How are you feeling: terrible! Nausea has been awful since last week. Nauseous when I'm hungry and feel like I'm gonna puke when I do eat. It's exhausting. Finally over a cold, but still battling the congestion which isn't helping the situation. Also have been crampy on and off this past week, but I've been bad with my water intake so trying to be better!
Rants/Raves/Questions: This nausea is kicking my butt, but so excited to hit 9 weeks today! End of the first tri. is in sight!
GTKY what is your favorite holiday and why: Christmas Eve. I'm Italian so it's a big deal in my family. We all get together, have delicious food (lobster, shrimp yummm) and just enjoy the company
How are you feeling: I feel pretty good. I have started fighting through the exhaustion and picking back up on a light work out routine and it is helping tons. I don't get as exhausted during the day anymore.
Rants/Raves/Questions: My laptop for work came in yesterday morning but our facilities manager is taking his sweet time distributing the packages. As soon as I get it I can work from home so I need him to get a move on it! Every time I try to stop by and ask him for it he is no where to be found.
GTKY What is your favorite holiday and why: Christmas. My DH and I both moved out of state from our families. We live in TX, my family is in Boston and his family is in Louisiana so we dont get to see them very often. But at Christmas we get to see both of our families every year. And I love giving gifts so its a win win, I cant wait to do it this year with a baby!!!
How are you feeling: I thought I got lucky and avoided morning sickness, however this week it has hit hard only it is afternoon and evening. That combined with headaches every morning I have been a real joy.
Rants/Raves/Questions: When will my energy come back? I can't get anything done and I haven't been to the gym in over a week!
GTKY What is your favorite holiday and why: Probably Christmas Eve/Christmas Day. We get to spend time with both DH's family and my family.
GTKY What is your favorite holiday and why: I have always loved Halloween! I am just so tickled to be expecting an October baby, Halloween themed birthday parties are going to be so much fun!
How are you feeling: Tired with some acid reflux, but overall pretty lucky to avoid the dreaded MS. I didn't have it with my DD, so I'm hoping to get lucky again!
Rants/Raves/Questions: My daughter wakes up around 6am and then we let her sleep in bed with us until 7am...lately she has been burrowing herself so that the bulk of her weight is directly on my neck. I don't even know how she does it! But my neck is now killing me.
GTKY What is your favorite holiday and why: Thanksgiving bc it's my birthday, and Fourth of July because it's just the best!
How are you feeling: So very nauseous this morning, with a bit of a headache. It's the first day I'm having trouble hiding it at work.
Rants/Raves/Questions: I have my second ultrasound tomorrow, first was at 5 +1 and all we saw was a sack. Hoping for a baby this time, and if I'm lucky a heartbeat. Both nervous and excited!
GTKY What is your favorite holiday and why: Christmas for sure. We've always had a big Christmas Eve party with all our family and friends and it's such a positive holiday for me.
Week: 8 (though I have an ultrasound on Friday so I'm sure this will change)
How are you feeling: gross. I took the day off of work in an attempt to sleep off whatever nonsense my immune system is going through. But I imagine it could still be a lot worse, so I'll count myself lucky.
Rants/Raves/Questions: I'm in the process of fighting off allergies which are slowly morphing
into a sinus infection, and all I want are the good drugs and I can't
have them *insert the whiniest of whines* Also, halfway through my
cereal, my body decided I no longer needed any of that in my stomach and
now I'm extra whiny about not being able to finish breakfast. But yay! 2 more days until my dr appt!
GTKY What is your favorite holiday and why: My favorite holiday as a child was Halloween. I would think of costume ideas like 6 months in advance. My mom made me this amazing moose costume (hence my screen name) for my first Halloween; I was a black widow spider, Cleopatra's mummy, zombie Marie Antoinette... As an adult it's not as fun, but I think I'll love it again once I get to start dressing up my child.
How are you feeling: Bone-crushingly exhausted, with some minor nausea thrown in during the late afternoons. Overall though, not too bad!
Rants/Raves/Questions: We had a great ultrasound on Monday, now I just have to keep myself from losing my mind until the NT scan in a month. PGAL brain why you so paranoid??
GTKY What is your favorite holiday and why: Thanksgiving HANDS DOWN. I love fall weather, I love the long weekend, I love the food and I love how it's a family get-together but waaaay less stressful than Christmas.
