Week/Fruit/EDD: 20+3, 11/1

FTM, Etc: 2nd

Appointments: Thursday. Anatomy scan

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

Milestones: Feeling small movements!

Symptoms: Holy sacroiliac joint pain. Numb right thigh.

Rants: Makena shots, hormones f-ing with my brain

Raves: movements! DS and H this time around being so sweet about babies.

GTKY: So far, natural. I always wanted jewel tones for fun or to try being a red head, but I always get compliments on the health and softness of my hair when I get it cut and never have gone through with it. Plus money.

However, although I like natural silver hair and I am apparently blessed with white and not yellow, I did find the first of my real silvers and now I’m wondering if I go white in my thirties whether I’ll let it be or not.

Week/Fruit/EDD:25w3d/eggplant?/9.27

FTM, Etc: 4th

Appointments: Thursday.

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

Milestones: 2 weeks til 3rd trimester!

Symptoms: Indigestion, tired, thirsty and peeing all the time, and swelling now if I walk a bunch and don't drink enough water.

Rants: Just realized that from now until September, I'll have to cart my older 3 to all of my OB appointments. I guess it won't be that bad but sometimes the wait times are a little lengthy so trying to keep them all chill may get interesting.

Raves: All seems well.

GTKY: Do you dye your hair or keep it natural?
I've colored it before and had lowlights before but currently, it's natural, which is an Auburn color (and used to be a lot more red pre-kids!). I have noticed some white hairs coming in here and there so once that becomes noticeable, I'm sure I'll color it regularly.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 23w / bunch of grapes / Oct 14

FTM, Etc: STM

Appointments: Tomorrow

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

Milestones: 1 week to viability

Symptoms: Peeing, woke up with major vertigo again today...worried it might be low BP. Glad I'm going in tomorrow to get it checked.

Rants: I've been sick for 6 days and I can't take anything. I'm exhausted and sick and just want to sit in a dark room all alone.

Raves: The baby is moving so much and I love it! It's my favorite part of pregnancy.

GTKY: Do you dye your hair or keep it natural? I've been bleaching my hair platinum blonde for over 10 years. (Hence my profile pic/name...LOL)

Week/Fruit/EDD: 24w1d / package of Oreos / Oct 5

FTM, Etc: 2TM

Appointments: Bonus appointment next Thursday before our big trip

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

Milestones: Viability, whoop

Symptoms: Same old gag reflex. RLP is worse but only when running or power walking or baby wearing my toddler and doing some decent walking.

Rants: The RLP is annoying. Support belt isn't helping. I would try kinesio tape but my skin doesn't do well with any kind of tape.

Raves: Looking like this pregnancy is going the route of the first which was better than textbook. I would be thrilled. Passed my GTT.

GTKY: Do you dye your hair or keep it natural? Natural. I did highlights from high school through a few years into college. I'm getting more and more white hairs though (started around 30) and one temple has grown back almost completely white after my post partum hair loss so I'm tempted to color it. But I've gone curly and it's not as easy to maintain color.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 25w 5d/ Lettuce/ Sept 25

FTM, Etc: FTM

Appointments: July 5

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

Milestones: You can now see my belly move as he moves! My husband even got to see it wiggle and warp

Symptoms: Round ligament pain, sciatic pain, HUNGRY

Rants: Nothing in particular

Raves: Got to see my little guy, our cardiologist was in and and took a peek with his ultrasound. It’s interesting to see him this far along. It makes sense why they don’t do more late ultrasounds, he’s getting so big in there you can’t really distinguish too much at this point. He did say right when he got his probe down “there’s his wiener!” 😂
Boy confirmed I guess?

GTKY: Do you dye your hair or keep it natural?
I keep mine natural, I had fun dying it when I was in high school all kinds of colors like purple and blue, I got it out of my system. Now it’s just easier to leave it alone and I actually like my natural blonde.

[roseinbloom]

Sounds rough, stayingblonde. Hope the vertigo passes quickly and with nothing else attached

Week/Fruit/EDD: 24w2d, Oct 6

FTM, Etc: 3tm

Appointments: ob appointment today

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

Milestones: viability! More movement

Symptoms: so tired and emotional. Left hand started hurting yesterday like carpal tunnel and is swollen today

Rants: ugh, I let myself get dehydrated and forgot to take my blood pressure medicine, so now I wake up with a swollen left hand and am all worried about preeclampsia. Thankfully I have an appointment today. Also baby's head circumference went from 22 percent to 13 percent from my anatomy scan to my 24 week grown scan, so I plan to ask about that. I am the worst and should not let myself look at ultrasound stats.

Raves: movement is very reassuring even though she's kicking my bladder and I have to pee.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 28w2d, coconut, 9/8

FTM, Etc: 2TM

Appointments: MW appt Wednesday then growth scan with MFM Thursday

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

Milestones: Third tri!

