EDD: 03/13
Weeks/Baby's Size: 10 weeks/Lego figure!
Appointment plans/results: Nada
How ya feeling: Still tired, but maybe possibly slightly less tired than I have been.
Any U/S, bump pics: Newp.
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? This is my last, so I'm just soaking it all in. Then I'm done with the baby-making chapter in my life. I just want to enjoy it.
Appointment plans/results: No more appts until 9/6, I believe.
How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice) Exhausted, nauseous, the usual...
Any U/S, bump pics: nope. Actually felt skinny yesterday, which is weird considering the only thing that has tasted good the last week or so has been bagels..so I've had a Dunkins plain bagel w/ veggie cream cheese every single day this past week.
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? B/c I'm in slightly better shape (& starting out about 10lbs lighter than with DD), I'm hopeful I'll get to feel "cute pregnant" at some point, instead of immediately going from bloated to just fat feeling. Also, yay for a valid excuse to wear leggings and Uggs all fall/winter!
EDD: 3/31 (by LMP, not sure what doctor will use yet)
Weeks/Baby's Size: 7w3d
Appointment plans/results: I have my second ultrasound tomorrow
How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice) I'm still sick. The Diclegis seems to have helped a bit but the nausea still sets in as the day goes on. PGAL brain has been rough too with the approaching ultrasound.
Any U/S, bump pics: not yet.
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? I'm looking forward to feeling the baby move. There's nothing quite like it.
Weeks/Baby's Size: 11w 5days I think? I know they were 2" long on Thursday
Appointment plans/results: Every two weeks "until at least 32 weeks" said my doctor. So.. I have them scheduled from here until mid-December.
How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice) Blob like.. nauseated.. food is not appealing.. sick of Jolly Ranchers? I actually had to borrow two crates of cereal from grocery this morning because I was about to pass out doing my job >< Forced me to spill the beans to my job
Any U/S, bump pics: No new ones.. and I feel fat, so yeah, no bump pictures >.>
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? Hopefully feeling better in the next two or three weeks? Past that, the movements. Little O and A hurt me they were so active >.< But I remember loving the movements with my singles

EDD: 3/23 Weeks: 8w 5d Appt plans/results: nothing until 9/1. How ya feeling: physically pretty good other than sore boobs, which is concerning mentally. Although the nausea sucks, it was comforting in a way. I'm trying to find comfort in the fact that I'm starving most of the time instead. Bonus: definitely the baby kicks. One of my most favorite things ever!
Appointment plans/results: NT scan on 8/24, 2nd midwife appt on 8/31
How ya feeling: Better today, but last week was really rough. I'm hoping that was the last hurrah for the nausea. I feel a little less tired, too, which is great. Not quite the magical transformation I was hoping for, but I'll take it.
Any U/S, bump pics: Nope
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? This is tough! Mildly concerned I had a better answer for the zombie apocalypse than I do for this But I think I'm most looking forward to feeling baby move.
Appointment plans/results: A week from today! AH! It will hopefully be the first ultrasound where we get to see/hear little one's heartbeat. Last ultrasound there was only a gestational sac + yolk sac. Please be there, baby!
How ya feeling: Today I'm having some period-like cramps. I know they are normal due to uterus growing. They somehow are both reassuring and scary.
Any U/S, bump pics: Nopity nope! Hoping next week I can show you all a healthy blob though!
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? I'm liking the idea of being nearly in 3rd tri around Christmas. I think I'll be big enough to look like a cute pregnant person but not so big to feel terribly uncomfortable? Also looking forward to coming up with a clever Halloween costume...

mosdub I forgot about the good timing for holidays. I was 35 weeks at thanksgiving when I was pregnant with ds and it was terrible. It started labor for me lol.
Appointment plans/results: Next Wednesday is 11w NT & genetic testing. We get to find out the sex then!
How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice)- starting to feel better. Can't tell if the sleeplessness, and queasy stomach is PG related or due to nerves about the HUGE presentation I have this week.
Any U/S, bump pics: nope.
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? I second leggings and Uggs. But also the few purchases I will get to make (like another crib/carrier/clothes). Oh, and I think I talked DH into letting me get a new car too! So that will be fun car shopping!
Appointment plans/results: I have an appointment this Thursday.
How ya feeling: Like a bottomless pit. I'm hungry All. The. Time.
Any U/S, bump pics: I have a slight bump...but it kind of just looks like I'm fat.
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy?
Oh man, not much honestly. I'm mostly apprehensive about having to deliver in Alabama. I had an extremely positive experience in NH and I don't think I'll get the same here. It's still to early for hospital tours, but I guess I need to talk to my Dr. this week since the 1st trimester is almost over.

