When is your due date? How far along are you? 09/17 ; 6W
How big is baby? Maine blueberry
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Will find out
Any Upcoming Appointments? Not yet
Symptoms: Exhaustion still and now I can add intermittent nausea and hot flashes to the list
Milestones:
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I just generally feel blah. DD still doesn't know yet but she mentioned last night that she wanted another baby but she was worried about what happened last time. I want to wait to tell her until we have an ultrasound, etc and I can't wait to see her face when she finds out.

When is your due date? How far along are you? SEPT 19, 5w5d
How big is baby? A dot snail
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? No idea.
Any Upcoming Appointments? First appt Feb 5
Symptoms: round ligament pain, gas, voracious appetite, nausea- too soon for all of it!
Milestones: none I can think of
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? We bought some of those silly eggs that you crack open to tell our family. Being overseas we wanted to do something fancy. My mom is dense so it has to be spelled out for her. 😂
My first pregnancy I texted my mom, dad and step-dad all at the same time a picture of a digital test that said pregnant, and she was (2 hours later) just like what was that weird picture you sent me about? 🤔🤔🤔

When is your due date? How far along are you? 7w by LMP. EDD of 9/10.
How big is baby? Brookesia micra chameleon (I have no idea what this is hahahahah)
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? I think we'll find out this time.
Any Upcoming Appointments? First appt is tomorrow! We are having our dating u/s as well, so we should get a definitive date set tomorrow. Hopefully all goes well. I'm incredibly nervous....
Symptoms: I don't know anymore. And this is scaring me. Until like Friday, I had some serious food aversions to chicken. I would get kinda nauseous after eating almost anything. And then that all went away....
Milestones:
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Well I kinda ranted against my lack of symptoms hahaha. All the food and eating ones just kinda disappeared and that freaks me out a bit. But, and I'm hoping this is a good thing, since Sat, I've been falling asleep at like 9pm. So maybe I'm just switching from feeling like crap after I eat to just wanting to sleep?

When is your due date? How far along are you? Sept 8th (based off my u/s) I 7w 2d
How big is baby? 1/4 of an inch
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? I am still undecided, I want to wait my h is very much against waiting.
Any Upcoming Appointments? They don't want me to see the nurse for the family history appointment until 10 weeks- then they will have me see the doctor at 12. With my last pregnancy the appointments were 8 & 10, its like they enjoy torturing me.
Symptoms: I get nauseous when I need to eat, I am always over heated and so much acne!
Milestones:

When is your due date? How far along are you?
9/17 6 weeks today
How big is baby? Lady bug, blueberry, chocolate chip
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? We will be team green again! It was so fun with dd!
Any Upcoming Appointments? Ultrasound on Thursday. I'm super nervous, we had a blighted ovum with our first so I'm hoping we see a baby in there.
Symptoms: hungry all the time, nausea really kicked in this morning (already got my sea bands out) boobs are a little sore, sometimes a little dizzy/light headed
Milestones:
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Does anyone else have a hard time not comparing this pregnancy to previous ones? Every symptom I have or don't have I'm comparing to my previous two pregnancies and if things are not like dd's I tend to get a little worried. I know all pregnancies are different but it's still so hard not to compare!

Another question: do I need to put a trigger warning in my above post about my previous ultrasound that didn't turn out well? I Don't want to make anyone upset, but not sure if it's needed.

I figure, he has no control over anything else that happens during pregnancy so he should be able to make that decision. He was all about finding out until like the week before with DD and then changed his mind and went green. So there's still hope! |

When is your due date? How far along are you? 9/20 based on LMP so 5w4d
How big is baby? black peppercorn
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? We'll find out
Any Upcoming Appointments? Not for a while. OB history with a nurse on 2/13 then OB physical with a dr on 3/15, I do need to call and schedule the NT scan/related bloodwork since I forgot to tell them I wanted to do it when we scheduled the other 2 appts.
Symptoms: Fatigue, bloating. That first migraine Friday may or may not have been related.
Milestones: Nothing
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? It has actually started to sink in that this is happening. Probably because bloat is already making my pants uncomfortable.

When is your due date? How far along are you? EDD 9/25 4w6d How big is baby? Poppyseed Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Still thinking Team Green! MH hasn't fully accepted this plan yet, but then I told him how cool it would be if HE got to announce the big news when baby is born. That peaked his interest  I'm sure he'll go with it if it's really what I want. Any Upcoming Appointments? Due to some insurance issues, I had to push back my betas to this week. I'll go tomorrow and Thurs. Symptoms: Beginning to get some nausea coming on...... And I'm getting some bruising and soreness on my belly from my injections. Milestones:Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I've somehow already gone off the deep end looking at nursery stuff and researching double strollers...... I've gotta slow way, way down. It's gonna be a LONG 8 months with my crazy, obsessive self.

I will add we are team we will find out the sex. I have two boys already and my mom will be too annoying to deal with if I don't tell her.
She will also buy a full girl's wardrobe before she knows. So no surprises here!

If anyone would like a double recommendation I Love my joovy caboose graphite ultralight sit and stand. You can configure it to be a sit and stand, two seats or a seat/stand configuration with a babyseat.

For car seats I ended up narrowing it down between Britax Boulevard and Chicco Nextfit. On Amazon Prime Day I ordered 2 of each so I could check them out at home. Yup - unless #2 comes early, DS will have just turned 2 when this one arrives. I'm going to get an UPPAbaby Vista. I absolutely love my UPPAbaby Cruz so I'm not even going to look at anything else. Really I wish I had just bought the Vista from the start but both even the Cruz was expensive so I didn't want to spend more money at that point. I'm probably going to look into selling the Cruz to put the money towards a Vista. |

Oh, and after all that I ended up returning all 4 car seats to Amazon because even though I decided on the Chicco Nextfit, I ended up buying them from Babies R Us to use up all my gift cards in case they became worthless during the whole bankruptcy thing. |

When is your due date? How far along are you?9/15, 6w2d How big is baby?Ladybug or Blueberry. Although I've never seen a ladybug the size of a blueberry so...who knows Team Pink/blue/green/don't know?Team finding out Any Upcoming Appointments?Not until mid-Feb, when I first meet with my Dr. I had my nurse appt last week and need to go back to get my blood work done this week sometime. Symptoms:Sore boobs. Hungry ALL THE TIME. I felt nauseous yesterday morning but that's been it so far. I'm exhausted from when I wake up to when I fall asleep, but I have a heck of a time staying asleep. Ugh. Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?I'm honestly already worried about my weight gain this time. After DD I lost all my pregnancy weight pretty quickly, but since then have gained almost all of it back 🙈 And I'm starving all.the.time. Literally non stop. I can eat a giant meal, feel stuffed, and 30 minutes later want to eat more. I really need to get some healthier things to snack on and help make me full. Anyone have any suggestions for their go to snack?

I'm probably going to look into selling the Cruz to put the money towards a Vista. This is what started it for me! There's an Uppababy Vista double for a great price on my local Craigslist! I was totally sold! Until I did my obsessive research and found out that the front Rumble Seat has a max child height limit of only 36 inches... DS is around 34 inches already now. IF he still fits in it when #2 comes, he won't fit for very long. So that pretty much ke-boshed the Uppababy Vista for us  |

pambee I am right there with you on weight gain. I'm already overweight and I post all my baby weight from ds2 and then I have gained a lot of weight back since. But my appetite is insane! I try to do unsweetened applesauce or dried pineapple for sweet snacks. For savory I just fail because I eat all the fresh bread and butter.

I'm sure he'll go with it if it's really what I want.
