Baby is the size of a(n): Poppy seed
Upcoming appts: Seeing Family doc today to get pregnancy confirmation and a referral for my OB. Also hoping to book a dating U/S.
How are you feeling?: Gross. This has been one of the harder starts to pregnancy for me- nausea, exhaustion, sore boobs, super hormonal, bloat. I usually don’t get hit with anything until 6+ weeks and I haven’t really ever dealt with nausea.
Rants/Raves: MIL took DD overnight on Friday so I could get some extra sleep!
Questions: Nope

Baby is the size of a(n): apple seed
Upcoming appts: 7 week US August 27, 1st prenatal August 30
How are you feeling?: overall pretty good, but it comes in waves. One minute I’m starving, the next minute I’m gagging. I’m exhausted all the time, taking 1 1/2-2 hour naps daily... ugh. But this is good need to me, so I’m trying not to complain!
Rants/Raves: headed to see the Backstreet Boys tonight... that will be fun! My first time since I was a kid going to a concert and not drinking... so that’s fun. Lol. But hey, baby’s first concert!
Questions: has anyone else thought about journaling through your pregnancy? I kind of want to...
GTKY: What are your hobbies/interests? Reading, taking bubble baths, and listening to music! Currently into binge watching Netflix and taking naps. 🤣😂
Team finding out/pink/blue/green: Finding out for sure.
Baby is the size of a(n): Peppercorn, lavender bud.
Upcoming appts: August 20th we'll be doing a 6 week ultrasound.
How are you feeling?: My symptoms seem to have gone away for the most part which makes me feel a bit anxious. I do have sore breasts and am still a little tired. Still having some cramping occasionally.
Rants/Raves: Really ready to be done with PIO shots! My muscles are so sore.
Questions: No questions yet.
GTKY: What are your hobbies/interests? I love to read, care for my house plants, and I like to play board game with friends. I also enjoy archery, hiking, and the arts. Basically down to try anything new hobby wise.
Team finding out/pink/blue/green: Id like to be surprised but I think DH wants to find out.
Baby is the size of a(n): black peppercorn
Upcoming appts: first prenatal visit Thursday.
How are you feeling?: Nervous. *TW* Ive had 3 early MC in the last year...one was just 4th of July weekend, so I honestly cant believe I am pregnant. I was about to throw in the towel. Gave away a bunch of baby stuff , cancelled the appt I made with a fertility dr and was ready to move on. So now I am a ball of confusion and emotions!
Rants/Raves: Nothing at the moment that I can think of?
GTKY: What are your hobbies/interests? I love being with family at the beach! Thats my favorite thing about summer. Also love working out, cooking, reading and going out with friends.
Team finding out/pink/blue/green: definitely want to find out
Baby is the size of a(n): an appleseed. Bump says my baby is as tall as the M on an M&M. That cracked me up.
Upcoming appts: Aug 30 for my 7 week appointment, but i badly want to move it up to see how things are.
How are you feeling?: not feeling much symptoms wise. I think my sleep cycles are a little messed up and i'm more tired during the day because of that. I get very full when i eat normal amounts of food, so i think i'm bloated. No MS yet. Overall, i feel pretty normal, no major complaints.
Rants/Raves: I'm mostly excited as this is my first pregnancy, but sometimes worry about the stats around early pregnancy loss. I also personally know several ladies who have miscarried and know how common it is, so have the worry at the back of my mind. I think it is because i had to go through fertility treatments to get here, and thought of re-doing the treatments worries me.
Questions: Have you ladies been sexually active and do you worry? Any thoughts or advice? I know it should be fine, but i do worry at times.
GTKY: What are your hobbies/interests? I'm currently binge watching The Crown and Madame Secretary on Netflix, love political dramas. I'm looking forward to watching Once upon a time in hollywood cos i'm a big Brad Pitt fan. I enjoy going on long walks. I'm waiting for my copy of expecting better.
Team finding out/pink/blue/green: Finding out!

Team finding out/pink/blue/green: I want to be team green (we were for baby #2 and it was amazing) but MH wants to find out. We have some time to agree with me.