EDD: March 6th
Weeks/Baby's Size: 11 weeks (Measured 5 days ahead at today's u/s 1.9 in!!)
Appointment plans/results: appt today went really great! It was nuts recording the u/s and seeing so much movement. Midwife mentioned how tall baby will be since measuring 5 days ahead ha, but still keeping the due date the 6th.
How ya feeling: much better, no nausea but hungry all the time!!
Any U/S, bump pics: I was that crazy person who recorded and went frame by frame to find cute shots of this baby lol
Bonus GTKY: Yes another vote for movement!! I loved it last time, and of course finding out the gender
Appointment plans/results: First OB apt on Thursday! I am excited and REALLY hope I get a glimpse of little one.
How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice. Nausea. Plus I am having the occasional sharp pain or "full" feeling in my pelvis. My sleep is pretty erratic too. I am usually pretty tired but sometimes have a hard time sleeping or staying asleep.
Any U/S, bump pics: I am rocking the blump at the moment.
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? Being big enough and far enough along to tell the girls and talk about it. Finding out the sex and doing a little shopping. Feeling movement from the inside this time!
mosdub, erinshelley21, I forgot about the holiday timing but it seems like it will be great! A cute little bump for Halloween and hopefully still comfortable for thanksgiving/Christmas!
How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice): nausea is completely gone. Boobs are not so sore but nipples are burning. I have a big appetite this week and I'm finding it hard to control.
Any U/S, bump pics: no. My blump game is on point though. When will it be a real bump?
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? Movement. I really can't wait. It's kinda of both creapy and amazing at the same time.
mikaela20 you're getting close to bump time! I think for new moms it's anytime starting at 12 weeks. If you've already had a child it can show sooner due to abdominal muscles already being loosened from first pregnancy. At 12 weeks your ute will be the size of a grapefruit, so just barely starting to pop above your pelvis!

So I have been MIA the last few weeks....after an eventful night in the ER for what we thought was an allergic reaction, DS was diagnosed with pneumonia. So we were dealing with that for 2 weeks, I was sick (thank you very much LO2) and exhausted. Work has been crazy the last few weeks...I'm ready for a vacay!
EDD: 3/12/17
Weeks/Baby's Size: 10w1d, baby is a kumquat
Appointment plans/results: Appointment tomorrow and will schedule my 12 week u/s.
How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice) still feeling poopy! I'm ready for this ms to disappear and I have a cough....hoping DS didn't give me his pneumonia.
I think we're finally going to tell the families this week -- my family will finally be back from gallivanting around the word. (My sister was in India for 2 weeks and my parents took my youngest 2 siblings to Ireland for 2 weeks.) After we tell my family we will tell DHs....have to wait to tell them b/c they can't be trusted on social media.
Any U/S, bump pics: none
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? being able to eat anything....I'm usually always dieting and watching what I eat, so letting go a little bit is nice.

EDD: 3/30
Weeks/Baby's Size: 7w5d/raspberry, playing die
Appointment plans/results: Not again until Sept 12th. That's forevvvverrrrr away!
How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice) Meh. Random bouts of nausea, especially in the evenings, still some sore boobage, food aversions are getting stronger, bloating and sooooo freaking tired!
Any U/S, bump pics: The blump is real here.
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? Definitely when baby starts moving. That's always the coolest feeling! And also seeing how DD reacts when the bump starts getting bigger. And trying to help her understand that there's a baby brother or sister in there.
Appointment plans/results: Two appointments on the 23rd @ 12 weeks
How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice) Pretty good actually. I had to go to the chiropractor yesterday because my hips were out so bad, it was getting up into my back and I was in a lot of pain. I'm tired out really easily still, and food still seems unappetizing.
Any U/S, bump pics: Newp
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? Everything, I've never experienced any of it before, I'm excited to feel the baby kick.
Appointment plans/results: bloodwork for genetic testing next Thursday 8/25
How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice) tired, STARVING (so opposite my last pregnancy), a little nauseous still
Any U/S, bump pics: nope but I feel huge. Haven't gained any weight to speak of yet but definitely am starting to look pregnant 😁
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)? I'm so excited to see DD as a big sister. And to feel baby move. And to look pregnant, not just chubby!
Appointment plans/results: well the doctor never called about my blood work which is good since she said she would only call if there was a problem. Next appointment is 9/15 for an ultrasound and next OB appointment is that day as well. I am taking a half day and going shopping and then meeting MH for lunch before we go to the appointments!
How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice) still so very tired. My back is hurting again. My boobs are hurting a bit more. I am needing all the root beer popsicles but we couldn't find any so I have Italian ice that is root beer. Omg so good!
Any U/S, bump pics: nope
Bonus GTKY: What are you most looking forward to during this pregnancy (obviously besides baby at the end)?: movement. It's the best and worse (because it hurts when they are strong)! I also can't wait to see how Clara reacts when my bump is here and when she feels the baby!
Forgive me for being a misery loves company, but I am so happy to hear I am not the only one still struggling through feeling no so great and nauseated. Sooo jealous of those of you getting past this.
OH, I thought about something else I'm excited about this pregnancy... Not being due so late in the month! With DD, she was due the 22nd, and a week late, so born on the 29th. I always felt a bit behind the rest of my board with milestones, especially when so many babies were born early, and 6+ weeks older than her.

With DS's BMB, I was due the first week and DS ended up being born 8 days early, in the month before. This time, I'm due March 31 so I'm guessing I'll have a much different experience!
I was going to keep up with February board as well, because of the March 1st thing.. I keep browsing, but I'm so insanely tired that I barely keep up with the March board >< Being all the way at the end or the beginning does feel weird.
