So it's a day late, but I never saw one started...
What's new with baby (how far along are you, size, development)?
Even though it's early, is there anything you're doing to plan/get ready for the baby's arrival?
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions:
When is your next appointment?

Re: Saturday ticker change 6.11
Even though it's early, is there anything you're doing to plan/get ready for the baby's arrival? Still trying to do the same things as always. Nothing new or interesting.
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: Almost no symptoms still. But I've gotten used to what I do have. I feel like in dealing with it well. Nearly have told a couple friends a few times. That's getting harder. And I've noticed I now have a blump... but my weight hasn't really changed. Hmm..
When is your next appointment? First appt is July 5th. So far away. I'm just doing the best I can until then.
GTKY: What is your favorite meal? I wrote this and have no idea. Probably fondue. We do it ourselves at home. A nice chicken broth based for cooking. And have shrimp, lobster, scallops, and steak. With a couple cream cheeses - like chive and onion for dipping. A big salad and of course bread and cheese. IF we eat desert normally is chocolate with strawberries, bananas, and angel food cake. Or strawberry short cake.
We do this every year for my dad's b-day. It's awesome! And any special occasions we feel like it.
7 weeks - baby is the size of blueberry and developing kidneys.

Nothing major at the moment since we are in search of a new house. Although I think this week I'm going to open up a savings account and dedicate 5% of my checks to it to prep for baby expenses and just to have once I got on maternity leave.
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions:
None quite yet. So far my symptoms haven't been too bad. Although I'm starving right now but nothing is sounding appealing.
When is your next appointment?
My next appointment is on Thursday for my first ultrasound.
GTKY: What is your favorite meal?
This one is hard. We eat a lot of Mexican food but I think our favorite would be seafood. DH and I love crab like no other. My in-laws were in town a few weeks ago and we did a full on crab boil with whole crabs, shrimp, and mussels. So good!

9 weeks baby is the size of a cherry
Even though it's early, is there anything you're doing to plan/get ready for the baby's arrival?
Not yet we have to move, so when we do I guess I will start then.
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions:
Main symptoms right now are constipation and horrible acne
When is your next appointment?
June 24th... getting closer
GTKY: What is your favorite meal?
I love steak and sweet potatoes right now. Yumm!
Due 1/21/17
10 weeks - size of a strawberry
Even though it's early, is there anything you're doing to plan/get ready for the baby's arrival?
reading about stuff. Several years back when we bought our house, my mom gave me 5-6 big boxes of baby stuff (toys, clothes, bedding, etc). We finally sorted through all of that to see what of it was usable.
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions:
The past week or two I've been feeling pretty good (yay!). My biggest symptoms right now are sore boobs, bouts of fatigue and acne.
When is your next appointment?
This coming Friday.
GTKY: What is your favorite meal?
Don't have a go to favorite. Pizza is always good. We made chicken fajitas with guacamole last week and it hit-the-spot! I always love chocolate chip cookies and ice cream (together or separate - ha).
What's new with baby (how far along are you, size, development)? I was 7 weeks Saturday, baby is the size of a blueberry.
Even though it's early, is there anything you're doing to plan/get ready for the baby's arrival? Nothing really yet. I started browsing baby furniture and gear online here and there.
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions: The meat aversion is strong. I haven't had any real sickness, but certain foods and smells I just can't even think about. My boobs are still slightly sore, sometimes more than others. And still with the exhaustion.
When is your next appointment? Thursday!! Our first ultrasound. Really hoping all is well.
GTKY: What is your favorite meal? Under normal circumstances, chicken parmesan is my go-to meal. But right now, chicken is one of the things I can't even imagine eating. So if we are talking about today, I'd go with buttered noodles.

So I think there's only 4 of us that change Saturday, and I say we do what we want. If we want to post early or late, maybe we do. Or just be ok and accept it'll be late often. What do you guys think? Is it too tough to actually post it on Saturday?

What's new with baby (how far along are you, size, development)?
I was 8 weeks Saturday an baby is the size of a jelly bean or raspberry

Just pinning a ton of stuff on Pinterest lol
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions:
Still haven't been sick. No cravings or aversions. I have sore boobs and I'm tired. Hopefully I'm just lucky but part of me is worried that I'm not having more symptoms, even though I know it can be normal.
When is your next appointment?
My very first appointment is today! It's the hour long bloodwork/medical history etc. Really hoping for an ultrasound but I don't know if that is happening today or not.
Then my next appointment is on June 22nd with my midwife.
GTKY: What is your favorite meal?
I am big on Mexican food and Greek food.

-- It's a BOY! ---
So it's a day late, but I never saw one started...
What's new with baby (how far along are you, size, development)?
7 weeks
Even though it's early, is there anything you're doing to plan/get ready for the baby's arrival?
no not yet. I think after the ultrasound appt on 6/21 MAYBE.... I did have the thought that we could start cleaning out the nursery in July sometime, but we won't find out what baby is (girl/boy) til almost September so idk how much well do. For DD I had a theme picked out that worked for both, not sure I will this time so I think that puts me a bit behind.
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions:
i have had nausea and pretty bad exhaustion not helped by having a 1 year old. Also my mouth is constantly salivating. Food aversions are kicking in too.
When is your next appointment?
I have one tomorrow but it's mostly paperwork.
GTKY: What is your favorite meal?
Pizza we love pizza.
I am 7 weeks 2 days (changed on Saturday), LO is the size of a blueberry and is developing kidneys.
Even though it's early, is there anything you're doing to plan/get ready for the baby's arrival?
TBH not too much yet, I did get a pregnancy book and am trying to keep up with it but we're moving in 2 weeks and I'm trying to pack while doing my usual SAHM "watch the 1 year old while keeping up with housework"thing and that's keeping me pretty busy at the moment! Haha I've got plenty of time though!
Rant/rave/symptoms/questions:
Rant - definitely starting to feel more tired and I'm very sad I can't just sleep it off since I have to care for DD. When I was pregnant with her I was in grad school and it was much easier to keep on top of my work while tired than it is to try to keep up with her!
Rave - no MS yet! Never really got it with DD and am hoping for the same this time around
When is your next appointment?
June 24.
GTKY: What is your favorite meal?
ok so I am always up for pizza! But my go to meal that I make myself is penne pasta topped with green and red peppers and kielbasa. So easy and so yummy!
