I'm lurking GKU always and rooting for more bfps to come.
AFM, I'm sitting at double digits now-10 Weeks! Feeling good this week and have been eating pretty decently these last couple weeks. Counting down the weeks to 2nd tri. It's starting to sink in now.
We saw baby at 7 weeks with the RE and all looked good and healthy and got to hear the heart beating.
We go for our first OB appt Aug 25. I'm excited to see the babe again but also nervous to see what the OB says about my high risk category ( uterus abnormality). I'm doing my best to not google and stay focused on the positives right now though.
Hi everyone! I've hit 30 weeks! Last week's appointment didn't go particularly well. Baby boy refused to breathe during the BPP, so we went for an NST that took an hour and a half. They couldn't find two heartbeats, and then noticed I was having contractions. They eventually found the second heartbeat and the contractions calmed down with lots of water and everyone's ok. We're working on getting things together for our hospital bags and found adorable coming home outfits. I'm starting to stress about who all is going to be at our house and controlling the chaos now that we're less than 8 weeks away from having babies.

Hi GKU! I'm 12 weeks tomorrow, which is so exciting! The end of first tri is in sight. I have a scan on Friday. I'm nervous but optimistic. If it goes well, we're going to tell everyone! We had been keeping the news pretty quiet other than telling my parents.
In other news, I am graduating on Saturday! I have one more assignment to finish, and then I'm done with my master's. I can't wait.

Hi! 12 weeks tomorrow, and my first appointment is tomorrow. I'm excited to see baby briefly and see my midwife, who is one of my favorite people ever. I might, maybe, possibly be seeing some relief from this 24/7 nausea. I've already started getting braxton hicks contractions which isn't fun. I dealt with an irritable uterus with DS and it looks like I might be in for another round of it. The good news is that I didn't have actual preterm labor last time so I hopefully won't this time either. The bump is getting pretty obvious so I'm thinking we're going social media official sometime soon.
I'm 25+1 today. At my OB appointment last week I found out that they had kept my original EDD of 11/21 in their system despite the fact that I was told they were moving it up to 11/17 at my NT Scan. Boo for moving backwards.
I am feeling pretty good although I'm hot all the time. Some of the more glamorous (i.e., terrible) symptoms of pregnancy, which I didn't really experience with DS, are starting to rear their ugly heads too but for the most part I am having an easy pregnancy and for that I am grateful.
DH built the crib in DS's big boy room yesterday, which means that within 2 weeks, DS will be moved out of the nursery and I can start getting it set up for a new baby! I'm so excited for this; I feel like it'll make it feel really real.
Hey everyone! All the babies and bumps are adorable! Fx for more of you to get your BFPs soon!
I hit 31 weeks on Monday. I've officially entered the uncomfortable stage, and it seems a lot earlier than it happened with my previous two kids. Of course, my last pregnancy was a little over 7 years ago and I'm now an old lady at age 40, so that could be the difference. I go for a follow-up u/s next week to check the status of my placenta. The results of that u/s will determine how long they let me stay pregnant. As of my last u/s, I was told by the MFM doc that I would likely be delivering between 34 and 37 weeks. Fingers crossed that things aren't too bad in there and they'll let me get to 37 weeks. I want my little boy in there cooking as long as possible.

