When is your due date? How far along are you? December 5th is my due date. 4 weeks along.
How big is baby? A poppyseed
Team Finding Out / Team Green? Team finding out, I have ZERO chill.
Any Upcoming Appointments? I have my first appointment and dating ultrasound on April 25th. Wooooop. Time please go by very fast. K thanks.
Symptoms: Sore boobs, a little fatigue, emotional AF, very mild nausea, and some cramping. The cramping doesn't feel like it did the first time, it feels like a stretching type of sensation. It's weird. My first pregnancy it felt like period cramps this early on.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I have told a few people at my work that I am KU. Last time I waited until I was almost out of the 1st trimester. I look back now and wish I said something sooner because I was so effing tired I would fall asleep at my desk. Woops. I told my team members and immediate supervisors and I feel good about it.

I am so emotional. Crying at anything right now. I think my boobs are broken and don't get sore with pregnancy lol BLOATED!
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
Rant/Rave - even though feeling like I'm going to puke at any second really sucks, it's also sort of comforting...

TashaLa I had light brown spotting when I was pregnant with N. Also noticed it more after a bowel movement. My OB was very reassuring. He basically was like "Your uterus is under construction, so much is happening, and old blood is making it's way out, which is usually brown." As long as it is spotting and light brown I wouldn't worry. Put your feet up if you can and stay hydrated as much as possible. And if you're becoming concerned, call the doctor for your peace of mind. <3

Team Finding Out / Team Green? Finding Out
Any Upcoming Appointments? Had a phone health history appt today, first (rescheduled) appointment with the midwife is April 5.
Symptoms: Nausea all damn day. Tired, sore boobs
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Told my In-laws over the weekend (we had a get-together for MIL's birthday). Was going to tell my parents on Sunday, which was my mom's birthday, but when I called to Facetime, my dad wasn't home and we couldn't call back later. So I think we'll tell them on Easter since my brother and Grandma will be at their house, too.

How big is baby? Chocolate chip
Team Finding Out / Team Green? Finding out!
Any Upcoming Appointments? Had US last week for dating, but couldn't see baby yet (everything else was good) so I get to go back next week for another.
Symptoms: Sore boobs is the only constant. Everything else is coming in waves. Lately it's smells and everything makes me gag horribly. This morning DD had pooped in her pull up and I couldn't bear the smell. I had to walk out of the room twice and cover my face with a scented wipe to get through it.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I'm impatiently waiting for my US next week. But thankful that they're having me wait until then, because it will be at my last loss date which I think will make me feel better. I still can't admit that this is real and we haven't told our family, just a few close friends. I was planning on doing a cute announcement for Easter but now that the US is after that we'll do something else as long as everything is good!
Also I feel like any time I do anything slightly active I'm ridiculously worn out and get light cramping, which is starting to piss me off, lol. I know I'm not in shape but I can't just sit on the couch all day!

Due date Either 11/15 or 11/23 because my body is crazy.... 11/15 by LMP or 11/23 by cycle length/ O not really sure because timing makes more sense with LMP but I temped
Baby is the size of a lady bug
Team Green all the way
I have my annual apt on Friday. I haven’t called the dr yet. I am being sneaky and still going to the annual playing stupid because I want to talk to this dr. If I call and tell them they will cancel this appointment and reschedule it for 5 weeks from now with a different dr. Because of my miscarriage and how dd was a premie I want to talk to the dr I am comfortable with. I know this isn’t going to be a normal pregnancy. If I don’t like how the first few appointments go I am mentally preparing myself to find a new dr. - apparently that was a rant... sorry
Symptoms Nausea and my boobs are killing me + pure exhaustion

When is your due date? How far along are you? Nov 4th, 8 weeks 3 days
Why are some of your due dates and weeks different than others with the same due date? I always get confused.
How big is baby? Wild strawberry
Team Finding Out / Team Green? I think finding out. It would be nice to wait though.
Any Upcoming Appointments? Had my dating ultrasound last week. Waiting for my first OB appt.
Symptoms: very mild nausea. Gas. Omg the gas.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Anyone have prenatal labs done yet? My urine samples came back abnormal for bacterial growth? What the heck is that from? I redid the test and got the same result. Going back to the doctor today and they had said after the second abnormal urine sample, it will be treated. I have no weird symptoms so its really odd to me.

By LMP, I would be 11/21, but I usually O late (and of course, I was sick during O wit fever, so all my temps are meesed up), so I may be due as late as 11/26. I have my first u/s tomorrow afternoon, so I’m hoping we’ll get a better idea then. 😊 Good luck with your dr!

When is your due date? How far along are you? November 28th. 5 weeks 2 days.
How big is baby? Sesame seed
Team Finding Out / Team Green? Team Green!
Any Upcoming Appointments? I'll be calling today to schedule my first appt. The practice I go to typically makes the first appt around 8 weeks.
Symptoms: With all three of my previous pregnancies, my first symptom was diarrhea first thing in the morning, every morning for a few weeks. That seems to be true this time around as well!
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I'm quietly panicking about this pregnancy, so much so that I've been putting off making an appt. My husband and I weren't completely convinced that we were ready for baby #4, but here we are! I know that the excitement will come (and it already has in little bursts here and there), and that baby will fit into our family just perfectly once he/she arrives, but right now, I'm just worrying about ALL the things! I'm not feeling worried about anything related to the pregnancy or labor/delivery, but more of the logistics for when after baby arrives.

I'm actually the opposite, I'm worried about the pregnancy and birth but not worried at all about after. But also for us adding number 3 was much easier than adding number 2 so I'm assuming adding number 4 will be even easier. Hopefully? Haha

eleephant, you don't know how good it makes me feel to hear that someone else is also crazy enough to be expecting #4...haha! I completely agree with you about the transition from 2 to 3 being much easier than 1 to 2. All of my friends who have more than 3 have said that once you have 3, adding another is just no big deal!
