9w 1d here! Had my first appt with my OB yesterday... got to see Baby!! We are measuring right on track with a due date of 7/18/2016. Heartbeat was 171. H got to record some of the heartbeat on his phone, and he's been listening to it constantly. We had to listen to it at least 10 times while we were laying in bed last night. I'm so glad that he is this excited, but I'm not feeling much emotionally yet. He is one proud daddy already.
Still sick all the time and will be thankful when second tri gets here and I (hopefully) feel much more normal.

Hey GKU! Loving all of the recent BFPs!!!
I can't believe that DD is one month now!! So crazy!!! She is doing great and growing like a weed. I also can't believe how strong she is. She's been strong since birth, but she is growing stronger than I'm ready for! I am just so happy with our little rainbow.

**siggy warning**
TTC #1 starting July 2013, RE last 2014 First Angel baby lost July 11, 2014 IUI #1 with injections successful: EDD 11/24/15 Rainbow baby DD born 11/14/15 TTC#2 October 2016 Second Angel baby lost Jan 5, 2017
Feeling so unloved missed the call to the reunion thread. Lol jk (but a little serious lol)
I am 9 weeks today! And I have booped out a little bit this past week which I am giggly excited about lol. DH was super cute yesterday and kissed me good bye when he left for work (I was in bed) and told me he loved me and then put his hand on my "belly" and whispered, "I love you too," which made me swoon basically lol.
No real symptoms to report other than that I am noticing I have to pee a lot more often now. Also, my RN told me that our next appointment after the holidays we get to use the Doppler to hear the heart beat!! I am ridiculously excited - AND - we are officially half way to our first ultrasound which I am also ridiculously looking forward to. Last but not least, I am officially unable to wear my pants and bras. I am struggling through the last week of school alternating two pairs of leggings and squashing my boobs into my loosest sports bra and I will hopefully be able to get into the city over the holidays to buy some stuff that fits.
Love and miss you all!!
Ray
ETA: literally *just* had a coworker figure out I am pregnant. Apparently I absent-mindedly had my hand on my stomach and she put it together with nausea and exhaustion I've had previous weeks. She caught me off guard lol
I missed the reunion call too Ray. We can be outcast together. Although I was also playing "survive my migraine while baby screams in between cluster feeding" so there's that too.
Ellie will be one month old tomorrow. I'm amazed, it still feels like we just left the hospital. She's such a sweet baby and usually pretty chill, just happy with snuggles.
Hello everyone! This is my first outside baby grad check-in. Isadora is 2 weeks 5 days old (she was a thanksgiving surprise 10 days before her EDD).
::swoon::
I love this name so hard. Congrats!
Thanks! We've been calling her Izzy, which I also love, but I think we're going to try to break that habit because everyone then assumes she's an Isabel or Isabella.

@ismellbooks, I gained almost 60lbs during my pregnancy with DS. I ate correctly 80% of the time, kept up with exercising, and had to explain to my midwife over and over that I wasn't doing anything wrong. DS came out at 6.5lbs and a skinny monkey. Sigh. And then I found out that my mom's side of the family has a thing about getting huge during pregnancy so yeah. It sucks to get the short end of the stick in that area.
Sparkly, If it makes you feel better, I was effacing rapidly and dilating consistently after I lost my MP at 34 weeks with DS (and he was low low low) and he still didn't come until 40+2. My midwife was checking every week, which she rarely does, and telling me her schedule and already had the doula group notified because she didn't think I'd make it past 36 weeks.

Totally forgot today was Tuesday!
Hey! E was 5 months last week. She has discovered new ways to make noise and giggles almost constantly. We had a safe trip this weekend and we also got her baptized the day after the funeral. Thank you all for your condolences last week.

I only remembered to stop by today because of the fuckery on the main board! We're headed towards 4 months and she's getting so big! We're in the middle of moving and packing but she's not much help so far. I'm so excited at all the recent BFPs and here are some of her best faces for your viewing pleasure.

Hi GKU! Thanks for the tag, Rama! Your news has brightened my day!! I am 27 weeks today, hello third tri!! I still feel pretty good and am excited to have a sub in place and a plan for when to leave work. Had an ultrasound with the MFM yesterday, and baby girl is measuring ahead, and is sooooo low they couldn't get accurate head measurements. I really hope I don't have to birth a gigantic head! The tech turned on the 3D system and we got a peek of baby's face. She has my nose, lol.

Knowing (1) that there's not really much of anything I can do about it, and (2) that it's all only temporary is the only thing that gets me through some days. Then again, it's a double edged sword because knowing there's nothing I can really do about it is exceptionally difficult for my control freak self to accept. My poor husband, I had a full scale meltdown on Sunday night. But I'm taking it all a day at a time, and doing the best I can, which is all anyone can ask for.
My whole pregnancy was basically one giant meltdown, as you know. The uncontrollable weight gain is probably one of the hardest parts of being pregnant as far as I'm concerned. Big hugs to you.

Hi friends,
I'm at 22w3d and doing well. In our last ultrasound, baby girl wouldn't cooperate, so we didn't get a nice, clear face shot or 3D view. My OB wants to do a 30w ultrasound based upon a wonky hormone reading in my first blood test. Evidently the blood result *could* indicate a placental blood flow issue, but I am 99% confident that everything is fine. The baby is on-track for growth.
I am still sleeping a lot but can make it through the day without a nap at this point. DS knows about his baby sister now and is over the moon with happiness. He always wants to give belly kisses and hugs.
Always stalking my GKU lovelies and hope to see a bunch of holiday BFPs. Love you gals.

Here's one of my first personal pics

Could your son be any cuter in that pic with you, I am all smiles at a loss for words over here! xoxo
we're doing ok here. I'm at 32+3. We finished our prenatal classes last night. Weekend was spent getting the nursery a little more set up, still lots to do in it though. I'm looking forward to getting through the holidays since there is a lot happening and I tire very easily. Not to mention get crabby quite fast. sleeping is touch and go at this point. Some nights are the worst (I started actually not looking forward to bed) but last night miraculously was amazing, I slept through the entire night without even waking up to pee (that I remember)

I had a baby!
I was induced at 37 + 4 due to high blood pressure. After 48 hrs of no eating (boo!) and 60ish hours in the hospital, Miss Ada arrived at 5:55pm on 12/5/15. 8lbs 3oz, 20 inches long.
I apparently lost a bunch of blood and ended up with a fever of 103 after delivery, so we both had to have IV antibiotics. It took forever for my milk to come in, so she became jaundiced and lost a little too much weight and we've been dealing with that in the meantime. All in all, it could have been much more complicated and we're not much worse for wear (plus, she is the best shit ever!) so I can't complain.
Without further ado:
Always lurking and crossing everything for BFPs!!!

Hey, lovelies! 34 weeks here. I had a preterm labor scare last night. Luckily, I still have an inside baby, but I'm already dilating. At this point, my goal is to make it to Christmas.
