  • How far along are you? 
    10 weeks tomorrow!!!

    How big is baby? 
    Strawberry

    Upcoming appointments this week? 
    Waiting on MFM to call me to schedule my NT Scan, otherwise not until March 10th

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? 
    I can't stay asleep. I usually am a deep sleeper, but lately I am waking up to any movement/noise or for no real apparent reason, oh and also because I have to pee. I miss sleeping all night. I don't like waking up over and over again. And this just adds to my exhaustion/fatigue all day.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  
    When do you plan on telling family/friends? I told my parents right away, DH is telling his this weekend, but we are thinking at around week 14 to spill the beans to the rest of friends/family and do a cute St. Patty's Day announcement, but I am also petrified to tell people. (after 3 losses, you get skeptical)

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go? 
    I bought tickets to Blink 182 concert here in town around week 20! Otherwise nothing really planned, considering visiting family in Pennsylvania in July at the end of the 2nd trimester, but still not sure about that. We live at the beach, so we'll just be spending more time at the beach and with each other before there's a permanent 3rd wheel lol.

    How far along are you?  11 weeks on Sunday

    How big is baby? The size of a donut hole

    Upcoming appointments this week? Two more week. It's an exercise in patients, because I would like to see my baby again right meow!

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? Everyone else is talking about their symptoms starting to die down a bit around weeks 10 and 11, and I guess I'm just absorbing everyone else's run-off symptoms, because most of mine got worse this week, especially the nausea and fatigue. I am a tired, vomitrocious mess over here. Also, everything just tastes off- everything tastes muted, if that makes sense. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? Is it my second trimmest yet? No? Wake me up when it is. I'll be napping until then.  

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go?
    We wanted to take a nice, long one to the Bahamas, but we're moving in May instead, so that will have to wait. Instead, we'll probably take a long weekend somewhere like San Fransisco or Palm Springs.  


  • @lahearn18 I also told my parents really quickly, and we told my in-laws on Valentine's Day. After losses and IF struggles, I've been scared to tell people too, so we've told the few friends that we would also talk to if we had a loss. Everyone else in our day-to-day lives and extended family we'll probably tell after our next appointment on 3/6, when I'll be 13 weeks. We don't plan to say anything on social media until late second tri. when we'll do one "We're having a boy/girl, due in September," post, and then we probably won't post anything else until the baby is born. 


  • How far along are you? 
    10 weeks today! Double digits ;-)

    How big is baby? 
    Strawberry 

    Upcoming appointments this week? 
    Not this week! Next one is 3/10, the NT scan. 

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? 
    Lots of aversions this week. I'm hungry and nothing sounds good. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  
    None today. 

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go? 
    No plans for a babymoon. We didn't do one last time either, and I kind of regret it! We could have really used that trip!

  • @amandarene112 yeah there are only a handful of friends that know, and they are close local friends that are more here for support especially since DH is off in california for training, and 1 or 2 of his squadronmates that he is close with that he's talks to when I'm being crazy hormonal etc lol. Neither of us are on Facebook anymore, so we aren't going to do a huge social media thing, but telling the rest of family is what i'm nervous about.
  • @lahearn18 All of our close family and friends know, but no social media post. I might do something when we find out the sex, which will be right at the end of first tri. I don't think you should feel any pressure to share your news with anyone until you're ready. I felt pressured to announce my first pregnancy in a cute way. Go with your gut, tell people on your timeline.
  • How far along are you? 12 weeks!

    How big is baby? limes

    Upcoming appointments this week? Thursday morning I'm going in just to listen to their HBs (my own reassurance).

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? Nothing new....reflux, some nausea, and daily headaches (I also have a cold too). I haven't craved a thing, and just eat whatever I'm able to stomach.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  I felt awesome yesterday and cleaned the house! That was a first in quite a while. I was so happy yesterday thinking I was over the hump and starting to feel good. Then I woke in the middle of the night feeling sick and today....not so great. 

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go?
    Definitely not a babymoon, but we're hoping to get some sort of small trip in in the Spring, since it'll be the last for a while.

    How big is baby?  Strawberry 

    Upcoming appointments this week?  Yes, woo!! Thursday I've got an appt with ultrasound and blood work. We saw baby at 6w5d after so.e light pink spotting and all was well but I'm so excited/nervous to make sure things are still all good in there!

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? I'm hungry all the time...i feel slightly unpleasant most of the time and eating makes me feel better until I eat too much then I feel awful and bloated. Sigh...but I'm trying to make healthy food choices and get a cardio workout in most days...Im not sleeping very well, sore boobs and nursing DD is uncomfortable, my eyes are getting really dry at night which happened to me during my 1st pregnancy too.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  Last night I broke down and cried and cried about a bunch of different stuff and felt fantastic afterwards! Poor DH! I think we're going to finally tell our parents next weekend! It'll be 11 weeks and I'm dying to share the news with someone other than DH finally!!

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go.  We're going to Hawaii in March with our DD and the grandparents. Very much looking forward forward to it! Maybe DH and I will take a long weekend by ourselves sometime in the 2nd trimester? We'll see...
  • How far along are you?

    Upcoming appointments this week? 
    Yes!! Physical with the midwife on the 23rd then next Wed (the 1st) is my NT scan!

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? 
    I think I can very slowly start feeling the queasiness subsiding, but again, it's very slow.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  
    Almost finished with the first tri!!!! Woooo Hooo!!

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go?
    No, unfortunately. No spare funds for that. I need to save for my maternity leave and my tax refund is going towards a new car for the family.

    Grape

    Upcoming appointments this week? 
    I need to schedule my next appointment. I just had one this past Thursday so it will be a little while.

