conference. Dying in the hotel room. Nausea. Vomitting. I thought my flight here yesterday was going to be my doom but I kept it together. A little crampy but more annoying than painful.
Rants/Raves? Rave: the immense soaker tub at my hotel here is amazing and I could live in it.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? Well I love them all but it's a toss up- Summer because I love to roast by our pool (SPF 50 is used!). And then fall- because I have super crazy curly hair & in the fall I can blow dry/straighten it without it frizzing an hour later.
How are you feeling? I feel not pregnant.
Rants/Raves? I'm in a foul mood. I just want the ultrasound tomorrow to be here already. I keep playing out situations in my head of the doctor finding a heartbeat and me yelling at him for suggesting that I might have a blighted ovum. Mostly I'm scared that we are having a missed miscarriage.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I love the shoulder seasons where it's still totally warm but not miserably hot. And I love spring blooms and fall colors.

Feel good. Had my first random emotional bout last night. Got cranky bc the dog was on the couch taking up my foot room but wouldn't let DH move him bc he's so cute and lovey. Then I put myself to bed and was better.
2 rants: People who are still in autumn - so jealous. In CO we have sunny coldness. That's it. Im struggling to adjust. Also, I'm not a doctor. Something happening you're nervous about? I don't know if it's ok - did you call your doc yet? I don't mind reading about it and sympathizing, giving well wishes, whatever, but I can't tell you if it's ok or not. Call your doctor! That's what they're there for. Oh, and if they make you feel bad for calling? They suck. Get a new doc.
I love the rain, whatever season it comes in.
How are you feeling? Physically, pretty good. Incredibly irritable though. I feel bad for my coworkers.
Rants/Raves? My coworkers! They're going through some rough times, which I feel for them on, but they've been bringing their problems into work and bringing everyone else down!
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? Summer, hot hot hot! I live in Key West so I get that basically all year round. I love to be on the water.
ETA: typos
Tired/horny @noelietrex haven't yet. I can't for the life of me remember when we resumed sex after BFP with my first pregnancy. I feel like my husband has been weirdly cautious w this pregnancy. Like he's expecting the worst. Which is weird because we don't have a history of loss and my first pregnancy was unremarkable.
Rave @megstervt 's Will Muschamp gif! Lmao! Are you a Gator? (I am)
Rant @dolewhipper same here. Zero f*cks to give.
Season: I would usually say summer but now that I live back down south I guess I'd say winter. I'm going to be miserable pregnant in July in Florida. Wahhhh
How are you feeling? Pretty good today, tired but that's normal. Plus I have a pain near my right overy, but I've had cysts before so it may be just that, or nothing at all who knows! I'm analyzing every little twinge these days.
Rants/Raves? I'm so hungry for foods that I can't currently get.
Season: fall and summer are almost tied but summer wins by a hair!
Edit: For some reason it only showed half of my post.
How far along are you? 4w2d
How are you feeling? I feel a little quesy, but still not sure if its due to a stomach bug I've been getting over or symptoms of pregnancy yet, seems a little early for it to be pregnancy related. Breast tenderness for sure though, and the bloating kicked in yesterday.
Rants/Raves? I have an awards dinner to go to tonight for work, my team is one of the top 3 for a big award. I tore apart my whole closet trying to find something that fit (since I gained weight prior to getting pregnant), doesn't put pressure on my bloated belly making me uncomfortable, and looks nice. Ugh. I wish I could just skip ahead to the part where it's ok to wear maternity clothes, they are so much more comfortable to me.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I love early fall (before all the leaves cover my entire yard and I have to rake constantly).
How are you feeling? Good just tired and slightly queasy here and there. Emotional-cried last night when my sister woke me from texts... At 9:30.... My DH and I just chuckled at me for the ridiculousness of it all.
Rants/Raves? Feeling large today. I really want to be as healthy as possible and have been eating lots of small things through the day- lots of fruits and veggies, dairy, and good protein. I'm eating healthier than usual so feel I shouldn't feel big. Today I put on a pencil skirt for work though, and it is not doing me any favors. Just frustrated. All I really care about is a happy healthy LO, but I read normal weight gain in the first tri would be like 2-4lbs. Sigh... Frustrated.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? Fall!!!!! I love the crisp cool weather and beautiful colors!
How are you feeling? Okay, I haven't had any big symptoms yet except just tired and really bloated, I already jumped up a size in pants and they are still too tight..... It might also be that I haven't worked out in like three months...
