If it makes you feel a little better I’ve had a couple headaches (including right now) and I’ll be 10w tomorrow. The first trimester is really hard but you are doing the best you can 🫶🏻

I’m sorry 😞 Something similar happened to me. I have no idea why someone would ask. Pregnant couples decide when they want to tell people. No one is wandering around waiting for someone to ask 🫠

I think this is a great idea! I haven't heard of this before but sounds sweet! I would love some alone time relaxing. I'm usually an active person but I'm so tired I could lounge all day. My husband is not a lounger lol so if we went on a baby moon I have a feeling it'd be pretty solo for me 😂

Amazing work!! Have you met other hikers going these distances?

Bruh look at a map 😂😂😂 there are 7 continents

Mexico and Costa Rica are in North America

This is a good way to describe it, a slight hangover lol

Yes! I’m gaslighting myself into thinking it’s allergies but it’s not

YES! I'm 6w5d now but that first week was SOOOO SLOW! After 4.5-5 weeks I was able to focus on other things but dang it was a struggle!

My best friend just told me she's (unexpectedly) pregnant and we gushed over how amazing raising kids together would be. I had a loss so she was scared to tell me, luckily I'm also pregnant lol. I definitely feel you that what if something happens but we know we can get pregnant and even if this doesn't go the way we want those babies will have a playmate just a little farther down the line. This is what is keeping me together. I'm going to have a baby one day.

I felt nauseous since the beginning but not to vomming level until last night at 6w2d. Literally all it took was my husband talking about food and I did get sick lol

I think vanlife with kids full time is a bit selfish. My husband and I have been traveling and living in our van full time for 5 years. We're going to settle down now and have kids. We'll still go on trips but living in a house.

Studies show the key to happiness and a long life is community. While the vanlife community is strong I think it's easier to have connections and be involved while residing in one place for an extended period.

I think a big part of the nomadic groups is they still have community since they travel together. Whereas a lot of vanlife families are more come and go with friends and family

Huacachina, desert oasis on the way to Nazca.

Ollantaytambo is cool, lot of ruins and hikes. I think the hike we did was called Sun Gate.

Not sure if you have a car or if you're outdoorsy but we backpacked around Auzangate for 4 days and it was a highlight of our 3 month trip. It's a couple hours from Cusco. Off the beaten path and you don't need a guide.

You could also go down to the Amazon to Puerto Maldonado.

I would prioritize the smaller corners of Peru. The nature is incredible

Earth Chimp is the best I’ve found 🙌🏻🙌🏻 It mixes so well with oat milk and banana or just water. It’s never grainy and the vanilla is tasty without being too sweet. We get a new bag every month

THIS! I'm constantly touching my boob to make sure it hurts even when I'm nauseous and hate my favorite food 😂

Yes! Even with quick stretches I feel sore too 😩

TW MC. My first pregnancy I told my mom, my dad and stepmom and my best friend at 8 weeks (before hearing a heartbeat) and I did miscarry at 10 weeks. It was pretty awful telling my family that. My mom and dad had me by accident so she really had no idea how to react, she also has narcissistic tendencies. My dad was the best, he called me all the time just to ask how I was doing. So many times I felt terrible and somehow he was calling me then. My best friend was nice keeping me distracted and listening to me. My stepmom was also great, she has suffered a lot of grief so she knew what to say.

A lot of people found out after the miscarriage as well, my sister, my in laws, my husbands aunt and uncle (they're OBGYNs) and a cousin. Still my dad was the only one that was really there for me.

This time I will wait to tell people. We don't live near any family at the moment so it'll be easy to hide. I'll be seeing my dad when I'm 13 weeks so I think that will be a good time. Then everyone else after that. But you never know! I may change my mind if everything looks okay.

Would you be able to try soy curls? They're dehydrated soy protein in the shape of chicken strips. You can rehydrate them in vegetable broth or just water. I have pulled them apart before to make faux chicken sammies. You can find them on amazon or health food stores.

Wow, this is the rudest thing I've ever seen.

The meati mushroom chicken is delicious!!

I'm sorry you had to go through this 🫶🏻

I got my beta results back 😃 16 DPO 372 and 18 DPO it’s 975. Doubling time: 34.53 hrs! Now (of course) I’m like uh oh is that too fast lol. Progesterone is 24.59

I'm beta testing, I did two so far. I had a previous MC so if my levels weren't looking good enough I would go on progesterone. They looked strong though!