Symptoms: Same as usual.. terrible heartburn, hip pain when I sleep, peeing a lot

Rants: Still feel like there's 1000 things to do and no time to do it.

Raves: MRI results were insignificant which is a good thing. They agreed there seems to be some shadowing but they did not call it a mass. They'll evaluate baby after she's born. Also results from the amnio are slowly coming in and everything is normal so far. I hope we can get through the last couple months without anymore stress. FX that the growth scan comes back ok!

GTKY: Do you dye your hair or keep it natural? My natural hair is about 95% grey at this point so I have to dye it. Pregnancy is making my hair grow even more so my usual 6 weeks isn't lasting.

[goldenlove]

I'm so jealous of you ladies that are just now getting greys. I started getting them early college and was mostly grey by 30.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 24/Atlantic puffin/Oct 7

FTM, Etc: 3

Appointments: this Thursday

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

Milestones: Viability!

Symptoms: Nothing crazy—I usually have pretty bad heartburn by now but haven’t yet...maybe that means my kid has no hair?

Rants: I wish I could control my midnight eating habits.

Raves: Happy to have another appt soon—4 weeks is too long for me.

GTKY: Do you dye your hair or keep it natural? I was a natural blonde until about 16 and then it started getting mousy so I started highlighting in and never stopped, and now 18 years later, it’s pretty dark at the roots and I recently switched to baylage with the top dyed a slightly warmer dark brown and then it gradiates to blonde. I miss being all blonde but it’s definitely lower maintenance.

[marshian]

goldenlove - Sounds like some good results so far. Hopefully all continues to look positive.

Week/Fruit/EDD: Oct 3/ 24w+

FTM, Etc: TTM

Appointments: MW and MFM w/ growth scan in 3 weeks

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

Milestones: viability

Symptoms: ugh. All of it

Rants: I’m so miserable. Knowing that we’re going to be inducing before my EDD doesn’t help much more than giving me a “it will all be over by this date” type of thing

Raves: she was measuring right on track at last weeks growth scan, except for her giant ass head. That measured two weeks ahead 😬😬

GTKY: Do you dye your hair or keep it natural? It’s mostly natural... I have that mousy/sandy blonde hair, and for the longest time, I dyed it. First, I did brown and then eventually settled into blonde. Every so often, I got the itch to change, so I’d go dark brown for a while then bleach it back. February of 2018, I decided I had enough with dealing with dying it and getting frustrated with my roots that I just left it go. Now, only the bottom 3ish inches show any variation from the rest of my head, and even that looks pretty blended in.

Week/Fruit/EDD: 22/corn on the cob/oct 22

FTM, Etc: TTM

Appointments: not until July

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

Milestones: hiccups apparently

Symptoms: nothing new!

Rants: nothing fits. My maternity clothes is too big but my regular clothes is a bit uncomfortable

Raves: loving all the movement

GTKY: Do you dye your hair or keep it natural? It’s been natural for a while now. I did highlights in jr high then started dying it dark in high school. Balayage for a while, but I’m settled back on natural for maintenance purposes. I have naturally curly hair that’s kinda a medium brown. I have more greys popping up so I might start colouring soon

Week/Fruit/EDD: 26 weeks/bowing pin/Sept 25

FTM, Etc: STM+

Appointments: July 5 for 28 week/rhogam/GTT

Symptoms: Puked this morning (and most mornings) while brushing my teeth 🤷🏻‍♀️

Raves: Almost 3rd tri!

GTKY: I use to have it highlighted but who has the time, energy, and money for hair maintenance! Now it’s just natural!

[aeroplaneoverthesea]

Week/Fruit/EDD: 23+/Oct 14

FTM, Etc: TTM

Appointments: next Friday

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

Milestones: getting close to viability

Symptoms: I’ve been having insane dreams the past few weeks. I’m not sure if it’s the hormones or the 1/2 unisom I still have to take before bed, but they are crazy.

Rants: I feel old and tired this pregnancy. My knee is not really allowing for much jogging anymore so I’ve switched to walking and using the stationary bike.

Raves: DH scheduled his vasectomy for November!

GTKY: Do you dye your hair or keep it natural? I get my hair trimmed pretty religiously every 8-9 weeks. I used to keep it much blonder and get highlights every visit, but now I just do the ends every 3rd visit.

[cmb]

aeroplaneoverthesea I hear you on feeling old and tired this time around. This way is way worse than my other two 😪

And I’m assuming your rave has a typo... DH has his consult in two weeks, and I CANNOT WAIT! We’re hoping we can get on the books for mid-August. Otherwise, we’ll have to wait until November.

He’s already been warned that there will be no touching until it’s done once DD is here. I’m not going back on BC, and hell no to anymore kids

Oh man, pregnancy brain is real. Yes, this is it for us. 1000%. Need to take advantage of our deductible being met too, so I was like you best get it in before the end of the year.
