How far along are you? 11+2
What is baby's size? About the size of a lime
Any appointments this week? Ultrasound and blood work on Thursday
How are you feeling? Starting to feel better I think. Trying a half dose of the diclectin today to see how it goes
Vents/Questions/Concerns: had some cramping overt the weekend after A took a flying jump and landed knee first in my stomach. Feeling better now though
QOTW: are you finding out baby's sex? If so are you doing it through NIPT blood test or the a/s? Yes. We will be finding out the sex. I'm doing the nipt but I don't think they will tell us the sex here. I'm going to ask about it again when I go on Thursday. If not we will do the a/s
Nothing at the moment. I'm just trying to take one day at a time and get through the next 10 days until my first MFM appointment.
QOTW - rights now H wants to find out the sex. With twins, I understand his side of it but I was wanting to be team green. We'll find out at a scan unless something comes up where we have to do earlier testing.
Any appointments this week? First OB appointment on Thursday
How are you feeling? Pretty good, just tired all the time
Vents/Questions/Concerns: N/a
QOTW: are you finding out baby's sex? If so are you doing it through NIPT blood test or the a/s? We will. I have no clue when or how as I don't know what our office recommends since we haven't seen an OB yet.

How far along are you? 11 weeks tomorrow.
What is baby's size? Donut hole
Any appointments this week? Nope. NT scan on Monday.
How are you feeling? Spurts of energy here and there, but still pretty tired. My back is almost always hurting.
Vents/Questions/Concerns: Not this week.
QOTW: Yes, we are finding out. I did the MaterniT21 testing last week and that will let us know. We should hear back sometime between this Thursday and next Wednesday. Can't wait!
How far along are you? 10w5d What is baby's size? however big everyone else's 10 weeker is Any appointments this week? Nope, but I did manage to drag myself in for the blood test last Friday. They took a dozen vials of blood. I took a picture, there were so many lined up. How are you feeling? Still super nauseous if I get up too quickly or move around too much. Which basically describes my life as a teacher and parent of small children. I can't wait to be out of the sick. Vents/Questions/Concerns: QOTW: are you finding out baby's sex? If so are you doing it through NIPT blood test or the a/s? Team green again. It was one of the first things MH asked, to make sure I was okay with not finding out again. With two boys already, I know so many people will be interested to know if this one will be a girl, but luckily everyone around us gets it that we don't care. Since we've been team green twice before now, all of our baby stuff is neutral anyway.
Any appointments this week? NT scan on Monday! It looks like there's a few of us with appointments on Monday :-)
How are you feeling? My nausea had disappeared for a few days but is now back. I've also had some minor cramping that I'm guessing is growing pains.
Vents/Questions/Concerns: The blood-tinged discharge. So far none today, so that's good. Also I'm waking up 2-3 times a night either to pee or because I'm uncomfortable, so that's annoying.
QOTW: are you finding out baby's sex? If so are you doing it through NIPT blood test or the a/s? Yep, we'll be finding out at the a/s.
How far along are you? 11+3 (u/s dating) // 12+2 (o date) What is baby's size? A fig.. lame - I want HP references! Any appointments this week? NT scan on Thursday and we should get our genetic testing blood work back by Friday.
How are you feeling? Ok. I'm not very anxious in my day to day life but I also try hard not to think about it very much. I've come to terms with my lack of being able to control what happens, so it's helped. I'm also focused a lot on grieving my first baby, since my due date is coming up in a couple weeks and it's just as hard as I thought it'd be to deal with. If everything looks good on Thursday we will tell my family and I may tell a few friends.
Physically, I have good days and bad days. Some days the nausea and headache is nonstop other times I feel totally normal.
Vents/Questions/Concerns: just hoping my NT scan goes well
QOTW: are you finding out baby's sex? If so are you doing it through NIPT blood test or the a/s? We are. We tested for sex. Hromosome abnormalities but agreed to just find out if those are ok by not the second til the scan at 18-20wks. DH really wants to find out from the ultrasound like a regular, healthy pregnancy. We'll see if we last til then or if we cave at our next appt lol
How far along are you? 10w2d What is baby's size? A lego man Any appointments this week? Today! Finally got our first look at this baby. So fun watching the little gummy bear move around. Measuring 10w6d, but not enough to move my due date up. How are you feeling? Tired and nauseous as usual. Vents/Questions/Concerns: nope QOTW: are you finding out baby's sex? If so are you doing it through NIPT blood test or the a/s? Undecided. I would like to be team green, H is unconvinced. We have another 10ish weeks to decide.

