[Quinstar]

Weeks/Baby's Size: 11+6/lime

Appointment plans/results: Tomorrow! Check up ultrasound at 8:45 and then right after a screening ultrasound and DNA test.

How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice) My back/hips are killing me. Breasts are getting more tender, and I still can't eat. Not nauseous, I just am uninterested in pretty much all food.

Any U/S, bump pics: Newp. Tomorrow there will be u/s pictures.

Bonus GTKY: What's your most peaceful place to be? about 5:30 in the morning, drinking coffee and cooking bacon while camping in the woods. Dew on everything, wrapped up in a big blanket because it's chilly, and sitting in a camp chair. Add in a babbling creek, and I'm in heaven.

[jnow]

3/30

8. Ummmm?

First appt went well. Intake and dating ultrasound in 2 weeks.

How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice)

I've puked twice since Friday. I feel like crap. My kid doesn't sleep, so neither do I.

IT'S AWESOME.

Any U/S, bump pics:

In the first appt thread.

At the beach. By myself.

[missi]

Appointment plans/results: I have another appointment on Thursday. Yay pictures Yay another attempt to check to see if this is a boy or girl!


How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice)
The cold seems to be running its course. The cough still hurts >< I'm tentatively optomistic about the m/s symptoms starting later and later. I'm hoping it is not just me feeling so crappy from the cold and headaches so I don't notice it. Mayyybeee when this cold lets up, I'll feel decent!? ~crosses fingers~

Any U/S, bump pics: I need to take one... maybe later today? ^_^


Bonus GTKY: What's your most peaceful place to be? @amc25 already put mine down! There are relaxing places in the world, but ultimately, I just want my hubby's arms around me and our family around us.

[skk]

EDD: 3/24

Weeks/Baby's Size: 9w3d/pecan

Appointment plans/results: Appt last Thursday went well. Next appt will be in a few weeks.

How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice) I'm still nauseous and tired, but managing most days. Food is hit or miss...sometimes I'm really hungry, but just can't eat. I hope to get over this soon.

Any U/S, bump pics: Nothing new.

Bonus GTKY: What's your most peaceful place to be?
Out on the beach at sunset.

[mosdub]

EDD: 4/1/17 (I don't know what BMB I belong to anymore!)

Weeks/Baby's Size: 8w2d / Small lego or a Matrix Pill, apparently.

Appointment plans/results: I just had one today (updated in the appointment thread) and since it was the first one they could date it turns out my due date is 4/1/17! I'll probably still play on this BMB as well as April, if no one cares

How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice) Nausea, but not uncontrollable. My doctor said that he thinks I'm "out of the woods" now because the ultrasound looked so good but I feel like that's a brave and ballsy thing to tell me. I'm still going with cautiously optimistic. Last time he didn't catch the PMP on the 10 week ultrasound, so why would he catch it on the 8 week?

Any U/S, bump pics: It's enormous, and mostly a blob, but here it is

SPOILER: Click to show

{Click here to see more.}

Bonus GTKY: What's your most peaceful place to be? It used to be my Grandma's house on the river, but since she's passed and the house was sold it's probably my parents house on the lake.

[missi]

Definitely should stick around and keep us updated, mosdub, I'm terrible about that for the February board, but I'm trying!

[moutonrouge]

EDD: 3/7

Weeks/Baby's Size: 11w6d/doughnut hole

Appointment plans/results: U/S on Wednesday

How ya feeling: Pretty good, actually. My mom showed me my baby book this weekend. It's somewhat filled out - she lost momentum eventually. My little brother doesn't have one, which made me laugh.

Any U/S, bump pics: I definitely have the did-she-eat-a-big-lunch thing going on. It can't be sucked in. But no pics.

Bonus GTKY: What's your most peaceful place to be? Probably reading by the water. Any water will do

[cosmicav]

Due dates are just a suggestion mosdub you are definitely needed around here!

