Re: Weekly Check-in 12/26: EDD anytime in June!
2nd boy!
Baby is the size of a jar of nutella I guess. Lol. This app is seriously all over with its sizing.
Next appt is January 13th.
Feeling better, I haven't vomited in awhile. A little bit of nausea here and there. Still really tired and lazy, however I made it to the gym today for the first time in weeks!!
We are planning a family all inclusive to Mexico in December when baby number 2 is around 6 months. Looking forward to that, plus my maternity leave!! Having the whole summer off is going to be incredible for me. I really look forward to that. I'll have my two boys home with me all summer doing all the gardening, canning, activities I love.
Estimated Due Date / Weeks + Days:
January 12 for prenatal and January 17 for anatomy scan but I'm thinking about going in for an extra growth scan this week.
We had such a wonderful Christmas yesterday 🎄 I wasn't sure how my two year old would do but he was so happy all day and he loved all his gifts!
Hopefully we find and buy a house 🥺 also my yearly garden that I grow with my son, he's been trying to dig in my houseplant pots for weeks, he wasn't ready for autumn to end 😞
Estimated Due Date / Weeks + Days:
Having the Summer off with DS and DD as a new family of 5!
I've tried acupuncture and chiropractic work and neither help so I hope for your sake it doesn't get severe 🤞🏻

Our whole family was so so sick for ages, and coughing has been triggering so much puking for me. Buuut as those symptoms are clearing up I’m noticing that that’s my main trigger for nausea now and I’m actually feeling a lot closer to normal. Still puking most mornings and still have a ton of aversions and a low appetite, but I see real improvement and I can enjoy food finally. Certain foods.
My husband works from home and I was resting next to him during a meeting with his boss this morning. He’s had this job a few months and it’s in the IT field which is a huge career switch for him from teaching music! Vastly different.
Growing tomatoes! Last year was my first gardening experience ever, and now I’m learning to grow a couple things inside in pots year round, and I’ll also put a few tomatoes outside later this year. I’m excited, and just learning slowly so it’s not too much in this season. I’m obsessed with how many varieties you can find of things that you wouldn’t know existed unless you buy the seeds yourself and grow them. It’s quite the rabbit hole. 😍
Also trying to eat is hard enough when pregnant, that sounds so frustrating!!
My second kid is allergic to dairy, eggs, and peanut, and while that’s only 3 things it amazes me how much it cuts out. Dietary restrictions are really frustrating!
@bridgettetheboxer I need to get a move on with hiring a doula too but I don't even know where to hire one at with moving so up in the air.

Questions:
GTKY: what are you looking forward to in 2023 (in addition to your June babe!)? I am looking forward to starting the baby’s room. We are waiting until after the anatomy scan which should be in about 3 weeks with my mfm. Also looking forward to making the most of our last 5 months as a family of 3 and spending extra time with our daughter who has been an only child for the last 13 years.
