I swear I saw this last week Tuesday. Are we still doing it? If so, I wanna see those bumps and squishies! If not, we can turn this into something else!
ETA- based on all the love tits, I'm assuming this is wanted. Fill us in, grads!

HAI! I've been stalking over here to see if we were going to have one today.
I'm 31w6d and just hanging in there. I have an OB appointment tomorrow, just a checkup, but I'm not looking forward to it because I'm always gaining weight and I'm starting to dread the scale. I'm getting to my highest weight I've ever been in my life and it's making my body issues come out again. Meh.
Baby is doing well, nothing really new. I've started growing out of some of my maternity clothes, but a really nice bumpie grad friend sent me a few pieces so I won't be naked in June . I'm honestly trying to figure out how much bigger this belly is going to get. She likes to push out, that's for sure. My belly button is *almost* out. I'm just waiting for it. It's become sort of a daily joke between DH and I since my belly button was super deep before pregnancy.
My first shower is on Sunday so that's something to look forward to. Hopefully I'll have some pics to AW. Nursery is slowly coming together. I started hanging pictures last week so Yay, progress!
I'm always rooting for all of you! Love and hip bumps to all of you!

Hi! First time checking in here on this. It's been a bit of a bumpy road, with some spotting here and there. First tri has knocked me on my ass and my anxiety was super high. I had an u/s due to spotting/cramping at 7w and while we saw a h/b, the dates were off. Within the margin of error, but worrisome. They told me it was an old machine, not hugely reliable, not to worry, but . . .
Had an appt Friday with my OB and u/s on good equipment and baby measured on track at 8w (a day behind my ticker) with a beautiful heartbeat and I feel a lot more confident now. Still many hurdles to cross before we arrive at healthy, living baby, but first ones down. I have an appt with my MFM scheduled for NIPT and u/s and to discuss cerclage and who will place it (MFM or OB); that's just before 12w. Then the next step will be getting test results back - hopefully good - and placing cerclage.
Just hanging out and trying not to throw up until then. I've got a ridiculous blump going - fortunately just look fat if you don't know me, but it's definitely pregnancy (though not yet baby) related. I feel absurd for wearing mat clothes at 8w, but dude. The bloat is real.

Hey GKU!
I will be 23 weeks tomorrow and it feels like time if flying by. Nothing too exciting going on here, I have my glucose tolerance test next week and I'm hoping that comes out fine with no signs of gestational diabetes. I have anterior placenta so I haven't been feeling movements as of yet. Sometimes I think it might be the baby moving around but nothing consistent enough to know for sure. I know soon enough I will start feeling those little kicks and I cannot wait.
As always I'm lurking and can't wait to see all your BFP's!

Hey GKU!!
I'm 12 weeks today!!! Still no official bump. We graduated from our RE this morning and got to see the babe one last time on a weekly basis. I was spoiled!! It was sucking it's thumb. Super cute! MS has let up, so I'm kind of loving it now. Just want sleep, sleep and more sleep!

It has been a long time since I've updated on the grad thread and I might do two weeks in a row. I'm 22 weeks and things are going well. My ob and I are in discussions over having a vbac. He has said if I can keep this baby under 9lbs and gain 7kg or less then I get to try. So far I haven't gained anything, I keep losing, love having that extra metabolism, and the baby was measuring a week behind at my a/s. So far my ob isn't as happy about the possibility of a vbac as I am. Speaking of a/s we didn't see anything except the baby's spine, so I go back for a/s round two this week.
I don't have a bump pic to share cause I still just look fat but I want you all to know that I keep lurking and cheering you all on.

Here's a pic from my first Mother's Day with an outside baby. If you have your ute goggles on you can just make out the tiny little inside baby. Lucky(?) for me I didn't know that I was KU at the time and managed to sneak in eggs benedict, oysters, and a mimosa at Mother's Day brunch. On the flip side, DH's birthday dinner snuck out this morning in my first bout of morning sickness. I'm looking forward to June 23rd and hearing the littler LOs heartbeat.

Oh hai! I'm 28w3d and I just took a terrible pic in the work bathroom because I know I haven't posted many pics and you all need to see me turn into a blimp. Baby Biblio is kicking up a storm and I think we've settled on a nursery color.
Edit: please to ignore my giant ass; it's where all my Portuguese went.

We had our second appointment yesterday at 10w1d and it wasn't so great. They found some fluid behind baby's head and back, so we have an NT scheduled for the 29th tentatively. If the perinatologist calls though with an earlier appointment his will trump. No call today. My OB said depending on how bad they think it is will determine how quickly they call and get me in. No call today, so I'm hoping that's a good thing. Here's to a long two week wait I thought I'd never have. Anyone else ever have anything similar? Any words of hope or wisdom? Other than that baby is measuring exactly on par with my O date and has a beautiful HR of 167.

Hi everyone! There hasn't been much to update, so I haven't done one of these in a few weeks. I'm 12 weeks, no real bump yet, but we had our NT scan yesterday so here's a picture!
Also we posted our FB announcement yesterday, so I'll go ahead and AW that too. Edit to resize giant photos

Hi GKU!!
I finally got my bump at 17 weeks! Second tri is not as symptom free as I would like but overall can't complain. We also found out about a week or so ago Baby M is a girl!
Lurking often for BFPs. Crossing fingers and toes that 2016 is the year of the baby for you ladies!!

Well I am 22 weeks and some change. Last week I met with new OB and spent over an hour getting all my concerns and worries handled. The next day we had our A/S and we are having another BOY! So his name will be Dominic William Ray. (Grandfathers and great grandfather's names) I've had only 5lbs of weight gain and that has been a relief so far but I am still struggling with body issues especially with Summer creeping up. Just reminding myself its all for a good cause. According to Dr and apps we have hit Viability and every day onward is 3% more in our favor of him surviving.
So with 4 months to go til EDD, here is last weeks picture!!!
Always rooting and lurking for BFP's for all of you and happy to see the ones that have happened!!
I'm 12w2d today. My next appointment is tomorrow (finally!!!) and then another on Friday with the genetic counselor. I think I'm getting ultrasounds done, Friday for sure but maybe Thursday, I don't know. Different offices. So we'll get to see D'Floyd looking like something other than a blob, hopefully. I haven't seen him/her since halfway through 7w.
Nausea is letting up a bit, afternoon headaches are now the biggest annoyance and I'm 100% sure they are blood sugar related. I ate a very early, light dinner before my concert last night and didn't have a snack before bed. I woke up with a pounding headache. Also, I ate chicken nuggets at school yesterday and it was okay, I didn't feel sick. So unrecognizable, breadcrumb-coated chicken is okay.
I'm still the queen of burping, though. It's out of control.
So happy to see my ladies moving along in their pregnancies -- you all are beautiful
