When is your due date? How far along are you? Unconfirmed due date is July 18. Five weeks, five days.
How big is baby? Chocolate chip!
Any upcoming appointments? December 21 is my first appointment.
Any new symptoms or changes? Bloating. Pain on my left side. I’ve been horribly constipated, so my guess is gas pains. Wishing the Colace would work already.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Not at the moment.
GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving food? Canned cranberry sauce and pumpkin pie. You can’t ask a pregnant lady to pick one. Can’t do it.

is your due date? How far along are you? Based on my regular cycle and when we DTD, estimated due date is 7/20. My OB office will base it off a 28 day cycle unless the dating u/s is more than 4 days off, so may officially be EDD of 7/17. Six weeks tomorrow!
How big is baby? pomegranate seed
Any upcoming appointments? Dating u/s on 12/7
Any new symptoms or changes? Super emotional the last week. But the excessive sweating I have had for almost 3 years (since I became pregnant with DS through 2yrs nursing) has finally stopped, so I'm guessing this one is a girl! I'm have a lot of energy and feel good like I did pregnant with DD five years ago.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Anyone who already has 3+ have any recommendations for a small SUV with 3rd row seating? Our garage is length challenged so we need something under 200".
GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving Food? Does gravy count? It's the best with turkey drippings that you just can't duplicate without cooking a whole turkey!

tarheelmom I have a 2015 ford explorer and I love it. Mine has the bucket seats (instead of bench) so it seats 6. It's roomy but its not huge and doesn't feel like I'm driving a tank.

tarheelmom I test drove a Ford Explorer. I’m in full agreement with notmoose. I didn’t get it because poor and the Edge was in my price range (loooooove my Edge). Also, my sister has an older Tahoe. Super roomy, that thing is. No idea how long it is, but figured I’d throw that out there.

Super roomy, that thing is. No idea how long it is, but figured I’d throw that out there. That reminds me. We also had an older chevy trailblazer (seats 7) and it wasn't bad. It felt a bit more bulky than my explorer, but it was still fine and was roomy. Also, tarheelmom I drove a Buick enclave and hated it. That was my dream SUV until I actually drove one. |

I’ll go ahead and jump in here! Just got a BFP today!
When is your due date? How far along are you?
Somewhere between 7/28 (LMP) and 8/5 (probable ovulation based on basically nothing)
How big is baby? A poppy seed
Any upcoming appointments? First appointment will be 12/14
Any new symptoms or changes? Nothing. I tested on a whim because I had a digital test that was about to expire. We were trying, but I’ve been with an RE since June and we were taking a break until the beginning of the year, so I had zero expectations.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? This baby will continue the baby train in my family. My grandmother has gotten at least one great grandchild since 2013! I’ve got #10 cooking right now. This baby will also be the 7th great-great grandchild for my great grandmother.

Any new symptoms or changes? Like with my first pregnancy, I feel nauseated 24/7. Keeping more food down this go round, but I've felt pretty miserable. Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? Found out by accident that my sister is pregnant with her first and is due around the same time. She's not planning to announce until December. She doesn't know that I know. Do I still announce to immediate family tomorrow like originally planned? GTKY: What is your favorite Thanksgiving Food? Dressing...wish I could enjoy this year.

hemar2015 my cousin was pregnant the same time as me last time. It was her second and my first so she didn’t announce until I had had ‘my thunder’. It was very sweet. But personally, I can’t keep a secret so it would be hard to not tell family.

So I just happened to find out that my OB who delivered DD (but was out of network earlier this year when I went to get my IUD taken out) is back in network.
I'm not sure what to do - the practice I switched to will for sure be in network whatever my work insurance situation is in 2018, but I'm worried that I'll switch to my old OB, and then have to switch back. But I really loved my old OB in delivery last time.

Will call on Monday and hope they have appointments available before Christmas. |
