Any new symptoms? just lots of "growing" pains in the belly

Any appointments recently or coming up? How did it go? AS last week went well. I had a low placenta, not enough to be considered even a partial previa, but she said she wanted to rescan in six weeks to make sure it had resolved.

What are you most looking forward to/most nervous about with this pregnancy? Everything that we have to do is hitting me at once! I tried to start my registry and got so overwhelmed.

Any new symptoms? Belly tightness from growing. Waking up more at night from being uncomfortable. 

Any appointments recently or coming up? How did it go? We had our 20 week and baby looked great! We have our follow up with the OB with the "official" DL on Monday. Really excited just to hear baby's heartbeat and learn more about him/her!

What are you most looking forward to/most nervous about with this pregnancy? We are starting to nest, so doing the nursery will be really fun. I am really conscious of everything that I do right now, so I tend to get anxious if I hurt them or not by an activity that I did...so I am looking forward to not having that worry anymore...at least within my womb  

Questions for FTM, or STM+? Anyone have any good recommendations for a pregnancy pillow?

GTKY: What one thing do you really want but can’t afford yet (not necessarily baby related)? I don't really want anything right now. Just a healthy baby

Any new symptoms? I just hurt. I've felt stretching pains and back pains.

Any appointments recently or coming up? How did it go? I have to have another scan because they have some concerns about some cramping I'm having and want to regularly check it. So that's on 7/23. I had a massage yesterday I know it's not an official appointment but it was wonderful

What are you most looking forward to/most nervous about with this pregnancy? Just not feeling like a more broken version of myself, I miss my old self and energy. I know I'll be caring for a baby but my body won't be using energy on the pregnancy.

GTKY: What one thing do you really want but can’t afford yet (not necessarily baby related)? A fun car! Probably not practical with a baby on the way, but I've always liked the idea of something sporty

How far along are you? 21 and something 

Any new symptoms? Nothing super new, lower back pain, continued heartburn...

Any appointments recently or coming up? How did it go? AS with a Dr follow-up last week.  Baby is measuring 2 weeks ahead so I'll have to have another scan at 28 weeks so see what changes in size (if any) have happened.

What are you most looking forward to/most nervous about with this pregnancy? Still birth but recently, it has been moving alot and husband was able to feel it the other night so that was pretty cool.

GTKY: What one thing do you really want but can’t afford yet (not necessarily baby related)? A second bedroom... and goats.

@enchu37, I ordered a big U-shaped pillow from Amazon and it both annoys me and makes me very happy.  I feel very snug and cushy in it but when I wake up in the middle of the night, sometimes I feel like I'm tangled in it.  I'm just a tossy-turny dramatic sleeper.
