How many weeks are you? 10 weeks 5 days
Symptoms? The whole trifecta of heartburn, nausea/ms, and constipation. Yay!
Upcoming appts? Thursday is my first OB appointment and MaterniT21 test. We ordered some sex reveal scratch offs (in each option) to give to my ILs on Christmas because we always buy them lotto tickets. When they arrived H was like "We should scratch one off to see what we are having" I just looked at him for a minute to see if he was serious and then was like "They aren't magic, we still have to put the right one in their gift, the cards don't automatically know"
Rants/Raves? DS saw his first newborn since we broke the news to him about the twins at church. I was explaining that the baby used to be in her mommy's belly. He got really confused as to why there weren't two babies and we had to explain that not everyone has two babies in their belly.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? I love to read but haven't had as much time to do that. Mainly we watch Netflix. I love Supernatural, Doctor Who, and Sherlock. H and I love cooking shows and recently watched Chef's Table and found that really interesting.
Symptoms? I've been having aversions to breakfast meats for some reason. And I've been waking up around three am to pee the past few days - guess I should start getting used to that lol. Other than that not much to report symptom wise.
Upcoming appts? Nothing until after the holidays
Rants/Raves? I noticed a change in my belly! Definitely not "showing" for sure but I noticed that my lower abdomen just kinda boops out a little where it never did before. Cue getting ridiculously excited lol.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? Netflix, stretchy pants, and snacks FTW.
How many weeks are you? 11+6 Symptoms? tired, hungry, and having bouts of insomnia Upcoming appts? not until 1/5/16 Rants/Raves? meh. Things are pretty quiet right now. Just waiting for the holidays!! GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? I read. Like, a lot.

How many weeks are you? 7w 3d
Symptoms? the Diclegis is helping so far so nausea inst terrible unless I let myself get really hungry. Constipation and heartburn are there.
Upcoming appts? next ultrasound is on 12/23
Rants/Raves? We saw a HB of 117 at 6w 6d on Friday and I am trying not to freak out thinking that it is too low for that far along. RE isn't concerned and says that baby is measuring right on tract down to the day so that is a good sign.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? I love to read but haven't been able to lately. I also binge watch shows on Netflix. My moods come and go, sometimes all I want to do is read and then other times I just mindlessly watch Netflix.
Symptoms?: All day nausea, exhausted, boobs still hurt like hell and have been growing, peeing excessively at night, smells heightened... Basically all the normal stuff.
Upcoming appts?: Early Jan
Rants/Raves?: I'd like to chop my boobs off. Lol.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges?: I certainly love to Netflix binge. Other hobbies include spending time with my dogs and taking them to the dog park/lake, going to the beach though I haven't felt up to that lately, and I love to read.
Symptoms? I got sick once last week, but it could have been due in part to the cold sores. Cold sores are finally going away. Gas and exhaustion.
Upcoming appointments? I have Harmony testing next Monday. I am both excited and nervous.
Rants/Raves? I am hoping I have turned a corner on the cold sores. They just take so much out of me so I am just exhausted now...but after Thursday I am off until 2016!
GTKY: I love photography and have invested a lot of money in gear. I also love crafting...I am obsessed with my cricut!
Symptoms? Still nauseated and barfy in the mornings, heartburn, waking up with a bursting bladder at night, and I have to be selective with my pants.
Upcoming appts? TOMORROW HALLELUJAH
Rants/Raves? H outed me to a couple coworkers at my company party on Friday. Luckily, they were pretty much the best coworkers to spill the secret to, but still. I nearly became a widow.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? Reading blogs, posting on forums, dreaming up expensive house renovations, online window shopping, and thinking about retirement in 38+ years.

How many weeks are you? 7 w 3 d
Symptoms? My wish of wanting to feel pregnant has come true, and it sucks! I'm nauseous, pee a lot, and am exhausted. Fortunately, the nausea isn't terrible and is the worst at night so it's more manageable when H is home to help with DS, but it's not fun.
Upcoming appts? 1st one is Thursday! I doubt it will be too exciting, but I'm excited for someone to tell me I'm actually pregnant!
Rants/Raves? Excited for a week away next week. Heading to FL to visit my brother and his family. My parents will be there too, and they are so helpful w DS so I will get to relax. I feel a little guilty bc they do so much when we visit, but 1st tri is the perfect excuse to be taken care of :-)
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? I'm the queen of wasting time. Surfing the Internet and watching reality tv is the best. I love to read and workout too but don't consider those to be wasting time. Reading and exercise are good for your brain and body; watching Married at First Sight is not!
Rants/Raves? I feel like time is crawling. I hate the uncertainty and worry in 1st tri. And ever since DH said he wanted us to put our house on the market in spring, I feel like we have a million things to do but we said we wouldn't start until after Christmas. It feels so stressful to have that hanging over our heads.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? Gardening in the summer, crosswords, online jigsaws and puzzle-type games in the winter.
A little nausea, but its definitely getting better. Huuuuge boobs, but thankfully the soreness is getting a little better. Wayyy way bloated and still tired. Starting to see the light at the end of this first trimester tunnel!
Upcoming appts?
Nuchal translucency screening on January 4th! For any mommas that have done this before... I know its an ultrasound with a specific purpose, but will it still be like "OOOOO THERE'S BABY!" like my other u/s? Or will I not really see much since its so focused?
Rants/Raves?
DH and I head back north for Christmas next Wednesday the 23rd and I can't wait! We will be telling all of our families over the few days of Christmas so I just can't wait to get there!
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? Well.. I may be the last person on the planet that doedn't have Netflix... but I'm all about a good SVU or NCIS marathon on tv when I have time to kill!

