Hi GKU! Eleanor is one year old! Her party was Saturday and it was wonderful. She has her one year well check tonight, so shots and extra cuddles are on the docket.







Love you ladies, keep the BFPs coming!

[mustloveerica]

Hi ladies!

20 weeks today and the twins are officially half baked. 18 weeks or less until we meet our little ladies. It feels so weird and overwhelming to be on the downhill slope now. It took so long to preheat this oven that it amazes me how fast the entire pregnancy is going. Both of my showers are booked and I can't stop buying baby clothes.

Much love to all of you. More BFPs please!!!!!

Well that seems pretty surreal at this point!

I can't believe she's one cnf2013!! Thanks for letting us watch her grow ❤️

DS is resting up from a long weekend partying at his aunt's wedding (my SIL). He did really well but is super exhausted. It was stressful for us because we were both in the wedding, as was every other person he knows. He's going through a stranger danger phase so we were worried he would freak out.



H's cousin who has never met DS volunteered to watch him. They hit it off. (Pic used with his permission but I will delete it later)

And lastly this pic cracks me up because al I can think of is the gif where stitch is saying "hiiiiii"

31w2d here. It seems so crazy to be in the "30s" already. Nothing much to report, other than the fact that I'm thankful to have passed my 3 hr GTT, what with all the delicious holiday food coming my way. 😊

Hey GKU! As I said last week, DD turned 1 last week. She is walking for real now and it's exhausting!!

In other news from last week, I tested Friday and apparently I'm pregnant! Completely unexpected! I really thought we'd be heading back to the RE for another medicated IUI mid next year. We were trying, but I never thought we would be looking at 2u2! I'm still in shock and trying to keep my PAL brain at bay since I won't get early US with my RE like last time. My chart was triphasic, which was interesting to realize after the fact.

Congrats ldubhawksfan!

I'll hit 14 weeks on Thanksgiving, and can no longer deny my bump (though it is small). I'm still sick most days, but I'm rolling with it. Mostly I'm impatiently waiting for my Harmony results. Stupid holiday getting in my way

So exciting to see all the third trimester people!

Hi GKU!

I'm 35 weeks! I cannot believe that I only have a little over a month to go.

I have finally mastered the pregnancy waddle, and am dealing with these lovely pregnancy pains. I feel like I am 90 years old some days.

I am having Braxton Hicks every day, but no real sign of him coming anytime soon. DH and I had the hospital tour today and that was the last thing we have to do before he comes, so I am ready!

I will switch over to tapatalk and upload a picture when I can.

How are you 35 weeks already?!

Sam turned four months old Saturday, I can't believe it. He's a peanut in the 26th percentile for weight and 64th for height which is insane because he looks so huge to me! He met Santa over the weekend and was unimpressed. He's usually pretty smiley but had me, H, his grandparents, Santa and the photographer all trying to get him to smile and NOTHING. It made for a pretty great photo though haha



Happy Thanksgiving ladies! I'm hoping for those waiting for BFPs, that the holidays bring wonderful news for you 

[onesweetworld]

Hi my ladies! No updates. M is almost half baked.

I love you and miss you and wanted to wish you all very happy thanksgivings! ❤️❤️❤️

[jubilantsquirrel]

39 weeks today and I'm wearing my slippers at work, zero fucks given.

I gave this kid a pep talk this morning and told him I'd love him forever if he decided to enter the world sometime this week. I really, really don't want to come back to work after Thanksgiving.

[thelittleredm]

Congratulations ldubhawksfan!

E will be 1 month old on Friday. We spent this past weekend with her and she is growing so much and gaining so much more personality too. She is 3lbs 4oz, she had a good appointment with an opthamologist yesterday too. She is now using a pacifier and if it falls out she defaults to her fingers. Doctors last week said possibility another 6 weeks or so.

Still lurking and rooting for you all. Happy thanksgiving!!

I love this update. Grow, little duck, grow!

Hiya! I went back to work this week. Baby Girl is with a nanny right now but will switch to daycare in two weeks. I am finding the balance between work/home to be much needed and I already feel myself in a happier place. Baby Girl has done well without me all day but is still happy to see me when I get home!

Big news: she can roll from belly to back. I put her on the couch last weekend and put my leg up "just in case she went anywhere." She rolled right into my leg so I put her on the ground and off she went. I'm not the best with tummy time so I'm grateful she figured this out without the pediatrician chastising me!

That hair!!  I'm dying over the cuteness!!!  

[akraus2015]

I don't have much to report, other than I'm still pregnant, which is super exciting!

This pregnancy seems so different than the last two. There's no spotting, nothing worrisome like there was before. Everything feels good (and by good, I mean exhausting and nauseating). We'll see baby tomorrow just to be sure, which I'm super excited about, but I had 6 blood draws ending in betas that rose from 41 to over 8,100. I'm finally starting to relax a little bit, although my pgal brain is always going in the background.

Keep the BFP's coming!!

[teachermomtobe]

Loving all the BFPs and adorable bumps and babies!

I'm 10w5d and so excited we are telling my family tomorrow and DH's family on Thanksgiving. I am looking forward to being "out" soon at work too. Feeling terrible around 4pm every day until I go to bed around 8pm but 2nd tri is on the horizon so I hope to feel better soon.

End of July. I saw you are in July too, I was lurking on the BMB yesterday as the shock started to wear off! Ha

Congrats ldubhawksfan!
youdontsay her hair is amazingly adorable!

[cateyes]

11w2d!! We had our last doctor's appointment of first tri today which is super surreal. Everything was perfect! I feel so so so relieved. And the doctor pulled out the portable ultrasound machine so we also got to see Bug moving around and jumping and flipping and everything else. Combine that with the Doppler and we got to hear the little heart and hear the kicks as we saw them on the screen! It was so cool!

Still working on believing this is real after so long but here we are!

Always lurking and cheering you ladies on. Sending love to all you ladies!!

Hi guys! I have an outside baby!!!

Team Green turned Team PINK on Friday the 18th (39w4d) after I was induced for hypertension. D.iana Alic.e came into the world sunny side up, covered in vernix, and with plenty of hair, weighing 8 lb. 9 oz. and measuring 20.25" long.

Mama, Daddy, and big brother are all smitten. Everything about this birth and postpartum so far has been light years easier and more enjoyable than my experience with DS's birth. I am so, so happy she's here and so excited to have a little girl.

Pics (PDQ and sorry if huge; imgur sucks on mobile):



Thank you guys so much for being part of my pregnancy journey. It's going to be a little bit until we're ready to try for a third, but I'll definitely be back on the board before then as we WTDS And rooting hard for BFPs as always!
