    How far along are you? 7 weeks. I feel so far behind the rest of you ladies since I'm due at the end of August!

    How big is baby? Blueberry

    Upcoming appointments this week? Yes! My dating appt and first ultrasound. Super excited/nervous since I'm a PGAL-er. 

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? Nausea has set in for real as of last week. I need to eat to stop it but no food sounds appealing to me. It's like I'm stuck in an endless loop of nausea, must eat, can't eat, repeat. Today's my first day back at work since it's been worse so I'm going to try some sea bands and ginger ale and see if that helps. I've also had these weird half burps half hiccups randomly throughout the day that are so loud and I cannot suppress them as much as I try. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  None. Just excited/nervous for my appointment on Friday!

    GTKY:  What is your go to drink? (Either alcoholic or nonalcoholic) alcoholic- vodka soda with a splash of cranberry-so basic, I know.  Nonalcoholic- birch beer (if it's available)

    How far along are you? 

    9 weeks

    How big is baby? 

    The size of a toy jack. 

    Upcoming appointments this week? 

    I've got a class today at my OB and my first appointment on Wednesday. 

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? 

    The nausea is getting worse. It makes me nervous to go to work. I'm thankful I only have to attempt it two days a week, but I hate getting there only to get sick and have to leave. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  

    Not now.

    I'm usually a water person, but I do enjoy a cold glass of milk.

    How big is baby? Raspberry 

    Upcoming appointments this week? None. Had my appointment last Friday. Everything is looking good and right on track.

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? Insomnia, boobies are out of control... craving chicken soup and lime.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  My daughter has a cold right now... she goes into these non-stop coughing attacks during the middle of the night... (my insomnia trigger)... I'm already dreading when both DD and baby are sick at the same time... will have to do a lot of praying for patience.

    GTKY:  What is your go to drink? (Either alcoholic or nonalcoholic) Alcoholic: Sweet fruity pink wine... Non: Use to be Coke but this baby refuses it... so at the moment water or Gatorade!

    How big is baby? The size of the One Ring (DH and I are HUGE LOTR fans so we love this right now haha)

    Upcoming appointments this week?  Tomorrow, the 10th, I have my next ultrasound :)

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? I got meds for my nausea so that has saved me at work! I'm still craving salty foods so that doesn't help my bloat when I eat all the salt haha

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  DH is gone this week for work so he's sad to miss the doctor appointment. I'm just hoping that all goes well so I can send him some awesome picture updates!

    GTKY:  What is your go to drink? (Either alcoholic or nonalcoholic) This all depends:
    A casual night out: I love a good beer
    Having a few drinks with friends: vodka, water, lemon
    Getting crazy: margaritas and tequila shots!
    During this pregnancy: ginger ale haha

    How big is baby? blueberry

    Upcoming appointments this week? still trying to get a pregnancy confirmation appointment to set up prenatal care at the village clinic.

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? fewer symptoms, which makes me worry. So tired though. If it weren't for work and family I would happily sleep 12-14 hours a day.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  Meh. Rant I guess. I LOVE with sparkles and sunshine my little Alaskan village. I have never been so happy, my family has never been so happy. I would love love love to add to my family having babies here. But I am annoyed and little scared that we have virtually NO medical care here. We have a village clinic staffed by a health aide, although we currently do not have a full time health aide. I want prenatal care. I want to talk to a nurse or a midwife or a doctor or SOMETHING. According to people in the village I can get care here and I can get care in the nearest hub village. According to my insurance I have to fly to Anchorage. Trying to get it figured out is a pain.

    GTKY:  What is your go to drink? (Either alcoholic or nonalcoholic) NonAlcoholic - Coffee. As I am switching soon to a GD prevention Keto diet (I am 100lbs overweight. I do not need to gain for baby to be healthy!) BPC - coffee with heavy cream (if I can get it) a little butter, a little coconut oil. It keeps me full, lets me take my prenatal, and keeps me from throwing up. Alcoholic - well my hubby had bought me a bottle of Jameson that I gave back to him unopened when my test came back positive... a gin and tonic with a twist, a dirty martini, whiskey and cream, whiskey sour... or a nice hard cider. I'm a country girl :)

    How big is baby? 1/2 lego block

    Upcoming appointments this week? Not until next week. I can't wait!

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? My boobs are still sore and "full". Sometimes I get random sharp pains low in the pubic area. Not sure what it means, but hopefully it is nothing. No blood or spotting, so I am hoping it is nothing to worry about.

    How far along are you? 8 weeks 

    How big is baby? Raspberry baby

    Upcoming appointments this week? No...anticipating my next appointment on the 28th of this month. 

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? Nausea is full throttle, more emotional, less interested in people. This baby is just exasperating my already usual annoyed moody self. I'm craving anything sweet because of the nauseas taste I have in my mouth all day. 

    Rants: Are all men dumb...nuff said

    Raves: I'm so excited to see the changes between 6 weeks and 11!

    Questions?: Can I pack up and run away?..I'm tired of adulting...

    GTKY:  What is your go to drink? (Either alcoholic or nonalcoholic) Currently water with lemon juice and ice/Sparkling Cranberry/Red Gatorade

    @szwill86 saame for the nausea, must eat, can't eat loop. Horrible.

    How far along are you? 9 weeks

    How big is baby? Raspberry

    Upcoming appointments this week? No

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? No, still just frustrating bouts of nausea. Sometimes sore boobs. Sometimes cramping. Anyone else this pre-pregnancy: man, it's going to be great to not have my period for that long. No one told me that so far it's been like having period symptoms for a month. At least that's what the cramping makes me feel.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  We've had vacation planned for the end of this month and I'm so nervous I'm not going to be able to enjoy anything.

    GTKY:  What is your go to drink? (Either alcoholic or nonalcoholic) Red wine or a G&T. Non-alcoholic.. used to be coffee always, but coffee has sounded so gross lately. Ughhhhhh.

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? I'M SO FREAKING IRRITABLE AND TIRED!! I'm sure they go hand in hand, but I literally want to scream at everyone.

    Arnold Palmer, or tequila!
