GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on?

Re: THURSDAY SYMPTOMS

  • How far along are you? 
    8 + 5

    How are you feeling? 
    Meh. Still not great...I really think I'd feel half normal again if I could just get some sleep. 

    Rants/Raves? 
    How is it not Friday yet?! 
    Also, a friend who I don't talk to often msg'd me this morning & asked if DH & I are having a baby....I replied "someday, yeah"....& now I am wondering which of my close friends blabbed (only a few know). It could be pure coincidence (I had commented on a picture she posted asking how far along she is), but the way she worded it seemed odd/funny. I'm sure I'm reading into this more than I should, lol. 

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on?
    Our honeymoon! We went to the Sandals resort in Grenada, & everything about that week was amazing

    How are you feeling? Okay so far today... I have more nighttime sickness than morning sickness though. I started with B6 + Unisom yesterday and it seems to be helping... We shall see!

    Rants/Raves? So excited for our next appt on Tuesday, just want to hear that everything is okay! I'm a much more paranoid mom to be than I had originally imagined.

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on? I have to agree with @DeePaddy24 and say my honeymoon in Antigua! We had this amazing bungalow over the water with a plunge pool... It was absolutely gorgeous!

    Excuse the pic of the pup, didn't mean to add him in there... Oops!

  • How far along are you?
    8w6d

    How are you feeling?
    No changes, still getting sick

    Rants/Raves?
    I took a nap when I got home yesterday. DH is working late tonight so I will probably be taking another nap when I get home tonight. Naps are my new best friend.

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on?
    I'd have to go with our honeymoon too. Alaska Cruise, helicopter onto a glacier, biking down a gorgeous Alaskan mountain, waking up to room service and a glacier/icebergs off the balcony. Amazing.
  • How far along are you? 
    11 + 3

    How are you feeling? 
    Still very tired. Nauseous and starving all the time. Emotionally, just can't wait to get further along and hopefully ease my mind.

    Rants/Raves? 
    I am so tired of being so tired. My normal energetic self (all concerned about a "fit pregnancy") can't get myself to do anything. Not exercise, not cook, no fun projects, no seeing friends. I can't even get myself to a support group (drive is 1+ hour in each direction) which could really help some of my anxiety related stuff about my choices on my infertility journey going on right now.

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on?
    Hmmm. When I was in my 20s, I went to India for a month for a wildlife conservation course. Pinnacle experience, riding on elephants, eating the food, engaging with the people.

  • Wow, you ladies have taken some pretty amazing vacations! Beautiful pictures.

    How far along are you? 8w1d

    How are you feeling? Good, just a little wave of MS this morning. So far, so good!

    Rants/Raves? It's Thursday aka almost Friday.

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on?

    Our honeymoon in Lake Tahoe was pretty incredible. However, I have to say my favorite vacation is our 2 week trip to Scotland, Belgium, and Italy we took early in the summer. Carefree adventures, food, drinks, history...loved it.
  • @Sgoldberg247 Hope you start feeling better soon. PS - naps are amazing.

    @KOR121 Glad your appt went well yesterday!! Did your doctor say why she thought it was a girl?

    @crdo Glad you're feeling better for the most part! Also, that sounds like one hell of a trip. Awesome.

    8+3

    How are you feeling? 
    My boobs have never been so sore in my life but that's about it so far.

    Rants/Raves? 
    Rave: First doctor appt/US today! I've been up since 5:30 and it's not until 2:30. 
    Rant: Had to come back and edit because I just weighed myself. I've managed to stay the same weight so far (was trying not to gain until 2nd tri because my BMI was at the high end of 'normal') and even though I haven't changed my diet/exercise I just weighed myself and I've somehow gained FIVE pounds in the past week! :( Of course right before 2 doctors' appts today. Plus hoping it's not a symptom of something other than major bloat.

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on?
    Not really a vacation, but DH and I stayed in a yurt for a weekend in a beautiful remote countryside area. It was even more romantic than our honeymoon (and was the weekend he proposed :)). We spent the weekend hiking, wine tasting, sitting by the fire and doing absolutely nothing in the middle of the mountains and didn't see another soul except when we emerged to go to the wineries. It was awesome.

  • @Knottie86418473 and @adiaz132003 FX for both of you at your appointments today! Let us know how everything goes.
  • How far along are you? 9w3d

    How are you feeling? Not bad today, just really tired. I did notice waking up sometimes that my nips are super super sensitive at night if they brush against anything.

    Rants/Raves? Meh...just waiting for the weekend - this week is dragging! Ouu, and also tonight we're getting awesome Indian food so I'll be thinking about that for the rest of the day....mmm...samosas!

