How far along are you? 6 weeks
How big is baby? Blueberry
Upcoming appointments this week? None
Any new symptoms or changes? Tiny bit of nausea when I'm hungry or get heartburn. Diarrhea. EXHAUSTION.
Rants/Raves/Questions? This past weekend was so insanely exhausting that I went to bed at 7 last night. I feel the same amount of tired despite the sleep.
GTKY: Lets talk mother's intuition! Do you just "know" what you're having? I didn't have much of a feeling with my son but for some reason I'm feeling so confident this is a girl. Maybe because I have a little bit of nausea this time vs last time? No idea, I just feel it's a girl.
How big is baby? Appleseed
Upcoming appointments this week? Nope.
Any new symptoms or changes? Headaches have begun, they're pretty brutal.
Rants/Raves/Questions? Nothing.

I am the worst with this, with each of my three girls I thought they were boys each time, not because that's what I wanted necessarily, it was just my hunch. I have no clue this time.
How big is baby? Appleseed
Upcoming appointments this week? Third beta on Friday
Any new symptoms or changes? Nope. My breasts are just slightly sore (I notice it more at night) and I've only had nausea once. I'm not over exhausted or puking everywhere which is nice but it leaves me not feeling very pregnant.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I can't wait to feel the baby move but I know I've got a while before that happens. I had to come off of my melatonin cold turkey for baby and so far it's going good. TW - I lost my dad in February and developed really bad insomnia because of his passing so I've had to be on something to sleep - End TW.
GTKY: Lets talk mother's intuition! Do you just "know" what you're having? I have no clue but I have had dreams over the years of me raising boys so I guess we'll see if the dreams come true. It honestly doesn't matter to me whether its a boy or girl as long as s/he is healthy.

How big is baby? Blueberry/ sweet pea/ grain of rice / lady bug (funny how all the apps are so different)
Upcoming appointments this week? First meeting with new midwife/ dating scan
Any new symptoms or changes? Nothing yet
Rants/Raves/Questions? No school yesterday, usually fun.. yesterday was awful!
GTKY: Lets talk mother's intuition! Do you just "know" what you're having? We are team green this time we don't want to know until delivery, but I keep spotting little similarities from my last pregnancy... that resulted in a girl.
How big is baby? Sesame Seed
Upcoming appointments this week? 1st meeting with the midwife (what even happens at a consultation? We interview each other, but do they check anything or is that a totally seperate appt?)
Any new symptoms or changes? SO tired! I was traveling full time at this point while expecting DD so I would just go to my hotel room and crash after dinner, thinking nothing of it. Being home, having responsibilities and a toddler makes the exhaustion feel like a whole new thing
Rants/Raves/Questions? None yet. I'm sure I will have some, but right now I don't feel pregnant
GTKY: Lets talk mother's intuition! Do you just "know" what you're having? I feel like I'm having a girl because I feel like I did last time. I had a dream last time where I saw my baby girl, then I found out for sure at my anatomy scan. My U/S tech said, as funny as it sounds, the most consistent correct guesses were based on the Mom's intuition; not heart rate, orientation in the uterus, Chinese gender predictor or any of the rest of the old wive's tales.

How big is baby? sweet pea
Upcoming appointments this week? First midwife appointment on Thursday.
Any new symptoms or changes?
Tired, and nauseous.
Rants/Raves/Questions? My daughter is 2.5 and suddenly feels like she has discovered the terrible 2's! She doesn't want to listen which makes this already tired mama exhausted! Preganancy is so much harder with a toddler!
GTKY: Lets talk mother's intuition! Do you just "know" what you're having?
No idea, just hoping for a healthy baby! I would be happy with a girl or boy.
How big is baby? Appleseed
Upcoming appointments this week? I had my bloods taken today in preparation for visit to the OBGYN
Any new symptoms or changes? I felt spewy this morning but I woke up at 5am for a work meeting so it's possibly that ... I'm not a morning person !
Rants/Raves/Questions?
I went to a naturopath who basically told me off for being overweight and told me all these negative things that I don't even want to repeat. I have a BMI of 33 ATM..
Feeing bad about this but there is nothing I can do now but start eating healthy and hope things work out.
Does anyone know of other bigger women who have delivered safely? Do their OBGYNs tell them off?
I weigh more now than I did when I was 9m pregnant with my son.

I'm certain I am having a girl.
I was certain last time I was having a girl and I was wrong. But this time I'm sure of it! I feel it in my bones!
Hopefully get to use the girl's name I had planned.
I'm sorry you didn't have a pleasant experience with the nutritionist, but I think you'll be just fine.
(Sorry for late response, I am a bit of a technophobe...Didn't quite get how this works)
I'll look into the low carb diet and perhaps see another dietician.
It was a Naturopath i was...she basically told me i needed 1000 vitamins.
