  • How far along are you?
    7 weeks

    How big is baby?
    Size of a blueberry :)

    Upcoming appointments this week or appointments made?
    Not until Oct 24

    Any new symptoms or changes?
    Morning sickness started getting worse this week. Two things I found to help the nausea are flavored water (Aquifina sparkling and La Croix are my favorite) and original Pringles.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?
    I am dreading going to an all day workshop tomorrow. The topic is bland and I doubt the speaker can make the topic interesting.

    GTKY: What is something you're not so good at? What is something you are good at?
    I can't whistle, at all. I've tried many different ways, but I just can't do it. Something I am semi good at is sewing. I like making simple lap blankets.

    Upcoming appointments this week or appointments made?
    First appt tomorrow excited/nervous for u/s!
    Any new symptoms or changes?
    Still just sick and food is gross.
    Rants/Raves/Questions?
    Excited to have an awesome appt so I can reveal to family over the weekend and flying home Monday so we will announce to my mom dad and sister in person! 
    GTKY: What is something you're not so good at? What is something you are good at?
    Not a good storyteller I always assume people know more than they do about what I'm talking about and doesn't work out. Something I'm good at is creative artsy stuff! I graduated with a bachelor's degree in visual art! 


  • How far along are you? 9 weeks? I haven't had my first appointment yet,  so I'm guessing based off my LMP. 

    How big is baby? Cherry

    Upcoming appointments this week or appointments made? FINALLY have my first appointment on the 11th. Feeling anxious! 

    Any new symptoms or changes? Skin is really dry, which is odd for me. Normally I have oily skin. Nausea comes in waves

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Eff the exhaustion. I'm practically a zombie unless I get like 10 hours of sleep a night. On vacation as of Saturday, and the thing I'm looking forward to the most is sleep. 

    GTKY: What is something you're not so good at? What is something you are good at?

    Um, I suck at math. Like badly. Calculators for life. 

    I'm pretty decent with a camera. :) 

  • Hi ladies. I had my first ultrasound on Monday, and they switched my due date, so I'm joining you on Thursdays now!

    How far along are you
    7 weeks

    How big is baby? Blueberry

    Upcoming appointments this week or appointments made? Just had my intake today and have my 12-week set up for early November

    Any new symptoms or changes? I'm hungry all the time and have to eat every couple hours to keep the nausea at bay...but now, it just hurts to eat. I can only eat very small amounts before my stomach cramps up too much, even though I very much want to keep eating. Other than that, I'm just very uncomfortable. I officially need some bigger pants for work.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? I have a rave for my OBGYN. I was initially worried about having my concerns addressed when I was trying to get my first appointments set up. As it turns out, I just don't think they could really tell me much of anything before I was an official patient. They got me in for an early ultrasound because of all the spotting I've been having, and my intake appointment today went really well. I'm feeling much better about being able to contact them anytime and having my worries addressed. Phew

    GTKY: What is something you're not so good at? What is something you are good at? I'm good at cross stitch. Love it! I'm such an old lady on the inside. Not so good at being social. I hate being forced into talking.

    Upcoming appointments this week or appointments made? I have a "pregnancy confirmation" appointment with my gynecologist tomorrow (she does not practice OB). I don't know that it's totally necessary since I've POAS about a dozen times already xD but I want to get more information about my endometriosis, in case I need it when I go to my new OB on Oct 24. 

    Any new symptoms or changes? I've started to get mild headaches in the afternoons, and I'm having some occasional gas pains. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Still no M/S. While I'm not complaining- it worries me.

    GTKY: What is something you're not so good at? What is something you are good at? I'm not good at networking or staying in touch with friends that live far away. I wish I was better at that. I'm good at excel (sorry that's a boring one lol).

    How big is baby? Strawberry

    Upcoming appointments this week or appointments made? Next appt is on 10/11. I'll have an u/s (yay!) and get blood work done to determine if we're team blue or pink (come OOOOOOOOOOOOON, team blue!).

    Any new symptoms or changes? No changes, really. I keep thinking my hunger has subsided and then I have a day like yesterday where I literally ate every hour.

    GTKY: What is something you're not so good at? What is something you are good at? I'm on the same train as @SparkySunDevil - calculators for LIFE! I'm pretty good at sarcasm....does that count?

    Rants/Raves/Questions?

    GTKY: What is something you're not so good at? What is something you are good at? I am not good at running. I can walk really fast and jog some, but I can't run for the life of me. I am very good at dancing Latin music and crocheting.

  • How far along are you? 10 weeks... Again! haha  :) My initial EDD was 4/29 based on my LMP, but a dating scan (done yesterday) pushed me back until 5/4. 

    How big is baby? A strawberry

    Upcoming appointments this week or appointments made? Had a dating scan yesterday, and it was so cool to see baby! It finally made things feel more "real" for me. 

    Any new symptoms or changes? Occasional nausea started this week, but otherwise my other symptoms are starting to subside a little. Had terrible fatigue, moodiness, sore breasts, and bloating/constipation weeks 5-9. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Not at the moment... 

    GTKY: What is something you're not so good at? What is something you are good at? @mcvgal LOL that is the story of my life!! I just say it because I was in the Army Reserve from 2003 to 2009, and I could never ever get good at running no matter how much I tried those miserable 6 years. I've simply always been too slow. But I'm good with money! No matter what challenges my husband throws at me haha. 
  • EDD May 4th, May 11th, May 18th, May 25th 

    How far along are you? 7 weeks. I was previously a Monday ticker changer but my u/s on Tuesday put me
    at 6w5d instead of the 6w1d I thought I was.

    How big is baby? Sounds like blueberry. I think TB changed the fruits from when I was PG with DD.

    Upcoming appointments this week or appointments made? Another u/s next week to see if my perigestational bleed is subsiding - my GYN is doing all this still. Then my official first appt with the OB is the week after.

    Any new symptoms or changes? Nausea is kicking in. Yay.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Work is getting so much worse. I forgot how hard it was to try to work through first tri exhaustion and nausea, not to mention coffee and even tea not being appetizing anymore.

    GTKY: What is something you're not so good at? What is something you are good at? Not good at so many things - volleyball and similar
    sports with balls, telling stories and jokes. Good at nerdy "smart" stuff, cooking, dance, and anything that requires extreme attention to detail - somehow I get a kick out of that, don't ask.

  • Edd May 25th

    How far along are you
    ? 7 weeks (+1 day as I didn't have time to post yesterday)

    How big is baby? Blueberry

    Upcoming appointments this week or appointments made? We have our first appointment and ultrasound on Wednesday the 12th

    Any new symptoms or changes? Still tired and slightly more moody than normal. Thirsty, peeing all the time, some waves of nausea but mostly when I go long periods without eating.

    Rants/Raves/Questions? My best friend just sent her her ultrasound pic and told me she is 8 weeks! I am so excited to be (potentially) having little ones a week or so apart!! :smiley:

    GTKY: What is something you're not so good at? What is something you are good at? I am terrible at lying, which is good or bad depending on the situation...but makes it very hard to keep this pregnancy a secret! And I'm good at taking responsibility for things, even if it wasn't technically my fault...which makes me good at my job. I have broad shoulders and can admit when I am wrong, though I'm sure MH would say otherwise!