Glad to hear little duck is dancing around in there peaseblossom55! My thoughts continue to be with you!
Thanks for the tag kayladawn91! Not too much to update this week, but I'll be 36 weeks tomorrow and can't believe there's less than a month until my due date! Tired, hip pain, and swollen feet are still the norm but otherwise I'm feeling pretty good! My mom bought me a prenatal massage for my birthday so I scheduled that for next weekend. It's going to be awesome!
It's so crazy having this major life changing event coming up soon and not knowing when it will actually happen. Especially considering I'm planning to work until I go into labor!
I haven't updated in awhile because there haven't been huge changes. I'm 28 weeks and some change, so officially 3rd tri now. I had an appt last Thursday-passed my GTT and received my tDap booster and found out baby's been measuring 2 weeks ahead for my last two appts (the OB at the appt before didn't mention my measurements). The PA says they'll continue to monitor of course, but they aren't concerned yet because it's been consistent. I finally see *my* OB again next Thursday, so I'm curious to see what he says. DS measured right on until 35 weeks, then didn't grow anymore, so this is new territory.
Physically I'm def feeling 3rd tri. Lots of low back pain, which is probably the most uncomfortable thing I'm dealing with.
I'm always lurking and rooting for more BFPs. Congrats to all the award winners!
I figure I will give an update. I can't thank you enough for all of the love and support I received when I posted here last. I am 18 weeks 3 days with Baby B (aka Duck) I've been on bed rest since being home from the hospital. I go to see the new MFM doctor Friday and from there we will determine if I need to be on any meds or if I will be continuing the bed rest. I am nervous and excited for it. I miss Maggie so very much, it hurts, especially coming up on the 1 year birthday of Annel.iese. Meanwhile I'm feeling so much movement from duck, especially after anything sweet and late at night. She loves 2am dance parties!!!!!
Still lurking and rooting for you all.
I am so sorry but so glad that you're doing well now. {{hugs}}

Thank you for the tag!
I'm 17+6 today and things are going uneventfully.
I had an appointment today and things went well! I only gained 2lbs since my last appointment which is great because I've been really worried about weight gain this time around since I never really lost the weight with DS. Hopefully, I'll keep this trend up the rest of this pregnancy. I also got to hear baby's heartbeat which was, as the midwife called it laughing, "very spritely". She gave me a prescription for Zofran so hopefully I'll be able to get off the Unisom and be more awake during the day.
I was also able to schedule my A/S for the 26th of this month. H and I are still up in the air about finding out the sex so we're Team Green for now.

Hey guys! Ethan is 2.5 weeks & more awesome every day! He's such a mellow, happy guy, I keep waiting for it to change! Breastfeeding is going well & at his 2 week appointment last Friday he had passed his birth weight by 5 oz. Sleep is still a challenge but we had a great night last night so here's hoping we're turning the corner. As for my big kid, she's starting 2nd grade tomorrow! Always love seeing the beautiful bumps & babies, and stalking for all the BFPs!
Mackenzie is obsessed with playing on snapchat on my phone, so I find gems like these saved in my phone all the time.
Number One: Born 06.16.2009 BFP: 01.17.2014 / MC 02.05.2014 BFP: 03.08.2014 / MMC: 05.07.2014 Dx: Partial Molar/GTD. Benched until 01.2015 Number Two: Born 07.22.2016
icaughtfire that 3rd pic of him is so cute! He looks so happy 2nd grade is the most fun (in my opinion as one who works with all grade levels) - congrats to your dd!
@led adorable little gal! Can hardly believe how big she is and how she is singing along with music
Baby GO turned 1 month yesterday. Time can please slow down-- I think he'll be a teenager too soon! He's gained 2lbs and he's eating like a champ. It's his favorite hobby.
I'm trying to hang out more on GKU because I know next year we'll TFAS and I love this board, but I have to TFC one handed most of the time(did I mention this kid likes to eat?) so I'm mostly just love titing and lurking.

Hi ladies! 23 weeks pregnant over here and things have been rather uneventful. Which is good, right? I'm on vacation in cape cod this week and likely exceeding every seafood recommendation during pregnancy. If the babies come out asking for clams, scallops or lobster - we will know why.
My next growth scan is on Aug 18 so I'm hoping I'll have some good pics to share then. I can feel the babies moving a lot more now, especially in the evening or if I play them some music.

I'm late, but didn't want to ignore my tag. Thanks, teraiin!
Lexi will be 9 months on Friday. I can't believe it. Also, as of today, she has been out for as long as she was in (38w6d). I thought my pregnancy went fast, but this is on a whole new level.
She isn't crawling yet, and I wonder if she'll just go straight to walking. She looooves to stand and likes to only hold on with one hand. She has her two bottom teeth. She loves to use her pincer grasp to feed herself, but is still nursing the majority of the time. Her little personality is stunning. She's getting sassy and is a very happy baby.
I've loved the recent bfps and hope to see more! ❤️❤️
