EDD: April 28

Size of an Apple Seed

Team: Pink or Blue. I'll be happy with either! Husband picked out our names for both and I'm totally in love with both names so it's difficult to be excited about one or the other because I'm excited for either! Maybe we're having m/f twins, which would be ideal! 🥰

Upcoming Appointment: Blood Draw on 9/2 to keep monitoring HCG. Possible Ultrasound following that appointment. 

Feeling: great so far! Slight nausea. Tender boobies. 

Rants/Raves: nothing yet. 

I'm so ready for fall. I'm not a warm weather person at all. I'm a January baby so I long for cooler weather. I also overheat quickly so this Midwest Summer Heat just needs to break. Give me the pretty fall colors and cozy clothes and I'll be happy!  I'm very excited about not being pregnant over the summer!

FTM/STM/TTM+: Baby #4
EDD / Weeks + Days: 4/27. 5 weeks, 4 days.
Baby is the size of a: Pencil eraser

Team blue/pink/green: My boys are 13 & 7. My daughter is 3. So it would be fun to have a little sis for her but if it’s a boy I’ll be just as thrilled!

Upcoming Appointments: First appointment and ultrasound are on 9/26 

How are you feeling?: Not great. I have debilitating HG that worsens with each pregnancy and I can feel it’s right around the corner. I’m also gassy, breasts are tender, I have no appetite, and generally already a mess!  

Rants/Raves: See rant above.

Questions: When do y’all plan on telling your family and friends that you’re pregnant?

GTKY: Are you ready for fall or still holding on to the last bits of summer?
I live in the Houston area so I’m over the heat. Bring on fall!

@kjib I always start feeling sick somewhere in week 6-7. Vomiting starts about a week after the onset of nausea and doesn’t stop until delivery for me. 😭 (I have HG)

FTM/STM/TTM+: does this mean first/second time mom? If so, I’m first time!
EDD / Weeks + Days: April 26
Baby is the size of a: sweet pea
Team blue/pink/green: just praying for a healthy baby!
Upcoming Appointments: bloodwork and second US on 9/7
How are you feeling?: very tired, sore boobs, hungry and need to pee often
Rants/Raves: none yet
Questions: when are you telling family? I’m thinking of doing it soon since they will become suspicious why I’m not having a drink or eating certain foods!
GTKY: so ready for fall, I can’t wait for cooler temps, having the windows open and getting to wear cozy clothes.

I'm dying to tell our families because it's going to be a complete shock! This is our 1st and we've been together nearly 16 years, married for 10. I'm currently almost 6 weeks and Im considering telling family around 8 weeks. I'd like to have an ultrasound first before we tell our families. So depending on when that first ultrasound is, I might wait longer than 8 weeks.

FTM/STM/TTM+: FTM ✨

EDD / Weeks + Days: 04/26/22 / 6w1d

Baby is the size of a: sweet pea

Team blue/pink/green: don’t care either way, just want them to be healthy! 💖💙

Upcoming Appointments: 09/16/22

How are you feeling?: pretty good today, but i have been tired, only want salty foods/a lot of foods don’t sound good, sore boobs on/off, a little bit of nausea and vomiting a couple times

Rants/Raves: waiting for this first doctor’s appointment is brutal! 😩

Questions: has anyone’s symptoms come and gone randomly? it makes me nervous that some days i feel symptoms and other days (like today) i don’t at all.

GTKY: Are you ready for fall or still holding on to the last bits of summer? sooo ready for fall! bring on the cooler weather and cozy vibes!

@clynnc19 symptoms can definitely come and go! Especially in the early weeks. I’m 9w1d today and I still have days that are completely nausea free (which is throwing me for a loop because at this point in my last pregnancy the nausea was constant). It’s normal to worry too, but most likely everything is fine!

FTM/STM/TTM+: FTM
EDD / Weeks + Days: April 25
Baby is the size of a: orange seed

Team blue/pink/green: Team healthy. Husband really wants a boy and I am feeling girl! After two miscarriages back to back in 2021, we are just praying that God will bless us with a healthy baby. ❤🌈🌈👶🙏

Upcoming Appointments: 9/6 to check my HCG levels. Doc has me under a microscope making sure my numbers look good. The first 2 sets I more than doubled in 72 hours, but in 48 hours only went up 140 "points." Waiting to hear from OB on if he is concerned. My nurse didn't act like she was too worried.

How are you feeling?: sore boobs/nipples, frequent urination, poor sleeping, emotional rollercoaster, body temperature fluctuations, gassy, craving strawberry milk and cherry flavored candy, REALLY thirsty! All of these symptoms fluctuate.

Rants/Raves: I hate having so much bloodwork and having to wait FOREVER for my results. I have really bad anxiety, and I hate feeling like an experiment and lab rat. I'm on progesterone suppositories and that's SUPER uncomfortable, but I am trying to keep a positive mindset and trust in Jesus to get me through. 🙏

Questions: Anyone else not double in 48 hours but instead 72? That's been my pattern so far.

Ready for fall! Husband and I already put up our fall decor! ❤🍂🍁🌾
