How far along are you? EDD?

How are you feeling physically and emotionally?

Any upcoming appointments or milestones?

[sarahh]

How far along are you? EDD? 11w0d (due Jan 2)

How are you feeling physically and emotionally? Physically okay - had my first real appointment with my OB yesterday and because I have a tilted uterus, she tried to move it to get a better result with the Doppler. I'm still kind of crampy today from that. Emotionally, I am starting to believe that this is real. I am actually planning for the next few months. I hope I don't jinx myself by saying that.

Any upcoming appointments or milestones? Next appt for the NT scan is 6/26. I had my panorama blood drawn yesterday so I am anxiously waiting for the next few weeks to pass so I can get the results.

Any other word vomit to share? Nothing at the moment!

GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner)? I've been bad recently. It used to be once or twice a week for dinner and never for lunch but now dinner probably two times each week and lunch 2-3 times.

[cnf]

How far along are you? EDD? 17+3, due 11/18

How are you feeling physically and emotionally? Emotionally I'm good right now. Aside from frustrations over my weight, but what's new, ya know. Physically I'm in a bit of a sweet spot right now, though currently my hip joints are hurting because I've been sitting all day. Stupid test proctoring.

Any upcoming appointments or milestones? AS on 7/5

Any other word vomit to share? Having movement everyday, which love. Just ready for my much needed summer break.

GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner)? Frequently. My parents drag us out like once a week most weeks. On weekends we eat out a lot for our meals. This week and next week I'll be taking advantage of being able to leave school for lunch too. I really need to cut this out though. See above weight comment. Duh.

Hi!!
How far along are you? EDD?
10w2d. Edd is Jan 7
How are you feeling physically and emotionally? still really exhausted but other than that ok. Some people at work know now which is a bit scary.
Any upcoming appointments or milestones? I got my panorama drawn yesterday so I nervous and a bit excited
Any other word vomit to share?
Just hoping I get good results from genetic testing. It should be back next week before my big birthday (4-0!)
]GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner)? average about once a week I think.

[addymac]

Fx to everyone waiting for their bloodwork results!

AFM...

It's quiet up in here. Tell me how you all are!!

How far along are you? EDD? 30+4... 8/19

How are you feeling physically and emotionally? Emotionally - okay. I get nervous when he doesn't kick as soon as I wake up but usually he's pretty awesome at letting me know he's still around! I keep trying not to spiral into "what ifs" of bad things happening between now and post-birth (nuchal cord around neck, true knots, meconium aspiration and pphn, rare metabolic diseases, etc). Loss brain plus NICU RN are not a good combo for me, apparently.

Physically- ugh. I just feel wiped out. Heartburn was terrible today and I've taken two ranitidine, and like six tums. And my feet/ankles won't stop swelling just enough to be uncomfortable. And my underbelly is hurting. I think he moved around and is making me pretty uncomfortable.

Any upcoming appointments or milestones? No appts til next week!

Any other word vomit to share? We got a mini crib from a friend. We had been planning on using a pack & play while he was in our room, but figured we shouldn't pass up a free crib, so now idk what we should do. I picked this pnp out bc it came with a changing pad, bounce chair, and sleeping compartments: graco Everest pnp playard



But now idk what to do!

GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner)? We have been so bad since we were in the middle of moving, but usually we try to limit it to eating out two nights / wk, and usually we rarely went out for lunch, maybe 1 /wk. we need to get back to that bc holy money hole!

[ajetter]

You better check-in ldubhawksfan! 😊

How far along are you? EDD? 8W3D, although at my ultrasound she measured like 3 times and got progressively larger each time, so I think they have my due date as 1/19 instead of 1/21. Can't decide if I personally want to stick with my date, or give myself those extra two days. Lol.

How are you feeling physically and emotionally? Physically I'm tired, have a constant underlying queasy feeling, and I think I have reflux? Emotionally I thought the ultrasound would help me connect, but I still feel, almost nothing. I'm not worried, I'm not excited. And I can tell my friends who have figured me out want me to be excited, they're excited, I just have zero enthusiasm.

Any upcoming appointments or milestones? Next appt is 6/26 to listen for heartbeat and panorama draw.

Any other word vomit to share? My loss milestone is still over three weeks away which feels like forever. And I don't even know if I'll relax after that point. Which sucks. No matter the outcome I think this will be my last pregnancy. I really want to enjoy it.

GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner)? Before I was pregnant it was maybe once or twice. Now it's like 3 or 4 times. Nothing ever sounds good so I hate cooking!

[Waffle]

How far along are you? EDD? 12w4d, 23 December

How are you feeling physically and emotionally? Physically ok, starting to feel a little less tired, at least during the day. Starting to feel excited, the NT scan and the 12 week milestone has helped me relax.

Any upcoming appointments or milestones? Waiting for NIPT test results but it will be 2 weeks Next OBGYN appointment next Wednesday.

Any other word vomit to share? Today is my first full day without the horrid progesterone supplements so happy to be done with that!

GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner)? At the moment once a week, before pregnancy more like 2-3 times. The combination of no alcohol and sleepiness/bloat means I'd rather eat in my pjs

addymac, we have the crib upstairs and the PNP with all the same attachments downstairs. Since we're down there more it's nice to have somewhere to change baby and put them down for a nap in the main part of the house. Then we just use the crib for night time. We loved having both and plan to do the same setup again this time around.

[ldubhawksfan]

How far along are you? EDD? 13.5 weeks 12/16

How are you feeling physically and emotionally? Emotionally ok most of the time. I've been having done back pain which scares me. Most ms is gone with a few exceptions.

Any upcoming appointments or milestones? Not for 3 weeks.

