How big is baby?: avocado
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know?: I find out Thurs if baby cooperates
Any Upcoming Appointments?: Thurs for checkup
Symptoms: Headaches. Insomnia. Occasional nausea, but overall feeling better
Milestones: 16 weeks seems significant, but I don't know why.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: I realized I'm still not really showing. It's still all bloat. I'm oddly pissed about this lol.
GTKY: What age do you wish you could permanently be? Health wise? I was in the best place mentally and physically at 26. Except for the smoking and drinking. I'm pretty content with getting older though. I struggled with severe depression and suicide when I was younger, so every year I'm still here is a grand fuck you to my mental illnesses.

When is your due date? How far along are you? : July 4th, 17 weeks 5 days.
How big is baby?: Pomegranate
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: Third time mom
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know?: Pink
Any Upcoming Appointments?: Anatomy Scan Feb 23rd
Symptoms: Tired and crabby
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: I'm going to Florida on vacation next week. I'm really excited to get away from the cold weather and spend some time outside with the girls. My doctor and the CDC are both cool with me going there but I've been spiraling a bit on the Zika stuff. I plan to take lots of precautions and we aren't going to Miami (even though that's no longer an active Zika area now). So I guess that's a Rave with a Rant.
GTKY: What age do you wish you could permanently be? I'm ok with anything in my 30's so far.

When is your due date? How far along are you? : 9/1, 9w2d
How big is baby?: grape
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: fourth
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know?: green
Any Upcoming Appointments?: 2/15
Symptoms: nausea is still the biggest one.
Milestones: nothing notable the past week.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: My husband is leaving for a 9 day trip to India on Wednesday. I've planned and prepared as best I can, but I'm really dreading this business trip. I think first trimester fatigue and nausea coupled with pregnancy irritability just has me in a funk. My kids are going to miss their dad something crazy so I really need to be a good support for them.
GTKY: What age do you wish you could permanently be? This is tough. I'm 35 now, but I'd go back to 30.

When is your due date? How far along are you? : July 24, 15 weeks tomorrow
How big is baby?: an orange
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know?: pink
Any Upcoming Appointments?: 2/7
Symptoms: mostly nasal congestion
Milestones: in second trimester
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: I'm definitely in the nesting phase. I reorganized my closet, cleared out the closet in the soon to be new room for DS, and have started deep cleaning already. I told DH that for Mother's Day I want someone to come to my house and deep clean everything. Then after the baby comes for them to come out couple more times.
GTKY: What age do you wish you could permanently be? That's hard to say. At 38 I feel the most confident that I've ever felt and of course wiser than in my youth but I do miss having more energy. I guess 30 would be nice.

FTM/STM/TTM/etc: First
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know?: Don't know
Any Upcoming Appointments?: Had one today! First "official" OB appointment since the last one was basically just the dating ultrasound. My regular doc was called into an emergency, so I saw the midwife at the practice. she wasn't going to do an ultrasound, but couldn't get the heartbeat on the doppler, so she did a quick ultrasound. So glad she did! It was amazing to see how much baby has grown in the 4 weeks since my last appointment! Next appointment is the NT scan and blood work on 2/8.
Symptoms: A bit more emotional. Nausea and fatigue are starting to ease off!
Milestones: It was exciting to hit double digits.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: Flying to Vegas tomorrow for my birthday! I turn 30 on Wednesday!
GTKY: What age do you wish you could permanently be? Not sure, but glad to see so many saying their 30s are good!

sasam you couldn’t pay me to go back to my 20’s. For me, in my 30’s things fell in place better, people (coworkers) respect you more, etc. I was a mess in my 20’s.

Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: At my doctor appointment today, nurse spent forever trying to find the heartbeat on the doppler and couldn't. Trying not to panic. Then the doctor tried for another ten minutes. Nothing. Awful. Horrible 15 minutes of waiting to get into use the ultrasound machine, and saw a perfect little heartbeat. My loss brain can't handle ittt.

Symptoms: not too much other than being tired and RLP. Yay for 2nd tri!
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: I started progesterone shots to prevent pre term labor this time around so I really hope they work. And I scheduled my anatomy scan for 2/21! I'm so excited to see her up close and hopefully get a decent 3D picture.

I think I would want to go back to being 26/27 as we had finally gotten settled in our house and jobs and it was a really fun time. But I wouldn't want to stay that age forever as I like my 30s with my family now.

twocupsofcoffee, I feel you on wrapping your head around team blue - I'm excited, but it's not how I imagined my family, so I have to figure it out a little bit. You are also making me really glad my OB is obsessed with using the ultrasound - she decided to ultrasound me this week as a reward for patiently waiting an hour while she finished a c section!

How far along are you? : 11 weeks tomorrow
How big is baby?: A fig or lime. I also saw brussel sprout somewhere. It amazes me how each app seems to be inconsistent.
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know?: Don’t know yet
Any Upcoming Appointments?: I have my 12 week appointment on 2/12
Symptoms: Somehow aversions and lessened patience started this week. Overall feeling crappier.
Milestones: Waiting to hit 12 weeks next week
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?: Kind of has to do with my symptoms but I’m not sure why I started feeling crappier at 11 weeks. Still can’t find the HB on the doppler and I’m feeling very anxious for my 12 week appointment which feels like it’s forever away.
GTKY: What age do you wish you could permanently be? 31 - I feel way more confident and self-assured in my 30’s. I felt like there was even some maturing that happened between 30 and 31. At 31 I felt like I still looked like I was in my 20’s 😂 I turned 34 today so I’m not feeling youthful.

klw have you had symptoms indicating you need a cerclage? Or did you with your last pregnancy? Sorry if I missed your explanation. I had one put in with my last pregnancy. My doctor saw I had a strange top to my cervix so when I was checked at 17 weeks, my cervix was shortening. I think 2.8. The next week it was down to 2.6 so they scheduled cerclage. Usually done 13-14 weeks so I was scheduled earlier this time although last check showed my cervix being fine so far.

The measurements were taken with a vaginal ultrasound. And thanks! I get an epidural so I don't feel anything. H is bummed because it means no sex. 😉
