k, Man, I wish we weren't finding out the sex. I debated just letting H know and keeping it a surprise for myself but I know he'd slip up or cave and tell me anyway. @amc & cch, Congrats on Team Pink!

[/quote]Yes we have never found out until birth! It gets harder every pregnancy. [/quote]
This is the exact thought I had - your post made me wish I had done it with my first as yes I can see how it would only get harder with each child after! I'm excited for you and will live vicariously through your green-ness. 😉💚

DS2 cried big fat elephant tears when I left this morning and it broke my heart 💔. He’s quite the mama’s boy.
I also put my pants on backwards and it took me WAY too long to figure out why my underwear was going up my butt 🤣
And also also, one of my (work) kids just picked his nose and ate it and it took all I had not to barf. Kids are so gross. I repeatedly had to tell him that it’s gross to pick and eat your boogers. And all he could say was why?

k were you team green with your boys? I am always super impressed by anyone who can hold out! I think it is the ultimate way to find out in the delivery room, I just don't have the self-control. 😉 Yes we have never found out until birth! It gets harder every pregnancy. I feel this way too. Especially this time since this baby is our tie breaker (already have a boy and a girl). And especially since DS (3.5) is so convinced it's a boy. I feel like I should find out just so that if it's a girl I have a few months to get him used to the idea. But also I'm selfish and can't wait to have that wonderful surprise at the end again

The doctor called this morning! Our tests came back normal and we have a healthy little... BOY! I’m so shocked lol I really thought it was a girl! I think I was worried that a boy wouldn’t be as close to me as a girl but all the boy moms I’ve talked to say no way is that true and boys have very special relationships with their moms.
I’m already like oh yeah of course it’s a boy and can’t imagine it being a girl. I’m so relieved he’s healthy and growing! I feel so lucky today. I’m very mushy and emotional lol

My coworker brought donuts to celebrate me making it to 12 weeks, so I ordered a smoothie and protein bites for lunch in an attempt to eat something healthy today. Now I can't stop thinking about pizza.

I can't keep track, but congrats to everyone on healthy babies! Seems fairly even so far between boys and girls.
I sent DS off to his first day of kindergarten this morning and I wasn't the least bit sad. He was pretty excited.

Now I can't stop thinking about pizza. How nice of your coworker! It really was! We used it as an opportunity for me to make a little announcement to our cubicle neighbors. She's actually 10 weeks along right now, so we're going to do it again soon when she's 12 weeks

That is cute...and it would work across seasons with tights. I've never shopped from this site - do they offer coupons often? I hope so, because I see like 5 dresses that I'm pretty sure I need.

It's really made the whole experience a little more bearable for both of us. It's nice to work with someone who understands when you have a killer headache or when you're struggling not to get sick during a meeting. On the downside, we're a team of two and we support the entire company, so our boss is either going to have to hire someone soon or train temps to do our jobs while we're on leave! I'm not worried about it. Nope. Not a bit.

Maybe sometimes but more often it just shows up in my Facebook feed tempting me with beautiful maternity clothes that I can’t justify buying!

I think Seraphine cycles through seasons often so you may be able to get what you want on sale in a month or two.
I am having immense guilt about not telling the family friends we are staying with right now about baby. One is my age and we have talked a TON about babies, they know we want #3 and I just feel so deceptive talking about it when I AM pregnant and planning to start telling in a week. 😖 I just hope they will understand, after my loss (early as it was) I have to see baby alive on that ultrasound next week before I can say anything. And this is my MIL's bff and her daughter who I am close to, so I can't risk telling her before MIL or I may be shunned for life.

I'm sure they will understand, especially if they know what you have been through. And I know what you mean about having to be careful about the order you tell people--families especially take this stuff very seriously!

So maybe a week ago I realized instead of grabbing generic unisom from the pharmacy, I'd grabbed a different generic sleeping pill (thankfully also safe for pregnancy and generally works the same so helps with nausea). I've been taking it for weeks! Well the last few days on real unisom have made my nausea so much better, but I'm also knocked out even more tired if that's possible. Does anyone take a day time dose? I tried to at noon yesterday just a quarter pill so if feel better in the evening when DH is home, and it made me feel so disoriented and dizzy all evening.

I only took the unisom at night because it made me so sleepy. I’ve been taking it for awhile now and it doesn’t make me feel knocked out like it did before. It stinks having to choose between feeling sick and feeling drugged and tired.

Pregsomnia sucks so much. Unisom doesn't touch it for me.

My boobs HURT today. They're up a cup size from when I got my BFP, but I have a feeling they're going to get a lot bigger soon.

The glucose drink is the worst. Currently sitting at my OB appointment and trying not to throw it up. So sweet.
