Weeks Pregnant: 10+1


Baby is the Size of a: Fortune cookie


FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: TTM


Team: Green, although MH keeps saying he wants to find out this time so now I'm on the fence


Appointments: Nothing until 10/12 with a midwife


How are you feeling? Pretty good as long as I consistently snack throughout the day. Very tired.


Rants/raves? My spotting seems to have finally stopped altogether!


GTKY - Lets hear about your families! Older sibling(s), pets, etc.: So there's myself and MH. We started dating in 2007 and got married in 2012. Boy (G) and girl (L) born June 2016, so they'll be nearly 5 when #3 arrives. We have a 9 yo boxer and are newly fostering a 7 yo chocolate lab for our good friend who joined the Army.

Weeks Pregnant: 12 weeks!


Baby is the Size of a: Toy Soldier


FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: TTM


Team: Find out! Appointment is next Tuesday and will find out ~10 days after that!


Appointments: Next Tuesday for NT scan and bloodwork


How are you feeling? Better! I had some decent nausea that has finally subsided. Feeling a little cooped up working at home and not getting out of the house a ton.


Rants/raves? I am feeling content about this being my last pregnancy. I didn't feel that way after my last so I am excited for this baby and to complete our family.


GTKY - Lets hear about your families! Older sibling(s), pets, etc. Met DH in 2003 in college. Married in 2008. DS in 2013 and DD in 2018. I was not happy about the age gap between DS and DD at first (it took us a long time to get pregnant with DD) but it is so nice having him be so independent and will really be great now with a third on the way!

Weeks Pregnant: 13&5


Baby is the Size of a: lemon I think?


FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: STM


Team: finding out tomorrow hopefully!


Appointments: 10/1 for a routine appointment, they should be getting the results of my genetic testing tomorrow, they told me to call and ask for them. SO nervous.


How are you feeling? Overall pretty good, I am really emotional today. The nonstop pukey feeling isn't totally gone but it's MUCH better. I'm getting heart burn here and there.


Rants/raves? Nothing much just super anxious for our test results to be normal and finding out the sex. I feel like that's the last hurdle for this to feel real and be excited and able to tell people.


GTKY - Lets hear about your families! Older sibling(s), pets, etc. I have a 19 month old son and 2 miniature dachshunds that are getting pretty old now. I also have a pretty cool husband <3

Weeks Pregnant: 8+4

Baby is the Size of a: raspberry

FTM/STM/TTM/etc. STM

Team: Either, will find out

Appointments: First appointment was today and all was well, except for the big ass cyst. 😆Next one Oct. 23 with an ultrasound, so I’m thankful for the cyst since otherwise I would only get to see the little guy twice!

How are you feeling? Nausea like woah, and so so sleepy.

Rants/raves- Nothing really. Today was a good day.

GTKY - My H and I have been married 2 years, together for 4. We met shortly after he moved to the US from New Zealand. This will be his first baby but he is an amazing stepdad to my almost 9 year old DS. They are both over the moon about the baby. ❤️I can’t wait to see H with a newborn, and S as a big brother.

We have two black lab mixes, Jack and Archie, and two cats, Minnie and Luna.

May DD jumping in....

Weeks Pregnant: 5ish?


Baby is the Size of a: BB pellet/peppercorn


FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: TTM


Team: Green


Appointments: Wednesday will be my first Dr appt, since I forgot to phone after getting a BFP. Hoping I can get an US soon and figure out how far I actually am.


How are you feeling? Pretty good here. Drinking my daily afternoon tea because this seems to be the time I get nauseous. That and when I’m around raw meat.


Rants/raves? So weird symptom that I had with my other two - I get a lump in my throat when I swallow occasionally. Any idea what it could be? My only guess would be some weird kind of acid reflux?

GTKY -
H and I have been together for 10 years, married for 6 (on Sunday). We have an almost 5yo son and 2.5yo daughter. Plus a dog named Hugo.

Weeks Pregnant: 11+3

Baby is the Size of a: Brussels sprout

FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: 4th

Team: finding out

Appointments: 12 week appt on Sept 28th!

How are you feeling? Nausea at night- like every day at 5pm a switch flips and I feel awful. And I’m so bloated still, so I caved and got some maternity leggings that are A+ right now, even if I just look lumpy instead of bumpy.

Rants/raves? Just anxiously waiting for the NIPT results and hopefully hearing the heartbeat again next week. And my dreams have been so out of control weird lately, they’re hard to shake.

GTKY - Lets hear about your families! Older sibling(s), pets, etc.
H and I have been together since ‘08 (married in 2013), and we have a 10ish yr old mini poodle who’s gotten pretty deaf over the last year. And I guess we have a yard cat now? He’s been a hanging out there for 2.5 weeks. DS(6) and DD1(4.5) are awesome with DD2(almost 10 mos), so I’m hoping things will go smoothly when this baby arrives. We haven’t even told the big kids yet 😬, they’d tell everyone and I’m not ready.

Rants/raves? The smoke is [mostly] gone! It got moderately icky today, but we've been clear last weekend and should blow off with the rain this week. I'm excited for the temp drop and rain. 🤩
GTKY: Lets hear about your families! Older sibling(s), pets, etc. This kiddo has 5 older siblings (4 lost, 1 live) and 1 kitty that has no idea what's about to happen. 😂 L is super excited for her baby sibling (she says it's sister or brother randomly, but largely sister).

EDIT: My brain is apparently unable to put context into words. 😂 H and I have been together since Dec 2003, married since Sept 2013. We just celebrated 7 years on the 9th!

GTKY - Lets hear about your families! Older sibling(s), pets, etc.

Most of y’all know about me. I’m first generation Mexican. Parents immigrated from Mexico. We’ve been in Los Angeles ever since.
There’s 4 of us siblings and parents still together. My dad recently retired last Friday actually.
Me. I married a gringo. Wasn’t intending to, but he’s really great. He’s an amazing husband. Hard worker. Kind. I love him so much. He’s my dude. Mu daughter is 5. My dog is 14. Got him in Tijuana and all he does is sleep all day. Get a job!

[sundog]

miawallace I’m laughing at your last sentence about your dog because mine sleeps all day too and he needs to contribute more around the house, dangit! He is a good roomba when the kids drop food though

Baby is the Size of a: cherry


FTM/STM/TTM/etc.: 3rd


Team: finding out


Appointments: Monday


How are you feeling? Terrible. Nauseous all the time and vomiting multiple times a day. Just started on Zofran today. I’m hoping it gets better soon! Nurse said I may need to get iv fluids if it doesn’t get better soon.


Rants/raves? Mostly how I’m feeling. It is making life hard and my doctor/nurses aren’t super helpful so that’s frustrating.

H and I are HS sweethearts married ‘12. We had IF before DD and loss in ‘16. DD ‘17 and DS ‘19.

This is what my doctor told me to do too and it’s helping!

[pbandj714]

Sorry you're feeling so awful snickerdoodle. I hope it subsides soon!

Team: Green

Rants/raves?


GTKY - Lets hear about your families! Older sibling(s), pets, etc. H and I have been married for 5 years. We have one DD who will turn 3 in about 6 weeks. She happens to have Down syndrome and had a pretty difficult start after birth (She’s doing awesome now though). We’re hopeful this pregnancy and birth is A LOT more boring this time around. We also have our mutt, Bear, who’s 7 years old and dumb as a box of rocks.
