I'm 13w 5d and still no bump, just fat. The good news is that I've lost about 5 pounds since my BFP (I'm overweight so no danger to baby).
Last week was my first OB appointment after being released from the RE. Baby is starting to look like a baby instead of a blob. We say his/her arms and legs moving around and turning from side to side a few times. HB was 171 and OB said everything looks good!
We decided to do an elective 3D ultrasound at 15 weeks to determine the gender since our Panorama results came back as "no result". My parents, my in laws and my sister and her husband are coming with us so we will all find out together.
Since I don't have a bump picture, here is the latest ultrasound image of our little squish.

I am 14 weeks & 3 days, woo hoo second trimester. I had an OB appointment yesterday we saw the babies real quick, one was sleeping and the other was moving all over the place. I am getting a 16 week anatomy scan and a 20 week scan, so I will get to see them more soon. Last Thursday we got the results of the NIPT and everything came back negative, so hopefully one step closer to this being real. We also found out we are having two girls! I'm so happy this first step of screenings came back good. Sorry no bump or u/s pics today. I am still lurking and rooting for you all.

Hi all! I'm 24 weeks this week. We're currently camping in a cabin. We go home tomorrow night and then I have appointments Thurs and Fri. I have Physical Therapy, an u/s, and midwife appointment. DD2 slept through the last u/s. I'm hoping they can confirm for a second time she is in fact a girl.
I'm 12w2d today. We had a small bleeding scare from my SCH on Sunday, but after a scan, all looks well. Got to see the little peanut kicking around. Heart rate was 175. We have our NT this Thursday and hopefully will announce to our families shortly after that.
Too many cute babies and mamas in this thread already!
AFM, 30w5d. Bump is large and in charge. Kid's got her head smushed up in my ribs half the time, and she likes to put her feet at the rear-bottom of my ute and stretch herself out full length, pushing her head out the front of my stomach. At least she's not stomping on my bladder or cervix when she does that.
Slowly coming to terms with my GD diagnosis. Had a consult with a diabetic nurse and nutritionist, got my glucometer. And then ran out of test strips because the doctor's office forgot to send my prescription in to the pharmacy. Whomp whomp. So I got 2.5 days of testing in, now I'm waiting for the paperwork to catch up. In general, it looks like my fasting numbers are good, so probably won't need medication. My body definitely does not handle carbs well in the morning, when hormones are highest. So really, the only difference for me is some changes to diet and the fact that my OB wants me to deliver sometime between 39 and 40 weeks - she won't let me go past 40, for sure.
Other than all that, I'm actually feeling pretty good. Not nearly as much fatigue or pain going on. The weather has been staying on the cooler side so far this summer, so that's been nice.

13w5d over here. Nothing super exciting except that I can finally feel Gummy Bear wiggling around Nothing consistent at this point and I have to be laying down and relaxed but still.
No bump pics and no ultrasounds. Have an appointment today so I may update later.

Hi GKU!
I'm 19 weeks with twins. We had our anatomy scan on Friday and found out that we are expecting a boy and a girl. It was so exciting! Baby boy is very active and wiggling all around. Baby girl was a little more shy and they weren't able to get all her measurements, despite trying like hell to wake her up. (Basically pounding on my stomach. Good times. Haha)
I'm always lurking around for more BFPs! Xoxo
Oh, and we announced the pregnancy on social media, finally. It was really wonderful to finally tell the world.
I'm 34 weeks and struggling with breathing, eating, not being a total bitch, and the heat. So, instead of talking about myself, I'll just AW my alphabet project in the nursery.
EDIT: Each letter is a character, author, book, or fictional place from children's literature.
AFM this is my last check in with an inside baby!!!!!! Lol
I will be 40 weeks on Thursday and because j am still only 1cm and long, with baby not yet engaged my OB has scheduled an induction for Monday (unless I miraculously go before then).
DH is OOT until Thursday, after which I will be doing all the non-scientific-y things to get him out lol but is nice to know at the latest I will have an outside baby in a week!
Until then just going to try and enjoy some quiet time with the doggies and one last weekend with just DH and my two step sons, maybe a BBQ with friends Friday since things will likely be hectic for a couple weeks once he gets here.
Also - finally got a pic with my BFF! She is due in 4 weeks!
Hard to believe my pregnancy journey is almost over. I'm a little sad, but excited to meet my boy.
Nothing new to report. I'm 24 weeks and change and still have a looooong ways to go. My body is really feeling it this week. Next appt in August for a checkup and GTT. Always lurking and crossing all the things for more BFPs.
DS turned three months old on Sunday! He is 23.5 inches long and weighs about 14 lbs. We have had great success with breastfeeding, and I just love it. He loves to smile and coo! He is sleeping longer and longer stretches, sometimes as much as 8 hours! He is becoming skilled at holding things and lifting them to his mouth. He has been rolling from tummy to back, and is now making attempts to roll from back to belly (though for now he can only roll to his side).

Hey GKU! It's been a while, but M turned 5 months yesterday!! We had some medical issues a while back so I've been pretty quiet. Had the worst night of my life when I had to call 911 and be taken in the ambulance because she was having trouble breathing. After a stay at two different hospitals and two throat scope surgeries, we have answers and are on medication until she's at least 1 year old. She loves taking it, but the specific times mess with our schedule.
She's always smiling, rolls all over and loves to talk. Doesn't sleep much, so that's our current project before I go back to work when school starts in August. Oh, and she's finally on the weight charts at 5%!

Hey guys! DS turned two months old last Wednesday. Time is going by so fast. I'm still a little worried about his slow weight gain but we will see what the doctor says on Thursday when he gets his shots.
I'll participate today! I'm 20 weeks +4. A/S today baby was butt up and using my bladder as a pillow so they couldn't get all the measurements they needed! Here's a pic, PDQ.

jubilantsquirrel I'm sore from walking everywhere with H yesterday trying to catch Pokemon so no judgement here. I even let DS catch a few even though he wastes my pokeballs. H caught an Eevee on Evie and thought he was clever.
The girls will be 4 weeks tomorrow and are finally more interested in eating than sleeping so we are a bit more tired. I go back to work Aug 2nd but my sister will be watching them so I'm comfortable with everything. Here are some cute pics from our first tummy time. And fussy Finn fighting sleep in the Moby

HEYYYY!! I'm 38+6 and ready to pop! I'm for serious hoping this is the last time I check in with an inside baby. *crossing all the things*
I'm finishing up my last week at work before maternity leave starts and it's been rough because I'm beyond uncomfortable. So much cramps, backache, BH contractions, pelvic pressure, etc but no actual labor yet. I have another appointment tomorrow but I think it will just be the usual checking vitals, checking heartbeat with the Doppler & "see you next week if no baby before then!" Mr. Fire is driving me insane because every noise I make (which is a lot because hello, moving isn't easy these days) he's convinced I'm going into labor. He's been getting a lot of side eye lately. I've been a major grumpasauras rex.
Loving all the beautiful bumps & babies!! Always lurking for more BFPs! Here's a bump shot for putting up with my bitching! Love you guys ❤️❤️❤️

teraiin - my first always was (and is) a peanut. Slow gain is still gain!
Thanks for the reassurance!
I think it's seeing the percentiles that freaks me out. 99 for head circumference, 95 for length, and 25 for weight. I keep reminding myself that mh is tall and thin soooo....
