I'm 15 weeks along with my 2nd. I have a 4-year-old daughter who is very excited to be a big sister. I have an appointment at the end of the month. Overall, I'm feeling better now that I'm done with the first tri. I still have my moments though.
I'm hoping more of us come out to play! I'd love someone due in January/February, since I'm probably much farther along than the rest of you.

I'm 4 weeks today. My boobs are on fire and I'm crampy off and on and coffee is gross but otherwise I feel fine because it's so early.
I have 2 girls already, a 4 and 2 year old. We haven't told them because they'd tell the world. Although both of them have told me I have a baby in my belly this week, so maybe they do know, haha. I so badly want to tell my mom but we'll wait. We normally tell our parents once we see the heartbeat, but my first appointment isn't until 11 weeks and I don't know that I'll make all of first tri without telling her.

linny, I told people as I see them, but my family does not live close so it was easier for me to do that than we if we all them all the time. I wouldn't hesitate to tell someone that I would also tell if I had a loss. I waited a bit longer to tell people this time than my first just because I told people early last time and it made my pregnancy last FOREVER.

I’m out... best of luck to you all with your pregnancies! There was no heartbeat found last week at my dating ultrasound.

Hi all! I’ve check in a few times on the Jan/Feb thread but saw no activity. Thought I’d try again and saw this. I’m due 1/23 with my third, so I’m 18 weeks as of yesterday.
A bit of background - we’ve done IVF for all 3 kids, and this is my third rainbow baby (I’ve had a loss each time before a successful pregnancy - at least I’m consistent right 🤷🏻♀️). We had a rough go at the beginning this time because I did a fresh transfer and put in two embryos and found out after only one was normal but both implanted. However, only one developed and we found out at 12 weeks that this one was the healthy one!! (Luckily they were opposite sex so easy to tell based on sex alone). As a result I’ve been super anxious this pregnancy and only really have just begun to tell people.
I have two DSs - a 4 year old and almost 18 month old. This time we are team pink 💖💖💖

Hello! I just got my BFP but I've had my suspicions for the past week.
I had 2 first tri losses about 4 years ago and then has DS last June. H and I have been TFAS since March. I had a chemical pregnancy last month so I'm a little shocked and a little nervous but I'm sure it will be okay.
I have high risk pregnancies due to my tendency towards losses so I'm going to start taking aspirin and heparin shots this week as per the high risk doctor who follows me. I also had cholestasis with DS so I'm hoping I don't get it again but know to watch for the warning signs.
EDD is April 28 (my dad's birthday!)

linny thanks. I know the May/June18 board wound up pretty dead after a while. Just some heartburn and exhaustion so far 😁 I have an appointment with my family doctor in 2 weeks for something else already anyways so I'll probably get a prescription for diclectin while I'm there, for just in case.

I somehow gained like 6lbs of bloat this week. WTF. I've been drawn to carbs but I didn't expect that much of an impact. Here's to focusing on better choices this week.

Meanwhile I'm thus far all about the veggies lol. It'll be interesting to see if my potato addiction from my pregnancy with DS comes back. |

Meanwhile I'm thus far all about the veggies lol. It'll be interesting to see if my potato addiction from my pregnancy with DS comes back. I'm loving fruit in addition to carbs. I was watching what I was eating before getting pregnant so fruit and all the breads, rice, crackers, etc were somewhat limited. I think my body just doesn't know what to do with all this sugar all the sudden.
Meat is grossing me out or doesn't taste "normal" lately. But for the most part my nausea/morning sickness/food aversion is relatively mild compared to past pregnancies.

I just spent the last 2 hours on my hands and knees scrubbing my kitchen floor lol I'm wanting to go through all the closets and purge clothes, pack up summer and pull out fall stuff, and reorganize toys. I won't attemp with the girls home because they're so "helpful." I get like this at every season change though. |

I won't attemp with the girls home because they're so "helpful." I get like this at every season change though. I started tackling the toys and reorganizating the playroom. I kept looking around and it was driving me nuts. I have quite a pile set aside for MIL to put in her garage sale. It's not finished because my hips are done with sitting on the floor, but it's a very good start and i love how I moved the shelving and big toys around. H wants me to draw up some plans for shelving in closet for toys. I'll work on that soon. |

He makes such a huge mess with them sometimes even though he really doesn't have many lol. |
