Good Morning! I hope everyone had a good weekend.
How many weeks?
EDD?
Next appointment?
Symptoms/how are you feeling?
Rants/Raves?
GTKY: If you could go on a vacation tomorrow where would you go?..money is not an option and kids are with a magically nanny that you don't have to worry. Spouses...optional lol.
Next appointment? Feb 10th for our first ultrasound.
Symptoms/how are you feeling? I'm okay. I have some cramping, my thighs are sore, and my boobs are sore. I started spotting yesterday, so I freaked out and called the on-call nurse. She talked me back from the ledge and explained that the progesterone I'm on is probably irritating my cervix. Totally normal.
Rants/Raves? I'll just feel SO MUCH BETTER about everything once I have that first ultrasound.
GTKY: Seriously, I need someplace warm right about now. I'd love to go to Aruba, and we had plans to maybe go in April or May, but now I'm a little paranoid about the Zika virus. It's not there yet, but I don't know. Paranoia.

How many weeks? 7w3d
EDD? 9/9
Next appointment? 2/11 just to go over Medical/Family history with the OB Nurse
Symptoms/how are you feeling? Pretty good. Fatigue is still really the only consistent symptom for me. Starting to have more MS/nausea - had been starting up in the afternoons but the past couple mornings I haven't felt too great eating breakfast, but it's not too bad so far **knock on wood** so I'm not going to complain.
Rants/Raves? Anxious to tell people but I really want to wait until after our next ultrasound - 2/25 so a month from today. It's the standard 1st tri screening/NT scan so baby should actually look like a baby then.
GTKY: If you could go on a vacation tomorrow where would you go? Probably Ireland. I have never been and I'm half-Irish so I've always wanted to get over there. Might as well stop in Spain and Italy too while we're in Europe.
Next appointment? Still haven't called. Still waiting to hear back about short term dis
Symptoms/how are you feeling? Tired. I go to bed at 930. I also notice I've been getting a touch of nausea if I don't eat soon after I get up. That's fun
Rants/Raves? NBR: my DH's grandpa is about to pass. He left for MI to say his last goodbye on Sunday. He's expecting to be gone all week to help his mother with arrangements, etc. This leaves me with DS all week solo. I also need to fly solo with DS once Grandpa passes. Sigh. It's gonna be a tough week
GTKY: If you could go on a vacation tomorrow where would you go? That place with the huts in the water. What's that place called? Fiji?
Next appointment? MW on February 17 for blood work I think
Symptoms/how are you feeling? Nausea and tired
Rants/Raves? My H is gone for work until Wednesday, so it's just me and DS. He doesn't really listen to me at bedtime, so it will be interesting...
GTKY: If you could go on a vacation tomorrow where would you go? Australia, we were looking at it for my 40th bday in January, but it's not going to happen now. We're going to Mexico in March. The trip was booked in August and I refuse to fall for all the paranoia. It's a very personal decision , but we've been in that region a lot and I was never bitten. Don't get me wrong, I'll take all the precautions though!
How many weeks? 6w/5 d based on LMP. will see what my OB says.
EDD? 9/14
Next appointment? U/S this THURSDAY! is it Thursday yet?!
Symptoms/how are you feeling? tired, nauseous, bloated.
Rants/Raves? trying to convince myself that working out will give me more energy. walking with a friend over lunch today.
GTKY: If you could go on a vacation tomorrow where would you go?..money is not an option and kids are with a magically nanny that you don't have to worry. Spouses...optional lol. Back to Hawaii.
mrsjene I'm supposed to go to Aruba at the end of June but I'm probably not going because of the virus and being out of country that far along. Maybe it's silly but at this point I'd rather not take chances.
I don't think Aruba was on the list, and it's a decent distance further South than the rest of the Caribbean islands (except Bonaire and Curaco). Obviously better safe than sorry when it comes to baby, but I've been twice in September and have never seen a single mosquito. If you're not planning on going until June I wouldn't rule out the trip yet.
It's an amazing island. If you end up going and want any suggestions let me know!

I'm so sorry kerbear. That sounds like a really tough week.
How many weeks? 7 weeks
EDD: 9/12
Next appointment? Was supposed to be today but got cancelled because of snow so now I don't know.
Symptoms/how are you feeling? Nausea, exhaustion, bloating, general food aversion
Rants/Raves? I've been eating really big breakfasts lately because that's when I've been hungry. It's totally opposite of when I'm not pregnant.
GTKY: If you could go on a vacation tomorrow where would you go? Paris. But only if I'm not pregnant so I can have all the wine and unpasteurized cheese.
Symptoms/how are you feeling? Nausea is really kicking in. All I can stomach is breads, crackers and ginger ale. Sooo, I'm terribly unhealthy today because all I can keep down are starches and sugar. Ordered sea bands on amazon yesterday, hopefully relief is on the way!
Rants/Raves? Go away nausea.
GTKY: If you could go on a vacation tomorrow where would you go?..money is not an option and kids are with a magically nanny that you don't have to worry. Spouses...optional lol. I agree with Bora Bora, but also there's a fair amount of European cities on my bucket list.

How many weeks? 7w4d
EDD? 9/8/16
Next appointment? Friday! I don't know why I'm excited though... It's just going to be an office visit and maybe they will have me pee in a cup to prove I'm pregnant.
Symptoms/how are you feeling? Terrible.. All day nausea and heartburn is killing me. I don't remember it being this bad with my son. I started taking B6 Friday but it's not helping as much as I'd like.
Rants/Raves? Other than being nauseated constantly, no major complaints!
GTKY: I would love to go back to Europe. We went to London while I was pregnant with my son and had so much fun exploring.
Next appointment? On 2/1, I have do a pregnancy class thing at my doctor's office. I guess it is a group thing that they require before they will let you see a doctor. We have an appointment with a midwife on 2/9. I found out that she did her undergrad where I did mine and they have an awesome medical program so I am really happy about that.
Symptoms/how are you feeling? Nausea comes and goes. Very tired, which is not the norm for me. Boobs are killing me and peeing all the time. I also think my nipples are getting larger, which is freaking me out.
Rants/Raves? The RE told me to stop the progesterone and estrogen today, cold turkey. Right now, I am taking them twice a day and will still have some left, so I think I am going to use the rest once a day until they are gone. It will only be a few extra days.
GTKY: If you could go on a vacation tomorrow where would you go? Italy and Greece. I have always wanted to go there, but it was too expensive for a honeymoon. I would love to plan a baby-moon, but we want to save all of our PTO for when the baby is here.
Me: 28, all tests normal DH: 34, very low count, motility, morphology DX - MFI 11/14/09 - Married 01/01/14 - TTC #1 01/06/15 - Started working with RE 04/06/15 - Recommendation - straight to IVF w/ICSI 09/04/15 - Started working with new RE Nov/Dec 15 - IVF w/ ICSI #1 - 11R/8F - 1 transferred, 3 frozen
Symptoms/how are you feeling? Terrible nausea and all day vomiting.
Rants/Raves? It's really hard to fake feeling fine at work. I'm looking forward to when I can tell everyone and not have to worry about someone hearing me puke.
GTKY: If you could go on a vacation tomorrow where would you go?..money is not an option and kids are with a magically nanny that you don't have to worry. Spouses...optional. I would just go to a really nice hotel with a super comfy bed and sleep. I don't even care where the hotel is.
Sending good thoughts to you this week, kerbear. It sounds like it's going to be tough for everyone.
How many weeks? 5w 6d
EDD? 9/20 according to O day, but we'll see what the doctor says
Next appointment? 2/17
Symptoms/how are you feeling? Really tired but unable to get a good night's sleep - I have been waking up multiple times, which is very unusual for me, and it doesn't seem to be bathroom-related.
Rants/Raves? DH was OOT Friday-Sunday for an adventure race and now seems to expect my sympathy/care for his sore body. Meanwhile, I was solo with DD + dog while he was gone and had to shovel out the house and car after the snow. That's exhausting enough when I'm NOT PG. No sympathy here.
GTKY: If you could go on a vacation tomorrow where would you go?..money is not an option and kids are with a magically nanny that you don't have to worry. Spouses...optional lol. If I wasn't PG, I'd do a hiking/backpacking tour through the Swiss Alps. It's on DH and my bucket list but probably won't happen until we're empty nesters.

How many weeks? 7+4
EDD? 9/8
Next appointment? 2/12
Symptoms/how are you feeling? Pukey, tired, cranky. The usual.
Rants/Raves? I don't know. I feel all grumpy, like all I do is complain right now. I swear I do other things that are not complaining.
GTKY: If you could go on a vacation tomorrow where would you go?..money is not an option and kids are with a magically nanny that you don't have to worry. Spouses...optional lol. I'd take a month traveling around Europe, but I especially want to visit Germany. I grew up hearing about the time my parents spent there, and I'd like to see some of that for myself.
mrsjene, glad your nurse was able to calm you down! kerbear, sorry about your DH's grandfather. Hope this week goes smoothly for you!
How many weeks? 5w5d EDD? 9/21 Next appointment? 2/15
Symptoms? Most of the symptoms from last week are backing down, much less nausea. I'm going to assume the "symptoms" from week 4 and 5 were really just exaggerated PMS symptoms and now that's over and we can move on to real pregnancy symptoms.
R/Rs? I have to travel next week to Tampa for work. Normally I look forward to it, but since I don't know how I'll feel, I'm kind of dreading it. Oh well.
GTKY: One of those month long cruises around the Mediterranean.
Haven't called yet. I said I would at 5 wks this time because I had my cp right before that last month and it sucked to have to cancel my appointments.
Symptoms/how are you feeling? Just tired and peeing a lot so far. Nausea hit big time at 6 weeks with DD so I'm trying to enjoy feeling good.
Rants/Raves? I think I'm finally going to step away from the tests. Last month tests never got dark, but today at 19 dpo the test line was finally darker than the control line so I think it's time to stop.
GTKY: Any warm beach. Or Spain to visit BIL and SIL.
Next appt: 2/12, first real appt and since I'll be 10 weeks I'm hoping to hear the heartbeat. The N/T scan is 3/1.
Symptoms: nauseated in the afternoons/evenings, exhaustion is kicking in. I took naps this weekend when DS napped, but now it's the work week and this sucks!
Rants/Raves: all the unhealthy food sounds appealing. I want the true winter comfort food! Not my normal style, I'm typically a healthy eater. With DS I lost weight 1st trimester, I might gain this time. The sicker I feel the more pasta, pizza, and cheesy things I want!
GTKY: so many places! Paris, Germany, Hawaii, back to Turks and Caicos.
You know, it's reassuring to read through this. I mean, I hate that everyone's feeling kind of blah and yucky, but I'm kind of glad to see that so many of the things I thought might be odd (like cramps) are totally not odd.
Symptoms/how are you feeling? Feeling very tired but that is probably just because LO has molars coming in. Trying to enjoy not really having any other symptoms
Rants/Raves? Go to sleep baby. Please. Mama is exhausted with these all night parties.
GTKY: If you could go on a vacation tomorrow where would you go? Any Sandals location. I want to be spoiled!
How many weeks? 8w1d EDD? September 4th Next appointment? February 12th Symptoms/how are you feeling? I am very tired and nauseous on and off all day. Rants/Raves? I want to eat all the carbs and I normally eat so healthy. GTKY: To a nice warm beach somewhere in Florida or Mexico!
