Questions: natm
GTKY: What’s the best vacation you’ve ever taken? (thanks for the question august board!) oh geez, this is really hard to answer. i'm extremely fortunate to have traveled a ton. as a child - the Orient Express out of Venice probably. just a truly magical experience. as an adult, oof this is tough. probably Yacht Week in the BVIs. nothing like living on 42ft catamaran with your friends cruising the islands for a week with like 10 other boats of young professionals.

My ILs took me along with them on their family vacation to St Croix when my husband and I were first dating back in college and basically still children. It was so peaceful and beautiful and calm!

My best vacation was to Maui. Ive been 3-4 times, the last was on our honeymoon
Upcoming appointments: Had our first appt yesterday with an NP to go over wellness and what to expect. Wasn’t supposed to have an US, but I was spotting over the weekend and got nervous so they gave me one. Got to see our little peanut and a heartbeat! Was insanely emotional. Next appt is in 4 weeks with my OB
How are you feeling?: Soooo tired, waves of nausea brought on by strong smells, sore breasts, have to pee every 5 mins, and I cry over everything lol
Raves/Rants: When will the crying stop??? I’ve never cried so much in my life over people I don’t know
Probably our honeymoon to Aruba this past September. Splurged on the Ritz and it was worth every penny!

Questions:
Nope
GTKY: What’s the best vacation you’ve ever taken?
DH and I went to Italy the week before Christmas. It’s the first longer trip we’ve taken together without the boys, and was his first time in Europe. It was just so nice to do whatever we wanted, whenever we wanted without any sort of schedule.
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: The embryo was tested and we know it's a girl!
Baby is the size of a(n): Poppy seed?
Upcoming appointments: None yet. Third blood test tomorrow and if that's good they'll schedule an ultrasound for around 6-7 weeks according to the nurse. I had my second blood test yesterday and it was 1295, up from 726 on 1/16. 78.4% increase according to the calculator. My nurse says that's a great increase. I guess so? I thought it was supposed to double in 48 hours.
How are you feeling? Still nervous and tired. It's hard to work!!! I just want to sit down and stare at my computer. But if I sit too long, I end up googling and that's not good for me either lol
Raves/Rants: I know that I've been sick a lot less since mask wearing became mandatory in my office (it still is) but ugh, it's so annoying sometime, especially since it fits just under my glasses and leaves a mark on my face if I keep it on tightly. We're also in the thick of cold/flu season with the kids so basically everyone is coughing in my face -- so I guess I shouldn't complain....
Questions: Do you ever stop feeling nervous?
GTKY: What’s the best vacation you’ve ever taken? Probably to London where we took a train out to see Hampton Court Palace! I'm a Tudor nerd and it was so amazing to actually be there. Tower of London was cool too but Hampton Court just felt really special.
I have not been to Italy since high school! I remember being really scared to cross the streets in Rome...is it still like that?
I'm prone to tension headaches in general. Now I can't take ibuprofen and I've been trying to avoid tylenol...this is awful!
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: most likely finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): apple seed I think?
Upcoming appointments: first Ob appointment on February 21st.
How are you feeling? Tired. So very tired. Boobs are sore today also.
Raves/Rants: why are mid work naps not a thing?!
Questions: See above lol But really I have none at the moment
GTKY: What’s the best vacation you’ve ever taken? Yellowstone is my all time favorite. I’ve been twice and I’m obsessed 😍
