    7. Wishing you all a very healthy and happy new year!!

  3. 1. What week/trimester are you in now? Week 11, looking forward to 2nd tri soon!
    2. Any new symptoms (or disappearing symptoms) this week? My nausea has subsided a bit so I can eat more normally. I'm very gassy/bloated which makes my belly stick out a bit. I can tell my emtions are running higher than normal too.
    3. What are you looking forward to most in 2010 (other than obvious!)? Besides the baby, moving to my hometown to be by mine and DH's families and not working once the baby comes!
    4. What are your plans for your alcohol free NYE 2009? Hanging with my parents and brothers and sisters and their kids :)
    5. If you could make ONE WISH for your LO in 2010 what would it be? Of course I just want the baby to be healthy, but other than that I hope the baby is smiley and happy.
    6. How crazy is it that this time next year we will have our little babies with us? Absolutely crazy. I still tell my DH it doesn't seem real and I'm not sure if I'm ready...he keeps telling me we can't be ready until the baby's here.
    7. Anything else you want to share???

  4. 1. 12 weeks.
    2. Headaches.
    3. Not much else because I'm so excited for baby. But I guess mine and DH's first anniversary.
    4. We aren't drinkers any way so our plans don't really get changed. Going to a friends for board games and movies.
    5. That LO comes into the world happy and healthy!
    6.Crazy but awesome! Can't wait to have a LO at Christmas.
    7. My head hurts so bad but DH is driving up to my work right now to bring me meds. Yay!

  6. 1) 12 weeks 3 days, one week left in first tri and I started lurking on 2nd tri today so I don't ask the stupid questions!
    2) I can't seem to hold my belly in as much any more (fat belly, not preggo belly) so come nighttime I look about 6 months along.
    3) Everything baby related! We don't have any spectacular plans for 2010 other than the baby.
    4) Going to Boston to see friends of ours as usual. Should be a great time!
    5) Well I will say happy and healthy like the rest, but also not overdue and giant. If LO wants to come early so I can go to a wedding I am scheduled to miss as long as baby is ok then I will be cool with that.
    6) That is ridiculous to think about! Christmas with baby and everything but wonderful!
    7) Wishing a happy new year to all the July mamas!

  10. 1. 10w4d - get to hear the hb tomorrow!!!!
    2. I've had a bit more queasiness (never really had it til this point). Otherwise the same, SUPER sore boobies, super tired.
    3. Possibly a babymoon, my growing baby bump, 3 months off maternity leave from work.
    4. Not sure yet. Probably going to a friend's party and drinking lots of sparkling grape juice!!
    5. That LO is born healthy as can be and knows how much he/she is loved by Mom & Dad.
    6. I can't believe that next Christmas we'll have our LO with us. We plan to not travel and just spend Christmas at our own home with our new family just enjoying time together and starting our own traditions. We couldn't be happier at that thought!

  12. 1. 13 weeks and 1 day! 2nd trimester, I think? I see various answers at various places.
    2. My aerolas and nipples got even darker and bigger!!!! Still have m/s though. Threw up last yesterday.
    3. What are you looking forward to most in 2010 (other than obvious!)? Turning 30 with my husband, and definitely the baby.
    4. Actually, I had a half glass of champagne on Christmas Day in toast to our future--my mom offered me it and being pretty much 2nd tri I accepted. I think a rare drink is fine based upon some recent medical studies. A sip or two of champagne will probably happen on NYE at the 5 star restaurant we are going out to.
    5. Happy and healthy. That's the best thing to hope for.
    6. It seems amazing, but not really crazy, funny enough. We feel super ready. We did everything timing-wise exactly as we wanted it.
    7. NT for 12/31/09. We're wondering if we might get a guess on the sex. Our choices for names are girl: Alice, and boy: Alastair or Mattias.
