1. How many weeks are you? How big is your baby?
15 weeks! Baby is as big as an orange or according to Ovia, an eclair.

2. How are you feeling?
Pretty good. The nausea has definitely died down, and I feel like I just might be getting some energy back. My food aversion are still super strong though - nothing sounds good, even when I'm starving.

3. Any appointments next week?
Nope! My appointments somehow got off by a week, so I go in 2 weeks for my 16 week appt and I'll be 17 weeks.

4. Rants, raves, questions?
I'm sooo happy to be past that first trimester hell. I thought it would never end.

5. GTKY: Describe your dream date, including what you would eat and drink.
My pregnant answer is a lot different than what I'd think of when I'm not pregnant lol. But for now, I'll go with a nice long couples massage at this cute little spa in town, followed up with dinner and a scary movie. Dinner would be a Mexican place (mmm tacos) and I really want to see the "IT" remake so we'd see that. The theater DH and I go to has the best nachos and they have the self serve pour over butter for your popcorn... so good.

1. How many weeks are you? How big is your baby? 14 +1 baby is the size of a peach.

2. How are you feeling?
I have a cold and my head feels like it might explode. I think the exhaustion is slowly fading away!
3. Any appointments next week?
I have an appointment tomorrow, which is good because I lost my med list of things I'm allowed to take and I want to know if I can have anything to relieve some of this sinus pressure!
4. Rants, raves, questions?
I have finally found honey crisp apples and I'm so excited!
5. GTKY: Describe your dream date, including what you would eat and drink.
I would just like it to be a surprise from my husband. He's not very good at surprises lol.

@katester91, I've been using a netipot for my sinuses and it's helped big time. Unfortunately most of the good decongestant meds are a no no.

Tylenol cold & sinus and saline nose sprays are fine, though.

katester91 · September 2017

Thanks! I think I'm going to try some tea with honey also. I know there's so much you can't take but I have no idea what was on my list that I'm allowed.

1. How many weeks are you? How big is your baby? 15 weeks and 1 day today! The bean is now orange sized!

2. How are you feeling? More of my usual reflux and tired. It's so part of my life now I get worried when I don't feel either lol

3. Any appointments next week? Cervical length check sometime this week. I had some LEEPs that took some of my cervix off so we gotta monitor that.

4. Rants, raves, questions?

5. GTKY: Describe your dream date, including what you would eat and drink. Right now it would be to go to Denver Broncos game in a city we've never experienced before. And try ALL the foods. I HATE the team, but it's the DH favorite. Would love to see him all giddy.

@ashleyf911 @katester91 The only thing that my doctor recommended was Guaifenesin to thin the mucus in the sinuses. I was told no decongestants at all during the first trimester. :'(

1. How many weeks are you? How big is your baby? 12 weeks, the size of a plum!

2. How are you feeling? Headaches daily, dizziness, and acid reflux. I also have an ear infection from all the sinus buildup I had.

3. Any appointments next week? Not until October, but I am having blood work done this week.

4. Rants, raves, questions? We were going to announce at the beginning of 12 weeks, but my mom (who has told like everyone anyway) told us to wait. So now...I'm waiting until the beginning of 13 weeks.

5. GTKY: Describe your dream date, including what you would eat and drink. I'm simple girl, so my dream date would be a walk in a park on a cool day with a warm drink - either hot coco or cider. For the meal I'd go for a mushroom pepperoni pizza at a well rated local pizzeria. Then to cuddle up with my S/O on the couch and watch a movie.

1. How many weeks are you? How big is your baby?
13 weeks. Lemon.

2. How are you feeling?
Better physically, pretty awful mentally.

3. Any appointments next week?
9/18 is my next one. Just a regular checkup.

4. Rants, raves, questions?
I'm feeling really grumpy lately, and just want to be left alone. I feel like I'm being an awful mom to my toddler. She wants to go out and do stuff and play, and I'm just not up to it.

5. GTKY: Describe your dream date, including what you would eat and drink.
We'd go to NYC, have dinner at Bare Burger (best veggie burgers ever), and then go to a concert of some kind.

Sorry I didn't check in this weekend. I was actually feeling decent and got a lot of stuff done!

1. How many weeks are you? How big is your baby?
12 weeks. Plum. (which makes no sense to me. Last week was a lime, but limes are bigger than plums in my mental map of the world.)

2. How are you feeling?
Still up and down. Nausea is less lately. Still fatigued, but not like the barely-alive-exhaustion of last week. Been having weird pains that I attribute to round ligament and other growth. No spotting, thank goodness.

3. Any appointments next week?
I have an appointment on Thursday and I'm trying to figure out if we should do the NT scan in addition to the harmony prenatal test. Will post more on the "payin for it" board.

4. Rants, raves, questions?
I'm an emotional roller coaster. Feeling fairly confident now that we've reached week 12, and I've started telling people. But if DH does any little thing to "hurt my feelings" I have to be careful to not fly off the handle.

5. GTKY: Describe your dream date, including what you would eat and drink.
What I miss most from my life before DH is camping. At this point a dream date would be a hike in the woods, a huge campfire with baked beans in my enamel pot and waking up and not worrying that it takes forever to get the fire hot enough to make tea/coffee because it's so beautiful and there's no rush to be somewhere. Also, bonus if it's warm enough to comfortably do the deed in the tent.

HappyMonkey817 · September 2017

Hooray for getting stuff done, @fatstagnation!

cford08 · September 2017

@HappyMonkey817 here's hoping the mental yuck gets better for you. It's a mess wanting to feel one way but your brain/emotions have other plans. Sending the good vibes your way