Any other word vomit to share? Waiting for genetic results. I'll feel better once I know it's not trisomy 18 again.

GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner) too often for lunch.

[ldubhawksfan]

Also, TW: LO mentioned

















I'm also really nervous about how to protect my stomach from a toddler who doesn't understand not to jump on it or kick it. I'm worried she is going to harm it.

16w1d edd 11/28

I feel good other than my hips/back hurting. I have an appointment tomorrow and will ask about stretches etc.

I've been feeling a lot more movement but not anything predictable yet. Of course I get nervous if I haven't felt baby in awhile.

I think we will tell the world after tomorrow's appointment. My belly is getting big and most of my close friends already figured it out. I'm definitely feeling anxious about making an official announcement though.

We've gotten so much better about eating out. A few months ago it was pretty much nightly. Now we're down to 1-2x/week. Although I am bad about packing a lunch and go to my works cafeteria often.

That's what we're planning to do as well!

How far along are you? EDD?
29w6d, 8/24

How are you feeling physically and emotionally?
Pretty good. Mainly just getting tired really easily.

Any upcoming appointments or milestones?
No, nothing until 6/30.

Any other word vomit to share?
I'm really anxious to get the nursery set up. Everything is moving so slowly cuz H and I are both working a lot right now and don't have much free time. Our shower is next weekend so I'm hoping it will be mostly done by then, so I have a place to put stuff.


GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner)?

Usually once or twice a week. I wish it was more because I'm so tired every night and do not ever want to make dinner lately.

[Atpeace]

How far along are you? EDD?
36w5d, due 7/7


How are you feeling physically and emotionally?
I've noticed a huge uptick in Braxton Hicks contractions. They are definitely worse at the end of the day, but I've been feeling them a lot all day today.


Any upcoming appointments or milestones?
I see the OB tomorrow for by GBS test. 


Any other word vomit to share?
I think he moved his butt from the left side of my belly to the right side of my belly. Not sure if there is any significance in that.


GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner)?
too often, i suck at grocery shopping

[snowyowl]

How far along are you? EDD? Around four weeks. No dating ultrasound until next month, but EDD will probably be mid-February.

How are you feeling physically and emotionally?
Physically I feel fine. I can't tell if I am having symptoms or just looking for them. Some food tastes off, and I'm very tired but I have a one year old so not unusual.
Emotionally I'm back and forth. I've been fairly zen so far. But the lack of symptoms bothers me (even though I know that doesn't realt mean anything, especially this early), and waiting until July for my first ultrasound feels like forever even though I know an earlier one might not even show anything useful.

Any upcoming appointments or milestones? Just a u/s, waiting for them to call me to schedule.

Any other word vomit to share? I was with an RE for my last pregnancy, so it feels weird to not have any betas, early u/s, etc. Just take an over the counter test and wait!

GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner)? We used to go out all the time. Since DS, we do Blue Apron, which kind of feels like eating out

[peggels24]

How far along are you? EDD? 19 w - due 11/9

How are you feeling physically and emotionally? Physically I'm feeling pretty good -my feet are starting to bloat by the end of the day but otherwise I feel good. Emotionally I'm just trudging along.

Any upcoming appointments or milestones? I have a follow up to my a/s next week because baby wasn't in a good position to get her heart and spine.

Any other word vomit to share? Not really.

GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner)? Way too much. We probably eat out or order in for lunch 4 days a week (I was better before I was pregnant because I would just buy cold cuts and eat them most of the week) and we probably go out or order in dinner 2-4 times per week.

[Cher]

Hi!

How far along are you? EDD? I had to check because I always guess, lol. 31 weeks, 4days.

RCS scheduled for 8/7 but my doctor and specialist decided this week they may take me a week earlier due to my anxiety. So earliest could be end of July!

How are you feeling physically and emotionally? Physically, I have reached the point of pure discomfort. I can't sleep, I toss and turn, the pressure is awful. I hate the end.
Emotionally, I'm okay right now. Last week was a hot mess. This week I'm working out a bit, going to the pool, doing lots of things I enjoy and it's been a nice distraction.

Any upcoming appointments or milestones? I start weekly NST on Monday. It's going to get a little hectic next week. I start my regular visits with my OB and specialists, on top of the NST. I also start weekly cervix checks, so I don't think I will have as much me time next week.

Any other word vomit to share? I told my grandmother I was pregnant tonight. Seemed like it was time.

GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner)? Ummmm .... a lot. Like, a lot. We usually eat out for dinner 2-3 nights a week. Lunch I eat out about 5 times a week. I eat out often for breakfast too. I can cook actually. I'm just either lazy or not home, sometimes both.

I know your DD is a few months younger than L, but she understands gentle with Mama's belly. Sometime she'll get out of hand and I'll warn her and she'll say "Gentle. Baby. Belly." So I think it's worth a try to instruct and remind to try to minimize the number of incidents (assuming you haven't already).

From what I understand though, baby is pretty well protected in there against a toddler.

How far along are you? EDD? Probably early/mid February.

How are you feeling physically and emotionally? Physically ok. Just sore breasts and feeling tired.
I'm trying not to analyze every little twinge.
Any upcoming appointments or milestones? Just scheduled my first appt in July. I'll be breathing into a paper bag until then.

Any other word vomit to share? Ugh I think they gave me the midwife who cried during my last m/c. I might call and change it to somebody else.

GTKY: how often do you eat out (lunch or dinner)? once a week out for lunch and one date night with my h

Thanks. Yeah I've tried to explain there is a baby in my belly and to be gentle, but she is 19 mo so I don't think she understands. She looks confused. I suppose once I get big it will make more sense. I also read this week the ire is still 4" below my belly button, so that made me feel better.