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? 
    I have severe food aversions. I can barely even look at meat. Vegetables and fruits are a no go too. I  am basically living off of starches. Baked potatoes are what I am liking right now. I was craving orange juice but that kind of died down. My nipples are sensitive. Still BF too so that is fun. I am dizzy/feel faint often. I also feel like I need to go vomit and have diarrhea at the same time at random intervals throughout the day. I haven't been able to do either and sometimes I just wish I could so the sick feeling will go away. My newest symptom is slight discomfort in my left sacroiliac joint. I had tons of trouble with my pelvic girdle joints being too relaxed when I was pregnant with my daughter. I could barely walk by the time I gave birth to her. It also took my hips almost 6 months to recover after I gave birth. I really hope I'm not going to have a repeat of it. All these symptoms make me feel like this is going to be another girl. My pregnancies with my boys were magical unicorn pregnancies and my daughter nearly killed me. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  
    none right now

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go? 
    I have never done a babymoon. I had my youngest when I was 18 so I was still in highschool, lol. So no babymoon in highschool. I was in college when I had my second so I wasn't able to take off for a trip when I was finishing up my masters. Then, with my third, I wasn't about to leave my baby for a trip. I still have never been away from my her for more than 24 hours and that was when I was giving birth to L.

    I really want shamrock shakes all day everyday 

    Rants/Raves/Questions? 
    I realize my threshold of tolerating anyone is vastly decreasing. I literally lost my mind on a coworker for asking the same question three times wanting a different answer.

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go? 
    We just moved to florida so we might take a long weekend at the beach with our toddler. We didn't do anything last time since we got pregnant right after a cruise we took so we didn't justify another big trip within 9 months. 
  • @klcarr19 where in FL!? i used to live in palm beach county and now live on the panhandle.
  • @lahearn18 we just moved right outside Orlando! Love it here!

    @klcarr19 Yes welcome to Florida!! We vacation in Orlando a lot! Love it! 

    @lahearn18  the cat's outa the bag for us haha all of our family and close friends knew the night of our first beta. I was nervous, but I'm trying to have faith that this is our rainbow baby. Someone spilled the beans at work too. I'm on work restrictions so it's kind of obvious something is up. I'm always scheduled in one particular area instead of all over. We're announcing on social media next weekend :-)

    How far along are you? 
    11 weeks as of yesterday!

    How big is baby? 
    A lime according to the Bump. Although it also says 1.61 inches....must be a key lime?? Lol 

    Upcoming appointments this week? 
    None this week...I have a doppler appointment on the 28th and then I scheduled us an ultrasound at an outside facility on March 3rd. (March 22nd with my OB seemed too far away lol!) This place is so awesome. You can bring up to 8 people with you, they give you pictures, dvds, etc. And they offer prenatal massages with some ultrasound packages!


    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? 
    Not really. My OB gave me a script for Reglan today try on really bad nausea days. Couldn't really tell if it made a huge difference yesterday. I'm hoping it'll start to die down soon. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  
    Not really. We're taking our announcement photo today, so that's fun :-)

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go? 
    We might. I can't travel after 24 or 26 weeks  (can't remember what she said now). Maybe Savanah or Tampa.

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go? 
    not really a babymoon, but we will travel back to Canada to visit family at the 2nd tri/ 3rd tri changeover time. That will be a trans-Atlantic flight, but we put cancellation insurance on our tickets in case I'm not cleared to go. Then less than a week after we get home, we'll be doing a road trip with visiting family taking us 800-1000km away from home. Iced already warmed them we'll be going slow and steady and I might bail last minute if I need to.

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings?  Still pretty picky about what I eat, I don't want to eat anything most the time but I think my appetite is returning.  

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  I accidentally forgot to take diclegis last night and to my surprise, I've been feeling great today.  I think I might stop taking it going forward and see how I feel!  And all that seems to be left of the flu is just a lingering cough.  Yay.  

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go? 
    We'll probably just do a long weekend getaway at Cape May during the summer.

    I've been struggling with HG but I'm *hopefully* starting to turn a corner since I've made it 2 out of the last 3 days without vomiting. I have to take a lot of medications, but I feel WORLDS better than I did a few weeks ago. It was touch and go for a minute there! 
    Rants/Raves/Questions?  Nope

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go? 
    yes! We are seriously lucking out by getting to go to Tuscany for a week this summer! I'll be 30 weeks so might be a little uncomfortable, but my OB okayed it and we're definitely not missing out on this trip! So excited!

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? The nausea is getting better but these headaches are miserable. I'm still having a ton of food aversions and can't eat anything but junk. I had high hopes of eating healthy and working out and now I just laugh at how naive I was. Maybe I will be able to be more kind to my body in the second try.

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  None today.

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go? 
    We would love to go somewhere tropical but with Zika and a few other things going on that will be out of the picture. Next month is our anniversary so we are thinking about making a trip up to Hot Springs and relaxing.

    No, saving all of my time for maternity leave.  We have a family vacation scheduled for July and that's about it.

    Upcoming appointments this week? Nope

    Any new symptoms or changes or cravings? I've been able to drink coffee again after 6 weeks without. The major appetite loss/food aversions are starting to lessen some. 

    Rants/Raves/Questions?  This is our second and I'm already feeling like a loser for not being as thorough in documenting this pregnancy. Last time I did way too much, but this time anything I try to do doesn't seem to work. We videoed telling our family on facebook live (in a group with only other family who couldn't be there) and the quality is so bad :( Last time we have great videos of everyone's reactions. And I'm just feeling bummed.

    GTKY: Do you plan to go on a babymoon? If so, where do you want to go? 
    No babymoon. DH's is the best man in his friends wedding in May - so we are traveling to Texas for that. And he is running a marathon in June, so we'll spend a long weekend in Minnesota. No more money/days for travel outside of that.
