Baby is the size of a(n): cherry
Upcoming appointments: 12/9 US
How are you feeling? like garbage... but grateful for signs that all is okay
Raves/Rants: n/a
Questions: n/a
GTKY: What's your favorite season and why? I'm torn between Fall and Spring. I love all the things that go along with Fall (changing leaves, bonfires, all things pumpkin) but I also really love all the flowers and how beautiful Spring is.... plus I prefer summer over winter that follows those seasons... so I'm going with Spring lol
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: team green this time
Baby is the size of a(n): piece of popcorn
Upcoming appointments: tomorrow last RE, which threw me for a loop because it was supposed to be last week, but she wanted an additional US (whyyy do you play with my feelings?!) and OB physical this week as well with my favorite OB which I am thankful for
How are you feeling? Gross. Nauseous all the time, nothing sounds good and I’m back on the labetalol which means I’m also dizzy.
Raves/Rants: why the OR is being dumb today....I could have been done already with my surgeries for today but noooooo they schedule me late and don’t tell me. Ugh. At least I can catch up on paperwork, but last week they made a stink about front loading my cases. Oh well.
Questions: nada
GTKY: What's your favorite season and why?
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): Pecan/Cherry
Upcoming appointments: I have another ultrasound this Wednesday. Last one was 2 weeks ago, and hopefully everything continues to look good with this one.
How are you feeling? Also like garbage! Hooray for all of us feeling terrible.
Raves/Rants: I'm a little anxious about my next scan. There's no reason to think everything isn't progressing normally but PGAL brain and all.
Questions: None.
GTKY: What's your favorite season and why? Fall, even though that's not really a season we get here in Texas. It's just the season after summer that isn't unbearably hot.
I went and stayed/visited with some friends from DD's BMB this weekend a couple of years ago and it was GLORIOUS out! We were in short sleeves and were able to sit outside for brunch. They even had these fountains in the ground at the place we went and they were able to let their kiddos run around in diapers to play in the water. I'm in the south, but it's not THAT nice out here at this time of year!
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: pink
Baby is the size of a(n): jack (I switched to 80s nostalgia on my other app since I’m not a fruit fan)
Upcoming appointments: I just had one today where I got to see the little gummy bear squirming around! So cute- was the most emotional I’ve gotten at an US. Crazy how much they move around in there without us feeling a thing. Nextweek is just blood work.
How are you feeling? Oh man- the nausea has been so weird. Had been feeling so much better last week to the point where I could eat a pretty much normal Thanksgiving meal. But then on Sunday: Wham- worst day I've ever had- couldn't keep anything down the whole day. So now I'm just eating less in general in the morning since I'm afraid I'll throw up if have too much again, but then I feel so nauseous And weak.
Raves/Rants: See above for rant. Rave- just started reading Like A Mother by Angela Garbes on a friend's recommendation and enjoying it so far.
Questions: nope!
GTKY: What's your favorite season and why? Spring. We just moved back to the east coast from Cali and it's amazing to have seasons in general. But that moment when all the leaves pop out is just magical.

How are you feeling?
Exhausted. But thankfully only nauseous When hungry.
Raves/Rants:
Just wish I would be seen quicker than 10 weeks for my first US. I totally understand why we have to wait (wanted to make sure DH could be there). But that doesn’t make the waiting or worrying any easier

winter. I love the snow and I love this time of year

Baby is the size of a(n): blackberry!
Upcoming appointments: My original appointment got bumped by a week, but got to see little bean wiggling away today! Otherwise nothing big, I’ll schedule a check in with my OB next week
How are you feeling? Overall pretty good. Feeling similar to how I felt with my son, so that’s a good sign! I just wish I could handle coffee again
Raves/Rants: none this week really, just going through the motions
Questions: none
GTKY: What's your favorite season and why? Definitely fall. I grew up in eastern Canada, but didn’t appreciate the fall colours until I left.

Baby is the size of a(n): cherry
Upcoming appointments: Dec 26
How are you feeling?
I caught a stomach bug from my son and husband a few days ago but now I am just back to bloated, heartburn, fatigue and some on and off nausea. After a good ultrasound sound last week some anxiety has gotten better.
Raves/Rants:
Questions:
GTKY: What's your favorite season and why? I like summer/fall weather the best. I enjoy weather between mid 60's and about 80.

@coffeeandcookies84 I'm so sorry for your loss.
@coffeeandcookies84 I am so sorry for your loss ❤️
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: DH doesn't want to find out, so I guess we're not going to!
Baby is the size of a(n): tart kumquat?? Weird app choice
Upcoming appointments: 12/12, get to hear the heartbeat! And get blood work done I think.
How are you feeling? Symptoms have abated a little...no nausea except for when I go too long without eating. Mainly just feeling really tired all the time. And my boobs still hurt.
Raves/Rants: My main rant is that it is hard to be pregnant and not tell the whole world immediately!! I find myself telling a lot of little white lies, which is weird. On the other hand, I'm a FTM and it's so exciting to be pregnant. Hit 10 weeks today...Christmas will be the end of the first trimester, so that's cool timing...the best Christmas present ever!!
Questions: No questions really right now.
GTKY: What's your favorite season and why? My favorite season has changed over time, depending really on where I'm living. :O) I currently live in the Bay Area in California. I've only been here since January, so the jury's still out on what my favorite season will be...but I'm thinking summer/fall. Fall was always my favorite until I moved to New Hampshire a while back and then Fall meant six months of Winter was coming. But it's making a comeback being in a warmer climate!
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: finding out!
Baby is the size of a(n): strawberry
Upcoming appointments: bloodwork next week, ultrasound 12/13, 12 week with OB 12/19
How are you feeling? Terrrrrible! OB took me off work at 8 week appt. I’m a Lymphedema Physical Therapist and was unable to see my patients due to nausea and vomiting! Resting a ton has helped, mostly taking B6 & ginger drops for nausea.
Raves/Rants: Nausea 24/7. Barely functioning and DH is sick of doing the dishes!
Questions: does the 1st trimester California Screening Test include gender? I requested insurance authorization for nipt but haven’t heard back.
GTKY: What's your favorite season and why?
Sorry you're not feeling well! You're in good company, unfortunately for all of us!
Do us a favor, please take a minute to introduce yourself and check out the board organization threads if you haven't already. I haven't checked there yet today so you may have already. If that's the case, ignore this lol
@footdrbritt Are you in Savannah? I am from Warner Robins, GA (middle GA) even though I'm living on the West Coast right now. I loved the fall when I lived there too!!
@macb85 I lived in Houston for a couple of years. I have never lived in a more humid place, even compared to Georgia. But I live warm weather and actually got used to it after a while. I really enjoyed the winters in Texas. And in the summer I'd just spend the weekends at the pool.
@randomname_generator Sorry to have missed being your neighbor! Where on the East Coast did you end up? I like Cali so far, although it's so expensive out here. But the weather is great and there is so much to do outside. Any recommendations on things to check out?
overall we really enjoy the area, Savannah has so much cool history and FL isn’t far!
