    1. 12 weeks! (Plum, apparently)
    2. Still a lot of intermittent nausea and occasional vomiting (yay, for promethazine). A few weird dreams, but pretty normal other than that.
    3. Nope.
    4. Not really.
    5. Looking forward to a cross-country flight in a few weeks to visit my grandma/extended family. I'm planning to tell them our news in person!

    Hey guys. I was on the Sunday ticker change, but last week my doctor moved my due date up by one day...so here I am!

    1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
    Im 8 weeks. This feels like a great milestone!  Babies are the size of a pigmy seahorse, or a wild strawberry :)

    2. How are you feeling?
    So exhausted and sooooo nauseous. I've definitely started having weird dreams too!

    3. Any appointments this week/last?
    I had my first US last week, and we discovered we're having twins. This Wednesday, I have another Appt to find out what kind of twins. Can't wait for that one. My nerves are killing me!

    4. Rants, raves, questions?
    I'm so happy it's Saturday!  I really need to get some gardening done in my yard - there are weeds everywhere. I'd like to plant some more flowers, etc to jazz it up a little. 

    5. GTKY: Do you have any summer plans that you're looking forward to?
    Well, I had a TON of them, but this twin thing kind of messed those up (in the best way).  I do plan on going to a lot of music festivals in my area. We've got 4 this summer that I'm planning to do. Hopefully my body will let me :)
    We we're planning on a Hawaii trip in August, but I don't know if I can travel after the second tri. I have to ask my doctor.  But definitely some Lake Tahoe trips in my future. Maybe a little Big Sur in there for fun. I love summer!

    Good morning! @rebeckyjoy, we're on the same day of pregnancy! I'm also 12 weeks today.

    1. 12 weeks, plum/large lime
    2. Still much more fatigued than I hoped to at this point, and still dealing with crying spells  :/  Not nauseous anymore but still pretty particular about what I feel like eating.  Hoping for more energy in the next week or so!
    3. On Monday we have our appt with the genetic counselor, along with an ultrasound and blood draw. Exciting day!
    4. I'm starting to feel kind of pregnant, instead of just feeling crummy! I can see my lower abdomen starting to protrude the tiniest bit and we're starting to tell people, so it's nice moving into a more fun phase of all of this :)  
    5. Yes! Rafting and biking trip outside of Vegas, anniversary trip to San Diego, long weekend in the Tetons in WY, and a babymoon in Hawaii in October

    My due date got pushed back last Wednesday; I was too busy last weekend to join you ladies here last week!

    1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
    8 weeks, raspberry/peanut m&m

    2. How are you feeling?
    Just tired. I've had a very easy time of it thus far, but my doctor says morning sickness peak time is 8-10 weeks, so I'm not out of the woods yet...

    3. Any appointments this week/last?
    Nothing until June 9th.

    4. Rants, raves, questions?
    Not today!

    5. GTKY: Do you have any summer plans that you're looking forward to?
    We're going to San Francisco to see Hamilton in July and I am stoked!

    @rebeckyjoy It will be so much fun to tell your family! We're telling DH's immediate family in two weeks and I'm excited.
    @breezybee I've been having weird dreams too. Annd I desperately need to weed my yard. FX for good news at your appointment coming up!
    @shellac835 Your summer plans sound amazing!

    1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
    11 weeks, brussels sprout

    2. How are you feeling?
    I've been getting my energy and appetite back, which is nice! 

    3. Any appointments this week/last?
    NT scan on Friday

    4. Rants, raves, questions?
    Annoyed that I have to do some work today, and it's my fault because I've been soo lazy the past few weeks! (And I'm still procrastinating on the bump :P)

    5. GTKY: Do you have any summer plans that you're looking forward to?
    We are planning a trip to Hawaii (Maui) in August too, @breezybee @shellac835! Thank goodness for zika free Hawaii. Which islands are you ladies visiting? I've been having second thoughts because it will be such a long flight from NY and I don't know how I'm going to feel at that point. I'll have to ask my doctor what she thinks (I hope she thinks it's totally fine ha)

    Thanks for getting good us started @blueskies17

    Welcome @breezybee and @MJDsquared we are a really small, but lovely group here on Saturdays!

    1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
    10 weeks - double digits!! Babe is the size of a strawberry/kumquat

    2. How are you feeling?
    I feel great! No public vomiting episodes this week. Tender boobs - but that's it really.

    3. Any appointments this week/last?
    Yes. I had a dating US on Thursday morning where everything looked great, good heartbeat. It was a coincidence that last month I booked am US at a private place - $20 for pics, listen to the heartbeat, view on a big screen TV - and it happened to fall on Thursday evening. It turned out so great because DH wasn't allowed in for the morning appointment, and I also got to bring my parents for their first peek at their first grand baby. Babe was wiggling away, waving and looking great!

    4. Rants, raves, questions?
    I'm getting really excited to stop hiding/lying/sneaking around my friends and family (only my parents and my grandma know - we told them on Mother's Day)! Just 2 more weeks!!!

    5. GTKY: Do you have any summer plans that you're looking forward to?
    Looking forwards to doing a lot of camping. We are planning a camping trip to the town I grew up, which is about 13 hours north from where I live now in Winnipeg, and is now abandoned. The area full of wildlife, especially bears (black, brown, grizzly and even the occasional polar bear) and you can kayak with beluga whales. I can't wait to take DH to see the area, as he has never been there! 

