GTKY - What are you most excited about this fall? I'm excited for the mosquitoes to be gone. I know it's pretty but that honestly the thing I'm looking forward to. A guy we know (my age) who contracted West Nile this summer and is now in a wheelchair and going through rehab. I f'ing hate mosquitoes.

Starting to get regular heartburn. Occasionally see my belly move with the odd kick, if I'm laying the right way when it happens.

GTKY - What are you most excited about this fall?
DS starts preschool at the end of the month and he loves it, so excited to start getting him ready for that. Kind of just preparing for baby in general! Switching the kids rooms and stuff around, etc.

[marygracerich]

I am 22 weeks today.
Baby is the size of a spaghetti squash and 1lb already!
It's a boy!
I have my monthly appointment tomorrow. She will do an ultrasound and probably say I have gained too much weight.
Baby is moving a lot more which is nice. I am feeling ok most days which is an amazing change. I am still sensitive to smells but it's manageable.
I love fall so much. I have already had some pumpkin pie. I also love the smell of cinnamon and the cozy weather. 😊

Heartburn is starting, still a bit nauseous. I've never had heartburn before so the first time I had a bit of "what is happening to me?" lol


GTKY - What are you most excited about this fall?
So many things! Love the cooler weather, things slow down a bit at work, there's an amazing food festival I participate in in a couple weeks, Thanksgiving is coming up (early October for the Canadians)

[dragonflyinn]

How far along are you? 21w2d

Size? Baby bok choy!

Boy/Girl/Green? Found out last week it's a BOY! 💙

Upcoming Appointments? I had my 20w appointment today (a week late lol). Everything looked good from my anatomy scan. She said he is measuring a little big but they also said that about my peanut DD so I am not really taking stock in that. My next appt is in 3 weeks bc this one was a week late so I'm excited about that!

Symptoms/concerns/milestones? still exhausted. Baby boy moves a TON, thankfully right now mid-morning & early evening are his favorite times, unlike DD who insisted on dancing ALL NIGHT LONG.

GTKY - What are you most excited about this fall? Pumpkin everything!!! Not decor but the flavor lol. I've had a PSL every day this week 🙊🙊🙊

[smores]

How far along are you? 15 weeks + 4 days

Size? Pear or Hass Avocado

Boy/Girl/Green? Not sure yet. Will be scheduling my A/S for the first week in October... speaking of, I need to call and do that!

Upcoming Appointments? A check up/doppler appointment in a week.

Symptoms/concerns/milestones? I'm definitely feeling more comfortable talking about the baby in "when" terms rather than in "if" terms. I feel like after my appointment next week I might FINALLY start feeling fully comfortable telling people, but who knows? Still have nausea/puking and am starting to get heartburn. I'm excited for my bump to show up and to start feeling movement in a couple/few weeks!

GTKY We don't really get much of a fall here, but I am excited for the weather to get a bit crisper and for Thanksgiving

[hedwig]

How far along are you? 17 weeks 5 days

Size? Pomegranate, almost artichoke

Boy/Girl/Green? Unknown right now. We'll find out at the AS

Upcoming Appointments? AS scheduled for 9/21

Symptoms/concerns/milestones? I've been feeling the baby move a lot. I've also felt it from the outside, which seems really early to me, but my midwife wasn't surprised.

GTKY - What are you most excited about this fall? Like everyone else, I love fall. I'm a big college football fan and the crisp air always reminds me of tailgating. We are hoping to go to one Mizzou game this fall.

[teraiin]

How far along are you? 21w in about 30 mins lol

Size?

Boy/Girl/Green? Boys!

Upcoming Appointments? Flu shot/check up on the 15th. Another scan on the 25th.

Symptoms/concerns/milestones? Same old same old. My anatomy scan went well. Boys are measuring 13oz and 12oz so the doctor was pleased. We were a little surprised that they were boys. They had had all the "old wives tales" for girls. 🤷🏻‍♀️

GTKY - What are you most excited about this fall? One season closer to babies? 😂

dill pickle!
Not sure yet, we find out 9/25.
A/S on 9/25 and ob check up 9/27.
I was really nauseous all day yday which was pretty awful. This pregnancy is very different from DD so I will be surprised if it's not a boy!

[stephne]

How far along are you? 18w3d

Size? sweet potato

Boy/Girl/Green? BOY

Upcoming Appointments? Sept. 25th

Symptoms/concerns/milestones? My pelvis is killing me already. My bones feel bruised and ache when I walk too much or am on my feet.

[girlonabike]

How far along are you? 17w 5d

Size? dunno. my app is lame and doesn't do size comparisons.

Boy/Girl/Green? girl

Upcoming Appointments? Anatomy scan on the 18th

Symptoms/concerns/milestones? Finally gave in and requested a prescription for diclegis. I can't take the nausea and vomiting anymore. So far, so good. I will feel much more confident about this pregnancy once the anatomy scan is done and clear.

GTKY - What are you most excited about this fall? Everything. This is my favorite season.
