Thank you for the tags teraiin and onesweetworld Sparkly, your girls are just too sweet. Enjoy every minute! singingsea, so happy you got the good news! queenofcats, good luck with the teething madamewaffles, seems like you have a great team together.
I am doing well. Artie is nursing like a champ and is a very calm baby, for now! Very much unlike his sister. The holidays went pretty smoothly for us and im just loving being a mom to two babies. Hope y'all had a good Christmas and im sending y'all lots of hugs and BFP vibes.

Hi GKU! I'm 10w6d, not much new to report! I purchased my first pair of maternity pants for work, but I'm trying to hold off on wearing them because #ego. I'm so anxious for the NT scan in two weeks -- mostly so we can see baby again & because we'll go public on Facebook after. I think things will feel really, really REAL once the whole world knows.
Thinking of y'all, can't wait for all the BFPs 2016 will bring!
Number One: Born 06.16.2009 BFP: 01.17.2014 / MC 02.05.2014 BFP: 03.08.2014 / MMC: 05.07.2014 Dx: Partial Molar/GTD. Benched until 01.2015 Number Two: Born 07.22.2016
35 weeks tomorrow! Although I don't foresee this baby coming early if it did it could be here in a month. Yikes! Starting to get nervous about having two kids now.
I had an appointment today. Measuring on track and heart rate in the 150's. I was hoping they would do the gbs test since I didn't have my toddler with me for once but they didn't so that will be in two weeks and then I'm down to every week.
I picked up a few clearance boy outfits and a couple girl ones, some newborn and size 1/2 diapers and gas drops.
I've got some more small stuff (gripe water, new pump tubing) to pick up and do (washing clothes and car seat cover) but no big stuff (other than installing he base and making freezer meals).
Braxton hicks are a multiple time a day occurrence, I'm up a lot at night, am am out of breath just walking up from the basement.
I'm done with work after this week. I'd hoped to go back to 3 days in May (instead of 4 with a 5th once a month) but it looks like my options are one day or four at this point. And. 45 hours a week with a 2 1/2 year old, 1 1/2 year old and a 3 month old seems overwhelming at this point so I don't know what to do yet. Financially I need to work more than one day but my sanity is worth something too I think.

Sparkly CONGRATS lady!!!! She's beautiful! I'm in love with your last picture. It needs to be framed.
Guise. I'm 18w2d and officially half baked (for twins). This is blowing my mind. I still can't believe I'm pregnant most days. I've started feeling movement, although MH can't feel it yet. Our A/S is MONDAY and I'm so ready to find out what the two sexes are!!!!!!! Other than that, nothing new. Sciatica is no joke, I threw up last week for the first time ever (yay never ending nausea), and I already feel like a buffalo.
And by coercion from pippacricket , here is my bump picture from this week. I blend into the wall because MH took the picture without telling me to change my gray shirt against the gray wall. #neveragain
ETA: I also just wanted to give out extra squishy boob hugs for the past week. I remember how hard the holidays were for us last year, and there was not a lot of hope or joy in me. Love you guise, and just wanted to say I still have all the hope for you guise and for all the BFPs in 2016.

HI GKU! I have been the worst grad lately. For shame. Maddie is 11 weeks old! She went to day care a few times week before last so she could (read: so I could) get used to it since I go back to work on Monday. Boo. I can't believe my leave is already over. She isn't a super smiley baby, but when she does smile it's adorable. She's been chatty lately and can roll over from tummy to back. She sleeps for one good 5 hour stretch usually from 9-2 or 10-3 and then she's up every 3 hours after that. Hopefully that stretch gets longer!
Here she is on Christmas!
I promise I'll get better at TCFing when I go back to work

13w5d still on pelvic rest with no exercise. It doesn't matter what I do I still bleed regularly. The Doppler has been super helpful on my mind. Happy to officially be in second tri now.
Hi! I haven't been here in ages, but C is now 21 months and such a busy guy. He's getting into everything and talking up a storm these days, and I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around having a nearly 2 year old. He LOVED Christmas so much and likes to wish random strangers "may kissmass!"
We're still TFAS and not having much luck. We've been at it for over a year now but C is still nursing so I suspect that's not helping. Oh well.
Anyway, here's my boy refusing to sleep. As per usual.
Sending happy thoughts to all grads and BFP wishes to all my GKU lovelies.
I am at 24 weeks and things are going well. DH are on a little toddler-free trip to a national park. It's probably my last trip for year since I'll be a bundle of nerves traveling with two children and a dog.
The baby has been working on kicks and punches, but she is still letting me sleep pretty smoothly and I can't complain. I have moments of anxiety where I feel so nervous taking care of a new life.
Hope you all enjoyed the holidays and I hope that you have a beautiful new year.

I have to share DS's broken heart at finding out he was getting two sisters. He was convinced they were boys. vimeo.com/150321689 Also i have to share that my MIL asked if we were going to do a big gender reveal and H says "Like when they announce they're trans? I think we'll let them decide to announce that when they are older." I laughed and MIL was very confused.

Hiya GKU!
32w6d here and just trucking along. Had my OB appointment yesterday and everything is still on track. I have one more 2 week appointment and then we go to every week! Shit's getting real. The next few weekends are going to be hectic. MH is getting his wisdom teeth out next weekend, my baby shower is the following week, and then our birthing class is the week after that. I've had multiple "talks" with LO about how she cannot come until at least 37 weeks. Fx she listens to me.

Oh my I feel like I've been hibernating a lot! I'm mobile so I can't tag everyone I want to congratulate and send love to. I also have no pic this week, just picture a whale....a whale stuck in the sofa. Were 34weeks 4 days today. Which makes me freak the fuck out... I've been nesting a lot, little mans nursery is almost done, I'll AW pics next week. The only problem Is the minute I stop moving my hips and legs rebel and then I can't move. These bursts of energy are very deceptive. I want to go shopping today, but I'm debating if getting out of pyjamas is worth it. I go back to work from holidays on Tuesday and then only 3 weeks left to work! My next appointment is next Wednesday, hoping all is well at that one, I'm starting to get nervous I'll go early, but there's no reason to really think that. Nights suck so bad, I tend to wake up at midnight for a snack and stay up about an hour with discomfort. Other than that I guess its all normal?
Married 10/10/10! TTC Baby #1 since April 2014 BFP Oct 16 - EP terminated Nov 6 2014 Off the Bench January 2015! BFP #2 June 1 2015 - EDD Feb 12 2016! Baby Boy born 15th February 2016!
So many beautiful outside babies and sweet growing bumps! I'm 33 weeks, 3 days, which is WILD and makes me feel twitch-y and hive-ish if I think about it too much.
As far as I know, everything is healthy and progressing as it should be. 3rd trimester has been the "worst" of any of them so far, but it's still not much for me to complain about. I miss wine (I'm kind of amazed at myself for surviving almost 2 weeks of family visiting without any of it or a mental breakdown), sleeping through the night, and being able to tie my shoes. Little man is still name-less, but I think we are getting closer to one. We're about 85% done the nursery and have our birthing class next weekend. It's crazy to think that we are about to have our last full calendar month without a babe (hopefully)! [
