How are you feeling?
The usual - a little tired, random aches and twinges, but generally feeling good.
Raves/Rants:
I haven’t gained any weight yet, but everything is definitely shifting. I officially can’t wear some of the normal clothes that fit just last week! Going to try to get by with dresses and cardigans for a few more weeks until my maternity clothes start to fit better.

No
GTKY: what’s your dream vacation?
Italy. I’ve already been twice, most recently this past December, but I just can’t get enough of it!
Baby is the size of a(n): length of a debit card
Upcoming appointments: April 6 for obgyn
How are you feeling? Still nauseous
Raves/Rants: I miss my normal sense of smell. It was already very keen to begin with, but it was nothing compare to the last few weeks.
Questions: Not really
GTKY: what’s your dream vacation? I don't know to be honest. But I like travelling and experiencing new places a lot. There are so many places I want to see one day. My friend's sister is currently going around the world for a whole year with her 4 year old daughter and husband. I envy their guts, as they get to see the world, but I'm too much of a homebody to ever sell my house to do as they did. But I still plan on visiting a couple of places slowly over the years.
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Blue 💙
Baby is the size of a(n): Navel Orange
Upcoming appointments: Next week, monthly OB
How are you feeling? Morning sickness is improving. Still have bouts of nausea and gagging. Aches and twinges otherwise, especially when I move around more.
Raves/Rants: NATM.
Questions: Nah.
GTKY: what’s your dream vacation Idk. I don’t like flying. Maybe Hawaii.
@dogmom5 We saw the northern lights in Iceland! It's great to go in March because it's not super cold, but you can still find the lights
@cammie0526 the struggle of clothes makes me cry on occasion! I've been wearing the same few things just every week
@froggerblue wow, traveling the world with a 4-year old sounds so intense. Definitely takes some commitment and guts!
@babysavvy I've never been on one, but my dad hates flying, loves travleing and he really enjoyed a cruise he went on.
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Green
Baby is the size of a(n): Orange
Upcoming appointments: Doctors appointment Wednesday
How are you feeling? Less nauseous, still super tired. Headaches started this weekend.
Raves/Rants: I got nothing.
Questions: anyone feel any kicks yet?? Once and a while I think I feel a little pop but I tell myself it’s too early and it’s just phantom kicks. It is my third in a short time so maybe I am feeling baby?.
GTKY: what’s your dream vacation: Belize, New Zealand and driving across our beautiful country of Canada. We live in Alberta and it’s on our bucket list to take like a month in the summer and drive to the east coast. Take our time, fish, see all the things.

Baby is the size of a(n): no clue
Upcoming appointments: I had a midwife appt yesterday. Next one isn’t until April 17.
How are you feeling? I feel perfectly normal and it freaks me out.
Raves/Rants: I picked up my youngest from his childminder on Friday and she goes “oh you’re so big!” I was so offended. I’m still wearing my size 4 jeans, I don’t think I can be that big but ok.

Baby is the size of a(n): a fetus
Upcoming appointments: 4/21 for regular appt and anatomy scan! hello time is flying.
How are you feeling? well, i would say i was feeling great... until last night when i got an uncontrollable bloody nose for 3+ hours and wound up in the ER. (all urgent cares were closed, i'm on low dose aspirin, and on call ob said prob best) it was pretty busy, and i waited about 2 hours to be seen... by that point it had started 5 hours prior and had finally slowed. a super nice PA bumped me when i was like hey, can i just go home now? (it was 1230 am) they did a nasal spray, still saw some oozing and decided to cauterize my nose and sent me home at about 130am. i showered, b/c hospitals are gross, and finally got to bed at about 2am... all to be up at 7am to get the toddler out the door and off to work. i am so tired.
Raves/Rants: rant - see above, lol. rave - love that my OB is good with prebooking appts, she even jokes "get the good times!" lol so i am booked thru to july/31 weeks.
Questions: natm
GTKY: what’s your dream vacation - a month or more in India. it's been my #1 bucket list trip for many years. just totally explore and hopefully immerse myself in the culture. at this point it will probably have to be a retirement activity, and that's ok!
@dogmom5 sorry you got your kiddos sickness, i am so ready for this cold/flu season to be done
@ccammie0526 italy is super high on my list of places to revisit, thinking a big trip for MH 40th in 2025. he really wants to bike the dolomites
@froggerblue that's amazing, i've checked on a few IG accounts of ppl who have done that. i am so lucky my parents took me all over as a kid - but honestly i don't have super solid memories until i was like probably 9 years old? which is why when we did europe last summer we left our daughter at home. i love her, but mom & dad wanted an adult trip.
@babysavvy hawaii is amazing, we're east coasters so the flight is a doozy, but so worth it. re the aches/twinges, i can't remember if this is your first, but my OB did confirm it all feels a bit more intense and earlier the second+ time around
@mokamonster i'm so sorry clothes are so difficult for you! that's really frustrating, do you have any family who can ship you some items from the US?
@jennaverhaeghe this is my 2nd, my OB asked last week if i thought i felt anything and i said no, but in the last 48 hours i *think* i've started feeling that like internal rolling motion (i'm 15w tomorrow)
@wanderlustsoul i'm so impressed if you are still in your same jeans! i cannot remotely say the same! also hoping for no more sickness for you!!
Maybe shipping things from the US is really expensive, but I could look into it. Perhaps I can find some second hand things so I don't feel guilty for spending a lot of money on things that don't fit haha
business (insurance & financial services agency) and I had an employee quit two weeks ago and one who is on vacation… so sadly not a great week to wanna play hooky.
@mokamonster I'll have to remember your tip to go in March for the northern lights

Baby is the size of a(n): apple
Upcoming appointments: next OB visit is 4/3
How are you feeling? Just still freaking exhausted! I also keep thinking this awful acne is clearing up, but then I’ll have a new breakout a few days later. Really kind of hoping it clears up for good soon - it’s that really uncomfortable, hormonal cystic acne.
Raves/Rants: Im just ready for spring to come and stay! It keeps getting slightly warmer, then snows/freezing rains/ices at least once a week. I’m over it.
Questions:
GTKY: what’s your dream vacation
I really have no idea! We always visited family for vacations growing up, and we had kids right away so also didn’t have the money to travel before them, so I’ll admit I haven’t been that many places (though my ILs took us with them to St Croix when we were dating, and that was super beautiful). I don’t even know where to start with where I would want to travel! Im also such a homebody and like to chill and have a lot of downtime, so I’m probably not the best traveler, anyway.
@woodland26 that's so sweet about your daughter!
@runningyogimama i got a facial two weeks ago and she recommended this: Hylunia Colloidal Silver Mist With Lavender Floral Water it's been helping a lot! along with doing a couple of masks everything has cleared up for now! mine was all jawline/lower face aka hormonal.
@andrawrmeda2 we honeymooned in greece, 10/10
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: It's a boy
Baby is the size of a(n): Navel Orange
Upcoming appointments: April 6th
How are you feeling?: It changes day to day unfortunately, still battling nausea
Raves/Rants: I'm craving so many things at once but still have a hard time eating any of it! Also people keep bringing in sweets to the office and even the sight of them makes me sick.
Questions: What are people's thoughts on birthing classes? Necessary? Recommended? Some people have said not to take them because all they do is scare you.
GTKY: what’s your dream vacation
Japan - my husband was born there and I want to see where he grew up. He has been missing it a lot recently too.
