Rants/raves/symptoms?
Still pretty tired all the time. Yesterday I had a bit of an energy burst though and had a great gym workout and still put DD to bed, did the dishes and made her lunch without falling on my face. Win!

Starting to feel more regular movement, but it's sporadic and light. (Anterior placenta club).
GTKY: How did you and your SO meet, and how long have you been together and/or married?
We met halfway through sophomore year of college. I had just transferred from a different school, and one of the first girl friends I met there told me to come to a party. One of her friends there was her guy friend from HS, and she sort of set us up. He and I hit it off right away -- read: we made out. And now, almost 14 years later, here we are. We dated a while, lived together a while, then got engaged. We have been married almost 7 years.
Symptoms are difficulty sleeping (so uncomfortable already!), being hungry ALL. THE. TIME., tons of vaginal discharge (sorry for the visual), and breathlessness. Also wake up with carpal tunnel in my right hand.
Nothing baby related until the 22nd, which is FINALLY my A/S!
My husband and I met online two years ago. We've been married for 20 weeks and 3 days...(people always love to do the math when they find out I'm pregnant)
Also, I keep trying to add a gif but I'm having issues doing it on my phone. GRR.
Rants/raves/symptoms: Everything is pretty par for the course (and the same as last week). Some aches and pains. I can feel him moving around a lot more now which is so awesome.
Anything baby related to report: Had my a/s follow up yesterday and he's totally perfect so far. Also did the GD test so we will see how that goes.
GTKY: My cousin introduced us when I went to visit her once, a couple months later he found an excuse to come with her to see me and the rest is history. We've been together 6 years, married two in June

Rants/raves/symptoms?
Pretty tired with quite a bit of back pain, but done with the stomach bug that invaded my house this weekend, so that's a plus! I broke out the maternity support belt this morning, and that's helping my lower back pain some!
Anything baby-related to report?
Feeling more regular movement but still waiting to feel it externally.

We actually met through match.com. My brother met my SIL through their service, and my good friend at the time met her husband through them as well and made me set up a profile. I had only been on the site for a month and had planned on letting my subscription expire, when he messaged me on my 30th day. Luckily I'm naive and didn't realize that the web site would just charge my credit card for another month unless I went through the process of canceling my membership, so we messaged back and forth for a couple of weeks before meeting for our first date. We did dinner and a movie and hit it off! We moved in together after 9 months, got engaged after 2-1/2 years, and we'll have been married 4 years this June.
21 weeks! The size of a baseball hat (weird) and a Pomegranate.
Rants/raves/symptoms?
I pee every 2 hours like clockwork and heartburn has officially started. I hope this little nugget has as much hair as their sister did. Makes the heartburn seem worth it
Anything baby-related to report?
We had our 20 week scan yesterday
Baby is measuring perfectly. We toured the first of the two hospitals we have the option to deliver at yesterday as well. I liked it more than I was anticipating based on opinions I have received from others who have delivered in the area. We tour hospital number 2 on Thursday. We also meet with our doula on Sunday to discusses our wishes and don't wants for the delivery along with lots of child birth education and pain management techniques.
GTKY: How did you and your SO meet, and how long have you been together and/or married?
The very short version is that his best friend dated my best friend. He saw my picture on facebook and asked her who I was. We have been together for 4.5 years and married for 3.
Rants/raves/symptoms? Starting to have a bit more energy which is awesome. Belly finally popped and I actually feel pregnant now. Baby moves pretty regularly which is nice. I'm also starting to feel hungry now, the ravenous pregnant kind of hungry.
Anything baby-related to report? Checkup with the midwife tomorrow.
GTKY: How did you and your SO meet, and how long have you been together and/or married? He was dating a friend of mine in HS. We started dating a few months after they broke up. We've now been together for almost 15 years and married for 6 and a half!
23 - I think it was a chinchilla/grapefruit
Rants/raves/symptoms?
Tired. Also, pregnancy makes me a super light sleeper, so anytime DH rolls over I wake up. Luckily the aches have mellowed out for a bit, but I know they will be back.

GTKY: How did you and your SO meet, and how long have you been together and/or married?
We met at my job. A friend of his lived next door, so he kept making up reasons to come to my work until he got up the courage to ask me out. I was actually leaving that job and moving 3 hours away about 2 weeks from when he asked me. We hit it off and I moved back about a month later,we moved in together and have been livin' the dream for almost 6 years. Engaged for 3 now
Rants/raves/symptoms? Gall bladder attacks, back pain, sciatic. All of the pains.
Anything baby-related to report? Follow up anatomy scan on Thursday for detailed heart views and monthly OB apppointment on Friday afternoon!
GTKY: How did you and your SO meet, and how long have you been together and/or married? We met at a pizza place in high school on homecoming weekend. We've been together for 9 years this year, married for 3 this fall. High school sweethearts.
Rants/raves/symptoms? Lots of RLP from walking around so much on vacation. Also feeling much more fatigued than I used to be (pre-pregnancy)
Anything baby-related to report? I felt a real, honest to goodness set of kicks on Sunday night when I was reading to the baby! It was totally different from the flutters I usually get. Also we've gotten the baby a cute London onesie and will be getting a few other things while here
GTKY: How did you and your SO meet, and how long have you been together and/or married? We worked together in college at a fried chicken restaurant. DH was a cook and I was a deliver driver. He asked me to go over to his apt after work every day for a few months and finally I agreed. We've been together for almost 11 years now and married for 5.5.
22 weeks. Papaya, corn on the cob, Guinea pig

Feeling really good. Only problem is bloating/constipation and lower back pain
Anything baby-related to report?
Feeling more movement from the baby and getting excited to start the nursery!
GTKY: How did you and your SO meet, and how long have you been together and/or married?
We met in a math class in college. We both went to school for elementary education - I am still a teacher, my husband now works for a local brewery after teaching for a few years. We have been together for a little over 12 years, and married for almost 6 years.
