How far along are you? (weeks/fruit): 8 weeks 3 days - a raspberry or wild strawberry

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically, I've gotten the slightest reprieve from my strong, unrelenting nausea. It is still there, but at a much more manageable level as long as I take my ginger pills, suck on Preggie Pop drops, and don't let my tummy get too empty... or too full. Just in time too since we have an out of town event this weekend with a lot of people who I'm not going to announce to until the end of first tri! Emotionally, I'm feeling like this may actually be happening. We had a good u/s last Tuesday and I have another scan scheduled for tomorrow! After that I won't have one for 4 weeks, so that makes me nervous. But, if I get a good scan again tomorrow hopefully that will relieve some of my nervousness!

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: I got ahead of myself and put this above.

GTKY: I would travel to the future and give myself the next big winning lotto numbers

How far along are you? (weeks/fruit): 9+2, cherry

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Pretty good! We heard the heartbeat again last week so that made me relieved. Physically starting to feel better as well...symptoms are definitely lessening. (This also makes me nervous though!)

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Progenity blood draw in 2 weeks.

GTKY: If you could time travel (one round trip) would you go to the future or to the past? Bonus point for the why! Good question! Prior to this election I would have said travel to the future, but now I'm pretty scared to see what the world will look like after his presidency. So I vote for the past!

How far along are you? (weeks/fruit): 13w3d a jalepeno maybe? I can't remember.

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically much better than I have been, but still getting afternoon nausea and headaches. Emotionally... mostly good. Yesterday was my EDD from my loss and I actually forgot until this morning. Which made me feel guilty. But I guess overall that is good, the loss isn't hanging over me anymore. I don't think I'll truly feel 'safe' until I'm holding this girl, but I'm starting to let myself get more excited and attached.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: Had a basic appt on Monday. Heart beat still strong at 155.

GTKY: If you could time travel (one round trip) would you go to the future or to the past? Bonus point for the why! I'd probably go back to the year after we got married, just to experience that just the two of us bliss again. I want to know what my future holds, but what if it turns out bad and then that is just hanging over me? Ignorance is sometimes bliss.

How far along are you? (weeks/fruit): 12w0d

How are you feeling physically? Emotionally? Physically back to normal and emotionally pretty good.

Upcoming Appointments or Milestones: NT scan today showed "normal" so baby is low risk for Down's, major chromosome issues and heart defects. They drew blood for the Panorama test and those results will be back in about 14 business days. I follow up with MFM in 4 weeks for another scan to make sure everything is still on track. Baby measured exactly 12 weeks with a heart rate of 174. It took the tech awhile to get the NT measurement, baby was in the right position but we needed him/her to lift the head up to make sure she wasn't measuring the membrane.

GTKY: If you could time travel (one round trip) would you go to the future or to the past? Bonus point for the why! Probably the past. I have an ancestor who came over on the Mayflower and I would kinda like to see what that was like. I also have an ancestor who signed the Declaration of Independence (a relative but not a direct descendant)
