Appointments: June 18

Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): green

Milestones: getting bigger LOL

Rants: just hating the warmer weather. TX is the worst.

Raves: I'm getting a hair cut Wednesday. Going to chop it all off and donate it. So excited!

Week/Fruit/EDD: 21w / bok choy / Oct 14th

FTM, Etc: STM

Appointments: 6/18

Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Blue

Milestones: Officially in the second half

Symptoms: I had back pain for about 30 min last week, but it went away pretty quickly. Just constant peeing aside from that. I think my consistent workout routine is keeping my aches and pains at bay for the time being. (I did no activity last time and was already feeling yucky at this point.)

Rants: Nothing really, right now. Someone remind me of this time when I'm miserable in 3rd tri.

Raves: Last week I complained about MH not even talking about names with me yet, but that night we went out to dinner and had a long names convo. I think we decided on something! We're still sitting on it, but I think we're both into it, so I'm excited we have something.

GTKY: Do you collect anything? I also like to get Christmas ornaments when we travel. I have a lot of books, but I'm trying to get rid of them.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 23/an ear of corn/9.27

FTM, Etc: 4th

Appointments: end of the month

Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Pink

Milestones: I feel like I had quite a growth spurt over the past week! There's no mistaking the bump now, unless I'm wearing a hoodie or something like that.

Symptoms: Tired, BH contractions (those have been going on for a while, actually), tired.

Rants: I don't really have any atm. Once the m/s is over, it's fairly smooth sailing until the latter half of 3rd tri. I love this part!

Raves: Got to see baby girl again! They got a much better look at her heart and I got more printed u/s pictures...she looks like she blowing a kiss in one. Too cute.

NBR: we finally found a house we like and put an offer in! It was accepted after a counteroffer so, assuming inspection goes well, we'll be moving in about 6 weeks! (Yay for 3rd tri moving...lol)

GTKY: Do you collect anything? I don't know. Maybe mugs? I'm very picky about them, though. I do want to collect birdhouses and bird feeders for the yard but feel guilty about drawing them to our house more than they already are because we have 2 indoor/outdoor cats. But I'm an old lady at heart and love birds.

[randomosity]

babystandish yay for a haircut! And that's awesome you're donating it. I've always wanted to do that but chicken out over the amount of hair they need 🙈

stayingblonde glad you guys have (hopefully!) settled on a name! It definitely makes everything feel a little more real when you can name the baby, doesn't it?

Week/Fruit/EDD: 22w/Oct 3

FTM, Etc: TTM

Appointments: MFM and MW next week

Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): pink

Milestones: T-10 days to viability 🤷🏼‍♀️

Symptoms: ugh. Carpel tunnel has been awful the past week

Rants: see above. DS1 was sick over the weekend, and I’m really hoping that it’s something the rest of us already had. I’ve been sick twice this pregnancy and really am hoping to avoid another cold 👎🏻

NBR- our lawn still isn’t in. We moved in March 1st, and here we are 3 months later with no yard. Our builder has until the 30th per town requirements, but way to drag your feet. He doesn’t want us planting until they do it, either, which means my roses and lilies are dying 😪

Raves: I ordered garden beds to put my plants in finally. My builder can suck it 😂

GTKY: Do you collect anything? Christmas bears. Walmart has released special bears each Christmas for decades. I started getting them in 2010 and make a point to get one every year. This will be my 10th one 🙃

[babystandish]

randomosity I feel the same way when I refill our bird feeder. We have an indoor/outdoor cat.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 22/water bottle/Oct 7

FTM, Etc: 3

Appointments: June 20

Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): green

Milestones: finally announced so the world knows!

Symptoms: Nothing much?

Rants: I am ranting on myself for not drinking enough water. Also, the gnats are terrible and I can’t go outside.

Raves: Loving being back at prenatal yoga.

GTKY: Do you collect anything? Hallmark ornaments since birth-2006 when I officially moved out on my own (and now started the tradition for my kids from birth until they move out). Swarovski ornaments at Christmas time since 2007-present.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 23w 5d/ Grapefruit/ Sept 25

FTM, Etc: FTM

Appointments: Wednesday! Hope I get to see him again!

Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Blue

Milestones: 2 more days until viability!! 🙌🏻

Symptoms: Feeling full all the time, insomnia

Rants: Its so goddamn hot, summer is finally hitting us. I’m praying our AC unit lasts us the summer, it’s 30 years old and on its last leg

Raves: Our friends and family are so incredibly generous and we’ve already recurved many things from our registry. This little boy is already so loved and it makes me tear up a little when I think about it

GTKY: Do you collect anything? Animals 😂
But truly, I collect antique cast iron and I strip it of the old seasoning and reseason it and use it. It’s always awesome to find and use a pan that is almost 100 years old, it’s like a piece of history that you are taking part in. It’s pretty fun!

Week/Fruit/EDD: 20/paper airplane/oct 22

FTM, Etc: TTM

Appointments: Anatomy scan was Friday, midwife not until June 13

Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): green

Milestones: halfway!

Symptoms: my boobs hurt so much. I don’t know if it’s worse this time because I only recently weaned or what but it’s insane

Rants: not baby related but I want my house to sellllllllllll

Raves: feeling baby move and I still fit in my regular clothes (I will probably make the switch soon but with #3 I expected to need maternity clothes sooner)

GTKY: Do you collect anything? We collect a shot glass from places we travel. We don’t use them though... We also get Christmas ornaments from places we visit, I’m surprised how many people do the same!

Week/Fruit/EDD: 24 weeks+1d!/GI Joe/Sept 25

FTM, Etc: STM

Appointments: Had a check up this morning. Next one in 4 weeks.

Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): Blue

Milestones: V-day!!!

Symptoms: None really. I need to start remembering I am pregnancy and will have a baby in 3 months!

Rants: None really. Just really busy with life.

Raves: I can’t believe it’s June and baby will be here in like 3 months!

GTKY: Do you collect anything? Not really anymore. I am much more of a minimalist now but I used to do shot glasses and key chains.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 21+4, 10/14

FTM, Etc: TTM

Appointments: Had our level 2 ultrasound today, June 28

Team (pink, blue, green, finding out): pink

Milestones:

Symptoms: I stopped taking unisom/B6 after our AS, the nausea has come back with a vengeance.

Rants:

Raves: Had a rough week leading up to the level 2 scan, but the appointment today was really positive. They didn’t identify the pericardial effusion seen at my AS, and the EIF is less dense than bone, the tech at MFM said it wouldn’t have even gone on their report. The genetic counselor should be calling today to chat about my NIPT screen, just because it was male and the surviving twin is female, but I don’t think we’re going to pursue amniocentesis without any other red flags.

GTKY: Do you collect anything? We’re starting to get a bit of a record collection since I got DH a player for Christmas. I also love sentimental ornaments, but I wouldn’t call them a collection.

Great news aeroplaneoverthesea!