    Thinking of my fellow Saturday PGAL ladies today - hoping to see your weekly updates! Fingers crossed we all made it another week!

    1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
    10 weeks with twins the size of strawberries. 

    2. How are you feeling?
    Tired all the time and nauseated. 

    3. Any appointments this week/last?
    My next appointment is Tuesday and it will have been 3 weeks since the last appointment. Three very long weeks! I can't wait to see them  <3! 

    4. Rants, raves, questions?
    Totally just had a little panic attack about having twins on another thread so I won't post it here too. 

    5. GTKY: Do you have any summer plans that you're looking forward to?
    I'm turning 40 this year and a few of my friends have or will as well. I'm hoping once I get out of this morning sickness phase that I can plan a girls trip to the lake or something to celebrate turning 40.

    Happy Saturday everyone!

    1) I'm 11 weeks pregnant today, the size of a fig. 

    2) I'm feeling very tired still, and somewhat nauseous, though not as bad as a few weeks ago. Fingers crossed that continues to improve...

    3) Ultrasound and genetic counseling coming up a week from this Tuesday. 

    4) the first US showed just one, but I still just have a feeling it's twins and one was hidden behind the other. I suppose we'll know more next week!

    5) summer plans- chilling at the pool as much as possible, rocking out the bump in a bikini. 

    Lovely wife and I will be planning a baby moon sometime soon for later in the summer, I think, but I'm not sure where yet. Maybe to the beach at Rehoboth or somewhere else not too far.

    I know I'm a day late, but I didn't have a chance to post yesterday.

    1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
    9 weeks, two little cherries / green olives

    2. How are you feeling?
    I'm feeling pretty good! Haven't been as crazy hungry the last couple of days, which is nice.

    3. Any appointments this week/last?
    I have an appointment tomorrow. My doc is going to do a quick ultrasound to check the heartbeats and we're going to discuss the optional testing for Down Syndrome. DH and I have decided we are not going to do the testing.

    4. Rants, raves, questions?
    I took a trip into NYC yesterday to tell my sister in person that I'm pregnant with twins. She was over the moon! It was a perfect day. 

    5. GTKY: Do you have any summer plans that you're looking forward to?
    My parents, my sister and her fiance, and DH and I are going on a 5 day cruise to Bermuda in early June. I can't wait! My stepdaughter is also visiting us from UT in July and August, so we're very excited to see her.

    1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 10 weeks!  A lego man! 

    2. How are you feeling? Ok.  Have been a little tired this week and morning sickness has been rearing its ugly head, but nothing that is really worth complaining about. 

    3. Any appointments this week/last? Nope.  Not until after Memorial Day.  

    4. Rants, raves, questions? I'm playing a card game with my husband and he's winning. Can that be my rant? 

    5. GTKY: Do you have any summer plans that you're looking forward to? A good friend is getting married on Memorial Day weekend, which means I'll get to see all my besties from college (we're still super close).  So I'm really excited for that.  Unfortunately, it's REALLY early in the summer season.

    Thanks @jackiesmom324! I'm glad the Diclegis is working for you. I had IVF too. How come you don't want to see a doctor where you are now? I haven't had an appointment in 3 weeks and it's killing me! I can't wait until Tuesday! I'm so happy I'll have more monitoring with twins. Good luck with your move!

    blueskies17 that's awesome you're going to Hawaii too! I'm going later than ideal (I'll be 33 weeks!) but it's what worked with our work schedules. Darn Zika, ruining any Caribbean options  ;)  Haven't decided what islands yet...I want something super chill and relaxing, and am thinking either Kauai or the Big Island. I've never been before, have you? Any tips? From what I've read August seems like a great time to go with a Dec. due date so I hope it works out for you! That is a long flight from NY...I'm in Utah so it's not quite as bad.  Good luck!  :)

    1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?  9 Weeks, a cherry? 

    2. How are you feeling? Ok-ish, tired and still nauseous. I have waves of energy. 

    3. Any appointments this week/last? Not this week.

    4. Rants, raves, questions? I'm bummed that this time around I don't like water. Last pregnancy, and any other time, I would drink water pitchers and pitchers of water, now I'm kind of grossed out by it. 

    5. GTKY: Do you have any summer plans that you're looking forward to? We just got back from Disney less than a month ago, now we're pretty broke. Kinda joking, but that was our "summer" vacation. I am going to see Tool in a couple weeks and I am pretty excited about that.

    @breezybee DH's family lives near Oakland, but it's true we don't go to the city often when I visit. We're staying in the city overnight though, so I may have to ask for restaurant recommendations at some point!

    @shellac835 Thanks! It's a bummer that you have to wait till October but you'll have an amazing time and something to look forward to in the fall! I miss the Caribbean but it's nice to have an excuse to go to Hawaii- I love it there. I've only been to Oahu and Big Island. Big Island is great and can be very fun and relaxing. Oahu is great too but there's a lot to do so it would be hard to make it a relaxing trip lol. I've always wanted to go to Kauai as well but probably won't make it on this trip since I want to minimize the number of flights and stick to one island (Maui!)  I don't think you can go wrong with any of the Hawaiian islands. :)

    @MJDsquared Since you're coming in July - I would strongly recommend trying to get a reservation at Liholiho Yacht Club. Omg it's the most amazing restaurant I've been to this year. 
    I have tons more if you aren't into that one :)