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on?  Our honeymoon..well, half of it. @Sgoldberg247: Ditto on the Alaskan cruise! That was part of our honeymoon and it was amazing! We also did the bike down the mountain as one of our excursions...cold, but so fun!

    The glaciers, the scenery, the cruise food, the birdwatching. It was all amazing. I would love to go back and go to Denali National Park this time. The other half of our honeymoon was Portland, which was meh.

  • @mrsschmity doc said from the way the heartbeat sounded, not just just the BOM. Who knows. I've already told DH to be prepared for a girl :)
  • How far along are you? 11w5d

    How are you feeling? I have a massive headache and I feel so nauseous. I have threw up a few times this morning. :-(

    Rants/Raves? Excited for my dr. appt. today so I get to  see the little one. 

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on: Kauai and Maui
  • How far along are you? 10w 1d

    How are you feeling? Exhausted and totally cranky. I hate people right now, lol.

    Rants/Raves? I spilled my pineapple cup all over my pants at work this morning while trying to help a coworker who was simultaneously driving me crazy. Did I mention I was cranky?

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on? Ah, love this question. DH and I did a 2 week vacation to Europe this summer. Paris, Munich, Zurich & the Alps, Lake Como, and Milan. It was life changing. The culture, art, food (I'm gluten free but had no problem with wheat there!), the people, I loved it all. I wish I could move to France or Switzerland.
  • @BakerBird525 our first "half" was Seattle for 4 days. Not as good as the cruise but it was actually better than I had anticipated.
  • How Far Along Are You? 8 weeks today

    How are you feeling?  New this week:  headaches every morning that seem to last all day at work.. Does anyone know if I can take anything? or what foods help with headaches? 

    Rants/Ravs:  I keep waking up in the middle of the night and can't go back to bed for hours... plus having to go the bathroom 2-3 times at night doesn't help. So i am extra exhausted..

     What is your favorite vacation that you've been on? My Wedding in Rivera Maya, Mexico.. Great destination wedding../

  • @Sgoldberg247: We had pretty similar honeymoons then! Did you cruise out of Seattle? We flew into Anchorage > bus to Whittier > stops in Skagway, Juneau, and Ketchikan > ended in Vancouver > drove to Portland.

    My brother lived in Seattle so I've been there a few times. It's a pretty cool city.

    Yeah! We did a sightly different itinerary, flew into Seattle, did Seattle to Juneau, Juneau to Skagway, on the way from Skagway to Victoria we made a detour off the inner passage to the Sawyer Glacier where we hung around for 30-40 minutes, then headed to Victoria and back to Seattle. We looked at doing the longer 1 way trip to Anchorage but airfare went way up and then we wouldnt have had the money to do the excursions we wanted.
  • How far along are you? 10w

    How are you feeling? Emotional. I've cried more the last week than I have all year. I can't even remember all the reasons why.

    Rants/Raves? Acne - please don't blow up my face. I see you creeping in there....

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on? I love Newfoundland. It's so beautiful and there's so much to do - fishing, whale watching, hiking, drinking eating. LOVE it!! :)
  • How far along are you? Week 10  

    How are you feeling? I feel duped. I was feeling so much better then today, bam, nausea returns.

    Rants/Raves? I have to go to a dinner tonight where everyone is going to tell I'm not drinking and whether or not I'm pregnant is inevitably going to come up and there are people that are going to be there that I'm not wanting to tell until the 2nd tri. I'm annoyed at the situation.

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on?  My family used to go to Sunset Beach in NC every summer for years with a bunch of other families. Best vacation in the world. I would love to be there right now.
  • How far along are you? Not really sure. I'm supposed to be 8.5 weeks, but my ultrasound Tuesday looked like I might only be 7.5. We get another next Tuesday because she couldn't get a really great look. Yay tilted uterus. 

    How are you feeling? Right this second, fine. I had a baked potato. It was glorious. 

    Rants/Raves? My hubby brought home a dozen roses for me this afternoon. (Our anniversary was yesterday.) 

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on? I went on a trip in 2008 to visit my exchange sister in Austria. We traveled to Croatia and did a lot of historical sightseeing as well. 
  • @BabyHaro, so sorry you are having such bad headaches.  They have been on and off for me but they always seem really intense.  Tylenol is totally safe to take during pregnancy.  It's category B.  Hope this helps!

    How far along are you? 11+1

    How are you feeling? I feel pretty good.  Been having more cramping today than usual but nothing too strong, just more frequent. @MrsSmity what do your RLP feel like?  I think this MUST be what I'm experiencing.  Other than that, weird dreams, some fatigue, food aversions, bloating.

    Rants/Raves? Work is super overwhelming and I would love to take a sick day to rest, on occasion, but I would really dig myself a hole by missing one dang day...blah.

