This check-in is for those whose weeks change over today! Meaning your EDD is on October 2, 9, 16, 23 or 30.
*If your week does not change over today, please do not post. There will be check-ins every day so everyone has a weekly check-in*
1) How many weeks are you? 2) How are you feeling? 3) Any appointments or tests this week? 4) Rants/Raves/Questions? 5) GTKY: What is your favourite book?
2) How are you feeling? A bit better. I'm throwing up every second day now instead of 3-4x per day. The Vitamin B6 has taken the edge off a bit. It's still not perfect but it's helped a lot.
3) Any appointments or tests this week? Nope. Not until March 9. 4) Rants/Raves/Questions? I'm trying hard not to complain about how I'm feeling because I know it's weighing down my DH listening to me be sick and tired all the time. But I'm exhausted!!! I just want a day to do whatever I want (lay in bed). I'm going to ask my MIL to come watch DS one day next week and then go hide out at my parents house I think.
5) GTKY: What is your favourite book? Before I Go To Sleep. It's being made into a movie this year which is pretty cool. I wish I liked scary movies. I don't know if I'll be able to actually see it haha
1) How many weeks are you? 7w 2) How are you feeling? Ugh - the bloat is terrible and nausea is finally in full swing. I didn't get sick this early with my son... so not cool 3) Any appointments or tests this week? not until March 22nd 4) Rants/Raves/Questions? None besides the obvious! 5) GTKY: What is your favourite book? The Kingkiller Chronicles or Wheel of Time series
1) How many weeks are you? 9 weeks today! Hooray! EDD Oct 2nd 2) How are you feeling? Always hungry! It keeps me up all night. Always needing to pee. Always thirsty and nausea, yep still getting it. 3) Any appointments or tests this week? Yes, will be visiting our doctor on the 2nd. 4) Rants/Raves/Questions? I hate getting stomach cramps because I always feel hungry, I feel full right after a few bites then I'm hungry again! I can't go to sleep and when I do I need to pee so bad I can't hold it! Just a few more weeks and hopefully will be leaving all this behind me when we get to 2nd trimester. 5) GTKY: What is your favourite book? Anything Cecelia Ahern or Danielle Steele I would read
1) How many weeks are you? 9 weeks 2) How are you feeling? Mostly the same. Nausea, food aversions, and exhaustion. I've also noticed some RLP over the last week, and I've been having to get up in the middle of the night to pee, which is also new. 3) Any appointments or tests this week? Yes! I finally have my first appointment on Thursday afternoon. I'm so excited, but also starting to feel a bit nervous. 4) Rants/Raves/Questions? I ended up telling my boss about the pregnancy last week, because we were scheduling court dates for later in the year and I needed to work around my maternity leave. It actually felt really nice to get it out in the open, but I'm also not thrilled that I had to tell him before my appointment. Hopefully everything will go smoothly and it will be a non-issue.
5) GTKY: What is your favourite book? I feel like I haven't read a book in forever. The last one I can think of that I really loved was The Art of Fielding.

October 2017 May siggy challenge - Parenting fails
1) How many weeks are you? 7 weeks 2) How are you feeling? Decent, the bloat this time around is crazy. Exhausted especially in the afternoon. 3) Any appointments or tests this week? Next week! 3/8 4) Rants/Raves/Questions? 5) GTKY: What is your favourite book? Haven't had the chance to read any books lately but one of my favs is The Great Gatsby.
2) How are you feeling? Still nauseous, but I'm okay during the day, as long as I don't have an empty stomach. In the evening though - bleurgh...
3) Any appointments or tests this week? Nothing this week, which is really unusual. (Between getting my BFP to the middle of April, there will only be three weeks without an appointment!)
4) Rants/Raves/Questions? We went for a look around Babies R Us yesterday. My husband is getting really into looking at all the fancy gadgets
5) GTKY: What is your favourite book? Ooh, difficult! Maybe The Time Traveler's Wife (just the book though - I love it so much, I refused to watch the film).
1) How many weeks are you? I am 5 weeks today 2) How are you feeling? I am good. Just tired and I am having a hard time staying asleep 3) Any appointments or tests this week? Nope 4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Not right now, which is weird 5) GTKY: What is your favourite book? To Kill a Mockingbird
) How many weeks are you? 5 weeks 2) How are you feeling? extremelytired! I'm not much help with household duties at the end of the day. Keeping up with a 16 month old while pregnant is hard! 3) Any appointments or tests this week? nope, I go next Monday to see the MA and get blood work done. Don't see the OB til the 14th 4) Rants/Raves/Questions? none I can think of. 5) GTKY: What is your favourite book? I haven't read a book in 16 months besides children's books so I have no clue. Pout Pout Fish? Lol.
2) How are you feeling? Still having morning sickness/nausea all the time. It's hard to eat, and when I do it's pretty much apples, peanut butter and yogurt. I've been feeling exhausted all the time. I just want to sleep...
3) Any appointments or tests this week? No, finally saw my doc last week on Tuesday (missed the check in, whoops!) Didn't get to do a heart beat check, or anything fun.... just pee in a cup, blood draw, heath check, weight, etc. But we did schedule my first ultrasound for the 14th! So just a couple weeks until we can finally see/hear something. Whoohoo! 4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Found out daycare is going to cost us $1600 total for both kids.... after having to find a new daycare this last fall, they are now raising the rates in April, so we'll be paying a lot more than we planned. There is a significant shortage of daycares in our area, so we're kinda freaking out how we'll pay for this on top of rent, student loans, car payment, etc. etc. I really wanted a second baby, but the daycare issue is stressing me out big time.
5) GTKY: What is your favorite book? Harry Potter 5, 6, 7 (don't make me choose just one).
1) How many weeks are you? 5 weeks 2) How are you feeling? Anxious but okay. Sore nipples. Skin is breaking out. Nausea started at 7 weeks last time so I'm on the lookout. 3) Any appointments or tests this week? No and I really need to call my OB but work has been crazy.
4) Rants/Raves/Questions? My boss is changing departments and it was announced today. I cried even though I knew it was coming. She's a great advocate for parents in our department. I just feel scared because that's what I'm good at.
5) GTKY: What is your favourite book? Harry Potter & Outlander series. Just about anything Jodi Picoult writes. I have trouble picking one favorite anything.
1) How many weeks are you? 6 2) How are you feeling? Starting to feel more pregnancy symptoms, still tired, not much appetite, sore boobs, and now I'm having some nausea and increased urination and thirst as well 3) Any appointments or tests this week? Nothing this week. I don't think. My brain is basically mush. 4) Rants/Raves/Questions? Trigger warning: I'm a PgALer and I've been having nightly dreams/nightmares about m/c. It's making it very difficult to get invested in this pregnancy, it doesn't feel as real and it also seems very fragile. Otherwise nothing really going on. 5) GTKY: What is your favourite book? I don't think I have a favourite book. I love to read but I don't have a fave.
