EDD/Weeks+Days: 4/23 - 11 weeks 1 day
Baby is the size of: Plum or a large strawberry depending on the app
Team blue/pink/green: Team green till delivery!
Upcoming Appointments: NT/NIPT 10/11 - which after last weeks super disappointing appointment of having not even gotten a doppler for h/b I am super anxious for, its been a long time since our confirmation appointments. 
How are you feeling?: Headaches started more this week but exhaustion has been slightly easing. 
Rants/Raves: Rant - its cold & wet here and has been raining for days in NJ (Ian remnants). I was on the beach 10 days ago in a bathing suit and today I'm in a sweater & jeans... BOO.
GTKY: What is the last concert you attended? It's actually been since pre-Covid. My husband surprised me with tickets to a small Brett Eldridge concert in AC. We were supposed to attend Kenny Chesney's tour this summer but we had bought the tickets pre-covid and the new date no longer worked for us... we are big country music fans so those are really the only concerts we attend.

EDD/Weeks+Days: 4/19, 11w5d
Baby is the size of: macaron
Team blue/pink/green: green
Upcoming Appointments: next week 10/12. Our family and most friends know at this point, thinking we will probably announce to SM sometime after that appointment 
How are you feeling?: Like I got hit by a truck bc we were in Austin all weekend and acting like we were 21 years old again (just minus the drinking for me 🤪)
Rants/Raves: Rave-My husband and I just took our first adults-only trip since becoming parents. We met up with college friends in Austin for one of our friends wedding. We had such a blast, it was great seeing everyone and I'm so thankful my MIL was willing to watch our son for 4 days so we could go!
GTKY: What is the last concert you attended? Oh geez....Darius Rucker in 2015? My husband and I also went to ACL in 2016 and CMA fest in 2017 but I don't remember anyone that we saw

FTM/STM/TTM+: second time mom 
EDD/Weeks+Days: 11 weeks 5 days, due 4/19
Baby is the size of: a macaron (today!)
Team blue/pink/green: still not sure! Symptoms have been similar to what I had with my son, just more nausea and boobs are way more sore! 
Upcoming Appointments: had an appt last week, got to hear the heartbeat and see baby on the portable ultrasound machine. I was THRILLED because I hadn’t seen baby since 5w6d. I have my first trimester ultrasound next week and can. not. wait. 
How are you feeling?: all around pretty good! My pregnancy symptoms are never really bad (thank goodness!) but that can also cause some anxiety too. 
Rants/Raves: bloating is the worst. Some days I look & feel so pregnant because of the bloating. 
GTKY: What is the last concert you attended? We are big fans of The Avett Brothers (our golden is named Avett) and we attended their New Year’s Eve concert last year!

FTM/STM/TTM+: FTM
EDD/Weeks+Days: 4/9; 13w1d
Baby is the size of: Jalapeño!
Team blue/pink/green: Healthy first and foremost! Secretly hoping for a girl, and anxiously awaiting NIPT results...
Upcoming Appointments: Not until 10/25, when I get to take an early GD test Apparently this OB routinely tests everyone at both 16w and 26w 
How are you feeling?: Grateful that my nausea seems to have mostly dissipated, but I'm soooooo achy the last few days. Sadly, my ability to continue working my horses might already be more limited than I had hoped 
Raves: We got to hear little one's heartbeat this past Friday for the first time It was SUCH a relief to hear, especially having been so sick the week prior....
Rants: Shopping for anything maternity around here is nonexistent....constantly ordering/returning things via Amazon hoping for the perfect fit is getting....annoying. Fingers crossed this next order of bras will actually fit well. I just want to support my giant ta-ta's!
GTKY: What is the last concert you attended? Oooof. It's been so long it's hard to remember at this point LOL. I think It would've had to have been something 5+ years ago with my ex.....


......and apparently baby brain must be setting in, cause I totally forgot I was Group 2

EDD/Weeks+Days: 4/29 10w2d
Baby is the size of: strawberry
Team blue/pink/green: Green ATM, but we'll see.
Upcoming Appointments: Next appointment is 10/19 for labs, including NIPT
How are you feeling?: Mentally, weird after my bleeding a few days ago. But thankfully nothing else has happened since then. Physically, my morning sickness is getting a little worse lately, and my heartburn is much worse than it was last pregnancy.
Rants/Raves: My parents are spending the night with us tomorrow evening. I'm stressed about having house guests in our tiny house for the first time, but we'll make it work. It's just one night.
GTKY: What is the last concert you attended? I went with my husband and son to see Dispatch a few weeks ago. And about 2 months ago, we all 3 went to see Coheed and Cambria. It was just before my son's 1st birthday, and was his first concert.

@shoogapoff I'm so intrigued by the tiny house life! My husband and I talked about it a few years back but ultimately decided it wasn't for us, as our 100+lb dog takes up way too much room 🤣

@shoogapoff I love that your kiddo has already had their first concert! Our sons was last summer when he was almost 1.5. One of my all time favorite memories

FTM/STM/TTM+: FTM!
EDD/Weeks+Days: 11w1d
Baby is the size of: lime
Team blue/pink/green: We want a healthy baby but I feel like I am carrying a boy
Upcoming Appointments: NIPT testing next week
How are you feeling?: Nauseous and downright exhausted. My job was super busy last week so I worked up to 16 hours every day and haven't really rested up yet
Rants/Raves: we told all our family and friends last week! Which was exciting however now everyyyyyyyone is asking if we want a gender reveal and trying to pressure us into it. It really isn't our thing and we have been adamant about it but they keep pushing us to do it. It's super annoying 
GTKY: What is the last concert you attended? The Stadium Tour in August! So Poison, Joan Jett, Motley Crue and Def Leppard. It was an amazing show, I love music and concert going and it was sooooo much fun.

@iiirene That is so cute! Such a fun experience! Ours was at an outdoor venue like that as well, which made me feel better about noise levels, even with the headphones on.

FTM/STM/TTM+: #3

EDD/Weeks+Days: 4/18, 12w1d

Baby is the size of: plum

Team blue/pink/green: green, but already feeling the desire to cave

Upcoming Appointments: just had my ultrasound, waiting for the OB for 12 weeks 

How are you feeling?: Emotionally relieved, I have been worrying about EVERYTHING this time, from loss to growing enough to getting enough blood flow to my uterus every time I wake up on my back! Physically, slightly less nausea and significantly less heartburn. Hopefully we got that out of the system!

Rants/Raves:

GTKY: What is the last concert you attended? I cannot remember! I don't have the best taste in music, definitely not the same as my husband, so we aren't concert people.