How far along are you? 11+2
What is baby's size? Two donut holes Any appointments this week? Nope. Next appt is 2.13
How are you feeling? This week has sucked. Lots of nausea and vomiting, exhaustion, and a tough work schedule.
Vents/Questions/Concerns: Just hoping that the babies are growing alright. A week seems like a long time since seeing them!
QOTW: are you finding out baby's sex? If so are you doing it through NIPT blood test or the a/s? We did the MaterniT 21 test which may or may not tell us the sex of both babies. If it doesn't, then we'll definitely find out during the a/s. Finding out there are two was definitely enough of a surprise for the whole pregnancy!

How far along are you? 10+0 What is baby's size? Cardinal tetra fish Any appointments this week? Had 1st OB this afternoon How are you feeling? tired Vents/Questions/Concerns: Hoping I can get my NT scheduled for 2/13. I've had weekly USs so far, I knew it would bite me eventually. QOTW: are you finding out baby's sex? If so are you doing it through NIPT blood test or the a/s? I was on the fence about wanting to know, but MH was quite adamant, and when all is said and done I hate to not know what someone else knows. We requested to find out through the Panorama test.
addymac you are in my thoughts, I am debating if we take an impromptu trip for the due date so I can dwell a little less.

How far along are you? 11w tomorrow
What is baby's size? Lego man until tomorrow.
Any appointments this week? Yesterday! We weren't able to hear baby with the dopplar, but that was expected because the placenta is in the way. My bp was beautiful, I've gained no weight, and my MW told me we can start weaning off progesterone at 13wks.
How are you feeling? Nausea on and off peeing all the time, some slight stretching/cramping every once in a while.
Vents/Questions/Concerns: I'm still so bloated! I've also been fighting a slight cold so pgal brain is messing with me.
QOTW: are you finding out baby's sex? If so are you doing it through NIPT blood test or the a/s? We are team green! Or we will be if we can last. Lol
PepperPottsJ thanks, you're in my thoughts, too. We are actually going on a vacation- which feels weird, but I have one week off work to mope and then as soon as DH finishes his rotation at the hospital, we leave that night for 10days of vacation. I made him plan everything, though. I couldn't do any of the planning other than the initial where are we going. I hope it helps and I'm not a mess the whole time!

How are you feeling? Good, but still super tired.
Vents/Questions/Concerns: nothing that I can think of
QOTW: are you finding out baby's sex? If so are you doing it through NIPT blood test or the a/s? I got the blood results back today! Baby is health and it's a GIRL!!! Yay
How far along are you? 11 weeks What is baby's size? bee hummingbird Any appointments this week? Nope How are you feeling? Tired. Less nauseous thanks to Diclegis. Vents/Questions/Concerns: Can't think of anything. QOTW: are you finding out baby's sex? If so are you doing it through NIPT blood test or the a/s? I did the Panorama test last week, waiting impatiently for the results. They should be done end of the week/early next week. I think it's super cool to know the sex this early!

What is baby's size? A brussels sprout (I thought it was brussel sprout, without the s. I guess not....)

Vents/Questions/Concerns: Nope. Not much going on here, same ol' same ol'.
QOTW: are you finding out baby's sex? If so are you doing it through NIPT blood test or the a/s? We will be doing an elective ultrasound to find out the sex, probably around 14-16 weeks.
