GTKY: What's your favorite favorite vacation spot?
Re: Ticker Change Friday! 1/26
How are you feeling? I feel excellent until my sciatica decides to come back with a vengeance. I do not remember it being this bad in either of my other pregnancies! It's like my left leg just gets stuck and I can't use it without stabbing pain. It's...fun.
Any appts this week? Yes! I go on Wednesday (I think?)
Rants/raves/questions? I'm on board with some others in FFFC and SO is really annoying me. He's not even doing anything that's usually annoying but just his mere presence is driving me insane. But I also want to have sex all of the time. So basically, don't talk or breathe but have sex with me.
GTKY: What's your favorite favorite vacation spot? So far my favorite vacation spot has been Napa. I realize I only live 2 hours from there but it's still an amazing place to go. I was dating a guy last year who took me on a date to a vineyard then we went and spent the night at a hot springs resort and that was probably the best weekend getaway of my life. So romantic and calm.
August 18 Siggy Challenge: April Showers
How are you feeling? Totally fine, other than these jeans are pretty tight today. I think I need to try on some of my smaller sized maternity jeans this weekend and maybe think about transitioning.
Any appts this week? I need to go get my blood drawn, but I'm super afraid of blood draws so I'm waiting for my lab tech that I trust to get back from a trip.
Rants/raves/questions? I'm cool, can't think of anything....
GTKY: What's your favorite favorite vacation spot? We really love exploring new places, so probably would never go to the same place twice. But we've traveled all over Italy (amazing!), we did an Alaskan cruise that was fantastic, Puerto Rico, Costa Rica, most of Mexico, Dominican Republic, Hawaii and all over the US.

How are you feeling? OK for the most part. @calimom2524 I am having so much trouble with my sciatica too. I start off the day alright and by the end of the day I am in so much pain.
Any appts this week? Nope not until February 8th which seems so far away!
Rants/raves/questions? Not any that I can think of.
GTKY: What's your favorite favorite vacation spot? We went on a cruise a few years ago to the Bahamas and it was pretty awesome. I loved Big Sur California as well.

How are you feeling? Much better now that I stopped taking Tamiflu. I am officially 5 days out from being directly, heavily exposed to the flu and so far, so good. I think I might have avoided it. YAY!
Any appts this week? No, I think my next is the first week of February.
Rants/raves/questions? This is dumb but I was going to order a fetal doppler and my friend said she'd send me hers...that was an entire effing month ago and she still hasn't sent it. I'm about to just order one. I can't stand when people say they will do something and they don't. Rude.
GTKY: What's your favorite favorite vacation spot? By far, Punta Cana, Dominican Republic. Such a cool, relaxing, romantic and fun place to go. I ALMOST lost my finger ziplining though because of a slight language barrier (I still have a bad scar and no feeling in my finger haha. Still my favorite place, ever.

Benched due to deployment- Off the bench 8/8/17!
How many weeks are you/baby's size? 9 weeks today, cherry according to TB
How are you feeling? I’m still fighting a cold and I’m over it. I just want to feel better. Still tired, Nausea has decreased though. Cramping and subsided and thankfully the spotting from last week only lasted a couple of days.
Any appts this week? Nope! First OB appointment on 2/6
Rants/raves/questions?
Rants: see above about my cold. Also, my manager has been on my ass lately about everything and it’s annoying. I work my butt off, but she’s nitpicking every little thing and apparently I had a ‘bad attitude’ the other day. It’s called having a rough day and being pregnant and sick. Leave me alone.
Rave: I had a burrito for lunch and it was delicious.
GTKY: What's your favorite favorite vacation spot?
I’ve gone to Hayward WI every year with my extended family since I was little. It’s beautiful up there, so relaxing on he lake, surrounded by nature. I mainly love it because of the history and family ties/memories.
DS: 5.28.15
DS#2: EDD 8.31.18
How are you feeling?
Ugh. I keep hoping I'm nearing the end of all the first trimester fun, but no sign of it letting up yet. Still nauseous all day and exhausted. I did find some blood orange mints at Trader Joe's that help with the nausea (about half the time). But I ate the last one an hour ago, so we'll see how this weekend goes.
Any appts this week?
Yes! I meet with my midwife on Wednesday. And then I have an ultrasound on Friday.
Rants/raves/questions?
I told my boss yesterday! It went well, although I wasn't real worried about it. He was my boss last time I got pregnant and he's always super understanding. He said to not use any sick leave for appointments, and to "work from home" when I'm sick so I can save it all up to take the longest maternity leave that I can.
I was hoping to wait a little longer to talk about it at work, but I am looking awfully pregnant these days, so I wanted to get ahead of speculation and rumors.
GTKY: What's your favorite favorite vacation spot?
I really don't know. I went on a Mediterranean cruise in high school and would love to go back to any of those places.
12 weeks - donut hole
How are you feeling?
Like a Roller coaster- good days and bad days for nausea, food aversion, energy level, fatigue and emotions
Any appts this week?
Had my first on Wednesday and got my official due date of 8/10 so I go here now, if you will have me.
Rants/raves/questions?
Rant- yuk to all the yuk
Rave- heard the babies heartbeat what a relief and beautiful sound.
Questioning whether I can actually commit to being team green even though I'm pretty sure I'm having another girl.
GTKY: What's your favorite favorite vacation spot?
I like to visit new destinations when traveling so can't really say what my favorite is. I do know it would involve a beautiful body of water though.
11 weeks. A lime.
How are you feeling?
Depends on the day. Had a couple of days where I feel fine other days where from late afternoon on I have terrible nausea. Which I had none with my son.
Any appts this week?
Not until February 9
Rants/raves/questions?
Just work. I have a job that allows me to permanently work from home. A couple of weeks ago my boss informed my department we would have to come in for a week of training. At the end of that week they decided to inform us we would have to come in for an additional month. So that’s fun when you have virtually no work clothes that fit since I have not had to work in house since August.
GTKY: What's your favorite favorite vacation spot?
Westport Ontario Canada, Cancun Mexico and Grand Cayman.
