How far along are you? 17+2
Size? An onion
Boy/Girl/Green? A boy!
Upcoming Appointments? I just had a checkup yesterday, it was a quick one but all was well! My A/S isn't until October 9th. I can't wait to see baby again!
Symptoms/concerns/milestones? I don't think my symptoms have changed much the past few months- still cramping, and headaches! Starting to get some tailbone pain too.
GTKY - What do you think you'll drink first when you can have your first real drink again? And if you don't drink alcohol, what's your go-to fave? Champagne or Prosecco!!! I cannot wait. I have had a few sips here and there but I can't wait until I can have a guilt free glass.

How far along are you? 24 weeks Size? GI Joe or cantaloupe Boy/Girl/Green? Girl Upcoming Appointments? Sept 27 OB appt and glucose screen Symptoms/concerns/milestones? My left hip has been killing me and causing numbness in my left leg. Also I'm starting to sleep on my hands again so I wake up with numb hands. GTKY - What do you think you'll drink first when you can have your first real drink again? And if you don't drink alcohol, what's your go-to fave? Right now I'm really craving a dark pumpkin beer but I'm sure that won't be around in January. I guess I'll follow tiffrobot's lead and say dark winter beer also. Maybe something with a little cherry in it. |

21 weeks 3 days
A large carrot?
Girl!
Regular check-up next week
Sciatic pain, usually worse by the end of the day. Nausea is pretty much gone, except for the occasional sudden onset where I have to run to the bathroom and dry heave. Blechk.
GTKY - Some sort of fancy cocktail from a restaurant. Nothing in particular, just one of those hard liquor mixed drinks with something unnecessary like elderberry flower or grapefruit essence.

Size? Banana
Boy/Girl/Green? Boy
Upcoming Appointments? Several weeks away
Symptoms/concerns/milestones? More movement, which is so nice! Also my abs have given up the fight... to me, my belly is really obvious now, but I guess I'm still in that too many cheeseburgers vs. pregnant phase, as no strangers have asked me anything yet!
GTKY - What do you think you'll drink first when you can have your first real drink again? And if you don't drink alcohol, what's your go-to fave? All the wine🍷 .

How far along are you? 21+5
Size? A weasel
Boy/girl/green? Still haven't gotten a definitive answer yet
Upcoming appointments? Weekly endo appointments, but no OB check until sept 29
Symptoms/concerns/milestones? Soooo much baby movement! Baby is a real dancer in there. Also the heartburn has begun, I'm asking for the prescription asap. Still no weight gain but the bump is getting bigger
GTKY- I think I'll probably do champagne. I like to think I'll have enough will power to stay away from the alcohol to lose the baby weight but dont hold me to that 😋

How far along are you? 16 weeks + 3 days
Size? A mango
Boy/Girl/Green? Finding out - Anatomy scan on 10/2
Upcoming Appointments? I have a regular OB appointment tomorrow with the doppler
Symptoms/concerns/milestones? Still nausea and puking (unfortunately). Some heartburn and random aches/pains starting. I am starting to think that I'm feeling small movements in the last day or two so that's exciting! I can't wait for them to get stronger and more frequent!
GTKY Probably a nice glass of wine! We signed up for a wine club the week before I got my BFP so H agreed to save the best bottle of our first shipment for after the baby came. And by then we'll have gotten a second shipment as well. So there will be much wine to be had.

How far along are you? 19w6d, half baked tomorrow!
Size? Hot Dog/Mango
Boy/Girl/Green? Girl
Upcoming Appointments? Anatomy scan tomorrow and OB Thursday
Symptoms/concerns/milestones? I don't expect any surprises tomorrow, but I will be happy to get the all clear from MFM about Faith. I've only gained 5 pounds so far about which since I'm overweight to begin with (obese by BMI standards) I don't think that is a real issue.
GTKY - What do you think you'll drink first when you can have your first real drink again? And if you don't drink alcohol, what's your go-to fave? I'm not a huge drinker at all, even at our all inclusive vacation in February I only had a few alcoholic drinks each day, mostly stuck with virgin daiquiris.

There is a huge difference between the size of a GI Joe (about 3 1/2 inches for most of these toys, I know since DH collects them) and a cantaloupe. lol |

I am usually a rum girl so I will be breaking out the Appleton Estate with ginger beer and lime. We also have some fancy Jameson. Oh, and I am due on my 30th birthday. Paaaar-taaaay!! Haha.

Miserable first tri symptoms are gone and I'm not yet big enough to be uncomfortable. It's the sweet spot!
GTKY - What do you think you'll drink first when you can have your first real drink again? And if you don't drink alcohol, what's your go-to fave?
i have the occasional glass of white or red wine. Looking forward to having more than one, preferably a few glasses of champagne.

How far along are you? 16 weeks
Size? Avocado
Boy/Girl/Green? Girl!
Upcoming Appointments? Checkup 22nd, AS October 4th
Symptoms/concerns/milestones? Still have morning sickness, and starting to get tailbone pain when I sit for over 45 minutes. I also had a small amount of pink spotting this morning which has me officially freaked out. I'm just going to watch it right now, and if I have more I'll call the doctor. I know I felt her moving last night so trying to reassure myself.
GTKY - What do you think you'll drink first when you can have your first real drink again? And if you don't drink alcohol, what's your go-to fave? Not a big drinker, don't like the taste of alcohol. If I drink, I usually get a midori sour since they don't taste like alcohol.

I am 23 weeks today
Baby is the size of a papaya or 8inch 1.2lbs
It's a baby boy
I have an appointment in October but for the life of me I can't remember when at the moment
I am very tired and I have insane pain in my crotch.
I only have 15 weeks left and that's crazy and exciting.
I don't drink. I just don't like it. The one thing I am hoping will go back to normal after baby is born is being able to drink coffee with milk. I miss my iced coffees but the thought of it makes me nauseous.

tiffbabey sorry about the spotting. I will say that my last bit of spotting was at about 15 1/2 weeks and everything is fine. It could be nothing so try and relax a little. I hope it stops for you.

Boy/Girl/Green? Boy!!! I'm still in disbelief but so happy to have 2 little boys!
Upcoming Appointments? 9/29

GTKY - What do you think you'll drink first when you can have your first real drink again? And if you don't drink alcohol, what's your go-to fave? Ooooh. Ok so there's this place in New Haven (where we used to live in CT) called Geronimo's that made blood orange margaritas with jalapeño infused tequila. They were AMAZING. I'd love one of those but I'll settle for a good regular margarita.

How far along? 20w3d Size? No idea. Boy/Girl/Green? Girl Appts? A/S was today at MFM. Baby was very cooperative and pretty chill. All went well. Concerns? I should say none after my good scan but that would be too normal of me! I have an anterior placenta again which explains the somewhat muted movement. My BHs have kicked up a bit and will continue all the way through. I was concerned about my cervical length but I think that's going to be ok thanks to our board scientist peachesncreamDrink? Wine. A really, really good red. Fall/Winter are my favorite drinking seasons. I will start to have some small, carefully measured wine soon on occasion. It helps with the craving but it is not the same! |
