    1. 10 weeks, not sure how big
    2. Moody and my gums are sore.  A little bit of nausea but less this week. 
    3. Finally I can say yes, going in at 10 1/2 weeks. Not set to get an ultrasound  just hoping they can find a heartbeat on the doppler.
    4. Rave: Not pregnancy repeated but my side of the family showed up to support my kid's buddy walk. Rant: Mil couldn't be bothered to show up this morning because she had to go to a football game last night. 
    Questions: stm when did you feel movement?
    5. Running is better in the fall because it's cooler.

    @rklinge0 I'm so with you on fall running! But I haven't been able to even think of it with the nausea. Sigh.

    1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 
    10 weeks, strawberry

    2. How are you feeling? 
    Same as the last 5 weeks: Nausea in waves throughout the day. Tired. Moody.

    3. Any appointments coming up? 
    Just had an ultrasound yesterday, so I'm still high off that. NT scan in two weeks. 

    4. Rants, raves, questions
    I'm a FTM, and a PGAL (mc at 5 weeks), so everything is new to me. The 10w scan yesterday was soooooo cool. I couldn't believe how much it looked like a little person, wiggling around and waving at us. It's starting to feel really real. I think after the genetic screening in two weeks, I'll finally feel like this is happening!

    5. GTKY: What's your favorite thing about cooler fall weather (if you have it)?
    Definitely getting to wear sweaters and boots again!

    2. How are you feeling? 
    I've been getting some significant headaches nearly every day, plus I think I caught a cold and have been curled up in bed for 2 days
    3. Any appointments coming up? 
    Nope
    4. Rants, raves, questions
    Today has been a particularly rough day. I got back a grade on an exam that reflects how hard going back to school and being pregnant is. Based on this, we decided it's best to give up on the semester. It's been a hard day trying to reconcile that school is over for the foreseeable future and I need a job and a plan.

    Sweatshirts! I love being comfy

    11 weeks and as big a a lime
    2. How are you feeling? 
    Better each day. I actually got to do grocery shopping without getting sick this week, that was awesome!!
    3. Any appointments coming up? 
    A week from Monday I go for my 12 week.
    4. Rants, raves, questions
         I am really looking forward to almost being done with the first tri. It's hard for me to get excited when I feel so crummy and that makes me feel guilty.

    Wish I could say weather but living in TX means it's still hot. But the fall smells, it's so homey!!

    1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 
         12 weeks (got to jump ahead a week after yesterday's scan!) Baby is the size of a roborosvki hamster.
    2. How are you feeling? 
    Eh. A bit less sick. Still puking, but it's more like every other day rather than every day. I'm still tired, and still have to pee all the damn time. My gums have also been bothering me. 
    3. Any appointments coming up? 
       I have one next week!
    4. Rants, raves, questions
        My daughter was SO excited to see pictures of the baby. It was pretty cute. I can't wait to see how she fits into her role as a big sister. 
    5. GTKY: What's your favorite thing about cooler fall weather (if you have it)?
       I get to wear my uggs, and we get a break from having to run our a.c.

    1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 12 weeks, a lime!

    2. How are you feeling? I'm okay, but morning sickness still comes and goes.  I'm still exhausted.  I'm so ready to be done with this part of pregnancy.  My back has started hurting too.  Grrrr.

    3. Any appointments coming up? We have our NT Scan on Tuesday.  Looking forward to seeing the little one again.

    4. Rants, raves, questions Anyone know anything about the Dockatot?  It looks like a great idea, but why is it $160?  I don't get the expensive price.

    5. GTKY: What's your favorite thing about cooler fall weather (if you have it)?     I love the fall.  It's my favorite season.  I think it started with it being soccer season, which I played most of my life, so it reminds me of that.  My wedding anniversary is Oct. 12th.  I just love the weather and temps in the northeast.

    @sunshine27shy Ugh I am furious on your behalf. First, anyone without a uterus does not get to comment AT ALL. Second, pregnancy is different for everyone. Maybe it was easy for his wife but that doesn't mean it will be easy for you!
    @allowachick I am also in the everyday headache club. I have been taking tylenol just to get by the last two days and I feel guilty about it. Sorry about having to give up on the semester but I can totally understand. I can't imagine being in school rn and I know how sick you were!

    1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 14 weeks, a troll doll, lemon, light bulb

    2. How are you feeling? Daily headaches are really getting me down. I know what you mean @bchalm I am having a hard time being excited when I just feel crappy all the time. 

    3. Any appointments coming up? Thursday but it will just be the doppler and some boring stuff.

    @allowachick don't give up on school with one bad grade! It is really challenging but if it's what you want to do don't give up! This is my second pregnancy while going through for my second degree and it's doable!

    @allowachick i'm so sorry, what a hard decision to make.  I can't imagine going to school and feeling awful all the time but also understand that there's never truly a great time to go back to school as an adult.  I finished my masters 10 days before I gave birth and it wasn't pretty.

    1. How many weeks are you? How big is baby? 
    12 weeks (and 2 days since I'm late again!), chicken nugget.

    2. How are you feeling? 
    I've felt mostly human the past two days! Only felt like I was going to throw up when I was hungry and needed to eat. I'm hesitant to say maybe I'm past the worse part of morning sickness, but hoping so! Now if I could just sleep better...

    3. Any appointments coming up? 
    Not til the end of the month. Just had one last Monday.

    4. Rants, raves, questions
    I think I may have felt slight flutterings the other day. Not positive but it was definitely a weird sensation!

    5. GTKY: What's your favorite thing about cooler fall weather (if you have it)?
    The weather not being super hot! I'm still waiting for fall to arrive in Texas. Boo Texas heat.

    Thanks @Buttercup0525  & peppersmith12. I felt movement at 16 with my first so was wondering how much sooner to expect something. Or if it was even possible to feel it 1st trimester. 
    Sorry @allowachick that's a hard decision to make. No advice for you but try not to give up yet.

    @allowachick and @saralee797-2 it was so frustrating but my amazing husband stood up for me and told his dad if he wanted to get four bites into a meal and get sick for me he would gladly let him do it. he told him he needs to be more compassionate because he has seen my laying on the floor doing my best to feel better. #rockstarhusband

    @peppersmith22 I have to get A's in these classes to get into med school, and I got a C on this test. Plus the pregnancy isn't getting any easier schoolwise with all the headaches now, so I don't expect it to get more manageable. That's why I drew the line in the sand about dropping my classes.

    @bchalm in the Ovia app you can change the size under themes and colors - they have a couple different fun ones like Parisian bakery, weird but cute animals etc. I also found on pinterest a size guide which was also pretty fun! https://www.momtastic.com/pregnancy/619949-how-big-is-your-baby-this-week/#/slide/1

    @allowachick Aww that's tough. Luckily I only need to keep a 3.3 through midterms this week and I will be eligible for the dietetic internship pre-select process at my school. Much easier than med school I'm sure
