Finding Out
Baby is the size of a(n):
Raspberry / Jelly bean / gummy bear
Upcoming appointments:
Bloodwork tomorrow. 28 October.
How are you feeling?
I’ve got a hormone hangover going on most of the time thanks to progesterone but the nausea seems under control thanks to the new meds I started Friday.
Raves/Rants:
I’ve been so miserable that I’ve been depending on MH to keep the house functioning. He’s doing a terrible job. There’s toys everywhere, dishes in the sink, a million loads of laundry. I’ve got to get myself together so I can start fixing my house. 🤦🏻♀️
Questions:
None.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to wind down at the end of the day?
I really enjoy a good bath, a crappy romance novel or watching something on HGTV or Food Network or a new season of Queer Eye.
EDD: May 14th
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): Gummy Bear.
Upcoming appointments: US on Friday and I'm so nervous. I'm so nervous about vanishing twins. Praying I still have two healthy babies in there.
How are you feeling? Pretty good, which makes me nervous. Still tired, still bloated, nipples still hurt and I have some food aversions. But otherwise I'm doing okay.
Raves/Rants: I'm off work this week and I'm so happy! It's getting really hard to hide the bloat and I'm really hoping to get to 13 weeks before I say anything. So I feel like this is a week I can hide. 😁
Questions: Has anyone else noticed their symptoms starting to get better? And has anyone been able to find HB's on a doppler? I don't want to try until after Friday so I don't panic if I can't find them. But it would be so reassuring.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to wind down at the end of the day? Pj's and the couch. And takeout so I don't have to do anything.

Baby is the size of a(n): Denise’s pygmy sea horse
Upcoming appointments: Oct 30
How are you feeling? So tired - the insomnia is tough right now. Also almost constantly nauseous though haven’t thrown up.
Raves/Rants: None.
Questions: None.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to wind down at the end of the day? Read, play board games with H, watch Netflix/Prime shows, watch H play computer games (and give him a hard time)
@lajoliedreamer yeah the constant seasickness was pretty awful. I hope you get some relief soon.
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): two little kidney beans
Upcoming appointments: had our last ultrasound at the fertility clinic today and was graduated. We have our first appointment and ultrasound with our regular OB on the 21st.
How are you feeling? Constantly nauseous but no actual vomiting, and uncontrollably tired. I’m hoping that starting to ween off the progesterone will help with that
Raves/Rants: I made it through being a bridesmaid in a family wedding without anyone except the bride and her sister knowing (I actually told them right when I found out)
Questions:
GTKY: What is your favorite way to wind down at the end of the day? Well, normally taking a bath, but I’m currently restricted from that, and it’s killing me!
EDD: 5/14
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: I can’t wait to find out!
Baby is the size of a(n): wild strawberry
Upcoming appointments: next Monday
How are you feeling? Currently shitting my brains out while also throwing up. So, peachy keen!
Raves/Rants: I definitely look pregnant and people at work know. So I just need to do a little more shopping and then I’ll have my winter wardrobe set. My plan is stretchy jeans and leggings, cozy sweaters.
Questions:
GTKY: What is your favorite way to wind down at the end of the day? Tv and a snuggle
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): Cherry/Pecan
Upcoming appointments: 10/11
How are you feeling? Meh. We made hamburgers for dinner and the kitchen currently smells like burnt hamburger grease. DH says he can't really smell it, of course. I really want a frozen lemonade and a snack cake but neither of those things are in the house.
Raves/Rants: Rave - I finally have an OB appointment. Rant - I'm super nervous about said appointment. I just want good news.
Questions: No.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to wind down at the end of the day? I like to read or mess around on the computer while nobody talks to me. #introvert
@Austenista good luck at your appointment!
@ruby696 FX for a perfect US on Friday! Until then, have an awesome time at Disney!! I can find the HB on my doppler now, usually within 5-10 minutes now that I know where LO hangs out. My uterus is anteverted though so I have always been able to find it early.
@bender29 Glad you had a great appointment yesterday!
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): gummybear
Upcoming appointments: 10/30
How are you feeling? A little better so I can't complain.
Raves/Rants: Looooooong day at work yesterday so I was MIA. Tonight after work I have a 4 hour round trip drive with my toddler in the car. We refinanced the house we just moved from (planning to rent it out) since rates are so low and our closing is tonight. This is when it would be nice to have grandparents or family nearby....
Questions: Nope
GTKY: What is your favorite way to wind down at the end of the day? A nice hot shower, comfy clothes, and the couch with a book or TV.
