Bonus points for bloat, blump, bump pics 😊 Weeks pregnant: 12 weeks (tomorrow) Baby is the size of a: plum FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM Team: Finding out as soon as they’ll tell me Appointments: NT scan and genetic testing tomorrow Symptoms: peeing all the time, sore nipples, constipated, weird dreams and some insomnia Milestones: My previous loss was at 12 weeks so I’m anxiously awaiting tomorrow’s appointment. Making it to 12 weeks with a healthy LO feels like a big milestone for me. Rants/Raves/Vents: Can’t wait to see LO tomorrow! GTKY: Is there somewhere you’ve always wanted to visit? I’ve never been to NYC but I’ve always wanted to go. I’d also love to visit somewhere in Florida where there’s clear water and white sand

Weeks pregnant: 11w6d -- Feels like cheating because I'm measuring 3 days behind this (and I know I ovulated at least 5 days later than CD 14). But now that I have an official due date from the OB office, I will go by that.
Baby is the size of a: Fig
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM
Team: Finding out.. soon! NIPT results should be here later this week or early next week.
Appointments: I had one last week, and all was well. I am still very nervous about genetic testing results, which will be in soon.
Symptoms: Less nausea, still exhausted though. Insomnia, digestive issues, boobs getting bigger and leaking, all the typical stuff.
Milestones: Getting past the appointment was huge!
Rants/Raves/Vents: Still deciding if I want my NIPT results online vs. waiting for the OB to call me.
GTKY: Is there somewhere you’ve always wanted to visit? Hawaii would be amazing. One day.

Bonus points for bloat, blump, bump pics 😊
Weeks pregnant: 13w5d
Baby is the size of a: lemon
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: FTM
Team: finding out!
Appointments: saw healthy baby last Wednesday. Next appointment is end of August
Symptoms: morning sickness is easing off. I just feel tired and I get out of breath easily. We went to Disney this weekend and walking around in the heat was no bueno for me.
Milestones: the end of the first trimester is in two days!!
Rants/Raves/Vents: upset with my doctor about the cost of the genetic screening. I feel financially unprepared to have a baby sometimes even though MH and I have good jobs. The costs are already adding up so quickly and I have cc debt. Womp womp. But we got to see baby and baby looks like a baby now! ❤️
GTKY: Is there somewhere you’ve always wanted to visit? Italy! But definitely not while preggo! I want to drink all the wine!

Weeks pregnant: 12w tomorrow
Baby is the size of a: jelly donut hole
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: TTM
Team: Finding out at anatomy scan
Appointments: Friday for 12w visit and I have to do the 1hr GTT due to previous GD. Not looking forward to that
Symptoms: Nausea. Still so much nausea but having some more okay days lately. Headaches. Fatigue.
Milestones: Almost to the end of 1st tri!
Rants/Raves/Vents: I'm having a lot of anxiety lately. I can't shake the feeling that something is going to be wrong at my next visit. I have no reason to thinks this but I'm still worried. PGAL brain sucks. I just want to be as to relax and enjoy this pregnancy. Trying to remind myself that hope doesn't make bad things happen and today I am pregnant. I have access to US at the hospital and can scan myself which I might break down and do this week just to ease my anxiety.
GTKY: Is there somewhere you’ve always wanted to visit? Hawaii. I've been fortunate to travel a good bit but have never made it there and would love to. Colorado is another place on my list.

tngrl3, PGAL anxiety sucks so much. I always find it gets worse before appointments, too. I hope the scan on Friday (or sooner) is reassuring and you can start to enjoy the pregnancy.

Weeks pregnant: 15+2 Baby is the size of a: navel orange/Eggo waffle/avocado FTM/STM/TTM/etc: TTM Team: Green Appointments: 16 week check up is a week from today Symptoms: still getting nauseated if I let myself go too long without eating. RLP has been pretty bad--I have to be careful when I get out of bed or up off the couch! Milestones: I'm feeling little pops of movement more often now! Rants/Raves/Vents: I'm back at work today after being gone for a week for my Trial Academy. My nanny also gave her notice while I was away so not only am I trying to dig out from an absolute mountain of work, but I also have to find time this week to do nanny interviews. Never a dull moment, I guess. GTKY: Is there somewhere you’ve always wanted to visit? I have so many! I actually have been very fortunate to do a lot of traveling, but still would like to go to Peru, Thailand, Japan, India, Turkey, and Germany, and go back to Israel, Italy, Ireland, and France. MH and I also have a goal to visit all 50 U.S. capitals and I think we only are at like 18 or so, so we still have a lot more exploring to do

@amc DS2 is still nursing sporadically too. he will go a few days without nursing, but then if he sees me changing or if I’m wearing a tank top, he will ask to nurse. I don’t think there’s anything in there though. He nurses for ten seconds and then he’s good. also, it hurts a lot. I’m a little worried he will want to nurse more when baby comes and the boobs are out all the time. But we have time i guess.

Weeks pregnant: 12+1
Baby is the size of a: Macaron
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: STM
Team: Finding out soon!
Appointments: NT scan and NIPT tomorrow afternoon; 12-week checkup on Wednesday.
Symptoms: Nausea is mostly gone, bloating is getting better, super tired, lots of headaches, breast soreness picked up again last week, still feeling meh about food unless it’s junk.
Milestones: (TW) As of yesterday, I’ve finally passed my most recent and latest loss milestone, and LO’s little heartbeat is still going strong. Having a home Doppler this time around has been so helpful for my anxiety.
Rants/Raves/Vents: I’m nervous about my first tri screening tomorrow. Looking forward to next week when I hopefully have low-risk results and can breathe easier.
GTKY: Is there somewhere you’ve always wanted to visit? I still haven’t been to Disneyworld! We’re thinking about a trip around our 10-year anniversary. DS will be 7 and this LO will be 4. We would need to set aside time for the Wizarding World, too, because I’m a ridiculous HP nerd.

Finally got a chance to sneak a bathroom pic! This is my first day at work in a maternity top. I’m not making an announcement because awkward (this is not a super close department)...everyone can just figure it out on their own

You look great CharlieB! I've been wearing maternity pants for a while, but I'm still in regular tops. I have a small bump now, and I look obviously pregnant in maternity tops. I plan to hide it until I tell my supervisor, which I am really dreading :/

notagoddess Foxy Thank you!! I’m roughly the same size that I was at 16 weeks with DS and feeling pretty self-conscious, so your compliments are definitely appreciated ❤️

CharlieB , you look adorable! Love the top. I am at the point where I feel so much better wearing maternity stuff. It's cut to make the bump look cute whereas some of my non-mat stuff just looks weird. Although, today I put on one of my pretty maternity dresses that I wore with DD and it looked...not cute. I think it's because I stretched it out too much last time So I'll be saving that one for third tri I guess.

Weeks pregnant: 13w 3d
Baby is the size of a: Lemon
FTM/STM/TTM/etc: TTM
Team: Finding Out
Appointments: Wednesday. (My midwife bumped me up a week.)
Symptoms: Feeling pretty decent as long as I get enough to eat. I am already having some hip and back pain which has me nervous for what is to come.
Milestones: I have pretty much told all family and close friends at this point.
Rants/Raves/Vents: I would like to have some genetic testing done, but I am frustrated by the cost. I feel like I need to know, but I also feel like it is cost prohibitive.
GTKY: Is there somewhere you’ve always wanted to visit? I have never seen the grand canyon.
