    How far along are you? 
    10 weeks!

    How big is baby? 
    The size of a strawberry

    Upcoming appointments this week?
    None this week.

    Any new symptoms or changes?
    The nausea has mostly subsided. I still have some major food aversions and I'm so gassy it makes things uncomfortable. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?
    I haven't had any questions and I feel like I should. It all still seems so surreal even after my ultrasound 2 weeks ago where I saw baby and heard the heartbeat. My doctors are really good at explaining, but are there questions you think a FTM should be asking? I'm sure I'll have more as t continues to set in. 

    GTKY: How did you meet your DH/SO?
    We met in high school! He picked on me my first year and half before asking me out. This February we'll have been together for 8 years (!) and married since May. 

    Edit because The Bump cut me off.

    Rants/Raves/Questions
    While I'm very grateful for my wonderful OB, it ticks me off that i havnt had an appointment at all yet. He does an ultrasound at the first appt and I'm soo anxious to see a healthy little heartbeat.

    GTKY How did you meet your DH/SO?
    DH's BILs family has been family friends since forever, going back to the grandparents.. My SIL (DHs sis) knew i fancied him... set us up and the rest is history! Our second wedding anniversary is coming up in Feb:)

    Trying to figure out how to keep my 3 year old occupied if I have to bring her to an OB appointment without DH. Suggestions? 
    GTKY: How did you meet your DH/SO?

    How big is baby? Strawberry 

    Upcoming appointments this week? Nope

    Any new symptoms or changes? Pretty easy pregnancy thus far, which worries me. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? None

    GTKY: How did you meet your DH/SO?
    In a bar in Rio de Janeiro. I'm Brazilian and my American husband was on vacation. We got married the day we met a year later after being physically together for only a few months. 

  • How far along are you? 

    10 weeks, but I have a feeling I might be moved to a later due date at a future ultrasound. For now I will take their word and hang here though! 
    How big is baby? 
    Strawberry 
    Upcoming appointments this week?
    No! I had an intake at 8 weeks and they didn't even attempt to check for heartbeat. I have an NT scan on 2/6 and can't wait!
    Any new symptoms or changes?
    Dreaming of when this nausea/food aversions will go away. Hoping I don't have to wait until 16 weeks like with DD1.
    Rants/Raves/Questions?
    I hate not telling everybody at work. On many occasions I have just wanted to let people know that "I'm freaking pregnant and nauseous and moody AF!"
    GTKY: How did you meet your DH/SO?
    At work in 2008. We both still work there and are on baby #3. We are in separate divisions and on different floors so it works.

    DD#1: 5/29/12

    DD#2: 1/14/15

    Baby #3 on the way due 8/19/17

  • @Leni410 can you take books along for him/her?  Or, when all else fails, that is one time I let DD watch videos on my phone. She calms right down ;)

  • I have a question/rant that I forgot to put in my post.  Are any of you more moody than before?  This is 2nd pregnancy and with my first I was just so happy and nothing ever made me mad.  With this pregnancy, I am just so bitchy and the littlest things just piss me off.  It kind of annoys me!

  • @sgrant432
    Yes, I am way more moody this time!!  I'm chalking it up to the fact that my hormones are crazy, but I'm also dealing with a teething toddler (3 canines at once--ahhh!), so I literally get no free time to myself.  It would make anyone moody! lol.


    Pregnancy Ticker


  • @sgrant432 I've never been this moody in my life. I feel bad for DH (kind of, but not really, more bad for poor nauseous tired gassy me, hehe). Most of my rage is silently directed at co-workers...

    DD#1: 5/29/12

    DD#2: 1/14/15

    Baby #3 on the way due 8/19/17

  • @donehue I kinda feel bad for my husband too!  Most of mine seems to be directed at him but usually under my breath as I walk out of a room!

  • @bumpybump books could work. 9/10 if I give her the phone or tablet she is harassing me constantly for a different show or game. 
  • @sgrant432 I seem to have a much shorter fuse this time around.

    Any new symptoms or changes? I thought the nausea was gone and then my husband mentioned mushrooms 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? My due date was changed (hence why I am on the Saturday ticker change thread now) even though I know when I ovulated! Urgh. I just changed it so that my weeks correspond with my doctor's. 

    GTKY: How did you meet your DH/SO? 
    We met at his Frat party and ended up dancing for 3 hours together. He facebook stalked me and got my AIM username and then asked me out over instant messenger. Oh the days of AOL...

    How big is baby? 
    a lime

    Upcoming appointments this week?
    Nope and my next one got moved back a week.

    Any new symptoms or changes?
    No, My morning sickness lasted until 18 weeks last time around so I think I will probably be stuck with it for a while longer.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?
    DS preschool follows the school district for snow days.  7 out of 11 school days since winter break have been snow days.  I am so ready to get back into a regular routine.  

    GTKY: How did you meet your DH/SO?
    We met in college on a department trip to Mexico.  He was a grad student and I was an undergrad in a very small major.  He says we met before that but I don't remember it, so I always just say Mexico.  Plus it gives people wild ideas even though it was an educational trip and not a typical spring break trip.
