    1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 
    7 weeks; blueberry

    2. How are you feeling? 
    Pretty good! Just the usual: bloated, gassy, sore boobs, and tired. I've been having vivid dreams as well, which I actually enjoy.

    3. Any appointments this week? 
    I had my dating ultrasound this morning. I was so nervous that I cried. The tech was super sweet and read my file (***TW*** about my loss ***END TW). Baby is measuring one day ahead at 7w+1d, but I'll keep my due date as is. The HB was 143. I was so happy when she finally told me the measurements and HB rate that I cried again.

    4. Rants, raves, questions? 
    Nope! Just going to relax and enjoy the rest of my day off. I have a 4 day weekend! Woohoo!

    5. GTKY: For Americans, any July 4th plans? For non-Americans, any weekend plans?
    ETA I can't spell "any"
    I'm in Canada and we'll be celebrating Canada's 150th! We will probably watch fireworks. I want to work out, read, garden, and do yoga this weekend. We're also having lunch with DH's family tomorrow. I don't think we'll tell them just yet.

    1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 
    7 weeks blueberry

    2. How are you feeling? 
    Still not hungry

    3. Any appointments this week? 
    Nope not until July 10

    4. Rants, raves, questions? 
    Raves: the dogs have been at the kennel all week and they  are coming home today! EEK..MISSED THEM.
    raves: great week went to Coeur D'alene ID, for a night. Went to Portland for a day. 
    Rant: voodoo donuts overrated..but still fun day trip for donut. Won't go again to voodoo though.

    We just had our week vacation. For the 4th just chilling with the boys. MOE is afraid of fireworks- we scarred him for life when he was a puppy when we took him to Port Angeles, in a tent with fireworks= not a good idea.

    Mobile. 

    7weeks. Size of a playing die. 

    Exhausted. Nursing the 12 month old blows. 

    No appointments until July 20th. 

    Rant: SIL found out I'm pregnant during the camping trip with the inlaws when she saw my throwing up my entire burger. Instead of keeping her mouth shut like I asked, DH gets a call from his brother last night asking if we're expecting. F U, SIL!

    ETA: American. Fourth of July plans are our small town races a SN fireworks. And cook out with the in laws if I feel like going. 
  • 1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 7 weeks, baby is a blueberry

    2. How are you feeling? The terrible headache/nausea/exhaustion I had at the beginning of the week has subsided. I think it was too much salt on Saturday. Now I generally have little appetite but can at least eat. And I'm exhausted, but I also cut down to only 50mg of caffeine. Which does nothing. NOTHING.

    3. Any appointments this week? Nope

    4. Rants, raves, questions? H keeps making plans with friends for us, and it's always "Sure, let's get together for drinks on Saturday!" Well, that's all well and good for people who can drink, but I feel stupid sitting there with my chocolate milk while they get hammered. I told H I don't feel like being sober around drunk people and just want to go to bed. He told me I can't be a hermit for 8 months and it's not that bad to not drink. I told him he should stop drinking with me then. He called that idea dumb. Le sigh. My compromise: we play board games that I pick. They can get hammered while I crush them at Cranium.

    We're getting our TV fixed on Saturday! Our 65" blew out a couple weeks ago so we've been watching on the 40" from downstairs. It's not a TV. It's an abomination. Other than that the aforementioned "drinks" with friends, and unfortunately I'm working Monday. No plans for fireworks except to hold my trembling dog as they go off around the neighborhood.

    @eggplantface That sounds like me and my DH. Sounds like a great compromise! Also I found some awesome non-alcoholic radlers if you're interested in that. I also make my own with non-alc beer and some grapefruit juice. My own version has a lot less calories and sugar than the store bought radler.

    Nothing too crazy. We are just going to spend some family time together hanging out. We have a new popsicle store so we may check that out. You can hangout and listen to live music outside. It sounds like a fun evening! 




  • @ladybug0088 A popsicle store? I've never heard of such a thing but it sounds neat.

  • @eggplantface yes! Homemade Popsicles all gluten free if anyone has that issue. Strawberry lemonade popsicle is calling my name. They have gourmet chocolate dipped ones too. It's crazy! I think it's s new trend coming.

    1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 
    7 weeks - blueberry

    2. How are you feeling? 
    Awful - I have zero energy to do anything (can't even concentrate at work...)

    3. Any appointments this week? 
    I had my first prenatal appt with my midwife. Excited to be with her again as she delivered my son last year.

    4. Rants, raves, questions? 
    I just want to make it out of the first trimester already! Sick of the hangover without the drinking all day every day.
     
    5. GTKY: For Americans, any July 4th plans? For non-Americans, any weekend plans?
    I'm Canadian so celebrating Canada's 150th this weekend! Hoping to take our son to see some fireworks :)

    I'm probably going to cry at my dating ultrasound next week too @starla! Also, Happy Canada day!
  • Due 2/2, 2/9, 2/16, 2/23? You go here! 

    1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 
    8 weeks today- Rasberry or jelly bean
    2. How are you feeling? 
    Ok. My nausea and exhaustion were crazy for a while but they calmed down a bit this week. I started a new job recently so maybe it's a good thing I'm not vomiting or napping at my desk!
    3. Any appointments this week? 
    Had my first appt today! Uneventful, they typically don't do ultrasounds until wk 20- but the doc ordered one for me due to my history of miscarriage. That will be done next week 
    4. Rants, raves, questions? 
    I just want the second trimester to arrive! I worry so much it's hard to enjoy this time. Once I get a little further along I am sure I'll breathe easier. 
    5. GTKY: For Americans, any July 4th plans? For non-Americans, any weekend plans? 
    Rest relaxation and some fireworks!
  • Update to . How are you feeling? 
    Had to run from shower to toilet to throw up.
    Week 6 was the week of dry heaving.
    Week 7 week of full blown MS??!! NO!!
  • @chawk17 I'm in the "shitty my pants" fun stage. No vomiting though. Not sure which is worse.

    He of course said yes

    2. How are you feeling? 
    Tired, nauseated, but really not too bad yet! 
    3. Any appointments this week? 
    Had an appt last Monday and heard the heartbeat. I go again on Monday and should be released from the RE. Then I have my first OB appt with an ultrasound on Thursday. 
    4. Rants, raves, questions? 
    I need to get a better snacking regime. I am nauseated with an empty stomach.

    @phenomenalbabyd Oh no! I'm so sorry you have to deal with that. What kind is it and what's the prognosis? I hope it's the best case scenario. 

    P. S. You may want to put a TW (trigger warning) on that part of your post.
