I thought it would be fun to start this! Maybe it will encourage more newbies to jump in  When is your due date/How far along are you? How big is baby? Team Girl / Boy / Green? Any Upcoming Appointments? Symptoms? Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? GTKY: How many other kids do you have? Boy/girl, how old are they? Tell us about them! |

When is your due date/How far along are you? March 21 / 4w4d How big is baby? Sawdust Team Girl / Boy / Green? Finding out for sure! Any Upcoming Appointments? I had my second betas drawn yesterday so I'm waiting to hear back on those to see if I have to do another round and if they'll get me in for an early u/s again. Symptoms? Boobs huuuuuuurt. I'm slightly nauseous in the middle of the day, eating usually helps. I've been sleeping terribly but that's at least partly due to getting over the bug, too. Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I feel pretty disconnected but not in a bad way? It feels like this is happening to someone else. I don't have the doomed feeling I had with my others this year but I don't feel excitement quite yet, either. GTKY: How many other kids do you have? Boy/girl, how old are they? Tell us about them! One girl! She turned 3 in April and is the coolest kid ever. She has definitely been an easy baby/ kid so I'm sure I'm in for it with the next one, but I'm preparing myself for that |

I thought it would be fun to start this! Maybe it will encourage more newbies to jump in When is your due date/How far along are you? Due date is March 27, 2019 which makes me 3w5d. How big is baby? As big as a poppyseed! Team Girl / Boy / Green? We are for sure finding out but I’m not leaning one way or the other. We already have a 5.5 yr old DD. Any Upcoming Appointments? I have a confirm pregnancy with my PCP on Aug 3. Symptoms? Tender breasts, gassy, emotional and v bloated. Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Everyone already calmed my crazy from earlier. I just need to breathe and wait to hear about betas from my PCP. GTKY: How many other kids do you have? Boy/girl, how old are they? Tell us about them! I already answered above but we have a 5.5 DD and she is the light of my life. She’s such a great kid, was a horrible baby though! |

Thanks for getting this going pambee it does feel like we’re ready for a real check in now! 😱🎊 When is your due date/How far along are you? EDD March 6 :::opens app to check::: 6w5d How big is baby? Baby is a blueberry Team Girl / Boy / Green? Team finding out, doing the Panorama NIPT at the very beginning of August should know by mid month I guess? Any Upcoming Appointments? Ultrasound this Wednesday, 7 weeks exactly Symptoms; EXHAUSTION. If I snack continuously I keep the nausea at bay but I’m trying not to gain without control this time (already over my healthy weight from the get go). But it is what it is, right. Basically just your typical needing to pee a lot, chin acne, sore boobs, and bloat. I’m craving weird things like salt, hot banana peppers, vinegar, and ice cream so that definitely “feels” pregnant. Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Just a rave that I tried getting all 3 car seats we own into our little Honda Fit and it worked! 🙌🏻 2 dionos and a Britax bucket seat. I definitely though the baby would have to go right into a Diono convertible but I’m happy this worked out with what we already own. If a third pregnancy is like a second, I’ll be the size of a house by early second tri so I needed to know NOW if I could get the job done. This way when MH has to do it later he won’t be able to say “nah doesn’t work” and give up because I’ve proven it does 😝. He’s less stubborn than me. GTKY: How many other kids do you have? Boy/girl, how old are they? Tell us about them! I have 2 DD’s and they are quite the pair. D1 is 4.5 and D2 will be 2.5 in September. They will both attend a morning preschool program come fall and they are ballet obsessed. It’s been a learning curve as I was more of a tomboy type growing up but now I can’t imagine life with less glitter and tulle. They are both gaga for babies (especially our nephew) and D1 recently announced out of nowhere “mama, I wish you could have one more baby in your belly, that’s my wish.” I look forward to the day we get to tell them it’s happening, but that won’t be for a long time. I suppose it’s a blessing I always look 6 months pregnant anyways, they won’t notice anything. 😂 |

Tiny. I guess I should download a tracking app. #secondkidproblems

I'm going for bloodwrk to confirm the pregnancy tomorrow morning.

On and off cramping. I had some spotting last week that I thought was the beginning of my period. I wore my menstrual cup and everything but then it continued to be spotting so I took a test.
GTKY: How many other kids do you have? Boy/girl, how old are they? Tell us about them
I have a daughter that turned 3 in April. She's stubborn and smart and I stay at home with her. I'm very excited that she will be in preschool 2 days a week in the fall.

I do find it amusing I did it twice. I guess pregnancy brain is another symptom to add to the list.

When is your due date/How far along are you?
3/27
How big is baby?
Probably poppyseed? I'm guessing
Team Girl / Boy / Green?
I'll find out
Any Upcoming Appointments?
Repeat beta on Wednesday and OB on Thursday
Symptoms?
The wolf nose! I can smell really well when I'm pregnant.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
Just trying to stay calm. Nervous that I am just in the time of happy bliss before it all goes away again and leaves me with more heartbreak. But I can't change what's going to happen, so I will do my best to enjoy today.
GTKY: How many other kids do you have? Boy/girl, how old are they? Tell us about them!
Girl, 3 next month. A spitfire, for sure.

MH was just diagnosed with shingles. JTTW. I’m reading there’s a 1% increased risk of birth defects if I develop shingles myself, but that since I’ve had chickenpox overall everything is ok.

Hoping you can avoid that, it’s not a fun thing to have to deal with. Hope your H feels better soon, and hat you don’t have to worry about it! |

Hi! Got a squinter yesterday, a line today, though my stupid nurse won't move up my beta that's already scheduled for NEXT Monday. (And yes, I'll be calling every day til my favorite receptionist is back in office LOL. I miss my old nurse greatly!)
When is your due date/How far along are you? 3+2 so 3/31/19?
Team Girl / Boy / Green? Team finding out with Harmony test at 10.5 weeks.
Any Upcoming Appointments? Betas currently scheduled for Monday next week, trying to get in on Friday so on Monday I can get 2nd betas.
Symptoms? My pop tastes disgusting!!! Nausea, super tired.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Joining in even before it's official via betas because my mantra is "today I am pregnant". I'm also thankful- DD was conceived via first round of IUI and this was our first round of IUI this time too (TTC#2 since May 2017 though)
GTKY: How many other kids do you have? Boy/girl, how old are they? Tell us about them! DD was March 2017 baby!
