Hello everyone. 

1. How many weeks along are you? 21w2d
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? GREAT appointment and scan.  Baby is measuring perfect, heart, lungs, spine, and brain all look great, all limbs are accounted for, and you can officially put me on Team PINK! 
3. How are you feeling lately? Tired and sore from moving.  Still trying to finish up the old house.  
4. QOTW: is anyone hosting a shower/sprinkle for you? Do you have any big purchases that you need to make before LO’s arrival (crib, etc)? I dont' know who will be hosting but someone is. (I never had one with my DS, that is a long story) I have nothing, absolutely nothing yet.  I think a crib will be first thing we purchase.  Hopefully in a couple weeks.

Now that I am more regular and confident I'll offer to take over!

1. How many weeks along are you? 11 weeks
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? Seems like I have had nuchal in tap forever lol! August 20th will be here soon!
3. How are you feeling lately? Better, if I don't exhaust myself in good days I seems to have more of them. Vomited almost a record yesterday- but today was good!!!
4. QOTW: is anyone hosting a shower/sprinkle for you? Do you have any big purchases that you need to make before LO’s arrival (crib, etc)?
No shower or sprinkle, we are hosting a combo gender reveal/ birthday. Want to get double jogger or one with stand for DD... Haven't figured that out yet... Got time though at least I guess

Thanks so much @Momarazzi007‌ - appreciate it!

Jeffreysmom24

Thanks again @Momarazzi007‌ for taking over the check in starting next week! I am sure that you know this but wanted to also remind you to post the link to the checkin on the 2IF board.

1. 30 weeks
2. Next appointment is week after next. We had the elective 3d/4d ultrasound last Thursday and it was great! So neat to see LO again and to compare it to the 4d ultrasound picture we got of Jeffrey two years ago!
3. Feeling good, just getting a little harder to get a decent night's sleep.
4. I accidentally found out that my 2 sisters are throwing me a couples shower next month! Very excited about that! We have all of the big stuff, just need random things like a new bottle warmer, sound machine etc.

chrissynena

Hi!!

1. 22w1d
2. Ultrasound on Monday with MFM.
3. Feeling a little less tired this week. Have been sleeping a bit better, but the middle if the night leg cramps have begun. Yuck!
4. My SIL said something about a diaper party after the babies are born, but I'm not sure. Def no shower for us. Ummm lol we have a lot to buy. 2 more cribs, a new dresser/changing table, more monitors.....some other things but those are the biggies. Oh and a double stroller.

topaz7777

1. How many weeks along are you? 5 and some change
2. Any medical updates (appointments, ultrasounds, tests/results, etc.)? Beta 3 was 2280, 1st U/S is on the 22nd
3. How are you feeling lately? Started to have moments of nausea but nothing significant yet
4. QOTW: is anyone hosting a shower/sprinkle for you? Do you have any big purchases that you need to make before LO’s arrival (crib, etc)? Doubt I'll have a shower or sprinkle, think I still have everything I need from DD.

cerad5

1. 30.5 weeks
2. Next appt is just a regular checkup at 32 weeks.
3. Definitely still an adjustment getting back to work after being off all summer. So much harder to get ally water in. But I've been having more Braxton hicks so I know I need to try harder.
4. My cousin is throwing me a sprinkle this weekend. Just my female cousins and my aunts. Small little celebration. And my work will have a shower since it's my first child while working there, but I've expressed to my friends there that we aren't registering and don't need much. So they are doing a diaper shower. We are pretty much done with the nursery and big things. We just need things like a new white noise machine, diapers, and some new nursing bras.

Thanks to @Jeffreysmom24‌ for all the check ins and to @Momarazzi007‌ for taking over.

Mommalawyer

1. 12w (as of tomorrow)
2. We did first trimester blood work screen last Friday. Also did counsyl blood test (negative) and maternit21 blood test which also came back negative. We have NT scan tomorrow, to complete 1st trimester testing. But it sounds like we have a healthy baby.
3. Feeling good. Still tired. Exhausted actually.
4. Not sure about the shower/sprinkle. We found out through the maternit21 that we are having a boy, which we have nothing of. It's a bit bittersweet knowing it's my last baby.....

My husband bought new hard drive virus was for regular computer not laptop. He has reordered it and I will be up and running this weekend. If someone wants to do one in mean time I can take over the following week? Sorry about the issues, I literally had just finished it ready to post when everything crashed

No, that's fine- glad you are getting it fixed this weekend! Just wanted to check - I was actually getting worried that something had happened with you so it is good to see your post!
