GTKY: What's one thing that has surprised you about pregnancy so far?
I feel like I look 7 months pregnant. I did start out at a higher weight then I did with DD but dang I know my stomach wasn't like this all the time.

Upcoming appointments this week?
12 week ultrasound is this Tuesday. Can't wait to see him/her and am praying that everything is progressing well and that baby is healthy!
Any new symptoms or changes?
Everything is starting to subside and I'm feeling like a human again.
Rants/Raves/Questions?
Thank goodness for at home dopplers! I've been able to find the heartbeat so it's given me such peace of mind!
GTKY: What's one thing that has surprised you about pregnancy so far?
How different each pregnancy is! My first was a breeze compared to this one so far. I had so much cramping and anxiety this time around.

How big is baby? a plum
Upcoming appointments this week? nope
Any new symptoms or changes? My insomnia is back which is unfair since I have to take unisome for morning sickness.
Rants/Raves/Questions? DH woke me up from a nap because he could not find his phone. Not cool with the insomnia struggle.
GTKY: What's one thing that has surprised you about pregnancy so far? Last time I had an anterior placenta and this time I feel so much more stretching and goings on in my belly. I can't wait to feel the baby move this way.
How big is baby? the size of a lime
Upcoming appointments this week? NT scan on Friday. It will also be my first ultrasound.
Any new symptoms or changes? I wake up with hunger pains every morning. I never ate breakfast before this pregnancy.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm finally getting out of my Whole30 diet! Today is the first day since Dec 31st that I'm having dairy. Thursday I'll have gluten! I can't wait for sugar.
GTKY: What's one thing that has surprised you about pregnancy so far? I don't know if I should be happy or freaking out but I had 0 nausea/morning sickness thus far.
How big is baby? The size of a lemon
Upcoming appointments this week? Nope, had my 12 week last Wednesday and everything was great! Baby moved around a bunch and at one point faced the camera and waved lol.
Any new symptoms or changes? Nauseousness back with a vengeance after subsiding for a few days.
Rants/Raves/Questions? I've come down with a cold on top of getting my all day long sickness back. I just want a day where I feel good. It's been so long!
GTKY: What's one thing that has surprised you about pregnancy so far? I didn't think it was possible to be miserable and happy and thankful all at the same time.
@Leni410 I can't get over how big my stomach is. I started this pregnancy off 4lbs lighter than my second and 2lbs lighter than my first and have since gained 2lbs (and ran 12 miles on Saturday so am in good shape), but I look SO pregnant by the end of the day. I have been so hungry this pregnancy. I am not telling work until after my NT scan next week, but it is starting to become somewhat of an issue getting dressed...
How far along are you? 11 weeks
How big is baby? Lime
Upcoming appointments this week? No. I STILL haven't seen or heard this baby. I swear I felt him/her last week though and am dying to feel it again (6th pregnancy, hopefully third take home baby and I am thin so I'm pretty sure it was maybe real?)
Any new symptoms or changes? Still so tired and nauseous at night. And hungry in the morning. And I could clean all morning (the house will never be clean enough). And I can still smell everything ever. And this pregnancy has made me grumpy and stupid!
Rants/Raves/Questions? Not looking forward to telling people at work next week. I just don't feel like talking about it. I am the only female on my team (and what feels like the only female analyst to have a third child at my company) and I just wish I could be more similar to the guys who all have 3 or 4 children, but are one step removed from the process so it is never a big deal or something people think about all the time.
GTKY: What's one thing that has surprised you about pregnancy so far? I didn't think I would ever feel ready to say that "this is my last pregnancy", but I feel pretty good saying that now. I hope I can start really enjoying it soon once the bump is cute, the baby is kicking and the nausea is gone.
DD#1: 5/29/12
DD#2: 1/14/15
Baby #3 on the way due 8/19/17
How big is baby? strawberry
Upcoming appointments this week? go next week
Any new symptoms or changes? just a growing bump it seems
Rants/Raves/Questions? anyone else think they felt the baby move? I laid down last night, rolled over and swear I felt the baby move. It felt just like when I felt my first move. I know its early, but i've read/heard that the feeling comes sooner for stm and beyond.
GTKY: What's one thing that has surprised you about pregnancy so far? Nothing really. It's been pretty much like my first.