EDD: May 13th

Baby is the size of a(n): peanut m&m
Upcoming appointments: next OB visit is 10/22
How are you feeling? a little nauseous, headache, extra tired, and sore nipples but usually not all at once so still surviving ok
Raves/Rants: Loving this fall weather in Illinois but wishing I had time to actually sit and enjoy some fresh air while reading a book or watching tv just relaxing
Questions: none
GTKY: What is your favorite way to wind down at the end of the day? usually reading or wasting time on my phone mindlessly scrolling FB or googling random things that I've been thinking of through the day
@bananapanda maybe you’ll get a break this weekend to enjoy fall for a bit!
I can’t wait until I have old enough children to play board games with!
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): green olive
Upcoming appointments: Oct 16th for first official prenatal appt
How are you feeling? So ridiculously tired. Slept about 9 hours last night and then felt exhausted all day. We are moving next week and do there is so much to do (plus spend time with our toddler in mornings / evenings / weekends) and I am just so tired!
Raves/Rants: see above. When will this tiredness cease?
Questions: none
GTKY: What is your favorite way to wind down at the end of the day? Sit on the couch and watch a comedy on Netflix or Hulu. We like Brooklyn 99, Parks and Rec, Fraser, etc.
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): raspberry
Upcoming appointments: US 10/17, OB 11/1
How are you feeling? Nausea to the point of not being able to do anything/ think straight, dizziness, headache, fatigue, headache, sore boobs
Raves/Rants: DH has finally brought up the subject of having a baby a few times so that makes me happy. My house is a disaster zone and I am entirely too tired/nauseous to consider cleaning/cooking.
Questions: not really a question as much as a fear over how my mom and sister are going to react to finding out we are having a baby.... over the weekend we were at a wedding and my grandma asked me if we were done having babies and I said I didn’t know and my mom chimed in that we should be.... and my sister is 8 weeks ahead of us and she’s going to be shocked also.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to wind down at the end of the day? Definitely chilling on the couch watching terrible reality tv.
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: Finding Out
Baby is the size of a(n): piece of popcorn
Upcoming appointments: Friday is my ultrasound, Monday is my first appointment with the midwife
How are you feeling? Nausea and gagging started over the last week and I am so thankful for the reassurance.
Raves/Rants: Our vacation was so great. DD did amazing with bedtime in the same hotel room. She had so much fun!
Questions: Nope
GTKY: What is your favorite way to wind down at the end of the day? What is that? LOL, I basically go go go when I get home until I go to bed. I need to start doing something though, I've been thinking about trying to meditate.
@mdfarmchick Sorry YH isn't pulling his weight around the house.
@ruby696 I have an US Friday too. Mine is at 10 am. I am so nervous. I need to order a home doppler yet, with my last pregnancy I couldn't pick it up until 13 weeks. But I had an anterior placenta and a cheap doppler. I hope you are enjoying your vacation!
@linsbins Ugh, that sounds awful. I hope you are feeling better today!
@lajoliedreamer I love Tsuro! It is so simple, but still fun. Same with Sequence! Catan is a staple when I get together with my cousins.
@adventuresawait2 I remember not feeling so tired once I hit around 14/16 weeks last time.
- BFP: 3/10/16 — Baby Girl born 11/20/16
TTC#2 April 2019@bananapanda yes, so looking forward to it coming back. I think it’s not until January, though. Cool, cool, cool cool cool.
@m6agua I hope you have a great ultrasound. That’s a good point... is there a recommended Doppler? Like is one wayyy better?
Team Finding Out/Pink/Blue/Green: finding out
Baby is the size of a(n): gummy bear (does anyone else get hungry when they read these descriptions?)
Upcoming appointments: had our first appt with the OB on Monday, so next isn't till 11/7
How are you feeling? nauseous on and off all day, and sore boobs kicked in this week
Raves/Rants: these next few days at work are going to be rough, and I'm resisting the urge to tell anyone who yells at me that they should be nice to be because I'm pregnant
Questions: As a FTM I feel like I should be doing more right now to prepare? But it feels so early to start doing anything except take care of myself and wait to get further along.
GTKY: What is your favorite way to wind down at the end of the day? I third the Brooklyn 99 love! It's one of our favorite shows. I also love trashy reality tv and reading. Right now I'm reading one of DH's favorite books for the first time, if we have a boy he wants to name him after one of the characters so I'm making sure I like the character enough to do this
