How far along are you? How big is baby?

Any upcoming appointments this week?

Symptoms? Cravings? Aversions?

QOTW: As your body is changing what's different about carrying for lo?

What's on your mind this week?

15w6d. Baby is the size of an orange.

Symptoms made a resurgence this week, But seem to be easing again. I've been feeling more glitters and even one good bump this week. No real cravings or aversions.

No upcoming appointments (boy I'm boring this week!)

My ever growing bump seems to be getting in the way already. I've already had to change the way I carry dd and how I hold her when I'm rocking her at night. I can't imagine what it's going to be like in a few months!

Same old same old this week. Not much new to report. Still staying about the same things. Worrying about our anatomy scan already. We want to know the gender but I'm terrified it will be another boy and, after losing our son, I worry that I'll be anxious fort the rest of this pregnancy if it is. There's am irrational voice in me that says I just can't make healthy boys, although I know that makes no logical sense.

@lrichmond86 Big huge hugs!

Thanks ladies. I kind of feel guilty hoping for another girl, but it's like I have gender anxiety. It will be fine. I just don't want to stress more than necessary.

Don't feel bad! This isn't anything like the gender disappointment idiocy....you have very legitimate reasons at the root of your anxiety. DH and I have no reason to expect any health issues with future children, and I already feel kind of sick when I think about a future A/S. Hoping the time passes quickly for you and it's nothing but good news!

14 weeks 3 days, baby is the size of a lemon. No appointments this week. My pregnancy heart burn/acid reflux is back in full force. But I still have some of the prescription meds from last time so hopefully that will get better. Nothing else much to say, belly is getting bigger. Most of our friends know but not everyone. I haven't put it on Facebook yet, I don't know why the hesitation. I guess I'm afraid that people will think its crazy of us to have another baby so quickly and I just don't want to hear everyone's opinion on it.

@lrichmond86 HUGSSS!!

23 weeks.  Baby is... huge.  Grapefruit!!

So.... nothing new.  Everything is the same.  I will probably be asking my OB about a therapist and a chiropractor this Friday at my next appt.  Woo!

I have to hold LO differently now.. and sometimes I have trouble lifting her from certain angles because of my back.  Nothing huge.

Yep.. I've been so busy lately I haven't really thought about being pregnant much..
