Generally good. Having more symptoms this go-around which is reassuring. Mostly sore breasts, some exhaustion, being emotional, and just a little food averion/queasiness.
3. Any appointments this week?
Nope. Just waiting (im)patiently until the 8 week ultrasound.
1. 7 weeks. Baby is the size of a wee raspberry. 2. Better than a week ago. Tired. Food aversions, some nausea. 3. First appointment is next week. 4. Had a pregnancy loss April 30th at 10 weeks. Following the mantra "you're pregnant until you're not" but I am very apprehensive. Trying to stay positive.
@Knottie68725846 Welcome! Check out the thread about how to change your knottie username. It helps us identify you better. Also, it’s a good idea to add a TW (Trigger Warning) before mentioning any losses.
TW* I also had a loss in February so I am in the same boat. Apprehensive, but hopeful! *End TW
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? - 8 weeks! Size of a grape!
2. How are you feeling? - Feeling great! Little to no symptoms aside from fatigue. Considering myself lucky, and trying not to stress.
3. Any appointments this week? - Had an ultrasound this past Friday. Nice strong heartbeat! Nothing set for this week yet, though my OB says our next step is genetic testing? Will touch base with them tomorrow to set up our next steps.
4. Rants, raves, questions? - Social media is my career, so I've been thinking of fun/clever ways to "announce" online once we hit 12 weeks. Does anybody have any fun posts planned?! Pregnancy and Gender Reveal posts are some of my all time favorites to see in my feed!
@indigoheightsblogYay for a good ultrasound! It's so comforting to see that everything is going well. For reveals, last time we took the ultrasound pic and added a Santa hat (for our December baby). I guess we could do a little shamrock for March but it's not as cute imo.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
7 weeks, a blueberry
2. How are you feeling?
I mean, it could be worse but I'm struggling. Everything tires me out and I'm generally feeling kind of crappy and rundown. It's all similar to my symptoms from DS but turned up a few notches.
3. Any appointments this week?
Not until next week
4. Rants, raves, questions?
I'm really grateful for how DH has been stepping up to help with some family stuff we are dealing with. He took off work on Friday and we were able to spend all day getting stuff done which was so helpful. DS has been great and flexible the last few days too. I feel pretty lucky right now.
@thedaint87 - agreed! definitely eases the mind. i agree the december reveal is so much cuter!!! i'll be keeping my eyes peeled for anything super clever. i was thinking of doing a photoshoot inside a target, filling our cart with baby essentials. (i'm target obsessed!) that would definitely go over well on my blog.... i just want to make sure the intention of the photo is clear enough when scrolling aimlessly through instagram/facebook. know what i mean?
Decent. Nauseous on and off. I still have a limited appetite but overall I’m feeling better than last time around.
3. Any appointments this week?
Nope. I have to wait another month to hear babies heart beat and meet with the Dr.
4. Rants, raves, questions? None currently. We told DD and my parents yesterday and plan to tell the ILs today sometime. I’m more interested in my MILs response since last week we found out my SIL is due with her first.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby? 8 weeks
2. How are you feeling? Today, I’m feeling okay, but overall I’m exhausted, nauseous, and I’m having a hard time sleeping.
3. Any appointments this week? Yes, finally! I have an US on Friday.
4. Rants, raves, questions? DH was on vacation all week and he goes back tomorrow. I don’t want today to end! It’s so nice having him around to help with DS when I’m feeling like crap.

1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
4; just found out! Looks like I’m bringing up the end of this BMB with a March 31 EDD.
2. How are you feeling?
So far fine, still early.
3. Any appointments this week?
Nope, going to call my OB tomorrow and get on the schedule.
4. Rants, raves, questions?
March always seems like such a long month to me after February, and I’m guessing being due at the end will make it about a million times longer.
1. How many weeks are you? What size is baby?
5 weeks - apple seed
2. How are you feeling?
Feeling good. Fatigue is my biggest complaint along with not being able to sleep.
3. Any appointments this week?
No.
4. Rants, raves, questions?
My 2 year old is taking a nap, so I thought I would too. Then it had to start storming as soon as I fell asleep. Whyyyyyyy?

Could be worse! (And if it’s like my other pregnancies, it will be
