I love your updates @led! That announcement is such a good way to go.
Aw, sorry about the heartburn @ismellbooks But yay for your H to feel baby boy! Mine didn't get to feel him until a few hours before we went to the hospital to have DS so he's looking forward to baby #2 whenever it happens.
swivelchair5, I can't believe you're almost finished baking your baby! Time has flown.
kellybenelly83, The last month is so hard and always seems to crawl by until labor starts. Hopefully, you will get some rest soon.

jags8, your nursery walls look amazing! Nice work and color choices!
Hi friends! I'm just hanging out here in the 22nd week. Things are kind of boring with no new developments or appointments to report. No pics to share, even! I'm still enjoying the movement of our baby and starting to sing to them in the shower - apparently that's something they'll respond to or internalize or something very scientific. I have a just a bit of stiffness and backache, plus another awful cold that has my head pounding. I have found myself wanting to punch lots of people square in the throat - from the lady who walked too close to me on the sidewalk to my male coworker who tried to tell me I shouldn't go to an out-of-town bachelorette next month. (Instead of the throat-punch he deserved, I told him "Don't tell me what to do!" So that's where things are...)
Loving the bump and baby pics as usual and sending all my love!

jags8 we are doing a HP nursery too. H got me the Weasley wand set for Christmas that will go in the twins' room. In honor of rablissful's New Years resolution I figure I'll do my update in all Supernatural gifs. How I'm feeling:
When I see anything sappy.
To the coworker who said she didn't know I was pregnant and just thought I was getting fat.
How I sometimes feel looking in the mirror.
How I look when DS goes to bed because of increased libido.
How I feel about all you ladies and the support here and the other boards through all this craziness.
Bonus gif because it's my fav, and my first GKU bump pic.

Hi GKU!
I'm 22.5 weeks along. We found out today that we're having a boy! I'm excited for my son to have a brother! Baby does have an echogenic focus which is a soft marker for DS, but our risk is so low from the pentascreen that I'm not sure if we'll proceed with NIPT testing. I still wish everything had been normal, of course, even if it is statistically probably nothing.
He is still head up, which is pretty normal at this point, but I'm getting nervous that he won't flip at all just like DS and I'll have to have another C-section.
Today I finally bought some clothes for this baby as he is due at the opposite time of year as DS.
Thank you thelittleredm and shadesofgold! It was a multiple-weekend ordeal, but I'm so relieved it's done and turned out okay! housecarder eeeek the Weasley wands idea is so neat! Obviously please show me all your HP nursery stuff when you have it!
Hi everyone! I sort of disappeared right before I GKU, so I figured I might as well pop onto the Grad thread and post an official update.
I am 13 weeks tomorrow, it's been a very eventful first trimester! I found out at 6 weeks that I had an 8cm dermoid cyst on my left ovary, and then on December 15th (while we were across the country visiting the IL's) the cyst caused my ovary to twist 3 times. I had emergency surgery to remove the cyst, spent a couple nights in the hospital, and now I'm almost back to 100%. Aside from that I've been dealing with all day nausea and late trimester puking which is just lovely. Anyways, here's the most recent bump pic. I feel like I'm already so big, but am excited to have a bump
Anyways, I miss you ladies and am constantly popping in to lurk! It's so exciting to see all of the recent BFPs, and I'm keeping everything crossed that there are many more coming very soon

We've been collecting the wands for ourselves for years, but only the Weasley's will go in the nursery. So far we just have a few HP pics and a Hedwig pillow for my rocker. Now that we know the sexes and the holidays are over I think we will focus on decorating the nursery. I'm paranoid I'll go into labor super early and noting will be done.

Hi GKU. Whaddup? 16 weeks today. Getting antsy for the OB visit next week, but I have broken out my doppler and found the heartbeat a couple times now. Symptoms have pretty much waned to nothing other than an ever-expanding belly, although I still think it just looks like I've eaten too many bacon cheeseburgers. Watching you 24/7 and hoping for moar BFPs.
I can't believe jags8 is in 3rd trimester and wanderingheart is halfway through her pregnancy. Man oh man where has the time gone?
jags8 you have to share pics of the Harry Potter nursery when it's done! I'm obsessed with all things HP!!!
I don't even know! I'm kinda freaking out! And of course I will share all the photos of the HP nursery! My SIL already got me a "mischief managed" sign that I can't wait to hang up!
Our plan is a HP nursery too!! I can't wait to see pictures of yours!!!

Hay guise! Had my ultrasound today. Little one is measuring 6 weeks 2 days +/- a couple days and I didn't expect it but I got to hear the heartbeat! 116bpm

Hey ladies!!! Noah is 13w6d and is the happiest little guy ever. We've adjusted to me going back to work and try to take as much advantage of my time off as possible. Still going strong on breastfeeding, though I've felt like throwing in the towel a few times. This was from Thursday. My little stud. Still rooting for all of you!!

Sup GKU! Loved playing with some of you on the GG thread. Still lurking you people on the reg.
AFM, 19w2d here. Had our anatomy scan last week. Nugget is healthy but stubborn like his/her mama & didn't let us get all of the necessary shots. Including the sex. So I go back on 2/3 for a follow up. I have an early glucose screen next week, yay PCOS!!!
Here is a bump pic from today (work bathroom what up)

jags8, LadyNymeria, housecarder, you have just opened up a whole new world for me - I had no idea HP nurseries were a thing, and now I've spent 30 minutes scrolling through Etsy.

I'll be 21w tomorrow! I still can't get used to the fact that we're having a girl. But I'm so so so happy that all seems well so far. H's family should be finding out today, so I'm kind of nervous/anxious about that. We mailed the onesie (says "promoted to big cousin May 2016") with the gifts for SILs baby shower to his mom so she'll see it first. But it should be arriving today!!!
Over the last few days I've also started feeling movement sporadically! So a super exciting past week!