How many weeks are you? 8w2d
Symptoms? Horrible morning sickness, fatigue.
Upcoming appts? Graduate from the RE on Wednesday, I hope.
Rants/Raves? Meh. Tired.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? Lately, Netflix is my hobby. I just finished Master of None. It was entertaining. Generally, I like being outdoors, but I'm sooooo tired lately.

ginabini, with DS we went to an MFM for the NT scan (that is just how my provider works). He looked at EVERYTHING. He figured that while he was there, he might as well make sure everything else looked good. And by that point the baby looks like a baby.

Dude.... I hear you on the cold sores. I have an intolerance to lemon, lime and pineapple, and the way my body reacts is to give me cold sores. There are so many things with those items that the citrus is used as a preservative, that it is hard to avoid 100% of the time. Not being pregnant, I was taking 1000mg of Lysine a day, and I could eat all of the lemon/lime/pineapple I wanted, without getting a cold sore. But you can't take Lysine while pregnant. My first pregnancy, my whole 2nd Tri was full of herpes-face, even though I was avoiding the triggers like the Black Plague. It was horrible and so embarrassing! I have yet to get one this pregnancy, but I haven't hit my 2nd Tri yet, so only time will tell.

How many weeks are you? 9w 0d
Symptoms? Nausea, constipation, night sweats like whoa, big boobs, major heartburn, fatigue
Upcoming appts? I had one this morning!!
Rants/Raves? We got to see baby!!! Measuring right on target, due date will be 7-18-2016. Heartbeat of 171. Got pictures and a little bit of a video of the heartbeat.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? Lately, napping and reading.
Symptoms? boobs seem better, but still some nausea and exhausted. Not helping that I have a cold and am having trouble sleeping from my cough
Upcoming appts? Next Monday with MFM
Rants/Raves? Ready to be off of work on vacation for the holiday, annoyed that I am sick
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? I love to read, so most free time is spent with books. Also like video games, but haven't had much time for that anymore with DS. I enjoy playing tennis, have a league starting in January that I hope I am feeling well enough to do

Ray my belly has popped too, although I was plus size before so unless you know me well you can't really tell. ginabini mine was done at the maternal fetal medicine office with a huge TV. They looked and measured everything first and then check out their spines. So yes it's focused but you still see the fun stuff.
Symptoms? Mild nausea (getting better), aversions to all the foods, fatigue (think this is also getting better), rlp.
Upcoming appts? We've decided to decline all genetic testing, so nothing til Jan.
Rants/Raves? I think my first tri symptoms are easing up. The nausea ended at 11 weeks with DD so I was hoping for the same, but found out over the weekend I still feel bad if I don't keep up the unisom & b6.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? I have a billion crafty hobbies and time for none of them right now. We dvr lots and catch up on shows after DD is in bed and I play candy crush when I just need to zone out.

How many weeks are you? 9 weeks, 2 days
Symptoms? EXHAUSTED to the max! I've been taking daily naps and get really tired after I do something. Very occasional dry heaving and kind of sore boobs, but really not much!
Upcoming appts? I have what will hopefully be my last RE appointment December 28 (I swear they haven't released me yet because they want to keep charging me money) and my first OBGYN appointment December 29.
Rants/Raves? I went to my DH holiday party Friday night and it was the second time I was sober during a social event. I drank shirley temples all night....turned out the place was a hookah lounge so I had to leave the party early b/c of the nasty smoke.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges? Netflix documentaries to the max! I love just chilling with my dogs and cats on the couch, watching TV. I also LOVE American Horror Story and still need to binge on season 4!
Not being able to fall back to sleep at night. Seriously, this is maybe the 10th time I've woke up at 3:00am thinking that K was in bed with us only to realize a) no she's not and b) for some reason I'm not tired and I toss and turn for 2 hours. Then, I get maybe an hour of sleep before K wakes up for the day. FML.
Upcoming appts?
12/24
Rants/Raves?
I told some of the guys I work with that I'm KU and they all said the same fucking lame joke. "What? You guys don't have TV in your house?" Haha, that's hilarious. Yes, we're reproducing at this frequency because we have nothing better to do. Wow.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to waste time? Hobbies? Netflix binges?
I love crocheting, which of course is my part time business, but I really like coming up with new ideas/making fun things for K. Other than that, MH and I really enjoy photography. housecarder, is apparently my netflix spirit animal because Supernatural, Doctor Who, and Sherlock are some of my all time favorite shows. I also love really shitty scifi movies. Aztec Rex? Oh yeah. Mega Shark vs Giant Squid? Bring that shit on. Crocosaraus? Now, I'm hot and bothered.

One of my serious ex boyfriend's and I used to do Legos. I spent so much money on the huge sets. I regret not keeping them after the breakup but they were all on display at his house and it would have been awkward to ask for them back and I just wanted a clean break. *fantasizes about my giant Death Star*