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on?  My DH and I went to Asheville for a great weekend when we first started dating and had a blast.  I think I like this one best because of the sentiments attached.  I think this trip is really when we fell in love with each other, truly.

    Pregnancy Ticker
  • @denny+lee For me, RLP almost feels like my muscles are pulling or stretching up and down the sides of my belly. Other times it's more like a sharp, quick twinge when I move or get up too quickly.
  • How far along are you? 10+2

    How are you feeling? Finally feeling half normal again. The nausea isn't as hard core and I've had the energy to do some stuff around the house...no nap today either!

    Rants/Raves? Found nuggets heartbeat this morning with my Sonoline investment! Such a sweet and amazing sound. I also recorded it in a video and sent it to my mom and MIL. They loved it!

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on? Breckenridge, Colorado- I live in Florida so beaches and boating are the norm. Breck was An amazing ski vacation- such a beautiful, small town.

  • How far along are you? 10w5d

    How are you feeling?
    Awful! Totally body chills and so so sore all over. Only a 99.1 temp so far so Dr. Said to just rest and keep hydrated.

    Rants/Raves?
    Hubby has been very helpful today in bringing me drinks and toast. He is not at all happy about this baby but at least he's being helpful.

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on?
    Arizona! I am so in love with that state. Sedona is just gorgeous.
  • How far along are you? 9w4d

    How are you feeling? Not good. I felt so great all week I decided to try to scale back my Diclectin (anti-nausea med) from 4 a day to 3 yesterday. Couldn't sleep last night (probably unrelated) and was super sick this morning. Then forgot to take my morning pill before I left the house...bad scene all around. Today sucks.

    Rants/Raves? My arms are extremely sore and I have no idea why. I've been working out more but it's all been leg stuff. What's your deal, arms?

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on? Probably the hiking trip I took with my husband right after we found out I was pregnant with our first. It was a perfect time to disconnect from the rest of the world and go do something cool, just the two of us. Wishing we had the opportunity to do something like that this time around but life is just crazy these days.
  • @Jessms326 your DH is not happy about the baby? I guess yours was an unplanned pregnancy? :( I hope I'm misunderstanding.

    Yes unplanned. We have only knows for about 2 weeks. He's getting a little better but has a long way to go.

  • How far along are you?
    12 weeks today, getting excited that trimester 2 is approaching quickly

    How are you feeling?
    Bloated! So very bloated. And a tad nervous. I've been having spotting throughout this pregnancy, midwife isn't concerned but it's always freaky!

    Rants/Raves?
    I'm finally feeling relief from my ms. But I think that's only because I'm taking 4 diclectin daily. I want to start reducing my dose but I am terrified that my violent vomiting will come back, it was definitely not fun!

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on?
    I spent a week in beautiful, friendly, Jamacia. It was such a friendly resort that we stayed at, very relaxing and fun all at the same time. I miss the air and the beach and the sea water and the atmosphere and the warmth! Ohhhhh and the COFFEE, seriously so good! Somebody please take me back!

  • Congrats @adiaz132003! Great news
  • @adiaz132003 that's great to hear!!
  • How far along are you? 11w6d

    How are you feeling? Sick. All the time. I've lost 12 pounds and finally got put on antinausea meds but they don't seem to be helping. I spend every day begging God to make the MS go away so I can actually enjoy my pregnancy.

    Rants/Raves? I'm a nanny and I'm so excited that my kids are on vacation visiting family so I have a week off.

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on? Well it wasn't actually a vacation, it was a missions trip, but still... This summer I went to Turkey. I fell in love with the beautiful country and its incredible people. I'm pretty sure I left part of my heart there.
  • Just squeaking this in before it's Friday :tired_face:

    How far along are you? 11w4d

    How are you feeling? So good!!! I am so relieved that I seem to be over the worst of the first trimester. Hang in there, ladies! The end is in sight! I've felt so great today and gotten so much done. Makes me not feel so bad about being a couch bum for the last six weeks. :)

    Rants/Raves? So I had an ultrasound today which was so fun. It was a follow-up to some concerning things the Dr saw on my 8 week ultrasound, which I had because I was bleeding. Everything looked great and concerning things are over. I am so relieved and happy... And in love with this cute little baby! I could not believe the difference from three weeks!! Also, Baby was measuring ahead of schedule, at 12w2d. Not sure if they will change my due date, or just check again at 20 weeks?

    GTKY: What is your favorite vacation that you've been on? Hawaii honeymoon. We live in the frozen north and got married in January. I always wanted a winter wedding, and it worked well with all the college student siblings schedules. But I did not want a winter honeymoon!!! The worst part was having to come home, to a blizzard. :neutral:
