How far along are you? 12w 2d

How are you feeling (physically/emotionally)? I am getting nervous for my NT scan this Friday. Physically I am still battling morning sickness and nausea. I may be getting some energy back but I am not sure yet.

Any Rants/Raves/Questions you'd like to share/ask? Nope

Any upcoming milestones or appointments? NT scan this Friday and I am hoping I see a healthy baby.

QOTW: What is your signature dish? I am actually not sure what I would consider my signature dish. Right now H is really in to a Greek Cous Cous salad that I make and he wants to eat it regularly. Otherwise I am not sure.

How far along are you? 13w3d

How are you feeling (physically/emotionally)? Besides headache/migraines galore and stuffy nose I think I am finally starting to feel human again. Emotionally I am doing a lot better since it is easier to find the Pumpkin's heart beat. Plus knowing statistics and getting into 2nd tri is making me feel better.

Any Rants/Raves/Questions you'd like to share/ask? I know I had one but I am so forgetful lately. lol

Any upcoming milestones or appointments? Wednesday is our appointments!

QOTW: What is your signature dish?
Almost every other week I make Navajo Tacos.
DH's is probably tacos. lol

How far along are you? 14w4d - it is going slow and fast all at the same time!

How are you feeling (physically/emotionally)? Pretty good. Definitely anxious for my appointment next week. I feel like I need the reassurance that her heart is beating strong. I never had a pregnancy loss but I am not naïve as I once was...

Any Rants/Raves/Questions you'd like to share/ask? Ok so this is a techie question. How do you get the expecting a rainbow picture to your signature? I don't even know if my signature will take it because of how long it is (but I feel all is important - to me at least).

Any upcoming milestones or appointments? Next Monday!!

QOTW: What is your signature dish? Green bean bundles!! Everyone asks for them when we are having a pot luck. Green beans wrapped in bacon with drizzled Catalina dressing. Yum!

How far along are you? 12w,3d

How are you feeling (physically/emotionally)? Still battling with nausea, mainly in the evenings which is fine because I can just take my Unisom and go to bed once DD is down. Emotionally I'm alright, starting to feel a bit of anxiety creeping up again. I had my 12w appt today and my ob couldn't find the hb on the Doppler (which is normal for me), but the deafening silence of the Doppler static is a PTSD trigger for me from my experience losing DD1. She was very sweet and took me right to the ultrasound room and we were able to see baby's heart beating away.

Any Rants/Raves/Questions you'd like to share/ask? Are there any late-term loss moms on this board? If so, I would love to talk via PM.

Any upcoming milestones or appointments? Nothing for a month now. Had my ob appt and NT scan today.

QOTW: What is your signature dish? Bang bang chicken and/or shrimp over coconut rice. It hasn't sounded good since I found out I was pregnant but it's making my mouth water thinking about it now.

I'm not much of a corn dog person.