Rants/Raves? My pants, I really need to go buy some more slacks for work that will fit me without having to wear them unbuttoned. I just haven't had the energy to go shopping! Also, everything pisses me off, must be horomones!
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I'm a summer girl, growing up in Texas, I love the heat and the summer. I can't stand the cold... I once cried hysterically on a spring break trip to Colorado because we couldn't find our car, the whole parking lot got covered in snow up to the tops of the cars. I was cold and there was too much snow! Lol!
How far along are you? 4w5d
How are you feeling? I feel great other than needing a nap every other hour of the day...which is making work oh so fun/challenging depending on how you look at it!
Rants/Raves? I've been suffering through a really lovely sinus infection the past week so I feel wiped out, my boobs hurt and my 2 year old is forgetting how to sleep! Oh yea... and I just wish I could tell everyone why I'm so bitchy and tired lately
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I like summer and winter, I like extremes, I hate waking up when its freezing & I dress for freezing and then it turns out to be 70 degrees that day...!
DH (30) Me (29)
DD - Oct 2013
#2 - July 2016
How far along are you? 6 weeks + 2 days
How are you feeling? Pretty good. I have some mild pain in my abdomen, mild pain in my boobs, mild exhaustion, and mild nausea. But no major symptoms still. The only thing consistent is me waking up at 3:30am every morning thirty and having to pee.
Rants/Raves? I had my first doctor appointment yesterday and my cervix check tracked to about 6 weeks. I have my first ultrasound Friday. I'm both nervous and excited. Worried it's a little too early, and then I have to wait until December 9th for another one. We'll see how it goes!
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I love all the seasons. There's something special about each one, and I'm always ready for the next season to come. Right now I'm loving the lit fireplaces, holiday decor, fall attire, and smell of smoke in the cooler evenings outside.
How are you feeling? Morning sickness is the WORST! I'm not throwing up yet, but I feel it coming soon.
Rants/Raves? I don't have any complaints.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I LOVE fall/winter. I love the cold weather, I'm always having heat flashes (which are worst, now that I'm pregnant) and feeling the cold makes it better. I know, I'm crazy.
How far along are you? 6w2d
How are you feeling? i'm tired all the time and nauseous and i'm just sick of it all i want to go home at the end of the day and be able to play with my daughter not curled up on the couch trying not to vomit.
Rants/Raves? I was really upset with DH last night he made okonomiyaki and usually i really love it but it was not happening last night but i started really craving this one chinese dish from a local place but he wouldn't go get it for me. which i thought was really rude cause come on here i'm making a human. so i went to bed mad and hungry and burping.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? i love spring everything coming back to life
The nausea hit me so, so hard today. Ugh. And my boobs hurt.
Rants/raves: DH is being awesome and spoiling me and not caring when I lay around all day and don't clean while I'm not feeling good!
GTKY: I love summer for the freedom it brings to do whatever! And fall because it's so pretty and comfortable to be outside!
BFP #2 3/21 EDD 11/28/16
How are you feeling? For the most part, I feel fine! I am in middle of feeling worried and excited all at the same time. Just want to have the first doctors appointment so my mind can be eased a bit!
Rants/Raves? eh, really dont have any rants or raves today. Just wish I could be home in bed napping instead of in a cubicle!
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I love the fall when the leaves change, however, my favorite weather is warm weather. Something about being outside with a frozen drink in hand soaking in the rays that really gets me... sigh...
How are you feeling? Bitchy... That's all I've got
Rants/Raves? Anyone and everyone who says or does something stupid and to the lady who was teaching her daughter to steal toys from other babies at dance class this morning. Wtf?
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? Hot hot hot summer!
How are you feeling? Bitchy and bloated.
Rants/Raves? This 4 hour drive to a wedding this weekend.
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? Spring, it's not too hot yet and not too cool.
How far along are you? 6w2d
How are you feeling? Exhausted as usual. I had some cramps and brown spotting this morning. I felt a little better seeing all of the spotting posts this morning though. I am also ready to rip my boobs off. I am a DD normally and I am barely fitting into my bras. It's amazing how no one at work has commented about it yet (I have a lot of friends at work that I am friends with IRL, so it wouldn't be weird for a comment like that)
Rants/Raves? See above :-)
GTKY: What is your favorite season/type of weather? I love the summer for the warm weather and the beach (also super excited to take my first summer off from teaching summer school this summer!) and I love the winter for snowboarding and snow days from work :-)