[daisylola11]

EDD: March 6th

Weeks/Baby's Size: 12 weeks clementine ~2.1in

Appointment plans/results: scheduled our gender scan for sept 3rd, DH will be able to come so that will be nice. After that just a quick check up at OBs mid sept then anatomy scan oct 21st!!! Holy crap!!!

How ya feeling: exhaustion has definitely subsided, I don't require a nap everyday. But hungry all day long.

Any U/S, bump pics: I took a 12 week bump pick but saving it for HDBD

Bonus GTKY: lately just a nice long hot shower will do it. But I too love water so beach, river, lake is good.

[kristhegirl]

EDD: 3/13/17


Weeks/Baby's Size: 11 weeks, poker chip


Appointment plans/results: nothing until next Friday.


How ya feeling: I'm feeling good! Decided to not work the last four days to try and get some sleep, and I think it's really helped and my cough wasn't as bad last night.


Any U/S, bump pics: no, but I've noticed my abs are already splitting. I don't know when that started the first time, I never checked.


Bonus GTKY: What's your most peaceful place to be? Porch, rocking chair, beverage of choice, book, nature sounds all around.

[amandamh2]

EDD: April 1


Weeks/Baby's Size: 8w2d, raspberry


Appointment plans/results: calling who I hope will be my new doctor. Now that I'm 8 weeks I'll actually be taken seriously


How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice). Threw up again this morning but have actually been feeling slightly better the past two days. The blump is real. I went shopping this past weekend for a dress for DH's grad in a couple weeks and finding one that didn't make me look super pregnant was a challenge. As is people will probably have questions.


Any U/S, bump pics: nope


Bonus GTKY: I miss the camp I worked at as a teenager. We also went to the same lake for our wedding night and I would love to go back. DH and I are actually thinking of taking an overnight trip sans kiddo somewhere this fall and I'm going to suggest we go back there. We haven't done an overnight without DS yet but with how crazy this past year and especially past couple months have been I think we need it.

[amandamh2]

mosdub, stay and be April/March buddies with me! I thought I might lurk both boards but I'm not sure I have the energy for that.

[glb30]

EDD: 3/25

Weeks/Size: 9w2d

Appointment: I have an appointment with OB #2 on Thursday. We'll decide who to stick with after that.

How ya feeling: I'm okay. In fighting some viral infection, and I'm so worried about it harming the baby. I have a low grade fever, and just feel crappy/weak. I made an appointment with the (regular) doctor for tomorrow.

Bonus: I like being in bed, in a cool room with the morning light coming in and a breeze from an open window.

[daisylola11]

cosmicav 2nd trimester! Yes???

I'll definitely stay  I didn't know which board I should do check-ins on, but I guess it doesn't matter too much.  I just don't want to be a major PW lol 

[muskiefan]

We will likely end up with babies born across 3.5 months mosdub, so I'd say stick around

[suelou18]

EDD: March 12


Weeks/Baby's Size: 11 weeks. No idea on size.


Appointment plans/results: I had an appointment yesterday and it went well. Dr. is not changing my due date, but I was measuring at 11w6d yesterday on the ultrasound. I am clinging onto every day until I get out of the first trimester and this morning sickness passes. After that, I really won't care. This LO was on the move during the ultrasound, so that was really fun to see.


How ya feeling: (Symptoms, cravings, rants, raves, baby names, interesting articles, good buys, other advice)
Still dealing with MS, mostly at night. During the day, I'm doing pretty good, but once I get home from work, I crash. I'm hoping that once the super sniffer nose goes away, I'll be feeling better. For now, give me the drugs.

Any U/S, bump pics: Nope.


Bonus GTKY: What's your most peaceful place to be? Taking a nice long bath, reading a book, and relaxing.

Any U/S, bump pics: Nope

Bonus GTKY: What's your most peaceful place to be? anyway where with my little family where they are happy and laughing. It makes my heart happy to hear them enjoying life.
